Sailed Peanuts.

During the holiday season sailed
peanuts will be in constant demand.
Every housewife will want to know
how to prepare them quickly, and in
generous quantities.
Place any amount of Spanish pea
nuts you wish to make up in your
rooster, or if you have no rooster put
them in your popcorn pepper and
roast them to a nice light brown.
Turn them out into a coarse sieve,
and when they have cooled enough
80 you can bear your hands on them
rub the skins off as well as you can.
For every three pounds of peanuts
break one egg into a suitable dish
and beat up slightly.
Pour over the peanuts, stir around
a little, throw on sufficient table salt
and stir them around thoroughly with
your hands.
Do not stir any more than neces-
sary.

CANNING Pumnkin

Peel and cut the pumpkin into small
cubes. Cover with water and cook
until tender-no longer. Fill the jar
with these cubes, being very particular
to fill the space around them with the
water in which the pumpkin is cook
ed. When the jar is nearly full add
four grains Of benzoic acid. Fill the
jar to overlooking and close as usual,
being very careful that all rubbers,
covers, ETC., are perfectly sterile. The
oenzoic acid may be purchased for
very little of any druggist. Have him
weigh out four grains for you and
wrap IN separate paper. then anyone
can guess at the quantity by looking
at this.

THE INCUBATOR.
Rules to be Observed for Successful
Operation.

In choosing the incubator you will
use, do not be altogether, or mostly,
governed by prices. Get what seems
to you to be the best, and pay what
ever price is necessary to get 1t. Do
not let any one talk you into any other
course, says the indianapolis News.
OF all the necessary equipment for
poultry production, this stands first
in Importance, and much of your sue
cess will depend upon the intelligent
selection of Matching machine.
When the machine arrives, uncrate
II carefully. PuHtogether the different
parts according % the directions. II
you have bought a good machine the
printed instructions FOR setting up and
starting will be ample. There are a
few common sense points, however,
which will serve to save time and
labor.
Put the incubator in a cellar or
room where there is a pretty even
temperature and good ventilation.
Even the best machines will do better
work in such a place than when sub
jected to sudden and severe changes.
The eggs. also will suffer less from
abrupt and frequent variations while
turning. Keep the lamp wicks clean
and trim as often as necessary to do
this. Trimming every day is unnec-
essary. With good oil, every third
day is often enough.
Do not fuss too much over the tenn
perature. 1t can vary a degree or two
either way and do no. harm. The eggs
may run as low as 50 degrees for
some hours and then hatch well. Be
ware of overheating. 1t is more I'M
natural, and. hence, more harmful.
The very best advice is to do the nee
essary work expeditiously, keep the
lamp clean, the room we'll aired, and
forget to putter and worIg

in Mrs. Grimmitt being thrown out of
the buggy. She sustained severe
shaking up and few bruises.
In the afternoon Mack Carselowey's
horse, attached to surray, broke the
single-tree and tore loose from the
vehicle. No one was injured.
In the evening while Cash Wilkin-
son and family we're out driving their
horse became frightened and unman-
agable. Wheeling to run, he turned
the buggy completely over, injuring
Mrs. Wilkinson severely. Mr.. Wilkin-
son and their baby escaped with few
scratches and bruises. The horse
broke the shafts loose from the buggy
and ran down town, where he fell on
the brick pavement, and is said to
have slid all the way across the street.

THE LAW DOES
NOT APPLY HERE

The last session Of congress passed
an act which provided that upon the
application Of individual Indians the
Secretary Of the Interior could. IN his
discretion, cause to be apportioned
and paid TO such Indians their pro
rata share of their tribal trust funds
on deposit in the United States traes-
ury.
Many inquiries have been made by
members of the Five Civilized TriJes
with reference to this Act, they re-
ouesting to know how, when and
where they can obtain their share OF
the tribal funds.
The department of the Interior has
decided that the act of congress men,
toned does not apply in any way to
the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw,
Creek or Seminole tribes for the rea-
son that the so-called "Curtis Act" OF
last year (April 26, 1906) specifically
provides how and when the funds of
the Five Civilized Tribes shall be dis
tributed.
The act providing for the immediate
disposition and apportlonment OF
tribal funds only applies to the reser-
vation Indians throughout the United
States. sIndian Agent Kelsey is in
receipt of instructions from the Com
missioner Of Indian Affairs to promul-
gate this decision, and to advise mem
bers Of the Five Civilized Tribes that
the law as mentioned does not apply
to them.

TEST STATE LIQUOR LAW.
Washington Law Prohibiting Sale OF
Liquor to Indians, on Trial.

The perennial question of the legal
right, under state law, to sell liquor
to Indians, is again being tested in
Washington. A North Yakima cor
respondent says:
The case Of G. Kelly, a local sa-
i ,eper charged with selling liquor
indians, may be made a test case
to decide the constitutlonality Of the
state law which makes such an Of
fense liable to a fine. Kelly was fined
$50 and costs by Justice Doust, before
whom he was tried, and notice of ap-
peal was filed by H. ]. Shively, attor-
ney for Kelly.
Kelly is charged with selling whis-
key to an Indian named Lucas during
state fair week. There were Indian
witnesses present to bear out the
case of the state, as we'll as Captain
]. w. Green, an officer of the depart
ment OF the interior, who witnessed
the sale of the whiskey and caused
the arrest Of Kelly.
The defense did not deny the sale
OF the whiskey, but argued that the
Indian had a right to buy the liquor
and that the state law prohibiting 1t
is unconstitutional. Prosecuting at
torney H. H. Wende was willing that
1t be made a test case for the superior
court to decide, and, II necessary, car
~ it to the supreme court. In maxi
ing his remarks Mr. Wende severely
arraigned saloonkeepers and others
who make a practice of selling whis
key to Indians, knowing the effect
it has upon them.
Attorney Snively wanted to know
what right Captain Green had to ar
rest the Indians in the case and hold
them as witnesses, and threatened to
sue him for false imprisonment on be-
half of the Indians.
