Apple Worm.
The so called calyx or blossom
fall spray is the most important
singl, fruit spray of the season.

brood of the apple worms or
larvae of the cojdlng moth, but
it also prevents 10 a great extent,

broods of this insect pest, 1t is

The spray must he applied for
best results Immediately after
the blossoms or petals fall. The
trees should not be sprayed while
in full bloom, because the petals
and the reproductive organ of the
flower (stamens and pistoD fill and
almost close the calyx cup, thus
preventing the poison spray from
reaching the place where the Ma
jority of the coddling moth worms
take their first meal. At this time
the little green lobes are in such
position that it is very difficult to
coat them with the spraying solu-
ton and consequently the small
developing apples are not protected
we'll against either the insects or
apple scab.
Spraying apple trees when they
are in full bloom is also apt to pre-.
vent satisfactory set of fruit.

strong enough to burn and destroy

and also poison the honey bees
When about two Il irds OF the
petals have fallen, spraying work
may begin, as practically all the
nectar will have dried up by this
time and the bees will not be found
visiting the flowers. No injury
can, therefore. be done to the bees

If the fruit grower is careful in ap
plying the spray a few grains of ar
senic will be placed in the calyx
cup of each young fruit, and the
first meal of the appl" worm takes
will also be its last one.
This should be the most thor
ough and drenching spray of the
season. A nozzle throwing a rather
coarse driving spray will give re.
suits. The spraying equipment
employed should furnish sufficient
pressure to force the spray to all
parts of the tree without difficulty.
If thorough work is done the apple
clusters must be sprayed from
every angle in order to force the
poison into each calyx cup. Apple
trees from IL to IS years old may
require from four to six gallons of
spraying solution per tree. While
trees ranging from IS to IS years
old may need from seven to twelve
gallons to cover them thoroughly.

deep fat, put them into a frying
basket, and sink them in the boiling
fat for a,few moments.
Oysters or CLANS and cod, like
salmon and lobster, are born aflini-
ties. So, if you have a few oysters
or clans left over. mix them, some
time, coarsely chopped, with the
Goldfish cake mixture, shape and fry.
You will have new and delightful
Goldfish cake.
Or add, another. time, half tea
spoon Of anchovy paste to the mix
ture and work another wonder with
Goldfish cakes. The flavor of fish to
enhance the flavor Of fish is a rule
of fine cooking worth remembering.
But now and then a cup of minced
celery stewed soft may be mixed
with the cod and potato, and the
good rule be saved by this exception
You may even spread the cakes made
from the original recipe with maitre
d'hotel or mustard buffers.
Sometimes cook eggs hard, halve
them, mash the yolks with any sea-
soning and wrap the stuffed halves
of eggs in the fish and potato
paste; dip them in milk or egg,
crumb, and fry in deep fat
Or you may bake potatoes, scoop
out the mealy interiors, mix them,
after MASKING, with fish and egg
in the above proportions. Refill the
potato shells and reheat. This
mixture should be made a little
thinner with milk or cream, and for
it's puffy lightness the egg should
be separated and the beaten white
stirred in last.

RAPES and ounces, two of the
II most delicious varieties of the
fall fruits, are featured in the
coming weeks menus, as not only are
they fairly reasonable in price, but,
being in the very height of their sea-
son, their flavor should be very nearly
perfect.
Grapes contain a goodly percent
age of sugar and when they are served
au naturel they should be washed and
thoroughly chilled. The only exception
to this rule is when they are picked fresh
from the vines and eaten still warm
for the flavor of the "sun-kisscd grape"
never can be excelled.
Ounces have to be cooked before
they are palatable and they are best
prepared in this way: Remove the
seeds and cover the skins and cores
with water. Cook until all the juice
is extracted and then strain of the
liquid. In this cook the pared and
quartered fruit with sugar to taste, the
latter added when the fruit is nearly
tender. Long cooking gives a rich, red
tint to the fruit that is very attractive
A very delectable fruit salad can be
made from combination Of cooked
ounces and grapes, and the recipe that
is given will be found a decided novelty

hand with a special thumb rest.
which is restful and gives balance
and force IN guiding the iron. espe-
cially in heavy work. The sharp
point does good work among the
gathers or pleats. There is no
standard for this iron, which has an
unusual ventilated stand attached
at the back. On this and on the
plug the iron rests when not in ac-
ton, and so does not scorch the
ironing board.
The plug does not get hot is
easily disconnected and has a Shout
der that affords a good grip.
All in all, one would have diff
Guilty in finding better iron than
this. 1t can be guaranteed to pro-
vide a cooler kitchen, smooth
clothes and comparatively con-
tented cook.
And all this for cents an hour
II the local rate for electricity is
10 cents per kilowatt hour. In New
York, with its 7-cent rate, the actual
operating expense per hour of con-
tlnuous operation would be about
4.2 cents.
At any rate, it makes heaven of
the kitchen on ironing day, in com
parlson with the olden times, when
the coal range or the gas stove
burned merrily all day long to
keep the irons hot, and several
miles were walked between the
ironing board and the source of
heat. Some day some adventurous
spirit is going to insist that we
shall sit down to iron. All it needs
is one of the combination stools and
step-ladders that solve so MANY
other household problems with less
reaching and stretching" or high
chair with proper footstool and
back
You may think that it is notion
but those who have tried it say
that it is the only way. And iron
ing done in an easy chair with an
electric iron would certainly make
queen on throne look very I'M
comfortable-perhaps mild praise at
that, in these days.

+ IS so easy to make Goldfish
cakes of sort to be encored
that it seems extra trouble
must be taken to make the soggy,
nondescript cakes found on too
many tables. And it is pity to
have such a toothsome breakfast,
or even dinner, dish under the fam
ily's prescription when breakfast
ham and bacon and eggs have
scared to such aristocratic prices.
The old, unvarying recipe is so
simple, and there are many varia-
tions-a cup of soaked and shredded
fish, two cups of mashed potatoes,
but, as you have pride in your cod
fish cakes, let the potato be cooked
for the cake, and hot, one egg,
black pepper and dash of cayenne.
A spoonful of cream or melted but

is the perfect mixture.

it may be cooked in shapely cakes
or balls, sauted to golden brown
crust enveloping a soft and creamy
deliciousness within. If fiat, round
cakes are the chosen design, have
them precisely that, flat and round.
These may be sauted in a very
little fat. or they may be brushed

y HE temperature of the laun-
dress should be kept as low


as possible to prevent blow
outs and blow-ups. The best way to
do this is to provide her with a
washing machine and an electric
iron. The iron shown in the picture
has number of special virtues,
besides those to be expected of the
genus in general.
Under test it heated to $50 de-
grees f. in 1915 minutes and to 500
degrees in 1877 minutes. With the
current turned off it cooled to $50
degrees in SO minutes, indicating
very good heat retention properties.
1t reheated to 500 degrees again in
Z minutes and 10 seconds.
Three hundred and fifty degrees
is a good temperature for iron
ing garments Of medium weight
and dampness, $50 degrees being a
minimum working temperature.
With very wet, heavy cloth, such as
would be encountered in pressing a
suit, for instance, temperature of
500 degrees would be needed and
the current should be kept on. But
III the course of the days work the
current can be turned off part of
the time and save heat and cut the
bill for electricity.
In practical tests made in the
laboratory, thoroughly sprinkled,
linen dishtowels. uniformly damp,
were ironed for minutes efficiently
with the current off after heating
the iron to 500 degrees The iron
was still at 300 degrees and was
used on thin, rather dry materials
for 3 minutes longer.
10 get the best results, however,
the iron should be used with the
current on for 5. 10 or Is minutes,
when it can be turned off and used
on the stored-up heat for from 10
to 30 minutes, according to the
weight and wetness Of the clothes
being ironed. 1t is usually said that
a good iron can be used with the
heat off for from one-third to one
half of the time, and the tests made
indicated just about this proportion.
The most practical test made was
as follows: An iron was heated to

Putting Up Ounces

Ounces probably take the longest
time to cook of any Of the fruits,
hut as when cooked in syrup for a
considerable length of time they
take on a rich crimson color, they
give very beautiful preserve that
tastes as good as it looks. The
skins from ounces may be com
hlned with the fruit in jelly making
but the seeds and cores must not
be used, as they give out gummy
substance that frequently prevents
the sugar and Juice mixture from
jellying.
