SOMETHING ABOUT MIXED
 GREENS.

Dear Editor and Cornerites: While all are talking about greens, I'd like to say a few words. Greens can be had all summer. The more they are mixed the better. In July and August dande- lions and plantain are somewhat tough; but parboil in salt and water, with a good pinch of soda; then put in hot water where a good piece of pork has boiled a little while; then cook until tender. Take narrow dock, plan tam Cor toad weed), red root pig
 weeds, artichoke tops, dandelions, wild primrose, milkweed tops, shepherd dock must not be put in until the greens are nearly done. as all they need is scalding through
 If you have a bed of cowslips handy keep cutting tops and they make new growth all summer and you can have cowslips for greens any time you like.
 The best of all is pigeon berry Cor skoke or poke weed) When it gets about one foot high, pull out the stalk (skOke, milkweed and rhubarb must never be cut, but stalks pulled up when another always comes in its
 plaee), and when your water and pork boils put in It will cook in about one | half hour tastes much like spinach and beets; always have some punches growing in dooryard.
 | Let pusley grow in your gardens and cook it by itself with a piece of pork 1 Cooked in just salted water it is gooC 1 picl1led in vinegar.
 1 Cut the tops from pigweed and red root and they will sprout, or put out | side sprouts for more in the future l Cook them alone or add narrow dock and they are fine. Either cultivated mustard or wild can be added to al
 mixed greens, also nettles and young daisy tops. HAZEL.
