The grand rush that is being made to the Oklahoma country cannot fail to re sult disastrously to a large number of people, it is estimated on good uuthoi ity that there will not lie sutlicient land to furnish one quarter-section to each of the land takers who are ulready there. From the history of former attempts to settle the country by many of the same "boomers" who are still there, it is but right to infer that they will stop at nothing, not even murder, to secure the coveted land.

For the benefit of the mothers who may think either I or the cooking school have gone astray on the matter of cook ing cabbage, I want to emphasize here the advantage of the new way over the old. 1 was as skeptical over the notion of cabbage being properly cooked in half an hour as any one of you can lie; but my first experience corrected me, and all who tasted this maligned vegetable served after the. new method declared themselves surprised. Have plenty of salted, boiling water, in which a teaspoonfull of soda has lieen dissolved, plunge the cabbage in downward, leave it uncovered and boil until tender, that will be, as in the time table, from twenty minutes to half an hour. , Take it out into a col ander, drain well, put into a hot, dish. put in bits of butter some salt and pep per, and serve at once. It will be as del icate as cauliflower; the color will lie re tained and there will not be an unpleas ant odor over the house, such as is al ways associated with boiling cabbage Try it once, and then see if the Schoo Kitchen Learning has not gotten several steps in advance ol your old, traditional methods.
