Worth KNOWING,

To cook ham so as to retain all
its flavor encase the ham with a paste
of -four and water taking care to com
pletely cover the ham to that the
steam cannot escape. Bake in a hot
oven, allowing a quarter of an hour
for every pound. When cooked the
paste can easily be taken off. taking
all the rind with 1t. A ham cooked IN
this way Is delicious.

Give Beans Good Support.

Vining beans and all other vinee
should have pole or similar mechan-
ical supports. Some plant corn or sun
flowers for beans to vine on. This is
the 'lazy gardeners" method. Two
thrifty plants cannot occupy the same
soil space at the same time and thrive.
Plant corn and sunfiowers by them
selves and beans by themselves, and
give the beans good pole supports II
you wish to secure big crop of beans.

Eoyptjan Tomatoes,

Peel and scoop out the centers OF
five or six solid tomatoes, and put
them on ice until they are chilled.
When ready TO serve arrange the to-

WHAT is A DEMOCRAT?

1t is possible that the puzzling
question: What is Democrat? may,
after all, be solved in decade or
two. Mr.. Watterson, of the Louis
vile Courier-Journal, has somewhat
simplified the problem by specifying
certain kinds of people who are not
Democrats. He says:
mo man can be either a prohibi-
ZIONIST or protectionist and remain
a Democrat. He who is either and
claims to be a Democrat is a prevari-
cationist."
This at once disposes of the ridicu-
lous pretensions of many false pre-
tenders who have been strutting
around in the robes of Democracy. 1t
also diminishes the size of the Demo-
cratic party by an indefinite number
of cubic inches. Judging by the num-
Der of states which have gone dry,
there is an alarming scracity of Dem
ocrats down in the land of cotton.

the United States, birds save to the
farmer $2O0,O00,OOO a year in the de-
struction of noxious insects and nox-

birds are the plume hunters for mil

for food are restocked by natural pro-
cess, but the plume hunters recognize
no closed season. Millinery interests
in America represent $38,0OO,O0O a

CHA MONSTERS INCREASING.

Naturalists who recently visited the
Majaye deseret in Arizona say that
there has been an increase in the num-.
her of gi!a monsters in that region
said DIR. Abb. Cedron of Prescott, Ari%.
/ These lizards are of great interest to
;nnturalists, for IN spite of8investiga-
tons authorities still differ as to-
whether the bite of a. gila monster IS
fatally poisonous ] have had several
instances come under my observation
where men have been bitten by gila
monsters, but none ever died.. In the
case OF a gila monster biting a guinea
pig, however, the poison WAS fatal a.
few minutes after the guinea pig had
been bitten. The natives of the SOUTH
west, particularly the Indians OF.
Mexico. sincerely believe that the bite
of a gila is fatal to Il human being
and the lizard is held in much awe by
them. 1t is likely, however. that this
fear Is occasioncd largely by the re-
pulsive appearance OF the reptile. The
head Is very prominent, comprising
about onc-ffth of the total length OF
the body. and like the back it Isl
5thicllly covered with yellow end
black tinted tubercles. It's skin is very
tough, and although the bones OF the
tail are fragile, this part of the reptile
is worry strong, it being possible for the
monster to raise itself and balance the.
body on the tip of the tall, thus enabl-5
ing it to climb rocks and steep ascents.s
There Is no doubt that the teeth lead
to glands containing poison 1t is very
SLOW in its movements. but it is not
timid like other reptiles. If one at
tempts to strike the gila with a stick,
1t will grasp the weapon in its jaws
like a dog does, and when angered it
emits its breath in a succession of
quick gasps. 1t is supposed that the
breath of the gla has a drug like eff
feet on insects and as 1t can be de-
,tected at r considerable distance it is
believed that this Is the way it catches
