much greater execution when the
ground is full of water. This is espe-
cially true in the light or open soil,
such as the light ash or loan soils,
the sandy or gravelly loans. Again,
when there is some old, water soaked
logs, shoot them early in the season
thus giving them all the time possible
to burn so that they can be dried
out. And the slashing should also be
done as early as possible after the
foliage is out and some care taken in
falling the brush and timber in places
where the material is not thick. A
little extra effort to fall portions to-
gether in windows or heaps is con-
ducive of better burns. We have
good burn, practically everything
cleaned up from the first fire.
There has been considerable prog
ress in the power methods of clearing
land. Electricity, steam, and horse
power are utilized now as never be-
fore, and the application of fire to
the roots of the big stump, called the
charpit method, is steadily growing in
favor. This is especially adapted to
tho needs of the home builder as no
expensive equipment is needed; but,
like all new methods, it has its adap-
tations and limitations. We have OBJ
served in travelling over our territory
that there is a constantly increasing
number making use of this method.

Looking 1t Ooer

New York Masons raised $500 to
redeem a gold Knights Templar in
vitation to President Mckinley. The
invitation plate was found in the
stock of pawnbroker, who refused
to sell it for less than $1,000. The
invitation was sent to President Me-
Kinley from California.
John Allen, farmer living near
Enid, Oklahoma, is $500 better off
through a kick by mule. His skull
was fractured and he was taken to a
hospital, where he submitted to an
operation. After the surgeon was
done with him, Allen remembered
where he had hidden the $500. Dur
ing the panic of 1907 Allen became
timid about leaving his money in
bank in Enid and withdrew it. He
buried the money. A few days after
ward he was injured in runaway
and lost all memory of his cache.
After his second injury and the re-
sulting operation, Allen went out and
recovered his fortune.

PICNIC OUTFIT

There are five requisites for the

malta and a good place for the feast.
One should be beguiIed by the pic.
turesQueness Of a woodland brookside,
with its nodding ferns. That corner
is the gathering place Of the busy
mosquito. A dry, shaded spot on the
outskirts of a forest or Under a big
tree at the end of meadow Is an
excellent selection.
AS to company, each hostess must
judge for herself, but as to edibles
and paraphernalia perhaps few hints
may be welcomed. Here. as at home,
the meal must be well balanced,
There is a tendency to carry too many
sweets to the woodland spread. Plenty
OF sandwiches containing cheese meat
or egg mixtures should be taken along.
As to cakes, leave at home those
that are likely to crumble or become
sticky on. the journey, such as layer
cakes and cellars. Avoid. all fruits
that are so juicy they cannot be eaten
with the hand. Many person has
thoughtlessly packed oranges in the
picnic hamper, forgetting that finger
bowls do. not grow on trees. Bananas
and apples and other dry fruits are
more appropriate for such spreads.
II one possesses refrigerator bias
ket and can carry 1t without trouble
salads and other good things of a
perishable nature can be taken to
make the feast more attractive.
Tin boxes that crackers come in
make excellent sandwich boxes, and
will keep their contents as fresh as
the nickel boxes that come for the
spnfp6se<iff the ready anAde outfits.
Following is a list that is well
worth consulting If the family is
planning a picnic: Plates, cups
knives, forks, spoons, napkins, table
cloth, jelly glass or tin box for but
ter, salt shaker, pepper shaker, tin
cracker boxes for sandwiches, cake
box, glass bottles for alcohol, cream
salad dressing, ETC., box for stuffed
eggs ior meat loaf.
Besides these, one must remember
to carry along the can opener, IL one
has purchased canned goods. A pan
to hold drinking water is necessary
at most picnics, but remember to take
one OF aluminium or papier mache, as
they are especially light in weight
| Wide-mouthed bottles which factory
pickles and sweetmeats come in car
be used for cream, salad dressing
chow-chow. or marmalade A stout
pasteboard box is better for holding
cake than tin, because it is lighter
Other foods, too, can be better carried
in neat pasteboard boxes.
