Buttermilk Cake

Just let me slip into the Corner for a few minutes. I have been silent reader as long as I can. I am staying with my dear old mother, taking care of her. She is rather feeble and needs care. She is S2, but there are family crcum- stances that make it unpleasant for me to come to her. My daughter wishes me to come to her, but feel that my duty is with my mother. What would you advise me to do? Stay with my dear old mother or go to my daughter? Here is buttermilk cake: Two cups of sugar, scant cup of lard, two eggs, two cups of buttermilk; three cups of flour, a handful of raisins, three heaping teaspoons of chocolate or cocoa, one teaspoon of ground cloves and cinnamon, one level teaspoon of soda, scant teaspoon of bak- ing powder. Bake rather slowly in three layers, or two if liked better. Filling: One cup of sugar. half cup of cream, two heaping teaspoons of cocoa; boil unti, ropy.' Put between the layers. If this doesn't feed the waste basket, will come again.

The Useful Cassava

The cassava is a root. manihot utilis- sima, which grows very much our potato and may weigh as much as 25 or 30 pounds. Ordinarily it is dug up when it is about the size of large beet. In the raw state it is highly poisonous, the juice containing hydrocyanic acid. The root is cleaned by scraping it with a knife, then it is sliced and grated. The grating is done on a board with pieces of tin nailed to it. The tin has previously been perforated so that the upper surface is roughened like the out side of nutmeg grater. This coars flour is then heated over hot charcoal fire. In this way the hydrocyanic acid Is dissipated by the heat-a sort of wooden hoe, or rake being used to keep the flour from burning.

Local Pride

From an Exchange.
 A metropolitan theatrical production which carried it's own orchestra played small town. As the theatre had an or chestra of it's own, they doubled up." One night there was an awful discord, and the man in charge of the production noticed that the local musicians were playing half tone lower than the com pany's orchestra.
 What's the matter?" whispered the producer to the local orchestra leader. "Your men are playing half a tone lower .han the others
 Sure they are," said the leader
 That's the only way we can let the au- dience know that we've got two orches- tras."

Banishes Insect Pests

.'Six years ago I moved into this house and it was alive with bedbugs The only remedy I used was carboic acid and a feather such as comes from chickens
 wings or tails took off the tin ends from the bed springs polSed the acid into every crevice possible. and went over everything in the room where the bugs were likely to be. It kills the nits and stops their breeding. But as the larger bugs will try to get away from the smell it is best to put little in all the rooms. I have not seen a bug in my house after the first month so I know what this acid will do. with no bad after effects Protect the hands with gloves

 Another correspondent has word with regard to roaches
 My own experience goes to prove that frequent visits to kitchen pantry and gar bage pail on the part of the housekeeper will do more to keep reaches out of the house than all the borax and patented salts in the market Keep meats GOV cred with wire shields, and keep bread and cake and sugar in the boxes made for them. Leave no scraps lying around and never leave the cover off the garbage pail. Let the cook comprehend that her interests and yours are identical in this matter, and never remit tours of inspec- ticn.

Eggs in Brine

Pretty postal cards pasted with ad- dress sides together are sure to be wei comed by invalids and children. I be- long to neither class but have enjoyed them myself I congratulate the Corner upon being the medium by which so many inexpensive pleasures come to the many who cannot afford to purchase amuse- ments You advise wisely, Let nothing be wasted Now for friendly word with my fellow housemothers: preserve eggs for winter by brine made of one pint of lime, one of salt (rock salt if possible and it is pure), and three gallons of water. A hole cut in the side of box with a candle or light of any sort inside enables one to test the eggs. They must show clear when held over the hole. Pack small ends down, pour over the brine, and they are all right for months. They are as good as fresh eggs, except for boiling. The brine softens the shells and they crack when boiled. Be sure to use a stone jar.
 MRS. w. c. L."
 Our member comes up gallantly to her part of the work of making the Corner a meeting ground for housemothers far and near. What one has learned of and for herself, in the line of domestic economy (using the term in the widest sence) she should feel bound by the unwritten law of our Corner to share with her fellow workers. Tn this mission of mercy noth- ing is trivial that will lessen the binding of the harness anywhere We hope to hear from this comrade again and often.
 How to Wash Sweater
 Please tell me how to wash a sweater? shall watch the Corner. I am sending in a burnt sugar cake and hope some one may try it: Place one-half cup sugar in pan over the fire. Stir until liquid smokes and burns brown. Add one-half cup of boiling water and cook into a syrup one cup of butter one and one half cups of sugar, yolks of two eggs, one cup of water, and two cups of flour. Beat all thoroughly. Add enough of the burnt sugar to flavor it, also teaspoon of vanilla, another half cup of flour, two teaspoons of baking powder and whites of two eggs. Bake in two layers, using remainder of burnt sugar for icing.
