Correspondence Of The Star.

BELGRADE. October %, 1911.
Ex-Sultan Abdul Hands health has
much deteriorated. although his condition
has somewhat improved In the last few
days. The deposed sultan takes a keen
interest in political events. and particu-
iarly In the present crisis. He realizes
the difficulties facing the empire and the
critical position Of his enemies. the
Young Turks. but he Is far from rejo!c-
ing about that. He said to his entourage
that he was much grieved by the loss OF
Tripoli. He eagerly awaits the newspa-

WHEN MEAT IS COSTLY
SEVERAL WAYS IN WHICH CHEAP

and add more water as needed to keep
the meat covered. When the meat -
cooked 1t tastes surprisingly like
chicken. Thicker the gravy more II
necessary. Add salt about an hour be-
fore 1t is done.
Beet Loaf.-Three pounds round
steak, one-half pound salt pork. foul
or Ave soda crackers, one-half cup OF
milk. Add more salt II desired. Sea
son with one-half teaspoon OF ground
sage, or Glove or garlic, or a few drops
of onion extract. Mix into q loaf and
bake In oven. Basic occasionally.
Breakfast DIsh.-Take five cents
worth of liver and ten cents worth
OF a cheap cut of pork and put IN Q
kettle together; cover with four quarts
of water, cook slowly for an hour, salt
after 1t has commenced to boil, and
stir occasionally. Drain of half of the

value OF the sheep as q %preserver Of
soil fertility. OF all farm manures
that of the sheep is most valuable.
Feed given to q sheep will either be,
utilized in making mutton or returned
to the land In the most useful form
for plant growth. They thrive best
on a class of food which Is In itself
helpful to the land upon which 1t IL
grown. Clovers and alfalfa are suit
able for the bulk of their ration. The
great danger in a mild climate is dis
ease. Sheep are especially subject to
parasites and parasites multiply very
rapidly during warm weather. Let q
flock become thoroughly infected with
the deadly tape woe or ever the lit
tie stomach worm. and they are per
fectly useless. Keep them healthy an
with a moderate amount of feed they
will always be fat and ready to turn
into money. Old pastures are the
spreading grounds for the intenttnal
parasites, and 1t is the lambs that are
harmed by them. 1t is entirely during
the warm weather that the worms can
be contracted, and it is from short
grass that the lambs usually get them.
The older sheep drop them In their
feces. then they breed II the weather
is warn and are ready to be taken
in by the samb that nibbies the grass
whereon they are lodged. New pas
ture fields for the lambs In the sum
mer months are an essential to prof
table sheep farming. The danger of
keeping too large a flock Is very fmma-
isnent where the acreage Is small.
There are certain qualifications
which a man must have before he can
be successful with sheep. He must be
willing to pay some attention to them
and know when they are ailing. Dur
ing the Landing season there are many
little things that require attention. and
In order to do them right a man must
have a real love for his work. The
time required In caring for them 10
mo- long, but the way which It IL done
is important. To him who under
stands the sheep there % a certain
pleasure In caring for them which no
other occupation a afford. Gentle.
clearly, intelligent and quick to re-
spond to good treatment, the sheep At
lords q source OF pleasure and pronf
combined.
