CleVerness of Chinese.
1t Is acknowledged that the Chinese
are very sldllful in making confection-
cry and possess the reputation of hay
ing many secrets. They are able to
empty an orange of its pulp entirely,
then fill it up with fruit Jelly without
one being able to find the smallest
cut in the rind or even a tiny hole.
Indeed, they even empty an egg in
this manner and fill it with a sort of
almond nougat without one being able
to find the slightest break or incision
in the shell.

milk handled is not great enough to
warrant the use of a separate building,
the milk house must be combined with
either the farmhouse or the ice house.
Under certain conditions, the farmer
might desire an extension to his house
which would include both the ice
house and the milk house. A farm
house designed in this way is among
others in a group of designs recently
prepared by the United States depart
ment of agriculture. If such a scheme
is not used, the combined building
should, at least, be placed as near the
farmhouse as possible.
There are certain conditions which
must be taken into account in building
the ice house. The first is that its To-
cation must be such that good drain
age is possible. There is always a loss
by melting and the water must be car
ried well away from the building and
disposed of either in the soil, through
a drainage system already in place or
by connection with stream. The de-
sign will account for the other condi-
construction of the walls and roof of
the building to secure sufficient in
sulatiOn to prevent undue loss. Struc-
tural tile has been found an excellent
material for the construction of farm
ice houses. Its ordinary use provides
