At this point tbe chicken and vegetable should be well cooked uud have taken on a flue rich brown color. Arrange tho chicken on n dish and surround It with all tbe vegetable and keep It warm. Pour three to four ta- blespooufuls of hot water In the sauce- pau. tlr It carefully so as to set free all the chicken gravy which may be sticking to tho bottom, and when' lt Is all well dissolved pour Into this .sauce over the chicken.

HOW TO GROW VEGETABLES, Beads Just Should Nsvsr Be 8own After a Rainstorm. Just nfter n rain la n poor tluio to sow seeds. It Is bettor to wait until tho ground can ho raited or harrowed easily. When transplanting ii to bo done, first wet the ground thoroughly. Then It will be possible to tuko up a good ball of eurth with tho pluut, und the roots will not suffer. Corn aud melons should not be culti vated deeply. Tho toots grow near the surface, uud merely stirring tho soil sutllclently to create a dust mulch la all the plants require. ' It Is Important to have tho garden tools sharp. Somo people novcr think of sharpening tho blado of a hoe, but It Is altogether worth while. Squashes kecl best If allowed to re main on the vliies as long as possible before tho season of hard frosts. Then they get thoroughly ripened and tho shell well hardened. Poultry manure Is u good dressing for tho vegetnble garden If scattered over tho ground In tho spring and cul tivated In. It Is particularly good for forclug tho growth of onions. Seeds of beets', parsnips und carrots germinate slowly. Often weeds como up thickly before tho plants .appear, but tho gardener Is afraid to cultivate. A few radish seeds sown with the oth ers will obvlnto this dllllculty by mark ing Jho rows within a few days. Scmo gardeners greatly lmprovo their lettuce, Swiss chard and spinach by growing them under n canopy of cheesecloth held about live feet abovo the ground by stakes or u light frame. An excellent way to economlzo labor In watering plants Is to sink a tomuto cun Into tho ground at the base of each plant, huvlng llrst punched tho bottom full of holes. The water ur ed into tho can will reach the roots directly and not bo wusted. Weak manure water may be given this way to excellent ndvuntugo If the plants need feeding. Generally speaking, tho depth to plant should bo four times tho dlam eter of tho seeds. arm rv Ss um-A-Lum Lbr.

C. WADE, Agent Madras, Oregon IsSSsiS HOW TO KEEP BEDROOM COOL Window Boxes Filled With Flowers Do tha Trick. People who cannot afford tho country and mountains during the dog days arc often vexed by little troubles with temperature in the sleeping rooms Electric fans will do n good deal, but one cannot have them all over tho house. Awnings help, and so docs tbe cool" white wicker furniture, but to have truly pleasant and airy sleeping quarters with imitation whiffs of coun try air ono must resort to horticulture In window boxes and all kinds of fresh water tactics. A window box overrun with bright xreeQ creepers and redolent flowers will not only Improve the prospect from your bedroom window, but the atmosphere ns well. Living plants ab sorb heat and poisonous gases, nnd the aroma of certain flowers has a salutary Influence. Flowers of a heavy, cloy Ing perfume should bo avoided, how. ever, as they stimulate rather than soothe tbe senses that ought to be composed In sleep. But with a general array of foliage and flowers on the window und bal cony you may get u taste of tbe coun try-In spite of tho dusty thoroughfaro and leafless alley below. Especially when you vote for the other altera tlons such as bare or scantily covered floors, willow furniture and awnings summer life In the city may appeal to you. Your bedroom may be as cool and breezy as a fresh air camp. A running faucet or u bowl or bottle of Ice water on your table at night will lower the temperature nt least Ave degrees. If your room has fairly large nnd well screened windows with a transom opposite you can provide for a free circulation of air even on hot and sultry nights. If you sprinkle your window boxes copiously lt will have tbe same cooling effect on tho surrounding air as u summer shower. I PORTLAND I Teuchlnaj Tem'e Sad Caaa.

The problem of removing grass stnlns from linen hud confronted me a long time, said a housekeeper recently. We were Invited to spend the duy In the country. On arriving home I found my children's dresses covered with green grass stains. I feared they were ruined. The next morning I scalded them with boiling water, all to no purpose. Then I laundered them with white soap and rinsed; tho stains seemed more vivid. In despair I laid them on the lawn In a hot sun all day. At night I brought them In. Not a trace of stain remain ed. I have tried It successfully on cambric nnd percale many times since. How to Clean Hats. The easiest way to keep the straw hats of tho family as good as new Is to buy 5 cents' worth of oxalic ncld, a clean, soft cloth und a toothbrush. Dissolve tho ucld, tuko the hut In I lie left hand, dip the brush In the ucld, rub a small piece nt n time und then rinse off with water and wipe dry. Work rapidly, holding tho hut so the acid and wuter will run ofT. With lare it can be done without tuklng off the band nnd accomplished In a few minutes. It la best to work near a faucet. Hew to Serve Deml-taist, The very latest wrinkle iii eoffn serving Is to puss rock candy broken in uny bits instead of the customary lump sugar. Tho tiny coffeo cups so much in voguo now in their silver hold. ers are entirely too small to use even a half lump of sugar. Bo the rork candy not only ia advantageous, but leoks very pretty heaped in a little all vtr er (bus sugar bowl.
