MANY USES FOR MINT
VARIETY OF WAYS IN WHICH IT
MAY BE EMPLOYED.
Valuable as FIavorlng, Where IL Is
Not Desired In ouantity-As
sherbet-Proper Method
Of Drying.

Mint In Soups, Salads and Vegeta-
bles.-Cucumber salad, or an apple
and celery salad. is greatly improved
by sprinkle Of fine, chopped mint
leaves. Just a suspicion OF mint with
cooked peas, or a cream OF pea or po-
tato soup, is a great addition to lamb
or veal salad.
Mint Jelly.-This is also an approved
accompaniment for lamb or mutton.
To make IL pour a pint Of boiling wa
ter over a bunch of fresh bruised mint
leaves and simmer gently ten or IF
teen minutes; strain. and to a pint Of
the hot liquid allow one package Of
currant, lemon or any of the quick
process acid jellies or half a package
OF gelatin soaked half an hour in cold
water to dissolve; add sugar to sweet
en- and lemon juice to make acid as
desired. Stir until thoroughly dis
solved, then set away to cool. AS 1t
begins to stiffen stir in two table
spoonfuls OF capers, pour into one
gOod-sized mold or tiny individual
ones and set away to harden. When
cold and firm turn out and garnish
with tiny sprigs of fresh mint.
Mint Vinegar.-Put crushed mint
leaves in a wide-mouthed bottle, then
I'LL up with good cider vinegar. In
three weeks pour of clear into another
bottle. This is fine for favoring pur-
poses when fresh mint cannot be had.
and almost a sure cure for a headache
when bound upon the forehead.
Currant-Mint Sauce for Game.-Sep-
arate a glass of currant jelly into
pieces, but do not break; add two Ia
blespoons of fine chopped mint leaves
and the thin shavings from the yellow
rind of half orange.
Mint Sherbet-Bruise heaping cup
o. mint leaves slightly, pour over them
a pint OF boiling water and steep, COW
cred, for 20 minutes. Add a cup of
sugar and the grated yellow rind or
the juice of a lemon, cover again and
leave until cold. Strain and pour into
the freezer can, pack with equal guam
titles of salt and ice and freeze 10 a
mushlike consistency. Scrape of the
sides and dasher and cover until ready
TO serve. For state occasions this same
sherbet may be enriched by adding the
Juice of three oranges, the same
amount Of pineapple juice and when
half frozen the whites Of two eggs
beaten stiff. A wineglass of any pre-
ferred wine may also be added If de-
sired.
In Drying Ninth drying any of
the mint family for winter use, pick
before blossoming time. hang in the
garnet heads down or on sheets of pa
per spread on the floor Of an unused
room. When quite dry put into paper
bags again with heads down, fasten
tightly and suspend from a beam for
future reference.

ONE OF BEST DISINFECTANTS
We Should Take Advantage Of Sun.
light at Every Opportunity
Destroys Disease Germs.

Sunlight is one Of the best and
cheapest disinfectants at our disposal.
and we should take advantage of this
fact at every opportunity. In the con-
struction Of barns or shelters of any
kind for animals, ample provision
should be made for the admission Of
the maximum amount of sunlight.
Southern exposure is desirable, that is,
having the majority of the windows
facing the south. The warmth this
provides In cold weather is desirable,
and much OF the excessive heat In
summer can be avoided by providing
suitable curtains or screens. Most
disease germs are easily killed by d.
rect sunlight, as has been repeatedly
shown by experiments.

ness and this weakness is very likely
to be transmitted to the foal
The writer well recalls a case in point
when a thoroughbred stallion of high
merits, superb breeding and splendid
racing record became injured very
badly on the fore foot which put a
quietus to his turf career, the injury
developed into a pumiced foot, the
whole foot being abnormally large.
This stallion was placed in the stud

good colts, but several Of them devel-
oped club foot. So by all means breed
