the next. That is to say, in a
season when there has been
great deal of heat and sunshine
there will be more sugar in fruit
than in cold, wet season; conse-
quently a pint of currant juice
will require three-fourths of a
pint of sugar. But if it is a cold,
wet season the pint of currant
juice will require generous pint
of sugar.
Jelly sometimes crystallizes
from too hard boiling. If syrup
boils rapidly the crystals are
thrown on the sides of the kettle.
If these crystals are stirred into
the syrup they are likely to cause
the whole mass to crystallize-
Jelly made by the cold process
is more delicate than that made
by boiling, but it does not keep
so well.
Jellies are so rich in sugar that
bacteria and yeast do not attack
them They must be protected
from mo1ds. A thick coating of
paraffin makes a good cover, but
is not quite SO safe as the paper
dipped in brandy, because the
spirits destroy and remove spores
that may happen to rest on the
jelly. Parafin may be poured
over branded paper.
AS part of this subject one
might include the making of mar
malades, fruit juices, syrups and
vinegars, all cooling and refresh
ing aids to digestion when not
taken in excess.

cover them, and the cooker is
fastened up.
In canning vegetables, place
the cans, after filling with the
vegetables, water and some salt,
in the steam cooker until the con-
tents are boiling hot; then put
them in the fireless cooker. By
this method the cans do not have
to be opened to refill; there is no
danger from handling hot cans
and no extra heat used in the
kitchen. 1t is just as necessary
to sterilize every article used in
the process as when the other
methods are used.
In making preserves small jelly
glasses should be used. The gen
eral rule is equal weights of
sugar and fruit We might speak
of one method, called the plat
ter" method, of preserving, using
strawberries, for example. Put
sugar and berries in layers, hav-
ing not more than four inches in
all in the kettle. Heat slowly to
boiling point, boil ten minutes
from the time it begins to bubble.
Pour this on a platter two or
three inches deep and let stand
in a sunny window in an unused
room three or four days. In that
time the fruit will grow plump
and firm and thicken almost to a
jelly. Put this preserve, cold,
into lars Or tI1rnb1erS
In the making of jelly house
keepers feel less sure than in any
other kind of preserving; since a

grow Mo1ds do not work so
freely in canned fruits as raw
Canning is from all points the
most desirable way of caring for
fruits, making only enough rich
preserves to serve for variety and
for special occasions.
There are several methods of
canning fruits, as follows:
First, by simply stewing the
fruit in an open kettle and then
sealing in jars.
Second, by cooking in jars in
the oven. Put the raw fruit in
jars filled with syrup, boiling hot,
and place jars uncovered in the
oven on sheet of asbestos paper
or in a pan with a little water
in it; cook about ten minutes. If
fruit has settled, refill and seal
jars.
Tomatoes cooked in the oven
are fine. First stew a few toma-
toes and strain. Then fill cans
with fresh peeled tomatoes, pour
with the stewed tomatoes. Cook
uncovered half hour; refill and
seal.
Third, by cooking in jars in a
water bath. By this method
prepare the fruit and syrup as for
cooking in the oven Fill the
sterilized jars and put covers on
loosely. Have a wooden rack in
bottom of wash boiler and
enough warm water to come
about four inches above the rack
Place the filled cans on the rack,
separating the cans by cloth or
ropes, so they will not bump to-
gether when the water boils.
Cover the boiler and cook fruit
ten minutes from the time the
water boils. Refill cans with
syrup and seal.
In canning vegetables by this
method the process is much long

SURPRISE RsHYHn aY n,MMwR

On July 25, the children and grand children of N. w. Teter surprised him with a birthday dinner at his home, four miles northeast of Green Forest, where he has lived the past 35 years, until about a year ago, when he he decided to retire from farm life and move to town.
 So complete was the surprise that the old gentleman did not once suspect that dinner was being prepared until the noon hour, when the guests began to arrive with boxes and baskets filled with good things to eat, which were spread under the great oak trees near the sprin g. Uncle Noah, as he is familiarly known, says he owes his long life to this spring, which is the finest water in the country.
 Besides the children and grand children, number of friends were also there, four generation of the Teter family being pres ent.
 After dinner was served the afternoon was spent in pleasant conversation until time for the guests to return home. There were 69 present and all returned home, wishing Uncle Noah, who is 66 years old, many more such pleasant birthdays, and feeling that all were better by having been thus associated.

INSURE YOUR CORN CROP; BUILD
 A S9LQ.

4 silo is not only the safest form of crop insurance for the Arkansas farmer according to H. E. Dvorachek, animal hus- bandman at the Arkansas experi- ment station, but is stock insur- ance as well. The succulent form of feed helps to keep the herd in good health, and insures a milk flow. The farmers who have silos are not uneasy about what they shall do with their corn. crop this year. Even if there has been a seemingly over abundant yield in some sections of Arkansas. The farmer with the silo is confident of g market. And many farmers who, before this year, have not thought of investing in silos are now asking themselves, What kind shall ] build?'' The value of silage as a feed cannot be oyerestimated during any year; but in a veal like this the siIo is the best mar ket for corn. R. II. Mason, fel6 agent for the United States de

FOR SUCCESSFUL DAIRYlNG
Quality Sets Price on Milk, Cream
 and Butter.

Where whole milk is delivered to the creamery in Q sweet. condition and separated there, the subject of grading is unheard of, because the resulting cream is all of a good uniform quaI- itv
 The policy Of paying a patron just as much for 9 pound of butter fat in bad cream as in good cream is surely unjust to the patron who thinks well enough of his product and himself to take care of his cream and keep 1t clean. A number of creameries fn several states have attempted to xpu. into effect a grading system and pays patrons according to quality The plan has been quite successful in some cases. However, it's success would be assured were it adopted more uni yersally.
 Plan For Grading Creams.
 The plan in general is to grade cream as 1t arrives at the creamery into three grades according to quality. and pay a different price for each grade. Grade one to be clean, sweet cream, and commanding from three to five cents more per pound of bnt- ter fat than grade. two, which is hut moderately sour but clean, of good oder and flavor, and free from foreien matter. Such creameries reject grade three cream or buy it at a great reduc- ton and churn out the fat to be sold at renovating plants where it is used in the manufacture of renovated but. ter. It often brings about half as much as grade one.
 Dirty Milk Under Ban.
 The above plan should be encour. aged, as under the old system of ac. cepting all cream at the same price. 2 premium is being placed on dirty and careless dairy practice. Unless we do something Of this sort the ana,- fly of the butter made is hound fo he. como gradually poorer. Where qual- ity is lacking prices are sure to 20 down. Then some good old prophet VIII announce that there is no money in the dairy business, but he will ike ly faii to qualify the statement hy making it. There is no money in the dirty and careless dairy business.9 II. E. DTorachea, Animal Husbandman

The peanut grows best on we. drained, loose, sandy Ioam soils of medium fertility, which should be prepared thoroughly, this will maLe less work in caring for the growins erop.
 When barnyard manure is used a. @ fertilizer it should be applied to the preceding crop that the peanut may get the resultant effect Com ncrcial fertilizer may be applied iu the bed of the TOW just previous to the planting of the crop. Apply 2e3 t0 500 pounds of commercial fertiiizer containing two per cent of nitrogca, 8 per cent of phcsDhoric acid and to per cent Of poeash. The Der ceot oi nitrogen should be increased if Q previous green manure crop has rot been turned under. Soils low in lins should receive an application of 58J to eco pounds of line to encouraga xF09ef ripenins of the fruit.
 Variety TYres,
 There are two general variety typee CT peanuts those vitH large pods, th5 Virginia Runner and the Virgin.a Bunch type and those with small pod, spanish and Tennessee Red type. Tns Virginia type is useG chiefly for roass- ing purposes; the other are recon meDded for Gil content and as forasa. The Spanish is the commercial Fa- Ticty for Arkansas
 Only the very best of the crop should be saved for seed and planted in @ special patch. An ideal piaGt should produce 9 large number if pods well flied with seed, uniform i3 size, shape and color. The 1arge. pod varieties of peanuts are always sheIeI before planting, care being used ret to break the seed covering. Spaash peanuts may be planted with CT wHH- out the pod To hasten eermina4oa. soak the no5s 9 few hours just prs. vleHs to planting. Plant in rows , to 9 Z feet apart. with the plants ( to f2 inches apart in .a roN5 depending un5a the variety.
 Marking of Fieid.
 In planting mark the field off 5a rows as in corn planting, and usa q ose-horse planter similar to the one. horse cotton planter. For haad plau5. iEg open up the rows With 6 snail shovel marker and drop in seed at proper distance. Cover to death of E to ? inches. Begin cultivation with g. harrow as soon as the ogs,a fs planted. After the crop is wei ID, start cultiFating between the rows with a small shoveled cuItiYator and keep the soil in a loose condition for pod setting. It is desirable to force loose dirt with cultiyator up to the plant, but do not cover the vines.
