Intelligent Uss Of Butter.
1t Is almost universally admitted that
vegetables require the addition Of fat
In order that they may be at their best,
and there Is no fat which Is so suitable
as butter for the majority Of vege-
tables, judged by the character Of the
dish and also by its flavor.
Some housekeepers have a way of
looking upon the use OF butter, milk
and cream In the preparation Of vege-
tables, soups and sauces as II these in
gradients were simply ''luxuries" and
not food essentials. But It should be
remembered that these articles are
valuable foods and naturally increase
the food value OF the dish Of which
they form a part They are all whole
some foods, and, although generally
more expensive than the vegetable
foods with which they are combined.
their use In reasonable quantities Is
certainly to be recommended.
Increasing the cost of the dish by the
free use OF butter, cream. etc, may,
after all, be economy IL the increase is
intelligently made, and the vegetable
soups and purees made richer as well
as more appetizing by the addition Of
butter or cream combined with small
er quantities Of meat

Green string beans, onions. full
grown lima beans and other green gar
den vegetables are made more delicate
and palatable for many by blanching
them, to remove the strong or acrid
flavor, before cooking them. This is
done by dropping the prepared vege-
tables into a saucepan well filed with
boiling water and sailed. Immediately
brought back 70 boiling point and boil
ed continuously from FIVE to twenty
minutes, according to the kind and
condition Of the vegetable.
The cover, II used at all. should only
partially cover the saucepan. The
blanched vegetables must not stand in
this water. II not convenient to finish
cooking them at once, drain them
from the hot water. throw into cold

RECORD CROWD
OF HOBOES IN
NEARLY 1000 IN THRONG PASS
ED THROUGH MITCHELL
MOST OF THEM HAVE
MONEY.

Nearly as many of the unemploy-
ed passed through Mitchell by the
freight train route this morning as
went through the city during the en-
tire month ,,of,, July a year ago. It
was nearly double. the sizes'o the
largest crowds OF the tourists that
hAye been here this year.
;Mitchell's visitors comprised about
o&e-third ofsthe thronk that was sent
oft Of Sioux City yesterday morning,
Numbering about $500 About q
900 OF the army Of the unemployed
left the freight train ut the junction
al; Elk Point for Sioux Falls and to-
day are In the eastern part of the
state, the. remaining coming north in
this direction
The train, No. 81 reached the city
at $50 o'clock and within a few min
utes lower Main street was packed
with the throng. Practically all of
them had money and kept the stores
and restaurants on the jump to sup
ply them with food. The party de-
parted for the north on the s O'Clock
train. 1t Is said that many left the
train during the night on account of
the cold and sought shelter along the
route.
According to the records OF Wood
Smith, chief of police, about 4,47O Of
the travellers have gone through Nit
chell this month. Last year, the to-
tai for July was 1900. The esti-
mates were made from the crowds
on the trains pulling out Of the city.
About 80 of the tourists who arriv-
ed this morning went west to seek
employment at Mt. Vernon and other
stations between Mitchell and Cham
berlain. ~ ~
According to a letter deceived to-
day by Chief Smith from Charles
McCaffree, state immigration COM
missioner. there is plenty of work
for all harvest hands in the north
ern part of the state, provided that
they break into small groups and 60
out on the stub lines. In many In
stances, the farmers are loath to
seek hands from the large crowds.
Mr.. McCaffree stated that he had
been informed by the immigration
commissioner Of KanEas that 10000
harvest hands had been employed In
that state and had practically all
been shipped out by this line.
