Orange Mafmalade.

Early in the fall bought a dozen
oranges which were too sour to be pala-
table and I decided to make them into
marmalade. Not finding a recipe that
just suited me experimental, the result
being SO satisfactory that I will give it
to you.
After making the drahges Hice and
clean [ quartered the rind and removed
it. This [ put into kettle of water
and boiled few minutes, poured this
water off and put on a second time, then
third and then a fourth, in which I
cooked them till tender. In the mean
time [ sliced the oranges into another
kettle, having removed the seeds and
core, and cooked until tender, which
only required few minutes. I then
rubbed both through a coarse wire veg
etable strainer or frying basket. Then
[ measured the mixture and put an equal
quantity of sugar and cooked it until
thick. It was delicious and every one
who tasted it pronounced it the best
ever. made it again few days ago,
this time putting the rinds through a
Rollman food chopper, which I find
quicker and easier, but they could be
shredded or minced fine. Mrs r.

SOME RELISH DISHES.

It is in the spring of the year that the
appetite is most eapricious and must be
coaxed, and that the system, clogged
with the heavy diet Of winter, demands
change of food, something which will
impart tone to the sluggish blood. If
this fact were more generally recognized,
there would be less need for so-called
"spring tonics," which are so much used
at that season.
The enterprising farmer cannot only
make this revolution of diet possible, but
easy; and the housewife who does not
serve some relishing dish which has dis
tinct1y spring-like flavor each day is neg
lectful of her duty in culinary matters.
A few suggestive recipes are appended:
Poached Green, Orlions-Rem0ve the
tops, Wash clean, and cook fifteen min
utes in boiling salted water; then pour
ove' the onions one cup rich milk, Or
chicken broth; return to the fire; let boil
of chopped parsley. Simmer five min
utes, season with salt and white pepper,
and arrange for individual serving on
rounds of buttered toast:
Spinach with Egg.-Look over the spin
ach and wash in severa1 waters; put on
to cook in a closely covered stew kettle,
without water; boil thirty minutes,
drain, chop fine, return to the stew-ket
tie, add large spoonful of butter, one
teaspoonful of sugar, a dash of grated
nutmeg, and salt and pepper to season.
Beat until hot and smooth; turn into
hot serving dish, and cover with a dress
ing made Of the yolks of four hard boiled
eggs rubbed to paste, with one tea
spoonful each of melted butter, cream
and lemon juice. Garnish with a border
of the chopped whites of the eggs.
Spinach Salad Prepare and cook
spinach as directed in the preceding
recipe; drain and chop fine; add the
chopped white of a hard boiled egg and
marinate with French dressing. Place
slice of hard boiled egg in the bottom
of individual charlotte russo molds; fill
up with the prepared spinach and stand
on ice, or in very cold place, until firm;
then unmold, garnish with crisp let
tuce, and dress with mayonnaise.
New Beets with Butter Sauce.-Select
new beets of uniform size; wash and dry
them, being careful neither to break the
skin nor to sever the tiny rootlets, which
would set free the juices, thereby rob-
bing the vegetables of it's wholesome
properties as we'll as it's color. Cover
with boiling water and boil forty five
minutes; drain, remove skins, cut first
into slices, and then into strips. Season
melted butter with salt, pepper and vine
gar. Pour hot over the beets and serve
at once.
Spring Radishes.-Select the small red
breakfast radishes, wash clean and cut
away all but an inch of the stems; cut
the skin and turn half way back. Serve

Strawberry RECIPES.

of the strawberry puts a temporary end
to her troubles.
The most common way to serve them,
of course, is with sugar and cream, or
some other appropriate sauce, but the
cook will make a great mistake if she
contents herself with these methods, for
the strawberry may be served in many
ways and cooked in countless fashions.
Strawberry Dump1ings. - Everybody
has eaten strawberry shortcake, of
course, but how many have eaten straw
berry dumplings? Little known though
they may be, it is impossible to eat them
without feeling that this is a dessert
that would we'll bear repetition. To make
them, take one egg, cup of sweet milk,
a tablespoonful of melted butter, a heap
ing teaspoonful of baking powder, and
flour enough to make a batter that will
be a trife thicker tnan that which is
commonly used for griddle cakes. Pour
little of this butter into buttered
tins, or porcelain cups; place num-
Der of well-sweetened berries in the
center and cover them with more batter;
then steam for about half an hour. Serve
with a sauce made by mashing some
strawberries and incorporating them into
an ordinary hard butter and sugar sauce.
Strawberry Pudding.-First convert
your strawberries into pulp, being sure
that you have about quart of the ber-
ries and juice when You are done. Then
crumble enough stale cake to give you
pint of crumbs; add the yolks of four
we'll beaten eggs, mixing tablespoonful
of sugar into them as you are beating
them; add, also, about two tablespoon
fuls of Madeira wine, teaspoonful of
vanilla, or some other extract, and, final
ly, the strawberry pulp. When these
ingredients have become thoroughly
blended, whip the whites of the eggs to
a stiff froth and fold them in; then put
the mixture into buttered pudding
mold; cover the top with layer of dry
cake crumbs; set the mold in a pan of
hot water, and bake in a moderate oven
for about half an hour. Serve combi-
nation of whipped cream and well-sweet-
ened strawberry pulp as a sauce.
Strawberry Salad.-First, cut the
strawberries into halves; add just as
much sugar as you think they will stand,
and afterwards to each quart of berries,
add wineglassful of brandy and one
tablespoonful of lemon juice. Chill by
packing in ice, and serve with whipped
cream.
Strawberry Punch.-This is easily pre-
pared, and the result will be so delecta-
BILE that you will be certain to repeat
the operation. C11t some Strawberries in
to slices and put enough of these into
individual punch glasses to fill each one
third full. Fill the glasses with strained
orange juice, and add powdered sugar to
taste. Then, either put them on the ice
to become thoroughly chilled, or add
enough Clipped ice to make them sufG-
GENTLY cold.

CHANGES MADE IN

OF HARDSHIPS RELATING
TO TOUCHBACK.
Center Must Not Fake or Feint Pass
Forward Pass Is Slightly Revised
by Committee.

NEW YORK, March PA change
was made today in the football rules
relating to a touchback so as to re-
lieve some of the hardships of the
team down under its own goal, es-
pecially when it has been forced there
otherwise than by rushing. The new
rule gives the team making the touch
back two rushes before the kick while
the old rule only provided for the
option of kicking out or keeping the
ball for a scrimmage on the line. A
rule was adopted providing that when
center feints or makes fake at
tempt to pass the ball his team shall
be penalized five yards. Another
change makes the rules provide that
no penalty can be imposed to carry
the ball over the line either for a touch
down or a safety. 1t was also provided
that hereafter play must Immediately
stop when the referee blows his whis-
tie for a foul.

NEW PLACER
MIME MACHINE

A machine to save free gold and
the flour and float gold, has
been invented and patented by Charles
T. Roach of Caldwell and is being tried
out on the Warm Springs placers on
the Snake river by c. Griffen of Nampa
and Caullxins & Sewell of Caldwell
The machine consists of a vertical
cylinder two feet in diameter and three
feet high, holding 10 horizontal copper
plates coated with mercury on both top
and bottom. In the bottom of the cyl
inder itself are cups holding several
pounds of free mercury to catch any
amalgam or free gold that may escape
from the plates above. In use the cyl
inder is rotated rapidly so as to bring
all the sand in contact with the plates
and cups holding the mercury.
The inventor claims that by means of
this machine the poor miner can save
his god without the need of extensive
workings, such as bitches, nozzles and
long sluices. Just what provision has
been made to prevent the Touring and
consequent loss Of the mercury and
amalgam the inventor does not state /;
nor does he explain how he intends to
dispose of his tailings in any great
quantity. A number Of machines based
on this principle have been tried ever
since the combination Of copper, mer-
curry and gold has been known, and if
this one is a success the inventor has
solved a problem in gold mining that
has hopelessly puzzled the best mining
men for centuries.
