Spiced vinegar is used In making
pickles, for fiavoring gravies, potato
salad and similar dishes. For picking
It is especially valuable. as the flavor
from spiced vinegar is the same all
through the pickles, while IL pepper.
cloves and dill are added directly to
the pickles the flavor is more concen-

are put. The herbs from which the
spiced vinegar is made may be used as
a garnish by mixing them In the pickle.
An excellent spiced vinegar is made
by filling wide-mouthed bottle or a
fruit jar to within two inches of the
top with splced plants of different
Kinds, such as slices of horse radish
and onions, umbels Of dill, ripe seed
or white mustard and celery, green
seed of nasturtiums, fine stems and
leaves Of tarragcn, basil and sweet

PLENTY OF MILK is
BEST FOR CHILDREN
viii Counterfeit Host of Errors
In Their Raising.
Many Milk Stations Have Been Es-
tabllshed In Poorer Sections of
Various cItles-servIce APP

ment Of Agriculture)
Plenty Of milk for a child will coun-
teract a host of other errors In his
raising. Many little Tony or Marie
In this country has parents who be-
lieve baths, even Saturday night ones,
are superfiuous to their offspring.
Fried peppers, coffee and other indi-
gestlbles are often given these young
sters before they have teeth. But In
spite Of dirt and unsuitable food, If
they are given plenty of clean sweet
milk most of them will live and thrive,
authorities now agree.
That all children may have this nee.
essary food milk stations have been
established In the poorer sections of
many cities. In these stations clean
milk may be had at lower price than
the milkman can deliver IL to the
home. The increased amount sold at
these stations is good proof that their
services are appreciated by the peo-
pie living near them.
In Hartford (Conn) milk station,
when 1t was first established, one year
ago, 30 quarts day was the average
sale. This year the average daily
amount bought over its counters is 235
quarts. This station is in an Italian
section where a health survey last |
year showed 20 per cent of the chill
dren In fair health. 10 per cent at q |
standstill, and 70 per cent undernour-
ished. A survey this year showed 10 |
per cent of these children In fair
health, 10 per cent at a standstill, and
20 per cent undernourished. The Hart
ford health authorities credit the
marked Improvement to the milk sta
ton there.
1t provides plenty of milk at a rea-
sonable price and also educates the
people to its value as food for chill
dren. Some educational work Is done
by means Of posters. Lectures and
demonstrations on use Of milk are also
given by the home demonstration
agent supervised by the United States
department Of agriculture and the
state college.

Fowl lice and mites reduce egg pro
duction, hinder the growth and reduce
the quality of flesh of all classes of
poultry. Mites are particularly bad
among farm fowl, as these blood-suck-
Ing insects often gain firm foothold
In the flock before the farmer is aware
OF their presence. The hens become
irritable and decline in egg production
and healthy condition as a result of
losing blood to the mites. In heavily
infested coops 1t is not unusual for
the chickens to become droopy and
weak, with pale combs and wattles.
The mites feed almost entirely at
night, except that they attack hens on
the nests during the daytime. They
secrete themselves in cracks and
crevices around the chicken house dur
ing the day, and hence their presence
often Is overlooked until heavy infes-
tation has developed.
Rout Mites From Roosts.
In controlling mites it is first of all
essential to drive the pests from the
roosts, nests and interior of the poul-
try house, which should be sprayed
