THE CHURCH AND SOCIALISM. BY
: John A. Ryan. Washington: The
. University Press.
A volume of reprints OF articles
that have appeared i'm various publi-
cations over the past ten years. SIX
of them deal with industrial prob
lens, and the other four with social
questions that have important indus
trial aspects.
The first two articles, the Church
and Socialism and Principles and Pro-
posals of Social Reform, are of es-
pecial interest at this time, when the
attention of the world is centered on
the attempts of Lenine to work out an
application of radical theories in
Russia.

concerned with the problems of the

Hints For The
Household

To clean blackened or scorched
baking dishes, a good method Is to
rub them hard with damp salt. But
if a little ash and water are placed
in them, and IL they are allowed to
heat slowly at the back of the CRATE
they may be quickly secured back
to their original cleanness. Any
brown discoloration on cups and
saucers can be got rid OF quickly
by rubbing them with a flannel
dipped in whiting.
Lint on the pen is instantly cured
If you hold ii for moment in the
flame of match. The fire test Is
also applicable to a new steel pen
point you want to put into commits
sion. Burning it probably short
ems its life, but il saves time you
would otherwise spend sitting round
thoughtfully sucking the point, and
the burning roughens the surface
so that the ink holds at once.
After washing black and white
articles add teaspoonful of blue
black ink to the rinsing water. This
will prevent the black from ASSUME
ing that brown tinge so often seen
i'm black and white goods after a
visit to the washtub.
If is impossible to fasten either
nail or screw into some walls for
the hanging up ola picture. A good
plan is to bore a hole and fill 1t
with plaster OF paris, and when
quite wet insert the nail or screw
to harden in its place.
A good method of keeping car
pets clean and in good condition is
to sweep them once a week with u
broom dipped in a solution of hot
water and turpentine. This not
only reviyes the color wonderfully
but prevents moths harbocing.
To prevent milk boiling over
place pie funnel in the center of
the pan. The boiling milk will then
rise in the funnel instead of over
the pan and none will be wasted.
Never brush a splashcd coat or
skirt until the splashes are per-
fectly dry.

BE CAREFUL ABOUT SEEDS

S. S. Smith, county agricultural
agent, requests us to warn our read
ers to take pains to test all Of the
seed they are planting-corn, oats,
barley, and also to be very careful
about potatoes, as the weather as well
as the previous summer, had a very
serious effect on the termination of
the seed. In many cases, he says,
it has been found, that as high as
SO per cent of the oats and barley do
not grow.

II, instead of splashing around
trying to find the fountain of eternal
youth, old Ponce de Leon had gone
out into a sugar bush and watched
'em "bile down" he would have done
something that would have made him
feel young, which is by far the best
part of being young. Anyway, it
made the write feel like boy again
when he visited E. L. Powers sugar
camp, the other day. The sap tasted
sweet and woodsy, same as it used
to, and the fire cracked merrily under
the big pan, the steam from which
spread mighty enticing aroma all
around. And the syrup was the real
old quill. And the woods, why they
are beautiful at all seasons Of the
year, and if we owned that sap bush
of the Colonel's it would never be
farm, but always a sap bush. Some
of you may not believe it readily, but
the editor used to be chopper, and so,
while he was out in the bush, he
swung the axe bit and cut
up some fire wood. Capt. Angus
Mckay was present, and knowing
something Of his skill as an axman,
the scribe felt highly gratified at the
complimentary way in which he spoke
Of our work, and laid into the wood
pile with increased vigor, but since
then we've been wondering if the
captain really meant it, or if he was
just "kiddin'" us in the interest of
more fire wood.

DRIED FRUITS AND THEIR USES
BY Miss Mary Strunk

Prunes, apricots, peaches, apples,
dates, raisins, currants and figs are
our common field fruits. When
fresh, they contain from 500 TO 900
water. This is reduced in drying
to nearly 20qS. In order 70 repro =
duce the fruits, some water must
b. replaced. SO before cooking we
add warm water and let them
stand in IL for fifteen 10 twenty min
utcs.
Then wash very clean, rubbing
we'll between the hands. Cover with
cold water and LET stand over night.
Cook very slowly for two 10 six
hours in the same water in which
they soak. Add sugar IL needed,
when fruits are tender.
Prunes do not require sugar I'M
less more water than is necessary
has been used in cooking.
n on some occasion you would
like prunes 10 be unusually nice,
remove the stems carefully, and
in their places slip seeded raisins
which have also been soaked and
gently stewed.
Dried fruits in general have a
most undeserved reputation, because
thy are so seldom we'll cooked or
served attractively.
Often we feel that we cannot az
ford TO cook fruits slowly and as
long as they should be cooked, be-
cause OF the fuel expenses. A very
reasonable way Of getting by that
objection is using "flreless cook
er," and there is no good reason
why there should not be at least a
homemade flreless cooker in every
" oman's kitchen. Get Farmers Bull
