His wife promptly disagreed with him. Sh.e said that mixing was only a small ,part of •.cooking and that the actual baking or cooking was most import- ant, and that recipes gave such in- definite directions. They might say 'a. moderate oven,' but people's ideas ,of a moderate oven differed, and that it took considerable knowledge be. side the ability to read, to cook sue, ,cessfully. She was very right. The baking :and cooking is the most important. I try to give all tate little details inm iny recipes. To some experienced cooks these .may seem unnecessary, but we are not all experienced cooks. Even the experienced cooks can find differ- ence t make.the d if f the little trick's s tha ence between good cooking and just cooking, ,only by doing it, and if I can save them some of the exper.- dental work, so much tate better. I Y togivevery definite. directions. ►^t`t and exact temperatures for oven. Cooking. It is a splendid idea to jot down any remarks about your results on your recipes. I was reminded of this at Christmas time when I struggled to remember which pans were best for the different cakes. I have sev- eral sizes and shapes of pans and For the life of zne I could not remember Which pans held the different quan- tities, But I will not Have to guess tet year as it is marked down on the recipes. Sometimes it is •months between fhei t men I use a recipe and I have a time trying to remember which pan was the right size. I mark oven temperatures on my recipes. too. The old cook books and most of the recipes we get have no definite tem- perature marked so when I have the good results I jot down that temper- ature on my recipe,. My family nev- er know they are being experimented on, but I listen to their reactions on some new dish and if it is not favor- able I seldom publish the recipe. • If they like it you are pretty sure to get it some time or another. Pimples and Acne Skin infections are not always. caused by faulty diet, but improper food is a frequent cause. Attention to diet will do considerable towards clearing up these conditions, They did not come in a day and do not ex- pect after eating simple foods for a day 'or two to have them clear up. Stick to' it. Eliminate fried foods, r•iclt cakes and pastries, candies and ice-cream mixtures. • Drink orange juice o . to- n a w. t ovice 7 eat two .vegetables be- sides potatoes .for dinner, eat salads twice a day and have plenty of fruits.

I hear yo say, how can we have variety in• ve getables when "we Have to use th ones that are in our cellar: carrots parsnips and turnips•, Well, if yott cannot vary them any other. way change the shape in which you serve them, If you' have been cutting the carrots in round slices, cut then lengthwise in eighths. It may just be prejudice, but I think winter car- rots taste best when they are chop- ped after cooking. I chop ours with .an empty can. A little butter added to the water while the carrots are cooking improves the flavor of these winter vegetables. Cream them oc- casionally, or serve them mixed with peas. The little number one cans of peas are admirable for this pur- posea if you have been serving your par- snips mashed, try cutting thein in l - ten think mashed. potatoes ,taste •bet - d ter the second day than tbe•:first, While I have been writing''this there has been a delightful medley of Scotch airs coming over the' radio u and my fingers have been flying ov- er the typewriter keeping time to e Highland Laddies, Bonnie Dundee, and all the rest of the fascinating Scotch •airs.

C. War- ren of the Experimental Farms Branch of the Federal Department of 'Agriculture. "After potting the plants should receive a liberal water- ing and then no water given until needed. Blooming plants require more water than the slow growing plants such as palms. With a little experience one can tell when plants —really require water. The appear- ance of the plant is, of course, a good indication of its requirements. .A me- thod commonly followed is to tap the pot with the knuckles; if it has Plenty ty of water the sound is dull, if it is dry the pot will ring. Occasion- al syringing is beneficial, especially for ferns and other foliage plants. If properly used the jardiniere is a source of added beauty to our plants, but ordinarily causes great injury, This injury results from stagnant wa- ter' collecting in the 'bottom of tlo howl causing' what is termed.." et (eq." This may be overcome by )lacing a few inches; of gravel or an nvei'ted saucer in the bottom for the of to rest on.

The volume of store cattle shipped to country points is report- ed as 113,606 head for 1931, and 108,- 834 for 1930. Using Canadian Fertilttzers Helps Canadian Indastries In calling attention to the fact that depreciated currency has raised the price of imported fertilizers, George H. Clark, Dominion Seed Commis- sioner, points out that during the past two years thefacilities for the manufacture of fertilizer in Canada have been materially extended: As a matter of fact, during that period four new plants for the manufactu of superphosphate have been estab- lished, and .these have a combined capacity sufficient to more than sup- ply the entire domestic demand. Be- ing located regionally these plants are prepared to serve Canadian far- mers in all parts of the Dominion "By purchasing Canadian -made sup erphosphate Canadians are helpin. not only this new industry but a1��, our domestic sulphuric acid industry, as fifty per cent. by weight of sul- phuric acid must be used with the phosphate rock in the inanufacture of superphosphate," Mr. Clark: observes 01' varieties being sold in this fgritt. of ;.container, The 11 -quart basket proved ,a close second, but whether the popularity of the bushel package is due to grower enterprise and prae- lice. or to purchasers' preference is a debatable point, While the basket leads in popularity in Toronto mar sets most of the purchases reported in Montreal favoured the"measure," pecks or gallons, while the purchase by the. "pound" ii the predominant preference of the French-Canadian housewife, When asked why they did not buymore apples 41,2 per cant, of the re- plies received. stated that they were buying all they i;•equired,' and 34.7 per cent. stated that apt2les were too expensive, Only 3.9 per cent, gave lack of storage facilities as a reason, and an equal number stated "poor quality," Only 6 out of 655 replies complained of poor grading or roar- keting methods, Ridding Plants of Bugs One of the aesthetically attractive features of Canadian homes, urban and rural alike, is the house plants which in great variety and cheer; by the delicate pastel shadings in leaf and vine, and the wealth" and profuse ion of bloom, But one of the big dif- re ficulties encountered with house plants is keeping them free from cer- tain species of plant insects. The Dominion Experimental Station at Charlottetown, P.E.I:, supply the fol- lowing useful suggestions:— Red spiders thrive under house conditions and are hard to overcome. _ At Charlottetown 'good results were g obtained by dusting carefully with flowers of sulphur. Sucking insects are controlled with nicotine sulphate, one teaspoonful to one gallon of wa- ter; biting insects with a tablespoon- ful of arsenate of lead to the same amount of water.Scale insects on ferns may be controlled by miscible oils now on the market. Old• -Fashioned. Cold Cures In these days of modern medicines with the drug store just around the corner, and niid the complexity of modern methods many of the good old-fashioned homely remedies, tried and proven in the pioneer days by our forefathers, have been neglected and forgotten. But Canadian. Onion. Week—January 24 to 30, serves to bring them again to notice. One simple but highly effective prescrip- tion, as those who have tried it as a cure and relief for whooping -cough will recall, is to boil an onion in hon- ey, with the patient taking a spoon- ful of the brew from time to time as occasion requires. This "cure" is passed on to you from the recipes of an old pioneer family of the Ann - .Polis Valley. in Nova Scotia:—Dept. of Agriculture, • Ottawa. Science Sees An Egg ' With test .tube and microscope science takes an egg and seeks to find of what it is made, and here is the result: Water 65.5 per cent; pro- tein 11.9 per cent; fat 9.3 per cent; ash 0.9 per cent; waste portion, shell, etc., 11.2 per cent. The edible portion contains 73.7' per cent water; 13.4 per cent protein; 10.5 aper cent. fat; 1 per cent ash; and 1.4 per cent. oth- er elements. Among the minerals found in the egg: are iron, calcium, phosphorus, sulphur, magnesium, and traces of other minerals; and' in addi- tion to all these, or rather as a re- sult of them, those organic elements known as vitamines are present in large measure.—Dept, of Agriculture, Ottawa. Favour Apples in Baskets The current issue" of the Econozj jc Annualist„:supplies some -,interesting information as to popular preferences in the purchase of apples by consum- ers in Montreal and Toronto. Fig- ures secured as a result of a special questionnaire show that the G -quart basket leads in popular preference, with approximately 40 per cent of the early and 29 per cent. of the lat- Gyer: "There goes a man who has a fortune of nearly half a million, and it's mostly hush money.” ' Myer: "What!

But its gentle action soothes a youngster more surely th' -• a more. powerful medicine. That's the beauty of 'this special chddren.'s remedy! It may be given• the tiniest infant—as often as there is need. In eases of colic, diarrhea oa similar disturbance, it is invaluable. A Coated tongue calls for just a fere drops to ward orf constipation; so does any suggestion of bad breath.
