Savory Vegetable. Alfalfa is a very old plant. It was taken from Persia to Greece by Xerxes and his army, 500 B. C. Three hun dred and fifty years later the Romans carried it from Greece to Rome. Pliny, the Roman naturalist, who lived the first century after Christ, tells of its value. It was probably taken from Rome to Carthage and the surrounding ter ritory, and from there to Spain about 700 A. D. From Spain it was carried to France, to Belgium und England. It was esteemed in England when Co lumbus discovered America. Cortez brought it to Mexico, others took it to Peru and Chile, and to New England.

Two years after completing this road the railroad shipped from Fredericksburg, the county sent, during a period of 12 months, 71,000 tons of products of the soil, hauled over the improved highway to that town. Before the improvement had been made the total was only 29,- W0 tons annually. Results equally startling were shown in the quantity of dairy products.

Have a kettle of boiling water ready, put the cabbage in, add a small pinch of soda, let boll until tender, then take the kettle, stand It In the sink and let cold water run over it until you can put your hands Into IL then squeeze all the wa ter out of the cabbage, then chop It fine. Have a frying pan on the stove, put a small tablespoonful of lard in it or drippings (butter, of course, makes It still better). Take a medium-sized onion, cut it up fine and fry till brown. Add a tablespoonful of flour, stir a lit tle, then add the cabbage and thin It with hot water or soup stock (a good cupful is best), salt and pepper to taste. Let it cook up a few minutes, then serve. It is fine with any kind of meat gravy over it. Bairish Kraut—Take a good-sized head of cabbage, shave it fine and wash it. Have a large Iron kettle or n pan on the stove : put a good tablespoonful of lard In It. then take a medium-sized onion, brown it slightly, add the cab bage and just a little water (a scant half a cup), cover tightly and let it steam until tender. Stir occasionally so it will not burn. Add salt to taste, and a few minutes before serving, add a good tablespoonful of vinegar.

After the wheels are off the tank can be lifted on and the axles can be raised up with a long pole (one at a time) and the wheels put on. Where there are only one or two men it can easily be taken off in the same way. Two cupfuls granulated sugar, one- half cupful cold water, boiled slowly. Add quarter teaspoonful of cream tar tar, before it has boiled five minutes.

Then take in your hands and work and knead It till pli Pack in a deep able and smooth. dish and cover with a wet cloth. Let stand several hours (till next day is better), when It will be velvety and of fine texture. Don’t try to make it on a cloudy or stormy day, as a clear, bright atmosphere will give best re- suits. From this fondant all kinds of fine candles can be made. Chocolate Creams—Form the balls from the above fondant and let stand over night, to harden. Cook together one cupful granulated sugar, one-half cupful water and tiny pinch of cream of tartar till, when a little is dropped in cold water, it can be gathered on a spoon, then set on back of stove and add two squares of chocolate that have been melted, a heaping teaspoonful each of butter and vanilla, and set dish In another of hot water, and dip the creams. It takes but a few min utes for them to harden. Drop on waxed paper. They are extra nice.
