TYPICAL DINNER IN FRANCE

A typical French dinner-not ar
exceptional one. mark you, but such
a dinner as a small bridesmaids fam
lily would have-is incomparably su
perior to the plain roast dinner.
There would be- first of all, few
relishes, according to the season OF
the year Radishes. ice cold. sardines,
olives, caviar. Just little of each
with which to awaken the appetite,
then the soup TO excite gently the
liquids of the throat and stomach,
then a little entree-usually a bit of
fish with its appropriate vegetable,
or a handful of vegetables favored
with meat sauce. Then, and not till
then, does the chief course appear.
Ii may be a roast, or game, or
chicken, or chops. but in no case will
1t be anything which is not in har
mony with the previous courses and it
will be eaten In moderation, for the

been dulled by the lighter foods which
have preceded II. With it comes the
salad-varied throughout the year by
all the possible changes Of the sea-
son. and never. never by any posi-
bility will il be such a dreadful green
hybrid as the romaine. strawberry
and green pepper thing. After the
salad there will be fruit or mellow
cheese, and then coffee 1t will take
two hours to eat such a dinner, but it
will take only half what the typical
American dinner costs to pay for it,
and there will be no Indigestion aft.

With the customary progress

their park two amusement de-

having to take the risks. The
areoplanes are controlled by
motors and each machine can
rise individually to a height of
65 #. The invention is controll-

DYNAMITE FOR TREE HOLES
Found to Be Satisfactory Method in
Replanting an Old Orchard
Use Care With Caps.
By W. a. IRVIN.)


l have used dynamite for digging
holes for trees, and am still using it
with satisfactory results. 1t is a good
plan to use in replanting an old or
chard. In my fifteen-yearo orchard
there were rocky spots where the sub
soil pillow failed to penetrate when the
orchard was first planted. and two or
three replantings since, where holes
were dug with pick and shovel, have
not been successful Dynamite did
the work all right.
There is little danger IN handling
the dynamite, but great care must be
used in handling the caps which ex-
plode it. | use half stick OF dyna-
mite for opening a hole in which a
tree Is to be set, and a whole stick is
used to blow out an old tree. My
men cut the fuse the length wanted
insert one end of the fuse in the cap,
and bore or gouge a hole in the dyna-
mite, in which the cap is inserted;
the dynamite is then tied fast in the
hole. A crowbar is used to punch a
hole In the soil to depth of about two
feet.

STRENGTHEN A WEAK CROTCH
Defective Places May Be Rraced by
Running Iron Rod Through Two
Limbs Of Tree.

CBy W. w. ROBBINS. Colorado Agricul-

Many trees have weak limbs and
develop bad crotches. In some cases
these result from injudicious prun-
ing, while often they are the express
sion of the natural habit of the vari-
ETY.. a familiar sight on our streets
Is the leaking Of the large crotches
Of cottonwoods. There is a strain of
the point where the two large limbs
meet. hence partial splitting, max
Ing an opening from which the sap
aXudes. This leakage is unsightly;
furthermore, weak crotches of trees
are dangerous to life and property
In most cases weak crotches may
be easily braced.
An excellent method of strengthen
Ing a weak crotch is to run an iron
rod through the two limbs which form
the undesirable crotch. A hole is
bored through the two limbs a short
distance above the crotch. This hole
should be made to fit the rod as near
ly as possible; this hole will not in
lure the tree. The rod should have
4 large head at one end and be
threaded for large nut at the
other. The rod is inserted and the
nut screwed up tightly. A one-inCh
rod will support a tremendous strain,
but the size will depend, of course,
upon the size of the limbs to be
braced.
