ValnrU rnmiruntrallnna from ll parion who are
tntprrntM in mattara iroerlj- bi'loiiMiiiif li t:iin rtr
ipartnwllt. How to Cook Rice.
Mr. 'KM. Thurlwr, f New Vork,
writing from Japan to ihe "Amertmn
flrorirr," gives the following Recount of
the JttpuncKO method uf cooking rice :
Hire here l worth from $1 .50 to $1.75
per jilcul of l.'lit pounds, or about one
and one-eighth to one and three-eighth
cents per pound; at first thought it
seems n If there might be a profit to
import it Into the United Htutes, but
our duty of two and ft half cents per
pound, together with freight,- limuiiuieo
and premium on gold, brings It up to a
figure where there is no margin. They
know how to cook rloe here, though,
and for the benefit of grocers and con
Mimers in the United states, I investi
gated the matter. Only jut enough
cold water is poured on to prevent the
rice from hurtling to the bottom of the
pot, which has aclose-fliting cover, ami,
with a moderate Are, the rice is steamed
rattier than boiled, until it is nearly
done ; then the cover is taken ofT, the
surplus nlofttii and moisture allowed to
escape, and the rice turns out a mass of
snow white kernels, each separate from
the others,"and as much superior to the
soggy mans we usually get in the
United (-Hates, as a fine mealy potato is
to the water soaked article. I have
seen something approaching this in our
southern states, but I do not think even
there they do it as skillfully as it is done
here, and in the northern states hut very
few persons understand how to cook
rice properly. I am sure that if cooked
as it is here, the consumption of this
wholesome and delicious cereal would
largely increase in America.
Setting Trees.
The art of making fruit and other
trees grow and thrive, lies In a few brief
rules, as follows :
1. Dig them up with great care, re
taining a large proportion of their roots ;
and any roots mangled, to be cut oir at
the mangled ends smoothly with a sharp
knife.
2. To be kept in the shade, if M out
the same day they are dug up. If not
set the same day, dig a trench in your
garden deep enough to receive the oots,
pack in the trees side by side as clobely
as posflble, with the tops touching the
ground, then cover the roots a foot deep
with soil, treading and packing it
around the roots ; and If the trees are to
remain a few days, it would bo well to
cover their tops with any coarse litter to
shado them from the sun.
f 3. When set, trim the trees according
to the extent or quantity of roots they
have, by shortening in the branches
and by removing a superfluous branch
here and there. From one-third to one-
half of the top of a tree, when reset,
should always be shortened in.
4. Pig holes of ample size, so that all
the roots will be in their natural, hori
zontal position ; and place the surface
oil by itself, to be first used around the
roots, and the subsoil on top. Pack the
earth firmly among the roots, and be
fore the holes are entirely filled up,
turn half a pail of water into each, and
wait a few hours to finish filling them.
5. No manure should be put among
the roots but it may be placed over them,
near the surfaceof the ground. A mulch
of barnyard litter around the trunks of
the trees is very good toward, warding
off the effects of a drouth.
Ice Cream without either Cream or Ice.
Take 3 eggs, 1 quart of milk, 1 teaoup
full sugar. Tut the milk upon the stove
to boil ; beat up the yolks of the eggs
with the sugar until thoroughly mixed
and light; then pour into the milk,
and boil until the compound slightly
thickens. ' Then set it .out to cool.
When thoroughly cold, flavor with
vanilla to your taste, and then add the
whites of the eggs first beating them to
annowy froth. Your icecream is then
made ; s-t it out in the cold and let it
freeze. It will not become solid, even if
not touched ; but a little stirring up two
or three times while freezing will make
it lighter. Of course this can only be
made in freezing weather. But, when
the weather is not cold enough to freeze
it, all you have to do is, drop the white
froth upon the top of the compound,
i instead of mixing J and then you have
"Float," one of the most delightful des
serts that can be made.
ftjr Feeding hens with fat occasionally
will cause them to lay during the win
ter. -Mix hog's lard with dough is the
rule ; a piece of lord about the size of
walnut given to a hen after eheha been
broken up from sitting will start her V
Jaylng agsln.
