Humus in in the Orchard.

It Is important to preserve humus In
the soil where there Is humus, and to
supply it where there Is no humus.
Humus has a value distinctive from
that of the fertility it contains. 1t
holds moisture in and holds some forms
Of fertility. To increase 1t in the or
chard grow legumes Of some sort and
plow them under. Not only does the
cultivator thus increase the humus In
the soil, but the nitrogen is increased
as 1t Is caught from the air by these
plants. Some follow the practice OF
not blowing or spading under the green
crop, but of moving and leaving it on
the ground. But this is an Inferior way
of getting the good of tho decaying
humuA. The air must in that case rob

blocky build as shown in the illustra-

breast meat, and a weight greater
than the apparent size. In the at
tempt to produce extra large speci-

at the expense Of one Of the most
practical qualities Of the breed; it's
blockiness. which also goes with early

ste How Scissors. Are oa0os
Though no complexities are Involves
In the making OF scissors or much skin
required. yet the process Of manufac.
'ture L. very Interesting. They arr
forged from good bar steel heated to
redness, each blade being cut OF with
sufficient metal to form the shank, or
that destined to become the cutting
part, and bow. or that which later on
is fashioned into the holding portion.
For the bow q small hole is punched,
and this is afterward expanded to the
required size by hammering it on a
conical anvil, after which both shank
and bow are fled into more perfect
shape and the hole bored in the middle
for the rivet. The blades are next
ground and the handles fled smooth
and FURNISHED with oil and emery,
after which the pairs are fitted to-
gether and tested as to their easy
working.
They are not yet finished, however;
they have to undergo hardening and
tempering and be again adjusted, after
which they are finally put together
again and polished for the third time.
In comparing the edges Of knives and
scissors it will be noticed, Of course,
that the latter are not in any way so
sharply ground as the former, and that
In cutting scissors crush and bruise
more than knives.

THE COOKBOOK.

Put pinch of bicarbonate of soda
in the water when boiling salmon.
This makes it a beautiful red color.
When roasting fowls, put them into
an intensely hot oven until carefully
Drowned: after that cook slowly, bast-
ing frequently.
When gravy is being made from
roast veal, lamb, beef or chicken, use
milk instead of water added to the
brown drippings left in the pan after
the fat has been poured off.
Before baking a bluefsb the creole
cooks pour over it a sauce made from
fresh or canned tomatoes in which
garlic is chopped. 1t is then baked I'm.
til the flesh of the fish flakes, admitting
the sauce.
For quick cake beat until thick
four eggs; add four tablespoonful of
sugar, half a cupful Of -four. little
cinnamon and lemon rind: beat well
and spread on Il baking pan: bake in
quick oven and cut at once.
Cooking teachers say that the ingre-
dents for pancakes, fritters and the
like should be mixed fully two hours
before the batter is needed This. they
explain, gives the -four a chance to
swell, and the batter is better and
more wholesome.

A Clever Horse.

A great many horses are fed on the
streets from "catbags' drawn up over
their noses and wabbling about in a
manner which must make it very un-
comfortable to eat ones dinner in that
way. The Boston Herald tells of a
bright horse down in "Pie Alley
which had nearly reached the bottom
of his bag. 1t wabbled awfully, but
the oats were sweet and he was hun
cry. In front of him stood wagon,
and the wagon had a wheel. Happy
thought! He walked up to the wheel,
rested his canvas bag on the top of it
and finished his dinner to the last oat
in a comfortable, leisurely fashion and
with twinkle in his eye. If that was
not triumph Of mind over matter,
what was it?

doubts whether It can be- baked as well
In stove as In an open fireplace; but.

That Is done by pitching them out Of
the pan into the air and making them
come down flap on the other side. The
corn pone may be cooked Ii a stove or
range.
The hoecake was originally cooked
on hoe in the fields and In the negro
cabin. A skillet will do well enough
for it, but must be well creased at the
bottom. So, too, with respect to egg
or batter bread. AS for corn mullins,
the appliances of range are admira-
bly, adapted to them.
We wish some millionaire would fit
up Virginia country home in ante

have in it a big open fireplace, black

bandanna on her head, and also have
a half acre mint bed, an icehouse and
an old time garden filled with raspber-
ries and gooseberries, thyme, sage, cur
rants and all the ordinary table vege-
tables.
When one of those old time homes
and gardens and kitchens is restored
and the host and hostess have entered
into possession, we desire to be listed
as frequent guest, with reserved
seat in the chimney corner. Then all
we shall want will be the zest, the ap-
petite. the voraciousness we possessed
when we could eat eighteen rolls and
six eggs for breakfast and consume a
whole watermelon between meals. But,
alas, it would be easier to restore old
walls and open fireplaces than to bring
back the digestion and storage capacity

How to Keep Young.

One of the secrets of keeping young,
vigorous and supple jointed is to con-
tinue to practice the activities of youth
and to refuse to allow the mind to
stiffen the muscles by it's suggestion
of age limitations. If men like Peter
Cooper and William e. Gladstone, who
kept up the vitalizing exercises of ro-
bust manhood when far into the
eighties. had succumbed at forty to the
thought of approaching age. how much
of their valuable life work would have
remained undoneHSuccess

Diamond fields in India We're known
from the very earliest times. In the

are mentioned as yielding diamonds,
and Of these three have been identi-
fed at the present day-Matanga (Kist-

pur) and Vena Gunga (Wairaghar,.
The diamondiferous area Of India, so
far as is known, is perhaps more ex-
tensive than that of the rest of the
world, and nine-tenths Of the famous

Ham is frequently too salt to fry
without previous preparation. Put the
slices in tepid. water and let them
stand on the back of the range to soak
out the salt, not to boil, for about half
an hour Drain dry between towels,
then fry in hot spider.
When whole ham is to be baked or
boiled, let it stand overnight covered
with cold water.
