coon THINGS 70 EAT.

A most delicious conserve, confec-
tion or dessert, whichever occasion
demands, is prepared by stufflng a
half pound of pulled figs with salted
almonds. Put two tablespoonful OF
sugar, one teaspoonful of lemon juice
and half cup Of orange Juice over
the fire; when heated add figs, cover
and cook until the figs are tender,
turning and basting often.
Hot Rice Pudding-Wash a half
cupful of rice in cold water and put
it in double boiler with hot milk.
Cook quickly until tender, then add
two tablespoonfuls of sugar, two ta-
blespoonfuls of butter and half tea
spoonful of salt. Beat one egg until
light and add it to the rice, cooking
for one minute Pour into the dish
in which the pudding is sent to the
table. Mix two tablespoonfuls of su-
gar with two tablespoonfuls of butter
and third of teaspoonful of CHINA
mon; sprinkle over the top of the pud-
ding. This will make brown sauce
over the top. Serve hot,
Split Pea Soup.-Pick over a cupful
of dried split peas, wash them and
soak In plenty of cold water over
night. In the morning pour off the
water and put the peas into kettle
with two quarts of cold water, a two
inch cube of salt pork and one onion
sliced. Cook slowly until the peas
have become very soft, stirring fre-
quently from the bottom to prevent
burning. 1t will probably require four
or five hours to cook them properly.
When they are soft. rub them through
sieve, return to the kettle and re
heat. Cream together two tablespoon
fuls each of butter and -four, thin it
with a little of the boiling soup, add
two cupfuls OF milk and stir into the
soup. Season with salt and pepper
and serve very hot.
French Beanss-Fresh string beans
are preferred for this dish, though the
canned variety will answer. If fresh
beans are used cook Nuntil tender,
drain, then put back into the sauce
pan with bits of finely chopped onion,
parsley, celery and little meat stock.
Boil up WE'LL then add the yolks of two
eggs well beaten with the juice of
lemon, and serve hot.
A little pot of stock should never be
wanting in any housekeeper's store, as
there are SO many dishes which are
greatly improved by a cupful of well
favored stock. This stock need not
be made of especially prepared bones
or meat; it may be mixture of chick
en- bones. beefsteak bone or bits of
any kind of meat cooked and the
broth strained and kept in cold
place.

IasHERE one has an old neglected
orchard of so per cent or more

IaSHERE one has an old neglected
orchard of so per cent or more
of sound trees it will be more
satisfactory to renovate and secure I'M
mediate returns in fruit than to plant a
new orchard, says the Indiana Farmer.
The advantages Of renoyating an old
orchard are that the trees are already
set and established in the soil and that
often a good crop Of choice fruit may
be secured the first fruiting season
after the orchard has been rejuvenated.
Also, if the trees are not too old and
diseased, often the cleaning up and
starting the trees to fruiting anew the
old orchard may bear profitably for
almost as long as new one.
One Of the first things to do in re-
storing an old orchard is to 60 through
it and find out what trees are too de-
cated and diseased to be Of any future
value. These should be cut out, root
and branch, and consigned to the fire.
to destroy the insects and germs which
caused the trouble. Cutting them out will
not only make the orchard cleaner and
freer from insect pests and disease, but
it will give soil room for the good trees
and the extra open spaces will let in
more light and allow better circulation
of air. Leave these spaces open for
cultivation and the growth Of cover
crops.
Young Trees in Old Orchards.
1t seldom pays to replant an old or
chard with young trees. The soil is
already occupied with growing roots OF
older trees, which makes it difficult for
the younger tree to extract nourish-
ment from the soil, light and air are
cut off by the larger trees, and there
are more chances of diseases and insect
nests. After all the decayed and un-
desirable trees have been grubbed and
burned go over the remaining trees and
cut ont all the dead branches, burning
them in the orchard as soon as removed
from the trees. Saw these branches off
with a sharp fine saw, smooth with
green wood so that healing over may
take place, if possible. If convenient,
paint these sears over with thick
coat of oil and lead paint to seal up the
cracks and pores for excluding water
and the germs of disease.
A scar ON any tree is fruitful
SPOT for infection, which may al
feet the large branch Or body of the
tree, causing hollow rotting. Cover the
wounds with paint and induce healing
by trimming close to green wood, for
this will prevent further decay. No fur
ther pruning will be necessary unless
the tops of the trees are very thick
with live branches. In such case, trim
out the thickest portions OF small
branches, and remove all interfering
ones. Do not cut out many large
branches, as the trees may receive Q
shock to defeat the purpose of whicf
the work is intended, and do not reduce
the height of the tops Of any trees ex
cept peaches. "' f'r """

and Medicine Owl insisted on exchang-
ing compliments with Mrs. Castle
through the interpreter, Eagle Calf.
The absence of an orchestra almost
prevented the Castles from dancing, for
Mrs. Castle feared to take the stage
without music. Then Eagle Calf sug-
gested the tomtoms, and the difficulty
was bridged. Mr.. and Mrs. Castle in
vited them to be the horored guests at

I, her aunt and guardian, wondered
if it was anxiety for her absent lover,
Willard Hull, that had brought on
this deep abstraction. But when
spoke of the estimable young man
whom we all liked intensely, she only
smiled and spoke quietly of his speedy
return, as though her heart were at
perfect ease regarding him and his
prospects.

She had been out late the evening

Evans had also attended.
We were close friends with the
music teacher, and in my anxiety and

mood that had held Elida in strange
thrall all that day.

that it would not be from any idle

TO REFORM CALI
FORN|A LIQUOR Law
(By United Press.)

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. Coon
fident that the hour has struck for
sweeping reforms in the retail distribu-
tion of intoxicating liquors in Califor-
mia, the California Grape Protective
association, through Attorney Theo-
dore Bell, has announced its inten-
tions to take the initiative in a legis-
lative reform program. This is to be
done DESPITE the fact that California
voters overwhelmingly defeated a
proposed prohibition amendment to
the state constitution at the Novem-
Der elections. The legislative program
which the association hopes to put
through is as follows:
"Courty option, except in cities
having 5000 or more inhabitants; in
licensed territory, not more than one
SELDOM for each 1000 inhabitants or
major fraction thereof, exclusive of
table licenses for Iotels and restaur-
ants; separate licenses to sell malt
and fermented liquors, as distinguish
ed from distilled liquors, no saloon
license to be issued to an individual,
but only to property, under heavy
bond, to be responsible for the faith
full observance of the law, unlawful
for any wine maker, brewer, distiller
or wholesaler to have any pecuniary
interest in a saloon, midnight and
Sunday closing; anti-treat law; dras-
tie laws concerning the sale of intox-
icating liquor to minors, women or TO
persons in an intoxicated or partial
lv intoxicated condition; such limita-
tions and restrictions respecting the
granting of licenses in license terri
tory as will forever eliminate dives
