New Way to Preserve Food.
An Ingenious method of preserving
food lias recently been devised which
Is based on tlio fact that powdered
gelatin, or thin sheets of tho tarns
material, not only do not spoil, but
are capable of protecting incorporated
substances from bacteria, moisture
and other agencies which bring about
decomposition. Thus to nmke a con
centratcd heif extract, tea or coffee
extract, soup, etc., the liquid Is mix
ed hot with one pr cent, of primary
gelatin, which dili'ers from the com
merclal article In not liuvlug the gluo
like taste of the latter.
After cooling a jelly Is formed, and
this Is cut Into thin films and dried by
a current of cold nir until it becomes
brittle. When this condition is reach
ed the sheets tro then reduced to a
fine powder, which will keep indefl
nitoly. While it will absorb moisture
It does not do so to a degree to oc.
caslon decomposition, and the mols
turo is subsequently given off In dry
air. The powder, while likely to
cake, forms a brittle cake, not inter
ferlng with its use, while H is to-
hard for insects. When placed In
warm water it dli;.olves Immediately,
and Is thtt3 ready for use. If heated
above tho temperature of boiling
water before packing all disease or
other germs will be killed and to se
cure the best results tho powder
should be packed air-tight. Such a
concentrated food possesses many ad
vantages and is susceptible of wide
applications, as upon explorations.

When the doctor takes his own med
icine and the grocer eats the food he
recommends some confidence comes
to the observer.
A grocer, of Osslnn, Ind., had a prac
tical experience with food worth any
one's attention.
He says: "Six years ago I became
' to weak from stomach and bowel
trouble tbat I was finally compelled to
give up all work In my store, and. In
fact, all sorts of work for about four
years. The last year I was confined
to the bed nearly all of the time, and
much of the time unable to retain food
of any sort on my stomach. My bow
els were badly constipated continual
ly, and I lost In weight from 105
pounds down to 88 pounds.
"When at the bottom of the ladder
I changed treatment entirely and start-
el In on Grape-Nuts And cream for
nourishment. I used absolutely noth
Ing but this for about three months. I
slowly Improved until I got out of bed
and began to move about
"I have been Improving regularly
. and now in the past two years have
been working about fifteen hours a
day In the storo and never felt better
In my life.
"During these two yean I have nev
er missed a breakfast of Grape-Nuts
and cream, and often have It two
meals a day, but the entire Breakfast
la always made of' Grape-Nuts and
cream alone.
"Since commencing the use of Grape-
Nuts I have never used anything to
stimulate the action of the bowels, a
thiej I had to do for years, but this
food keeps me regular and In line
abape, and I am growing stronger and
heavier every day.
"My customers, naturally, hate been
Interested and I am compelled to an
swer a great many question about
Grape-Nut.
"Some people would think that
simple dlsb of Grnpe-Nuts and cream
would not carry one through to the
noonday meal, but It will and In the

t pulled hardback out by hand the
first part of August, ltltlO, and have not

My view Is that if rmll:d in Anaut
when the ground Is dry, wh.1t roots
are left In the ground will not sprout.
I'.ut If pulled lit the spring or perhaps
late In tlio fall, what roots are left
will sprout and come up thicker than
ever. There was not a very large
amount of this weed in my pastures.
I think In some places the lurgest
bushes would have to be pulled with a
team.
1 cannot very well tell how much It
would cost, ns It varies so much in dif
ferent fields, but it does not cost so
much that one could not afford to do
the work. I think it can be killed
by mowing two or three years, for
the reason that we never sv It in our

A Benton County subscriber nl;s for
Information regarding nrtichoUis und
their cultivation, lie wants to grow
them for bis bogs. Tbey should be
planted early in tho spring, as early
as the ground can be put in proper ecu
ili.ion, und the planting and cultivation
me much the same us for potatoes.
I':: ees of the tubers are dropped in
rows, three feet apart, and n foot or
more apart in tlio row. Cultivate
shallow und often, till the stalks shade
the ground well enough to prevent
weeds from growing. A peck ought
to plant half an acre, nml If tho land
Is rich the yield should be between 1UD
and 4iltJ bushels per acre. Hut, as the
hogs do the digging, you wiil have to
guess at tho yield.
Tills much can bo said, however, that
plenty of tubers will be left to seed
the ground again nfter the hogs have
done their best. Artichokes are hard
to set lid of when once rooted in tho
soil, but for the purpose you want
them that la no objection. Indiana

To get the best prices for eggs one
must not buy them to sell, but must
have enough bens to supply the de
ma lid. All eggs should be collected
daily, and should not be allowed to re
main unsold for over twenty-four hours.
No stale nest eggs should be used, and
every precaution must be taken that
each customer may never bo disap
pointed. When the confidence of cus
tomers is secured, the matter of good
prices will be settled, as the majority
of persons are willing to pay any price
when they know that the eggs pur
chased are fresh. No one can make a
specialty of supplying fresh eggs un
less ho carefully avoids those eggs
found In stolen nests or In out-of-tbe-vny
places. The reputation for supply
ing choice fresh eggs thust be made, and
no mistakes must occur at any time,
as a single bad egg will deteriorate
the whole In value. Those who puy
extra high prices are not always judges
of the quality of eggs, but they have
faith and reliance in him who supplies
them. Farm and Fireside
Utilizing Old Orrlior.ll.
Tbpre ure many farms in the country
well suited to sheep ruislng which are
not used for that purpose because their
owners raise other crops which are pro
fitable. During a recent trip the writer
passed through a section where sheep
were being raised In old orchards, and
he promptly left the train to Investi
gate. It was found that orchards In
this section had been planted about the
same time, and while they were still
bearing good fruit, they were fast
nearing an ago when tbey would be no
longer profitable. New orchards bad
been set, but instead of abandoning the
old orchards the ground had beea seed
ed down and turned Into fine pusturcs
for sheep, which were doing finely
Not only this, but it was found that the
orchards had taken on new life, and
were making a profit for their owners.
There Is a point In this worth any
one's attention under , similar condi
tions, In some sections sheep raisers
ninko a business of seeding down und
pasturing their orchards, and while
there may bo some question as to the
wisdom of this plan with a compara
lively young and thrifty orchard, thero
ran be no doubt as to Us value lu cases
like that Indicated.

This fat Is fuel In the nnlmnl economy

Here Is some Sensible ndvlce from ft
good farmer who grows draft horses.
lie says:
What I have to say on this subject
Is intended to nppiy to the common
horse raiser the farmer. It Is just
ns necessary In nil classes of business
to know what not to do ns It Is to
know what to do, horscbreedlng not
excepted. The horse for the farmer
is tho draft-bred horse. He Is the only
hors" than can be raised by the farmer
with little trouble ar.d expense, lie
Is in reach of almost every farmer in
the country. It Is a proiltable business
on the farm to raise n'few good colts.
1 say good colts, for it Is Just ns easy
to raise g Hid ones ns poor ones. It Is
Just as easy to raise good horses as
good cattle or good sheep or bogs. It
docs n"t pay to raise poor ones leavo
that for tiie other fellow. The farmers
that raise god stock of nt'.y kind are
the men that select good sires. Select
a sire from one of the pure breeds of
draft horses, rcrcheron, Shire or 1'el
g'an, it matters but little which breed.
It Is only a mutter of choice to tho
breeder himself. Be sure and sire n
good Individual. The better the dam
the better the result. 'Always breed
their produce to a pure bred sire of
the same breed, lu a very short timet
your mares are nil alike nnd of tho
same type and disposition, nil bearing
a family resemblance. You will not
l ave the disposition of the broncho In
cue and the trotting horse In the other,
but you will have a class of horses

Cattle ItljretcrlooalT Djlni.
Subscriber to the Tribune Farmer
writes that mngnzino: "Three weeks
ago I found n big fnt year and a half
old heifer deud In the pasture. She
had Just died. We skinned her, and
there was no mark on her with the ex
ception of some bruised blood around
one ankle. We opened her; her heart
and liver seemed natural. She bad
no blood left lu her body. Had bled
to death. The manure she pased dur
ing the night was full of blood. This
week I found the next best heifer
nearly dead. We got her up nnd tried
to get her home. With help she
staggered along for a couple of rods,
fell down, und was dead In half an
hour. I skinned and opened her; the
heart was slightly spotted. In cutting
some vein a lot of watery looking
blood ran out. The Intestines seemed
full of the same watery looking blood.
She bad a bruised spot on the flunk
the sIko of a Baucer, and tho Joints of
the hind legs bad some bruised blood
in them. This heifer scoured some the
day she died. Her voiding wero very
black looking. She walked borne quite
smart the night before, nnd was lick
ing sal(t with the rest of the cattle, but
was dead by 2 o'clock the next day.
What killed them so suddenly? They
bud no chongo of feed; wero running
on the same pasture all summer. This
is the third mysterious or sudden death
I buve had In my pasture In a littlo
over a year, and I would like to know
if It is poison, or whut it ia that la
killing the rattle."
"Wero it not for the second death In
your herd," replies C. B. Smead, in
tho same paper, "I could with safety
say the first one died with Intestine
hemorrhage, due to the rupture of some
Inrgo blood vessel; but the second one'
dying leads me tojyurd the belief that
there must have been either anthrax
or some irrltuut poison. In cases of
this kind no one can with certainty
tell the exact cause of dentil. Should
you lose any moro you had best call
the attention of your State authorities
to the matter, and have some exam
inations made. You speak of the herd
running on the same pasture year after
year. Now, I desire to call your at
tention to the fact that there may be
acrid poisonous weeds or shrubs there
just the sunie, and that It Is only oc
casionally thnt nn animal will eat
theui and dip. I speak of this, a
many seem to think tbat Inasmuch as
the pasture has been used before, It is
Impossiblo for anyUiiug poluouou to

It Is not nlwnys safe, especially If
Inexperienced In such work, to take
up tender rose plants nt this time of
year. Kveil one "who knows" doesn't
like to do it. If ten roses are wanted to
bloom In tho bouse during the winter,
the plants should be secured In the
spring.' kept in pots nnd given special
treatment toward thnt etui. If the
plants are growing iu tho border, It Is
ns well to keep them growing thriftily,
and when the season comes for pro
tecting them get the best advice you
can from gome special rose grower, and
follow It. In wintering tender roses
outdoors you will find It a good plan
to cover them with nil Inverted sod,
then put tarred paper over them to
keep oil the rain, giving good drainage
so that no water will stand a round the
roots. Of course, this would not be
liecessnry In the case of hard June
roses, but It Is very desirable in the
case of hybrid perpetuals and roses of
about tho same degree of hardiness.
Among the teas there nr? n few per
fectly hardy ever bloomers, but any
rose will be the better for a mulching
of coarse litter or barnyard manure
after the ground freezes. Among the
most desirable hardy ever bloomers Is
the dainty little Chllotllde Soupert, the
plant of which, nt times, li literally

TOt'XO OltCHAItn AND CROPS.
Apple trees set permanently should
stand in rows thirty feet npnrt. How
ever, If you desire to plant early trees
between the rows of lnte trees you
may do so. An early npple tree begins
to bear sooner than the late variety,
Its vitality being exhausted when It
has borne for eight to twelve years.
The late variety Is thou Just beginning
to give the best crops nnd will continue
to do so. At this period In the tree's
life the top has grown nnd spread to
ft considerable extent; but the room
occupied by the early fruit can now
be reserved for the lnte fruit. In rais
ing crops In an orchard, study what
chemical the crop you Intend to plant
will tnke from the. ground. For In
stance, potatoes, onts, wheat and rye
tnke or assimilate the potash from the
ground, thereforo they should not lie
planted in an orchard; the trees need
all the potash they enn get. Corn
takes less potash from the ground
and may be planted. Care should be
taken not to plow Into the roots of the
trees. Cow peas may also be planted
In an orchard. A, nurseryman who
Uvea near us told me be made a prac
tice of planting cow pea ', and In the
fall, when they ripened, he turned his
hogs In. Of course, the hogs root, but
thej smooth the earth down under the
trees so the root are not exposed to
the frost. He consider this method
one of tho best way to cultivate nn
orchard. Small fruit, such a straw
berries, raspberries, etc., mny nlso lis
cultivated In an orchard. Cecil Abel
Todd, in The Epitomlst.
THE BED CKOSS CUB BANT.
The illustration shows a portion of
a stem of the Bed Cross currant, for
which much Is claimed by the Intro
ducer. The variety has not been thor
oughly and generally tested, but is
so promising where It has been tried
tbat It Is worthy of placo lu this de
partment. As seen growing by the
writer, the plants aro extremely vig
orous, bear profusely, and the fruit
I large. One of the strong claims for
the variety Is tbat it is the only cur
rant which may be called sweet, which
Is much in its favor. I like the va
rlcty, and while I prefer o see it more
generally tested' before saying much
regarding It, I consider It most prom
ising and well worthy of testing on a
mail scale anywhere tbat currants
may be grown with success.-Indian-

In many respects the behavior of
the Japanese sets an exnmplo to other
nations regarding themselves as civi

the scrupulous honesty of the Japan

An extraordinary instance of the

To Prevent Disasters.
New Zealand, which tiaA people's
railways, thinks It has tbem now ar
ranged so that they won't kill people.
The state railways have made an in
teresting change in the signaling sys
tem, which It Is thought, will make
collisions Impossible.
For a lone time the block system
has been used, but the "tablet" sys
tem has now been Introduced. No
engine-driver is allowed to leave a sta
tion without a tablet in his possess
ion, and the element of safety rests
on the fact that the machines are so
made that It is Imposslbe for two tab
lets to be out at the same time.
If a driver leaves Auckland for
Newmarket with a tablet, that tablet
bos to be deposited In the machine
at Newmarket before another tablet Is
issued allowing a return train to leave
for Auckland, and tho electrical con
nection between the two stations
makes it impossible to extract a tab
let from the Auckland machine until
the tablet has been put into the ma
chine at Newmarket.
It Is claimed that two trains can
not be on the same section at once,
so that the danger of collisions Is en
tirely done away wltb.
Butcher Girls.
Buroly the development of American
womanhood Is not furthered by the
employment of girls In the capacity
of butchers. In one of the large pri
vate markets of New York all the
meats are sold by pettlcoated butch
ers. These, however, do not use the
knife, cleaver and saw as yet, but
that is what they are coming to. The
transition from angel to butcher is
not to be made too quickly. Men re
duce carcasses to chops, steaks,
roasts, etc., for the girls to sell. A
tremendous saving Is effected. The
girls never give overweight and ac
cept no tips. New York Press.
