Rules for Candy=Making.
Mrs. Rorer's Receipe for Home Made Chris
lnnfertinns

Mrs. Rorer's Receipe for Home-Made Christ
mas Connections.
Mrs. S. 7. Rorer tells how to make
candies at home for the holidays in the
Christmas Ladies' Home Journal, and
gives the following rules, which insure
the success of the work: "Never stir the
sugar and water after the sugar has dis
solved. Wipe down constantly the
granules forming on the side of the sauce
pan. Do not shake nor move the sauce
pan while the syrup is boiling. AS soon
as the sugar begins to boil watch it care
fully, having in your hand bowl of ice
water, so that you may try the syrup
almost constantly. Have everything in
readiness before beginning. If the sugar
grains use it for old fashioned cream
candy or sugar taffy. 1t cannot be used
for fondant. Use only the best granulat-
ed sugar for boiling, and confectioners'
xxx for kneading. If your fondant
grains without apparent cause you may
have boiled it little too long. A few
drops of lemon juice or little cream of
tarter will prevent this. Fondant is the
soft mixture which forms both the inside
of the French candies and the material
in which they are dipped, and it is to OBJ
tain this that the sugar is boiled.
''After the sugar has reached the soft
ball., semi-hard condition, it must be
poured carefully into a large meat-plate
Or on marble slab. Do not scrape the
saucepan or you will granulate the syrup.
Make your fondant one day and make it
up into candy the next. Never melt
fondant by placing the saucepan immed-
lately on the stove. Prevent the danger
OF scorching by standing the pan contain
ing it in basin of water. If the melted
fondant is too thick add water most
cautiously, drop at time. A half tea
spoonful more than is necessary will ruin
the whole. To cool candy place it in "a
cool, dry place. To keep candy put it be-
tween layers of waxed paper in tin boxes.
If the day is bright and clear the sugar
loses its sickness quickly, therefore
select fine day for your candy making. -

The State Dairy Conference.

Meeting of the Maine Board of Agriculture.
In connection with the Maine State dairy
conference which began in Bangor Dec.
1st, the Maine Board of Agriculture met
to discuss various matters pertaining to
the interests of the farmers. The princi-
pal discussion was on the workings of the
law passed by the last Legislature regard
ing the inspection of feeds and seeds, over
which there was deal of discussion at
the time.
Prof. Woods of the Maine Experiment
station reported what had been done in
general way and others stated that there
seemed to be general disposition on the
part of the dealers to comply with the law,
and that it is working we'll so far Prof.
Woods stated that the makers of cotton
seed meal have now found something to
take the color out of the husks so that
they can be ground in with the meal and
not be recognized except by an analy sis.
Until the passing of this law the black
husks being ground in were easily recog-
niZed.
At the State dairy conference Thursday
morning farmers were present from dis
tant points and the exhibits were large
The meeting was called to order by J. w.
Dudley, who introduced Chas. S. Pearl,
president of the Bangor Board of Trade,
who extended the welcome of the city,
VIM. II. Moody of Liberty, vice president
of the board, responded.
After the opening exercises, Prof. G.
M. Gowell of the University Of Maine
gave a brief talk upon some of the condi-
tions of dairy work during the past year.
Secretary McKeen spoke upon the general
outlook for the dairy industry of Maine
for 1898.
Maine leads the Union in this new law
and the Board of Agriculture will take
steps to have it strictly enforced. There
have been so far no prosecutions, but
dealers selling adulterated seeds will be
hereafter prosecuted All members of the
board were present except B. F. Briggs
of Auburn, who was detained by illness.
At the afternoon session the speaker
was Major Henry E. Alvord, chief of the
dairy division of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. He said: ''Do
not seek foreign markets when you have
good market at home" He gave sta
tistics of the the dairy business and of
the conditions abroad, which are unlike
those here. 1t was a highly instructive
address.
At the evening session, practical talks
were made by W. G. Hunton of Readfield; :;
E: E. Light of Union; Mr.. King of
Charleston; Major Alvord of Washington,
D. c.; Secretary McKeen of the State
Board of Agriculture, and Hon. L. A.

A Lecture by Col. w. II. Fogler.

The first of series of military lectures
given by the Tillson Light Infantry of
Rockland was delivered last week by Col.
W. H. Fogler. His subject was "The
Duties and Responsibility of the Military
Companies of the United States" The
Rockland Star says: ''Col. Fogler began
his lecture by explaining what the militia
was and its duties. He then explained
the ancient militia in England, and from
that he went on to tell of the first mill
tary companies in this country and gave
some of the first laws that were passed
concerning the same. He gave the COM
pany to understand that the militia was a
government inst tuition and not State
institution. He further impressed upon
their minds that they helped to make up
the nations militia and that it was some
thing to be proud of. He told of the
many duties and responsible ties that was
placed upon each military company in
the United States, and not only the COM
pany but each individual that helped to
make up the company. During the whole
lecture he explained many points of mill
tary law that could not help being bene-
fetal to all who heard him.

Bible Condensed to one Inch.

An eccentric Londoner Richard Webb,
has completed machine for microscopic
writing. He asserts that with it he can
write the entire contents of the Bible
four times in space one inch square. He
has succeeded in writing the Lord S
Prayer on glass in space one-hundredth
of an inch wide by one -fftieth of an inch
long, or about the size of the "period''
at the end of this sentence.
Ten years ago MI. Webb set to work to
break all records for minute penmanship.
He soon found that mechanical aid was
necessary and devised a contrivance which
diminished the scope without altering the
character of the movements of the pen.
The result is marvel of mechanical skill.
The machine is operated by handle re-
sembling pen, which is held in the hand
and used as an ordinary pen. The motion
given to this handle is transmitted
through numerous wheels and levers un-
til it operates the writing point, which is
a diamond SO small as to be invisible to the
naked eye.

Maine and Her Resources.

WINTERPoRT, Nov. 26, 1897. After
five years absence in other lands, 1 return
ed to my native State from choice because
/ believed in her future. l have been in
the West seven times since, from the
great lakes of the North, to the Gulf of
Mexico, in Louisiana and Texas, each re-
turn liking Maine better. Slowed away
in one corner Of the Union with her thous-
and and more lakes, natural fountains,
storing force for her unrivalled water
power and future greatness.
Her glacier secured granite hills and
bountiful slate quarries furnish lasting
building material to give labor and shelter
to man. Her citizens should be thankful
that their lot is cast in this land, situated
in the midst of the great dairy belt, the
climate in which about all the great cities
of the earth are situated; where the men
of intelligence and ambition dwell, those
who control and govern the nations of the
earth. Grasses, growing almost spontan-
Gus, climbing the top of our highest hills,
and across our deepest valleys, furnish
the cheapest and healthiest known food
for the dairy.
One word regarding the food and care
of the dairy. When one has a good but
ter COW, only known by testing, then
care and kindness give reward. Be
kind to them and they will galdly give
the golden liquid. Do not worry them
with dogs or sticks. Neither expose them
to wet or cold. They will surely punish
you in the bucket and pocket IL you do;
give them good nourshing food. Remem-
Der when feeding, that largest share they
consume goes to sustain life and heat, and
it is only what they consume over and
above that amount that pays for all labor,
shelter and total amount of food consumed.
Never try to see how cheap one can
winter, but rather see how much one can
make them eat and eat clean. When one
starts into dairying, be sure and start
right.
Penny wise and pound foolish viii
never do in dairying. Go to some noted
man; learn how he handles his milk and
markets the same. He will gladly give
his experience. No successful dairy man
is mean with man or beast. Go in with a
will and determination to succeed and in
crease your herd. Do not buy implements
too small, but buy for future use. Re-
member the amount of food that makes a
pound of five cent beef will make pound
of twenty cent butter. Four hundred per
cent. loss is hard on the poor farmers.
He that goes into dairying in this State
with will can rest assured that the great
laws of the Universe will reward his
labors. D. Dyer, in Turf Farm and Home.

Destructive to MackereI.

1t was about 10 years ago that small
mackerel, or ''tinkers," as they were
called, We're very plentiful off the coast OF
Maine. When they were of fair size
they were caught and sold for food, some
times as fresh fish, but mostly as canned.
OF late years, they have not been plenti :
full, and those that We're caught We're not fit
for food. Cooked in cans, they become a
soft, ,unpalatable mess Packers soon found
this out and let them alone. These fish
have not been plentiful in the vicinity of
Casco bay, but have appeared to the east
ward in considerable numbers, and have
been sold largely for bait to the fisher
men. 1t is too bad thus to destroy these
young fish that next season will return and
be of considerable value; for CLAIMS and
other fish can be had in abundance for the
same purpose. PORTLAND Press.
