FROCKs AND PRILLS

New York, Jan. 13.-A woman who
rarely says or does the obvious thing
was asked what form Of philanthropy
would appeal to her most If she could
indulge in it. Buying party frocks
for girls who need them" was the
half earnest, half whimsical answer
that set everyone smiling, though

and heart burnings, hard to bear,
made US realize that there was some
thing to be said for Mrs. AS plan
after all. II is hard for a popular
girl to meet the demands made upon
her party frocks at this time of year,
but the fanciful styles that prevail
help out considerably. A few yards
of yelling will transform a worn
froek and give it quite a "strutty
look" and January odds and ends
that can be had at little prices will
supply the yelling. or material for a

ENGLISH Curd Cake.
Boise, February 16, 1911.'

Line patty pans with good flaky
paste. and fill them with the following
curd, wherein the secret of their good
ness lies: Allow sweet milk to stand
where it will soon become quite sour
and thick like jelly or blanc-mange
Put this in very clean pan and bring
1t to near the boiling point, when the
greater portion of it will turn watery
Then let it cool off and drain
through cheesecloth, hanging it up in
the open air. To each pound of the
curd retained in the muslin one or two
whisked eggs are added; also little
melted butter, handf,' of currants
and few drops of essence of lemon
or grated lemon peel.
Fill the paste-lined patties with this
mixture and bake them in a good oven.
When these are made just right. they
delight all lovers of good pastry.

ORGANIC MATTER OF SOILS
Necessary Element Is Secured by
Crop Rotation by Flowing Under
Green Crops and Manurlng.

By D. w. TREAR, Colorado Agricultural
College)
All cultivated soils and most virgin
soils contain plant and animals re-
mains, called organic matter.
When in the last stages Of decay.
organic matter is called humus. HUI
mus Is dark in color and imparts that
color to soil when present in sufficient
quantities.
Organic matter is very light in
weight When partially decayed, and
especially in the form of humus, 1t
has the power to absorb and hold
larger quantities of water than even
the finest clays.
Humus is more plastic (sticky)
than sand and less plastic than clay.
Consequently it is very valuable in
binding together sandy soils and loos-
ening up clayey soils.
When organic matter decays, sub
stances called organic acids are pro-
duced which act on the soil mineral
matter and help to make it soluble,
so that it is available to other plants.
The food material which the organic
matter contained is also broken down
to its original form, and much of it
is again built up into plant tissue.
Organic matter is gotten into the
soil by crop rotation, by blowing UNI
der green crops, by manuring and by
raising crops with extensive root sys-
tens. When added to soils in arid
regions it should be well rotted. 1t
is one of the most important soil con-
stituents. The lack of it in soil is
largely the cause of the decreased
yields under the single. continuous
cropping system.

PUTTING IN DRAINAGE TILES
Many Acres o. Land Could Be Made
Most Productive II System of
Undertaking Put In.
tBy 9. M. MILLER.)

During the last few months there
has been much discussion in the agri-
cultural press concerning the best in
vestments for farmers. In my opinion
there Is no better and safer invest
ment for the average farmer than tile
drainage on such parts of the farm -
fail to produce maximum crops during
wet seasons. There are many acres
of naturally fertile soil that are not
paying the owner the cost Of working
that could be made the most produc-
tive portion Of the farm II a good sys-
tenn Of undertaking. was put in.
In many cases the first crop will
pay the entire cost of drainage OF
course many farmers are SO situated
that they cannot afford to put in the
complete drainage system at one
time.
My advice to such men Is to have
their plans made at one time and do
a little every year. In this way their
work shall not be haphazard. discon-
nected efforts, hut shall fit into pre-
viously worked-out system and form q
permanent pert of it.

DRYING Off Gown.

Experience has shown that the best
way Of drying off cows is for the time
to feed only dry feeds. If on feed. and
to do irregular milking; then milking
but once day and during the week
only alternate days. This will soon
turn COW dry entirely. Some cows
require more attention than others.
and one should be careful to adjust
the intervals at milking to the condi-
ton of the udder. as 1t takes longer
to dry off some cows than others.

Applying manure to the orchard

supplies fertilizing elements. but the
manure itself acts as a mulch to con-
