American Cereal Is Important Part
of System of Successful
Diversihcation

Miles City, Dec. 27.-Corn must
play an important part in diversified
ton on the dry land farms in Mon
tana, says M. L. Wilson, state leader
of county agents. Where it requires
432 pounds of soil moisture to pro-
duce a pound of wheat it requires
but 249 pounds of moisture to pro-
duce a pound of corn. Corn and
feed crops must be in every rotation.
The Importance of corr on Montana
farms is shown by an increase OF
12.4 per cent itnhe acreage since
1911.
Acreage of farms in dry land sec
tons is larger than the average man
would imagine. According to figures
taken from 127 farms, in north CEN
trail Montana by Prof. E. L. Currier
farm management department direc-
tor of the Montana experiment sta
ton, the total acreage per farm was
SIT. Of the 127 farms visited, IS
had 800 acres each. There was an
average of 259 acres of pasture per
farm.
Records kept through Al years in
the dry land sections of Montana
show that the average annual rain
fall in these sections is not increas-
Mr.. Wilson stated. We have
a series of dry years and, following
these, a few years with abundance of
moisture. Dry land sections fail to
show any regularity of occurrence of
lean or plenty years. This truth
to dry land areas generally
throughout the country.
Because of variations in climate
and soil, it is impossible to suggest
any rule that alone will bring sue
cess in dry land farming. Dry farm
ing is not a get rich quick scheme
but does offer opportunity to estab-
lish a home for the mar who is will
ling to adapt his methods to his en-
vironment. Success on the dry land
will depend upon The ability of
each farmer to obtain a sound under
standing of his local conditions"

Raisin Pie.

This is the last word in raisin pies :

raisins and o%ne-quarter of a cupful
of dried currants in one pint of april
cot juice. Add three tablespoonfuls Of
butter and two egg yolks, two table
spoonfuls of lemon juice and sugar TO
taste. Put into a shell that has oeen

MIR. MOUSE'S GOOD LUCK

TT HAD been cold and Mr.. Mouse
had almost starved, for in the house
where he made his home In the
wall there was little to eat, the family
having gone away for the winter.
At first Mr.. Mouse did not care. He
was the only mouse in the house, and
there were plenty Of crumbs and bits
of food left by the careless cook. Then
when those were gone he found shoes
and many other things that he could
eat, even though he would not have
chosen to eat them if there had beer
plenty of other things.
But at last there came a day when
there was not one thing he could eat
in that whole house. He was sure,
for he looked before he started out in
the cold world. The ground was COW

AbOits
HON'T hold your knife at table as
if you contemplated cutting youl
way through a b~arbed-wire en-.
tanglement with it. Take it no fur
Their down toward the blade than is
necessary to hold it securely. In fact
1t is q mistake to let your fingers rest
anywhere but on the handle. save that
the index finger may be placed on the
edge of the dull side.
When you have finished with a
curse In. which a knife is used place
the knife across the side of the plate
with the sharp side of the blade to-
ward the center. If you are dining
with your family and send your plaIe
to the carver for a second helping the
knife and fork should be placed in
this way, not removed and laid on the
butter plate, much less held in mid
air.
Never hold the knife In the hand
save when using it. Some persons
you know forget that they have it in
their hand and raise 1t in an awk-
ward fashion with the point of the
blade c%eilingward. We have all seen
humorous pictures of the uncouth man
who sits waiting for his plate with
his knife in his right hand and his
fork in his left, points upward. See
that you don't let yourself look as
ridiculous.

Do not use a steel knife in eating
fish. Some persons would say. never
use any knife at all with fish. but II is
quite all right 10 use a silver knife
and small silver knives are especially
designed for the fish course. In the
ordinary household where fish is
served as a substitute for the meat
course 1t is served with the usual
knife and fork, but this knife should
not be of steel.
Do not use a knife when eating des-
serts. although in some provincial
hotels the waiter will give you a knife
and fork with pie. A small knife
may be served and used with cheese.
When this is done cut off a bit of
cheese and place it by means of the
knife on the wafer with which it is
served and hen convey the wafer to
your mouth by means Of the left hand.
Never. never use your knife as an
with which to assist food
your fork or to scout about your
plate for last morsels. In fact the
should not be used at all for
potatoes or other vegetables these be-
ing broken entirely by e of the
FORK.
If no butter knives are used 1t is
quite all right to use the dinner knife
or buttering bread. Remember, how
yer, never to spread more thai a
small morsel at a time. and never wipe
IF gravy or other food on a slice of
,read by way of polishing our knife
,efore using II on the butter.

best.
Two of our Sunday school classes

spent playing games. This bids
fair to be one of the most successful
services of our church.
The Junior Church which meets
at the close of school Wednesday
