THINGS MADE WITHOUT EGGS.
Pastry and All Sorts of Goodies foe
Which Recipes Are to BE Had.

with eggs at 80 cents dozen and
my family of four clamoring Tor
cakes, cookies, desserts and breakfast
breads, egg economy was simply forced
upon me-" said a thrifty housekeeper.
I'D always heard of eggless recipes
and laughed at them. but with ruin
staring me in the face / decided to
make thorough search through cook
books and domestic magazines until
I'd collected good assortment of these
eggless recipes.
Il gave up the best part of three
days to looking through the cook
books at one of our large public libra
ries and l was simply amazed at the
results of my search. While some of
the best authorities had not a single
recipe for cake made with less than
three eggs, others of equally high
standing usually gave one-egg cake
and occasionally an eggless one.
"All authorities gave directions for
making icings and filings without the
use of a single egg, while up to that
time I'd always used at least the white
Of one egg for any kind of frosting.
All the books gave recipe for mo-
lases cake or gingerbread without
eggs and one or two included an egg
less recipe for cookies and dough-
nuts.

examination of every recipe of this
kind into my notebook. Most of these
I've tried since they've proved to be
all that was claimed for them, egg

Some of these were so simple as to
seem really ridiculous until I'd tried
them. WaflIes without eggs were UNI

Desserts without eggs seemed to

"a representative of H. c. Rowe &

much land in Narragansett bay for the

was due to the acts of trespassers up
on the company's leased beds and the
appropriation of the product, which
has cost the company much money to
cultivate.
1t is also declared that the ground
for which cancellation of the lease will
be requested is such ground as no
other planter will occupy, because the
New Haven oystermen have already
lost, according to their statement, large
sums in an attempt to make it pro-

Cat Seeding.

The yield Of oats in Missouri
has been steadily decreasing for
a number of years due largely to
the facts that the soil is decrease
ing In fertility through the burn
ing out of the humus supply. 1t
is, therefore, necessary to take
considerable more pains than
formerly in preparing land for
oats. 1t will almost always pay
to either pillow the land for oats
or to thoroughly disk It If it is
stalk land. Fall plowing where
q man can afford it is of course
the best preparation of tie land
for oats. The Experiment station
always replows land in the spring
or fall plows for oats and the
yield secured on land which is
not higher in fertility than the
average land Of north Missouri
frequently reaches as much az
30 bushels and in individual
instances it has been
known TO go up TO 90 bushels.
In other words the thorough pre-
paration of the seed bed and
drilling the oats in with .
drill will go long ways toward
solving the problem Of low oat
yields.
There are seasons when oats
mudded in early win make more
yield than oats put in on
thoroughly prepared lands button
the average season this is not
true. The thorough preparations
OF the seed bed, therefore, and
the use of drill In putting in the
seed seems TO be the two prime
factors for controlling the yield of
oats in Missouri. A third factor
