REASONABLE DISHES.

These hot days when meat dishes seem too heavy for the digestion, one may turn to various made dishes which are sufficiently satisfying.
 Rice Is such a nutritious and easily digested food and in combination with other foods and fiavors furnishes quite a variety of diet.
 In cooking rice, 1t should be thor oughly washed and then dropped into rapidly boiling water a little at time to prevent the water from cooling, and then cooked until perfectly soft. If the rice is to be served simply and the grains left whole and distinct, 1t is good plan to drain from the boiling water into colander, and allow the cold water from the tap to wash It. Reheat and serve.
 Rice croquettes.-These make dish that Is hearty enough to take the place of meat Take cold cooked rice after it has been blanched as above. after cooking in milk instead of water, and using a cup of rices to quart or milk and a teaspoonful of salt. Mold the rice and then roll in egg and ;rumbs, pouring egg over 1t the second time and again rolling in crumbs to completely cover. Fry in deep fat and drain on brown paper. These cro- quettes may be served with tomato sauce or with a smooth white sauce to which has been added half cup or grated cheese. Pile the croquettes on chop plate and pour over the cheese sauce, Serve hot.
 Macaroni Is another food that may easily take the place of meat. It is delicious simply boiled and served with grated cheese sprinkled over 1t. or when a more substantial dish Is needed add hard cooked eggs and a cup of white sauce. onion juice and finish the top with buttered crumbs and bake.
 Egg TimbaIes.-Beat six eggs until light without separating the whites from the yolks Add scant tea spoonful of salt, a dash of pepper. teaspoonful of chopped parsley. little onion juice and cup and a half or rich milk Cook in molds and serve surrounded by peas or asparagus in white sauce.

SUM MFR DRINKS.

There Is no drink that quite takes the place of lemonade for most pal ates, and with the addition of sprig of mint and a few bruised leaves simple julep Is made.
 Crushed entrants and mint, with little lemon juice, makes a delicious drink.
 Pine Apple cup.--Put into 8 bowl the juice of three lemons, two oranges, sliced and the seeds removed, one grated pine apple, and one cup of sugar. Let stand an hour to extract the juice, then strain carefully. Add as much cold water as desired, two slices of shredded pine apple, and fill the glasses half full of cracked ice be fore adding the fruit juice.
 Iced Tea.-Make tea, using a tea spoonful for each cup of boiling water, let stand to brew or steep, but not boil, for five minutes. Then pour over cracked ice in a pitcher. Serve with loaf sugar and slices of lemon.
 Raspberry cup.-Mash and strain two cupfuls of entrants stripped of stems. Mash also an equal quantity of raspberries. Mix the juice, sweet en to taste, and serve in glasses half full of cracked ice and decorate with a sprig of mint.
 Mint Sangaree.-Crush two or three sprays of mint with lump of sugar. Put into a glass half full of cracked ice. Add four tablespoonfuls of grape juice and fill the glass to the brim with charged water. Shake thorough " and strain into another glass.
 Raspberry Dash.-Fill tumbler half full of cracked ice, add a tablespoon ful of sweetened raspberry juice and a tablespoonful of sweet cream. Fill the glass with soda water.

Once when Reginald De Koven was touring the country he found himself in the town of Dayton on Sunday. They told Mir. De- Koven that an Episcopal church in the neighborhood had a sup erb organ. Accordingly he went to that church, ascended the or gan loft and sat beside the orga- mist during the mornings ser. vice. You seem ta know some thing about music" said the organist in a condescendlng way
 "I'll let you dismiss the con- gregation if you like" "Why yes," said Mir. De Koven, q would like that very much. " Accordingly at the end of the re- cessiornal, he exchanged places with the organist and began to play Mendelsohn's "Spring Song" He played beautifully The Dayton people, enthralled by the wounderful music, refused to depart. They sat in rapt enjoy ment, and after the Spring Song" was finished Mir. De Kov. en began something of Chopin Suddenly heavy hand was laid on his shoulder and he was push. ed off the music stool.
 You can't dismiss a congre gation," said the organist impa tientIy; "watch and see how soon I'll get them out" -Albu querque Journal.

DRY FARMING
 AND WHEAT

Colorado Springs, Colo.-"1t's difference of opinion that makes horse races" says old David liar um. By the same token, things are always made interesting when a few dry farmers get to- gether for a comparison of sys- tems. At the recent Interna- tional Dry Farming Congress here half the discussions concern ed the relative merits of various varieties of wheat for the dry farm. Now comes Prof. F. H. Webster, dean of the Kansas Agricultural College, and an- nounces himself as ''ferninst" them all.
 "The wheat farmer has uo place in the development of the dry farming area" he says, "The general failure to recognize this fact has caused untold suffering and loss to settlers who were enticed by misleading statements to occupy this country with hope of growing wheat for pro- fit. Wheat farming has certain requirements of moisture and temperature which are impera- tive, or the crop fails. The re- zion between the tooth meridi- an and the Rocky Mountains has proved it's entire unreliabill- ty in this respect. Itis destined, however, to become one of the greatest producting centers tor live stock in America.
 ''The transition from the open range To the abandoned wheat farm has taught that forage crops are, to a workable degree, sure; that kafir, milo and sorg- hum will produce sufficient grain for the needs ofthe stock farmer that the capacity of this region to carry live stock can be great ly increased over tbat of the range days by raising forage and by winter feeding, and that the climate is admirably adapt ed to the live stock industry.
 To insure success even under these conditions, however, Prof Webster advised the farmers al Congress to produce feeders ra tier than finished stock, to raise forage crops tor winter feeding to care for those crops by silo ing, to practice approved dry farming methods, and to keep ing a better grade of stock thar now.
