Soy Beans.

A good many farmers seem exercised
nowadays over soy beans. The Vermont
Experiment station has received a num-
Der OF letters of inquiry lately on this
subject Whether these queries are born

notices does not appear, but certainly
tue pub ic interest is awakened.

age, some to seed The bean is used in
oriental lands as human food, but in this
country the entire plant is grown and

varieties produce fair amounts of forage
which is relatively rich in protein and

How TO Econ Omize with Eggs.

Leftover yolks of eggs if put at once
into a tumbler of cold water will keep
fresh and soft for several days. If
dropped into cup and covered theyolks
would be unfit for use the second day.
The leftover whites of eggs may be made
into macaroons, kisses, or used for mer-
ineues. The whites of two eggs with
quarter OF a pound of sugar and the
same quantity of almond paste will make
two dozen macaroons. Where hard
boiled yoIks are wanted it is much bet
ter to break the eggs, separate carefully
the yolks from the whites and drop the
volks into water that is boiling hot !;
cook slowly for twenty minutes. In this
way you save the whites for another
purpose Mrs. s T. Rorer, in the Ladies
Home Journal.

Echoes of the Flood.

Our East Barnet correspondent writes:
Ice came crashing through the place, car
rving destruction before it. Sam Stod-
dard's barn was demolished, but the
house was saved by tree growing be-
side the river. Mr.. Stoddard's and Es-
bert Kendall's families vacated the house
before the crash came, but nearly every
thing in the lower part of the building
was covered with water and considera-
bly, damaged. A tenement house owned
by X. B. Gammel shared the same fate.
1t was surrounded by ice and filled with
water. The occupants, David Ammell' S
and Mr.. LeValley's families, had to move
out to save their lives. William Wal
lace's house filled so they had to move to
the second floor. They were entirely
surrounded by water and all the way
they could get out was in boat. The
Roy Brothers were losers too in lumber
and wood.
At Bellows Falls the water went no
higher than it did in the food of 1869.
At many other places in the state, it is
safe to say, the record OF 1869 was
beaten.
Some of the meadows now present to
the farmer fine opportunities for securing
a fair quality of ice without much cutting
Road Commissioner Jackson and the
selectmen passed some "waketul hours
last week, and after the waters had
blocked and broken up the roads, the
commissioner found employment for

tons and repairing breaks in the road
way. 1t is generally understood that
the commissioner and his white steed do
not care to repeat their experiences in
riding on icebcrgs.
