ELLIOTT, PUBLISHER AND PROPRIETOP ti THURSDAY, OCTOBEtt 18, 1806. HINTS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE When broiling steak try brushing it over with butter a :d floor to keep the juice in. Milk changed from a cool atmospere to a hot kitchen will sour in a very few minutes. Try dipping lamb chops in lemon juice just before broiling them. They are delicious. A few. drops of lemon juice added to scrambled eggs while cooking wit im- prove them. Try .harping the scissors by attempt- ing to out a large darning needle for a few minutes. To remove fly specks from varnish surface use equal parts of water and skim milk warmed. Discolored china baking dishes oan be made as clean as when now by rabbing them with whiting.. Pine cones make pretty picture frames and other novelties, and are nice clean play -things for clildren. Glass that has become dusty must be thoroughly dusted off before it is cleaned in any other way. Should grease be spilled upon the floor of the kitchen 3over it at once with cold water. This hardens the grease and prevents it from soaking in. It can then be easily scraped np. The mouthpiece of a telephone may become a fruitful disease dissemination. Use a few drops of carbolic acid on the damp cloth with which yon wipe it off. The reason is obvious in this "germ ago." Apple skin jelly does not sound attrac- tive, but it is as good as jelly made from apple juice. So much jnice is left in the parings and if these are boiled dcwn and strained one will find they have as good a grade of jelly and a few extra tumblersful. Table mats of raffia or straw are out of place on a dainty white damask table- cloth, and therefore, the housewife who feels t'Ia need of something under hot dishes is advised to out asbestos cloth the desired shape and size and make a white linen case to cover it, hemming the open ends, so that frequent launder. tugs may not increase her work. Oae culinary authority says potatoes The Skin Troubles of Babyhood • YOUR family doctor will explain to you, if you ask him, the mission of the pores of the skin, and will tell you of the dangers of using pore -clogging powders for the cfiaaiitsgs and irritations to which Iliabies are subject. Any mother who has used Dr. chase's Ointment for this purpose Will tell you of how beautifully soft dead smooth it has kept the skin, soad of how quickly it has cured the abating or irritation.

A. handful of salt should ba put into the pot. It raises the boiling point, so that quick cooking Is assured. and also adds flavor. The right way to find out whether a boiled potato is thoroughly cooked is to test it with a metal fork or knitting needle. Delineator for October. The strongest feature of the October Delineator, aside from the fashionn, which are spleudidly shown, is the open. ing of the Countess von Arnhim's new serial story, "Fraulein Schmidt and Mr. Anstrather." It is now publicly an nounced that the Countess von Aruhim is the author of "Elizabeth and her Ger- man Garden." The serial stories, "The Diary of a Baby," by Barry Pain, and "The Ohaufeur and the Chaperon," by the Williamsoas merrily continue. J J Bell contributes another " Wee Meagre gor" episode, and other contributors of short stories, are Ralph Henry Bar, our, George Middleton, Florence E. Wilkin. eon, and Ponnie A. Nedwill. John Vance Cheney is represented by a poem, "Hallowe'en." The Kitchen depart. ment, nutter the direction of M. Jeau Maiie Devaux, present's the second course of "A Perfect Dinner," some "Recipes for Cooking Game," more "Favorite Recipes of Famous People," and seasonable advice aboet peppers, melons and grapes; the continnatiou of "A Culinary Dictionary," and the be- ginning of a series, "Around the World in Eighty Dishes." Seasonable sug- gestions for entertainments may be foam in "The Practical Side of Amateur Thsatrioale," by Sarah Comstock, "A Paper Party,''iand "Hallowe'en Merry- making for Girls and Boys." Subjects of vital importance are treated in the papers, "Coloring a Life," by Lida A . Churchill, "The Art of Pleasing," by Edgar Salmis, "More Courtship After Marriage," and "A Royal Rca . to Per- fect Memory," by William George Jor dan. The departments, "The Money- makers" and "The Wisdom of Many" contain many original, as well. as sen- sible ideas. KILLS CATARRHAL GERMS. Hyotuei's Ifea11np Air Reaches Every Part of Nose,. Throat and Lungs. Hyomei is the only scientific and thor- ough way to cure catarrh. Stomaoh dos- ing does not reach the catarrhal germs in the air passages and cannot possibly drive them from the system. By breathing air medicated with Hyomei the germs in nose, throat and lungs re killed and all traces of catarrhal poison aro effe quietly driven out. Some people may think that Hyomei is simply tor catarrh of the head and throat, but it is equally effective in catarrh of the stomaoh, liver or kidneys. The catarrhal germs are in mucous membrane and Hyomei not only kills the germs in the air passages, but enters the blood with the oxygen, thus killing the germs in the blood and freeing the whole system from catarrh. Hyomei is sold under an absolute guarantee to refund the money uulesa it cures. A complete outfit costs but $1 00 extra bottles 80c. For sale by all dealers. The R. T. Booth Co , Buffalo, N. Y.

D. Gurlee Before Maine Btsate Board of Aai:riculture. The cows are groomed about a half hour before milking, and then, just in advance of the milkers, a man goes with a pall of warm water—warmed when the season requires it—and a sponge for cleansing the udders, One man can cleanse the udders for nine or ten milkers if the cows are conven- iently situateel, In my early work t• had each milker go over his row of cows and cleanse them before cleaning himself up. But I soon discovered, as the cows were put from the other sta- bles into this certified milk stable, that there was very soon a shrinkage in the milk, and it worried me. I did not know what to think. My Bret thought was that the cows had been inj}lred by the tuberculin test. Finally I evolved this idea—that manipulation of the ud- der In the cleansing stimulated the se- cretion of milk, and to get the best re- sults you must follow that right up and relieve the cow of her milk at once or else there Is a reaction that makes trouble. That solved the whole question. Clean Milking. Then we discarded the first fbw streams of milk from each cow. It has not much value anyway; there is not much fat in it. We milk through an absorbent cotton strainer applied to the top of the pail. This is regular surgeon's cotton. It is placed between two layers of gauze and put over the top of the pail and fastened there. The pall Is emptied through a covered spout, so the pall is not opened; only the spout is opened w11en the milk of each cow is weighed. From the barn this milk is carried in cans to the milk house, and there it is put through a centrifugal separator. That “Animal Odor." You'cannot have milk that is right and do the milking iu a stable that is full of floating life. The milk than comes from the udder of a healthy cow, after the first few streams are taken, which rinse out the milk chan- nel, is practically sterile. The germs get into the mills from the impure and insanitary surroundings. I have seen men who seemed to think that the germs were a part of the milk. They would talk about the animal odor and seemed to think that the milk had to have it, when tae facts are that the animal odor is filth, pure and simple. If we will take care of our cows and our milk with the neatness with which the women prepare the balance of our food, we shall Slave no trouble with an- imal odors. What Makes the Calf Grow. The parts of the milk that promote the growth of bone and muscle are in the skim milk. Too many folks think it's cream that makes a calf grow, but it is not. I Feeding the Milk Maker f Feed the calf, feed the heifer, feed the bull, feed the cow when in milk, when dry. at is not with any inten- tion to detract from the benefits .to be derived from better breeding that so much is said about feeding, but to warn against that too prevalent idea that breed will accomplish all without feeding. It has been our experience that the man who has learned the prin- ciples of better feeding, and adopted them, very soon learns how to improve by better breeding and selection. There is no intelligent dairyman who does not know that a very large percentage of the cows in this country are not pro- ducing to their fullest capacity and that because of the fact that they are insufficiently fed.—D. Drummond, Ot- tawa, Canada. Salt For the Dairy Cow. Extensive tests and investigations have been made by the Wisconsin ex- periment station for the purpose of determining the advisability of adding salt to the ration of dairy cows. As a result of these trials it is recom- mended that dairy cows in Wisconsin be given at least one ounce of salt per day. Exceptionally heavy milkers will require more than this. It is also said that the amount of salt which must be supplied directly will vary greatly in different localities, it being more at high elevation and at places remote from the sea. Prom (Green to Dry Food. flow shall the dairy cow be changed from green food to food more dry with the least shrinkage in the milk flow? The answer to this question will bo modified specifically by local- ity, but some things may be said with reference to it that will apply to any locality, according to Professor Shaw, who advises in American Agricultur- ist: As soon as the pastures begin to fail in quantity, so that the cow must necessarily begin to work for her food unduly, supplemented ;li)mT must be fur- nished. As soon as the grasses begin to materially lose their succulence more succulent food should be pro- vided. The former may be furnished. as mill feed or in the form of soiling food; the latter will be furnished nit soiling food, If the dairyman can fur- nish both nutriment and succulenee he ample supply In the soiling food, then outlay for mill feed is not necessary, and this certainly should be his aim. The soiling food at such a time will be peas and oats, alfalfa or some other tolling food preferably leguminous in character. Forage Items.
