LONDON HORSE SHOW

DECORATIONS TO BE SUPERB

Amount of Prizes Largest Ever Of

Amount of Prizes Largest Ever Of
Fered-Seats For 100000 Persons.
London wants to Guido New York's
record for horse shows. Last year the
difficulties in finding superlatives ade-
Quately TO describe the wonders of the
international horse show at Olympia
were great; this year they are heroic.
Lord LOnsdale told the New York
Americans London correspondent that
the show this year. to be held in June,
will be by far the greatest spectacle of
it's kind ever seen. Some of the details
on which he based this assertion are
these:
First, the show is to be held in the
biggest show building in the world. a
building in the annex of which Madison
Square Garden in New York can be
comfortably tucked away.
During the nine days which the show
lasts there will be seating accommoda-
ton for over 100000 persons.
An additional 10000 spectators will
he able TO view the performances from
the promenade which is to be con-
structed around three sides of the
arena
There are over $500 entries in the
various classes. and over a thousand
borses will be shown. The value of
these horses will exceed $4,000
Two thousand attendants, including
grOoms and ushers, to say nothing of
judges and officials, will be required.
The prizes to be given exceed in
amount those ever offered at any show
IN the world.
Special trains will be run to Olympia
from every part of the United King
dom.
Every European nation viii be repre-
scented in the entries
The show is already such an assured
success that seats are being SOLD at a
premium, and the moment the doors
open at Olympia seats viii be Oh sale
for the 1909 show.
The insurance effected at Lloyd's
alone makes extraordinary reading.
olympia itself has beer Insured against
IRE for 100000. The public are in
sured against any kind OF accident Cor
$4,000 the grooms for a similar
amount and the 300 horses which are
to be stabbed in the building for $1O0,-

placed for another $4,000
The most striking feature of this
years show will be tie Introduction of
promenade like that NJ the New York
show. Last year the directors. after
turning away thousands owing TO the
lack of seating capacity ANA listening
TO the many complaints, care to the
conclusion that the public vent as
much to the show to see each other
and get a close look at society as to
see the horses. Reluctantly they came
to the conclusion that a promenade
must be added.
This promenade, which will surround
the arena on three sides. will accommo-
date about 10000 spectators a day. 1t
will have twenty-oue bays or boxes Of
thirty-two feet each, and each bay will
contain lounges, settees, easy chairs
and refreshment tables.
The promenade floor will be covered
with 5000 square yards of imitation
green grass carpet measuring in length

FROZEN TEA NEW DAINTY.
Introduced at Washington by wife Of
Chinese Minister.

Frozen tea is among the delicacies
Of the season, and is regarded as de-
lightful. The way Nine. WI wife OF
the Chinese diplomat and wit. serves
1t is interesting. The tea is made as
carefully as If an empress was to i'm
bibe it.
Freshly y-boiled water is poured on
the leaves and is permitted to steep
for exactly six minutes. when 1t Is
poured into an ice-cold mold and put
into the freezer.
Frozen tea is served with one table
spoonful of frozen unnavored cream
and one of lemon ice on the regular
frozen-dainty saucer. It is the COM
ing ice and already is growing in
popularity.
Another frozen food fad relates to
nutmeg canteloupe. The meat Of the
melon is scraped out and frozen with
q slight taste of sugar. cinnamon and
nutmeg. and is then put back in the
rind and served daIntily with leaves
and flowers at the edges.

A HOT SUPPER DISH.
Suitable for Simple Meal So Popular
on Sunday Nights.

For the simple little supper that
every one wants on Sunday nights
when the maid is out and no one wants
to work the following dish is most ac-
ceptable:
It is a regular chatting dish bit of
cookery and is frequently concocted by
clubmen for an aftertheater supper.
Good-sized tomatoes are skinned,
chopped into tiny pieces and put on
the ice. Half dozen eggs are beaten
up. seasoned with salt and paprika and
a small quantity OF thick cream is
slowly poured in and beaten up.
This mixture is poured into the
hot chafing dish and faxed with a
fork until It is nearly cooked. then the
tomatoes are poured in. and II one
likes the taste of green peppers, few
shreds are added.
These are faxed in with the egg
mixture and almost instantly served
on hot plates.

Kind Of Fence.

Note.-The last three columns of figures
In the above table are offered for the con-
venience of those who wish to know the
approximate annual cost of any given
fence. The figures are obtained by divid-
ing the cost per rod of the fence by the
number of years it Is expected to last and
adding to this the interest on the aver
hay 1t costs on the average farm from
8 TO IL cents per day to feed the same
cow in the barn.
Experiments show that as much
pork can be made from one acre of
good pasture as from one ton of shorts
or corn. The cost of these feeds
varies from SIS to 500 per ton. An
acre Of pasture will save. then, from
$15 to $40 worth of feed. 1t is quite
, evident that in the economical pro-
duction of auimal products good pas
lures are an important factor.
The reason more and better hog
pastures are not used is chiefly due
to the fact that hog fences are quite
expensive. The advent of the woven
wire fence is overcoming this feature
and now land may be fenced hog tight

Science in Housework.

There used to be time when the
young housewife was content to do
things Just as her mother did them.
but In this day of scientific expedients
the object should be to have a way Of
ones own, making sure that 1t is bet
ter than the old way before adopting
it. Above all things the right state of
mind should be brought to the prob
lem OF housework and the young
housekeeper should make up her mind
that her work must be well done, but
that she is not going to be drudge.
Make it as interesting as possible by
planning each thing to be done. not
as task. but as problem to be
solved by getting the best results with
the least expenditure OF energy.

the fence. II Is much easier to fence
hogs into cornfield than to fence
them out, and, as a rule, they do not
make much effort to get out. In case
they do attempt to get out. a barbed
wire stretched along the bottom. or
stakes one or two feet long driven
between posts and left Just enough
above the ground SO that the bottom of
the wire ribbon may be stapled to
them will keep them on the Sght side.
Such fencing will cost from 80 to 40
cents per rod. The amount of fencing
used and the methods employed in
handling 1t (see accompanying table,
will make the cost vary from $1.50 to
three dollars per acre. This will un-
doubtedly prove more profitable in
many cases than husking the corn
and feeding in the yard. especially If
there is good growth of rape or other
catch crop that the hogs can get at
the same time they are getting the
corn. In case this is not done, 1t is
more economical to snap corn that
is to be fed at once than to carefully
husk 1t.
Fencing intelligently Gone offers one
Of the safest investments of any of
the farm improvements. Not alone is 1t
valuable to inclose the regular pasture,
but 1t often makes possible the pastur-
ing off of grain and corn fields after har-

their nesting.
Here Is an answer to such doubters.
1t is only one case among hundreds.
and 1t is far from being the most fla

commentary. perhaps. on human ma
ture that the experience of the bird
protectors has shown that money, cash

in saving the birds than an appeal to
the sympathies OF men and women.
When the day comes that sees no

public property-they belong to all,
are used by all and all are benefited
by them. The sender of letter to a
farmer served by rural delivery may
be Just as much interested in its de-

Mail delivery is public service per-

roads help the farmer more than any
one else, but they are not the only
ones benefited. The country mer-
chant and every one who consumes
farm products gain by good roads. The
fair way. the equitable way and the

the tearing away of their wings and
that in many places on the islands

a precarious living which would be
theirs only until the winter came and
froze their innocent lives. The gulls

There are few sights in nature more
beautiful than the view of a nesting

The black tern has been in such
demand for millinery purposes that
