NUTS IN DESSERTS, SWEETS

Desserts Of many kinds may have

Of those most frequently made with
chopped nuts are the various castard
mixtures such as baked custard,
floating island, tapioca cream, Gus
tard rice pudding, eustard nut pie,
and the so-called "eream pics,
which are really layer cakes with
a "cream" or custard filling. Cot

steamed puddings of many flavors

lowing letter to the firm:
Enclosed please find one dollar

Dear Sir:
Your order received. We are

we hope will prove satisfactory.

| about it," If a man enters bak-
cry and steals loaf of bread, he
IS sent to Jail. Apply the same
logic to the man who goes to the
lake or stream and steals fish
against the tenets of the law.
Make laws, not what the fish hog
wants, but what the fair-minded
sportsman wants and expects the
legislature and commission to give
him something that will save the
fish and make for the better
sportsman in every man who plies
the rod.
Those who fish for the sport,
the recreation, the enjoyment and
everything that goes toward clean
illness should be encouraged. Build
up fishing clubs whose ambitions
are to be fair to the fish and then
enforce them. Put men at the
head of our fish and game depart
ments who have put in more time
studying fish than they have poll
tics. Protect the fish from man
and Nature will respond and our
lakes will be kept stocked as they
were of yore. Propagation is all
right but | believe in protecting
what we have while we can. 1t
IS not necessary to lay the blame
to cannibal fish for the destruc-
ton we are now having, but lay it
where it rightfully belongs.

VERY LITTLE INTEREST AN Ex-wARDFN RFp1Fs
Town and Village Caucuses
Not What They Used to
Be-Very Quiet Affairs.

Take a town or village caucus
score OF years ago and it was
worse than the 18th Day of Ire
land which also has passed ont
for lack of old-time enthusiasm
Monday of this week was St PAT
rlck's Day, and there was very
little evidences of its remem-
brance. Used to be that the sham
rock was very conspicuous on that
day and whether you were Irish
or no, you simply wore the green
anyhow, and joined in with the
festivities. Them were the DAYS
Next to st. Patrick's Day was
the annual caucus and spring
election. Take the caucus for in
stance: Notice was given and the
Democrats and Republicans made
preparations far in advance, al
ways having their States" made
out before the day of the caucus.
Oftentlmes when the democrats
would open their caucus, the re-
publlcans would enter in a body
and would out-vote and place in
nomination some weak sister
whom they would later slam in
the mldriff when the day of cleo
ton came round. Or the demo-
Gratis would enter the republican
caucus and use the same tactics.
Those days there were no prohibi-
tionists or socialists just republi-
cans and democrats, and there was
no splitting in party lines,
either, You were a republican or
you were democrat. That's all
there was to it.
Nowadays handful of voters
meet the day of caucus and build
ticket. No excitement unless a
couple fellows enter in a contest
for some office, but even that is
mild compared to the days when
everybody within the whole dis
trict, regardless whether they had
vote or not, would make caucus
day one long to be remembered :.
fights, quarrels and breaking of
friendships were not an uncom-
mon thing. Printing offices were
kept working over time in order
to print libelous literature against
some opponent or party-and the
war was on.
Several caucuses were held the
past few days and the nominations
are:
