inland cities as seaports.

We are spending hundreds Of mil
lions of dollars upon Panama, partly
as a military measure, partly to ena-
BILE ships to save two transfers and a
rail-hauI in carrying between the east
and west coasts, partly in spirit of
misunderstanding to give great free
roadway to the world If we spent an
equal sum or even less upon our inter-
nal waters, under systematic plan
of conservation, we would make vir-
tual seaports q Sioux City, Omaha,
Kansas City, Pittsburg, Minneapolis,
st. Louis and Chicago; would save
all the transfers and overland rail-haul
which now burden the grain of the
Northwest and the iron of Pittsburg;
would make it possible for gunboats
of considerable size to hasten to
points nearly everywhere in the int
rior of the country, and to defend with
equal force the shores of the Great
Lakes and those of the Gulf, and in
the end we would have, not from tolls,
but from the by-products of our indus
try, a net return of more than the orig
inal capital every year to nation, state
and individual. All this from the
proper consideration of floating
squash.-John L. Matthews in Success

Utilize the water that drops from
the drain into pan below to cool
cantaloupes and watermelons.
If you do not use artificial ice, find
out where the dealer gets it, or you
may be drinking typhoid all the time.
Never set hot dishes directly on the
ice; above all, do not put meats or
poultry on it without plat under-

Do not let the iceman drop the
ice into the box of the refrigerator.
If it is porcelain lined, it may mean
the purchase of a new one. 2
Rubbing brass beds or any brass

Do not put meat on the ice when
placing it in the refrigerator, as the
ice will draw the favor out of the
meat if it touches it. Keep it on a
platter in the bottom Of the refriger-
ator.
Canned fruits should always be
opened and turned out Of the Jars

Three irons, one and one-half inches
thick and one inch wide are passed

the bottom. They are shown at AAA.
These should come up at least four
inches at the side. .
A trench eight feet long, twenty
inches wide, fifteen inches deep,
should be dug and the vat placed over
it. The trench should be dug SO that
the wind has a straight draught under
the vat. Fill the vat two-thirdsA full
of water The scraping bench should
be set against the side OF the vat.
Light chains, each about eight feet
long, are used to lower anG raise the
hog into the water. These chains
should be fastened at the edge OF the
scraping bench and should be placed
about two feet six inches apart. BY
placing these chains above the vat,
says Prairie Farmer, the hog can be
lowered into the water, and when
scalded, can be readily removed.

PRESERVED GTNGER.

Scrape the roots of green ginger
and lay in cold water twenty minutes.
Cook in three waters, changing from
the hot to cold each time. When
very tender drain and lay in ice
water. For the strip allow pound
and a quarter of sugar for every
pound of ginger root and a cupful OF
water to each pound of sugar. Bring
to boil, skim and continue boiling
and skimming until no more scu3l
rises. Wipe the ginger dry and drop
in the strip that has been cooled.
Leave twenty-four hours; drain and
again heat the strip. While still
blood warm return the ginger and let
it stand fprty-eight hours. Again
drain, heat scalding hot and pour
over the root at once. In a week
once more boil the strip and pour
again, scalding hot, over the root and
cover closely. Ready for use in a
fortnight. w Washington Star.

greeted with loud yells of laughter by
Joe, who had already extricated him
self, and Harry, who, tired of tramp
Ing alone, had come up in time to see
me perform what he termed some very
graceful gymnastics, he even having
the nerve to beg of me to do it over.
About 4 o'clock, Joe and | stopped
TO rest in the bottom Of little coulee,
sitting down on the side of road that
led out into the bottoms. He had not
seen either Of the other two since
lunch, though we had heard Billy's
rifle once or twice.
While we sat there lamenting the
lack of wolves and game in general
we heard the peculiar bang" OF
Georges goose gun, then in minute
came the crack Of Billy's rife. We
all started to our feet as swift pat
ter came down the road Large bodies
move slowly and Harry had hardly got
on his feet when three gTayish wolves
sprang past Joe and me and dashed
plump into him, rolling him over and
over in the snow. Before they reached
theSmouth of the coulee Joe and fired
and had the satisfaction of seeing one
urn end-over-end and drop.
George and Billy soon came up each
bringing wolf. George had first seen
the wolves crossing the coulee further
up; his shot turned them down the
road, where, as they passed Billy, he
dropped one. Joe and | divided hon
ors on the third, for we had both shot
at and hit the same wolf.

chorused, Let us be duly thankful!"-

APPLE RICE PUDDING RECIPE.

APPLE RICE PUDDING RECIPE.
For this simmer some rice in milk
until very tender. Meanwhile peel,
core and slice thinly two pounds of
apples. Then stew them in little
water, with brown sugar to taste and
little strained lemon juice, until
very tender. When they are suffi-
GENTLY done mash them up finely with
a silver fork. BY this time the rice
should have absorbed all the milk.
Grease pie dish very slightly, whisk
up the rice and apples together. Fill
the dish with the mixture. Beat up
an egg with rather less than half a
pint of milk, sweeten slightly, pour
over the rice and apples and cook in
a slow oven until the custard is nice
ly set. This pudding is greatly inn
proved by being thickly sprinkled
with macaroon crumbs before being
baked Philadelphia Record.

ANTIQUE RUGS BY WASHING.
Solution Used to Impart Soft Appear
ance-Effects on the Warp.

dHCG-EHCCIS on Tic warp
The United States buys annually
many thousand dollars worth of what
are known to the profession as wash
ed rugs. Brightly colored Oriental
rugs sometimes are washed with a So
luton of chloride of lime, and i'm
parts soft appearance to the rug.
This chemical treatment is a pro-
cess of washing which produces the
effect of age and peculiar sheen to
the surface, which is pointed out by
the INSCRIPTIONS dealer as a proof of
superior quality. The fact is that the
process of washing as described in
yariably weakens and in some in
stances destroys materials of rug.
The progressive effect of the chemi-
Gals on the materials in the rug is
this: The chlorine gas contained in
the chloride of lime attracts oxygen
and moisture from the air by which
muriatic acid is formed. This eats
away the vitals of the rug. Sooner
or later the wool and cotton in the
rug become brittle and thus weaken
the warp and deteriorate the wool.
When this deterioration is CON-
plete the pile of the rug may be
swept away by the ordinary process
of sweeping, and the warp, which is
the foundation Of the rug, becomes so
weak that holes appear here and
there and soon the rug is worthless.
1t not seldom happens that Per-
sian rug is too staring in some bright
hue, perhaps red, and is not salable.
The INSCRIPTIONS dealer will subject
the rug to a series Of washings in
chemically prepared water. In this
way he turns out rug possessing q
soft antique sheen that is truly CAPT
tivating and finds a ready purchaser
at an advanced price.-Chicago Tri.

Vat For scalding Hogs.

"A very good vat for heating water
for scalding hogs can be made in the
following manner: Take two two by
twelve planks and cut them SO they
are six feet on one edge and five feet
two inches on the other edge. These
form the sides Of the vat. For the
ends take two pieces two by twelve,
each plank three feet long. About
three inches from each end of the two
sides cut a groove across two inches
wide and three-quartsrs of an inch
deep for the end Of the sides to fit.
Holes should be bored at top and
bottom for half-ineh bolts across the
ends to hold the sides in position.
4 The bottom \of the vat is made of
sheet iron nailed to the bottom and
on to the vat. The vat should be
long enough to come around both
ends and fasten at top and, also,
should be wide enough to come up
the sides for two or three inches.

Breed For a Definite Purpose.

The advice to breed to beef sire
for beef and to dairy-bred sire fur
dairy cows, is perfectly right. All
over the country we read Of men ad-
vocating that mythical animal, the
dual purpose" COW, a jack-of-all-
trades, and never the best at either.
II mans interest is in dairy pro-
ducts, he should keep the breed that
has been for many generations bred
for dairy production, and avoid all
the beef breeds, for the cbaracteris-
tics that make an animal the best for
the dairy will always forbid It's being
a good beef animal You may fatten
dairy-bred steer, and he may gain
in gross weight as fast as the best
beef bred one, but when he is slaugh-
tered you will find that instead Of
broad loins he will give you a big lot
of internal tallow, for there is where
he has been bred to put his fat, Just
as the COW of that breed has been
bred to put her fat into her milk.
Some lay great stress on the fact that
the 'arf-an' arr animal will bring good
veal calves, but fail to understand
that the veal has been more than
paid for in the loss Of dairy, products.
On the other hand, If your interest
lies In beef, avoid a dairy-bred ami
NAL, no matter II it is big Holstein,
for 1t is not mere size that makes the
beef animal, but the capacity for
making the most valuable beef in
broad loins and heavy hind quarters,
both Of which the dairy animal must
lack. The dairy type and the beef
type are totally distinct. Professor

Live Stock Notes.

Ever remember that good feed is
as important as good breeding. 1t
takes the two for the production of
the best animals.
Men who do not like animals are
unlikely to make successful breed
ers. They do not get interested
enough in their work or give it suf-
ficient attention and study.
No matter what kind of females
are used for breeders use pure bred
sires always. A herd can be graded
up quickly by the use of pure bred
sires II they are good individually.
Pure air and pure water are two
inexpensive things, yet are invalua-
Bile to the live stock grower. Money
cannot be spent to 50 coed purpose
for any kind OF feed or pasture as 1t
can be to get pure air and pure wafer.

Ponltry in the Orchard.

The chickens destroy insect ene-
mics Of fruit; with all of your trap
ping the insects do get past you. The
hens fmay not get all that remain,
but they and the little chicks will get
many Of them. Poultry like fruit,
and chickens in an orchard will eat
the immature fruit as 1t falls, and in
doing so kill off the worms that
caused the fruit to fall prematurely.
Just watch flock of little chicks in
an orchard. They seem to be con-
stantly chasing insects, many OF them
80 small we can scarcely see them;
but we know when a chick catches
one by the chicks self satisfied man
ner. That chick has probably saved
several apples, and it is good for the
chick. The poultry destroy the root
enemies of the trees. Most enemies
Of fruit trees pass through three
stages of life, and one OF these is
generally a worm, and many OF these
worms burrow in the ground under
the trees.
Just dig up the old sods a little I'M
der fruit tree, scatter a little grain
there to get the chickens stated, and
see how thoroughly and earnestly
the hens will dig. And they do this,
too, without damaging the rootlets,
as you often do by thorough culti-
walton. Many fruit grower fails
to cultivate his orchard as he should,
lest he peel the trunks of the trees,
or unduly cut the roots. Just few
