Camp Suggestions.

A suggestion for a camp refrigerator
is to have q barrel sunk into the
ground a convenient distance from the
camp. In this the supplies for the
chatting dish should be kept-the can
ned things that have been opened and
the eraporafed milk.
Picnic hampers for carrying are real
" a great convenience. though the
space Is SO fully taken up by the uten-
sfls that the proyender usually has to
be carried separately.
These hampers are to be had in all
sizes. Instead of taking china plates
to the camp, which are always cum
bersoIne, those of wood fiber, which
nre sold In the stores for 8 cents q doz-
en-, make a satisfactory substitute. OF
the same class are heavy paper plates
made in Il half dozen layers each,
these being removed by simply pulling
them off. Both the wood and paper
plates hre very light In weight and
nre thrown away after being used.
