Whats in name? Much, sometimes. For instance, hash. Hash has become one of the seven original jokes But hash, if well made and well seasoned, is a culinary delicacyI No matter how goc> i. is, however, it grows tiresome if served too much
 So the canny meat-saving cook serves her hash in new forms. labeled with new names, and the finicky in her family eat it with relish.
 Sometimes the meat has been cooked, but oftentimes it is tough portions of steak or other cuts which have been cut off before cooking. Chopping makes it tender and also allows it to be cooked quickly and economically.
 The following recipes are recommended by the home economies kitchen of the department of agriculture
 Mock Rabbit One-half pound beef and one pound sausage, or one pound beef one-half pound sausage meat, one-quarter pound salt pork, three slices of bread moistened with water, one egg, one onion, pepper and, salt.
 Chop the meat. Chop the onion and cook it. but do not brown it, in the fat fried out of small portion of pork. Add the bread and cook a few minutes. when cool mix all the ingredients and form into long round roll The surface can easily be made smooth if the hand is wet with cold water. Lay the remain ing pork, cut in thin slices, on top and bake 40 minutes in hot oven. The sausage may be omitted, if desired, and other seasoning used

PREPARE TO FILL THE SILO

only about 10 to IS per cent less nutritive value. However, on very rich bottom land sorghum does not have so much Sd- vantage, and corn may well be used.
 Land that will produce 30 bushels of corn per acre may be expected to yield to 10 tons of corn silage. IA that rate it would require 10 to F acres to fill a 10-ton silo. Corn for silage should be planted a little thicker than for grain production.
 The larger and later varieties of sor- ghum, such as Texas Seeded Ribbon Cane or Japanese sorghum are best far silage. Ordinary land fertilized fa,r,y we'll will usually produce s to 10 tons of silage, or as much as rich land planted to scorn
 It is important to have enough silage crops ready at one time so that the silo may be filled quickly to avoid loss from souring Corn and sorghum may be mixed for this purpose, but the plantifigs should be so timed as to allow both to be ready at once. It usually requires about 100 days for the late sorghum to be ready to cut, and about 125 days for oorr

Some Household Hints

Lemon juice added to pastry makes IL crisp and light as we'll as more di- gestible.
 Before baking potatoes let them stand ir hot water a few minutes, rub thor oughly with lard or drippings and they will cook more quickly, and the sKihs remove without waste.
 Scatter salt on carpet when sweeping This will act as cleanser and will pre- vent the rise of dusts which carry the deadly microbe.
 Mildew may be easily removed from leather articles if rubbed with vaseline' and allowed to stand few days, then wiped off.
 JavelIe water or potassium perman- eante is about the only bleach for EA'- dewed clothing. and remember the longer mjldew remains in a garment the harder 1t is to- get out.

By D. J. BURLEsON AGricdIturist Alabama Extension

The silo is the best winter pasture we can have That is the opinion of dairy men and beef cattle feeders who have had experience with silos and know whereof they speak. Of course, man cannot afford to put up a silo unless he is carrying a sufficient number of cat tie. but if he feeds ten or more mature COWS he will save money by taking ad- vantage of this means of preserving cheap, succulent feed
 It does not take long, either, to build a silo or to fill one, but it does take several months to grow the feed with which to fill it. He who expects to i'll silo should now consider the production of feed to go into it. calculate the acre age required to fill it, and decide what crops to grow.

New-York tribune., 1920-03-26

New York is receiving 100000 quarts
OF milk less day than it ought to is
that there are not enough tin cans to
go around. Now, why not try beer
kegs? Everybody knows that there
are. more than 100000 empty beer
kegs lying idle in New York, and every
body knows that those kegs will never
be filled with beer again."
Milk experts laughed. Then the
question was put up to Health Commits
sioner Copeland. He also laughed.
Not Without Friend
But the beer kegs were not without
friends. Word having got to the ears
of retired brewers, friendly word
was spoken for them. All that is needed
to make this country nation of milk
tipplers, it was asserted, is to put sani-
tary Innings in the beer kegs fill the
kegs with milk, and there you are.
"Why not?" asked Jacob Rupert.
"Why should we let all the beer kegs
go to ruin? The scheme seems practi
cable. A sanitary milk can lining
might be put into the kegs, one end Of
tops provided. A beer keg holds l28
quarts, as against the forty-quart ca
pacity Of an ordinary milk can. This
would mean that three times as much
milk could be shipped in one keg as is
now shipped in one can"
Peter Doelger advised that a chemist
be brought into consultation. He was
not so sure about the sanitary lining.
"Beer kegs" said MI. Doelger,
have pitch in them. The cleansing
process to which milk containers arc
subjected would melt the pitch, and
this would contaminate the milk. Mr..
Horton, of the Sheffield Farms Com
pany, was telling me on the golf links
the other day that the cleansing of
milk cans is one of the most important
features of milk distribution. 1t is
question for chemist to decide"

Sarah Farkas, a tenographer, COM
planned that Neu slashed her coat in
Maiden Lane 5 and 10 cent store last
Wednesday.
DR.. Jacob Geiger, family physician
to Neu, who lives at 80 Claremont Park
way, brought the defendant to the
Tombs court in a taxicab from the
psychopathic ward at Bellevue Hos
pital, where he had been under OBJ.
servation since last Sunday
The defendant appeared in court
disheveled, minus a collar and with
several days growth of beard. His
wife came into court with him, her arm
around his shoulder. Charles Trosk,
Neu's counsel, pleaded that since DR..
Geiger thought Neu mentally unsound
the defendant should be committed to
Bellevue for observation and not stand
trial.
Assistant District Attorney Nc

sisted he was the victim of mistake.
was Frederick K. Winter, of Westfield,
N. j., who said he overheard Neu tell
the Farkas girl:
Don't make fool of yourself.
Come down to my Office and talk it
over"
DR.. Geger said that he had been
treating Neu for more than year for
a serious nervous breakdown, and that
the patient had been under observation
for some time.
While Neu's finger prints showed NJ
record of former appearance at the

Of Headquarters, said records at, the
Bureau of Criminal Identification

$4,000 i'm Silks
Are Stolen i'm Two
Loft Burglaries
Shop in Fourth Ave. Looted
Saturday Night and An
other in 2lst Street Eli
tered OH Tuesday Night

Silks valued at more than $4,000
were stolen in two daringly executed
loft robberies brought to light yester-
day. The shops of both victims were
protected by burglar alarm systems
and the nature Of the thefts indicated
that they were carefully planned and
that the robbers >were intimately ac-
quainted with the premises.
The boldness of the robberies is par
ticularly evident in the case of the
Harold Silk Mills, on the second floor
of 400 Fourth Avenue. This place
was entered some time between Satur-
day night and Sunday morning. While
the door to the establishment and the
wiring about it remained untouched,
the burglars had ripped up the boards
in front and back of it and in some
acrobatic fashion removed the bolts
OF silk through the apertures. I. Kauf-
man, head of the firm, declares that
haul away the stuff, which he valued
at upward Of $25 1000.
Steel Screen Sawed Away
The other victim was Jacob Davis, a
braid dealer on the seventh floor of
IL West Twenty-first Street. The rob-
bers removed $4,000 worth of mer-
chandise on Tuesday night last by
climbing fire escape, smashing a win
dow and saving away steel screen
that barred their way. Mr.. Davis de-
clared that the robbery undoubtedly
was the work of somebody possessing
a knowledge of his premises. Both
firms were insured.
Sergeant James Cone, of the Bath
| Beach police station, looked out of his
bedroom window early yesterday morn
ing and ss.w a man pacing to and fro
with an air of watchful waiting at
Seventy-ffsth Street and Fifth Avenue,
brooklyn. He evidently was not watch
ing, for policemen for Sergeant Cone
took him by surprise.

him at the Fourth Avenue police sta
