Blind Mosquitoes Here Again.

People on the down town streets last
night from $50 on were made aware
that the blind mosquitoes were again
coming up from the river. Wherever
there was light the peSky things could
be seen. They were not thick, but
there was enough TO make one apprc-
henSive that there might be more.
They came in July last year and by
this time of year were all gone. Owing
TO the lateness of the season the opinion
prevails that the pests will moi be nu-
merouS or remain long.

HEIGHT OF CULINARY ART
Preparation Of savory Gravles and
Sauces 10 the Test OF the
Competent Cook.

The art Of preparing savory gravies
and sauces Is more important in con-
nection with the serving of the cheap
er meats than In connection with the
cooking Of the more expensive.
There are a few general principles
underlying the making OF all sauces or
gravies. whether the liquid used Is wa.
ter, milk, stock. tomato Juice. or some
combination Of these. For ordinary
gravy two level tablesponfuls of -four.
or III tablespoonfuls Of cornstarch or
arrowroot Is sufficient to thicken q
cupful Of liquid. This is true except
Ing when the -four Is Drowned. In this
case about one-half Tablespoonful more
should be allowed. for Drowned -four
does not thicken so we'll as un
Drowned. The fat used may be butter
or the drippings' from the meat, ant
the allowance being two tablespoon
fuls to cup Of liquid. q
The easiest way to mix the ingredi
ents is to heat the fat, add the -four
and cook until the mixture ceases to
bubble, and then to add the LIQUID
This is a quick method. and by using
1t there is little danger of getting a
lumpy gravy. Many persons. however
think 1t Is not wholesome method
and prefer the oldfashioned one oil
thickening the gravy by means OF
-four mixed with little cold water
The latter method is of course moi
practicable for brown gravies.

Over at Harmony in Shawnee they

They seem to be having the most
trouble with geography. Miss Minnie
Cole is teacher and is trying to leave
the work in the very best condition
possible for next year. We are quite
sure that Miss Randall will find the
school well classified.
Several pupils have enrolled in the
contests this week and it looks like
the girls will do equally as well as
the boys. Every week and almost
every day l receive letters from
pupils who have tried in some of the
former contests saying they did MOI
win but that they are not discouraged
but are going to try again. Such
pupils will succeed in life as we'll as
in school and we are truly glad to
know that we have such pupils. They
are coming to realize that it is moi
the prize so much that does them
good, but the trying.

Burkholder and Edith Niswonger as

pupils of this school were seriously
troubled when they failed in this

FOR THE HAMBURG STEAK
Best Method Of Preparing and Serving
the Cheaper Cuts That May
BE Bought.

This name Is commonly given to In
expensive cuts Of beef chopped, sea-
soned q little, shaped into small balls
Or into Une large thin cake, and
quickly broiled in the way that ten
der steak would be. Owing to the
quick cooking much OF the natural fla
vor OF the meat is developed and re-
tanned. The fact should be kept In
mind that Hamburg steak must be
made from fresh. background meat. It
Is much safer to chop the meat at
home. as chopped meat spells very
quickly. Much depends, too, upon
browning It sufficiently to bring out
the fiavors. Many cooks think that
Hamburg steak is improved II the meat
Is mixed with milk before It is cooked.
In some parts Of the country, and
particularly In some Of the Southern
states. two kinds of beef are on sale.
One is imported from other parts Of
The country and is Of higher price. The
other. known locally as native beef"
Is sometimes lacking in flavor and In
tat and is usually tougher. Southern
native beef. such as is raised in Flori-
da, Is almost invariably. however. of
extremely good flavor, due presumably
to the feed or other conditions under
which 1t is raised. BY chopping such
meat and cooking 1t as Hamburg steak
a dish almost as palatable as the best
cuts of the more expensive beef may
be obtained, 1t such cases, however
Il Is desirable because of the low per
centage OF fat to add suet or butter to
the meat, The reason for this Is that
in the cooking the water of the Juice
when unprotected by fat evaporates
too quickly and leaves the meat dry
This may be prevented by adding egs
as we'll as fat. for the albumen Of the
egg hardens quickly and tends to keeI

be one egg to IN pounds Of meat.

BATES COUNTY SCHOOLS
AND TEACHERS.
BY County Superintendent p. M. Allison.


Highland College Of Highland Kan
sas has offered a free scholarship to
the rural graduate in Bates county
selecting their school, who makes
the highest average. They want
only those who can attend to try on
this. If any pupil cares forthis please
let me know and | will award this
June first. Any pupil who took the
last examination is eligible but unless
you are sure you can attend do not
apply. The application can be made
by writing a letter to me saying that
you desire to try.
AT this time of year we usually have
some one trying to sell supplies OF
some sort to school boards and they
usually sell at a high price and often
something not very essential and OF
an inferior quality. 1t is to be hoped
that boards will not have anything to
do with them and if in need of any
thing buy direct or from home man.
Our friend E. E. Laughlin recently
wrote an article for the Corn Growers
Department of Colman's Rural World
that contained some very wholesome
advice on the subject of Corn Improve
ment and which might be applied
to any other line of work. | am sure
our boys who are taking up thiswork
will do well to read Mr.. Laughlins
advice.
