ifest. Things moved under her direc-
ton. Few farmers can operate hired
help to better advantage. Everything
runs like clockwork. She looks after
all her business matters in person,
watches the markets. directs the plant
ing, the cultivation and the harvest. In
fact, she is the absolute monarch of her
large farm and all her business affairs.
One of the most remarkable young
women of Kansas is Miss Leah A.
Knisely, who farms 160 acres near In
dustry, Dickerson County. She per
forms the entire work of her farm
without the assistance of a man. Miss
Knisely is 2S years old and was
brought up on the farm where she now
resides. In recent years she has been
the main support of widowed mother.
About five years ago Miss Knisely took
active management of the farm. Her
health was poor, but farm work proved
of great benefit to her. and she says ii
would now he impossible for her to
hold her good health IL she did not re-
main outdoors constantly. This year
she had eighty acres of fine corn. Then
she had 1.250 bushels of wheat. She
not only plowed the ground for this
wheat. hut she sowed the grain, cult
waited it herself and shocked the corn.
She can husk corn with any man in
Dickinson County. In addition to rails
ing q big wheat and corn crop this
year, Miss Kisely raised several acres
Of oats, took care of about % head of
cattle, attended to the little garden,
looked after her fruit trees and did
all the work connected with the farm.
The whole county admires her pluck,
and the neighbors admit that she can
give any of the men pointers on how
to run a Kansas farm profitably.
Mrs. Jane Peterson is another pros
Porous farmer She owns a good farm
near Pleasanton, Linn County For
five years before his death, in 1893. her
husband was an invalid. During all
this time and since Mrs. Peterson has
managed the farm and made money
every year. She is industrious and is an
excellent financier. Her farm is well
improved. Mrs. Peterson's principal
source of income is from the sale of
milk to the creamery and from hogs,
which, are raised and prepared for the
market. Mrs. Peterson Is healthy and
strong. and drives the best teams In
Linn County.
Eight years ago General w. r.
Brown. who owned 200 acres of land in
Independence. died. leaving his widow
alone. She took up the thread of farm
work and has successfully conducted
the estate. Mrs. Brown has made
wheat growing speciality, the greater
part of her land being rich bottom. The
upland she has made very profitable
for dairy farming and the grazing of
stock of the adjacent town of Inde-
pendence. but she grows corn, clover
and millet. as the seasons dictate.

Variety OF Uses for the Pungent

Green peppers suggest all sorts Of
good things to the housekeeper and
makes her sigh that she cannot keep
this most useful vegetable within reach
the year round. Combined with almost
any leftover" the green pepper pos
sesses possibilities for an unlimited
number Of appetizing dishes. If the
small ends are cut off and the seeds re-
moved, the peppers may be filled with
creamed salmon or creamed chicken
and served hot for luncheon, or they
may be filed with bits of celery or cab
bage, mixed with mayonnaise, chilled
and served as a salad on lettuce leaves.
They may also be cut into rather large
bits, fried in olive oil and served with
chicken as vegetable, or, cut very
small, may be added to chicken mince,

WOMEN ON THE FARM
HOW THEY PRACTICE AGRICULTURE
WITHOUT THE AID OF MANI

Those Who Are Successful in One
s ate-Stories That Teacn a Les
son Of Pluck aud Independence
for Women.
In every one of the 105 counties OF
and operated by women without the
aid of men. The owners are women
of pluck and perseverance. who have
overcome all the difficulties that con-
front the farmers of the West, ana III
most instances their labors are reward
ed with complete success.
The story Of Mrs. Anna Lembaeh.
Neosho County's woman farmer. is full
If interest. Mrs. Lembach lives four
miles northwest of Erie. She has a
comfortable home, a quarter section OF
excellent land and money at interest.
All this rpresents the saving, scrimping
thrift and foresight of twelve years as
a woman farmer. Mr.. Lembach died
in 1887. When his widow came to take
stock of his available assets she found
that they were a stout heart and a
quarter section of partially raw land.
There was a mortgage of Sl,IOO on
the farm and other obligations aggre-
eating more than $500. In the house
were six little children, the eldest boy
of IL years. Then 1t was that Mrs.
I.embach put her hand literally to the
pillow, and until her children grew in
to manhood and womanhood, she was
her own hired man and her own maid
of-all-work. She plowed and planted,
sowed and reaped, not by proxy, but
with her own hands. She kept her chill
dren in school. comfortably clothed and
fed, and did double stint every work
day of her life. She attended strictly
TO the duties of her farm, and in seven
years the mortgage was grim recollee-
ton. The mountain of debt had disap-
peared from her perspective. She still
manages the farm on which she ac-
cumulated $4,000, practically unaid-
ed. in twelve years. But she takes life
easier now. the burden has grown light
in the carrying.
1t Is doubtful If there is more sue
cessful woman operating large farm
in Kansas than Mrs. Seretta Bucher,
who owns and personally manages a
farm of 450 acres near Douglass, in
Butler County. Nine years ago, after
a successful period of seven years in
Kansas farming. Mr.. Butcher died. His
widow Immediately took upon herself

Kitchen Hints.

A plateful of odd bits of chicken
which are insufficient for a meal will,
however, afford the foundation for sew
eral substantial dishes. A most appe-
ting one is made with the aid of boiled
rice, well seasoned and pressed into a
square pan. When it is cold 1t should
be sliced and fried until very crisp and
brown. The chicken minced and sea-
soned is piled upon bread slices. If
curry powder is liked, little of this
may be added TO the chicken by way of
4 distinctive flavor.
