Smith Told Roosevelt

Oyster Bay, N. Y.. July 16.---When Colonel Roosevelt was informed of the resignation of Herbert Knox Smith, he said the commissioner, who visited him last week at Sagamore Hill, had told him it was his intention to give up his position and enlist in the new partys fight which the ex-President is leading.
 MT Smith told me-" said Colonel Roosevelt. that he could not keep out of the fight. I asked him to go home and think 1t over and to remember that if he went with Us 1t might be to his own hurt. Mir. Smith said that he had to come.
 "The commissioner feels that there is little hope of true progress in the ad- justment of the relations between the government and the great corporations through either of the two old parties. He said that he regarded the plank In the democratic platform on the trusts ss preposterously reactionary."

kItchencttes,

Many housewives believe in boiling
new earthenware before using 1t, as
this effectually toughens and hardens
1t. This is particularly efficacious in
the case Of ordinary brown kitchen
ware, the articles being placed in a
large pan of cold water which is then
brought slowly to acboil. After being
allowed to boil for ten minutes remove
the pan and allow the water to cool
before taking out the ware.
A kitchen bouquet for favoring
soups can easily be made. Take few
sprigs Of parsley and wrap them
around peppercorns, whole cloves, a
bay leaf and other herbs that are at
hand. Tie up tightly. This can be re-
moved from the soup without trouble.
To make string beans or cabbage
tender in cooking them and also. to
shorten the time required for cooking
the latter vegetable, add a pinch Of
baking soda to the water In which
they are boiled. This, used judicious-
ly, makes the vegetables as fresh and
tender as when they came from the
garden.

RIPEN CREAM FOR CHURNING
Make Starter From Fresh Milk, Drawn
In Most Careful Manner-keep
at Low Temperature.

The ferments which produce a clean
acid taste In the cream are the ones
that will produce good flavor in the
butter. 1t is best to make a starter,
all things considered. Make the start
er from fresh milk, drawn in the most
cleanly manner from a COW which has
calved within the last four months.
Put a couple of quarts or a larger
quantity, If needed, into clean jars;
cover to exclude the air, and keep
warm, even as high as 80 degrees, for
"a hours; when the milk, If normal,
will be we'll loppered. If it is not lop-
pered 1t should not be used. If 1t is.
skim off the top layer an inch deep
and use the sour milk below for your
starter. Keep the cream warm until
1t is properly soured, which is indi.
Gated by its becoming thicker and
with pleasant sour taste. Do not al
low the cream to become over ripe.
Churn just as soon as 1t is ripe enough
Do not fill the churn more than half
full. Churn with an even, regular
stroke. Add the starter at the rate Of
one pint to four gallons of cream.
Cream for churning should be kept
at a low temperature, thoroughly STIR
red when more is added, and none
should be put in for "a hours before
churning. During this time the cream
should be allowed to warm up to 60
or 65 degrees, and then cooled off to
So degrees three or four hours before
churning. Unsatisfactory results will
be obtained by rapidly cooling or heat
ing the cream. For family use take
one pint of buttermilk from the last
churning for use as starter.
"Cream ready for churning," says
Farm Dairying, Should have a clean,
pleasant, slightly sour taste and smell;
should be the consistency of molasses,
and when poured be free from Jumps.
and have a smooth, glossy appearance.
1t should have from s. to .55 per cent.
acid and from "a to 2S per cent. fat

TAKE PLACE or MEAT
DELICIOUS VEGETABLE SOUPS
FOR THE HOT WEATHER.
Something of Novelty Is One Call
ing for Fresh Garden Peppers
onion Soup Brought to Per-
lection in France.

An housekeeper whose famil,
doesn't care very much for flesh foo,
in summer can find any number of de
ncious vegetable soups to take tn,
place OF meat decoctions, and having
once formed the habit of using then
1t Is likely to be lasting one.
The following soup, calling for fresl
garden peppers, is novelty: Mine,
three large peppers and three small
onions together and stew them gently
I'LL tender, in little butter-abou
two tablespoonfuls-without brown
ing. Then thicken to a paste with {
generous tablespoonful of flour an(
gradually stir the mixture into a quar-
OF boiling milk. Season with salt ant
pepper. Gradually add also, stirring
well, the yolks of three eggs, and ther
remove from the fire Immediately and
serve very hot with crortons. Do MOI
let 1t cool long or it may curdle. Il
one or two of the peppers are 1
bright red, instead of green, they will
lend pretty tints to the soup.
For French onion soup, which re
turned travellers describe as food fol
the gods, fry four onions in two table
spoonfuls Of butter or very nice sour
rat. The latter is to be preferred be
cause 1t Is cheaper. When they are
quite brown add a scant half cupful
OF flour, stirring all the time. When
the flour is brown mix in carefully "a
little at a time) about three pints oi
boiling water or stock. Season the
whole with salt and pepper and put
the soup near the back of the stove
where 1t will merely simmer for halt
an hour. Mash two potatoes and add
enough warm milk to them to make a
puree. Stir this puree into the soup
and If too thick add a little fresh
milk. Then strain and boil ten min.
utes. Serve very hot with croutons.
The following combination of rice
and lettuce makes a delicious soup:
Have ready the large leaves of three
good-sized heads of lettuce. After
draining, chop them up and put them
In saucepan with about a fifth of a
pound of butter and cook for five
minutes, stirring frequently Stir the
whole into two quarts of white stock.
Season with a tablespoonful of salt, a
teaspoonful of pepper, half a tea.
spoonful of grated nutmeg and soup
bouquet. Stir in also four ounces OF
well-cleaned rice. Cover the kettle
and let 1t cook for three-quarters of
an hour. Then strain the soup
through a fine sieve. Let the soup
heat once again, but do not let 1t
boil. Stir in pint of sweet cream,
and serve very hot, with croutons.

Richard s. Lull, professor Of verte-
brate paleontology of that institution.
They are digging for the fossils Of
prehistoric horses. 1t is said by Pro-
lessor Lull that all evidence that has
accumulated tends to show that the
horse Of today had its origin in these
long extinct animals that once roam
Id the expansive plains in the Texas
Panhandle.
Discoveries Of bones that are clas-
,ified as belonging to the prehistoric
lorse have been made from time to

while ago, in opening gravel pit near
Plainview,. the fossils OF an animal
that scientists proclaim belong to the
equine species were brought to light.
