What the Rabbit Costs Australia.

The state of South Australia has,
since 1891, erected 29,148 miles of
''vermin fences, enough to encircle
the globe and with the remnant build
a double line of fence along the south
ern border of the United States. When
contracts now running are completed
the mileage will be much increased.
New South Wales has expended over
$27 900 900 for rabbit determination
and has within its borders $4,000 miles
of fence. One of West Australia s
fences extends entirely across the con
tinent.
Of late years the rabbit has been re-
paying in part for his keep-paying
board, as it were. He goes to swell

commonwealth. Along the country
roads rabbits may be seen hung on the

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the substi.

These pleasant little tablets do the good
that ealomel does, but have no bad after
effects. They don't injure the teeth like
strong liquids or calomel. They take hold

Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the

Use Pop Corn-Three Ways.

There is one good American food of
which we have an abundance and we
can use as much of it as we like
corn. Use all kinds and in many ways.
Pop corn Is one of the kinds everyone
likes. 1t is a good food just simply
popped, and can also be made into such
a wholesome, inexpensive sweet that it
should be widely used. Here IS the
way to pop it and several WAYS to
use it.
Shell the corn if it is on the cob and
pop the dried corn in a covered iron
frying pan or regular pepper, shak-
ing vigorously. If wire pepper is
used, do not pop the corn directly over
the flame or it will scorch. Shake it
quite high over the flames, or better
over Goals or on the top of the stove.
Take just enough corn to cover the
bottom of the popper. A cup of pop
corn makes about three quarts when
popped.
Pop corn IS good, of course, seasoned
with salt A common way of serving
| il to mix with a very little melted but
| ter and then sprinkle with salt But
| have you ever tried it as a breakfast
food eaten with milk or cream? 1t
| makes good cereal.
| To make a sweet of pop corn boil
together one cup of corn syrup and one
| tablespoon of vinegar until a few drops
harden in water and pour it over the
freshly popped corn while it is hot As
| loon as it is cool enough to handle
grease the hands and form into balls
This amount of syrup covers 3 quarts
of pop corn.
Chocolate pop corn is delicious. Coo
one cup of corn syrup for five minutes
| Add two ounces of chocolate (twC
s4uares), and stir until melted. Cool
slowly until a soft ball is formed ii
water. Beat until thick. Have tht
popped corn in a creased dish. Pou,
the syrup over it and form into BALI

Farmers Bulletin 553 tells how t,
! grow pop corn. Why not have few
rows of pop corn in your garden mex
spring?

Knocking.

Put the hammer in the locker:
Hide the sounding board likewise;
Anyone can be knocker;
Anyone can criticise.
Cultivate all manner winning,
Though it hurts your face to smile,
And seems awkward in the beginning
Be booster for while.
Let the blacksmith do the pounding:
That S the way he draws his pay;
You don t get cent for bounding
Saint and sinner night and day.
Just for solid satisfaction
Drop kind word in the slot.
And / IL warrant you IL get action
On your effort on the spot
Kindness every time beats knocking,
Mirth is better than frown,
Don t waste your time picking
Flaws with brothers who are down.
And it isn't so distressing
If you give a little boost.
To the man whom fates are pressing
When the chick comes home to roost
