stimulating a healthful activity. Its
beneficial influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation of
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi

Salt fur Coirs.
A supply of salt available whenever
the cow wants it is necessary to main
tain a high milk yield. Salt stimulates
the appetite and assists digestion and
assimilation, which Increase the flow
of 'the fluids of the body. Salting feeds
for dairy cows once a week is not suf
ficient. It Is a good nlon to keei rock
salt under shelter where the cows cn
get it at will and then feed loose salt
once a week in such quantities as the
cows will eat. Loose salt may be used
exclusively If it can be sheltered from
rain. Do not mix salt with feed, for
frequently cows get more salt thnn
they need, which will reduce the flow
or uitlk. Cows bavlne salt kent before
them at all times In separate compart
ments will not eat too much.

wholesome to most people. As indi

tion, is made up of 73.3 per cent water,
18.4 per cent carbohydrates (principal
ly starch), 2 2 per ceut protein, 0.1 per
cent fat. and 1 per cent ash or mineral
matter. These figures represent gen
eral averages from which there are
wide variations In individual speci
mens. When potatoes are eaten with
meat, eggs, or fish, which are essenti
ally nitrogenous foods, a well-balanced
diet is obtained.

Tha Ponltrr House.
Now is a good time to disinfect the
poultry house, so as to keep the lice
from getting a mastery over you.
Any kind of liquid lice killer is good
to spray the house with, being sure
to spray the roosts and nest boxes as
well. If a cheaper disinfectant Is re
quired, a whitewash can be made of
lltue and water, with some crude car
bolic acid In it This proves a very
good deodorizer and disinfectant, and
a large quantity of it can be used
without hurting the pocketbook too se
verely.
Lack of Material.
The laying of soft-shelled eggs is
caused by lack of shell-making ma
terial, in the shape of crushed oyster
shells or some other form of lime. The
hens should have plenty of good grit.
Half the time the fowls are left with
out a good supply of grit to grind tbe
food, the natural supply being inade
quate or inferior. Rice table scraps
will make hens over-fat and have a
tendency to cause hens to lay soft
shelled eggs. Farmers' Home Journal.
Pearh Ilattcr Pudding.
Fill a pudding dish with peeled and
halved peaches, pour over them one
pint of water, cover closely and bake
until the peaches are tender, then drain

the Juice oue pint of milk, four well
beaten eggs, one cupful of sug:ir, one
tablespootiful of melted butter, one
saltspoonful of salt and one cupful of
flour mixed and sifted with one tea
spoonful of baking powder. Beat well,
pour the batter over' the peaches and
bake until a rich brown. Serve with
sweetened cream.
Potato Croquettes.
A delicious way of serving potatoes
Is the following; Boll and mash twelve
medium sized white potatoes, using
one tahlespoonful of butter Instead of
milk. When they are nearly cold add
beaten yolks of three eggs, oue tea
spoonful of chopped parsley, one
quarter toaspoonful of grated nutmeg
and six drops of onion Juice. Stir these
Ingredients together until they are
smooth. Make up Into small cone
shaped croquettes and stand away to

Dolled Custard.
Into a quart of milk stir a pinch of

How Seeds Are Scattered.
Dr. Howard, secretary of the Amer
ican Society for the Advancement of
Science, writing of the manner in
which seeds are carried to great dis
tances by birds, recites an experiment
of Darwin which had a curious result
Adhering to the leg of a wounded part

weighing six and a half ounces. From
the seeds contained In this ball he
raised thirty -two plants, belonging to
Ave distinct species.
Wounds on Trees.
No artificial medium can be applied
to the surface of a tree wound which
will Induce it to heal more quickly.
The activity of the healing process de
pends upon the character and position
and the time of the yenr when the
wound Is mnde, rather than upon pro
tective coverings, but where a large
surface of heart wood Is exposed it is
advisable to protect It from decay by
a cont of white lead or other satisfac
tory covering.
Milk tor Calves.
The calf finds in fresh milk while It
is still warm with the animal heat of
the cow, It Is said, a constituent value
not found in the milk after it is allowed
to get cold. The chemist cannot define
it, and it cannot be restored again by
warming the milk. If every calf could
be fed its milk sweet, and while it still
retained Its animal heat there would no
doubt be fewer cat-bammed steers going
to the block.
Tapioca Puddins,
Boll one-half cupful of tapioca and
one cupful of sugar in three cupfuls of
