Rrose and Stirahnut-

Tho "Brose" of Robert Burns is the
common way In Scotland of preparing
the national stan of life. The oatmeal
is merely stirred into boiling water
without salt. This same dish is very
popular in Ireland where It is called
stirabout. There however, the foun.
dation of the dish is white corumeal.
II is common in Ireland 10 hear a pale
faced person described as having n
face like bowl Df stiraDOrt."
Another much.uscd dish ir Scotland
is that known among the poorer
classes as "bannocks." These are
made from the oatmeal called
ground" because Il is ground between
rollers in their primitive way instead
of being cut or crushed after modern
methods. Many prefer It because it
contains more of the flour. To make
bannocks, take four cups OF the oat-
meal, add sufI cient water to make a
batter and very little salt Roll out
into any shape desired, and bake In a
moderate oven.

part OF the house with the kitchen;
still it is shut of by two doors,
provision that seems necessary to shut
out kitchen noises and the odors of
cooking.
English and Canadian houses, tho
more pretentious ones, almost invari-
ably have a direct connection between
the front door and the back part of
the house without going through the
living rooms. This plan has not pre-.
vailed to the same extent In the
United States, but there are a good
many PEOPLE who Ike to have the
front hall and the kitchen connected.
Every woman is born with natural
desire to keep servant, and every
woman expects TO do so some time
in The future. and they expect her to
answer the door bell. The fact that
80 per cent. OF them never reach the
height OF their ambition does not ap-
pear to lessen feminine sentiment In
this respect. However, a passageway
of this kind probably is just as con
venient and Just as desirable for the
lady herself as for any help that she
may employ.
There is a splendid corner In the
front hall for a hat rack and Umbrella,

have been frequently made by fashion

OF the house TO the living room and

rooms with good windows and unob.
structed hight, while the smaller kitch.

A Pie Chimney.

Every cook has had the unpleasant
experience Of having the juice run
out of the pie during baking. She
smells the good things wasting in the
oven-which, by the way, she must
later clean Of the burnt particles. A
simple method OF obviatlng this is to
make u tiny opening in the upper
crust and insert small roll Of paper
vertically. This allows the steam to
escape as from a chimney, and the
Juice will remain In the nie.

from the cultivation OF rubber have

gance in management and operation.
No one can predict at what period the
fall in prices will begin, but 1t will
probably not be for another ten years
at least and may not be in twice that
time.
The best way to keep up the price
is to produce only rubber of the best
quality or of as good quality as is
compatible with normal rather than
extravagant management When
prices begin to 90 down, the planta.

vigor of growth on the plantations OF
the island is remarkable. Many trees
show a growth OF from 10 TO Is feet
OF more during a single season, with
g'rth measure nents in proportion.
While the trees on the Hawaiian plan.
tations are more or less subject TO
fungus diseases and insect attacks, no
specially-destructiv disease and no
insect pest peculiar to this plant alone
has as yet gained entrance to the
territory. The diseases and pests are
those affecting forest trees in general
The methods of tapping which the
Hawaiian station has developed and
the preliminary experiments already
made indicate that healthy average
trees OF the Ceara variety, which
have attained a trunk diameter of six
to eight inches at three feet from the
ground. will yield from five to ten OF
more pounds of crude rubber each
per annum. AS most OF the Hawaiian
plantations have made their begin
nlngs on the prospect of securing one
pound Of rubber per tree per annum
at the end of Ave years, II is the
sanguine belief that the cultivation Of
rubber trees OF this variety is on as
sure and firm a foundation in Ha.
wall as in any other part of the
world. Furthermore. the Ceara va.
riety seems better adapted TO Ha
waiian climate, soils. and conditions
than any other rubber-producing tree
which has as yet been introduced Its
extreme rapidIty OF growth and its
adaptabllity TO widely-varying oondi
tions of soil and climate, Its large
yields, and its early maturity indicate
that its cultivation win be the most
advantageous.
