How to Increase Your Crops s4 to sS
Per Acre.

How to make more dollars is what
every energetic American is striving
to accomplish. Conditions are materi-
ally different from what they were a
few years ago in al lines OF business.
To keep up with the procession we
must increase with the times. Meth
DDS that were successfully applied five
or tan years ago are not adequate at
the present time. The whole nation
is improving, and if we do not take
advantage Of past experiences we are
not living up to our privileges.
The fel tilty OF the soil is one of the
most sinportant subjects that the
American people have to deal with
today, and the farmer who should be
most vitally interested in this subject
is giving it the least thought and at

Nine children were born to Mr.. and

Mrs. w. H. Alleman, Mrs. C. W.

For ninety-fve years he went for

Amateur Gardener Could Not Under

The woes of the amateur gardener
are very amusing to others, but de-
cidedly real to the nan who has
spoiled a suit of clothes, bhstered his
hands and lost his temper in his ef-
forts to make things grow.
A young man, recently married,
early in the spring secured a sub
urban place, mainly with the idea OF
fresh, homegrown vegetables Every
evening he would hurry through his
supper and rush out to his garden,
where he displayed more energy than
skill. But, alas When many little
green things began TO break the
ground in his neighbors' gardens. his
own remained as bare as the Sahara.

Strawberries in Merinsue Shells.


These shells are easily made, If the
cook understands that a coolish oven
is an absolute necessity in cooking
the meringue. Beat the whites OF six
eggs with a pinch of salt to a stiff
froth. using an egg whip instead of
patent beater. Add by degrees a
pound OF powdered sugar When the
sugar is all beaten in, shape the me-
ringue into dozen oval forms about
AN inch and half high. Dredge with
sugar and drop in baking pan lined
with paper Set in very cool oven
where they may rise slowly and be-
come firm in about half an hour. They
must not be allowed to color in the
least. Cool for half an hour then
dampen the bottom of the paper and
pull from the meringues. Shape the
shells by gently pressing the soft in
side up against the sugary outside
This gives thin shell of meringue,
leaving plenty of space for the ber-
ries. Set in the sun or drying oven
until perfectly dry. When ready TO
serve. fill half the shells with straw
berry ice cream and the other half
with a lemon or orange water ice. Or
fill half the shells with mashed and
sweetened berries. and the rest with
whipped cream or pistachio cream
and put the two together. Serve with
a delicate white cake.
