3 MOKE SNOWSTORMS,
SAYS S. MOKEMACHER,
AS BUSS SIDESTEPS
Aged Andalusia Prophet
Stands- by His Onions,
Bristling With Proof of
Storms to Come Ere
Winter Ends.
BOY SCOUTS
"There'll bo three more snow storms ero
the'tolntcr ends."
Ola Simeon M. Mokemacher mado this
remark this morning nfler lie had spent
fifteen minutes In his prlvnto garden,
hedged In by tangled saplings cunningly
planted by Mokemacher nnd even more
cunningly Interwoven by nature. The
carder) (n sltuato a few miles from Anda
lusia,) Pa. H Is reached by a circuitous
path that winds through dense under
grdwth and sometimes H completely
hidden.
Tho old prophet hnd Just been told
what George S. Bliss, local weather fore
caster, had to say about snow. Tho of
ficial predlcter was asked If ho thinks It
will snow any more this year. Ho laughed
a short, sarcastic laugh and replied:
"Nobody tan foretell snowstorms but
goOsebone and groundhog weather
prophets
"Theundcratlon," cjnculated Moke
machcr, when thli was repeated to him.
"I'm not a goo3cbono and I'm not a
RroumlhoT Tho nssevcr.itlon ot the of
ficial weather forecaster Is no reflection
On my system, so why should I resent It.
I simply stand by my onions. Mr. Bliss
can't tell whether It will snow three times
moro or not. Take out your little note
book, young man, and mark It down
three moro snows ere winter ends."
Mokemacher has what he claims to to
an Infallible system for prophesying tho
weather. He saya it Is a simple system,
arid today he consented to explain It to
a reporter who followed him from tho
store at Andalusia to IiIh hermit homo
and garden.
"The greatest authorities are agreed,"
ho said, "that thero is little difference
between nnlmnl and vegotable life. Could
Xhej discover tho cciiiiecllng link tho
evils of this world would be solved
instanter. My life work Is searching for
that lint and I may say I am In a fair
way to find It. My experiments are being
conducted on onions.
"To make a long story short, I can
foretell the weather accurately by the
amount uf resistance being put forth by
my private growth of highly developed
onions. Under my sBtcm ot grafting, I
have developed n 07 Ion that Is as mild,
as pleasant to the palate nnd tho nose
ns a strawberry. In Us on 11 season. But
when storm is In the air tho onion mar
shals all its latent strength.
"This special brand of onion Is covered
With a coat of hair so marvelously fine
that It cannot bo discerned by (he naked
eye. Ordinarily, It is almost Impossible
to seo thlB through n powerful mlcro
ncope, but when a storm Is coming this
hair stands up1, like that on the neck
of a savngd dog. It Is Infallible.
"Today I found tho hair standing up
like bristles on my onions. Also I de
tected a quivering In the onion Itself, and
from this I am certain thero will bo three
more snow storms."
"How do you determine the number?"
Siokcmarcher was asked
A'nal" he ejaculated, "that's tho se
cret; that, in conjunction with the hair
standing up and tho quivering of tho
vegetable. Is not only the secret, but It Is
the proof that I have found tho connect
ing link between animal nnd vegetable
life."
"Will you not reveal it?" he was asked.
"I will not." said Mokemacher. "IVhy
should I?"
Exhortation and entreaty were In vain.
Mokemacher was besought to tell, but
he remained obdurate. He was courtesy
Itself, but he would not tell. His visitor
was treated to a cup of steaming coffee
In the little two-room stone house the
old weather prophet built with his own
hands 25 years ago, nhen he started his
experiments, according to his story, and
then escorted to the outside world
through the maze of underbrush
"You keep In touch with me," was
Stokemacher's parting remark, "and I'll
keep you Informed about tho weather.
And also keep your eye open for three
more snowstorms this month and ere tho
winter ends."

ACTUAL COOKING IN CAMP
By T. L. TIERNEY
Director of Camp Pequa.
TM Is the third of a series 0 articles on
cooking bv Mr, Tlcrncy
Ah stated In a proWous article, this
division of tho general subject of cook
ing Is the hardest to Impart and cer
tainly tho hardest to do, and do well.
My llrst suggestion In connection with
this part of the subject would be care
ful watchfulness and "watchful wnlt
ing" and It Is as applicable to cooking
as to a dellcnte political situation It
requires tho undivided attention of the
cook to the actual cooking If ho hopes to
place before his comrades a well-cooked
meal.
Perhaps ono of tho mistakes most
often made, especially by beginners, Is
to place all of the various articles for
tho meal on tho firo at the same time,
rcgardlrss of tho length of tlmo required
for each" to cook, and na a consequence
part of the meal becomes cold beforo
tho rest Is ready. For instance, if jou
were going to have potatoes and beets
for the same meal, tho boots should
go on tho Are nt least an hour to an
hour and a hnlf before tho potatoes.
If ou were going to havo potatoes and
creamed beef, the potatoes should be
cooking 15 to 20 minutes before you start
tho beef.
In other woids, It Is up to the cook to
learn tho length of tlmo required to cook
each and every article and then plan his
cooking accordingly.
Learn to gaugo tho heat required for
different foods Some require Intense
bent and to bo cooked rapidly; others,
moderate hent and to be cooked slowly.
See that the heat Is distributed evenly
over the surface of tho pan or kojile,
Some articles require to be covered
while cooking; others do not.
Somo vegetables are better for being
cooked In several waters; for Instance,
onions nnd cabbage, unless very young.
The amount of grease used In frying
often determines the palatableness of-nn
article of food. Tried potatoes are often
spoiled by too much grease.
Seasoning food Is another very Impor
tant point in cooking to learn to gauge
the amount ot Bait, pepper, etc., required
1h one of the most difficult things. It Is
also neceBsnry to know when to season
Some articles require the seasoning as
soon' as put on tho tire, or before; others
do not require It until nearly cooked. For
Instance, putting salt in the kettle when
boiling new corn has a tendency to
toughen the vegetable. Some persons put
the salt in Just before removing the corn.
Personally. I like to leave the season
ing of new corn until It Is to be eaten.
Most of the vegetables can bo cooked,
nearly or quite done, beforo adding the
salt. 1
As stated before, this article is more
In the nature of a suggestion, and the
actual process will have to be worked
out by each individual until he becomes
what Is often spoken of as an intuitive
cook.

CHILDEEN'S CORNER
THE RED BIRD'S CALL
ONE. of those early spring days when
-everybody wants to be outdoors, a
red bird began hunting around to And a
good, place to nest.
HaJhUnted through two or three trees,
wound 4 grape arbor and In a lilac bush.
ByvUnUJlme he hod used up all his am

What's the use of my rushing around

tended to herself that she was planning
where to. plant her sweet peas!
But she didn't fool the red bird a min
ute he was used to watching people In
spring time!
After he had sung a note from every
tree nearby he decided to explore.
Like a flash of crimson he darted away,
never stopping till he found the biggest
tree In the school yard.
The morning was warm and the fur
nace was hot (you know perfectly well
how beautifully furnaces work when you
don't need them). 80 the school room
windows were wide open.
The cardinal surveyed the building
thoughtfully.
"Come herel Come hero!" he called
softly.
And then In a minute, "Come herel
Come here!" He sang It as loud as he
could.
For 50 minutes he sang there, calling
his very best to the children shut up in
side. The children lost their places in read
ing and forgot how to add and every
thing, because they Just had to listen
to the cardinal.
And pretty soon one teaober went
around and shut all the windows so the,
ohjldrea couldn't hear the bird. She

Poy Scout Training a School
The lessons Boy Scouts 'earn In their

Tho letter reads:
Dear Dbctor Hart:
I am very glad to take this opportunity
of expressing my cordial approval of
the Boy Scout movement In this coun
try, and my hearty commendation of the
great work for the boys that has already
been accomplished by t'nls admirable or
ganization. I know no other movement
on behalf of boys which seems to be bo
wisely directed and so effective In pro
ducing good results. Competent observ
ers have not hesitated to tell me that I
In their opinion very many of our boys
are getting more good, both morally and
Intellectually, out of the Boy Scouts than
they get out of their schools. I am In
clined to think that t'nls Is very largely
true. I ant quite sure that the Boy
Scouts deservo the cordial support of all
our citizens who havo the training ot
the younger generation at heart. You
can always rely on me to give you any
assistance that I can in this great work.
Faithfully yours,
P. M. RHINELANDDR,
Bishop of Pennsylvania,

OBJECT TO "ARISTOCRACY"
AMONG CAMP FIRE GIRLS
Chairman of Brooklyn Guardians Pro
tests Against New Regulations.
Officials of tho Camp Fire Girls denied
yesterday at the national office In New
York that there Is a serious revolt in the
organization. Opponents ot Dr, Luther
Gullck, the president, however, continued
to attack, him, declaring that his aim has
been to make the body "aristocratic,"
thus altering the original aims of the
Camp Fires. Dr, Gullck. at a sanatorium
in Battla Creek, Mich., declined to take
a personal part In the controversy.
A petition circulated by Miss Grace Cot
ton, chairman of the Brooklyn guardians,
protests against the new basis of mem
bership, according to which the "ranks
should be recruited flrst from those who
can help rather than those who need
help."
"Why create an arlstrocracy in Camp
Fires when Us chief good has been due
to Its democratic spirit?" she asks. "How
is it possible to classify girls according
to those who do and who do not need
helpT Are there any girls who do not
need help of some kind, or are there any
girls who cannot, under wise leadership,
give It?"
FRESH5IEN AWAIT "BIDS"
