With the cardboard, which should
be we'll creased on both sides, only
bread or cake can be baked, but with
the tin, meat may be cooked in one

Akin to this is the divided spider,

cover and handle, so shaped that
they fit together in the shape of a
spider. Meat can be boiled in one, a
vegetable in another, and in the
third, water be heating for tea and
dish-water. Any one of these can be
removed when the contents are done.

Ths Horse and His Hoof.

1t is no longer a question as to
whether the horses hoof should be
given special care that he should be
enabled to render longer and salts
factory service to his master, as well
as to have comfort to himself. We
are now where it is not necessary
that the horse must be shod only one
or two times during the twelve
months, as in early days, but he must
be kept with shoes on the entire
twelve months.
The question comes, should not the
hoof OF the horse receive as much
careful attention as any other part O;
his body, as IL the hoof gives away,
what is your horse worth? Early
shoeing oftentimes stops the develop
ment OF the hoof and gives to the
horse a much smaller foot than other
wise II would have been.
Again, the horse has been allowed
to go without shoes until the outside
wall of the foot becomes broken and
split; the inward covering Of the in
side construction OF the foot becomes
30 thins which often results In bruised
tendons and often is followed with
corns and chronic lameness.
When possible the horse should bs

shod as nature would have 1t. Dur
ing the summer months the horse
should be shod with plates In front,
with the heel cut real low. thus re-
lieving the frog pressure OF the foot.
Then there should be care taken that
the smith who shoes the horse should
not burn the hoof with the hot shoes,
which cannot help being injurious to
the no.
In caring for the hoof he use Of
some soft oil, would prefer the use OF
tallow, we'll rubbed in just at the
upper edge of the hoof, will often
strengthen the growth AMI help to
sustain the foot, and where life is
there is growth When the horse Is
allowed to be out in the dew 1t will
often prove injurious to the hoof.
Care should be taken that the horse
used on the rosd should not be al.
lowed to run in the dew, as II so he
will have hard and dry hoofs. Keep
the hoof in a growing condition.--T
e. X, in the Indiana Farmer.

Nature and Insects,

Before man placed the woods and
prairies under cultivation, excessive
increase of any insect species was
perhaps unknown, or, at most, very
rare.
Nature has always provided forces
which operate against each other, as
1t were, and insects, as with other
creatures, a balance between the
numbers of different species has been
maintained.
Modern methods of farming have
often decreased the natural enemies
of injurious insects, and in other
cases have afforded conditions favor
ing the rapid multiplication of in
sects not formerly present in danger.
GUS numbers.
The practical entomologist of to.
day, while not discountlng the value
of poisons and sprays as implements
of war against the six-footed host,
recognizes that really satisfactory
control is brought about by a partial
or total restoration of the conditions
under which nature formerly pre-.
vented the different species from be-
coming too numerous The entomol.
oglst accordingly studies parasitic en-.
emies and diseases which destroy the
injurious insects, and oftentimes he
is enabled to encourage the parasites
to such an extent that they largely
or entirely control the injurious
forms.-Coleman's Rural World.

Value of Nitrogen.

Nitrogen is one of the principal
needs of plant. Ellsworth, CONNER
cially, about twenty cents a pound.
The air is eighty per cent. nitrogen,
and yet plants cannot use it in the
form in which t appears in the at
mosphere. Certain bacteria, If in
troduced into the soil, will work on
the root3 of clover and other legum-
inous plants, take the nitrogen from
the atmosphere, and convert It into
plant food Our baeteriologist prop
agates in his laboratory and supplies
in small bottles millions of these
nitrogen forming bacteria, which may
be spread upon the seed before it is
sown, and thus introduce into the soil
these nitrate forming bacteria. A
crop of clover will leave in the soil
in the root alone about fifty pounds
OF nitrogen per acre. Thus the plant
food supplied to the soil by crop of
clover is $40 per acre in one year,
and the ia, mer has the clover crop,
tops, and leaves to the good. This,
If practised on every farm, would
mean millions each year to the far
mer.--Weekly Witness.

-, Breed Draft Horses.

There is a greater inclination to 40
more breeding of draft horses than
for several years. Many will increase
this class of breeding next spring,
This is due to the fact that there is a
steady advance in the demand and
prices IF good draft horses both IN
this country and in Europe.
The American draft horse has
achieved tn. distinction of being the
leading market horse, the Industrial
horse of the age that breeds into
more money, whether grade or pure
bred. than the grades or pure breds
of any other stock. He has brought
a new prosperity to the farm never
before accorded to American horse

A DOG pETEcTIvr.

In 1929 a peasant was found MUIR
dered in wood In the Department of
the Loire. France, with his dog sitting
near the body. No clew could at first
be gained as to the perpetrators OF
the crime, and the victims widow
continued to live in the same cottage,
accompanied always by the faithful
dog. In February, 1897, two men.
apparently travellers, stopped at the
house, requesting shelter from the
storm. which was granted; but no
sooner had the dog seen them than he
flew at them with great fury, and
would not be pacified. AS they were
quitting the house, one Of them said
to the other; "That rascally dog has
not forgotten usi" This raised the
suspicion of the widow, who over
heard IL, and she applied to the gem
darmes the neighborhood. who fol-
lowed and arrested the men. After
long examination one of the criminals
confessed. - From "A Few Dog
Stories" by Ralph Neville, In The

-sNAPpINGo A MUsKRAT FIGHT.

SWAPPING" A MUSKRAT FIGHT.
All night long the splashing noise
and querulous cry of the fighting
males would come into our "shanty"
windows, and day by day we haunted
the deepest bays and swamps, hoping
to get picture of a combat.
At last chance gave us the oppor-
tunity We had managed to get
fair picture of male muskrat as he
came swimming upstream, and we
still stood watching him. He was
so close to us that we could see his
hands held together at his breast,
just in the churn of the water, and
his legs kicking out very much after
the manner of frog when swimming.
Suddenly he diyed down through the
clean water to a tiny randbar and
picked up clam with ais hands. 1t
was fully two minutes by our watch
before he came to the surface again.
He sat within fifty feet of us turning
the clam over and over. Then he in
cised It with his strong teeth and tore
It open. He had only just swallowed
the juicy biyalve when another musk
rat, intent on stealing it, dashed
across the bay.
There was sharp, chattering cry.
A low, plaintive whine followed, and
with hair bristling and eyes flashing

rolled around, but the spot was too
distant for us to focue II. Finally,
however, locked in each others paws,

Cooling Milk.


One of the most general methods
adopted for cooling milk is to place
the cans in a vat containing water
which reaches a point slightly above
surface of milk. The water may be
kept cool by running fresh water
from well or spring through the vat,
carrying off the heat as it passes the
sides of the milk cans. The cold
water should enter the vat at the
bottom and the warm be drawn off
from the top. If the water is al
lowed to run constantly through the
vat it would not be we'll to have the
vat contain more than from one to
two times as much water as there is
milk to be cooled. If the supply Of
water is limited and cannot be al
lowed to run constantly, then the vol
ume of water should be at least two
or three times the volume of the milk
to be cooled. Where ice is AVAILABLE,
the water will be kept cold by addi-
tion of ice instead of cold water, and
the volume of water should not be
more than that of the milk to be
cooled.
The milk should be stirred occa-
sionally but not Wig orously while be-
ing cooled. 1t would hasten cooling
to insert in the centre of the milk a
barrel-shared can containing cold
or ice water.
Arrange the detailg of your cooling
method % suit individual circumstan-
ces, keeping in mind the necessity for
removing the animal heat quickly
and cooling to as low a temperature
as your water ice will permit. Cool
and cool quickly.
Insist upon all your co-patrons
cooling carefully. Every can of milk
entering lot of cheese or butter
should be properly cooled If the make
is to be of high standard. One car
of inferior milk will spoil the fine
flavor of the whole. One make OF
poorer grade than the standard Of
the factory will affect adversely the
reputation of that factory.
Eternal vigilance will be the price
of our advance to and maintenance o.
the first place as producers of high
class dairy products. Bulletin, on

rests For TubercuIar MiIk.

Before the American Veterinary
Medical Association at Kansas City,
Mr.. s. II. Gnilliland, of Marietta, Pa,
described the effect Of the test for
tuberculosis on the lactation OF milk
COWS. He said that In experiments
on 658 cows none of the healthy ami
mails showed any decrease in the
amount of milk produced. Animals
that were tubercular showed a de-
crease as soon az the tests were be-
gun. He said there should be no
fear on the part of dairymen to have
their cattle tested.

washing the Dishes.

Dish-washing need be done but
once a day. If dishes are cleaned
with the pliable blade of a palette
knife they can be put away in neat
piles and washed as one task. There
are dish-washers which save the
hands and require no towels in dry
ing, the dishes being rinsed and left
to dry. One of my maids told me
that the castles of Ireland. the part
from which she hailed, we're supplied
with Ideal kitchens equipped with
racks where dishes we're left to dry.
The china and glass were OF the finest
kind, there was large quantity In
both and this process kept the pieces
bright. Why do we still cling to the
dish towel?-Betty Bradeen, In the
w Have Register.

For the Home Sewer.

Don't stitch the pleats on a skirt
before first trying the garment on.
Don't expect any skirt, coat or
dress to look well unless thoroughly
pressed while in the course of con-
struction and when completed.
Don't dampen silk when pressing.
A moderate hot iron, with cloth or
paper between the garment and the
iron, when the pressing is done on
the right side, should Be used.
Don't double the materials in maxi
ing folds for trimming skirt; cut
them singly, allowing enough extra
width for very narrow hem at the
top and bottom.
Don't stitch skirt seams all in one
direction. The bias side should be
held uppermost, which means that
the seams of half the skirt should be
stitched from top to bottom and the
other half from bottom to top.
Don't attempt to stitch long seams,
bias, or bias against a straight seam,
without basting. A basting stitch
saves great many fulling up of ma
terials and puckering up of seams,
which any amount of pressing can
not do away with.
Don't forget that shipping or
notching of the seams here and there,
particularly with selvage edge form
ing one side of the seam, will coun-
teract the shrinking tendencies when
seams are dampened and pressed.
When the selvage shows a puckered
or drawn effect in the goods it is bet
ter to cut 1t away before starting the
garment.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
