RECIPES?
MRS. J. H., Alexandria,

MIS v. II, AIcIutI tUa
After recently trying the
"maraschino cherry" cake
recipe sent to the Clearing
House by an Arnold resident
it was lost. It was variable,
to orange or lemon cake. APP
plying all rules of cake max
ing and following the recipe
to a "T'' the results were not
perfect. The cake attained
the correct height on the out
side, but it fell near the tube.
Am very anxious to try again
for the correct result. May I
have some help, please?
Regarding the much dis
cussed hot milk cake: How
do readers get along" with
this recipe? It is the one cake
I have had the most trouble
with. Have never mixed a
more beautiful dough-only to
have each one I make cook
poorly! I recall a wonderful
cook who turned out hot milk
cake from a wood range oven.
That cake was a beauty to be-
hold, even before icing. It
also had the most delicate,
though rich, frosting.

For Mrs. M. F. T.. Washing
ton: There are numerous jig
saw puzzles which are simple
enough for a child that age.
If he needs new ones you can
make them by cutting a post
card or picture into pieces.
I would arrange a bowling
alley with ten pins about 6 or
8 inches high and let him roll
a tennis or rubber bali to
knock them down.
He could make lines on a
blackboard with either hand
which is free. Plant some seeds
and let him watch their
growth. A few goldfish are in
teresting, or a little pet turtle.
Read him the poems from
Stevenson's "'Chld's Garden
of Verse" After several read
ings you will find that they
are memorized., My son has
remembered them for 80 years.
This can be a very happy time

GARDENING ADVICE.

Mrs, D. !. c.. Falls Church,
In reply to Mrs. s.. CT. of
Falls Church. who wanted
gardening advice: I am not
an experienced gardener but
have been gaining quite a bit
Of experiencearsince we pur-
chased a home (also in Falls
ChurchJ three years ago. Much
information can be gotten
from seed catalogs, gardening
advice in the Sunday news
papers and from gardening
books in the libraries.
The Falls Church Library,
at Broad and West streets,
even though a small library.
is the source Of much infor-
nation. A gardening book
titled, Landscape With Shrubs
and Flowering Trees" by Mary
Deputy Lamson. is very good.
This book advises the best To-
cations for shrubs and plants
(by name) and will help you
to choose additional plants. OF
all gardening books, I like this
one the best because it is not
lengthy.
Azalea bushes require acid
soil, SO purchase the acid COM
pounds to mix into the soil.
Roses will need nicotine sprays
because Of aphids and Japa-
nese beetles. The Sunday,
March Is. edition of The Star
advised that dogwood trees
should not be planted deep.
the roots should be planted
about an inch below the sur
face and a mulch added to the
surface.

PLAY.

PLAY.
mrs. C.. d. H., CheDy ChGSe.J
In reply to the Brownie
leader searching for q play
for her troop, I can recon-
mend play used by my fifth
grade intermediate Scout
troop. It is called Dorothy
Makes New Friends" and a
free copy may be secured by
writing to the National Con-
ference of Christians and Jews,
Southern Building, Washing
ton, D. C. Just be sure to
mention that you are a Girl
Scout leader. The play is
suitable for grades 3 to 6,
has only nine speaking parts,
but the other girls may be on
stage as schoolgirls. We used
it as part of our international
friendship program, which was
most appropriate as the play
has a brotherhood theme. It
has the further advantage that
it can be produced or copies
reproduced without permission.
Our troop enjoyed doing the
play, with one reading re-
hearsal and two rehearsals on
stage. Properties are simple
and so is costuming; we used
no scenery. It plays about Is
minutes, including the few
minutes between acts. Good
luck with your dramatics!

PLANTING GERANIUMS?
MRS. E. A. F., Ke1Sin0ton.)
Last fall I inquired through
the Readers Clearing House
for a method by which gera-
NUNS might be kept for use
this spring. I was advised to
remove them from the ground
and hang them in the base
ment upside down until spring,
when they could be replanted.
Will some one please tell me
how and when to set out these
plants? They are extremely
dry and dead looking now, but
understand that they will re-
vive or sprout new plants
when given proper care.

during the summer this weekly
piece can be turned into a love-

wasn't cleared in the Readers

here. There1l be plenty of space
to clear just about anything.

RECORD YEAR

The increase in collections of
motor fuel tax in Delaware which
prevailed throughout the summer
months of last year, continued in
November according to a report
compiled on the receipts for No
Vember which were collected dur
ing December. The report, which
was released by Leroy F. Hawke
who, as Secretary of the State
Highway Department is Admins
TRAITOR of the Motor Fuel Tax Divi-
sion of the Department, and pre-
pared by w. H. Sterling, Auditor
for the Division, shows receipts for
November as being $440, 1891.
While November was the first
month for the previous six months
to drop below the half million dol
lar mark in motor fuel tax collec-
tions, it did show an increase of
$21, 062.60 over November of 1851
when the collections amounted to

Starting in May of 1852 and con-
tinuing through october of that
year the receipts from the motor

tor fuel tax collected during No
yenber represented the sale of g.
806s798 gallons of fuel, an increase
of 421 ,252 gallons over the same
