Laid to Mental Disorder.

A number OF curious mental dis
orders or frenzies spread throughout
Europe in the middle ages. beginning
with St Vitus' dauce. which was
named after . Sicilian youth who suf.
fered martyrdom under Diocletian in
303. DR.. A. e. shipley. the distir
guished lecturer at Cambridge univer-
sity, has decided that the British suf.
fragettes are aflicted with the singu.
lar malady known as tarantism. This
was at its greatest height in the sew
enteenth century, long after the dis
appearance of the St. Vitus' dance of
northern Europe. and severe cases
were marked by bowling, screaming
and jumping. as well as by the persist
ent, monotonous and rhythmical utter.
ance Of q word or a short sentence.
To this mania, like the others. females
were much more liable than males.
Another striking feature Of tarantisln
was a strong preference OF certain COZ
ors or combination Of colors. and this
REGULARITY seems to identify positive
ly the disorder affecting the suffras-
cites. The present outbreak seems 70
be the third within quite modern

NOVELTY ON BREAKFAST TABLE.
Hasty Pudding Recommended by Gas
tronomio Authority.

The national food magazine, What
to Eat, says that hasty pudding, prop
erly made and cooked at a low tenn
perature for five or six hours, or over
night in a fireless cooker is one Of
the most delicious, highly nutritious
breakfast foods which can be served;
the six generous portions prepared by
this recipe served with thin or berry
cream" will not exceed in cost 16
cents; and it contains every element
to support life, promote growth and
repair waste, at minimum cost. II
milk is substituted for the cream the
cost will be still less, with little
change in the food value-the fat
content only being reduced.
Put one quart of boiling water in
top Of the double boiler, add one and
one-half teaspoonfuls salt, mix two
cups yellow or white corn meal with
two cups Of cold milk, stir this slow
ly into the boiling water, boil five min
utes. stirring constantly, then place
vessel over hot water, let cook three
hours, stirring occasionally to prevent
mush from Jumping. The longer it
steams the more delicious the flavor;
serve with milk or cream.
II white and yellow corn meal is
made into hasty pudding in separate
vessels, then packed in alternate lay
ers in a brick-shaped mold. then
sliced cold and served with cream. 1t
makes a very attractive dish.

A number of the most careful canta-

ganized q practical seed breeders as
sociation. Their methods can be
adopted prafitably by Colorado grow
ers Of many other crops.
The Rocky Ford Cantaloupe Seed
Breeders Association has been formed
for the propagation and development
Of high grade cantaloupe seed by sys-
tematic methods of seed breeding, fol-
lowing the plans outlined in Bulletin
No. 126, Of the Colorado Experiment
Station.
Tho motives and plans for this or
ganization are as follows:
To adopt the most approved princi-
pies of plant breeding. and to apply
them under q definite outline. or meth
cd.
Te require each member to follow
the same schedule Of selection.
To register the seed produced each
year. with records and description Of
all antecedent history.
To furnish certificates with all reg
istered seed sold. showing the number
Of years pedigreed breeding behind 1t.
To offer for sale only the seed pro-
duced through the association, and not
to engage in any general seed trade. or
to "job" in seed.
To invite the examination OF breed
ing plats, pedigree records. and our
methods of seed saving, by those inter-
ested in good cantaloupe seed.
To avoid advertising by exaggerated
and misleading statements.
To develop a cantaloupe Of the high
est possible merit, Of the type that the
markets demand.
To protect the purchaser by sealing
all registered seed under regis
tered" seal Of the association.
To establish q standard OF perfec-
tion and score by which cantaloupes
may be Judged.
To discourage the remaining Of old
varieties without a merit Of distinc-
ton.
