EXCELLENT RICE RECIPES.
At This Time Of Year Rice Is Well
come Addition to the Table
How to Prepare.

The spring months are usually the
most trying ones in the calendar for
the housekeeper on a farm to provide
change in the daily bill of fare.
Last years vegetables have grown
tasteless and wilted, or are gone en-
tirely; the stock of canned goods in
both fruit and vegetables is nearing
the finish, and it is still too early for
fresh homegrown supplies. 1t will
now be found that rice will often
prove useful in making many whole
some. nutritious dishes. To serve 1t
as a vegetable, it should be boiled
carefully SO that no two grains ad-
here together, and each grain should
be swollen to twice its original size.
1t is better to use the, first quality
of rice for this purpose, although the
second grade will do in many other
ways. To obtain these results, wash
the rice thoroughly, and then sprinkle
slowly into a large kettle full of boil
ing water The water must not be
chilled, for the rapid boiling. should
be continued Immediately. Boil 81
minutes, then drain on a colander
With fork shake it up lightly, and
place it in the oven to dry. VINES
properly prepared it should be like

The leftover of plain boiled rice
can be utilized in numerous ways l:
may be made into excellent griddle

tablespoonful of butter, one scant tea
spoonful each of salt and baking pow
der, one egg, one cupfuIe Of -four. and
sweet milk to make a batter. Bake on
griddle. The regular sour, milk
recipe can be used if preferred; simply
add the rice and less flour.
Rice Croquettes.-To one 1eacupful
of boiled rice add one tablespoonful
of butter, beaten egg, a seasoning OF
salt and pepper, and mix well togeth-
er. Mold into rolls, or small cakes
dip into egg, and then into powdered
cracker crumbs and fry in hot butter
or drjppings. A little finely chopped
cold meat is an improvement; II
should be mixed with the rice and
egg before molding.
Rice Muf1ns-Onc pint of milk, one
pint of rice, two eggs, two table
spoonfuls of sugar, one tablespoonful
of butter, one teaspoonful each OF
salt and baking powder. Beat the
sguar, salt, yolks of eggs and but
ter together, add the milk and suffi-
cient flour. to make a thin batter; Silt
the rice in lightly, and last the beaten
whites. Bake in rings 30 minutes.
Rice Soup.-Place one-half cupful
of rice in two quarts of water, with
one small onion sliced finely, two
or three sticks of celery and a small
bunch of summer savory. Boil two
hours, adding more water, if neces-
sary. Strain through colander, re-
turn to the fire and add the beaten
yolks of two eggs and one pint of rich
milk. Let it come to boil and serve
WITH toasted crackers.-Rural New

HOW TO SERVE RABBIT.
# Old and Tough, Best Boiled and
Served with White Sauce-1f
Young Broil or Roast.

II the bones of the rabbit are
strong and the skin tough, the game
is old and is best boiled whole and
served with white or cream sauce
But IL the bones are soft and the skin
tender. the rabbit is young and may
be cut in pieces and broiled after the
fashion of spring chicken. Or they
be roasted whole.
Roast Rabbit.-Fill with a bread
and butter dressing, sew up and flank
each side with large slice of fat
salt pork. Place in a hot oven and
cook for from one and half to two
hours, basting frequently. Brown
we'll and serve with a brown gravy
made in the dripping pan after the
meat has been removed.
Rabbit .Soup.-Cut a young rabbit
in small pieces and soak in water for
an hour; place in the soup pot and
cook until the meat separates from
the homes. Take out the best portions
Of meat To the remainder add a
carrot, iturnip, an onion. and three
sticks of celery, all finely cut. with
seasoned to taste, and simmer for
two hours longer. Add a tablespoon
full Ct butter rolled in -four. There
should be about three quarts of the
broth when finished. Cut the meat
in small pieces, place in a soup tureen
and pour the hot rabbit soup over it.
Rabbit Pie.-Clean and soak for an
hour in salt water. Take out and
stew with q little salt pork until half
done. Line the sides, of the dish with
pastry, lay. in the rabbit, put in the
gravy, add an upper crust and pierce
1t in. several places to let out the
steam and gases. Bake in a hot oven.

CLUB NOTES.

Bel1fiower.-Dr.N ID. H. Reeder, La
porte, Ind. Dear Doctor: have read
in this paper of your good advice and
thought would write you and ask for
some advice also. Have always from
child had the best of hearing, al
though about 30 years ago in coming
west got well filled with ague, bring
ing on ringing and Kissing noise in
them, yet not dulling sounds or not to
speak of, until about eight years ago,
when had catarrhal grippe. Since
then there has been dullness of
hearing, but not bad. But this winter
l had another spell and my hearing IL
much worse and to-day / can hear
most every noise imaginable in them,
even the chirping of birds. However,
I can hear the clock tick and previous
to this spell could hear it even in the
next room. There is dull feeling
in my ears, or ful.ness. I dread the
thought of being entirely deaf l
shall look anxiously for an answer
from you, for which l thank you in
advance. Respectfully, F. E.
! am inclined to disagree with you
as to the cause OF the ringing in your
head. The ague did not cause it, but.
rather, the quinlne which you In all
probability took to cure the ague.
This drug is, / presume, used more
than any other, end consider it en-
tlrely unnecessary. It is dangerous
drug, and SO mucn better and certain
results can be derived by the simple
method of the Home Health Club that
hope it may soon pass out Of use
among my readers. I think that the
trouble in your case, while serious,
can be overcome, but not in a day,
nor a week. have written you
fully in regard to the home treatment
which you Should use which I trust
will prove all and more than you an
ticipate I would like to go into de-
tails here, but IT. would take all of
my space, and FAUST consider others.
All readers of this publication are
at liberty to inquire for any informa
ton pertaining to the subject Of
health. Address all communications
to the Home Health Club or DR.. David

and address in full and at least four
