equal amount of cold water Beat to-
pounds Of confectioners sugar, and stir

Keeping Apes in Winter.

If large quantities of fruit are to be
kept there is no way equal to the mod
ern cold storage process, but this is ex-
pensive. Oftentimes, however, one has
a few barrels of fine fruit designed for
home use or to keep for select trade,
and these may be kept in good shape
by either Of the following methods.
Only the finest and most perfect spect-
mems are used in either case: Take
good barrels, and in the bottom of each
place oats an inch deep. Then wrap
each apple in newspaper and pack a
layer on the oats, not permitting the
apples to touch. Then put in another
layer of oats, and on this layer of
apples, as before. Continue this until
the barrel is full. The other method
is simply to omit the oats and pack the
apples in the same way, after wrapping
each specimen in oiled or waxed pa
per. In either case the barrels must be
kept in an even temperature, where it is
cool but above the freezing point.

Destructive Cabbage Worm.

The common white butterfly seen
In cabbage fields is an imported
insect and very destructive, says
the Orange Judd Farmer. The
adult female insect Is shown in the il
lustration. The eggs are laid upon
cabbage and allied plants, producing
the well-known green cabbage worm.
After feeding for q time the worm
leaves the plant, changes to chry-
sails, from which the adult energies
shortly afterWard. There are several
broOds each season.
Attempts have been made to destroy
these pests by the cultivation of a
contagious disease, which has been
found to attack the worms. This rem
edy however, has not been successful
and other means must be followed for
it's destruction. Hand picking the
worms, although tedious, is an effec-
tive remedy on small areas. Insect
powder, known also as pyrethrum, Or
buhach, may be mixed with six or
eight times it's bulk Of flour and busted

Winter Poultry Yards.

When poultry are confined during the
winter they should have a yard in
which to run on pleasant days, if no
scratching shed can be provided. A
good plan is to protect the yard on the
windy side by piling cornstalks Aigh
against the fence. Then have a heap
Of coarse, straWy manure in the yard.
sufficiently large to keep the soil from
freezing hard. Cover as large a space
as possible with this heap, or, better
still, have several such heaps, and pro
tect them with boards, so that the
fowls cannot set al them and scratch.
Uncover one of these heaps at time,
and pile the material in another spot,
then spade up the soil where it lay. If
the pile was high enough the soil can
be easily loosened, and, except in very
cold sections, will not freeze hard again
in several days. A, little grain thrown
on this spaded space will keep the
fowls busy and happy. An hour each
day when the sun is shining brightly in
a spot like this will keep the fowls in
good shape, and they will turn out eggs
regularly.

Money in Potatoes.

In some localities, notably in sections
of the East, considerable money has
been made from potatoes this season,
one man marketing 1000 barrels from q
little over twenty-five acres at an aver
age Of So a barrel. Such cases are, Of
course, unusual, and due to the high
prices incident to a short crop. The
yield, too, is out of the common and
secured by the following treatment of
the soil: AS a foundation for the big
crop of potatoes a field in sod is select
ed, heavily MANFRED, ploWed under and
planted to corn, which is faithfully cul-
tiyated until waist high. The following
spring the ground is plowed deeply,
which brings up the rOtted sod, which
is fined by the use of cutting harrow
and drag harroWs until it is in shape
for the seed potatoes. Potato planters
are used, the seed being dropped four
teen inches apart in the row with the
rows three feet apart. After planting
the plot is narrowed, and then cultiva-
ton begins and is kept up thoroughly
until the plants meet across the row,
the cultivation being done as close to
the row as possible at each operation.
Thorough soil preparation and constant
and thorough summer cultivation are
the secrets of success in potato grow

Home Cleansing.

Gasoline is the best thing to use in
cleaning your coat. Have several soft,
clean cloths and pour only little of the
fluid into a vessel at one time, as 1T
evaporates rapidly when exposed to air.
Go over the coat very carefully by rub
bling a small portion at a time with a
Wellsoaked cloth and then going over
it with one dry, and when the cloths be-
come soiled take fresh ones, as this and
taking plenty of time to the task are
the secrets of successful cleaning. Be
sure to select a room without fire, gas
or lamp light for the cleaning process,
as gasoline is highly infammable and
dangerous when used near a blaze. The
professional cleaners will make the coat
look like new for trifiing sum, if 1t is
not badly stained

The Economical PIG,

Pigs are able to make much more eff
fective use of the foods with which
they are supplied than any other class
of farm animals. Experiments have
shown that, while the pig is capable Of
laying on flesh at the rate Of one pound
for every five pounds to seven pounds
of dry food which it consumes, cattle
require to eat from ten pounds to
twelve pounds and sometimes from
fourteen pounds to fifteen pounds Of
dry food for every one pound Of in
crease in weight that they show.

Conquer Your Decisions.

It is interesting to look back over
a successful life and see how many
things which experience shows were
not realities, but simply delusions,
have been conquered. They seemed
very real, when they confronted us in
youth, and their ghostly shadows had
power to fill us with dread and appre-
hension.
Ghosts are real to a child; it's vivid
imagination is full of things which
strike terror to it's young heart; but
as it grows older, the ghosts are
gradually conquered. They become
unreal and exist only in memory.
So, many of the things we dread
most which loom up before US as al
most insuperable obstacles, are seen.
when once passed, to have been only
de1usions. To conquer this fear of
unrealities, to trample under foot these
hogies of our own creation, is large
mart of our life's observation-disclosures.

Hint on Corn husking.

Use a horse to pull over your corn
shocks. Take a rope about eighteen
feet long, attach one end to the single
tree, carry the other end around the
shock and fasten to singletree also. See
that the rope is around the shock about
twenty inches from the ground. A
slight pull of the horse will bring over
the shock. With boy to lead the
horse and a handy hitch to the rope
you can average a shock a minute and
have it In much better shape for husk-
ing than when torn down by hand.
You can in this way pull over days
husking while the dew is on, and the
fodder will be damper for husking than
IL left standing till wanted. 1t will be
another advantage to you If you are
careful to pull over your shocks SO that
you can face the wind while husking,
letting the wind blow the fodder to you
and not away.-Ohio Farmer.

Bread Boards Revived.

Recently a very economical and at
tractiye custom is being revived among
the dainty housewives in the use Of the
bread board on the table These boards
are made attractive by the ladies with
poker decorations of wheat heads, oat
sprays and rye tops. These decorations
are only put upon the beveled edge, the
top being left clear and white for use.
1t requires some practice to cut the
bread neatly, thus offering new ac-
compIishment to the lady presiding at
the table.

Tobacco Is the Best Insecticide.

Most Of the insects common to house
plants dislike tobacco as much as does
the Clearly housewife The best way
to use it as an insecticide upon win
dow plants is to secure a good handful
of tobacco stems, place them in an old
basin, pour boiling water upon them,
and let them stand for several hours.
Then drain off the liquid into a basin
or tub deep enough for immersing the
with warm water until it shows only
faint tint Of brown Then take up the
plants one at time, and hold them,
tops down, in the water washing them
clean.-Ladies' Home Journal.
