MUST NOT BE WELL COOKED
Point Necessary for Housewife to Re.
member When Preparing Dishes
That Contain Cheese.

II may be interesting to note that
when the United States agricultural
department experimental on the d.
gesibility of cheese few years ago
1t named as the most digestible
cheeses, besides the so-called Ameri-
can cheese Of the first quality. Swiss.
Roquefort. Camembert and cottage
cheese. Another point which the gov
ernment bulletin pointed out was that
care should be taken In using cheese
in cooking not to burn II or even cook
1t thoroughly, for there are various
digestive disturbances which might
arise from the consumption Of burned
or decomposed fats. For this reason
In preparing dishes "au gratin"-
that Is, dishes baked with a sprinkling
of cheese-the cheese should not be
added till the cooking process has
been completed. The cheese should
be added at the last moment and al
lowed merely to melt. but not to
brown.
The Italian who makes his midday
lunch on bread and cheese and little
greens dressed with oil and possibly a
little light wine and sweet. ripe fruit
has about as sensible and as well-pro-
portioned a meal as he could get.
though he had studied the science OF
dietetics all his life.
One OF the best ways to make use
of the food value Of cheese Is to use
1t on vegetables.

Best Soil for Alfalfa.

Alfalfa seems to do best on sandy
loan soils that have a good supply of
plant food and are well drained.
though 1t has been known to have
grown in a heavy clay soil. 1t will
do well on any soil that will produce
wheat or corn. The field designed
for alfalfa should be selected with the
view OF leaving it for several years.
The plant seems to reach its prime in
four years and can. as rule, be left
in a field proftably for seven or eight
years. No difficulty is experienced In
getting alfalfa out of field, If it is SO
desired, If field of 1t is plowed in
midsummer and kept well cultivated.

Assessors Ask six-Year Term.

Denver.-A proposed constitutional
amendment by which the term OF
office of county assessors will be
changed from two years to six years
will be submitted to tbs people by in
itiat1on in November, according to a
decision reached by the Colorado
assessors at the final session Of their
conference with the state tax commits
sion. The assessors hold that two
years is not sufficient time for an
officer to become sufficiently acquaint-
ed with the complicated duties of his
position to give the public the best
service They will therefore initiate
an amendment and submit it to the
people, on the ground that the change
would work for higher efficiency in
the administration of the public busi-
ness.

10 driven into a board. Some one found
several years ago IL the lower end Of
a telephone post was pointed and a
rope vas coiled about it like a screw
thread. the post could be screwed into
soft earth easily. The same idea is
now being used in a reinforced con.
crete fence post which was recently
patented. When the post is nodded,
the lower end is tapered slightly and
a spiral thread of concrete is formed
as an integral part of the base. Greater
lightness is secured In the post by
molding the upper part in the form Of
three slender reinforced rods of con-
crete tied together with solid rings at
intervals. This construction makes
possible the use Of heavy club stuck
through between the concrete rods to
furnish a leverage for screwing the
post into the ground.-Chicago Trib-

PREPARING FOR CLOVER CROP
Often a Good Plan to Break Ground
the Preceding Spring and Grow
FertiiixIng Crop.

II the aim is to get clover and
grass on thin soil 1t is often good
plan to break the ground the preced-
ing spring and to grow fertilizing
crop during the summer that can be
cultivated and then dsked into the
surface soil. When cowpeas can be
grown they ATE excellent for the pur-
pose.
On very thin land I have gotten the
finest clover sod in this way, says a
writer In an exchange. Expensive
way? someone asks. Well, any way
of covering thin soil with a heavy
clover sod is not inexpensive. like
the plan. The tillage kills weed seeds
and frees fertility. The vines are
chopped in the surface before they be,
come tough. The humus is just where
1t is needed and the soil is firm.
II one prefers, rape may be sown

table matter at the surface. Or tim
othy may be sown in the fall and clio.
yer added in the spring. Or wheat
may be seeded and clover in the

Surface Soil Which Allows an Excess

Right Cultivation at the Proper Time
Would Have Prevented This.

tant that the furrow-slice pulverize as

Plowed land readily absorbs rain

SAYS ISLE OF SAFETYIS
A REAL AID TO TRAFFIC

After having an accurate count kept

fed that the isle OF safety" the con-
crete pillar erected in the intersection
to divide the traffic. is real benefit
and that it promotes safety. as the
commission believed when its erection
was authorized. The count was made
to refute the claims of autoists who
have threatened TO petition the removal
of the isle since the accident there
last week in which an automobile de-
molished the pillar and sustained some
damage in the operation.
Mr.. Eastman finds that less than
two per cent of the vehicles now turn
ing the corner fail to observe the regu-
lations. whereas. if the isle were not
there he is satisfied that the number
would he much larger. He will oppose
the agitation for removal.
