N oh -urul lfarvi Machin- Machinery PRESERVING JUICES OF STEAK GIRDLER ATTRACTS ATTENTION AS ENEMY OF THE GRAPEVINE the following general advice about steaks: "The underlying principle which governs good broiling Is this: One side of the meat must be quickly sear ed. the meat must be turned, and the other side quickly seared. This pre vents the escape of any of the Juices. Turn almost constantly for the first minute of the cooking, then the meat must be cooked on one side, turned and cooked on the other, to suit in dividual taste. "The best cuts of meat for broiling are porter bouse, sirloin, crosscut of rumpsteak and second and third cuts from top of round. Porterhouse and sirloin cuts, although commanding about the same price per pound as the croas cut of ibe rump, prove more expensive on account of the greater loss In bone and fat. Round steak Is very Juicy, but. having coarser fiber, Is never as tender. Neither la the flank end of a porterhouse very ten- tier. For this reason. It is a good plan to cut It off before cooking the steak and use It for meat cakes (Hamburg steak) or a small stew, or perhaps a small beefsteak pie. Cut out the tenderloin and reserve It to be took- ed for one meal; cut off the flank and save It to be prepared for another; then broil the sirloin for dinner. The bone may be used to give added rich- news to the stock. If tbe flank end is utilized for a stew. WANTED—Fifty Tie-Makers Alto Puli» Mild rillntf Cultora mix ! 20 IMMM.

The grapecane glrdler Is an insect not often mention'd In entomological literature, probably for the reason that in the past It seems to have confined Its attacks chiefly to the plant known as Virginia creeper or five-leafed ivy, ampelopsls qulnqucfolia, and has seemed, therefore, of but little eco nomic Importance. In this state It ap- pears now to have developed a prefer ence for th« grape. In several locali ties I have seen grapevines presenting a ragged appearance on account of the dead tips resulting from the Insect's attacks, but I have never been able to find either the beetle or evidences of Its work on ampclopsis.
