/ Caught Young Hawks.

While out I'm the huckIeberry marsh
Monday Mrs. Clyde Allchin came
across hawks nest containing three
young hawks and an unmatched egg.
They took the young birds home and
set trap and soon caught one of the
parent hawks. The other hawk soar
ed around the place but evidently was
too wise to go near the nest and they
were unable to get it in the trap. 1t
5 not a very common occurrence to
find a nest CT this species of bird and
still more uncommon to find three of
the young birds in the nest.

A GOOD LETTER FROM BLANCHE

Dear Social Corner Writers: Of the different cereals that are used for sub stitutes I prefer the rolled oats as it makes the lightest bread, using the old rule of one cup for loaf, scalded is best, but good anyway.
 Baked brown bread is made from the other cereals and much improved if slices are steamer just before serv- ing. %sl1

CLOSE CALCULATING.

S'Use potato peelings for kindlings. That's one of the suggestions made for the elimination of waste
 Those words, when l read them re- gently, recalled the old adage, One half the world does not know how the other half Hves,' also they raised the question whether there may not still be some who have not quite mastered the alphabet of economy
 The following suggeStions-ofered by me-seem worthy of thought:
 Many housewives feel that they can- not afford to pare potatoes before boil ing, so much adheres to the pairing that can be eaten if the tubers are cooked in their jackets.
 Perhaps you who do pare them may know of one among your neighbors who in response to the various news paper appeals, though having little to l do with, is trying to raise pig; or, it may be, to keep a half dozen hens Help him by saving all your kitchen refuse for him and see that he gets it. He will not ask for it, but neither will | he decline it if you offer it kindly, simply saying that just now, in these hard times, you dislike to throw away anything that can be turned to a good purpose, and that if he has creatures to eat what waste you have from your l kitchen he will be more than welcome
 to it. Hens will eat potato parings if
 cooked, while a pig will eat them either raw or cooked.
 The use of apple cores for jelly has been advocated also and the substitu tion of the tops of beets and radishes
 for spinach.
 Yes, apple cores make most excellent jelly-but pigs and hens will eat them
 Voraciously and turn the same into
 juicy meat and eggs, while as for the
 needy-most of them became accus-
 toned. long ago, to getting along with
 out jelly. Also they have learned tc substitute dandeions, etc, for 40-cent
 spinach when not too far away tc gather from a country roadside. The proposition was made to a cer tain club that-as an important aid il the campaign for national economy : they should limit their public dinners to $1 a plate." This in the name o economy!
 Why should not all, clubs ''cut out their public dinners entirely and giv
 the money thus saved to those organ } izations that are earnestly striving t l find out how they may best and mos l wisely aid the very poor? = PTTT-H r

HOW IT LOOKS TO JoE's
 BROTHER.


 Dear Social Corner Editor: I must say that Jerusha's letter pleased me Just because she had the courage of her vices. She didn't seem to think It was necessary for her to keep quiet about it any more than if she was a minister of the gospel, a principal of boys school, the teacher of a Bible class. the judge of court, the head of the Y. M. c. A. or an undertaken,
 Every boy before he is 12 years old has been observing enough to know that you've got to smoke to be a man" And most of them get there This crowning habit of manhood never could acquire; but would it be any less respectables if it were also the crowning act of womanhood?
 Priscilla was right when she point ed out the striking contrast between Jerusha's letter and Aunt Mary's. It was strikingly noticeable.
 Sincerity of heart and singleness of purpose always mark Aunt Mory's let ters and no doubt Jerusha was well impressed by Aunt Mary's Christian thoughts. There is nothing in smoking to interfere with Christian duty and devotion for if there was what would become of our churches? l I should prefer wife who smoked to one who took snuff or chewed to- bacco;. and I should rather eat food prepared by a servant girl who smoked. than after one who chewed | tobacco and used her sink for cus- pidore. Many things happen in so. ciety common people seldom heal about.
 If Jerusha has no habit worse thar smoking she must be tolerably goot companion.
 It lsn't the habit that shocks us S, but our own minds. for if it was tn, habit it would shock us no matte who smoked
 Jerusha is frank and apparentl, honest and seems worthy of being vel lcomed.

THINGS GOOD TO EAT.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: A jar of old fashioned cruners would be nice to make on some rainy afternoon when you are not extra busy and will serve as standby on your emergency shelf in case of unexpected company.
 Old Fashioned CruIlers: One pint of sour cream, one pint buttermilk one cup butter, three cups sugar, four large eggs, one helping teaspoon each of salt and nutmeg, white flour enough to make a dough sufficiently firm so the crullers will retain their shape while cooking. When they fatten out when in the fat, it is an indication not enough flour has been kneaded in. the consequence is they absorb fat, re. sulting in a soggy indigestibleness | When correctly made and this can be determined by testing a little of the i dough, these crullers are delicious, and i have smooth, fine, creamy interior, | unlike bakery Crullers that dry out in a | few days and are quite tasteless, while thees improve with age when kept in a stone jar. Rolling each one in confectioners sugar while hot is an improvement.
 | Cookies without eggs or butter: One cup sour cream, one level teaspoon ot soda, pinch of salt, one cup sugar flavoring, flour enough to roll.
 Hard Gingerbread: One-fourth cup
 of sugar, one-half cup of molasses ] one-half cup of butter, one-fourth cur I of sour milk. teaspoon soda, cassis l and ginger, pinch ginger; mix verH stiff and roll out the size of the balzins
 pan. When cooked cut to the size de,

 Steamed Brown Bread: One cup O I wheat flour, one of graham flour, an(
 one of corn meal, one cup each O
 sweet milk and sour milk, one-half cul
 each of sugar and molasses, one ege 1 one tablespoon of shortening and on,
 teaspoon each of salt and soda. Stean
 about two hours. Then put in ovel
 and bake for one-half hour. This i
 delicious when warm, and very goo
 cold the next day. It is also sliced Il fried and eaten with maple syrup.

THE GATHERING OF WILD FLOW.
 FRS.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: At this season when wild flowers have been so abundant and others will be bloom ing through the summer and fall let us take due thought for those who may pass the same way and not greedily pick every blossom in sight, especially the rare flowers, or those which are abundant only in certain localities.
 This thought was very forcibly i'm pressed upon my mind recently, first by reading of how the beautiful ar- butts has become extinct in many places where it was once abundant by the thoughtlessness of those who in |gathering the blossoms have torn up the tender roots.
 A few hours after reading the ar |ticle, I was riding on a trolley and when it stopped on siding to wait for another car a large, brusque looking man noticed some mountain pinks
