TIE LINEN OUTFIT.
Here Is an Economical and Handy
Buying List for n Small
Household.

Given cottage or small apartment,
self-help and guestroom-required
to find amounts of table linen and bed
ding are absolutely necessary for the
first year in the new home.
Each bed should have for it's outfit
three pairs of pillow cases for it's
square pillows; two pairs of sheets,
which measure a full yard more than
the length of the mattress, to insure
undisturbed and protected covers;
two white spreads, of quality easily
laundered and light in weight, and two
pairs of large all-wool blankets, of
which one pair should be bound sepa-
rately-these constitute the sole es-
sentials. To these may be added a
homemade quilt and comfortable.
The table linen must include best
cloth for special occasions, three real
~ good ones for general use, and two
dozen napkins that will not shed lint
OF towels there is theoretically no
limit to the needed variety. Practical
ly, however, there are only few that
are absolutely indispensable. One
dozen hemstitched huck for bedroom
use, one dozen checked linen for china
and one dozen crash for the kitchen,
all made in yard lengths, besides three
roller towels 2h yards long, will easily
supply the ordinary demand under the
conditions imposed.
Of course, sickness, lavish hospital
ity or even delayed weekly wash day
would necessitate large supply in
each case. A maxim profitably OBJ
served by successful housekeeper is
worth passing on for considera ton in
this connection: Expense for essen
tials only, plus remunerative labor,
equals thrift
With this in mind, one can easily de-
termine how much can or must be
added to the supply On hand, when the
thoughts of thrifty housewives turn
toward the linen closet. Usually one
pair of sheets and two pairs of pillow
cases are sufficient for the annual re-
plenishing. Two ablecloths, one dozen
napkins and one-third the towel list
added each year will insure ample COM
fort under ordinary conditions and the
added joy of conscious economy

harbor to the island chain beyond.
Here, during the phenomenon of sun
rise, literally all the possible lights and
shades of nature are seen marching in
gorgeous procession over land and sea,
to which superb display both elements
lend themselves in a perfect gamut of
perspective gradations- may so de-
scribe it. Three to five hundred feet
higher and the spectator has the en-
tire panorama of the Virgins spread
out before, behind and on either hand.
Here is a field, at least, for the enter
prising Photographic fiend who is to-
day tramping to the ends of the earth
for "subjects.''
Another interesting, and far more
important. feature of the Virgin is

which it would require an exclusive
letter (and more) to deal with exhaust
lively, is the thermal and medicinal
springs that seem-according to the ac-
counts of the natives-to have come
into existence after the great earth
quakes. So far as I am aware, they
have not been scientifically investigat-
ed. They certainly were not up to
1885. when I visited the islands. The
natives claim that these "nasty wa
ters," used both externally and inter-
nally, have, in their experience,
wrought miraculous cures fer all sorts
of ailments to which tropical flesh is
heir; notably rheumatism, malarial
pains, sprains, toothache, etc., bowel
complaints, shortness of breath, sore
eyes and dozen other troubles that

of the scientific investigator. I should
think. -

islands lie right toutside the back door OF

ton, Puerto Rico, where they can be

ed at trifing cost and little trouble.

CORN FOR WINTER.
Various Ways of Preparing 1t for Use
During the Cold
Season,

There are two ways in which corn is
which are eminently successful. It 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
the rule.
Old-fashioned dried corn was always
excellent, as is the hulled corn which
farmers 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 off the cob
spread it on plates near the stove or
in the heating closet and let it dry
being careful not to let it brown. It
will dry in two or three days. Put the
corn in glass jars and it will keep fo1
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
the following 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 thin-bladed knife
cut the grains from the cob. Spread
thinly on plates and put in a moderate.
ly warm oven. Stir frequently until
dried. 1t will require from "a to {
hours to complete drying.
''Or with 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 plucking
from the stalk, and never cooked be-
fore cutting from the cob."-N. Y.

belonged to Spain, but as she could

England and Denmark set about doing
it for her-and, driving out the pi-
rates, hoisted their respective flags
and took possession. Tortola proved a
rich acquisition for England, being a
first-class sugar island in those days
of high prices and slave labor, and it
soon became fourishing colony,
whilst it's neighbor, St. Thomas, with
it's n1atchless harbor, although eco
nomically worthless, became the en-
trepot of the Lesser Antilles and a
rival of Port Royal.
The subsequent history of these is
lands is that of the West Indies. Only
perhaps, that their .decadence and
ruin has been both more precipitate
and more complete. If to-day St.

vegetation ''from the center all rounC

hand of decay has been laid heavily or
the land, and the shadow of desolatio
covers it as a cloud. The fields are

WILSON'S PET HOBBY. J
Wants Farmers Appointed Consuls
and Diplomatic Agents.
Why Men Versed In Agricultural
Affairs Should Be Sent Abroad
by the Government, Espe-

Especial Washington Letter.1

l0peC1dl washington AeLCer.J
"Your people will undoubtedly be in
terested in knowing that we are con-
stantly trying to send dairy products
into the markets of Europe" said the
secretary of agriculture in his office
room the other day.
"There is one matter of vast impor-
tance which the people ought to know.
propose to keep hammering away at
this one idea during my entire term
of office in order to accomplish the re-
suit. If can do so that one achieve
ment will be sufficient to satisfy me
that my term of office has not been in
vain.
Every foreign government has here
at this capital an agent who is thor
oughly informed on agricultural af-
fairs. Everything that we do is re-
porter by these agents to their gov
ernments, so that they know what we
are doing as we'll IS we know ourselves
For example, when our fruit entered
Germany, and the San Jose scale was
discovered, all they had to do in Ber-
lin was to turn to a copy of a bulletin
issued by this department, which is
on file in Berlin, and there they could
learn all about it.
'Our amba ssadors, ministers and
consuls are bright and capable men.
We send abroad only the best men for
diplomatic positions. But not one of
the corps knows anything about agri-
culture and agricultural affairs.
Therefore, it is almost impossible for
this country to have definite informa-
tion concerning the agric cultural stand
ing and development of other coun-
tries, although they know all about
us.
"My proposition is that we shall
have agricultural agents at the cap
itals of all the leading countries of
the world. These agents should be
graduates of our state agricultural
colleges, who are practical farmers,
and who have had at least ten years ex-
