Farmer Browns Boy
Spreads a Feast.
To win friend It's clear 10 sec
You must Yourself right friendly

When Jimmy Skunk and Mrs. Jimmy
Farmer Browns boy and then went on
about their business he continued to
stand perfectly still until they had
disappeared over the old stone wall
on their way to the Green Meadows.
He just ached to follow them, but he
was too wise to do anything of the
sort. He had already made the first
step toward friendship with that
funny family, and he knew little peo-
pie well enough to know that that
was enough for that night. To follow
them would be to make them sus-
picious.
Instead Farmer Browns boy decided
to look for their home. He knew that
it must be near. for those seven little
black and white babies were too small
to have come far. Besides. 1t was just
dusk, and they would not have started
out before then, Must be up here in
the Old Orchard. muttered Farmer
Browns boy. Il wonder where it can
be. l don't know of any hole up here
except Johnny Chuck's old house where
he and Polly Chuck lived last year.
Then he remembered that he had
found Johnny and Polly Chuck in
! cornfield. That's it, he exclaimed:
of course. The Chucks have moved
and the Skunks have taken possession
of their old house. That's it,
He went straight over to the far
corner and bent over the little mound
of sand that made the doorstep to
Johnny Chuck's old house between
the roots of an old apple tree. There
was still light enough for him to see
tiny footprints in the sand. I'm
right" he chuckled. This is their
home. I'm glad ii is so near. can slip
over here often and get acquainted.
think Jimmy Skunk trusts me. but
I'm not so sure of Mrs. Jimmy. Blu;
I'll soon fix her. Yes. sir. Ill soon fN
her"
Now when he said that he didn't
mean anything unpleasant at all. The
truth is he meant something quite the
contrary Just a little before dusk
the next day he was back at that
home in the far corner of the Old
Orchard. With him he brought some
scraps of food from the table. and
these he scattered just beyond the
doorstep. Then he sat down to wait
patiently. Farmer Browns boy can
be very. very patient. He has learned
that this is the only way to get really
acquainted with the little people of
the Green Forest and the Green
Meadows.
BY and by the first OF the Black
Shadows came creeping across the
Green Meadows. Then Melody the
Wood Thrush began his evening song
of peace and good will and happiness.
Shortly after he heard queer sounds

There are some vegetables that
are easily spoiled in the cooking by
the innocent addition of salt at the
wrong time. For instance, IL fresh
corn Is cooked in what is known as
boiling salted water the kernels are
made tough. If the salt is added when
the corn is half done the flavor .s
just as good and the vegetable is not
toughened.
This rule applies to the roto vege-
tables coming in seaso now. Turnips
can be sailed and peppered when
