FINEST OF PRESERVES
HOW PROPERLY TO PREPARE
STRAWBERRY BAR LIE DUG.
Strong Sunshine, Hot Piatters, Plenty
Of Window Glass, and Perfect Fruit
Are RequIred-Recipe for Or
anae Custard Fritters.

Strawberry Bar lie Duc.-Three
things are indispensable in making
this finest of preserves. The first is
strong, steady sunshine. the second
hot platters or plates, the third plenty
of window glass. The fruit should be
perfect and of good flavor. the sugar
pure. To every pound of fruit allow
a pound of sugar. Heat the sugar on
tin plates in the oven, taking care not
to let 1t melt or get too brown. 1t
should, however, be as hot as possible
without melting. Have In readiness
hot platters or deep plates. Spread
a thin layer of hot sugar over the bot
TOM then a layer Of fruit. and lastly
another layer of sugar. Cover the
platter with sheet of window glass
and place out of doors In the hot sun
or in sunny window In an unused
room. If the fruit is out of doors 1t
must be brought in when the sun sets
and set in a dry place in the house
over night. Return to the sun In the
morning. In two or three days the
fruit will grow plump and firm and
the syrup almost jelly. Pack In
tumblers and SEAL II the syrup Is
not thick, boil until clear and thick
ened. then pour in the glasses over
the fruit. Some good cooks in this
part of the country prefer to cook
fruit and sugar for ten minutes be-
fore spreading on the platter. This
of course hastens the preserving pro-
cess in the sun.
Orange Custard Fritters.-Break two
and a half eggs into stewpan with
half pound of flour; mix and pour
in by degrees one pint of milk, and
stir over the fire for 20 minutes. when
the custard should have become
smooth; take It off the fire and add
two ounces of castor sugar. one-half
ounce Of grated orange peel, three
yolks of eggs and a pinch OF salt.
Mix these well together and spread
the custard to one inch thickness
on a slightly buttered baking sheet.
When cold cut it into two pieces two
inches by one inch; dip the pieces In
egg and bread crumbs and fry them In
very hot fat until slightly colored.
Drain, sprinkle and sugar and pile on
a fancy paper in dish and serve.

G AN ANTONIO, Tex-There is a
y man in Texas who has found out a
new way to fight the mosquito. His
name is DIR. Charles r. Campbell. He
is official bacterioiogist of the city Of
San Antonio.
His idea is TO employ bats as mos
quito fighters. The neighborhood of
San Antonio is especially plagued by
mosquit oes-m alaria is more or less
rife in that vicinity-and for long
time past the inhabitants Of the mu-
nioipality and its suburbs have eager
ly sought to find a solution Of the
problem Much benefit has been OBJ
tained by keeping minnows in cisterns
and ponds-these small fishes being
greedy devourers of mosquito larvae
but such measures have not altogeth-
er met requirements.
Bats, as is well known, are insect
eaters, and are particularly fond CT
mosquitoes. In the twilight. when
they rove abrood, they devour i'm

MORE HOSPITALS ARE NEEDED
Situation Improved, but Further Work
Is Needed to Stamp Out
Tuberculosis.

Only four states. Mississippi, No
vada, Utah and Wyoming, have no
beds whatever in special hospitals or
wards for consumptives. Eight years
ago when the National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis was organized there were 26
states In which no hospital or sanito-
rum provision for consumptives eS'
listed. and the entire number of beds
in the United States was only 10000.
While these figures would indicate
a remarkable growth In anti-tubercu-
losis activity" says DR.. Livingston
Farrand, executive secretary of the
National association. In commenting
on the subject. there are still prac-
tically ten INDECENT consumptives for
every one Of the 10000 beds. including
those for pay patients. In other words.
we have from 100000 to 100000 con-
sumptives in this country too poor to
provide hospital care for themselves.
II tuberculosis is ever going to be
stamped out in the United States,
more hospital provision for these foci
of Infection must be provided"
