On field which it is desired to get
into a permanent sod, we would not
SOW oats at all. AS the result of OBJ
servation we are satisfied that it is n
mistake to seed a grain crop with grass
seeds; and we are satisfied that this
is especially so in the South, where
the object is to get good stand Of
grass. There may be some excuse
for 1t when the grass crop is the prime
consideration. Grain seeds shaded by
grain crop, especially if the crop is
heavy, are so much shaded and so
weakened in their growth by the
stronger root growth of the grain
crop, that at best, they make but a
poor showing when the grain is cut
off. In the South the harvesting Of
the grain crop is done at Il time when
the power of the sun is greatest, and
the result too often is that the grass,
deprived of shade and in a weak con-
dition, is burnt up. Seeded alone, the
grass seeds make vigorous growth
from the start, and are Injured to the
power of the sun, and able to with
stand its scorching rays without suf-
fering. We have seen a crop Of grass
so raised that made an excellent crop
Of hay the first year, and went into
the winter able to withstand the frost
without damage.-The Epitomist.

The Making of Puddings.

Only the best materials should be
used for making puddings, and about
the same rules observed in their prep
aration as for cake making. The -four
should be siftsd, the eggs beaten sep
arately the ,elks strained and the
whites added last. A pinch OF salt
improves all puddings.
Steaming Is the most wholesome
method of cooking a pudding. Put on
over vessel of cold water and do not
uncover while cooking, else the pud-
is to be baked must be put into the
oven as soon as mixed. If it cooks too
fast it will become watery. Man.
cooks prefer using molds or basins for
boiled puddings, but they will be much
lighter II boiled In a cloth and allowed
plenty of room to swell. This cloth or
bag should be made of very firm cot
ton drilling, tapering from top to bot
tom with rounded corners. The seams
should be stitched and felled and the
edges hemmed. Sew a piece of stout
tape to the seam about fingers length
from the top. 1t must be kept scrupu-
lously clean by washing in clean
water, squeeze dry. then dredge the
inside dhe right side) with -four Turn
the pudding mixture into 1t, tie secure
ly and drop into kettle of boiling
water. 1t should be kept entirely COW
cred with water, and never stop boil

ment into cold water, then unite the
string, turn back the cloth, slide the
pudding ON the serving dish and send
to the table at once.-The Ladies'

Elephant Catcher Needed.

An elephant catcher rather than \
cow catcher seems to be needed in
India. On the railroad between Ben
gal and Assam, according to the Rail
road Gazette, as the superintendent
of the line was making an inspection
trip, while passing through the great
Nambar forest, the train came to a stop
with a jolt that threw the travellers
out Of their berths. The train had
run into herd of wild elephants which
were trottlng down the track, the last
of which had both hind legs broken
and was thrown into the ditch, while
the engineer counted seven others
which got away. This is not the first
time that wild elephants have got
on the track, and ordinary fences and
cattle guards are no protection.-Scl-

became the most expert operator the
company ever had. She handles a
board for sixty telephones and also
has charge of n toll station of which
she personally keeps the books. She
locates a call on the board by the
sound of the drop" or by running her
nimble fingers over the exchange
board. She graduated from the In
dianapolis School for the Blind in
1898, and can cook, sew by hand or
machine, do fancy work, and is an ac-
complished musician. She is the only
blind telephone operator in the coun-
try.

An English Woman Farmer.

One Of England's foremost farmers
is n woman, the Hon. Mrs. Murray
Smith. On her estate, Gurnley Hall,
Leicestershire, she raises some of the
finest Jersey cattle that are bred any
where. She is an early riser, and is
up and about among her men as soon
as the sun is In sight. She attends to
all the details Of the management Of
her estate. All of the Improvements
which can contribute to the well-being
of the animals are made at her discre-
tion. She sees that they have the best
of food and the most comfortable
quarters. AS the result they have
taken many prizes. One COW, LORNA,
which carried off the milking prize at
Tring and the butter certificate at the
Bath and West of England show
gives 900 gallons of milk yearly. Mrs.
Smiths rule is not to keep any COW
which yields less than 600 gallons of
milk year. She herself attends to
all of her correspondence and the rec
ord-keeping in connection with the ami
mails.

To Make Cocoa.

Cocoa is really a delicious beverage
IL properly made, but in nine cases
out Of ten it is spoiled in the process.
The secret in preparing cup Of cocoa
lies in adding no more of the powder
than is essential. The milk which is
used to make it should not be diluted
if the cocoa is to be nutritious and pal
atable. Not more than half a teaspoon.
full of cocoa should be used to the cup,
and it is absolutely unnecessary to first
mix the cocoa with a little milk or
water, as most people are in the habit
Of doing.
After you have put the milk In n
double boiler on the fire, sprinkle the
cocoa on the top of the milk, and as
soon as the latter is lukewarm stir
in the cocoa, which will dissolve i'm
mediately. Cocoa does not mix well
in a cold liquid, and it will lump in
milk that is too hot. Boiling cocoa
for from five to ten minutes improves
Its taste and aroma.-AmericaD

Save Your Own Seeds.

Why not save your seeds? 1t is
wiser, better, cheaper, and adds ma
terially to the pleasure of gardening.
You desire the best. To secure that,
select the best Of that which suits you
the best. There is great diversity
Of taste; some prefer one form OF
color, another quite different one.
This is an individual matter, and in
no way affects the principle. We all
have our preferences as to species.
We all want the best defined of a
given type. To secure this result, Sc
lection is necessary, and selection
means choice. 1t means the most Wig
orous plant that produces the flower
or vegetable best suited to your taste.
Save the seeds from such for future
use. Great care is required to make
the selection valuable. After a choice
of plants is made, the first flowers
should not be allowed to seed, as they
are never SO perfect as those that
come later. II the second flowers are
all that can be desired, If they are i'm
provements over those of previous
years, carefully remove all the un-
developed buds on the plant, so as to
give the blooms the full strength of
the plant for the ripening Of their
seed. This is the way all new varie-
ties are produced, and the way that
others may be. If Il flower shows the
slightest change of color or marking
it is sure indication Of a new variety.
From this plant save the most marked.
even though the flowers in other re-
spects may not be desirable. Save
the flower for seed that shows the
greatest change, and do not trust an
other to bloom until that seed is rip
ened. Follow this up for few years
and variety may be produced Of
more money value than the cost of the
whole garden during those years.

A Present Style of Grandmother.

Instead we have developed padded,
painted, "toupeed" grandmother. We

danes (of whose age the ''Peerage"
makes no secret wear white satin and
silver or much be-ruffled white muslin.
May it not be that this extraordinary
dislike to age may have much to do
with the independence Of young people
nowadays? What child would take
its childish griefs to our present style
of grandmother?-L Truth.

CHINESE DOCTORS,
Lament For the Degeneracy of Native
Physicians.

Lament For the Degen.racy of Native
Physicians.
Although medicine is small science,
yet it concerns the lives of men. The
Tso Chuan says: "Unless a doctor be-
longs to the third generation Of doc
tors in his own family we should not
take his medicine" Fan Wenkung
in his youth had an ambition to help
the world and often remarked: "If
cannot be a good statesman | will be
n good physician" Su Hsuankung in
his old age studied the healing art and
when he saw a good prescription copied
1t with his own hand, saying: This
is also way to give life to men," In
the Hau dynasty we had Chang Yui,
Chang Chung-ching and Hua To, in
the Chin dynasty 10 Hung, in the
Tang dynasty Sun Ssumao. All these
were famous physicians and left some
writings behind them.
Alas! how the present race of doc
tors has degenerated. How many Of
them trade on the ignorance of their
patients, quite forgetting that though
they may deceive men they cannot
escape the eye Of the gods.
Tseng Kuofan heard that in the West
all physicians must pass stringent
examination in the science and art OF
medicine before they are allowed to
practice. Hence their patients rarely
suffered death under the hands Of doc
tors. This is the very antipodes of the
entire absence of law and control OF
physicians in China, where anybody
with or without a smattering about
pulses, ETC., can hang out his Single
and begin practice. Individual govern
ors have tried occasionally to examine
physicians. But the Government
should take it in hand. At present the
number of Chinese who have conf
dence in Western medicine Is very
small, but increasing especially among
intelligent men. Although hospitals
cannot suddenly be called into being,
yet a beginning should be made by
compelling aspirants in the medical
art to pass regular examinations, and
only on receiving diplomas to begin
operations.-Shen Pao.

Sanitation in the Middle Ages.

The Greeks and Romans paid special
attention to the physical culture Of
their youth, to public water supplies
and baths, and Athens and Rome were
provided with sewers early in their
history. During the Middle Ages san
itation received a decided check. Ig-
norance and brutal prejudice prevailed
and this was the most unsanitary per-
iod in history. Most European towns
We're built compacty and surrounded
by walls. Che streets We're narrow
and winding, and light and air We're
excluded. The accumulation of filth
was frightful. Stables and houses
We're close neighbors. The dead were
buried within the churchyards or with
in the churches. Wells were fed with
polluted water. AL conditions We're
favorable for the spread of infectious
diseases, and in the fourteenth century
alone the Oriental or bubonic plague
the Black Death OF recent historians
carried off Il fourth of the population
of Europe. The birth rate was much
less than the death rate normally. The
cities had to be continually repopulated
from the country.
These sentences from Il review in
Science of new works on sanitation
in our own times illustrate, by provok-
ing a comparison, the improvement in
oCr Gay. ..r
