At Home Again

Was absent from home a little less
| than two weeks, and am back again,
| feeling a great deal better for the
trip, as I had been threatened with
the ''flu" and went away still cough
ing and sneezing occasionally.
1t is a journey that anyone can
itake with satisfaction-with Pullman
berths, etc.-but, nevertheless, it
was somewhat risky for an old lady
who will reach her eighty-seventh
mile post early in June.
! My doctor said, "old people are
apt to get sick and they cannot
dodge automobiles and street cars
as younger ones do, and you know
you are not as young as you used
to be-"
Then interrupted to say, "The
dear Lord can take care Of me. He
has brought me safely during a long
life's journey, and with due respect
to your advice and caution, I am
going to try it," -
And here am, at my accustomed
seat in my writing room, writing to
my dear Country Home friends, and
I feel sure they will be glad for me
that I did go to Washington city
alone; did stay there until I got
tired and enjoyed all saw, and God
willing I shall not be timid about
going again-when I take the no.
tion-to seek a change and enjoy
the recreation. Everybody is nice
to me on these long trips. always

pleasant to get acquainted with, and
I afterward enjoy writing to them

The night before I started home

THE COUNTRY HOME
BY MRS. w. H. FELTON,

as early as 1875, forty-seven years
ago, and could only locate one con-
gresham who was a member at
that time. We were good friends
at the eginning-boarded at the
same hotel-so I always try to see
him when am in the capital.
His name is Joseph Cannon, from
the state Of Illinois, and he met me
in the speakers room promptly, and
we had a brief recall Of the old
times.
He was born in 1886; was born
in 1885.
He thought he was the elder, I'm.
til [ made it plain that I could out
count him.
He looks somewhat worn, and
they say he is tired and wants to
rest. but if the Illinois Republicans
vote him in, I am of the opinion
he would prefer to die in the har-
ness. think should feel that way
if I was in his place. He will be
| lost out of his congress life-and
I wish he may be returned in this
| years elections-for his own peace
Of mind.
He is a great favorite with his
| party, and l warned some Of them
| that they should not dine him too
| much. as acute indigestion is baG
for all sorts and all ages.
| There is an aged senator, from
Minnesota las recollect), but I have
no personal acquaintance with him
had pleasant call on the pres
ident, also Mr.. Coolidge, the vice
president, both of whom had beer
previously acquainted with, and both
made me feel like 1 was a welcome
visitor. I am Of the opinion that
both Of them are very high-tone6
| Christian gentlemen.
Rabid politics does not appeal tt
me. am for my own country first
last and all the time, and I meas
ure my admiration by the patriotism
of those who are selected to hold
the reins of government during their
stated terms Of office, and we are ir
safe hands-so far as can judge
and am perfectly willing to go OF
| record as saying so.
Wars are dreadful things, even 6
war IN Europe, for we Americans.
There is much unrest, and great
deal Of senseless clamor, and we are
taxed to the limit to pay for war
time extravaganza; and it is oul
bounden duty to support govern
ment of law and order and, try tc
"sit steady in the boat" when the
ship Of state is trying to hold ar
even keel in the perplexities of the
situation.

Controlling Undesirable Odors in
E. L. P, Sparta, Ca, writes:
I have been told that there is a
preparation that can be obtain
ed from the drug store that
when put into milk will kill the
flavor of wild onions without
injuring the milk or cream. Do
you know anything about this?
am anxious to find a remedy
that will keep the flavor Of onion
out Of cream and milk.
We are not acquainted with any
preparation that can be purchased
at a drug store or elsewhere which
will kill the flavor of wild onions in
milk or cream. We have tried a
great many experiments here at the
college in an effort to get rid of this
odor in cream which had been ship.
ped in here, but with very little sue
cess UP to the present time. The
plan adopted has been to heat the
milk up to a very high degree and
force air through it. Another plan
has been to heat it up to a high de.
gree and try to wash the odor out
with water, and then re-separate. 1t
takes a lot of equipment and is a
costly process at best, and up to the
present time we cannot commend it
as having proved of sufficient prac-
teal value to recommend to the IA
vorable attention of our farmers.
