Protected Mutual Fire Insurance Com
pany of Des Moines, Iowa, one dollar
per thousand for 1909 (being one mill
assessment.) This company's risks are
protected with the Dodd & Struthers'
Lightning Rods-which accounts for
the very low assessment.

makes reduction of 20 per cent. from
the Fire & Lightning (board rate)
where the buildings are protected with

How can you afford to use any other
rod or system? Not only do these rods
reduce your Insurance.; they also pro-

Jeffries handed ever the heavy

the former sustaining practically a

Johnson all along had the best of the

CANNING Hints.

Put a silver knife In the empty
fruit Jar before turning in the hot
fruit and you will not have a cracked
Jar.
Let the air bubbles up by thrustins
a fork or knife down the inside OF q
jar filled with fruit before sealing H.
After tho rubber and lid are ad-
justed screw the lid down as tight
as possible. then with the back Of q
knife tap the edge of the lid firmly
down on the rubber. this will prevent
II from leaking.
To Can Green Corn.
Corn that is as fresh as II Just
taken from the cob may be canned
now.
Take nine cupfuls of corn freshly
cut from the cob. a cupful each or
sugar and water and a half cupful OF
salt. Stir until the salt and sugar
is we'll dissolved, then can without
cooking in air-tight cans. Freshen
awhile before using.

Summer Breakfasts.

To most housewives the first meal
of the day Is the one most difficult to
prepare. Start the day right with a
good breakfast, and we are at peace
with the world and ones self. at least
until the next meal.
Many case OF indigestion and bad
temper may be followed back to a
poorly planned and worse cooked
meal. Our food has much to do with
our dispositions. At no season of the
year Is fruit more plentiful or more
OF necessity than during the warm
months.
Blackberries. blueberries, plums,
pears and apples are abundant this
season and offer a pleasing variety.
For the cereal course have at least
hve varieties. II will be an easy mat.
ter TO have a different one for every
day In summer.
If a cooked cereal is used Il is
worth noting that a cereal is either
made or marred by salt. Too much
spoils II, too little makes II fat. and
no amount Of salt added will season
II as If It were cooked in Il. Cream
is another necessity. II you cannot
have cream, give up having the cereal
No matter how great the heat, hot
breads are always popular. Light
puffy rolls are not easy to have un.
less the housewife is willing to rise
at very early hour. Popovers are
choice hot bread and with a little
practise easily made. The oven heat
is the important thing in making pop
overs. Here is good recipe for
them: Take one cupful of -four and
half teaspoonful Of salt Pour over
this very slowly one cupful OF milk,
beating well until smooth, then add
the beaten yolk Of two eggs and last
ly the whites beaten to a stiff broth.
Bake In hot jem pans thirty minutes.
Graham mullins and corn cake are
other well-liked breakfast breads. For
the substantial course there may be
fresh fish or hash OF the meat of the
day before. Croquettes are excellent
and omelets Of different kinds are also
good. Veal or chicken finely minced
and well seasoned is delicious served
On q thin slice of buttered toast and
a poaehed egg on top. These are but
a few suggestions as to what may be
used for summer breakfasts.

Hot Weather Hints.

All the energies are exercised to en-
dure the heat and tho enervatlng at
mosphere while performing house
hold tasks during the summer. Dress
comfortably and rise %arly to do the
bulk OF the work that has to be done
each day before the heat OF the day.
The simplest style OF living COM
formable to health and comfort, should
be the aim.
Bread may be mixed at night and
kneaded the first thing in the morn
ing and then baked before nine o'clock.
Soups and vegetables may be cooked
early. salads and desserts prepared
and with a gasoline. gas or oil stove
the meal may be easily prepared. A
areless cooker is an invaluable aid to
the busy housekeeper as the dinner
may be started in the cool OF the day
and put in the cooker to still cook
without FIRE or attention.
Avoid entirely cold meals in hot
weather. II the meal is to be cold have
hot drink of some kind or with hot
meal, serve a cold drink.
Care and planning will do much to
lessen the fatigue and shorten the
hours OF labor. There are some
things that must be done, each house
keeper being a law unto herself For
some 1t is neither convenient or eco
nomical to buy prepared food. for
those the baking and cooking must
be done in the home.
The flour and lard or butter for
pastry may be prepared in sufficient
quantity to last for several days and
kept In the icebox to be used when
needed. II is even better than when
freshly prepared as the cold mixture
makes a flakier crust.
The washing, ironing and cleaning
may be done early II planned for and
the lighter work be left for the hot
part of the day.
Work is good for us and those who
sit around painting with the heat. do
ing nothing but talk OF the weather
and their sufferings are much more
uncomfortable than those who arc
busy and have the mind well occu-
pied. This has been proved over and
over again. A busy worker has no
time for worry about the weather or
other things beyond control.
