CARE OF THE KITCHEN.
Clean Walls Are an Essential to
 Sanitary Cooking.

It is not only important to know how to cook, but it is equally impor- tant to know where to cook. Cook ing in dirty kitchen can never pro duce good food. The idea is simply preposterous, yet kitchen walls are left for months-sometimes for years without cleansing.
 In the first place the kitchen wall should have a light tint that the mer- est fleck of dirt can be seen; that the sheerest cobweb can be brushed away; that the tiniest water bug can be discerned. It is all folly expecting clean food in a kitchen with dirty walls.
 Never put wall coating on a kitchen wall that is mixed with hot water or that has glue in it. or sour milk in 1t if mixed with cold water. Glue walls made from horses hoofs colored up with cheap colorings do not indicate good housekeeping. The glue is constantly fecking off, fall favored with glue made from horses hoofs is not appetizing.
 Kitchen walls to be thoroughly sat isfactory should be alabastined the same as every other wall in the house. They should be coated regu- larly in the spring and fall of each year with light tint.
 The care of the pantry requires constant attention. The walls should be brushed over every year, the dishes removed from the shelves which should be thoroughly wiped with hot water. If there are ant holes or any other insects In the pan tries thick putty of the wall coat ing can be made and all the ant holes, even small mice holes can be filled with it which will protect the pantry from the incursions of disagreeable insects and mice.

How They Are Disposed Of by Big
 Manufacturing Concerns.

Manufacturers who put out their keeping their output up to the stand. ard. Big concerns whose goods are widely advertised and are known for their excellency will not allow defec. tive articles to go from their factories. Everything is inspected, and it must be perfect before the brand is allowed to be marked upon it.
 In the large cutlery factories, the silverware manufacturing plants, the collar and shirt factories, and the like, regardless of what care is exercised, defects will be found in a certain per centage of the work turned out In cutlery the temper of blade may be uneven; the handle may be marred, the lining may be imperfect, and all such defects cause the knife to be discarded, that is, thrown out and not marked with the brand, if the maker has reputation to maintain. In shirt factories the defective shirts are placed aside just the same, and so it is with hundreds of manufactured 5dIIiCicS. All luSSt -dIJlC1GSs are UcdQ loss to the manufacturer unless they be remodeled or disposed of at a cost covering the expense of the raw mate rial and the time of employers used in their making. Thus manufacturers welcome a means of playing even," of disposing of this damaged stock so as to prevent loss.
 In many cases the damaged goods are sold to 'job-lot" men who auction them off to small jobbers. But the majority of these goods are sold by contract to large houses located in the big cities, and it may be said that fully 50 per cent. of the goods that these houses handle are either of the damaged class known as seconds" or prison made or contract goods, cheap. ly turned out in sweat houses.
 A number of concerns have con- tracts with these houses for all the of" goods made. These goods are wrapped up in such way as to cover their defects. The concern buys them for about 30 to 40 per cent. below prices at which perfect goods can be had in the markets. Thus it can be seen how some concerns can make low prices on goods that look about as well as regular dealers carry, but which are far inferior.

Commercial Travellers Interested.


 There are more than 100000 com mercial travellers in the United States. These men are trade mis- sionaries. They are a very necessary cog in the commercial wheel. While there are some who take the view that they are not producers, they are nevertheless important in the system duced. The successful travelling man is a close student of human nature. His vocation is such as calls for a high class of intelligence, particularly as to trade conditions and the lines which he represents. His keen ob- servation of the trend of affairs has made him pronounced home-trader. protecting the business of the small city and town. Were trade in mer. cantile lines concentrated in the large cities, the field for the traveller would be narrowed. Thus we find him strong combatant of systems that mean concentration. Circum- stances have made him as equally in- terested in protection of local trade of merchants as the merchants them selves, and he Is also interested on this account in the welfare of the peo- pie who are the customers of the merchants. The force and power of the great army of travellers in the United States is not to be considered lightly. Their influence Is wide. will 1,N willing to work most harmon1ously with the townspeople and the resi- dents of rural districts in the matter of home protection.
