Get Rid of Poor Hens. Is there any good reason for keep ing a lot of hens around year after year when they do not yield a profit nor even enough to pay for their keep? Better get rid of that kind w hich is usually the old birds of the flock. A trap nest will tell which hens lay the eggs, but the trouble with our folks is that they are too busy to sit around all day checking up the hens in a trap nest and the most of them will not do it. Pruning Peach Trees. In case of the peach tree, annual pruning is an essential to profitable fruit production. The fruit of the peach is borne only on the wood which grew the preceding year, and for this reason nature endows this ; tree with a strong growth, the shoots usually growing three feet and more, i As near as any rule can be laid down, it may be said that this new growth should be cut back from one-third to one-half. DOES POULTRY ON FARMS PAY? ____ Ohio Experiment Station Con ducting Investigation to Se cure Data on Cost of Producing Eggs. •O Jur. ary of this year eggs sere retailing in Cleveland ard in many other t.'. s in Ohio at aa cents per dor-n fturieg much of the winter tt> j were sell-:* at 40 cents or higher. Tutse prices almost prohibit the use of -sus as an article of food, and caused many consumers to jump at the conclusion that there was easy moseT in egg production. Careful inquiry among a cumber of farmers would se-rn to indicate that ' not to exceed Eve per cent, of the tens were laying at all during these j months of high prices, and that, had the producer received few his product i the price piaid by the consumer, he , would stiil. in many cases, have been j a loser Certain farms reporting to the Ohio experiment station at Woo*- \ ter. show an egg cost of from 7 to 13 cents each for the month of January. This does not argue that the poultry enterprise on these farms is an un profitable one as a whole, for the en tire year would have to be considered before arriving at a conclusion regard ing this; whereas, no data are as yet available for consideration in this con nection. The experiment station is. however, conducting an investigation along this line in co-operation with an increasing number of farmers and poultrymen throughout the state and will doubt- j less secure data which will have a very distinct bearing upon the cost of living. Tl^j? value of work of this kind can scarcely be overestimated, i All accurate imormation regarding . the cost of production will serve to bring the producer and consumer closer together. _ Remember that good drainage is tm ' portant on potato fields. Potatoes will stand less excess of moisture than most farm crops, and unless there is natural drainage • resort should be had to artificial drainage. 3RAISED SHOULDER OF VEAL Gcod to Serve When Family Is Tired cf the Daily Roast and Its Appurtenances. Put a shoulder of vea! and ask the butcher to bone it acd send the bones with tbe meat. Cover the bones with cold water, and w hen it comes to a toil. skim, then add a little onion and carrot and a few seasoning herbs and any spices desired Simmer genth for an hour or so until you have a pint of stock. To make the.stuf3ng take a stale loaf, cut off the crust and soak in a little co'd water until soft. Rub the crumbs of the loaf fine in the hands, then add to the soaked and softening crust. Chop one-half cup of suet, fine; put into a frying pan a ta blespocnful of the suet, and when hot add onion, chopped fine; cook until brown, then add to the bread with regular poultry seasoning of salt, pep per and a bit of tnyme Mix and stuff the cavity in the shoulder, then pull the flaps of the meat over and sew. Put the rest of the suet in the frying pan. and having dusted the meat with flour, salt, pepper and a sprinkling of sugar, brown on all sides in the fat. Into the bottom of the braising pan. which may be any shallow- iron pot or granite kettle with a tight cover, put a layer of thin sliced onions and carrot, a bit of bay leaf and sprigs of parsley, and on this lay the meat Add two or three cloves, pour the stock around it. cover closely and braise in a hot oven for three hours. i 1 ■ ■ 1 ■ i he Horned Decorated ctir.a plates should he put away with round pieces of canton fiamiel between Them Pillow s. too. should be treated in the same way if you want to keep them from getting musty. Mattresses should ba half turned and allowed to stand in a draft, so that the air will play all round them. Serve crisp celery with cold meat It is always appreciated, and it is a nerve tonic of considerable effective ness For washing coarse clothes soft soap is the best, and it has the advantage of going further than hard, yellow scap. All beds should be stripped before breakiast and placed where they can get plenty of air and. if possible, a lit tle sun. too. Enameled baths may be cleaned of stains with a rag dipped in salt mixed with paraffin. Afterward rinse well with hot water to remove oii. and dry wiTh a cloth .lapanned war0 should be washed with a sponge dampened in warm water and dried immediately with a soft cloth Obstinate spots can quick ly he removed by rubbing them with a woolen cioth dipped in a little sweet oil. If ynur corn does not pop well, it may be because it is old. Soak it in cold water for 15 minutes, drain and try again. Better results will undoubt edly be obtained If you cannot use a scrub brush to get into all parts of the refrigerator when cleaning it. try a small stiff paint brush for the purpose. It reaches the corners. In washing silk waists, handker chiefs. underwear, etc., use only luke warm water, and cold Is better, for the tot water will yellow them as well as give the silk an unpleasant stiff effect. Do not hare them damp when ironed, for the same reason. If they are rolled up in a cloth so that they will dry evenly they may be safely Ironed when nearly dry. Mattresses should be cleaned and remade every three years if you want them to keep their springiness. It Is worth while to buy good mattresses In the first place If you can possibly afford It, as these clean again and again and come up as good as new. Cheap mattresses are not worth re making and almost invariably get humpy after a year or two's wear. Brown Bread. This is a fine recipe for brown bread made with baking powder. Sift together one cup earn of corn meal, rye meal and graham flour, one tea spoon of salt and two teaspoons of baking powder. Blend one cup of sour cream with three-fourths of a cup of molasses and beat three-fourths of a teaspoon of soda into the mixture. Then add two-thirds of a cup of water and the dry ingredients, beating all wen together. Turn Into buttered baking powder cans, filling not more than two-thirds full. Steam three hours and then remove from eases and dry in oven about fifteen min utes. Smalt Glass. Save the glass from all small pic ture frames that you discard for some reason or other to cover bowls of left-over food that ycu put away in pantry or ice box. then when you wan; to use a certain one of them you see at a glance where it is with out uncovering two or three others first. It will be found a great con venience. Spinach Salad. Chop fine cold boiled spinach, sea son with salt, pepper and a suspicion of nutmeg and mold in small cups. Turn out when formed onto lettuce leaves and garnish with hard-boiled eggs sliced or the yolks rubbed through a ricer. Strips of Spanish red peppers may be used for a garnish if preferred Serve with mayonnaise or a French dressing. Persian Ice. Mix with a plain lemon sherbet the same quantity of finely chopped figs, dates, raisins and nuts. Prepare for serving .by pouring the mixture into tall, thin glasses. Place on the top a bit of whipped cream and a bit of pre served ginger Shamrock Pudding. One pint of milk, two eg^s well beaten, pinch of salt, three table^ spoonfuls of sugar, four crackers rolled fine. Juice of half a lemon and grated rind of same Bake. — Potato Hint. When there are almost but not quite ■nough potatoes for luncheon, hard boll two or three eggs, slice, mix with the cut-up potatoes and pour cream gravy ever them. USING LEFT-OVERS MANY WAYS BY WHICH COOK MAY ECONOMIZE. Portions of Meat Such as Are Fre quently Thrown Away Make At tractive Dishes and Give Variety to the Menu. Almost any meat bones can be used in soup making, and if the meat is not all removed from them the soup Is better. But some bones, especially the rib tones, if they have a little meat on them, c n te grilled or roasted into very palatable dishes. The “sparerib” of southern cooks is made of the rib bones from a roast of pork, and makes a favorite dish when well browned. The braised ribs of beef often served in high-class restaurants are made from the bones cut from rib roasts. In this conection it may be noted that many of the dishes popular in good ho tels are made of portions of meat such as are frequently thrown away in private bouses, but which with proper cooking and seasoning make attractive dishes and give most ac- t ceptabie variety to the menu. An old recipe for "broiled bones” directs that the bones (beef ribs or sirloin bones on which the meat is not left too thick in any part) be sprinkled with salt and pepper (cayenne), and broiled over a clear fire until browned An other example of the use of bones is toiled marrow Lone. The tones are Cut in convenient lengths, the ends covered with a little piece of cough over n hieh a floured cloth is tied, and cooked in toiling water for two hours. After removing the cloth ar.d dough, the tones are placed upright on toast and servtd Prepared as above, the bones may also be baked in a deep dish. Marrow is som 'lines removed irom tones after cooking, seasoned and served on toast. Trimmings from meat may be utilized in various “made dishes.” or they can always be put to good use ir the soup kettle. It Is surprising how many economies may he practiced in such ways and also in the table use of left-over portions of cooked meat if attention is g.vtn to the matter Celery Toast. A dainty dish lor Sunday night tea is celery toast. For a small family, | clean one moderate sized stalk of cel ery. using ali the stalk, root ard such leaves as are blanched and tender. Cut in small pieces, put over the fire and boil till tender, taking care not to have too much water, so that it may boil down and retain all substance. Add a generous pint of milk, keep over the fire until scalded, then ; thicken very slightly with flour, lastly adding a piece of butter the size of a ' hickory nut. You will need eight slices of toast, which should be brown and ! crisp. Butter these and lay in a deep covered dish. Turn the celery gravy over it and serve immediately Do not dip the toast in the milk. This is delicious dish of w hich a family does not easily tire. Convalescents usually enjoy it also.—Woman’s Home Com panion. Hannah More Pudding. Six ounces of apples, six ounces of beef suet, six ounces of bread, six ounces of raisins, six ounces of sugar, and three ounces of candied lemon peel, half a nutmeg and one glassful of brandy. Chop the suet very fine; grate the bread; mince the apples and stone and chop the raisins; pound the sugar; cut the citron into thin slices; grate the nutmeg: beat the eggs; add them to the brandy; stir them all together. Mix the pudding and place it on ice the day before it is to be served. On the day of serving boil it in a well buttered quart mold. Duke of Portland's Pudding. Half a pound of flour, quarter of a pound of sugar, five eggs, six ounces of butter, one pound of raisins, two ounces of candied orange peel, a pinch of salt and a little nutmeg. Put the flour into a basin with the pounded sugar. Hub in the eggs well , beaten, one at a time. When mixed, ' stir gently in the fresh butter just melted and beat it up as you do for a cake. Add the stoned raisins, the spice and candied orange peel, cut into shreds. Pour into a mold or basin, leaving room for it to rise. Put it into boiling water. Let boil for about six hours. When done turn it out and serve with sauce. Rhubarb Fool. Cook half a pound of rhubarb with six tablespoonfuls of sugar, two slices , of lemon and nearly one cupful of wa ter. until tender Into a pitcher put one pint of milk, three wel -beaten eggs, three tablespoonfuls of sugar and a pinch of salt. Stand the pitcher in a saucepan of boiling water and stir until it thickens; do not boil. Then very gradually add the cooked rhubarb, stirring all the time and giv ing an occasional stir until cold. Then put it into a glass bowl, stand It on a glass dish and fill in the space be tween with sliced cake. Bananas in Sirup. Heat an enamel-lined saucepan, some red currant Jelly and raspberry Jam dissolved in water, in all making a pint. When all bolls drop It to It a dozen peeled bananas and simmer gently for 20 minutes. Remove the bananas carefully, boll the sirup, add a few drops of lemon juice and strain over the fruit. Serve cold in a glass dish with a garnish of stiffly whipped cream. Cleaning Utensil*. Get at the pa^nt store or hardware shop a few sheets of medium grain sandpaper Cut them up into squares about 2 by 2 inches and keep near the sink. When your pans or skillets are greasy, or blackened, or rusty, wet the article and rub with sandpaper. It will leave the pan perfectly clean and bright- Beats scouring powders. Try __ Biscuit Dough. When you have tea or baking pow der biscuit dough ready for cutting, in stead of making plain biscuit, spread the dough with butter, sprinkle with sugar and dust lightly with cinnamon, roll like a Jelly roll, and cut into slices an inch thick, and bake in a moderate oven. These are excellent with tea or coffee for lunch or breakfast. This Fact—that in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are con fiding your private ills to a woman—a woman whose ex perience with women’s diseases covers twenty-five years. The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, was icr years under her direction, and has ever since her decease continued to advise women. Many women suffer in silence and drift along frcm bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty causes them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician. Such ques tioning and examination is unnecessary. Without cost you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual experience is great. MRS. PINKHAM’S STANDING INVITATION: Women sufferingfromany form of female weakness are in vited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lvnr. Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman; thus has been established this confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Never has she published a testi monial or used a letter without the written consent of the writer, and never has the company allowed these confi dential letters to get out of their possession, as the hun dreds of thousands of them in their files will attest. Out of the vast volume of experience which Mrs. Pink ham has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge needed in your case. She asks nothing in return except your good will, and her advice has helped thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, should be glad to take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.

Indiana Chicago, Illinois LIMBURGER AND THE LAW Odorous Compound Responsible for Some Trouble and a Little Al leged “Wit." “Technically.” said Judge Wells to William Rung in the municipal court, , “you had the right on your side. How ever, you chose a form of cruel and unusual punishment that cannot be tolerated by this court- I'll have to fine you one dollar.” It appears from the evidence that Mr. Rung, who is a stereotyper, sat down to luncheon with Edw ard Snider, a fellow employee. The piece de resist- ; ance of Rung's luncheon consisted of i limburger cheese, and Snider, who re gards himself as something of a wag, j had made certain remarks about the cheese, reflecting particularly on its odor. Thereupon Mr. Rung smeared a piece of the cheese over the humor ous Snider’s countenance. “This." said Rung, as he stepped up to pay his fine, “is the kind of justice that smells to heaven." “That will be about all from you." said the court bailiff: "cheese it!”— Chicago Record-Herald.
