o Much Water?

It IL q safe rule to provide 1vA
pounds Of water for every pound Of
milk that the COW gives. This will
mean that at least ~ gallons q dap
should be supplied. Cases have been
known where a COW would drink Is
or 80 gallons per day in the warmest
weather. Such a COW. however, will
produce 10000 or 10000 pounds Of
milk a year. The supply should BE-
as liberal accordingly In the win ter az
In the summer. Always the water
should be pure and In the win ter It
should be warmed to at least so de-
grees. 1t IL cheaper to war; the wa
ter with q tank heater than to make
the COW do the work with alfalfa and
high price concentrates.

Laying Drains,

In laying tile drains. Prof. e. G.
Nppin Of the New York State Agri-
cultural college, says the main drains
should be large enough to provide for
future expansion. For the lateral
drains never use anything less than
three or three and one-half inches In
diameter. In clay soils he recon-
mends laterals not over so feet apart
and at a depth Of two and one-half to
three feet. The denser the soil the
more shallow the drains must be laid.
In laying drains In clay 1t should be
done In summer. when the land IL
dry, and be sure the clay 10 dried
out before 1t Is thrown back in the
itch.

SHOULD BE SIN MERED
VOiLING CHICKEN Is A CASTRO.
NOMIC ERROR.
Fowl Always Should Be Rubbed With
Lemon Before CookIno-MIstake
to Salt the Water to
Start With.

Our most scientific cooks say tina,
the way to boil an egg is not to boil
1t. Paradoxically, we may say the
same thing about a chicken. for the
way to boil a chicken Is not to boil it.
but to simmer 1t.
In nine cases out of ten In cooking.
the lesser fire does the better work.
and this Is especially true in the boil
ing of all meats. They must be boiled
very, very slowly. which Is the same
thing al saying they must be sim
mered.
Any ancient bird al be simmered
until the meat will part from the
bones. but any young chicken can be
boiled as tough az the pr%overbial old
hen-the meat clinging to the bones
and seeming to be all bone and ten
don.
The best way to start the prepared
chicken is to pour boiling water over
It. let 1t boil up for a few brief min
utes-ave Is usually about all 1t will
stand-then lessen the fire. Skim and
keep covered while cooking.
Do not salt the water to start with,
az Jul old-fashioned recipes told us to
do. Put the salt In when the chicken
Is half done. A good cook with the
knack can do almost anything in this
way, and spoil neither the broth nor
the bouilli.
To insure greater tenderness, some
cooks rub their boiling chicken with a
lemon before putting it on to cook.
Others put q tablespoon or two of
vinegar into the water. Neither Of
these things do any harm. and either
may lessen any rank quality present.
But they are not absolutely necessary
to the securing Of a tender product.
Notice that 1t is the pot for boiling
rather than the stewpan. There is
Just as much difference in the boiling
OF things in a thick iron pot. which
holds the heat and distributes even
gas heat, as between the thin bot
toned frying pan and one thick bot
toned. For very quick cooking the
Embroidered frying pan Is out Of the
question. as We know, because q meat
will burn SO quickly In It.
We have a greater number Of uses
for cold chicken In summer than in
winter. and. by the way. it is general
ly better to let our chicken cool in
the liquor In which 1t was cooked and
stay in 1t until we are ready to use
It.
II there is one thing more than an
other concerning which tastes differ,
1t Is IN the making of this salad. The
AMOUNT Of celery used varies from
one-third as much as chicken to one
and a half times as much celery as
meat. Equal parts Of chicken. celery
n cabbage are sometimes used, and
the dressings are legion. from the
expensive mayonnaise to the inexpen.
sive boiled dressings. The salad may
also be garnished to suit the taste.
Some Of the older garnishes were
boiled beets and hard boiled eggs,
which a Japanese cook will turn into
roses. tulips and some quite uniden-
tiiable blossoms. plus checker work
and various parquetry.

NEWS OF CAPT. SCOTT
 EXPECTED IN MARCH

NEW YORK, Jan. g. - News that Capt. Scott reached the South Pole, or failed to do so, may be expected before the end of next March, ac- cording to Herbert G. Pointing, a mem. Der of Capt Scott's expedition.
 Writing to the London Times on Capt. Scott's plans and purposes, Mir Pointing denies that Capt. Scott was ever in the race for the South Pole, but was leading a great scientific eX- petition, and confined his attention to that object. He writes:
 Since my return to England from the Antarctic, having completed my work of illustrating Capt Scott's ex- petition, have found that much mis- apprehension exists in regard to the objects of that enterprise. The popu- lar idea that there has been a race to the South Pole is an error. Capt Scott has not been racing, nor has he been engaged upon a mere dash to the Pole. He is leading a great scientific ex- pedition-perhaps the greatest ever sent out from England - and the reaching of the South Pole was but an incident in the extensive program of work mapped out To race would have been to jeopardize the success of the main objects of the expedition, and Capt. Scott would not allow the presence of a rival in the field to move him from the course which he considered wisest and best
