SOME FRUIT SALADS
DESIRABLE ADDITIONS TO THE
DINNER MENU.
Apples Cut In the Shape Of Tulips Are
the Foundation Of One Of the
Best Of These Recipes
Lettuce Salad.

This 10 the season when salads are
noticeable feature Of q dinner. The
fruit salads are very nice and may be
prepared In numerous ways. One
pretty way to make fruit salad Is
known as the tulip salad. Select very
bright red apples and do not pare. Re-
move the cores and slice the. sides In
little points to give the appearance
of tulip and scoop out the contents.
Make filling Of chopped oranges,
bananas, pineapples and the meat
from the apple. Drain of all juice and
mix the fruit with chopped nuts. In
each dish place an apple on white let
tuce leaves, preferably the small ones
from the heart Of the lettuce. and mix
few pieces of parsley In 1t to give q
neat effect. Fill the apples with the
fruits. After the dessert is served
pass a dressing made of mayonnaise
and the fruit juices previously ex-
tracted.
Orange shells may be filled in the
same manner and just as pretty are
the lemon receptacles made from lem.
on rinds. A lettuce salad Is made by
filling lettuce leaves with finely
chopped cabbage and celery. This is
placed in small dish and surrounded
with a layer Of beets run through the
ricer. You have no idea what pretty
decoration the beets make and the
color can be changed by mixing the
nuts with finely chopped celery. The
meat chopper is best for making this.
Save celery tops for decorative pur-
poses.
In making the mayonnaise, one real.
ly should use good egg beater to
make all ingredients very light. for
this gives the desired smoothness to
the mixture. Oils should be gradually
added, and all acids added when the
mayonnaise Is done to prevent 1t from
curdling. BY all means cook your
mayonnaise II you do not wish 1t to
taste OF raw eggs. Use sliced eggs,
picked onions, and olives to garnish
vegetable salads.

One pound sweet almonds, two
ounces bitter almonds, blanched and
chopped fine. Add one pound pow

ingredients so they may be kneaded

and let stand Is minutes or so. Cut
slices from the ball on board

Sift sugar over rolling pin and roll
slices to about one-quarter inch thick.

two tablespoons rosewater; stir slowly
a long time, till It looks quite clear

THE HANDLING
OF SEED CORN
BY Prof. A. T. wianeRs.

All seed corn should be gathered
before the first severe frost and it
may be safely done as soon as the
corn is well dented. This year much
of the corn is very late and many
fields are liable to be damaged by the
first severe frost. and this makes it all
the more important to act promptly
A good way to do is to take handy
basket on the arm or sling a grain
bag over the shoulder by means
Of a stout cord and go into the best
and ripest corn field and select the
best ears from the best hills, taking
care to select only from stalks Of stout
development under normal conditions
and which bear the ear in good po-
s;tion. The selected ears should be
ut once put up in dry, airy place.
where they can dry out naturally.
Artificial drying should not be resort
ed to unless in cases where there Is
not time for natural drying before
severe frosts are liable to occur.
When the ears are still sappy the ap-
plication Of artificial heat may easily
do harm by inducing fermentation, a
very little Of which will injure the
germs and cause weakness. There
are many ways in which corn may be
safely put up for drying. A good
rack may be made of pieces Of five or
six .nch fence lumber set on end and
common plastering laths nailed across
the edges on either side opposite each

blocks of regular size. 30 that they
will pack solidly into the ice house
without leaving spaces between them.
A regular cross-cut saw with one han
die removed will answer the PURPOSE.
The ice derrick is convenient and
safer to use for lifting the cakes from
the water and hoisting into the wagon
or sleigh box, Use two strong white
oak poles to make the derrick and
sweep. The upright, B, may be cut
from any strong piece Of lumber. or
made up by spiking together two
pieces of 2x4 studding. It should be
IL to 15 feet long and well braced at
the base, as shown in the sketch. The
bottom should be smooth In order to
slide freely over the ice.
The sweep, @, should be about 16
feet long, or over, with rope at
tached to each end. The sweep is
pivoted on top Of the upright, B, from
oneQuarter to one-third projecting

Washing and ironing Wisdom.

Put clothespins In a small basket
that has a hook made of wire on the
handle. Slip the hook over the line
and push the basket along as you hang
the clothes.
Prevent scorching ironing sheet by
tacking a piece of asbestos paper
about IL inches square on end Of board
where the iron is set. The paper will
not burn and 1t saves tho sheet.
On ironing day fold the sheets four
times and lay smooth on the kitchen
or laundry table. then fold the table,
cloths and place on sheets. then pillow
slips. towels, napkins, handkerchiefs.
etc. Then iron each piece as you come
to 1t, and by the time you get to the
sheets they will need but little more
ironing. The work can be done much
quicker and does not require SO many
irons. thereby saving footsteps.
