A Scotch firm is manufacturing an
artificial stone whi;h is said to stand
every test and to BIZ imperyious to all
yagaries of the weather The process
is a simple one, an6 the ingredients of
the stone, chiefly lime and sand, are
not expensive commodities, so that it
is believed that the artificial product
will be able to compete with the real
The lime and sand, having been thor
oughly incorporated, are passed into
molding boxes, which may be of any
convenient size or shape, and these are
placed within the converter. Water at
high pressure and having a high tenn
peratuTe is then pumped into the con-
yerter to cause the necessary chemical
union between the lime and sand and
to a temperature Of about 400 degrees
Fahrenheit by the action of superheat-
ed steam. In about thirty hours the
surplus water is run off, but the heat
is continued, in order to remove mois-
ture from the molding boxes, for an
other nineteen hours. The boxes are
then removed from the converter and
the stone within them is practically
ready for use.
Experiments are now in progress
from which II is hoped that other pro-
ducts of natures laboratory, such as
slate and marble, will presently be
successfully Initiated.

The HOecake is Fast Disappearing
From Southern Tables.

The Hoecake is Fast Disappearing
From Southern Tables.
Most middle-aged persons remembers
well when corn bread was served upon
nearly all tables in the south and west
at least twice day. Sometimes it APP
peared in the form Of "hoecake" or
batter bread" and again in "pones"
1t was par excellence the bread Of the
negro, and every man who served in
the Confederate army was also a full
graduate in the use of 1t. Now the
darkies eschew it where wheat bread is
to be obtained, and upon the tables Of
thousands Of southern and western
whites it never appears at all, while
others continue to use it only for din
ner.
Now, why is this? Surely corn meal
is as it ever was Those who sincerely,
but probably mistakenly, believe that
underground" meal is better than the
product of mills turned by steam can
always find a supply of that in most
cities, and it is common enough in the
country. There is no trouble about the
meal but we doubt whether the art OF
cooking it has been preserved. The
high-toned colored damsels who are
turned out by our public schools are
not the adopts that our old Aunt Di-
nahs and Aunt Peggys were. No self
respecting pan of dough would be con-
jured into shape by such unskilled
hands. And then we may seriously
doubt whether corn bread can be cook
ed in a stove as we'll as in an open fire.
place.
The Indians laid their doughcakes
between layers of forest leaves or upon
the hard ground and cooked them in
the hot ashes. Hence lash cake" very
luscious product, indeed, when one has
whetted his appetite for it by a long
days hunting. The hoecake was so
called because it was originally baked
upon hOe-that eyer-ready and useful
instrument of agriculture which is to
be found upon every plantation. But
later on cooking utensils were manu-
featured which took the place of the
humble hoe. So, too, shingles were
used whereupOn to place the dough
while it went through the process Of
becoming a well-dOne ash cake.
