ChIIdrep's Food.

Certain little suggestions are always
to be followed when planning the diet
of the little ones. To keep healthy
little stomachs in the nursery never
serve hot stewed fruit to the children.
Plenty of stewed fruit and baked ap-
pies they should eat, but they must
invariably be cooked the day before
and dished up cold. The nursery POI
tatoes should always be baked or
boiled in their jackets. Stewed and
fried potatoes or potatoes boiled with

loss Of all the wholesome potash salts
that the skin gives out during the
process of cooking into the white part
of the vegetable.

Many farmers have not yet learned
the great value Of the disk harrow In
preparing ground for blowing in a

object lessons in this line was seer
In the drouth district of southern
Pennsylvania this fall. Many farmers
did not pillow, and those who did, too
often turned the ground over in hard
clods. One seeing and reasoning man
disked his thoroughly dry oat stub

two weeks, when, although nc rain
fell, he could pillow 1t with ease and
prepare a nice, moist seeded. The
disking put a dust mulch on top and
prevented the further evaporation Of

to the surface, even in a dry time,
though mor slowly, until the ground
was moist and mellow.
