FIVE DELICIOUS
PINEAPPLE RECIPES
Sliced Pineappies.

Cut the pineapple into slices a quar-
ter of an inch thick, after the rtnd has
been removed, then cut the slices in
halves. The half slices are stood on
edge in a circle with a mound of pow
dered sugar for the center of the cir
Gle. The flavor of pineapple rs much
better when it is cut in thick slices.
The less taste of the knife the better.
Pineapple With Rice.
Remove the rfnd from the pineapple
and cut across in slices a quarter of
an inch thick, then cut the slices into
even quarters. Arrange the quarters,
standing on edge ~dfagonally around a
mound of boiled rice. Place the spout
of the pine in the center OF the mound
of rice. Have the rice sweetened and
Favored. Sherry or maraschino are
excellent for this purpose. Cornstarch
pudding, blanc mango or any simple
Jelly may be used instead of the rice.
Cored Pineapple Circles
Cut the rfnd from a pineapple and
cut into slices q quarter of an inch
thing. With a small biscuit cutter
stamp out the hard c%enters, leaving the
pineapple cut into rings. Arrange he
rings, overlapping. in a circle. Sprinkle
them with graduated sugar and gar
nish with a small leaf of the pine
sprout laid In each hole.
Pulled Pineapple.
This Is a delicious way of serving a
pineapple when it is very ripe. Cut
off the rfnd and with a small. pointed
knife take out the eyes. Put a fork
in the top Of the hard core to hold it,
and with a second fork tear off the soft
pulp. Pile the pieces in a glass dish
and sprinkle them pIentffully with
gugar. Let 1t stand q few minutes.
Pineapple Puddings-
Crate a pineapple fine. Mix well to-
gether a cupful of sugar and four eggs.
then mix them with the pineapple pulp.
Turn the mixture into a mold, set the
mold in a pan Of water and bake slow
ly until IT is stiffened like a baked
custard. When cold remove the mold
and decorate with whipped cream.

FARM NOTES.

In mixed breeding or cross DreeuiHS
nothing is accomplished beyond the hrst
cross. While a few good individuals may,
be secured, the tendency is for the pro-E
geny to be below rather than above the
average A man conducting his breeding
in a haphazard way is contending with
fearful odds. cropping in the dark following
a will-o-the-wisp. In a hundred years
he would be just where he started. Incl
dentally this is just what we have been
doing in this country from the beginning,
and the reason why we have so few pure
breeds of live stock and are, after all this
time, sending our good money across the
water for pure bred sires which We should
produce at home
After animals have been graded up 20
a. practical purity of blood the longer they
are bred along this line the more prepo-
tent they become, and the more certain
that the offspring will uniformly possess
general excellence of form. quality, ac-
ton and utility.
The same is, Of course, true of all live
stock. The only efrtain method of raising
the average standard Of excellence is by
persistent breeding to sires Of the same
breed until the native blood is obliterated
and the progeny uniformly possess all
those desirable qualities of the pure breed
employed-Geo. IL Glover, d. ". M, Col

Toe many consumers and TOO few pro-
ducers- helps to explain the high prices
prevailing for thu u~ecessaries of life. AT
no previous time in the history of this
country have the attractions of farm life
been so great or the returns for Labor
so lasge. Yet the east IS fGii of unem-
ployea men who are needed badly 70 de-
velop the. agricultural resources of the,
country. There is, plenty Of land avail
able and no good reason Why any should
go hungry. The matter OF the distribu-
ton of lab0n furnishes a most fertile field.

paEtment of labor and commerce.-Denwer
Stockman.
The pasture is one of the most import
afag fields on the farm. Good grass and a
water supply make a good, pasture.

The Speed Of a Slow Train.

General #. d. Grant at a recent din
ner said OF a slow railway In the
South: This line was so slow that
the people took to l~ampooning It In the
press. Thus one Memorial day a plant
err wrote to the Rapier. the leading pa
per of his district:
The Editor of the Rapier-Dear Sir:
Is there no way to put a stop to beg

Pineapple Puddinqs.
cItNe,Ne TO ONE SHADE.

In this season of many coiors it IS
surprising that any woman should cling
to one shade, yet ii is something of a
fashionable fad to select one tone and
cling to il. One very fashionable wom-
an makes it her habit this season to-
wear purple. Being an artist in dress
she damages TO vary il sufficiently to
get a great deal of smartness out of the
color. One of her smartest summer
gowns is a purple messaline, with
which she wears a purple satin coat.
Another very handsome dress has a
purple broadcioth skirt. while the coat
is purple taffeta picked out with pip
ings Of white and some wonderful
shaded embroideries.

guarding it is no longer in evidence.
Ever since an express company bring
ing shipment of $7000,001 In gold

wagons on which sat men armed with
Winchester rifles. the old method has
gone ont of vogue. The result of
this single. case killed 1t for such a
mob collected, attracted by the sight
of armed men. that it was impossible
to unload the coin. As result new
style of guarding this treasure has
grown up. Few people realize that
when they pass the subtreasury they
are passing a veritable fortress. Such,
however, is the case Gold and other
forms of currency averaging $3.50 06O.-

which weigh 10000 pounds each and
cost 100000 Within the subtreasary
there is an armament of 100 rifles
with $4,000 rounds of cartridges, 100
revolvers with 1900 rounds and chief
of all gatling guns with $4,000
rounds of ammunition. With this
armament any attacking mob could
be repulsed in few moments. In
