Eve After Lamhlnn.

After lambing, ewes should not be
fed too heavily for week or two.
Bran alone is a good ration for the
first few days. Gradually the ration
can be increased, using one part
bran, one part oil meal and five parts
corn.
Sheep may be turned out earlier
than other farm stock, for they seem
to thrive better when allowed to keep
down rank growth of grass In their
pastures. But when they are first
turned out they should be fed some
dry supplementary foods until they
get somewhat accustomed to grass.

BEEF BRAIsED A La BRlssE
Change From the Familiar Roast is
Something That viii Be Appre-
ciated BY the Family.

Take a rump piece of beef, weigh
ing at least eight pounds, and lard it
with half pound of salt pork, cut in
long, half-inch square pieces. Season
well with allspice, chopped parsley,
and little garlic. Tie up firmly and
place in the stew pan with four
ounces of melted beef suet; fry brisk
ly until crisp brown all over. Drain
off the fat, add quart of broth made
from bones and trimming, two cups
tomato sauce; bunch of parsley; two
onions, and about quart and pint Of
quartered turnips. Let boil up, then
cover and let simmer gently for near
ly three hours. Take out the beef and
place on a platter and rub the vegeta-
bles through sieve into the sauce
pan, skim off all fat from the gravy
and reduce to the consistency of their
sauce, then press the turnips, etc.,
through fine sieve to make puree.
Turn onto the platter and place the
meat on the puree. Pour some of
the gravy over the meat and serve.

protection for Trees.

Some orchardists have been sue
cessful in protecting their trees by
smearing the trunks near the ground
with mixtures which are distasteful
to rabbits. For this purpose white.
wash, mixture of glue and copperas,
decoction Of quassia chips and blood
or grease, have been used. Mechan.

wrapping is more permanent and ef.

Three Cheers.

A town meeting had been called to

Choose the medium sized, well

Don't forget a little salt in the

The hens must be made to exercise

PROPER CARE OF CUT GLASS
Elaborate Precautions Necessary to
Preserve the Beautiful But Ex-
tremely Delicate Article.


Cut glass is very fashionable now,
and is used upon the dinner table and
In the drawing room with great sue
cess. But, alasl How easily it can
be Clipped and spoiled. What precau-
tions can be taken with the precious
pieces?
Cut glass must be handled very care
fully when it is washed, so that no risk
is run of chipping it, A wooden bowl
will help.
Place in a wooden bowl some shaw
ings of mild white soap and pour over
these boiling water.
When the water has become luke
warm wash the glass in the suds, u.s.
ing soft nail brush. Then dip the
glass in a second wooden bowl, this
time filled with clear lukewarm water,
until all traces of soap is removed.
Now dip the glass into third bowl
of luke warm water to which bluing
has been added (for the bluing will
give brilliance to the glass) and then
dry it with very soft cloth. Polish
1t with soft tissue paper.
Gilded and patterned china may
well be washed in the same carefnl
way, but the blueing should be omit

Compressed sponaes.

A compressed sponge is bit OF
toilette daintiness intended specially
for travellers, though it appeals as well
to the stay-at-home who is an ultra.
hygienist. The sponge is of com.
pressed absorbent cotton about the
size of a twenty-five cent piece, and
half an inch in thickness. Dropped
into water it becomes saturated and
expands to the size of a small face
cloth, large enough to wipe the face

Being honest Is the greater part of
achievement. When you know that
you're doing the best within you, you
can't be downed. Self-respect is an
eternal life preserver--no matter how

bound to float back to solid ground
again. When men strive for posts of
trust, they must be somewhat post
