Planting and Care of Street Trees.

All planting Of trees on streets should
be done by the town or by permanent
organizations authorized to carry on
the work; says the Los Angeles Times.
The poorer the soil the larger should
be the hole for the tree. II convenient,
add rich soil. Spread the roots care
fully. Fill in with pulverized soil and
press into contact with the roots. Pro-
tect the tree with line Of wire netting
supported on three or four posts. 1t
adds to the expense, but pays in the
long run. But in the protection of the
young trees don't forget to stir up civic
pride Interest the whole town In the
improvement clubs schemes, It Is
right here that special celebrations
have their place. Provide for the small
boy and enlist him IL you can. It pays
better than to permit arrest or threat
en- with arrest. Don't permit telegraph
Or telephone linemen to mutilate trees
or climb them with spikes. Secure the
passage OF ordinances forcing wires
and cables underground wherever prac-
ticable Telegraph and telephone masts
are unsighuy and interfere with all
schemes OF street improvement and
tree planting.

How TO Fry.

To fry food properly a deep pan is
needed, with wire frying basket OF a
proper size to fit it. Fat is also needed
in sufficient quantity to allow the arti-
cles fried to be completely immersed
in it. The success of the process de-
ponds upon the temperature and purity
Of the fat.
In ordinary households constant
supply Of the best possible frying me-
dunn, properly clarified fat, ought to
be always at hand. All fat, cooked or
uncooked; all skimmings from soups Or
gravies, all scraps Of fat, must be col
lected and cut into small pieces. Then,
with water in the proportion Of quar-
ter Of pint to each pound Of fat they
must be rapidly boiled in covered
saucepan, the lid being removed after
boiling point Is reached, and the cook
ing continue till not the faintest bub-
BILE is seen. Then only is it free from
moisture and ready to be strained
through cloth into a basin, where
when cool it will be a firm, compact
mass Of absolutely pure fat
When wanted for cooking 1t must be
placed in deep saucepan quite an
hour before it is needed to heat gradu-
ally and thoroughly, so that at the right
moment it may be raised quickly to
smoking point, at which the blue
smoke is signal that it Is ready for
food to be cooked in it.
The articles to be fried must be
placed in the frying basket, few at a
time and not touching each other, and
gently lowered into the fat, where
they remain until they are a faint lem
on color, ready to be drained over the
pan for few moments and afterWard
set in the open oven or on the hot plate
on paper to drain thoroughly. When
frying articles requiring longer cook
ing the pan should be moved to a
cooler part of the stove after the first
few moments, SO that cooking goes on
slowly. They are then drained as
above. It must be remembered that fat
must be raised to smoking point again
before fresh articles are placed in It,
ALI greasiness Of fried foods is caus-
ed by the fat being below smoking
heat. When it is absolutely boiling II
causes an invisible crust to form In
stantly, which not only prevents the
fat entering, but the favor from leav-
ing, the food cooked in it.
Fat may be used again and again
but 1t must be clarified afresh after
each using. A slice of raw potato
placed in it will clear it, and it must
still be strained through a cloth into a
basin again. When it becomes much
discolored by frequent use 1t should be
melted, then mixed with water and car.
Donate Of soda ha1f teaspoonful to
one quart of water) and boiled for hall
an hour skimming thoroughly and set
ting aside till cold Then cut up, scrap
Ing off all impurities, and clarity as be
fore with water, boiling until all has
evaporated, when clear fat will remain
to be strained off.

How Columbus Missed The Honor Of

A fight of birds, coupled with assail-.

When Columbus sailed westward over
the unknown Atlantic, he expected to
reach Zipangu (JapaD. After several
days sail from Gomera, one Of the
Canary islands, he became uneasy at.
not discovering Zipangu, which, ac-
cording to his reckonings, should have
been PIG nautical miles more to the
east.
After a long discussion he yielded to
the opinion Of Martin Alonzo Pinzon,
the commander OF the Pinta, and steer
ed to the southwest Pinzon was guild
ed in his opinion solely by a flight Of
parrots which took wing in that direc-
ton. 1T was good luck to follow in
the wake Of flock of birds when en-
gagged upon a voyage Of discovery, ac-
cording to widespread superstition
among Spanish seamen Of that day.
II Columbus had kept to his course,
he would have entered the gulf stream,
have reached Florida and then proba-
bly, have been carried to Cape Hat
teras and Virginia.

Ii Should Be Without Sham Elegance
and Elaboration.
There are cottages and cottages. Any
modest, unpretentious house designed
on strictly economical lines may be
fifty called a cottage, and it Is more
satisfactory to regard ones own sins
pie little abode as % well built, commo-
dieus cottage than as a small house Of
comparatively cheap construction and
Scramped dimensions 1t is when given
to the big staggering seaside houses of
the rich that the term cottage be-
comes misnomer and an affectation.
To the man Of moderate means the.
very idea OF building a cottage rather
than house carries with it a sense Of
making a home within his means free
from vain striving for a sham elegance
and elaboration. The cottage which,
apes the mansion is as absurd as the
affected and exaggerated dignity Of the.
pompous and understood individual
who seeks to create an impression out
of all proportion to his real Importance.
h Since simplicity is oneso the main att
tributes of a we'll designed cottage, Its
charm and effectiveness must depend
upon the quiet excellence Of Its proper
tion and the harmonious and unobtru
sive quality Of Its coloring In relation

AERIAL TELEGRAPHY.
lirst Attempted by Amontons In this
Fifteenth Century.

Fifteenth Century.
One Of the first systems OF, aerial
telegraphy was attempted in the ff-
teenth century The originator was
Amontons, at that time considered one
Of the cleverest scientists Of the world.
Yet you never hear the name nova
days In connection with that OF Morse
Or Bell. However. Amontons develop
ed a system Of signal telegraphy SO
that a message could be sent from
Paris to Rome in three hours. Those
who assisted in the transmission Of the
message along the line were unable to
tell the nature of the message.
Posts were placed from Paris across
the Alps at consecutive points, where
men were stationed with telescopes.
Different signals, representing com
binations of letters, were run up at
each, post. The man at the other end,
seeing the signal, placed a similar one
before his post, and 50 the message
was carried to its destinat ton,
The key to the signal was known
only to those who sent the messages
in Paris and to the recipients thou
sand miles away. Amontons was not
encouraged in his work by the puffy,
equity functionaries Of the time and
discontinued his efforts. Philadelphia
