The enterprising housewife can get
a lot ot good things on the Umaha
markets now to convert into delicious
things in jars and glasses for the win
ter's delectation.
Quinces have, just made their ap
pearance. Quinces are not things of
beauty. But you know what quince
jelly is, the kind that mother used to
make and that mothers are mak'rg
nowadays, too.
Grapes are plentiful, the purple
kind that make such good jelly and
the prices are very moderate. They
will be even more plentiful in a week
or two.
Tomatoes are in the 'heydey of their
summer's existence and now is the
time to put up catsup and tomato
preserves.
'Little Picklei Abundant
Little pickles for pickling are abund
ant as are also little onions for the
same purpose.
Cooking apples are' coming in tin
goodly quantities, especially after the
gloomy prediction that they- would be
very scarce this year. Crab apples
are also plentiful, for making apple
jelly.
There is no sign of any decrease in
the visible supply of watermelons and
cantaloupes and the prices remain low
and the quality delicious.
Summer squash of several varieties
are on the" market.
Pears are plentiful, but peaches are
not very abundant.
Egg plant, cauliflower, red and
white cabbage, cucumbers, new swee,t
potatoes, wild plums are among the
good things in the markets.

Orange Cream Layer Cake
By CONSTANCE CLARKE,
Household Suggestions
To make a good furniture polish
scrape two- ounces of beeswax into
a pot' or Jar; add. as much spirits
of turpentine as will moisten the
whole, and the eighth part of an
"ounceof resin. Dissolve all this to
.the consistency of paste and add as
much Indianred as will deepen the
-color to a dark mahogany. Stir all
well together.! , ,
To wash brushes and combs, pot a
teaspoonful of ammonia into a basin
of hot water and dip the brush up
and down in it, letting the, comb re
main in the water for a few minutes.
Afterward rinse in cold water.
If new enamel pans are placed in
pan of water and allowed to come
to the boil and then cool, they will
be found to last much longer with
out burning or cracking.
; Always rinse black Stockings in
blue water, and they will keep a
good color right an -to the end. ...
Before cleaning knives on a knife
board, damp them slightly. They
clean more quickly and gain a better
polish. , -
It is at this season of the year that
the mind of the thoughtful housewife
turns toward the cake Vox, and- the
question of how to find something
that will be both good and unusual.
This is a delicious cake.
Take one cup of butter, work it to
a creamy consistency with two cups
of powdered sugar, after which add
by degrees three tups of sifted flour,
one-half cup of sweet milk and the
whites of eight eggs beaten to a stiff
froth. After working the mixture for
fifteen minutes, add two tablespoon
fuls of baking powder and one of al
mond flavoring. Bake in layer cake
pans, fill with orange filling, and
spread with orange glace.
Filling Put one spoonful of corn
starch in two tablespoonfuls of water
and, when it is dissolved, add the
beaten yolk of one egg and stir until
smooth. Place the juice of two or
anges and the grated rind of one of
them with one tablespoonful of water
on the fire, and when the liquid boils
add the egg mixture. Cook for three
minutes, add the slightly beaten
whites ot the egg just before taking
the tilling from the tire, and cool part
ly before using. '
Orange Glace Put the finely
chopped peel of an .orange into a
stew-pan, and pour over it two table-
spoonfuls of boiling water, cover the
pan and let the contents remain till
cool; then add the juice of the orange
and strain through a piece of muslin.
Take one and a half cups of icing
sugar, and mix with it three table
spoonfuls and a half of the liquor pre
pared as above; stir over a fire until
it is warm, and then use. Decorate
the cake with fresh orange slices.
