4 great many housewives have had
trouble in making rich, light, moist mullins
without their falling, and to overcome this,
they have rcsortcd to making the batter SO
stiff that when baked, the mullins are very
dry. A muffin can be made almost as
light and just as palatablc rs a pop-ovcr,
but to make light, moist muffin which is
rot soggy in the center, doublc-raise
baking powder such as X G must be used.
X c Baking Powder has two separate and
distinct raises: one when moisture is
added, and the other when heat is applied,
so that the raising is sustained until the
muffin is baked through, and all danger of
falling and becoming soggy is past.
Like biscuits, the softer the dough goes
into the oven, the lighter the mullins that
come out Of it.

Some HeLeful Suggestions

Mullins would be served on many more
breakfast tables if this meal were not
prepared so hurriedly that there is not time
lcnouGh to stir up mullins and bake them.
With K G double-raise baking powder, th-
batter may be stirred up the night before
land if set in a cool place, it will remain
in partially leavened condition all night,
and the raising viii be completed when put
in the oven in the morning. No difference
viii be noticed between mullins mixed the
night before and those mixed Immediately
before baking. This should not BE-
attempted however, with any of the old
fashioned single-acting baking powders.
The old fashioned way was to bake
mullins in a hot oven, but this makes q
thick heavy crust and sogy center,
which is unpalatable and hard to digest.
The proper and healthful way to bake
mullins is to start the oven at a low
temperature, just as for baking cakes.
When the mullins come up to the top of tho
pan, the heat should be raised, and they
should be baked until crisp crust is
formed. This crust will be thin, and the
centers will be found light and fluffy, but
thoroughly baked.
Always sift the -four and baking powder
together at least three times, no matter
what kind of pastry is to be made. This
will insure its rising evenly and the -four
is lightened by having air sifted into it.
Either water or milk may be used for
mullins. Milk will make the richer muffin
and brown better, but water will answer
the purpose very nicely when milk is not
to be had.
A most excellent spread" for mullins,
hot biscuits and hot cakes is made by
creaming together about equal parts of
butter and honey either strained or in the
comb. If the butter is solid it will work up
to about the consistency Of hard sauce and
it is simply delicious.

TO HANDLE FRUIT PROPERLY
Success of Grower Depends Largely
on Speed, Care and Thickness Of
Picking and Shipping.

On the speed, care and Thickness
Of fruit picking depends the success
of the grower. The man who piles his
apples In big heaps under the treee
and waits for an opportunity to get
them to market or into the ceHgf
never makes shining success as an
apple grower. =
Labor is the big problem when
fruits begin to ripen. Good "two-han@
ed" pickers are as hard to get as god
two-handed mixers, says a Michigsx
writer in the Farm Progress. / WI
not allow the pickers to use bags In
gathering apples. They bruise enough
apples to make them Improbable. Get
baskets, the canvas kind, if possit4e.
Those with the Mingled handles ara
best, as the basket can be eMptied
then without allowing the apples q
drop and roll.
Hooks to hang the baskets to the
limbs can be made by the neighbor.

worth all they will cost. When get
ting ready for the apple harvest do
not neglect to provide enough lad,
ders. Clambering around through the
branches of the trees should never be
tolerated. Light, strong ladders 81
the extension variety can be bought.
For low trees or peach picking use a
step-ladder with little platform on
the top where the basket may %
placed. leaving both hands free.
A great deal depends upon picking
fruit at the right time. Test 1t By
lifting the fruit gently and giving it
slight turn. If ripe enough for pick.
ing it will come loose without much
of pull. If the fruit is to be used d
home let the wind and sun color Il
all they will.
II 1t is to be shipped It must be
picked little earlier Apples shoxd
be allowed to get fairly ripe. Pears
for shipment must be picked some
what greener. Peaches should be al
lowed to color rather brilliantly, but
they must be firm and hard when
they are picked. This holds good FOR
plums, grapes and cherries

The Mountain Top Estates will be

est and grandest development and I'M
dertakings for Garrett county that could
possibly be realized, and it will result in
many of our residents becoming indie
