Tomato Preserves,

Select good, solid, ripe tomatoes,
peel and slice. To every pound of
tomato use good half-pound of sugar.
Let your tomato boil for a half-hour
Or more; then add your sugar; wash
and slice two lemons, add to above
It depends wholly on the amount of
tomatoes, the amount of spices you
use, and you must judge the latter to
suit your taste. Use little ginger
plenty Of stick cinnamon, some ground
cinnamon, and very, very little ground
cloves. Too many spices will make
your preserves dark. 1t depends on
the tomatoes the length of time to
boil. Some tomatoes are more watery
than others. Boil and test the same
as any other preserves. The above
recipe is for either ripe red tomatoes
are the little yellow ones.
Watertown leader. [volume] (Watertown, Jefferson County, Wis.) 1909-1911, 1910-11-25
Keep the Preserves,

All Jared fruit should be kept in a
dry, cool and dark place-a closet
built in the cellar is excellent. It
should be provided with lock and key.
Tomatoes should be wrapped in news
paper in addition.
II jars are to do duty a second sea-
son they must be carefully opened.
Prying at the lid with knife, wrench
ing or desperate twisting Injuries the
lid and chips the glass edge of jar.
Use a jar opener that acts like a lev
or, and if that fails to work easily
fmmerse the jar in boiling water for
a minute, and it will open quickly.
AS soon as a jar is opened wash it
carefully in soap and water, rinse well
and put on the lid loosely. Have a safe
shelf to keep empty jars on instead
Of pitching them in a heap Ia cor.
ner; it saves much work when they
must be used again.

better than any other cover for a
single-walled hive. The inside (dat)
part can be made either Of two or
three pieces. The outside (top)
should be two pieces if the ridge Is
narrow, but can be made Of four
pieces IL the whole top is covered
with paper. The outside should pro-
iect over the ends two inches, or
one and one-half inches ct least, and
fastened with several small nails. II
the whole top is covered with paper
there will never be any trouble from
the ends Of the boards splitting. I
have had nc trouble from this cause.
A strip of sheet metal can be used
for the ridge-cap, or roofing paper will
do if nailed with tacks.

Rice Puddinq.

One cup raw whole rice, one
pint milk, one pint water, one
cup dark molasses, one teaspoon
full salt, one-third nutmeg. In mixing
use half a pint milk with molasses,
etc. Put in oven to bake in a deep,
earthen pot After it has been IN
moderate oven about one-half to
three-quarters Of an hour, or when the
rice begins to. swell, stir from the bot
tom thoroughly, then add balance of
milk, only stirring slightly from the
top the SAME as you would Indian
pudding. This makes the whey. Bake
two hours. Best to mix early in the
morning, leaving out the milk as that
allows the rice to swell, before bak
ing, but you are not obliged to do this.
Try this and report Bake just the
same as your Indian pudding. Do not
allow 1t to be too solid when done.
Add more milk If necessary Expe-
rience will teach you when it is baked
right. It is fine.

Leaves are fine for lining the stor
age pits
Don't neglect to provide ample Ven
tilation for the cellar.
Crates, barrels and boxes for cellar
storage must be clean and dry.
Fruit and vegetables retain a much
richer flavor if buried than if stored
in the cellar
If there are broken panes in the
barn windows, now is the time to put
in new ones.
Seed potatoes, like table stock.
should be stored as cold as possible
without frost.
Fall plowed land should be left
rough over winter to better catch and
hold the snow.
Don't spend a dollar for small
bitches or tile on a marsh until an
outlet is assured.
Put the potatoes designed for seed
purposes in barrels or bins where they
can be kept from the light.
Drainage tiles should be evenly and
we'll burnt, giving clear. ringing
To keep a plow from rusting coat
the moldboard with axle grease or
with .linseed oil when not in use.
Do not put any frozen potatoes away
into winter storage with unfrozeD
ones, If it can possibly be avoided.
This month is a good time to spray
the interior the barn with lime wash.
A spray pump used for this purpose
will do much for cleanliness anf
health
Perhaps the reason more root crops
are not raised Is that they require
more work both in their cultivation
and harvesting, and in their storing
and feeding.
So far as conditions will admit it
is nearly always best to sow wheat
reasonably early In order that 1t will
make good start TO grow before cold
weather sets IN.

Whole Wheat Bread.

The most palatable bread is made
Of mixed flour. Take 1 pint of gra-
ham meal, IL pint Of rye meal, - pint
white flour. to fill up the quart meas
ure. Then add another quart of white
bread -four. Add a tablespoon of salt.
tablespoons molasses, two or sugar,
half yeast cake, tablespoon of short
ening. Mix and mold on board as If
it were white bread, only do not make
too stif. This makes in our family
one pan Of biscuit for breakfast and
two loaves Of bread. Small loaves
are more palatable.

DRAINAGE WORK Is NOW DUE
Some Very important Suggestions for
Laying Out Plane Which viii
Bring Best Results.
CBy w. r. GILBERTD

The average life Of the drains In
many soils Is probably not more than
twenty-five years, and even If the
drains are not as old as that they may
have become blocked by roots Of trees
or sfnkage Of Individual pipes.
The point then to decide will be
whether to take up part of the system
and relay, or commence an entirely
new one. In the majority of cases 1t
will be found that it is most satisfac-
tory to lay down an entirely new sys-
tenn and this Is the course generally
adopted
In laying out a new scheme Of tile
drainage the following are the main
points that will require investigation
before the working plan can be pre-
pared or the work commenced.
No rule of thumb can be given, but
1t may be said that on the heavier
clays distance apart of six yards
and an average depth of two feet, nine
inches would be ample while OF the
lighter sands and wet gravels 20 yards
apart and an average OF three feet
three inches for depth would not be
too much. AS a general rule on me-
fum soils minor drains are set eleven
dunn soils minor drains are set eleven
! Drains need not to be so near to-
gether on arabic as in grass land
Drains should be at an average Of six
inches deeper than the side drains
Main drains should have a fall of
not less than one in $50 or about 20
feet per mile. The actual position Of
minors with reference to the slope
has been the subject Of much discus
sion, but where the fall is fairly good
they may be taken across the slope
and this is generally the most practi-
cable way.
The number of square yards III an
acre (4,4S0) divided by the distance
apart of the minors will give the to-
tai length Of side drains per acre
This, If the side drains are II yards
apart, their total length on an acre OF
ground will be $40 yards.
Choosing the positions for the out
