Sauerkraut "blooms at Its best" in Berks county. Philadelphia. And now is the Kituerkraut harvest season. l)..rL . ntmtxf firrnvfl WOUld not h lVltll- out sauerkraut If they had to send to the Fatherland for cbbaes. It Is second na ture to them. They like It better than the rarest fancy dish you can set before them. 1 The making of sauerkraut on these farms f parixkcs th nature of a holiday. It Is no unusual thing to find a farmer with an acre or two of cabbages, the stalks Waring beads weighing from two to twenty pounds each. After all loos leaves hav it removed and th cabbage head I ' solid. It kt sut lato halv, and othsr bands take, possession of the semi-spheres, and cut out the main stem or heart of the cab bage. This la to hard for cooking purposes ind usually accompanies the loosened leaves, to be fed to the swine. The semi-spheres are then ready for the cutter, a rotary machine, with sharpened knives, which Is operated usually by steam, water, horse or gasoline power, de rived from the barn. It does not take long with such apparatus to rut up l.OuO head., and on th larger farms the heads sliced will number from 4.0O to t.WO. It keeps one man busy to carry the heads In bushel baskets to the cutter; another has to keep his hands and arms swinging all the time to pUce the heads In the hopper of th cutler, while usually on of th women carries th sliced cabbag away la buckets after It Is cuL Tli main secret of making sauerkraut In Berks county style. Is how to salt It. Hug sternsrs ar ud, holding from forty to eighty gallons each. Into these, one bucketful after another, the sliced cabbage Is poured. It 1 evened Into thin layers, and the housewife, or in many cases the farmer himself, who years ago learned the trick from his mother or grandmother, docs th salting. The one who knows ex actly how much salt to put on each layer, and how thick the layer must be, is the one who takes the first prixe in th sautr kiaut factory. Pauerkraut is on of the staples on th Heading markets, and is sold freely as butt-r or eggs, the price being from S to 8 rents a quart. ' After th cabbage Is salted In the stern era, It la deposited In the cellar with heavy planks on top, and heavier stones Ion top of these, to keep It firmly pressed down. Thus It is left to Us fat during I th seasoning time, usually from fiv to , six weeks. J livery Berks farmer makes sauerkraut; j som of them only flv gallons each, which Is usually salted In stone pots; others fif teen or twenty gallons; but It Is a house hold article from "Albany Eck" to "Closn enhoppen Thai," and at 11 o'clock on any forenoon during the months of November, December and January H at cabbage aroma is In the air, above the farmhouse chim neys, like the fog that settKs on Ixindon on a misty day. The finishing touch of sauerkraut Is ad ministered by the housewife. The conking Of this delicious diali is not considered an easy task, as thoi flavor part depends much on th housewife's secret. It takes quite a period to cook It so It Is properly don, and the one who knows the very knack of It Is always sure to receive th applaus of the farmer, who would travel mile to get this dish. In preference to th finest brown-roasted turkey obtainable. Philadel phia Record. lit want ads an business boosUrs. COAL IN THE NATION'S BIN Entifk In Stock to Reach Far Be ond the Year of the Yoeng est Inhabitant. Geogollsts who are presumed to be great economists, or economists who are sup posed to be eminent geologists, try to scire the world from time to time by spreading the speedy exhaustion of coal or gold or timber. We are using all of them lavishly, and so far as we know nature Is producing no additional minerals. The forests are not being replaced as fast as they are cut off, but It can be done whenever mankind shall become sufficiently alarmed about th In terests of posterity, and th mineral wealth of th world Is greater than alarmists hav calculated. About fifty years ago England waa warned that It was approaching th end of Its coal supply, but It Is still abl to product enormously In excess of its own requirements. Twenty-two years ago the world was warned that no more large finds of gold were possible, and since then the South African and the Alaskan fields have been discovered and most of the older gold regions have greatly Increased their output. The preliminary report on the mineral resources of the United States for 19j7 is distinctly reassuring. Mr. Campbell cal culates that at tlie end of the last year there waa easily accessible In the fields of the United States nearly two million million tons of ooal, or enough to last more than t.0iu years at the rate of production in la(7. At to this state; and particularly In regard to anthracite, the calculations are much lee satisfactory, but he believe the bituminous coal in this state would last nearly 600 years at laat year's rate of pro duction. The rate Is Increasing every year, but two or three centuries Is as far ahead as we need to look. When we think of the economy of fuel In the use of gas engines, of the possibilities of electric power gen erated at waterfalls, and the possibllltlei of the soUr engine, we feel that we need not be anxious about our descendants be yond the year 2m. H estlmat.-s that tin anthracite would not last i years at last year's rate and without waste. Hut there Is waste, and last year's rate will be ex ceeded. S-ill. If It alia II hold out a'ccntuiy we ma expect the world to have othr means of geneiating amoki-Us l:eat and power by the Ume all the h.ird coal Is gone. Philadelphia Record.
