PRACTICAL HINTS.

When making hard soap, get goon
patent I've. Follow the directions tof
making soft soap, put in three pints Oh
water and five pounds Of fat and a
handful OF borax. Mark on INTO
cakes before it hardens.
Devonshire Cream.-This is so de-
licious that more people should know
how it is prepared. Put two quarts OF
fresh milk on the stove in a pan OF
cold water, bring very slowly to the
scalding point and keep 1t hot TOT
nearly an hour, being careful to never
allow it to boil; then remove from the
stove, set in cold water with Ice for
six hours. By this time the cream is
all collected on top, which is removed
with a skinner and kept until READY
to serve.
Rice Flour Pound cake.-Cream a
quarter Of a cup of butter with one
cup of powdered sugar, add the beat
en- yolks of two eggs, one teaspoonful
of vanilla, the grated rind of lemon
and half a cup of cold water. MIX
thoroughly and add one and half
cupfuls of rice flour, sifted with one
and half teaspoonfuls of baking pow
der. Add the whites of the eggs beat
en- stiff. Bake in small gem pans and
cover with fancy frosting. Garnish
with candied cherries.
A teaspoonful of I've in boiler OF
clothes will whiten them wonderfully.
Vinegar and salt will clean brass
we'll, though it is not pleasant to use'
If you have any broken places In the
skin of the hands.
German Cream Soup.-Cut thin
slices of bread as thin as shavings,
out them with small amount of but.
ter into a saucepan and stir until
we'll Drowned, then pour over enough
boiling water to make the amount OF
soup needed. Add salt to taste, and
let the water boil up; then remove the
saucepan and stir in large cup OF
sweet cream. If @ richer soup is de-
sired, add more cream to the soup. Be
sure to have it well sailed, or it will

FREE RANGE FOR CHICKENS
Modern Wire Fencing, Which Has
Neat Appearance, viii Keep All
Fowls Out of the Gardens.

The old method Of free range need
not necessarily be changed. The
fowls should not, however, be allowed
to run at will within the garden or
in and about tho farm buildings.
Nothing Ia more aggravating or dis
gushing than to have the nice veget-
ables or beautiful flowers scratched
up, and the doorsteps, the porch, the
barn floor and the farm machines
fouled with poultry droppings. Sep
arate the poultry also from the other
live stock of the farm.
If the fowls are to be kept near the
farm buildings, provide ample range
inclosed by modern poultry wire fenc-
ing. The latter requires ordinarily
but a few posts, is easily put up and
has a very neat appearance when in
position.
Another way of separating the
fowls from the center of farm opera
lions is to place the henhouses at a
considerable distance from the farm
stead, in pasture where the fowls
will have absolute range. The latter
plan may entail some extra. travel by
the poultryman and there is the risk
in some localities of depredations by
foxes, hawks or other wild animals
or by thieves. The young, strong
farmer boy may find advantage in
the second or so-called colony plan"
while the housewife will probably
prefer the fenced Enclosure near the
farmhouse.
Thirdly, the farmer is too careless
in the way he disposes Of his poultry
products. He Is usually. content to
trade his eggs at the nearest grocery
store when by a little extra effort he
could gain select private trade
which would pay far better. His
pure-bred stock Of one breed Of fowls
in their well-kept house and capacious
grassy yards will be great adVer'
tisement for his egg products, and
uniform clean appearance of the eggs
in their attractive package will prove
an additional help in making sales.
Then, too, in disposing of his fowls
the farmer often sells the birds alive
when by carefully dressing them OBJ
the farm and selling to his customers
on orders he could secure far better
prices.

CANDY FOR THE LITTLE ONES.

Candy which can be pulled is always
a delight to the childish heart, and
taffy will hold warm corner.

then pour out on plate. Slice when
cold.
cocoanut Cream Candy.-Boil to-
gether a cup and half of sugar, a
half cup of milk and two teaspoonfuls
of butter twenty minutes, stirring until
the sugar is dissolved. Remove from
the fire and add a cupful of cocoanut
and half teaspoonful of vanilla; beat

tins. This is especially delicious
poured over chocolate fudge.

white sugar in a granite sauce pan;
stir in one-half pound Of chopped figs,
then pour into a creased pan an inch
thick. Cut In strips and serve.

THE GIRL AND THE CHATTING
DISH.

For pure enjoyment, give US char
ing dish with few good materials 10
prepare, and a good time will surely
be the answer. From soups to lob
ster salad, there is nothing the m1no
of a woman will not dare. The accom-
paniments of sandwiches and rellshes
are, of course, essential.
For the young woman who enter
tains her girl friends at college OF
away from home, canned things are
the best and easiest to prepare. Many
delicious dishes may be prepared from
canned chicken, lobster, salmon and
peas.
Chicken WiegIe.--Melt tablespoon
full of butter, add two tablespoonfuls
Of flour, and when smooth add pint
of milk very slowly, and boil. Then
add a can of chicken, can of peas,
salt, pepper, and just before serving,
q beaten egg. Shrimp Wiggle is pre-
pared the same way, using shrimps in
stead of chicken.
Salmon Hollandaise.-Melt a table
spoonful of butter, add tablespoon
full of flour, and when smooth add
can of salmon and a can Of peas. Stir
until hot. Serve with lemon or put
lemon juice into the dish before serV"
ing. Serve on crackers.
A spread without candy is not to be
thought Of One nice candy which is
made without cooking Is the follow
ing: Take half pint cup, drop into
it white of egg, then pour in cold
water to half fill the cup. Stir until
it is foamy, then mix as much pow
dered sugar into it as it will hold, IN
til it can be handled. Then add flavor,
color. Add fruit to make a variety OF
kinds.
Delicious Salad--To go with any
spread this will honor the occasion:
A can of shredded pineapple drained
from it's juice, two cups pecans and
half a pound of marshmallows. May
onnaise with whipped cream to soften
it. This should really be called AM
brosia, a dish for the gods.

Prosperity of South Depends
Upon Diversified Farming and
Stock Raising.
ERADICATE CATTLE TICK
The South, Adapted to Live Stock
Growing, Should Lead the United
States in Production of Cattle
DO Not Import Food
Products-keep Money
at Home.

BY G. H. AFFORD, Agricultural "a
tension Department, International
Harvester Company of New Jersey.
During the last ten years our acre
yield increased, but not half as much
as the increase In population. We
have all heard the old Dutch
proverb quoted before. but we
cannot quote 1t too often: mo grass,
no stock no stock, no manure; no
manure, no crops" Holland Is almost
entirely a grass and stock country,
and lands are worth on an average
$500 per acre. These people have
found that they can make more out
of land from grass and live stock than
they can by cultivating it.
Unnumbered acres of hill land in
the cotton belt are making less than
one-third bale of cotton per acre, and
at the same time making poverty for
those filling them. The cost Of COM
mercial fertilizer applied annually Is
appalling. The razor-back terraces,
covered with weeds, grass and briars,
and the circles and short rows pre-
vent the use of labor-saving imple-
ments.
We are sending millions to the
northern states every year to pay for
pork products, dairy products and
beef. This money should be kept at
home and deposited in our banks I'M
til they are full to owerfiowfng and the
rate of interest lowered to, say, six
per cent, because Of the abundance
of money. Then we will have the
necessary money to build good roads,
to pay good teachers better salaries
to teach longer terms, to improve our
farms and to build comfortable homes
and put telephones and libraries IN
them. Then our boys and girls will
stay on the farm, and we will behold
prosperity in every department Of the
commercial world.
The south has an overwhelming adj
vantage ovel every other section in
live stock raising. We have great
climatic advantages that permit out

GOOD THINGS FOR THE TABLE.

A delicious filling for cakes which
will always be asked for again Is
Lemon Honey. Crate the rinds OF
three wcll-scrubbed lemons, press out
and strain the juice; put all together

cup of butter and a half pound OF
sugar When very hot mix two spoon
fuls with the well-beaten yolks OF SIX
eggs. Then add the eggs to the mix
ture and stir until smooth and thick.
This filling will keep in cool place
for some time.
Sea Foam Popcorn.-Discard all I'M
popped kernels from four quarts OF
corn and place in the oven to warm.
AS soon as a cup Of granulated sugar
and quarter Of a cup Of water bolls
take from the fire and add few drops
of pistachio coloring, then pour over
the corn in a fine stream. Stir brisk
" and sprinkle with powdered sugar
to separate the grains, then turn out
on waxed paper.
Steamed Fruit Roll.-Roll good rich
biscuit dough half an inch thick,
spread with butter and layer OF
good jam or marmalade. Roll tight
and place in a steamer on a plate and
steam for half an hour. Serve with
any desired sauce.
Burnt Almond Fudge. - Brown
