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 a 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 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. 1t is all folly expecting
clean food in a kitchen with dirty
walls.
Never put a wall coating on a
kitchen wall that is mixed with hot
water or that has glue in it, or sour
milk in it 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 fiecking off, fall.
ing into the food and the idea Of food
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 eacf
year with a light tint.
The care of the pantry requires
constant attention. The walls shoulC
be brushed over every year, tht
dishes removed from the shelves
which should be thoroughly wipet
with hot water. If there are an
holes or any other insects in the pan
tries a thick putty of the wall coat
ing can be made and all the ant holes
even small mice holes can be file
with it which will protect the pantr
from the incursions Of disagreeabl
insects and mice.

serves to enter the earth more or less
deeply as the plow is drawn forward,
and carry the excavated material to
the surface. At it's forward end this
blade is braced by means of a support
D, which is tasted to the beam A. At
the forward end of the beam A is a
clevis bar E, which is secured at its
upper end to draft bar F, extending
to the rear of the beam A. In this
cieyis bar are a series of apertures
adapted to receive a link to which a
pulley block is connected. This block
serves to receive the cable that is
passed to the windlass or drum OF the
traction engine, for the purpose OF
drawing the car forward. Owing to
the lightness of this plow, it may
readily be loaded upon truck and
transported from place to place.

BITS FOR THE FARMER.

Probably one-half of the value OF all
harvard manure made in the United
states is lost through neglect OF 1t
or of not knowing the best methods
for handling and using it.
In the United States much OF the
farm land needs tiling, even the land
that is not subject to being over
flowed.
Every particle of barnyard manure
should be gotten under the surface OF

THE HORSE OR MoToR2
What Kind Of Force for Flowing Shall
Be Used2

On the ordinary farm the animal is
still of greater service than any me
chanical force. The steam plow is
good on the large area, but the man
of small means and having under his
control a small farm will depend on
the horse or the OK, the mule or the
COW. Which kind he shall use must
be governed by the conditions under
which he works. 1t may be surpris-
ing to those living on the prairies OF
the west to learn that even oxen are
still used for the work of plowlng'
Rut on hilly. stony land the OK Is
stiu valuable for a plow animal. The
fact that he is slow makes MIN lhe
more valuable, for when the pIoW Is
moving among stones and roots 1t Is
better that it move slowly than rap
idlv But on the lands of the west
saws the Farmers Review, 1as',
moving animal is, needed anu
the OK is outclassed. The same
variations apply to the use OF plo~s
drawn by electric motors ana y

evreriments have recently been made
IN Germany to determine at just Wha'
