"In that country onco known as the
'Great American Desert,' embracing a
portion of Tovas and Arizona, there
arc no odors," said a citizen of Dallas
to a reporter. "There luscious grapes
and many other fruits grow, especially
near cross-timber country, but there
is no perfume; wild flowers have no
smell and carcasses of dead animals,
which in dry seabons are very plentiful,
emit no odor. It was always supposed
tO'bo a treeless plain, upon which no
plant could grow or breathing thing
could live, buta large part of it is now
successfully cultivated, and but for
the rarity of the atmosphere, causing
the peculiarity I havo named, and the
mirages, which are even more perfect
than in the desert of Sahara, no one
would look upou it as a barren country
now. Another singular feature com
mon to the desert land is that objects
at a great dlstunee appear greatly mag
nified. A fow scraggy mosquito
bushes will look liko a noblo forest.
Stakes driven into the ground will
seem liko telegraph poles." Dallas

AMERICA'S OKEATJJST SEED GKOW
I3KS. Thirty years ago when the Salzers
were conducting in a small but profit
able way, a market garden and green
3iou.se business in La Crosse, Wis., they
little dreamed that within a third of
a century they would be the leaders
in the seed-growing and soed-selling
industry of America. The secret of
xliis phenomenal success was quality,
liberality, push. Nothing in the world
advertises itself quicker and better,
and more lasting than quality and to
the superior merit ot Salter's northern
grown seeds; to their unusual life and
vigor and to their absolute surety of
growth, in conjunction with their
great producing qualities and this
coupled with the great liberality of the
firm in the way of rare and many extras
to each order and push back of all,
has placed the firm in the van and en
titles them to the proud distinction
of America's greatest seed growers!
The production of rare vegetable sorts
and new farm seeds has long been a
great specialty with this company,
owning and operating many thousands
of acres of land. Their great eight
hundred acre Jrial farm in South Da
kota was visited by thousands inter
ested in higher farming, and all rail
roads gave half-fare rate within the
state to any wishing to see the farm.
The Salzers pay great nttcntion to the
new grasses, clovers and fodder
plants", and their catalogue contains
4 he largest list of rare farm seeds
found in America.
A strong point of tbe John A. Salzev
Beed Co. is that they keep large stocks
of everything in the seed line on hand,
f-o that a customer ordering of them
is always sure of getting what ho or
ders. A slight idea of the magnitude of this
firm's business can be gathered that
they issue probably the largest num
berof cataloguesofanyAmerican firm;
that they use over $00,000 postage a
year, employ in the packing and dis
tributing of their seeds upwards ot
Bix hundred hands and require for
their distributing warehouse over ten
acres of floor room.
A five cent postage stamp sent to tho
John A. Salzer Seed Co., La Crosse, Wis.,
will bring you their great catalogue.

HOT WEATHER SOUPS.
Directions for Concocting Several 1'nliU.
nltlo Kinds.
Consommes and any soups except
rich, thick broth, may bo properly
served in summer. Tho more delicate
cream soups seem especially adapted
to tho season. Thero aro few dishes
more delicious than such a soup when
it is properly made and few that aro
bo easily spoiled. Tho most common
error is for them to be of watery con
sistency instead of a soft, creamy char
acter of what the French call a velvety
subat&cce. (llenco they name their fa
vorite white sauco "velouto''.) Slow,
careful cooking alono develops tills
quality. A fresh pea soup is ono of tho
most excellent in the whole list. Put
a pint of green peas over the fire to
cook in a quart of white broth. Chop
a small onion and a carrot fine. Fry
them in butter, or with a small piece
of salt porlc, of tho size of a finger, add
a spray of parsley, one of celery, a bay
leaf and a sprig of thymo. Add these
ingredients to tho peas, and let tho
whole cook for one hour very slowly.
At the end of this time strain the soup,
pressing tho peas through a sieve, and
lot them cool over the flro for ten min
utes longor, stirring them constantly.
At tho end of this time add half a cup
of hot cream, or a cup of milk in which
tho boaten yolk of an egg has been
stirred, adding this mixture first to a
small quantity of tho hot soup and
then beating it into the whole. Leek
soup is by no means to bo despised on
tho score of health. Wo ought to cat
freely of all albuminous vegetables in
tho summer. The lenk is a more val
uable vegetable in soup than the com
mon onion, though the onion may bo
substituted for il in almost any placo
where it is used. Take six white leeks,
peel them and cut them up and fry
them in butter the size of an egg until
they aro a golden brown, and add a
scant half teacup of Hour. Now pour
in a pint of boiling water, with salt
aud pepper, and lot the whole simmer
slowly for one hour. IJroth may be
used instead of water, but water makes
a very good soup. When the leeks aro
cooked add a pint and a half of boiling
milk and two hot boiled potatoes,
mashed and mixed to a cream with a
little milk. Let tho whole boil up,
stirring it well, then strain it, pressing
the leek and potato through the sieve.
Iteturn tho puree to the fire, let it cook
about ten minutes longer, then move
it to the back of the stove and beat up
tho yolks of two eggs with a little cold
milk and mix it with a cup of hot
broth. Pour this mixture in the soup,
and stir it all thoroughly. Do not let
the soup boil after adding tho egg
yolks. N. Y. Tribune.
A Very Thirsty I)o;j.
A young Wissahickon man, so the
tale goes, owned a dog of mongrel
breed, which had added to its one great
undesirable- quality of low birth tho
more offensive one of the mange. The
young man determined to sever his re
lations with the animal, and with that
end in view he secured a large wash-
tub and put staples in tho inside of it,
with ropes attached to them, to secure
ly hold the dog and keep its head un
der water. He caught the dog just as
'it came in after a long tramp in the
dusty roads. The doomed animal was
preparing to slake its thirst at the hy
drant, when its master grabbed it aud
tied it down in the tub. Then he
turned the water on and lot it run until
the dog's head was totally submerged.
He could not bear to see the poor brute
suiler, so he went away for a quarter
of an hour. He came back expecting
to find the dog dead Strange to say,
however, the doy was very much alive.
Thero was no water in tho tub; neither
was there any leak in it. The dog had
simply quenched his thirst Philadel
