The japanese people are satisfied
with the result Of the election of April
20, but agitation regarding expense at
tending canvass for q seat In parlia-
ment Is renewed. The same argument
is heard as those after the last gen.
eral election, according to East and
West The Chugai Shogyo estimates
the cost of 900 candidates at not less
than $2,640,000! This is more than
representatives in the United States
eXpend, but senators have been known
to pay half q million for seats in that
body. The Chugai says the govern
ment spent 100000 for supervising
the election, which, to Americans, will
appear moderate. This sum includes
"stumpins trips" through the country
by cabinet ministers; members of the
opposition paid their own expenses.

Beef Tongue With Raisins.-So far
raisins are one of the good things that

though any day they may be beyond

place in a kettle with a teaspoonful

mer very gently one hour. Remove
and take off the skin, trimming the
roots carefully. Place in q casserole
with teaspoonful of butter and two
cupfuls Of water with three tablespoon
fuls Of lemon juice and any favoring
herbs. Cover and cook four hours
slowly. An hour before serving add a
cupful Of seeded raisiAs, one-half a

disinfectlng the wounds made and the
| tools used. rif-
PreVention.-Sincef fire blight usually
gains entrance into a tree through a
blossom or bud, all fruit spurs and
sucker growth should be removed from
the lower main limbs and from the
trunk to prevent those portions of the
tree becoming infested.
Since cutting is the only known
remedy for the disease, 1t is essential
that trees in district where fire blight
Is prevalent be trained to an open
head. Trees so trained can be more
readily treated with a pruning knife
than If trained with q central leader.
Immune Stock.-The most promising
developments in the efforts being made
to find some method of guarding
against fire blight is along the lines of
securing immune stock on which to
grow susceptible varieties and in the
development of immune and resistant
varieties producing desirable fruit of
their own.
1t Is now known that Japanese pear
stocks are absolutely resistant to fire
blight and that keifer is very highly
resistant. Reimer of Oregon has done
considerable experimenting with keifer
or Japanese stock. AS result it can
be definitely advised that pear growers
should plant keifer pears, and these
on the roots of the Japanese pear.
After the tree has been in the orchard
a year or two and has developed its
scaffold limbs, 1t can then be worked
over to any desired variety by budding
or grating into the scaffold limbs. This
will result in a tree with the roots,
trunk and lower main limbs immune
to the blight, a condition that greatly
facilitates the control of the disease.
1t is not desirable to grow the Japa-
nese stock as tree in the orchard and
then bud desired variety into it di
rectly, inasmuch as the japanese pear
has very erratic habit of growth.
Japanese stock is hardy, vigorous and
clean and will result in trees, when
used as stock on which to graft our
ordinary varieties, that, If anything,
will be somewhat larger than trees
on the French stock.

IMPORTANT FACTOR
IN PRODUCING FOOD
imperative Need Of Adding to
Comfort and Efficiency Of
Farm Work Animals.

That the horse is highly impor-
tant factor in the great food produc-
tion campaign now on, is the conten-
ton Of DR.. G. w. McCampbell, asso-
ciate professor Of animal husbandry IN
the Kansas State Agricultural college.
"Under normal conditions" said
Doctor McCampbell, kansas cult
Yates annually 10000 acres Of land.
There are 100000 horses and mules In
Kansas Of suitable age and condition
for farm work. With a normal acreage
one horse would be required to do the
work Of cultivatfng approximately 80
acres, which Is ordinarily considered a
good seasons work for horse.
"Any increase in the crop acreage
this year will result in an increased
demand upon the reserve energy and
power Of the farm horses, and empha-
sizes the imperative need Of observing
every possible means that may add to
the comfort and efficiency of these ami
mails"
The farm horse-mule included-will
be the main dependence in this time Of
need. No greater disaster could befall
the farmer than serious outbreak Of
fatal horse disease.
"In view of the tremendous impor-
tance Of the horse as factor in maxi
mum crop production" said Doctor
McCampbell, ut Is the duty of every
horse owner to observe most carefully
the many little details in sanitation,
feeding, watering, and working that
add to the efficiency and economy Of
farm horse labor"

KING GEORGES FINE LIBRARY
Books and Manuscripts Are Of Great
and Constantly Increasing His
torleal Value.

King George Is constantly improving
the great library at Windsor castle.
The library has grown TO its present
tremendous proportions out Of a Sc
ries OF smaller rooms added by sue.
cesslve soverelgns from time to time.
King Georges contributions and i'm
provements, even thus early in his
reign, are as notable as those of any
Of his predecessors.
The request for reglmental records
winch the librarian, Mr.. Fortescue, is
now making will enormously increase
the collections historical value.
The library is largely used by Off.
GERS on duty at the castle, so the occu-
pants Of the equerries' room, where
they are entertained, will be delighted
with the new war section. A story of
the great library is still told In the
equerries' room.
A young officer Of the guards swore
that when he was sitting in the library
phantom female figure passed him
ana disappeared into the thickness of
the walls. His statement created a
sensation in the castle. because the
library Is supposed to be haunted by
the ghost of Queen Elizabeth.
Charles IL began the collection, but
the bulk of the original library was
handed over to the British Museum
oy George w, William " then brought
together at Windsor the books that re-
NAMED in the various royal palaces.

1t is being more used for human food.
Vegetables are appetizers, for ex-
ample, the onion, garlic, chlves, pars-
ley and celery. The woody fiber being
indigestible, serves as a brush in the
alimentary canal to carry along all
waste and excite perlstaltic action.
Vegetables, because of their bulk, sat
tsfy hunger without Over-feeding. In
their service as broom to the body,
they keep the system cleansed, beau
ufying the complexion and removing
all waste that clogs the skin and pro-
duces sOllOw, muddy complexions.
The proper cooking of vegetables is
another important thing to bear in
mind. All vegetables when cooked
should be put on to cook in boiling
water. Salt may be added to those
vegetables that are not toughened by
Its use, for example, potatoes and 9TH
er fibrous root vegetables. Too long
cooking, especially of such dellcately
favored vegetables as asparagus will
dissolve the favor and send it out with
steam, SO both nourishment and flavor
will be lost. Leftover green vegeta-
bles, or in fact any kind of vegetable,
makes good cream soup. Asparagus,
string beans, tomatoes in any form,
and celery with onion all make most
delicious salads.
A garden containing all the crisp
vegetables used for salads and as
many others as the space allows will
be constant source of delight all the
summer and fall. Pumpkins and
squashes, as well as cucumbers and
melons will all climb on the back yard
fence and take up little room on the
ground. Planting beans with corn
saves space and gives the beans some
thing to climb upon.
Tender young carrots cooked in as
little water as possible so that every
bit Of the mineral matter is saved and
then served with butter salt and a
grating Of nutmeg with q dash of
lemon juice is most delicious vege-
