Left-Over Mutton.

Cut some rather thick slices from the remains of a leg of mutton, remove the fat and skin and trim them so that they are the same size. About an hour before they are required place them in a deep dish with a few slices of onion between the pieces of meat. Sprinkle a little black pepper and nutmeg over them and cover with oil and vinegar mixed together in the proportion of three tablespoonfuls of oil® to one of vinegar. Season a small quantity of fine white breadcrumbs with celery salt and pepper, and mix together with onion and minced parsley. Wipe the slices of meat when they are taken from the pickle, dip them into beaten egg and cover them thickly with the prepared crumbs. Allow the crumbs to harden on the slices of meat for ten or fifteen minutes and fry quickly in plenty of boiling fat Drain and serve with spinach or cabbage and a piquant sauce.

IMPORTANCE OF SEED

X. _ *' lir I POTATO GROWER PAYB LITTLE ATTENTION TO QUALITY. . * .i w Comparatively Few Growers Give Sufficient Thought to Elimination of Diseased and Unproductive Strains of Tubers. * -- (By WILLIAM STUART,) . Of the many causes whicji operate to produce a low average potato yield in this country, poor seed is thought to be a very important one. The American potato grower pays too little attention to his seed potatoes, The European growers, especially those of Gc6at Britain and Germany, pay very strict attention to the quality and quantity of the seed they use. This has led to a differentiation of the potato industry into seed and crop specialists. The seed specialist makes a business of producing high-quality seed, while the crop specialist pro-

duces a high-grade table potato. No such differentiation at least to the same extent, occurs in thip country. It is true that in certain sections we a well-developed seed-pota-to-|rowing industry, but comparatively few growers in these sections are paying sufficient attention to .the elimination of diseased and unproductive strains or to keeping the variety grown free from mixture with other varieties. It is believed, however, that the time is ripe for demanding a better grade of seed potatoes than is now generally obtained from either seedsmen or growers. The question of what constitutes good seed is a vital one, and possibly no two s * persons would fully agree in every particular upon this point. It would seem, however, that the following factors play an important role: Pure seed from productive plants, not over ripe, uniform in size and shape, Arm and sound, with first sprouts just showing at planting time. Seed of such quality, if furnished suitable cultural conditions, will seldom fall to produce a remunerative crop. A conservative estimate of the Increase that

No. I—Strong Units. No. 2—Yield From Tuber-Units Shown In No. 1. No. 3—Yield the Following Beason From Five of the Beet Tuber-Units In No. 2. might be expected from the use of high-grade seeds is certainly not less than ten per cent. Such an increase, based on the average of the past five years, would amount to over thirtyfour and one-fourth million bushels, having an approximate valuation of $21,000,000.

MACHINE FOR TESTING SEED

Incubator May Be Put to Good Use When Not Wanted for Hatching Egge—Use False Tray. While not in use for hatching, the machine may be used for testing seed by making a false tray of light wood which is filled with sand. The seed should be placed in the sand, covered and kept moist. Keep the temperature up to about 85 degrees, and the seed will germinate in a short time. Even when it is in use for hatching, seeds may be teßted by placing them between damp cloths in a plate, setting the plate under the egg tray in what is known as the,chicken nursery. Plants thus germinated in sand may be transplanted to the hotbed, not only testing the seed for vitality, but utilizing those so tested. „ .

Don’t Destroy Roots.

The roots of a plant spread out farther than its leaves or blades do. In the corn and cotton field they meet and interlap. These roots are essential to plant growth, and should not be Cut off or injured. This is the reason for shallow cultivation. This makes a mulch and holds moisture but does not injure the roots.
