STORMS TO PREDICT SELVES
Wireless Stations to Be Used to Make
Tempests Send Their Own
Warning Ahead.

Storm centers move usually in an
easterly or northeasterly direction.
Hence the prediction Of storms on the
Atlantic coast is possible, since most
of them come from the Mississippi
valley. Some come up the coest from
the Caribbean sea, but even In this
case we have no warning.
But western, Europe is less fortu-
nate. It's tempests come from the At
lantic, and with little warning. Euro
pean weather men have made as much
as possible a study OF the paths Of
American storms across the Atlantic
and are sometimes accurate In pre-
dieting the time Of their arrival; the
same has been done with storms COM
ing up from the South Atlantic.
But 1t often happens that storms
vary either their route or the rate of
movement, so that predicting cyclones
on the coast of western Europe is
more or less guesswork.
AS possible help in this respect
Director Andre of the Lyons observa-
tory is making deep study Of the
galvanometer records OF various wire
less telegraph stations.
He has found that the antennae are
sensitive to any stray electric currents
as well as to messages, and he hopes
to discover way to make the storms
telegraph their own warning ahead Of
their arrival.
Every storm is accompanied by cleo
trical disturbances, and already M.
Andre has accumulated a mass of evil
dence to show that each storm in this
way gives warning. Just how to read
this evidence is the problem to which
he is devoting himself.

HOW TO COOK BACON
NEED NOT ALWAYS BE SERVED
IN SAME OLD WAY.
should Be Thoroughly Chilled Before
Frying to Get Best ResuIts-vari.
Gus Nice Ways Of Serving as
Breakfast Dish.

There is a proper and an improper
way to cook bacon. One unfortunately
sees too much of the latter. Baked
on a rack or a broiler, it is consider
ed more wholesome than when 1t is
fried, but most of the trouble with
fried bacon lies not in the fact that 1t
is fried, but rather in the way 1t is
fried. It is too often sent to the table
either half cooked and floating in
grease, or else it is dried up and half
burned.
To fry bacon ideally, 1t should, after
1t has been cut into thin slices, be
placed on ice to become thoroughly
chilled. The pan must be very hot, so
that the bacon curls into little rolls as
soon as the pan is shaken. Fry 1t
thoroughly, but not long enough to
harden 1t.
Bacon baked as follows is free from
grease: Cut 1t into thin slices and
place them on a rack such as is used
for roasting meat or upon gridiron
placed over dripping pan. Have the
oven very hot and let the slices re-
main in it until they are crisp and
brown.
The following Is unique way Of
broiling bacon: Cut it into thin slices
as usual, place cracked ice over them,
and let them stand in this way until
they are chilled. After broiling the
slices on one side place them again
on the ice. In a moment or two put
back on the fire, and broil them on the
other side until done. The sudden
change of temperature Is believed to
improve bacon.
There are many nice ways of serv-
ing bacon as breakfast dish. Toma-
toes fried with bacon are a favorite
dish in many English households. Cut
the tomatoes in slices, season with
salt and pepper, and, If preferred, dip
In egg and bread crumbs before fry
ing.
A catsup gravy is very nice when
fried in bacon. Pour off the super
fluous grease after frying, add a little
catsup mixed with water and thicken
with -four, If necessary. About quar-
ter of a cupful Of water is added to
half cupful of catsup.
Fried bacon with cream gravy makes
a nice breakfast dish in spring, with
corn bread. After cooking the bacon
free it from superhuous grease. Add
little -four and milk to the drippings
that remain, cook the sauce on top of
the stove and pour 1t over the bacon.
Another way to prepare this dish is to
soak the bacon in cold milk for 20
minutes before cooking, afterward
dipping the slices in -four and frying
in a very hot creased frying pan. The
soaking in milk gives fine flavor to
the bacon and the -four, and the -four
insures crisp crust. Shake the pan
well while cooking, and after brown
ing thoroughly on both sides remove
the bacon. Pour off superfluous grease
and place the slices on rough brown
paper to absorb any fat that may ad-
here to the outside. Stir into the fry
ing pan one or two tablespoonfuls of
flour, gradually adding the milk the
bacon was soaked in, and season with
salt and pepper. When the sauce is
thick pour it over the bacon and serve
at once.

TCANADA'S PROSPERITY.

The New York Times OF March 20,
1912, In an article dealing with Cana
da's progress, says:
AT the present moment eight ship
loads Of European immigrants are
afoat for Canada, while there are
signs that the outward movement
which is customary with us during
labor troubles will be marked this
year. There lie no such startling rec
ord Of our loss to Canada. Our citi.
Gems quietly slip over the border in
groups or trainloads. but their going
is not advertised.
There Is no mystery why Canada
is the good thing the United States
used to be. 1t is because Canada is
following In It's neighbours footsteps
that It Is repeating the fortunate ex-
perience which its neighbor Is envy
ing, even while deliberately turning
its back on the teachings of the past.
A fortnight ago the Dominion budget
speech reported the unprecedented
surplus Of $39,000,000, and on Thurs.
day the Government passed through
the Committee on Supply credits of
$3S,000,000 for railways and canals.
With this assistance the railways
themselves are both enabled and COM
PEELED to increase their facilities. Ac-
cordingly we find single road allot-
ting ten millions for work of its own.
Naturally the Canadian newspapers
contain announcements calling for
fifty thousand men for construction
work. This influx is apart from those
Americans who go with money in their
pockets obtained by cashing In their
high-priced American lands.
"a st. Paul dispatch says that with
in fortnight two thousand carloads
Of farm animals and machinery have
passed toward Canada, the property
of men who expect to pay for their
farms with the first crop"

greatest of care is taken to prevent
this.
If you do not want to wash It, sprin.

The chalk then may be easily
shaken out and an immaculate gift

This is successful. Do not hesitate

sImrlest Wax of All.

The following story the Saturday
Evening Post says is told of Col.
George W. Goethals, who at the time
1t took place was an instructor In en-
gineering at West Point.
One day, in recitation, he gave out
this question to a class of cadets:
"The post flagpole, sixty feet high,
has fallen down. You are ordered by
your commanding officer to put 1t up
again. You have under your command
a sergeant and ten privates of the en-
gineer corps. How would you get the
pole back into placer"
Each cadet, after long consideration
and much figuring over the derricks,
blocks, tackle and SO on, evolved a
different method
mo-" said Goethals, you are all
wrong. You would simply say: Ser
geant, put up that flagpole!"

Genuine Maple SUGAR.

There are few people outside the

writer in the Country Gentleman, who
really know what the genuine article
tastes like. The superior favor thus
spoken of is probably due in a degree
to the same causes that make straw

consumed on the tree so delectable.

some of the blame for the poor favor

All of which is an argument that the management is going to ask the people for next week, is a very mod est demand.

Those who have no children-WeH perhaps they wish they did have and are willing to help alot genchrhiedlfoohnthe uOnOt help along the children of others who need assistance And anyhow, it's a poor citizen who would rather see promising bunch of boys growing up around him than to be pestered to death with a lot of youngsters who were born in civilization but re- verted back to ancestral types.
 Anyhow the "Y" is going to ask for the money and it's conscience is clear about it. It is going to ask for liberal donations and believes it will get them. Phoenix never yet lodged a real issue when it came to the psychological moment, however much it side-stepped in advance, so Phoenix is going to do the right thing this time.

CORPORATION
 COMMISSION
Files Complaint with I. c. C. for Preparation from Arizona Railroads on Flagstaff Clifton Carload Shipment of Boxes.

A complaint was filed before the Interstate commerce commission yes terday by the Arizona Corporation Commission through it's secretary. C. A. Smith. asking for reparation from the A. T. & s. F. railway; the Fl Paso and Southwestern railway and the Southern Pacific railway up- on a certain shipment of a carload of boxes from the Saninaw Manistee plant at Flagstaff to Clifton. Arizona made some short time back.
 It is alleged in the complaint that these three railways jointly contrived to handle the carload of boxes, which were in a knocked down condition in such a manner that they were hauled 300 miles more than was necessary and that excess freight charges were therefore assessed against the shipper of $12S.75. The carload in question was sent from Fla agstaff to Globe by Lordsburg, and there taken by the Fl Paso and Southwestern to Clifton.
 The complaint alleges that the route of shipment should have been from Flagstaff to Ashfork, to Mari copa to Lordsburg to Clifton Which it is also alleged would have been the most expeditions. and the cheaper for the consignee of the shipment.
