HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

If a plate of sandwiches is prepar- ed beforehand for luncheon it is a good plan to pile them on a plate and then wrap plate and all in wax ed paper.
 A good rule for making sponge cake is to devote exactly the same time to beating yolks of the eggs as it takes to beat the whites to a perfect stiff ness.
 It is a mistake to think that ice tea can be cooled by a few Jumps in the pitcher. There must be either finely cracked or shaved ice in the glasses to make it palatable.
 If jellies are becoming candied, cov- them with quarter of an inch of spulverized sugar. underneath the pa per and they will remain in good con- dition. even for years.
 Soak old flour sacks in borax water over night to remove the printing and then boil for half an hour in soapy water and they will make ex- cellent washclothes for dishes.
 To take out wagon grease, if it is the kind made of animal fat, sponge with ether, if it is the kind made with coal tar, it may be removed with a cloth dipped in petroleum
 To prevent thread from knotting when doing hand sewing, always make knot in the end last broken from the spool. This done, stretch the thread by giving it several quick pulls.
 If furniture has grown dull and streaked, try rubbing it with a mixture of equal parts of turpentine and coal oil, It polishes quickly and is much less expensive than prepared polishes.
 If you must carry hot coals from the fire and fear that they will spill, why. not try dumping them into long handled frying pan. They cannot es- cape and cannot burn the pan.
 To remove tarnish from gold braid, first rub it free from all dust and then cover it well with powdered rock alum. After half an hour rub this off with a stiff brush and the tarnish will disap- pear.
 Molasses cake is improved by being baked slowly. Have the oven hot when first putting fin the cake, then cool it off so that the cake may be at least forty minutes in the baking. A longer time will not hurt.
 A careful seamstress always has a piece of cloth under the presser foot of the machine. This not only saves wear of the machine, but will absorb any drop of oil that may ga ather and would soil the~next fabric stitched.
 A delicious French dish consists of French plums stuffed with whole all monds. dipped in olive oil and roasted on a broiler over hot fire then rolled in thin slices of bacon and grilled. They should be servsFplping hot.

THE PROBLEM OF
 SEWAGE DISPOSAL.

Sewage disposal is becoming one of the great pending questions. and it is pf interstate character in some locali- ties Health authorities have found that river currents, and tidal flows do not exercise so much purifying infiu- ence as was believed. and have. there fore. reached the conclusion that the plan of discharging sewage. without change of character. into rivers and harbors, is a menace to the public health. which is increasing as popula- lions increase.
 New York city is giving the subject very careful consideration. A Metro politan Sewerage Commission and Merchants Association are studying the problem which is a very difficult one there
 Connecticut is interested in the mat fer With it's shore studded with sum- mer resorts. and most of it's cities either discharging directly into the Sound. or through rivers into it. the menace to the public health. if river currents and tidal flow do not suffi- ciently purify. is serious. With in land cities. located upon rivers. the situation is even more grave. Kan sas City is considering a plan which will cost about s4. .0o0. .000
 The Farmer has. on several previous occasions. suggested that a system of sewage disposal. which would turn it into fertilizing material. offered a very profitable opportunity for inventive minds. At this time. when publicists are calling for greater production of cattle, grain. etc. this matter is of special importance. If the sewage of the cities could be utilized for fertil- izing purposes. Connecticut could cas- fly support its population without Western aid. Thus, the successful in ventor would not only relieve the cit ties of a troublesome problem. but would also become a public benefactor, by conserving the public health and increasing the States supply of food products. It is great opportunity for Connecticut ingenuity which has always been of a superior quality.

Another Pioneer Passes Away

Another pioneer of Nevada crossed
the divide this morning. when the eyes
of James Henry Taber, one of Elko's
most highly respected citizens, closed
forever on earthly scenes.
Mr.. Taber was born in Westmoreland
county, Pennsylvania, on the 26th of
August 1881. In 1882, his parents
moved to Henry county, Illinois, where
tf resided until 1874 when they
moved to Iowa. In 1916, the family
crossed the plains to California, the
journey being made with OK teams.
They settled in Contra Costa county
and Mr.. Taber and his father enlisted
and served i'll the Mexican war. In
California, the subject of this sketch
followed mining, merchandising and
freighting. In 1869. he moved to
Carson City and in the following spring
he followed the mining excitement to
Austin. He mined there for IL short
time and was then elected sheriff. He
served two years as sheriff and four
years rs deputy. In 1871, he came to
Elko county and engaged i'll the stock
business. In 1882. he was elected
sheriff of this county and filled the Office
for two years. He was aftcrward
deputy sheriff for six years.
In 1871 he married Miss Margaret
Schoer, who still survives him. Beside
tine widow, two daughters, Miss Clara
and Mrs. Chas. II. Kaiser, of Los Vegas,

Shortly after nom las Sltur lay Mr..
Taber went into the front yard of his
home to get paper and fell. breaking
his left hip and iniuring himself intern
ally. Mrs. Taber missed him and on
going to the door found him on his
hands and knees on the porch. Two
men passing by assisted him into the
house and DR.. Eby was summoned. He
was made as comfortable as possible
and indications were favorable for his
ultimate recovery. The internal injur
ies, however, were severe and hemor-
rhages set in. Medical skill could not
control the internal bleeding and Mr..
Taber grew weaker and weaker until

Henry Taber, as everybody called him,
was one of Elleo's best citizens. For ov-
or 81 years he has been a familiar figure

official his record is without stain.

KILL SQUIRRELS BY AUTOS
Park MenaeerIs Director Says chauf-
feurs Delight In Slaughter
Fears determination.

New York.-Mr. Smith, director Of
the Central park menagerie, is very
much exercised over what he calls
the wanton murder of squirrels by
chauffeurs. On a recent day Mr..
Smith found the bodies of five SPUR
rels within three city blocks of East
drive. He was sure that chauffeurs
had deliberately run over the little
animals, in striking contrast to coach
men, who drive to one side SO as not
to injure the pets, who have become
so accustomed to vehicular traffic that
they sit on their launches In the mid
die of the road, fearless of any harm.
Mfr. Smith said that before the num-
Der of automobiles in the park be-
came so large the squirrels multiplied
with startling rapidity, and he recalled
the time when it became necessary
to shoot large numbers of them. A
year ago there were 5000 squirrels
In the park.
Then" said Mr.. Smith, there was
a startling change. Hundreds on hun
dreds Of squirrels were run over and
killed by unfeeling chauffeurs, until
now there are barrel a thousand of
them left, and | am afraid that they,
too, will be exterminated. The chauf
feurs seem to take a delight in run
ming down the little beasts. The
women and children who get so much
pleasure in feeding the squirrels will
miss them very much when they are
all killed off. Mrs. Russell Sage is
one who drives to the park almost
every day when he is in town just
for the pleasure of feeding the little
animals"

Aspirations to Be Star-Taken
to Her Home.

teen years old, who ran away from
her home In Meridian, Miss, to go on
the stage, was cured Of her stage am
billions after dancing in tights for two
nights in the chorus of a st. Louis
theater She forsook the footlights
and fieshings for a prosaic job in a
department store, and was tearfully
willing to return home with her pa
rents They left with her the other
day for Meridian.
She said that she went first to Gin

night in the venerable drama, East

in the play proved more steep and
difficult than she had expected, she
left Cincinnati for st. Louis.
Father, mother and daughter had a
reunion at police headquarters, and

periences. She had been living at
No. 1901 Morgan street, but gave her
address as the Jefferson hotel, she
said, to impress her girl friends in
Meridian.
