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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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. Address Mrs. Pinkham, care ci Lydia
