One Of the many minor inventions
that are 80 useful in the kitchen is the
kettle spoon holder designed by a Mas
s~achusetts man and shown in the H.
l%ustration. It obviates the necessity Of
having a saucer, plate or cup standing
e the cook to hold the stirring spoon
when the latter is not in use. The
holder Is made Of aluminium and con-
sists of a saucer shaped piece with per-
forations and a hook by which 1t may
be hung " the edge of a kettle, the
wide portion inside. Then as the spoon
is taken from the food it can be laid
on the holder, and the drippings drop
through the perforations into the con
tents Of the kettle. Another advantage
Of the holder is the fact that the spoon
Is always at hand when wanted.
Right Way to Boil Ham.
The discussion Of ways to boil ham
may seem to some entirely superfuous,
yet have you never noticed that some
hams retain that rich red color and
perfect taste, while others have a
brownish color and the meat comes
apart? This difference lies in the man.
ner of boiling. A good ham put on in
cold water and cooked slowly, or al
lowed to stand for awhile without
cooking will lose much Of its nutrition.
The proper way to cook a ham Is to
put It on in water that is already hot,
just beginning to simmer. If it can
be kept at this temperature, which is a
few degrees below the boiling point,
80 much the better. At any rate, 1t
should not boil vigorously. For every
pound of ham let it boil a quarter of
an hour. Thus a sixteen pound ham
would require four hours to properly
cook. When put in hot water the out
er layers Of meat are cooked at once.
thus preventing the escape of juices
which will take place in cold water.

IN TAXES

The total taxes on farm lands east

$4,008, 629. 20 and in 1913 $4,720, 436.55.
Taxes more than doubled in six years.
The total state tax, in the state, In
1906 was SAP, 800. 78; in 1912 Slab
015.31; and in 1913 $1,195,455.22. State
taxes about trebled In six years, while
the population has increased less
than 800 and the 1913 state tax will
not pay the state expense within $427,-
900 according to the state auditors
figures. For the present state regime

CANAL TOLLS AND SUBSIDY

Mr.. Taft frankly admits that the pur-
pose in exempting vessels built in the
United States from payment of tolls
is to substitute American ships. Sub
sidy in any form is protection. 1t may
be that American ships should be pro-
tected, but the expediency of protect
ing them in such a way as to imperil
our relations with foreign powers
would appear to be open to grave
doubt. Why not frankly recognize this
fact and let subsidy, if we must have
it. take a form less offensive to sister
nations New York Commercial.

SENATOR CRAWFORD ADMIRED
BY ASSOCIATES

In proving a mans reputation and
character in a court of law we seek 1t,
not among his enemies, mol yet among
his intimate friends, but from his dis
interested associates. What do the
disinterested associates say Of Senator
Crawford? Just read what Senator
Cummins, the Progressive leader of
Iowa, says of him.
Washington, d. c.
Jan. eth, 1914.
Senator Crawford, Is one of the most
sincere, earnest and capable Progress
sive Republicans in the senate, and SO
far as / am personally concerned l
should look upon 1t as a great loss to
the Progressive cause should he be de-
feated.
Yours very truly,
Albert B. Cummins."
Here's what Ex-senator Beveridge,
Of Indiana, said of Senator Crawford
at Aberdeen s. D., On May 9th, 1912,
relative to Crawford's fight on Lori
mer. the man who bought his way into
the United States senate from Illinois:
Every citizen in the entire nation
owes a debt Of gratitude to your Sena-
tor Coe L. Crawford. In the very be.
ginning Of the fight Mr.. Crawford
made n Of the best speeches I have
ever heard delivered anywhere"
Now notice what Harper's Weekly,
In the issue Of February 14th, 1914,
says Of him:
Crawford, Progressive Republican,
is an able and honest man."
Don't believe what we have to say
about the Senator II you don't want to;
all we ask Is that you believe what the
leaders of the Progressive movement,
men like Gronna, Cummins, La Fol.
lette and Beverage, have to say of
him.-Adv.
