Il DEATH CUP.
This Deadly FunEus Resembles Sew.
eraI Edible M-uShrooms.

Perhaps the most deadly Of the POI.
sonous fungi of our woods and fields
is the fairly well known death eur

ering fungi for the table siiould be
undertaken by none save those thor.
oughly acquainted with the different
species. rs il is altogether too easy for
the ignorant enthusiast 10 make m er.
ror which may prove fatal TO his
friends.
The death cup referred 10 has a
round cap. white, yellowish or green
lsh in color. and the stem has a swollen
base, surrounded by an envelope, or
veil. of a white iilmy substance. which
parts as the stalk extends upward.
This stalk is pithy when young. but
hollow at maturity. and the gills of the
cap, which in the meadow mushrooms
are pink or brown. are white in the
deadly variety. rs are also tho spores.
which can BE- plainly seen il the cap
is laid, gills downward. ON q piece OF
colorod paper for a few hours The
swollen, or dubious, base Is a diStin.
gushing characteristic. and no fungus
or that appearance should be gathered
for cooking. One of the liabilities Is
that these caps may be broken OF
without due observance of it's base.
which Is often covered with earth or
dead grasses. hence not distinguished
from some OF the lepiotas. which. how.
ever. are never surrounded with the
filmy veil of the death cup.
The poisonous property of this fungus
is largely the same as that found in the

A new Office in the department OF az

Ottawa inspection Of cheese is at last
TO be given a trial. This matter has
been a bone of contention in the Otta-
wa cheese board for some time. and at
the meeting recently it was brought up
an usual, with the result that 4 number
OF the buyers agreed to have the cheese
brought to Ottawa and inspected at the
rooms of the Ottawa Cold Storage com
pany Immediately after the sale. The
trouble in the past has arisen in a
grievance on the part of the manufac-
turers. They claim that after their
cheese is sold at a certain price, shipped
to Montreal and there inspected the
buyers often inform them that it IS not
up to standard and refuse to pay the
price of the bid. Rather than have II
returned for the sake of a fraction Of a
cent per pound the sellers usually let
the cheese go at whatever is offered.
BY having it inspected in Ottawa this
difficulty, they think, would be over
come.
Parafnn Coating Fer Cheese.
The experiment station at Geneva,
N. ", has made some tests to illustrate
The value Of coating cheese with paraf.
nn- The results show a great saving in
weight and preservation Of flavor.
BY paraflning the cheeses much Of
the loss In weight was prevented, espe-
cially at the highest temperature, and
the quality a improved in some in
stances, never lowered.
Half OF the cheeses In one lot were
dipped in melted parafln when q few
days old and. were distributed in the
curing rooms at different temperatures
- compare with the other half Of the
cheeses, which were untreated. The
operation Of paraflning, which is a sim
pie ana inexpensive one, leaves each
cheese coated with a thin layer, almost
air tight and water tight, Of a material
upon which molds viii not grow. Evap-
sration is thus checked. and the cheesea
are kept free from mold.

Blossom. You must not leave until

While sitting there bemoaning her hard

q flock OF sparrows pecking the hulls

On another occasion the mother said,
