Brine for Pickles.

It is the custom with vegetables
such as tomatoes and cucumbers to
soak them In brine before putting
them through the regular picking
process. The brine IS probably used
because it withdraws moisture from
the tissue Of the vegetable and makes
it possible to obtain a frmer result,
renders q milder flavor. gives the de-
sired salt taste. and adds to the keep
ing quality Of the pickles.
The strength of the brine required
depends on the length of time the
vegetable to be picked is to remain
in the brine.
Too strong Il brine softens and
spoils the vegetable. The proportions
should be: To one quart of water add
one-third to one-half cupful salt. The
brine should be strong enough to float
fresh egg.

The People Paw,

The people of the United States are
paying war prices for a great many ar
ticles of everyday use because those
articles are not produced at home. In
other words, they are having prac-
teal demonstration at SO much per of
the democratic free trade idea. The
idea is that we ought to buy where we
can buy cheapest. 1t may have worked
In the old days, but it doesn't work
now, because all the cheap sources OF
supply are closed. If the old Repub-
lican idea of protecting industry in our
own country had been followed con-
sistently for the last ten or fifteen
years we should have had factories
busy in the production of all these
things, and our people would be able
TO purchase them at reasonable prices.
Right now the mistake of abandoning
the theory Of protection is costing the
people Of this country more than 1t
costs any European nation TO do Its
part in the war.-Yakina Republic.

year. China has for years been In an
unsettled condition, yet the country s
foreign trade mounted higher and high
err until the European war, when the
trade was crippled. Wherever rail-
road has been built in China new trade
opportunities have sprung up and new
markets have been created. On the

ounces of pure white soap cut into

a glass jar and covered tightly it will
last two weeks. This paste will cleanse
kid gloves and satin slippers, remove

always at hand In the kitchen. To re-
move paint from clothing saturate the
spots two or three times with equal
parts Of ammonia and turpentine and

WASHING Shirt Waists.

When washing shirt waists OK mid
dies which have colored collar and
cuffs, the color will sometimes run into
the white goods. To remove this stain
place the article in very sour butter
milk for four to five days, keeping the
goods well under the milk. The color
will disappear from the white goods
and the colored collar and cuffs will
remain as before. I have tried this in
q number of cases Of different articles
and find it entirely satisfactory-New
