"To market, to market, to buy a pig," So runs a Mother Goose rhyme. Perhaps that is why Mother Goose never was rich, for in raising the tam- ily meat supply on the farm and pre- serving It there for Home consumption, there is a saving that rural folks should not overlook. These recipes show how pork p duets may be prepared and canned Immo. Pork Tenderloin and Chops—The chops and tenderloin may be can separately. Wipe each slice with damp cloth, and sear in hot fat. Se son according to taste, and roast un nicely browned. It is best to remo the bone from the chops Pack sterilized jars to within one inch the top, and add gravy made from stock and, hot water. Partially sea and process in hot water bath f ninety minutes. Finish sealing an store in a dry, cool place. Roast pork may be canned in the same way. If canned raw, the process is the same, except that it will need to be in the hot bath for three hours. Spareribs—Roast the ribs in the usual way until nicely browned. Re- move the rib bones and pack in steril- ized jars. Add hot gravy made from the contents of •the roasting pan. Par- tially seal and process in hot orate bath for two hours, Finish sealin and store in a dry, cool place, As a novelty, place a row of spare ribs around the can and stuff with sauerkraut, seal and process as for the other method.

For a year after she returned home she con - tinned to do things as usual, "at the Ped last minute." She was popular, and a people easily forgave the little anrioy- a- antes she caused them. tiI Then came Grace Gallaudet's wed- ding.

"Go down and see if they can't go somewhere else first," she replied, tumbling things frantically into the trunk. In twenty minutes it was packed, ✓ and Clorinda was placating the bag- gageman, who had waited. "That was g a feat!" she declared, breathless but triumphant, Twenty-four hours later, unpacking J the trunk, she gave a cry of dismay. She had left her bridesmaid's gown at home!

WASH -DAY PATIENCE SAVERS We have not all purchased electric washing machines as yet, and there is a simple home-made contrivance that wilt take some of the worry out of washing with round galvanized - iron tubs on which it is difficult to adjust a wringer. Have someone ad- just with a bolt and nut -over the screw on your wringer clamp a piece of hard wood that will always be in place to hold your wringer to the curved side of the tub. A clothes stick cut in two prongs is another wash -day convenience. And have you yet learned the value of clic- ing a lemon into the water in which you boil the clothes? These things truly are patience savers. EMERGENCY NEEDLES. If ane had a needle and thread al- ways handy it wouldn't be any trouble at all to . take, the moment it was needed, the stitch in time that saves nine. The large hotels have' adopted a practice which works out well in everyday homes. They keep two or three threaded needles sticking in the pin -cushion on the bureau. These are hot unsightly, for the thread is wrap -1 e. to • ped about the needle and shows, hut it is right there when emergency etiteh is to be taken. Th needles hold black thread as well a white and sometimes a couple of u ity buttons are added. Many: an pensive stocking has been saved by. having the dropped stitch eaught be -1 fore it has gone far, or a tiny rip is prevented from becoming a big tear by the ever-present needle.

They had walked several' miles without seeing a single bird when they discovered at some distance a big flock of ducks feeding on a shallow salt pond. They approached cautious- ly and for the teat four or'ilve hundred yards crawled on their stomachs- through tomachsthrough the tall grass and bayberry bushes. At last they reached a bird cover, where they hastily concealed. themselves. The little shack was com- pletely covered with bushes and sea- weed; the back was open, and Inside were a seat and places to rest guns. The hunters had just got comfort- ably settled 1n front of the peepholes: when a gigantte heron that had been feeding on the edge of the pond stroll- edtoward the sitacls and prepared to takea nap in the lee of it where the sun shone warmly. After looking care- fully round, he tucked his head under his wing and, drawing up one foot, went to sleep,. When he was settled Alvin leaned forward and acid in a low voice, "You are too near!" The heron looked up quickly but, seeing nothing, went to sleep again, Again Alvin spoke, this time more - loudly. "You're too near!" And, again the big bird awoke and looked about and, then went to sleep again. First one hunter and then the other repeated the words until they had the old felIgw fairly dancing on his long legs; but he would not leave the place, becausehe could see nothing to be atrald of! Just than something start led the ducks, and with a great flutter and wbirring of wings' the whole flock took to the air. Both shotguns spoke at once, and the second barrels blazed forth later. The guns were pointed directly over the heron's bead, and the ediock was too much for him.' Closing his eyes, he sank down on the sand, apparently lifeless; hta swings drooped and hie long legs stretched out, The hunters rushed forth to secure their game, and presently, talking and iaughing, they started back, carrying four or live fine ducks aplece.
