MAGAZINE REVIEW
Dalmations a Fine Race.

Robert Hickens, the novelist, who j:
again writing travel series for the
Century Magazine" describes in the
March Century" the people of pic
turesque Dalmatia," the edge of the
Balkan war zone. They are handsome
people, he says, rustic-looking, yet often
noble, with kind yet bold faces, steady
eyes, and a magnificent physique. Their
gait is large and loose. There are giants
in Dalmatia in our days. And many of
the women are not only pretty, but have
delightful expressions, open, pure aud
gay. There seems to be nothing to fear
in Dalmatia. / have driven through the
wilds and over the TANKS of the noun
tains both in Dalmatia and Herzegovina,

pleasant experience. The peasants have
a high reputation for honesty and gen
eral probity, as well as for courage. And
beggars are scarce, if they exist at all,
in Dalmatia.

condition. Fully a hundred shows o
| this kind have been arranged in variou
parts of the country. The object, o
| course, is to have the children measured
and Judged according to standards O
physical perfection drawn up by some o
the greatest physicians in the country
thus stimulating throughout the country
increased interest in the care and physi
cal training of children. Following is al
extract from the April Companion, Civ
ing brief account of baby show held
in Denver:
"The National Western Stock associa
ton, which met this year in Denver, de
cided to have a better babies contest in
connection with its annual exhibitiin. Tic
help arouse interest among men and
women, the Woman's Home Companion
decided to offer special prizes. And il
was at this show that the national
movement for better babies had its pub
lie beginning, at 3 o'clock on Friday aft
ernoon, January a. 1913.
Five thousand people were gathered
in the amphitheatre of the stock yards
in Denver, an arena equalled only by
Madison Square Garden in New York
City.
FIFTY babies there were, splendidly
formed, perfectly healthy, prize winning
babies from one to three years old. The
five thousand people burst into an ac-
claim that is like to be heard around the
world.
"Eagerness to hear the awards Quoted
the crowd for time. As each name
was called through the megaphone, the
little prize winner was lifted up on the
table. decorated with gay ribbon and
heartily applauded. When the prizes
awarded by the National Western Stock
association had all been distributed, the
man with the megaphone announced to
the four corners of the amphitheatre
that the prizes offered would be award
ed. The first prize of 500 in gold to
the best city baby was won by Ethel
Magdalen Chamberlain, No. 1898 Broad
way, Denver; score 9S.45. The prize of
500 in gold for the best rural baby
was won by Ralph Gullett, Golden Rural

HUERTA CLAIMS VICTORY
Rebels Under Carranza, Say Government
Officials, Have Been Beaten at Saltillo.

Mexico City, March 25.-The rebels
who attacked Saltillo were repulsed on
Sunday night by the federals after the
latter were reinforced by General Casso
Lopez. General Lopez, reporting to the
war department, says that detachment
is following the scattered rebel forces.
The rebels made their last stand in an
old fort known as "Fuerte Americana"
but were dislodged by the federal nfan-
try, advancing under the cover of ar
tilery. General Trucy ALBERT has a
strong force at Monterey and the gov
eminent is not worried over the threat
ened attack upon that city. Keen sat
isfaction was expressed by the govern
ment officials over the victory at Sal
tillo, which is the first important en-
gagement OF the present administration,
but the public are not SO enthusiastic,
because the operations of Venustiano
Carranza so far south, with consider
able body of adherents, appears to re-
veal unexpected strength. The railroad
has been cut to the south of Saltillo.

Advantages of climate and altitude
have brought the cities of southern Ari-
IONA great social problem, the problem
of imported tuberculosis. To deal with
it, | suggested to the social agencies of
Phoenix the following covenant:
First, we, the people of Arizona, rec
ognize that the only real way of making
Roadway against the mass of tuberculo-
sis is through local treatment all over
the country. Nevertheless, we hold our
fayoring climate free TO all.
Second. we will provide through pri-
vste and public agencies, physicians and
citizens, the necessary supervision of all
tuberculous cases within the borders of
the state. This in itself is pretty large
and expensive job and has scarcely been
touched as yet. Not even is registration
of cases required. and the neglect of
fumigation is simply shocking.
Third, having accepted these heavy
burdens, public and private. the people
of Arizona demand that Others provide
the living expenses of every one who
seeks its climate.

ENTERTAINING Ik WINTER
How To Prevent the Bitter Taste--Help
For Other Difficulties.

As we are among the many people who
make bus little butter during part OF
the winter, it has been study how to
prevent the bitter taste so often pres
ent in winter butter, also how to han.
die the cream so that there should be
no trouble in getting the butter to come,
writes Mrs. James Coward in the Rural
New Yorker. In our case no amount of
care in sterilizing milk utensils would
prevent slightly bitter taste in cream
only 80 hours from the COW, Even If
the cream could be churned every day,
which would hardly be practicable with
so small amount, | know of no way
to ripen such cream without its aequir-
ing the same bitter taste/ After much
experimenting we have now in use plan
which, to us at least seems entirely sat
isfaetory During the winter, while the
milk supply is small. we use the sep
arator but once day. The milk at
night is strained in pan and set in
a cool place. In the morning the thick
part OF the cream is SKINNED from this
milk, or it may be stirred into the milk,
warmed and put with the mornings milk
through the separator. As soon as the
cream is cool, it is scalded by placing
the pail containing it in dish of hot
water on the stove Inc cream is then
put in the coolest place available, which,
in our case, is near an open pantry win
dow. The cream should be stirred ocea
sionallv both while scalding and cool
ing. When cold it is stirred thorough
" into the accumulated cream of the
lay before, which is also kept in cool
place. This will keep sweet and con-
tain no bitter taste for week or more.
The churning is done once a week.
About "a hours before cream is to be
'hurned, one pint of buttermilk is added
o it. The temperature of the cream is
hen raised to 20 degrees and kept about
here till the cream begins to thicken
