any tender green vegetable in large
amount of water and then throwing
away the water is most reprehensible
at any time and especially now when
every scrap of food should be con-
served.
The liquid in which the vegetables are
cooked is rich In soluble matters that
are valuable in the body and should
never be thrown away but served
with the vegetable as sauce or add
ed to soup stock.
In cooking any of the succulent
green vegetables, salt should not be
added until they are ready to be sea-
sOned. If peas are inclined to lack
sweetness teaSpOonful of sugar to a
pint of peas will aid wonderfully in
the favor of the finished dish. Cook
all vegetables In boiling water and
peas In an open kettle as they keep
their green color better.
For variety one may enjoy some
Of the following ways of preparing
peas:
Peas With sraised carrots.-Put
four tablespOonfuls of butter into a
saucepan with two cupfuls of fresh
ly shelled peas, bunch of mint, one
peeled onion, half cupful of cream,
we'll washed crisp head of lettuce,
finely shredded, and teaspOonfuI. Of
sugar; cover and cook for twenty min
utes, shaking the pan occasionally
while the contents are cooking. When
the peas are cooked remove the Onfon
and mint from the pan, add three egg
yolks that have been beaten with two
tablespoonfuls Of cream, q pinch of
salt and red pepper, shake until the
contents are well mixed, then dish up
the peas. Cook the carrots shredded
in strings in very little water, add
three tablespOOnfuls of butter to the
tender drained carrots and dust with
paprika and fry until a golden brown,
then add cdpful of stock or the
liquor in which the carrots were
cooked; simmer one hour. Serve with
the peas.
Green Peas With Mlnt.-Shell two
cupfuls of peas and cook in as little
water as possible without scorching,
then let it boil away and season with
three tabiespoonfuls of butter, one ta-
biespoonful of chopped mint, and a ta-
blespoonful of chopped parsley with
the Juice of half lemon, stir until well
seasoned and hot and serve at once.

Rich Booty Awaits searehers.

Syria and other Eastern countries

Among the buried treasure cited are
five shiploads Of booty carried from
Italy to Carthage in Northern Africa
in 465. by Genseric; plunder valued
at billions taken from Rome by Alaric
in 408 and by Attila, In 452. as well as

A pound of potatoes yields hardly

This is partly because they are much
more watery and partly because a

OF boiled water; add cupful of sugar
and the juice of half q lemon to the
gelatin while 1t is hot, and then add
the stifiy beaten whites of two eggs
as 1t begins to stiffen. Arrange al
ternate layers of firm, ripe berries and
the gelatin in layers, serve in large
or in individual dishes. Plain sweet
cream may be served with this, but
1t is not necessary. Strawberries with
French dressing on lettuce make most
tasty salad to serve at luncheon.
Florida FaVorite.-Make lemon

and pour over layer of the gelatin
and allow it to stiffen. The remain
der of the gelatin is kept in n warm
place. Fill the mold with ripe ber-
ries and pour over the reiAalnder Of
the gelatin. When cold and firm the
loaf is turned from the mold and
served plain or with few whole ripe
berries.
Marble Mousse.-Whip Il pint Of
cream sweetened and flavor to taste.
Before putting it into the mold melt
two tablespoonfuls of cocoa or choco-
late with the same amount Of sugar.
Put n few tablespoonfuls of the
whipped cream into the bottom of the
mold, then add little dab of choco-
late, alternating with the plain cream
until all is used. Pack and freeze as
usual. When the mousse is cut it will
have the marble effect. Strawberry

those who prefer those flavors.

Seed For 1918.
By V. P. Fawcett. State Seed
Analyst.

Now is the time to select seed
for the 1918 seeding. To many,
such word Of advice may seem
hurried, but for the sake of quality
and the prevention OF a reoccur-
renee OF seed shortage such as
experienced this year, it is timely.
The prevailing and prospective
prices for grain and grass seed are
high, and will therefore encourage
ready sale as soon as threshed.
The yields for the United States
are much less than estimated. The
demand for grain has increased
until il exceeds even the estimate.
Tie grain crops on many dry
farms are a total failure. We
must make allowances for another
severe and adverse winter. The
need for the best possible seed
grain obtainable is apparent.
Those fields OF grain that are freest
from mixtures and smut, with good
yields of good quality grain should
be saved in total for seed instead
of being milled. This field sclecs
tion and reservation would mean
much for grain improvement and
insure Idaho proper seed stock
for spring sowing.
The grass seed situation paral-
lels that of the grain. A large
acreage of alfalfa and clover was
killed by adverse winter conditions.
Again, the prevailing high prices
for hay caused by the shortage, and
the necessity of including legume
crops in rotation, will mean that
much alfalfa and clover seed must
be sown in 1918.
