Peach Pool May Auction

Reports from Fresno indicate that
the steps for organizing big peach
pool on lines parallel with the "raisin
trust" are progressing favorably The
growers have contributed freely, and
now business men are coming forward
70 show their desire 10 have the peach
industry placed on the same high plane
Of prosperity as the raisin trade.
The five Fresno banks, acting
through their clearing house, have
subscribed $1,000 each for the stock Of

have subscribed $500 each.
Harris Weinstock, Director Of the
Department Of Markets for California
is back Of the movement. While in
New York, he investigated market
conditions and sent the following wire
to the California growers:

limited number OF Eastern jobbing

Not for many years have the children
Of New York enjoyed such a winter as
the weather man has provided this
year. There have been half a dozen
snowstorms. and some Of the time the
lakes have been covered with ice for
skaters. You may easily believe that
skates and sleds have been much in
use. Little New Workers do not let
such opportunities go to waste, for
some Of them remember winters when
there was not snow or ice enough to
give them a chance to enjoy the sports
Of winter. The young lad in the pic
ture has probably seen very little snow
in his lifetime. However, he Is max
ing up for whatever time he has lost.
His name is Duncan van Norden, and
he was shoveling snow in Central park

Fortunes In Farthinas.

II is well known that shopkeepers
make pounds by ignoring farthings or
by giving something for them that Is
worth far less than a farthing, but
where shopkeepers make the pounds
banks and the English government
make their hundreds Of pounds. II a
farthing is due from you in taxes you
are charged onepence. On the other
hand, you are never paid onepence for
farthing.
The same principle is applied to frac-
lions of pounds. Banks In reckoning
interest for themselves call any part
of FL a full pound, whereas In reckon
ing interest for you odd shillings are
left out Of account Thus for a de-
posit of 800 9s. lid you would receive

Variety
Che Spice
Of Life

No one problem Is daily more yexa-
tious than what shall we have to
eatp Not only once but three times
day does the same plant arise. Most
families are in peculiar rut as to their
eating and manner of cooking. For in
stance, In one family there Is a too
frequent appearance Of pot roast, mash
ed potatoes and brown gravy. Another
family will not tolerate anything but
broiled meat and runs up expensive
bills for chops and steaks A third
family never has soup, and still anOth-
er has every dessert pudding.
Is it not possible and easy also to
vary more greatly our American
menus? Is not this just the time of
year to install some new methods of
cooking the old familiar dishes? Why
must rice always be used as a cereal
or as a basis for tasteless rice pud-
ding? Other countries use it with
meat, with spiced gravy, and make
It the basis of a meal either as a curry
or pilaf.
Is it not possible to take the piece of
chuck and cook it in some other way
than as the unending pot roast? 1t could
be seasoned with sage or capers stuff
ed with dressing and served with a
tomato instead of a brown sauce. In
the matter of soups. many of US go on
In the same unvarying way Of vegeta-
BILE bouillOn and tomato bisque. How
about all the other purees. green dried
peas, yellow split peas, onions, carrots?
How about the many kinds Of soups
with balls, with noodles or spaetzle?
There is not a foreign nation but ex-
cells US in the variety Of its soups. So,
too, with potatoes. Why always the
same mashed, boiled or creamed? I'm
der the hands Of a competent cook they
become tasteful varied and really in
teresting. Cheese, brown stock, lemon
juice, all these can be added to pota-
toes, and there is even a book on 1O1
different kinds of potatoes.
No one thing will make for greater
economy in our cooking than greater
variety. Instead of the steak that we
think must always be broiled we can
use skirt steak" or flank, and have
a delicious casserole dish at half the
price. Instead Of the soup that uses
expensive vegetables we can have a
simple stock or PURGE for less money.
Instead of a dessert needing three eggs
or more we can create substitutes
which taste and look just as attrac-
tive, but in which only a single egg or
none is used. Variety in cooking, new
dishes, new flavors-these will help
the housewife set better table at less
money.

Uses of Bicarbonate of Soda.

Bicarbonate of soda should always
be kept In an easily accessible place in
the kitchen. Applied Immediately to a
burn and moistened it will relieve the
pain.
A pinch added to any fruits or vege-
tables will make them more palatable,
and less sugar will be needed Use a
quarter of a teaspoonful to two quarts
of fruit, fresh, or to one pound Of evap-
grated fruit.
Fill new cooking utensils with cold
water to which one teaspoonful Of
soda has been added and boil it. Then
wash the utensils with good soap and
water, dry, and they are ready for use.
Bicarbonate Of soda added to the
water in which old vegetables are
cooked will make them green and

Show Your Gratitude.

Gratitude is one of the prett1est
posies in the bouquet Of human virtues
Cultivate it and it will bloom always
Gratitude costs nothing, but repays
much, and yet it is a gem Of character
that Is rare indeed.
Never forget the friend who threw
you the life line. To do that Is treason
Of the rankest kind. Keep green in your
heart the memory of every obligation
and lose no opportunity to repay it
Show your gratitude for kind act
done you by doing a kind act for some
one else.
A grateful 'eThank your for a seat In
a street car reimburses the man who
hangs to a strap. Silently accept the
seat as a matter Of course and you
have started that man on the slide to
selfshness.
Kick out of your selfish shell and ex-
press your gratitude on the least provo
cation. If you never give gratitude
never expect it. In proportion to your
gratitude so will you be graded by your
fellow men.-Boston Post

Poisonous Flowers.

Flowers Of the jonquil, white hya-

Juice Of the leaves is an emetic.

His Little Lot.

There were some interesting episodes
I'm the life of Sir Charles Euan-Smitn-
Once in the market place Of an At
ghanistan town he was fired at by a
native. He lodged a complaint with
the ameer, who appeared to take no
notice of the incident, merely remark
ing, That's all right" Sir Charles
complained again and met with the
same reply. He still thought that the
ameer was treating a serious matter
with less consideration than it deserv-
ed, but thought 1t advisable to say no
more on the subject. About a week
afterward he was invited by the ameer
to ride with him. They rode for some
distance outside the town, and they
passed gibbet after gibbet- At length
Sir Charles said, "Your highness has
been busy Of late" "Oh, no." replied
the ameer: they are your little lot"

would be assassin's family and hanged

The Chickens, Surprise Party.

In southern California the dry sea-
son lasts from six to eight months, so
there were some good sized chicks In
our yard that had never seen rain.
writes a correspondent of the Orange
Judd Farm.
One morning a little cloud suddenly
began to send down some big drops on
the dry soil The chicks evidently
thought some one was throwing grain
to them. They flew at the drops, this
way and that. trying to pick them up.
Peck as fast as they would they could
not get bite of anything. They heard
the pattering; they saw the spots on
the ground; they jumped about like
crazy chickens, pushed each other
about and looked skyward in their
funny sideways fashion.
When the shower became heavy they
flew to shelter. huddled together and
cheeped pitifully. How we wished we
could have understood what they said
to each other about then!

Did as He Was Told,

One evening. just as it was getting
dusk, laborer walked down the main
street Of the city. Coming to poultry
dealers place, he stopped and gazed
admiring1y at the fowls and game dis
played on the window slab. One tur-
key Of about fifteen pounds weight
took his fancy. After running his
fingers through the coins In his trou-
sers pockets a few times he decided
on having that turkey. Picking it up
he entered the shop. The shopman was
very busy. Jest weigh this bird for
me, will ye?' said he. "Why don't
you take your bird somewhere else to
be weighed?" snappily replied the
poulterer without looking up. "Oh,
kin do that all right" he replied, cheer

out with it--London Tit-Bits.
