CORN FOR WINTER.
Various Ways Of Preparing II for Use
During the Cold
Season.

There are two ways in which corn is
prepared in the household for use
which are eminently successful. 1t is
hardly wise for anyone to attempt to
can corn at home. as it requires to be
cooked with greater heat than boiling
water. Occasionally canned corn
keeps where it is put up at home, but
such cases are exceptional and not
he rule.
Old-fashioned dried corn was always
excellent, as is the hulled corn which
armers prepare, when it is properly
made. We publish three rules fur
nished by correspondents. The follow
ing recipe is for drying sweet corn in
The old-fashioned manner; THE corn
should be taken when just suitable for
eating and boiled ten or fifteen min
utes-long enough to set the milk.
When cool take a sharp knife and cut
through every row of kernels (they
dry sooner and soak more easily when
used). then shave the corn of the cob,
spread it on plates near the stove or
in the heating closet and let it dry,
being careful not to let il brown. 1t
viii cry in two or three days. Put the
corn in glass jars and IT will keep for
two years. When you wish to use it
soak it in warm water for couple of
hours, then boil in milk, adding little
butter.
A Pennsylvania housekeeper sends
thcfollowing recipes, which are slight
ly different: select fresh ears when
they are sufficiently ripe for the table,
preferably those YOU can pick from
the stalk. Free them from husk and
silk, and then with a thin bladed knife
cut the grains from the cob Spread
thinly on plates and put in n moderate
~ warm oven. Stir frequently until
dried. 1t will require from "a to 6
hours to complete drying.
''Or with a sharp knife, after prepar-
ing as before, split each row Of kernels
lengthwise of the ear and gently press
out the milky pulp. Spread on plates
and proceed as before. To be genuine,
old-fashioned dried corn it should be
prepared Immediately after plucling
from the stalk. and never cooked be-
fore cutting from the cob."-N. Y.

they were able to edify an audience.
Many OF the silent sufferers during the
eight days Of continuous oratory offered
inaudible remembrance to the program
committee. 1t is hoped that the new
one will apply some other basis Of selec-
ton Position and wealth are enviable
possessions and it is interesting to see
those who have been presented at birth
with these gifte. But very short time
is sufficient to satisfy curiosity. II the
program committee would limit those
who possess no other requisites to a
public appearance to five minutes the
criticism Of the weeks performance
would be very much leesened. The
sessions OF real value to club women
were those devoted to the methods Of club
work. study, and organization and 10 in
dustrial subjects and the possibilities Of
the clubs stimulating legislation in re.
gard to child labor and the regulation
of factories. The literary evening pro-
vided by Miss Repplier and Miss Stuart
was q needed recreation and return to
literature per &c. But the clubs do not
exist for literature or art, or even for
sociability between states and sections.
The organization exists to make the influ-
ence Of women felt politically. They have
been working single handed long enough
and have accomplished little in COMPARE
son to the expenditure Of energy. The
efforts Of those speakers who directed
the attention OF the convention to the real
purpose Of the assembly will be re.
Warded.
The concert given by Miss Villa Whit
ney White assisted by Miss Muldoon
and Miss Dillingham; was a lecture on
the folk songs Of America illustrated by
songs. Miss White sung the melodies
OF the North American Indians and
made them ineligible. Miss Muldoon
has collection Of negro songs which
she has made herself by taking down
the music rs they sung it. She SINCE
them with minute exactnese. Miss
Whites treatment of the music Of
America was scholarly. She has SO
sweet and sympathetic voice that Ba
Ba Black Sheep under her treatment
would become artistic. The concert
was in strange harmony with the work
Of unifying the efforts OF widely separ-
ated people.

THE BIENNIAL.
The General Federation OF Women's
Clubs met in Denver from June q to
June q inclusive. The meeting was
called 10 order by Mrs. Henrotin on
Wednesday morning. June q. After .
few graceful remarks she introduced the
governor OF Colorado Alva Adams, who
made one Of the best speeches ever de-
liveeed by man to nearly 1900 women.
Il was neither patronizing. stilted nor
pedantic. 1t was friendly and altogether
without the patronizing jocoseness most
politicians consider the correct key for .
speech to women. He was elected, 90
he said, by the women. and he spoke to
them, not with the exaggerated courtesy
Of Q southerper, nor with the patroniz-
ing federation Of an eastern man whose
ideas Of the mind and inslienable rights
oe women have not progressed beyond the
Miltonic conception. but he spoke like q
western man to comrades whom he cher
ishes and respects. He told rs many
things al women like to hear from 4
man aud especially q governor. He is
very clever indeed, and il he can be a.
happy always in fitting speech to an &C.
casion and the competition Of an audi.
ence. he can get the woman's vote in
Colorado or anywhere else that they
have IL to give. The mayor Of Denver
then presented the freedom Of the city

president Of the state federation Of Colo
rado. welcomed the general federation
By proxy. Then Mrs. s. s. Plat, presi-
