Culinary Science.
Farmer' wives, by reaon of the
up-to-date teaching methods of the
home economic department of the
state university, extension division,
are able to keep abreast with city
women in culinary science. The lat
est recipe coming from the depart
ment teach the farmers' wife how to
make conserver which are explained
by the department as being "combi
nations ol Iruits whose flavors blend,
preserved with sugar and served as
a 'spread.' " Nuts and raisin are
said to increase the food value and
palatability. The recipe say that
when nut are ured, they should be
added five minutes before removing
from the fire. Satisfactory results are
said to be obtained by substituting
white corn syrup or one-half of the
amount of sugar in conserves. When
the supply of preserver are run out
in the spring, very good conserves
may be'tnade with dried fruits and
with rhubarb, home economics spe
c'alists say.
Two recipes for conserves are igv
en in the latest bulletin of the de
partment. They are:
Palatable Conserves.
Grape conserve: Five pounds of
grapes, four pounds of sugar, grated
rind of one-half orange, juice of
two medium sized oranges, une
pound seeded raisins, one notind of
chopped English walnuts. Wash and
stem the grapes. Separate skin
from pulp. The skins may be run
through a food chopper before eook
insr. Cook them until tender. Cook
pulp and put through sieve to re

FOOD FOR THE TEETH.
Dr. S. A. Cohen think getting the
r ,lit kind of treth i more impor
tant than keeping the teeth we hive
clean and white, lit say that teeth
decay because they are chalky, or
(ft in spot, or bcraic of o "c
thing clae, whirh ign fie that they
were not r ght to begin w th.
The firt art of teeth i formed be
fore the child i born. They stun
forinimr in the ixth week of fetal
I fe. The lay ng down of the en
amel ia begun at the seventieth week,
and it i completed in the hi-t nilk ,
tooth, jut at the time when the first
milk tooth j due to cut through t lie
gll'".
Therefore, the prrgnant mother i
reiponsible for tlie size, shape and
structure of the baby' niilk teeth. If
l'e dor not yet mouth lime and
phosphorus in her food, or if she
vomits exees'ively or has no anpe
lite and tloe not eat, her baby'
trfth are liat'Ie to suiter.
The reaeon the mother's teeth de
rnv, or become loose, or show other
ailment, is because her teeth are be
iuz robbed of ome salt to supply
the baby growing teeth.
In the Forjythe clinic 75 per cent
of the mother of the children in at
tendance gave historic of dental ad
nu-nlj duriiiif pregnancy. Most of
these admen's 'got belter at the end
of prcpnanry and returned with the
urcerilwg pregnancy.
We have noticed how much more
regular in arrangement, perfect in
form, and good in quality are the
milk teeth, a compared with the ec-
oud set. The reason is that the baby
before birth is far better protected
than afterward. The laying down of
the enamel on the permanent teeth
starts at birth. At 12 years of ae
the enamel layer of the wisdom teeth
the last of the teeth are furnished.
If the child i poorly nourished,
and especially if it does not get
enough lime and phosphorus, during
the first 12 years, the quality of the
teeth will be affected.
Every attack of scarlet fever,
measles, rickets, diphtheria in fact,
every fever lasting more than four
days will register on the teeth. The

to make thr (curst fed merry, ami
krep lluiu from ((rumbling if lliey
didn't happen to like the refresh
minis. I'siully, after a partv, the guest
didn't stop laughing for a dav or
two afterwards, on account of the
pranks that Jimmy played.
Of all Jimmy' caprr. the field-and-forest
folk agreed that the fun
niest wa hi mimicking of old dug
Spot. Thi took place at i fancy
drcs ball which Hilly Woodchuck
gave to hi friend in the paturc
one evening.
To everybody's delight Jimmy
Rabbit bad made himself look a
much a he could like old dog Spot.
He had paintrd big. dark red spot
upon his coat with the juice of
elderberries. He had tied a cat-lail
to hit own stump of a tail. lie wore
a battered hat which hid hi long
ear. And he came to the ball carry
ing a bone in hi mouth.
All the other guests dressed as
kings and queens, clowns and fairies,
farmers, robbers crowded about
Jimmy Rabbit the moment he ar
rived, and rocked with laughter. He
wagped his tail, up and down, caus
ing the cat-tail to bob tiuecrly.
"You don't wag your tail the right
way," Hilly Woodchuck told Jimmy.
"Old dog Sp.it wag his from, side
to side." To tell the truth, Hilly was
a bit jealous of Jimmy and his cos
tume. He wore, himself, his moth
cr s oldest sunuonnct anrj ner scconn
be?t apron. But nobody had laughed
at him.
"Is th s better? ' Jimmy Kalmlt
cried. And he spun around quickly,
bringing the rat-tail with a thump
across Billy Woodchuck' nose.
The whole company laughed at
Billv now. And for some reason or
other he didn't realize it in the least.
Sad to say. he flew into a rage and
chattered his teeth at Jimmy Rabbit.
"Sick him, Spot!" Paddy Musk-
rat cried. And Jimmy Rabbit rush
ed at Billy Woodchuck. He couldn't
bark, because he had never learned
how. So he tried to growl. But the
only sound he made was a weak
squeak, which Paddy Muskrat's wife
declared was the funniest sound she
had ever heard,

And Jimmy Rabbit, who wa al
way good-natured, wagged his tail
violently and capered up to Mr,
Woodchuck, saying that he was orry
if he had hurt Hilly and begging her
not to leave.
"Look out for the dog!" cried Ma'
ter Meadow Mouse, who had been
watching the fun quietly.
The whole company shouted gaily
at that except Jimmy Rabbit. He
saw a lanky form lean over the pas
ture wall. And he whisked about and
ran.
The rest of the party Mood still,
with their back to the stone wall,
and watched him with cries of glee.
His cat-tail tail struck the ground at
every jump. His "hat, slipping out
of place, let his ears stick up oddly.
And then everybody jumped. A
sharp bark scared the whole com
pany dreadfully. They knew, in a
flush, that the real old dog Spot had
come to the f.iticy dress ball, like

Billy Woodchuck had often teased
him. And he wanted to sec Billy

Now. Jnnmv Rabbit had never
learned to bite anything except a
cabbage, or a lettuce head, or a tur
nip, and such things. He didn't quite
know what to do.
But .Billy Woodchuck could bite.

Parents' Problems
How can a good memory best be
developed in children?
As soon as a baby can understand
language, memory training may be
begun by talking about the events of
the day at bedtime, and later by re
calling things of interest after several
days have passed. When he can talk
he should be encouraged to talk about
things he has seen and done in an
accurate way and to "remember"
things of similar interest. Small
children enjoy learning the names of
outdoor things flowers, birds, in
sects and with a little thought on
the parent's part, days out of doors
may give splendid training.
