Sailed Peanuts Are Not
Difficult to PREPARE

Peanuts may be sailed in the same
way as almonds or other nuts. They
are not difficult to prepare, and one
may have fresh supply at any time
by sailing them at home. The recipe
is from the bureau of home economics:
Loosen the skins Of fresh, unroasted
peanuts by placing them in water at
a temperature of 50 degrees q. for
minutes. Slip the skins off, spread
the nuts in a thin layer on cloth or
clean paper, and let them dry for "a
to 4S hours at room temperature. Pre-
pare q kettle of cooking oil for deep
fat frying, place the nuts In small lots
in wire basket, and cook them for Z
minutes at temperature of $50 de-
grees G. They should then be uni
form golden brown, tender, and crisp.
AS soon as the nuts are removed
from the oil, place on absorbent paper
to take up the surplus fat, and sprin-
kle them with salt while still warm.

CLUBS ASSIST IN
COMMUNITY WORK
Most Often Consists of I'm
proving Public Houses.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
A number of counties in Virginia
have carried community project"
during 1927 as a part of their home
demonstration program. Many inter-
esting results have been reported to
the United States Department of
Agriculture. Most often the community
work consisted in establishing or i'm
proving some public building used
frequently by farm women or by the
community as whole.
For example, the Elon Home Dem
onstration club, in Amherst county,
decided to- improve the library, with
it's attached kitchenette used for large
community gatherings, and the library
grounds. The club contributed $50
gold piece won the proceeding year for
the best county record, and each men,
Der gave a dollar, while a Lynch
burg business man interested in home
demonstration work added $25. Hus-
bands, sons, and brothers helped with
the work, but the women did their
share, too. The old platform formerly
used as porch for the library was
torn down and replaced with con-
crete and rock porch which adds
greatly to the appearance of the
building. The windows were screened,
the kitchenette was equipped, shrubs,
flowers, and evergreens were planted,
and the library was painted.
Several other home demonstration
clubs report such accomplishments as
getting the road to the school repaired,
helping establish the hot lunch sys-
TEN, making Fairgrounds out of
rough areas, or equipping the play
ground with apparatus like slide
boards and swings, and contributing
to the cost of putting running water
in the school.
In Brunswick county the Edgerton
club undertook to help set out trees
along it's main highway. A county
cemetery was taken care Of by mem
bers of the Beulah club, in Henrico
county. The women put gravel on the
walks and cut the grass.

COOKING CHICKEN
WITH VEGETABLES
One of Most Delicious Ways
of Preparing Is En- Casserole.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
One of the most delicious ways of
preparing a fowl that has passed its
first youth is to cook it en- casserole
with vegetables. Even the oldest
rooster can be completely disguised
If served in this way. The long, slow.
moist cooking in the covered dish
makes even the drumsticks tender,
while the flavors of the chicken and
vegetables form delicious blend.
The bureau of home economics
gives the following directions for pre-
pairing fowl en- casserole with vege-
tables:
pounds fowl 2 stalks Of celery
carrots / green pepper
/ onion
Cut the fowl into portions con-
venient for serving. Slice or chop the
vegetables into very small pieces. Dust

HOW A GOAT GOT
GOAT" OF A GUIDE
'Hard Luck" Joe Loses Lariat
Showing Skill.

Jasper Park, Alberta.-"Hard Luck"
Joe Smithers, guide, Jasper Park, is
looking around for a new lariat.
Which "Hard Luck" Joe declares,
is his second piece of bad luck since
he left the prairies. His first was in
coming to the mountains. "Hard
Luck" Joe has taken dislike to the
mountains.
Down on the prairies now man can
lope along for miles without winding
his horse on a trail that should be q
staircase with hand rail to match.
And then, too, on the prairies man
has chance to show how good he Is
with rope. In the mountains 1t is
different.
Joe was explaining this at some
length to his tourist party at the head
of Maligne lake. "Rope"-why he
could "rope" anything.
She was mild-looking young lady,
but, as Joe says, straight pretty" and
she had sharp pair of eyes as well,
because she spotted a mountain goat
only about 500 feet above the camp,
close to group of spruce trees.
"There," she said, "Mr. Cowboy, Is
something you can't rope."
Joe snorted. After the steers he'd
thrown, the calves he'd "heeled," and
the cayuses whose ears he'd flicker
with his loop-"Sa-ay man wouldn't
even need a horse for goat"
Even now Joe is not quite certain
as to how he got close enough to the
goat to throw his rope. But he did.
1t settled nicely over the two black
horns and the white head. There was
a moments pause while the goat sur
veyed Joe in mild surprise, and while
Joe thought of blending" his rope
around tree. But there was no tree
quite handy enough.
And then the goat made up his mind.
He was taking different direction
to Joe-but not for the first hundred
yards or so. Joe hung on as long as
he could. That rawhide lariat had
cost lot of money. But the goat
had his eye set on black peak
straight ahead-and up-considerably
up. The rope burned Joe's hands as
it passed through them.
On his return Joe admitted to the
mild-looking young lady that "goats
sure come husky in the mountains"
Outside Of that remark he was notice
ably silent for the rest of the trip.

Vast Quantities of
Water Under Earth

The quantity of water underground,
beneath the crust of the earth's sur
face is nearly one-third the total vol
ume of the oceanic waters, according
to estimates of DR.. Chester A. Reeds.
of the American Museum of Natural
History, New York, who has just COM
pleted investigations of buried rivers
and caves. The earth's ground water
extends to great depths, perhaps six
miles, and has been accommodating for
countless ages. This great mass of
water percolates slowly through the
porous and jointed rocks to form great
systems of underground drainage, ere
ating such beauty spots as Mammoth
cave in Kentucky and the Endless cav
ems in Virginia. In the limestone re-
gions, where so many of these unfa-
miliar streams are found, the forma-
tons of huge stalactites, stalagmites,
columns, and stony curtains in the
cavernous depths remind one of the
artistic handiwork of ancient artisans
on the Renaissance palaces.
