Last year the leafiess plant called
dodder was very destructive to many
of the alfalfa fields in the south. Dod-
der plant is the yellow plant that pro-
duces no leaves, and Is known among
young people as love vine." 1t is a
parasite-winds its long arms around
the clover plant and sucks the life out
of the plant as successfully as does
the San Jose scale out of the fruit
tree. The dodder seed are much small

Some New Ones That the Hostess
Can Readily Prepare.

The sandwich is always acceptable,
no matter what the character of enter
tainment, and here are some new ones
that may be readily prepared. Raisin
sandwiches are delicious morsel to
serve with lemonade or any kind of
fruit juice beverage. Cut large table
raisins in two with sharp knife, take
out the seeds, dip in brandy or sherry,
but do not let them remain a moment
in the liquor. Then cut white bread in
rings with the top of baking powder
can, spread with good butter and put
an even layer of raisins between.
Caviar sandwiches are made by
taking the Russian caviar, placing 1t
in dish and beating to smooth
paste with lemon juice and olive oil.
Spread on unbuttered bread, and crate
the yoIks of hard boiled eggs over the
top.
Nasturtiums are the very acme OF
-daintiness; they must be made from
the small, tender leaves covered with
mayonnaise dressing. They must be
served soon after preparing as the
leaves soon lose their spicy freshness.
Just before sending to the table lay a
few blossoms on each plate. These
sandwiches are especially nice served
with meat and game.
Delicious walnut sandwiches are
made from one cup of walnut meats;
chop them fine with chicken iivers,
mix with mayonnaise, spread on thin
slices of whole wheat bread.
For olive sandwiches. chop them fine
and mix with enough cottage cheese or
Neufchatel to make a paste, add salt
and papricka to taste.
Any kind of meat sandwich is great
ly improved by laying very thin slices
OF cucumber on just before serving.
Radishes cut thin may be used in the
same way.
Radish and watercress sandwiches
are delicious "appetizers;" dip the
slices of radish in French dressing, put
in two or three bits of watercress and
serve. They are quite the proper thing
to serve with the fish" course.
Banana sandwiches are a favorite
with children; slice the fruit length
wise, dip In sugar, spread jelly over
the top and put between brown bread,
cut in strips.

Removing Stains.

A correspondent signing herself
Patriotic" wants to know how to re-
move the stain from red, white and
blue bunting from table cloth.
If boiling it or pouring boiling water
through the stain does not remove it,
get some javelle water from the drug
store and try that.
But boiling, not hot water. usually
removes stains that are made by wa
ter striking color that runs and all
kinds of fruit stains. OF course, the
spots are much easier removed If the
boiling water is used right after the
stain is made. Otherwise the colors
become set and it takes more time and
patience.

Cheats in New York.

One of the growing methods of
cheating in New York is by short
change" The system has taken firm
root in many ticket offices and shops,
and has notably increased when
small payments are being made
through dumbwaiters, in which latter
instance the person delivering goods
says too little was sent down or that
he returned more than the receiver
can find. and that there must have
been q loss in transit.

Experiments made recently in Mis-
souri, demonstrated the fact that eight
tons of stable manure applied when
fresh to an acre of land increased the
yield of corn 20 bushels. But The good
effects of the eight tons of manure
continued to be felt for several years
following the application. Barnyard
manure should not be neglected and
left to lie in the stable, but be spread
once each week.

F. j. Lee. the barber OF Idaho Springs,
who was celebrating in the city last week,
was tried before Justice Hooper Friday
on the charge Of carrying concealed
weapons. The defendant pleaded guilty,
but several witnesses were placed on the
stand Presidents OF Idaho Springs) to
testify as to the character and good re-
putation Lee enjoyed in his home town,
counsel for the defendant introducing
this testimony for the purpose OF procur-
ing for his client as light fine as pos
sible. The revolver Lee carried was ex.
hibited in court and as Malcolm Lindsey,
an attorney from Idaho Springs who re-.
presented Lee contended, was as harm
less as piece ofthe steel the same size.
There was no firing pin to the trigger Of
possible to explode cartridge. Another
thing that made the gun useless was the
fact that it was a 80 calibre and the cart
ridges which had been sold to Lee were
3S's. Lee claims he bought the gun in
Idaho Springs while slightly under the
influence OF liquor for the sum OF fifty
cents. He didn't examine the weapon
before buying and therefore was not
aware OF its defects. When buying it he
intended to purchase the right sized
cartridges and do little target shooting
while on his way to this city. 1t was
clear to the court that the defendant
had not carried the gun with the in.
tention OF doing any injury to anyone
and in assessing the fine leniency was
shown. Lee was fined only $500 and
costs which seemed,a plenty unless the
Judge should have wanted to punish the
man for carrying such useless weapon
In which event the fine should have been
no less than 10000.
