The Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie.

Since the days Of the early settlers.

Holmes termed this appetizing article
of food-has suggested all manner of
rare culinary triumphs, of which
the piece de resistance is our native
American pumpkin pie; but while
it is generally conceded to be To
the manner born" in New England
there is no reason why this CASTRO
nomic triumph is to be reserved for
any special section or class of house
wives. The secret of its prepare
ton may be easily acquired and
certainly no Twentieth Century chief
can improve on our grandmothers'
recipes, which if followed carefully
will furnish morsel pleasing to the
most epicurean of tastes. The delicate
flavor of the pumpkin is developed
only by long and gentle applica-
tion of heat, so when preparing it
for pies, always stew it for three
or four hours, then mix it with the
other ingredients. To each cupful
of pulp add two we'll beaten eggs,
half cupful of sugar, table
spoonful of cornstarch, dissolved in
a cupfuI of cream, hale teaspoonful
each of ginger and cinnamon and a
teaspoonful each of ginger and
cinnamon and teaspoonful of lemon
extract. add large tablespoonful of
melted butter and fill the paste full

Forestry In Japan.

just at the time when this country
is beginning to struggle with the pro-
blen of outstanding its forest re-
sources, of protecting it's mountain
slopes. and of improving the water
ways, it is interesting to know that
the Japanese have successfully at
tackled the same problem, before the
land suffered severely from the evil
effects following deforestation. The
far sighted people of Nippon have
foreseen the results the destruction Of
their extensive mountain forests, and
have safeguarded themselves by
placing all of these under government
control.
The practice of forestry has been
carried on in Japan fol. a longer time
than in any other country. For
1900 years the people of Japan have
been planting and growing forests,
with a success that has been little
short of marvellous. Under careful
management. the Japanese forests
yield very high financial returns.
This high yield is only made Pei
sible by the close utilization of every
bit of the tree so that scarcely a twig
is wasted. and by the improvement
of the growth of their forests by
carefully conducted thinning and
tending. The woods are first Trimmed
at the age of thirteen years, and then
every FIVE years after that up to the
time of the final harvest, at 12C
years.
1t Was with the opening up of the
hitherto inaccessible mountain torests
that the Jananese government be-
came most intensely interested in
forestry. The mountain were still
government land, 50 all that wa:
necessary to protect them was to place
restrictions on the sale and cutting
OF timber. This was effected by de-
claring the forests on the steep slopes
as reserved forests, in which the only
cutting should be done under govern
ment direction. The forests on agri
cultural lands, not needed for protec
ton, are classed as available forests,
and here the cutting is not so careful
~ restricted.
Thus Japan has effectually pre-
vented the stripping of her mountain
slopes before any great damage has
been done. In some districts, where
the mountains are near the towns
the steep slopes have already beer
cleared, and this has resulted il
floods and the washing down of soil
from the slopes on to the farm lands,
But these cases have been exceptional
and have merely served as warn
ing which Japan has needed before
it was too late to prevent widespread
destruction.

Wethered has done. Since DR..
Wethered's devastating DR.. H. 3.
Candy has been in charge and doing
excellent work for the patients at
the health farm
The health farm is divided into a
sanatorium occupying about six acres,
and the farm proper consisting of ten
acres in aOUle orchard. ten acres III
garden and eight acres in grain and
small fruits The farm proper is being
conducted in most efficient manner.
The orchard and truck garden, to-
gether with the poultry and dairy, are
sufficient source of supply for the
table and even has been proving a
source of revenue. Not only does it
make the table board al that could
be desired, but there is an abundance,
and the possibilities of the farm could
hardly be said to have been fully de-
Veloped.
The farm is electrically lighted
throughout, has its own water works
and sewer system, and, in fact, the
sanitary arrangements are so perfect
that they have been heartily COM
mended by the state board of health
The sanatorium consists of an in
Urinary with beds for 16 men, where a
patient must spend few days week
as the case may demand, in absolute
rest. The idea of the management is
not to receive men who are in need of
hosDital attention, but rather to en-
courage men who are run down or, be-
cause of tubercular trouble, need a
few months rest, and who are able to
take care of their own tents and come
into the dining room for meals.
There are AZ of these individual
tents into which the patients ''gradu-
ate" from the sanatorium, and these
are comfortably furnished and con-
structed in the most scientific manner
for outdoor living. Each case is given
individual study and care by the physi-
clan and the results are obtained
through proper food. fresh air, rest and
discipline The health farm is con-
Quoted as a home wherein the resi-
dents themselves adopt a high stand
ard OF conduct and honor, and the
spirit OF the association and the gen.
eral care of the Denver Young Men
Christian association is exercised
over the health farm all the while.
The social life of the health farm is
an attractive feature and constantly
being improved, as is the religious
feature Of the camp. In the assembly
tent there is no scarcity of games, and
in addition there is splendid croquet
ground which is popular with the
men as healthful outdoor recreation;
a splendid library Of about 500 mis-
celIaneOus volumes is maintained, and
donations of books are solicited and
are being received from time to time.
The definite religious work is re-
ceving the proper emphasis. A COM
mittee has been appointed among the
men who will have charge of meet
ings, Bible classes, ETC., and at pres
ent two services are held every Sun
day, at S:15 a, m, and a twilight SER
vice at 6:45 .. m. These meetings are
always well attended and deeply APP
preciated by the men, and the services
have long since proven as helpful as
the association mems meetings in the
cities. The interest taken in the new

To the sacrifice made by a kind
hearted Colorado farmer and his wife
five years ago more than 500 men from
40 states of the union and seven for
eign countries owe their lives, as ev-
Idenced by the latest annual report
Of the Denver Young Mems Christian
Association health farm. The only
institution of its kind in-th world,
this farm, which was the home of
David Brothers and his wife, and was
donated by them as haven for the
Consumptives who were coming to
: Denver hopeful but surely to be stranded
has proved the success it deserves to
be; therefore the association repre-
sentatives who have undertaken to
raise $4,000 for enlargement of its
facilities anticipate hearty response
they are assured at least that 500
sically-regenerated, newly-hopeful
men win gratefully come to their as
sistance to whatever extent possible
and boost with all the power of their
re-created lungs.
It was long after the establishing of
the health farm that it becomes rec
ognized as an important department
of the Young Mems Christian associa-
tions of North America, and the east
ern associations began showing their
interest in the practical workings of
the farm by sending members in need
of outdoor life and systematic living
to it, and by assisting the project
financially. So far, more than $4,000
has been contributed in cash to the
maintenance of the farm.
In 1908, w. M. Banner, then general
secretary of the Denver Young Mems
Christian association, presented the
great need of the association to its
friends and the public 1t was then
that Mr.. and Mrs David Brothers re-
sponded by giving to the association
their 34-acre farm, on which they had
lived many years, and the only condi-
ton Of the donation was that it would
always be used as a health farm for
young men of the Young Mems Chris
ton association needing open-air treat
ment The kindly act of the rancher
AID his wife stirred others. DR.. E. p.
George, reading paragraph commend
ing the idea, promptly subscribed
$4,000. Other donations amounting to
$4,000 enabled the association to start
the project formally in May, 1908, and
the health farm has been maintained
ever since as a department of the Den
yer Young Mems Christian associa-
ton.

 A rush Is bound to come to the re- zion this fall and winter and though Rouse will be the center of interest the many surrounding camps are sure to get benefit. It is a great field for prospectors and Arizona will welcome all that come. The summers are hot out there, but from now till the first Of June the region has a climate fit for Paradise. /
