DEAR MR. BENNETT
| was much interested in the
paragraph in your last weeks
paper, in which you state that IT
would take 9,523,57l,6 ,603 bushels OF
wheat allowing one million grains
to each bushel. to place them on
tho squares OF a checker board'
by puttipg one grain on the first
square, two grains on the second
square. four on the third and thus
doubling the number OF grams
each time until the ga squares
were covered; and also that 1t
would take 1s,4G6 years for the
limited States to raise the wheat,
and you advise some one to get the
wheat and try it.
Pa told me 1 might try 1t and
sent me to Mr. Robinson's store
with a dinner pail to get the wheat
Mr.. Robinson took piece OF paper
and after figuring for about a half

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Chatting Dish cookery-A Handy Shoe
Button Bas-A Good Tur-
key Dressing.

The criticism is sometimes made that
the chatting dish is available only for a
very limited range of cookery. Its CON
venience is appreciated. its social as
vantages and TIE never waning interest
with which a company of eongenisl
spirits gather about the board and
watch the preparation of the viands Of
which they are soon to partake But,
oh, Its limitations limitations +"
exelaim the same people. as though
torsooth, some objection must be raised
AGAINST the interesting rehabilitation of
this charming custom
Asked to specify the particular branch
of cookery in which the chatting dish
fails. the critic might very likely begin
at the top of an ordinary menu and ex-
claim. Whoever tasted chatting dish
soupr' Now, it is just as well 10 can
didly admit that the preparation Of
soups and similar delicacies is a neglect
ed branch of chatting dish possibilities.
but we are not willing to admit any
thing beyond In point of fact, soups,
stews, sauces and gravies may be pre-
pared IN the most satisfactory way il
the chatting dish up To the limit of its
capacity.
j. is not necessary that the long pc
riod of simmering and stewing which
many of these viands require should
actually be performed upon the chatting
dish Yet this is practicable and the
result most pleasing, though perhaps
little expensive. The modern canned
soups present delightful variety of
material, ready to the hand of the host
ess. With all of these go full instruc-
tons for their preparation and serving.
The housewife has only to consider the
difference in fuel and apparatus at her
command. and, lol she is prepared at
short notice to serve most refreshing
soup of any desired flavor adequate for
the appetites of several guests. Special
recipes need not be given, the process
will be found so well explained ON each
and every can
Other material readily suggests it
self. The soup may be very simple or
very elaborate, but if to be served in
connection with other viands the for
mer is to be preferred. Mrs. Arthur
