How 10 Cook Endjvea.

y ta.- ! - H. u
The following Is an excellent French
way Of cooking the endives: Boil the
leaves In lots of.salt and water; when
tender, pour the whole thing into a
large seive, and, as soon as the hot
water has drained away. put the sieve
under tap and let cold water run on
.lt for a few minutes. After the cold
water, put the endives on chopping
board or rub 1t through fine sieve;
In both cases return 1t to the fire after
putting it into china saucepan, with
q pat Of butter and one teaspoonful Of
fine -four. Melt and mix the butter
and -four, stir in the vegetable. and
let 1t simmer 15aminutes. Add lit
tie cream or milk quite at the last mo-
ment, to make it look soft and pretty.

should insist on the proper use Of
straw. 1t is valuable when properly
used.
Farm manure is perishable pro-

ligence ofthe maximum value is to be
obtained. feel safe in saying as
manure is handled on the majority Of
farms less than one-half of its true
worth is realized.
The greatest loss is the waste OF
the liquid through teaching. Improp-
er absorption of urine is the first.
Then the teaching due to rains on the
manure heap or barn yard. The most
valued element is the nitrogen which
is easily lost by teaching, furthermore,
considerable portion of both the
phosphoric acid and potash el.m.nai-
ed through intestine is in a so.uable
form.
Provide water tight cutters b2h nd
animals standing i nstalls. By use of
plenty of straw as litter the liquid
may be absorbed. The next propo-
sition is to get the manure on..thc
field without waste of plant food
The best plan, under most conditions
is to haul manure direct from stable
to field and spread it. Where this
is not possible tight battomed pit

! MORE FAST HORSES
Enthusiasm for Racing Cousins
Buys Mabel Wilkes.

l
Among the number cf towns that
have joined the racing circuit for the
corning season and one that will no
doubt make or break records in that
line is our own City Of Morris. Sew
eral very good up to date racing
horses are owned and trained by citi-
zeias of this place.
q Dea Cousins has pair of trotters
and PAGERS that will no doubt set a
pace hard to follow taking previous
records into consideration. Mr.. Cou-
sins has recently purchased Mabel
Wilkes a horse well known thruout
the Northwest on account of her good
work on the Hamline track at the last
state fair. This horse has mark
of 2 :134 pacing and 2:244 trotting.
She has trotted miles in her work on
Hamline track in 2:161 pacing and
can now trot nearly as fast as she can
pace. Mabel Wilkes made mark of
2 :10a pacing at Montivedeo in 1912.
Another horse owned by Mr.. Cou-
sins is High Robert Junior that is. also
we'll and favorably known thruout
the racing circuit. High Robert has
mark Of 2:344 pacing and seems
to be doing better every year.
With these horses and several
others very fast horses owned by To-
cal parties there will no doubt be
something in the racing game the
coming season.

This is . New One.

Are YOU sure that someone has not
slipped around and put q mortgage
on to your farm? The other day
Carl Strand living near Fergus Falls
in Otter Tail county, received a notice
that q 81. $50 mortgage against his
land was past due and that the holders
Of the mortgage wanted him to come
in and pay the interest. Mr.. Strand
could not remember Of having placed
q mortgage upon his farm SO be hurried
to town to investigate. At the reg
lister ofsdeeds Office he found that the
plaster covered his quarter section
alright and at the real estate office
he found that the owner of the mort
gage wanted his money.
After some explanations and in
vestigation it appeared that about a
year ago man. who had represented
himself as Mr.. Strand, called at the
loan Office OF Lake & Lowry. presented
an abstract to the Strand farm and
asked for ST, 356 loan. The farm
being valuable one and everything
else appearing to be all right the
loan was quickly made and the strang-
er departed with the proceeds. Moth
ing more was thought about the matt
er until this fall when the first note
became due and Mr.. Strand was noti-
fed to come in and pay it. The
swfndle was a clear one and the party
who got the money, having had q
years start is doubtless safely beyond
the clutches Of the law. The loan
firm is out large sum of money and
ths land title will be more or less
Iclogded until the mortgage is satis-
fed.
The possibilities of this kind of
a swindle are unlimited unless the
loan men have an acquaintance large
enough to know practically all of
the land owners of the county. -
