RAT is FRIEND OF MINERS
Workers Warned Of Coming catas.
trophe When the Rodents Leave
Tunnei-Are Fed by Men.

Investigators OF mining conditions
and the peculiar dangers to'twfieh
miners are subjected recently have
taken much interest in the practice
of Western gold miners to make pets
of the, rats which, .componly, ipfest
mines. On the mother lode of Calf
fornia 1t has been found that the
miners invariably feed the rats and
take care of them, believing that the
rodents are n source of protection
against accident, says Our Dumb Ami
mails. This is due, the men say, to the
instinct of the rats, which warns them
when n tunnel is unsafe. And when
the rats leave q tunnel ii is almost i'm
possible to get the miners to work
there. This recalls the belief among
sailors. that rats will leave doomed
ship. The miners also have found that
rats are much more susceptible than
humans to the dangerous gases that
80 often cause loss of life in the mines.
Long before the miners themselves are
affected by these gases the rats. be-
come sick and show symptoms of dis
tress. SO the men, keep close watch
of the rats good health. sp.x

Public officials, veterinarians and

Cook Dried Fruit. Proper Way.

Unless dried food is prepared i'm a
palatable fashion, families will tire Of
1t and it will be wasted. This will
react unfayorably on the gardens for
next year and ON the drying campaign.
The main difference between dried
and fresh food lies in the proportion
Of water they contain. Therefore the
first step In preparation is to put back
water about equal in amount to that
lost during drying. M = ~ ~. -'
One reason why dried foods have
been unpopular is that they so often
have been sundersoaked and over
cooked. When the time of soaking Is
long, and that of cooking short, the
flavor will be more like that of fresh
food.
Shape and texture must be con-
sidered, the more solid the article tn :
longer, the time required for drying.
and hence the longer the period of
soaking required. After. washing,
such foods should be. put into three or
four times their bulk of water and
left covered In a cool place from three
to forty-eight hours, according to their
: substance. Should any. indication of
fermentation. appear, they must be
scalded at once. Otherwise leave them
until they regain their original size
or lose most. Of the wrinkles in the
surface; then the time Of cooking Will
be but little longer than that needed
by the same fruit or vegetable fresh
from the garden. 81" tf
/ The water in which fruits have
soaked should be used to cook the
food. In case Of hfgh-favored fruits,
like the apricot, more water. may be
used for cooking and that In which 1t
soaked will serve to give flavor to
tasteless apples or a gelatin dessert.

BUYING New Equipment.

Is It easy to keep clean and will 1t
lessen labor and save your time?
These are the two pertinent points
when buying new equipment.
Because an article Is widely adver-
tised does not guarantee that it will
be OF practical use to the housekeeper.
There are so-caIled labor-saving de-
vices on the market which add to the
time and labor because they are COM
plicated to operate and difficult to keep
clean. The ecvhOmy of any, utensiI or
tool is that. the housekeeper is able TO
finish task more quickly and easily
with 1t than without. Z
The department of agriculture ad-
vocates that the necessity to conserve
fuels indicates the wisdom OF buying
