PrickIy Pear Makes Fodder.

The utilization of the prickiy pear IN
the production of feeding cakes for
cattle is reported by the British and
South African Export Gazette as en-
gag'ng the attention of South African
agI.culturists. For this purpose it is
sald TO have food values Of high quail
,ty. Its value was demonstrated dur
ing recent drought, when only by Its
use were the farmers able 10 keep
their cattle. sheep, goats and ostriches
alive. The result is that many are
now actually planting what they for
rierly tried to exterminate.

The greatest return will be realized
from money spent in farm buildings
when these structures are especially
designed for the purpose which they
are to serve. A horse barn should diff
fer in several respects from any other
building on the farm. Certain condi-
tons required in order that the. horses
may be kept in the best of health form
the fundamental considerations in
drawing up the design. Second to this
Is convenience in attending to the
wants and needs of the horses.
The determination of size is an i'm
portant consideration in designing the
horse barn. The matterswili depend
hTseiy upon the manner III WHICH the
farmer is in the habit of keeping his
horses. Some farmers have large
number of horses which they work
during the summer and turn out in the
yards and sheds to winter. Such farm
Frs usually raise horses to sell and al
ways have more than they need. 9th

horses which are required to do the

Inventors Luck.

The greatest inventions do not al
ways bring the larger financial re.
wards. Roller skates are said to have
brought their inventor $3,000,000
while nearly $5,000,000 was realized
by the man who first devised boot
laces. The inventor of the safety pin
who took the idea from a reproduc-
ton Of Pompeian fresco, made $10,.
100000. On the other hand, Charles
Bourseul, who discovered and de
scribed the principle of the telephone
in 1855, died poor. Michaux, the in
ventor of the bicycle, ended his days
in the utmost penury, and Frederick
Savage, who Is. credited with the in
vention of the screw propeller, was
imprisoned and died bankrupt and in
sane.

of the barn. 1t would probably be adj
visable to put a. concrete floor in this
building the full size Of the stable part
and the carriage room. On the farm,
the carriage washing is done outside Of
the carriage room or barn. A wooden
rack may be placed on sloping area
convenient to the hydrant, where the
work may be done much better. At
the same time the dampness is kept
out of the horse barn.

Soak three cupfuls of kidney beans
over night; in the morning parboil
with four large onions. Put into the
bean pot with pint of stewed toma-
toes, third of a teasponful of pepper,
tablespoonful each Of sugar and salt
and a half pound Of salt pork. Bury
the beans in the pork and add lust
enough water to cover the beans. Bake
about five hours in moderate oven,
IL the onions are not liked. they NAV
be omitted and a teaspoonful Of mus
tard added to the sugar and salt to
season. For those who do not care
for the salt pork use cupful or less
of olive oil, baking them as above.
Club SaIad.-Take one and half
.cupfuls Of chicken (cold roasted), IL
slices of cooked bacon, three tomatoes
and lettuce. Arrange the lettuce on
individual plates, place on this slice
of peeled tomato, then a little of the
diced bacon, and a spoonful of mayon-
naise dressing; top with some Of the
chicken, more mayonnaise and a sprig
Of parsley. Around each, spoke-fash-
ion, place four or six tiny toast points
for a garnish.
Oatmeal Bread.--Pour pint Of boil
Ing water over a cupful of rolled oats
and set aside until the mixture is luke
warm; add half cupful of molasses,
half yeast cake, dissolved In a little
tukewarm water, and cupful and a
half of bread flour. When this is light,
add teaspoonful of salt and enough
-four to make dough stiff enough to
handle. Let it rise until double it's
bulk, cut down and turn into creased
tins. Let rise again and bake three
quarters of an hour. This makes two
loaves.
Another Thousand Island Dressing.
Take cupful Of thick mayonnaise,
six tablespoonfuls Of chilli sauce, two
chopped red peppers, half tablespoon
full of chopped chives. Use on pea and
waxbean salad.
Oyster Curry.-Cut two small onions
and stew in an ounce Of butter add
three teaspoonfuls of curry powder,
then add oysters fresh from the shell
with their own juice, stir over the fire
for two minutes or until the oysters
are curled and covered with sauce.

Washington, July 11.-SmaN men

the revised opinion of the war de-
partment, which has instructed re-
cruiting stations to open the ranks OF

The order was issued ON the basis
of a recommendation made by Sur
