NOODLES FOR THE SOUP.
Time Used for Their Preparation !,
Spent to Advantage.

The good old-fashioned chicken
noodle soup is hard to beat, II the
noodles are homemade. The trouble is
too many modern cooks will not take
the time for the necessary rolling.
without which the paste is worthless.
To make them. mix two wcll-bsaten
eggs. with enough -four to make q stiR
dough and knead until smooth. II .
very white paste is liked. only the
whites of the eggs are used.
Divide the mixture into equal parts
and roll each into q round ball, which
is then put on q well-foured board for
rolling. A glass roller by its smooth
ness of surface is excellent for this
part of the process, as the noddles
must be rolled until the cakes are n
most transparent
The cutting is likewise important,
the old-fashioned method of having
noodles too long for graceful eating 10
not to be commended.
Before cutting. dry OF each sheet Of
the leste with napkin; then divide 1t
into halves and quarters and pile
them one on top Of the other 20 the
edges are even. Cut into narrow
strips with sharp knife. The more
threadlike the noodles are the better
Set them away to dry and they are
ready for soup.

From the News
A. c. Stowell, who was . resident Of
Boon County some twenty five years
ago, is here this week looking after the
business interests Of the late j. d.
Brewer. Mr. Stovell was the owner of
q large ranch near Cedar Rapids. and
was one Of the entsrprising citizens Of
the county. He was president Of the
fair association and did much to pro.
mote the interests OF that institution.
The oat crop is bound to be light one
owing to the rust which hes been e.
pecially bad this year. The majority Of
the farmers have had to harvest their
oats before they were ripe. Winter
wheat is turning out from Is to Is bu-
shells to the acre. Prospects for bum
per corn crop in this county could not
be better. With plenty OF moisture and
warm weather it is making rapid head
way and the stand is excellent.
O. NJ. Ootterman arrived here Mon
day, coming down from Petersburg,
where he went first to see his parents.
He has just arrived from Manila where

the head of the postal department Of

good position in the home service and
he is fully competent to fill any from
Postmaster General down. Az governor
Of the PHILIPPINES w. 81. Taft is fully
cognizant of Mr.. Ootterman's ability
and reliability. In event Of Taft's elec-
tion as president, he will hardly over

HINTS FOR THE HOME COOK.
Beware Of Undertaking Menu Beyond
the Capacity.

Those who know what tastes good
and understand combinations Of food
that are appetizing often write de-
lightful menus, and close OF with the
statement that this simple dinner. or
luncheon, as it may be, is easily pre-
pared. The experienced will see, how
ever, that the work demanded is far
es or the skill of the average maid.
The impossibility of serving the
courses where one person must be
both waitress and cook is also evident
to the initiated. In fact, the available
means of serving. menu must be
taken into account. as well as the
palate and pOcketbook. Otherwise
things that should be hot will be cold
and cold dishes will be unappetizingly
lukewarm.
When invited guests are expected II
would be better not to serve over
three courses and have each a. near
perfection as skill and care can make
them. When q woman must be her
own cook and waitress and act a
hostess as well, she should avoid fried
foods and anything that must not be
delayed a moment in serving. The
young mistress receiving her guests
in light silk and stepping back into
the kitchen to fry croquettes for their
dinner is a pleasing fiction In the
chapter on dinner giving made easy,
but a dinner of roast beef and vege.
tables or something else that can be
kept hot a few minutes without injury
is much more practical.
II kitchen is as neat and clean al
tidy housekeeper is apt to have her
own workroom. q pretty white wash
waist and skirt are the best to wear
when finishing cooking the company
dinner. The advice bear reiteration
which warns against undertaking any.
thing in the menu for guests that ID
unfamiliar. Try it on the family at
least once and see II it be within your
ability as q cook.

These are trying days on the farm
both for the men folks and the women.
1t is early 20 rise and late to bed, with
fourteen to eighteen hours hard
work between. The important thing
for the sisters to do is 10 get through
this time just as easily as possible and
without adding to their heavy burdens
by unnecessary worry. One can do an
immense amount of physical labor with
out harm il the mind is free and clear
but when mental worry is added to
physical labor We have q combination
which has proved the death Of many q

work in the very best way possible. but

ton if everything does not come out ex-
sctly as you would like to have it.
