quarts of vinegar; add two cups
brown sugar, one-half ounce stick
cinnamon, one tablespoonful whole
cloves, three blades of mace, twelve
allspice, one tablespoonful mustard
seed, two bay leaves, three chill
peppers and salt if necessary. Hold

Compounded Spices
In bygonc days the adage Things
are rarely what they seem" could
be applied broadly to spicesy espe-
cially the ground ores. Nowadays
the we'll known names of the com
panies manufacturing spices are
guarantees in themselves that the
products are pure and first grade.
The chemical testing of these prod
ucts in the Institute laboratory was
rather a matter Of routine, such is
the reputation that they have built
up, and analysis and comparison
with the Federal standards confirm
this view. The standards call for
only the minimum strength and
purity that is legal, it is true, but
these products markedly exceed the
legal requirements for purity and
the averages recorded for strength
by several per cent.
The picking spices are mixtures
of many varieties of whole spices.
For the housekeeper who does not
wish to stock each variety and mix
them herself these are extremely
useful and the measuring of them
simple to the last degree. They are

Even for the sour pickles little

Quality and Char

Materials
BY Bertha N. Baidrcin

DICkLING in the cities may be q
a lost art but it is still going
strong in the country and sub
urban localities. When a garden
supplies material in abundance,
these spicy odors watt from the
kitchen,
But even the "cliff dwellers" have
preferences from childhood days
which no manufacturer can satisfy,
and it may be worth while to buy
the raw materials in the market to
produce these old favorites.
Pickle making is, after all, only
another way of preserving fruits
and vegetables for winter use. Salt,
vinegar and spices preserve against
spoilage as do sterilization in can
ming and sugar in preserving.
Therefore the quality of these mate

The Salts for Picking
Salt is an essential to pickles as
it is to every other food Most
vegetables are soaked from twelve
to twcnty-four hours in brine before
seasoned vinegar is poured over.
The brine draws out part of the
moisture from the tissues OF the
vegetable, making more compact
and firmer pickle and gives a good
flavor. In addition, the salt checks
the action of spoilagc organisms,
acting, asa preservative.
TOO Strong a brine softens the
vegetable, on the other hand. The
old directions, to make the brine
strong enough to float a fresh egg,
give good results, although they can
be expressed more accurately as one
cupful o6 salt to two quarts OF
water. Al4niider brine is often sug-
gested-olfe, cupful of salt to four
quarts Zone gallon) of water.
Two salts were tried out in the
Institute pickle making and general
cooking and found good. The CO.

ioned salt bag and has no anti-hard-
oning additions. Although it makes
no claims to being a shaker salt, it
does not cake or harden markedly
and is SO per cent pure salt. a
good old-fashioned salt for a good
old-fashioned price-seven cents for
two pounds-and especially good
for picking, when saltiness matters
and caking does not.

START To REBUILD
ARLINGTON BRIDGE

Construction work to replace two
spans in the Arlington bridge over
the Hassayampa river near Buckeye,
which were washed out by the floods
last August, is progressing rapidly,
according to a report made to the
state highway department yesterday
by A. w. Daniels, contractor, engaged
in repairing the bridge. The bridge
is expected to be finished about the
middle of July and ready for traffic,
MI. Daniels stated.
The state is engaged in putting in
two 90-foot steel truss spans to con-
meet with the remaining parts of the
bridge. The piers and abutments of
the bridge and the floor will be made
Of concrete. At present one pier has
been completed up to the ground line
and the excavations for the abut-
ments are nearly finished. The con-
tract for the bridge was let several
weeks ago, and the steel for the
structure is now in transit to Phoe-
nix.

CITY OF MEXICO. April 2o.-This
s an outdoor city IL there ever was
one. People live on the street. They
eat, make love, sleep, rest and gossip
on the street Any doorstep is
port in a storm to the low class peon.
Last night passed group after group
of silent men and women, squatted
by the great carriage doors of the
households to which they are at
tached, the men wrapped in their
zerapes, hats drawn down over their
eyes, feet tucked under them. The
women sat crosslegged, shawls drawn
about their heads and shoulders. Now
and then a little murTnur Of talk
reached my ears. For the most part
they sat, as might their Indian an
cestors, in the shadow of the wall.
A flood of moonlight cast every
shadow in tones of sepia and ebony.
There are beggars, of course. There
are beggars in every city and es-
peciaily in every Latin city. There
are perhaps a few more beggars in
the city OF Mexico than in the cities
OF Italy and Spain, because of the

GETTING STAND OF ALFALFA
Iowa Farmers Secure Best Fields by
Seeding During August and
Without Nurse Crop.

Experience Of many Iowa farmers
and of the Iowa agricultural expert,
ment station is that the surest method
of getting a stand of alfalfa is to seed
during August without a nurse crop
on land which has been plowed in
early summer and cultivated at ten
day intervals to XIII weeds and con-
serve moisture. Objections to this
method are that the land does not
yield returns during the season pre-
ceding seeding, that 1t requires ad-
ditlonal labor, and that grasshoppers
frequently damage the alfalfa con-
siderably on small acreages. However,
general experience in Iowa Justifies
the method above suggested as 1t pro-
duces the best fields of alfalfa.
