GERMS PLANT DISEASES
 DISCOVERED IN UPPER AIR

Scouting trips with airplanes show that spores of certain plant diseases are often found at heights of 10000 feet in the upper air. This is one explanation for the spread of such diseases as black stem rust or small grain, say spe- cialists of the Department of Ag- riculture.
 Investigators working with white pine blister rust have found that spores of that disease falling in perfectly still atmosphere from a height of one mile require 55 hours to reach the earth. Such experiments make it clear that plant disease spores may be blown for long distances unless brought down by rain or some other ag- ency, the Department of Agri- culture announces.

Efficiency in Home

Efficiency, not neglect. is the
reason why American homemakers

quired by European women. Fig

research bureau of a Mid-Western
city reveal that the average Amer
lean homemaker wife accompliShes

nine hour days.
European observers cannot con-
ceive of homemakers finishing
their duties in this manner" says
the bureau. "They cannot under
stand how a woman who is not a
home drudge can be interested in
her home. 1t is beyond their
ability to realize American women
follow housekeeping as a highly
specialized business"

Fabric Rugs Can
Be Cleaned Easily

AS most fabric rugs are easy to
handle, the home-maker need not
hesitate to wash them at home.
This should be done frequently,
as dirt diminiSheS the beauty and
lessons the life of all fabrics.
The best way to wash fabric
rugs is to immerse them in luke
warm soapsuds, plunging them up
and down until the colors appear
fresh and undimmed. Two or
more soap baths and several
rinSings may be necessary to
loosen the dirt and carry it away.
The rugs should be squeezed
without wringing or run through
a clothes wringer and then hung
over the line to dry,

SUNDAY MENUS
SUGGESTED

The following recipes are
printed today for the benefit Of
those who may find the need Of
suggestions in preparing Sunday
dinner.
Dress, clean and stuff and truss
a chicken or turkey. Place on its
back on rack in dripping pan.
Rub entire surface with salt,
spread breasts and legs with three
tablespoons butter rubbed till
creamy with two tablespoons
flour. Dredge bottom of pan
with flour. Place in hot oven,
and when flour is well Drowned
reduce heat, then baste. Cover.
If not covered, continue baSting
every 10 minutes till fowl is
done.
For basting, use one-fourth cup
butter melted in two-thirdS cup
Loiling water, and after this is
gone use fat in the pan. When
necessary to prevent flour burn
ing. add one cup boiling water.
When breast meat is sufficiently
tender the bird is done. A four
pound chicken will take about
one and a half hours to roast. A
turkey will require twenty min
utes to the pound.
Bread Stuffing
3 tablespoons melted butter.
tablespoon chopped onions.
112 cups dry bread crumbs.
to 2 tablespoons milk or stock.
u teaspoon each sage, chopped
celery, parsley.
teaspoon salt.
"a teaspoon pepper.
Melt the fat in the frying pan;
add onion and Saute until tender.
Add bread crumbs and Seasonings
and mix well. Add milk or stock.
This makes a loose, light stuffing
preferred by many to soft, moist
or compact type Of stuffing. May
be varied by leaving out onion
or sage, by adding chopped celery
or two tablespoons of seeded
raiSinS.
Candied "Sweets"
Boil six small sized potatoes,
peel them and lay on shallow
plate or pan. Put a teaspoon of
butter on each potato, sprinkle
on them one-half cup brown
sugar, two tablespoons water in
pan, cook slowly and baste as
you would meat. Cinnamon,
cloves, nutmeg and lemon peel
improve the flavor.
Cranberry Jelly
Pick over and wash four cups
cranberries. Put in stew pan with
two cups boiling water and boil
20 minutes. Rub through sieve,
add two cups sugar and cook 5
minutes.

TEAS POP ULAR
FOR WINTER
PARTIES
February Is Time to Give a
Thought to Entertaining at
Afternoon Functions

February is the time for teas,
whether you are giving a little
one or a big one, at your home
or at a public place where you
have nothing to do but smile
and look gracious, while you
stand for interminable hours
But teas are lot Of fun and
satisfaction, since they serve to
get friends together who seldom
have time to really chat, and
since they may serve to introduce
a friend visiting one, some mu-
Sician one is anxious to have
ones friends hear, or some lit
erary person who is visiting ones
well-patronized civic club.
Color Favored
It is pretty and also smart
this season to have ones idea
