ROOFS TOO MUCH NEGLECTED.
Valuable Space in City That Is Seldom
Put to Any Kind of
Use Today.

At a convention of owners and man.
ayers OF "skyscrapers, held recently
in Duluth, one of the speakers made
an interesting prophecy as to the fu-
ture uses of the tall building, empha-
sizing in particular the neglected roof.
bungalows built on top Of tall build
ings,' he predicted, will house the
owners in summer. A permit for such
bungalow has already been taken
out in Chicago
The rather odd suggestion brings up
the whole problem of wasted opportu-
mites which the roof of the average
tall building presents. Long ago the
hotels realized what an asset roof Is.
and developed the roof garden In a
number of the middle western cities
the upper floors and roofs Of CONNER
cial buildings are leased by the
prominent city clubs, which thus Sc
cure airy and quiet quarters with fine
restaurant location, in the very heart
Of the city.

CRANBERRY in VARIOUS Ways
IsIlled Berries Seem TO Have che
Preferenee-Always Cook the
Fruit With the srgar.

There are several formR In which
the cranberry may appear on the
Thanksgiving table; It may be as
the conventional cranberry

sloppy, sour. watery substance. in
which the skins and seeds are un-
duly prominent. to the mold OF jelly
or jellled berries. To make a jelly
or marmalade, cook the cranberries
with az little water as possible TO
prevent burning, for q few minutes
only, until they are soft; drain in
u cloth for Jelly. or rub quickly
through a stralner for marmRlade. Re

dishes.
The jellied berries are preferred
by many. To prepare IN this way
pick over and wash the fruit; to one
quart add a pound Of sugar and a
cupful OF water. Cook rapidly until
each berry has cracked open, then
put In molds. When cold, many OF
the berries will be as round as be-
fore cooking, but tender and filed with
Jelly.
C%ranberries prepared in this fash
ion may be used for pies, either

VALUABLE FEED FOR FOWLS
In Repeated Tests Hens Given skim
Milk Make Much Better Record
Than Those Given Water.

To test the value OF skim milk for
laying hens, sixty pullets we're put in
two pens, equally divided, Of one va
riety and all as near OF an age as pos
sible. They we're fed exactly alike,
keeping strict account OF their feed,
but given different drinks. One pen
had sweet skim milk, while the other
had only plenty Of fresh water.
This test was begun on November l
and accounts were balanced with both
pens on May / following. The hens
that drank the water had but a little
over half as much credit for eggs
laid, while their feed had cost nearly
a third more than the hens which
were fed skim milk. Some days in
the very coolest weather the thirty
milk.fed pullets laid twenty.eight eggs,
and their average for January was
twenty-four eggs daily. The skim.
milk-fed hens not only produced many
more eggs. but they did not consume
as much food as those In the Other
pen.
Since then these tests have been
repeatedly tried with different breeds
and with the same rsults.
