LEFT OVER CEREALS

Remnants OF cereal breakfast food
may often be utilized TO make pala-
table dishes. to thicken soups or 9TH
er foods. and in similar ways. Small
quantities of cooked cereal left over
from meal can be nodded in cups
and reheated for later use by setting
the cups In boiling water Another
way to economize cereal mushes is TO
add hot water TO any mush left over
so as TO make II very thin. II can
then easily be added TO a new supply.
The practise of frying leftovers OF
boiled hominy or of corn meal mush
Is as old as the settlement OF this
country. and the nursery song about
the bag pudding the queen did make
from King Arthur's barley meal
shows Us that for centuries other GER
cal pudding have been treated in the
same way. In oatmeal oysters. left
over cereal Is dipped In eggs and
crumbs and fried. Left over rice

used in c-oquettes and puddings.

25 to 40 por cent is not uncommon
as the direct result OF flies and the
extreme heat of summer. Under ex-
listing conditions with keen demand
for dairy productsiand with prices at
a high mark, II is highly desirable
that every dairy farmer exercise a
maximum of care and caution to elm
mate the fly evil. according TO dairy
specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. Remedies
are darkened barns, stable. santa
tion, and spraying with Fly repeilents.
Thorough treatment of manure. it's
daily removal from the barn to a
distance, the use OF hanging burlap or
other devices In the barn doors to
brush flies from the animals, baited
fly traps placed outside the barns.
aud closed milk pals are among the
necessary requirements for keeping
flies away
The stable fly armed with biting
mouth parts, punctures the hide OF
cows and sucks their blood, while the
horn fly locates at the base OF the
horns, where II irritates the skin
and causes the formation of conges-
tions which resemble mosquito bites.
Both species of these flies propagate
rapidly and require only from 10 to
16 days In which to hatch their eggs |
and produce new hordes OF pests |
which operate for COW discomfort.
The stabling of cows during the
heat OF the day In cool, darkened |
barns Is recommended as one of the |
best means OF eliminating the fly |
evil. provided adequate labor Is avail
able to keep the stables clean aud
sanitary. AS manure provides an
ideal breeding material for flies, II
is imperative that none of Il be al
lowed to accumulate In or around the
stable. Spraying the animals with
some fly repellent, such as kerosene
emulsion il an effective remedy, but
requires repeated applications. Re
pellents should be used with great
care, as no good one has yet been de-
vised which Is not likely TO slightly
taint the milk. II is best to spray the
cows just before milking each even

plying Il with brush or sponge
There are some antifly solutions on
the market which are more or leas
effective. Most OF them consist OF
some coal-tar product combined With

manure Is also useful in destroying
