Winter Sheep Feeds.
As indicated by the makeup of its stomach, the sheep is an animal designed for the consumption of rough feeds, such as various sorts of hay and fodder. To keep up the fertility of our soil and to keep our land clean, it is necessary to grow hay crops containing some clover in rotation with crops that may be cultivated, such as fodder or shock corn. Such hay feeds have no particular market value, and should be valued according to the cost of producing them. Grains have a market value, and may be disposed of. A dollar invested in producing rough feeds will produce more feed than a dollar invested in grain at market price. Rough feeds, therefore, should be grown and used as feed for sheep. Breeding ewes, if In fair condition when put Into winter quarters In the fall, are sufficiently prepared for their work by a gain of from 15 to 25 pounds per head. This gain allows for the development of the unborn lamb and the wool crop. Rations to make the ewe gain slightly and yet keep her thrifty, must be carefully made. Some rough feeds contain considerable fibre. With them is is necessary to feed succulent or oily feeds. For example, with oat straw, timothy or oat hay, roots or oil cake should be fed. With clover, which is naturally laxative in es feet, such a supplement is not needed. Exercise for the ewes,, regularity in reeding, watering and salting, are factors that count in sheep raising. A few rations that have been fed to ewes in lamb with good results follow. They are the dally feed per 100 pounds live weight: L Second crop clover hay alone, 3.5 to 3.7 pounds. 2. Corn fodder in which are nubbins. 3.7 pounds. 3. Second crop clover hay, LB lb.; com fodder, 1 Jb.; oats and com 8 lb. 4. Second crop clover hay, 1.8 lb.; roots, 1.5. lb.; shelled corn, 0.3 lb. 5. Second crop clover hay 2.5 Ib.; barley, 0.55 lb. 6. Com fodder fc6 lb.; roots, 1.5 lb.; oats and com, 0.3 lb. 7. Oat hay, 1.5 lb. and O.T of a lb. of grain composed of barley, 98 parts, flaxseed, 2 parts. 8. Oat straw, 2 lb.; roots 1.8 lb. and 0.6 of a polmd of grain com posed of oats and bran equal parts D.

To the woman who cleans and pel* lobes her own shoes, nothing to more useful than the ‘polishing glove.* It to made In the form of a mitt The palm side to sheepskin, with the woolly side out to form a polishing sarface; the back of the mitt la a place of leather. After you have carefully anointed your shoes with shoe paste or polish and let it dry thoroughly, slip on the mit and polish with a wffl. In a moment your shoos wffi be aMtoIng teMly. _ ———k? • r- ■ ■■■

In Kitchen and Pantry
Recipes. Iced Fig Pudding—Cook half a cupful of rice in milk until soft, then press It through a sieve, and to the puree thus obtained add the beaten yolks of two eggs and a cupful of powdered sugar, stirring well until thoroughly blended, then add one teaspoonful of vanilla'extract, one pint of whipped cream, and half a pound of finely minced figs. Turn into freezer and freeze hard, serving it molded In croquette forms, resting on small squares of sponge cake. Cocoa Leopard Cake—Take two thirds of a cup of batter, two cups of sugar, four eggs, one cup of cold water, three cups of flour, two teaspoons of cream of tartar and onp of soda. Take out of the dough, and add three teaspoons of cocoa and a little vanilla. Flavor the light part to taste and put in the pan in layers, first light, then dark, or dot the dough around in spots Of course baking powder ean be used if preferred but there are some cooks who still cling to the old methods. Cheese Custards.—Butter some small cups thoroughly, and cut some thin slices of bread and butter into dice, arranging them around the sides of the cups, scatter grated cheese over all. Make a custard with the yolks of two eggs and three fourths of a pint of milk and the whites of the two eggs beaten stiff; fill up the cups and bake in a alow oven till firm. Garnish with chopped parsley. Cornmeal Crackers.—Put one pound of cornmeal into a basin and work in two tablespoonfuls of warmed Tat or butter, then mix in half a pound of sugar and pour in gradually half a breakfast cupful of milk, and add enough wheat flour to form a stiff dough. After kneading well, allow to stand for two or three hours in a warm place. Take up small pieces of the dough about the size of a walnut, shape them like shells, brown them in boiling fat and serve on a dish with a folded napkin.
For the Housewife Things to be fried often stick to the pan if new. To prevent this scour the pan thoroly with salt, rinse well, and then dry. Paste printed faces cut from pictures of children found in magazines upon the rag dolls. The little tots will like them better than the expressionless faces usually seen on rag dolls. When a face gets soiled or worn a new one can easily be put on. A simple method of keeping the hands and nails in good order is to have a lemon, insert the fingers and turn them round and round in the pulp. This will tend to prevent the skin from growing up around the nails and hiding the white crescent which should always appear at the base of the nail. After washing the hands well in warm water and soap, the skin surrounding the nails should be pushed down by the fingers, or better still by a blunt bone instrument made for the purpose. Health Notes.' Anything which soothes the nerves will, as a rule, induce sleep. A light supper taken Just before going to bed is often helpful. It is well to have a glass of milk standing by the bed. If wakefulness comes, this should be sipped very slowly. Lack of sufficient ventilation in a room often causes sleeplessness. But the air should never be permitted to blow directly on a bed. A bed should never be placed facing the light, for this hurts the eyes and affects the nerves. One of the best remedies for a nervous woman is to take a hot bath just before going to bed. The body should be immersed for fifteen minutes in Water that is hot without being exhausting.
Some Cake Hints. A good pinch of salt improves any cake. Half water Instead of milk makes a lighter cake. If your cake rises in a mountain in the middle it is because your dough was too thick. If it goes down in the middle your dough was too rich. The cause of large holes in cake is too much baking powder. To sprinkle flour in greased pans prevents cake from sticking. A pan of water in the bottom of the oven keeps the bottom of a cake from burning. A paper over the tin keeps the top from burning. What a Tint Does. Light blue makes blonde complexions look ashen. Dark blue sets off a blonde complexion in high relief by supplying a suitable background. * Blue is unbecoming to a brunette, unless her cheeks be florid. If she be sallow it makes her face look tawny. Red heightens the effect of pale brunette beauty. Yellow is highly becoming to a pale brunette, especially in artificial light. It softens an olive skin and gives it a creamy tint.
Piccalilli I find in making plccailli to cook in clear water after draining over night before putting in vinegar. and spices |g a great improvement

Recipes. Curried Eggs—Melt one tablespoon of butter, blend in one tablespoon of flour mixed with one teaspoon of curry powder; add slowly one cup of white stock; season with one-half teaspoon of onion juice and one-half teaspoon salt and stir until smooth and thick.

Cream of Asparagus Soup—Cut off the very tips of asparagus stalks. Cut the remainder of the stalks into halfinch lengths and boil. Put the tips In a wire strainer and when the stalks have been boiling in salted water for half an hour steam the tips over the stalks for another half hour. Then press the stalks through a vegetable press with the water in which they were boiled—it should be only enough to keep them from burning. Mix with hot milk, thicken slightly with cornstarch or flour mixed smooth in a little cold milk, season with salt and paprika, add a teaspoon of butter, add the steamed tips and serve. Omelet. Beat whites and yolks of eggs separately, one egg for each person; into the yolks stir milk and flour —one teaspoon of flour and one tablespoon of milk for each egg used; salt Grease a frying pan well after having out the whites of the eggs into mixture; as it begins to cook on the bottom, cut in two and lift it around the edges to let the uncooked mixture run under the part that Is cooked. A change from the usual omelet Is made by putting through the meat chopper ham or bacon that has been cooked, heating It, spreading over one-half after it is cooked and laying the other half on to it like a sandwich.
Vegetable Soup. One-fourth of a cabbage chopped fine, two carrots, two small turnips, three onions, one cup of rice. Add the rice to two gallons of. soup stock and boil two hours, then add the vegetables and boil longer. ‘ String any spare buttons you may have on a cord, that they may be easy to get when you want them. •
Notes and Comment
Of Interest te Wemea Readers — ■ S——-
HOT LUNCHES FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN The hot school lunch is rightly coming to its own and gaining the attention it should have. The growing boy and girl are always ravenously -hungry and as one mother expressed it “have a cavity without a bottom." School days have come and with them the same difficult problems of school lunches. Fortunate is the mother whose children attend school where a warm lunch is served to them at noon. Those who have not yet reached this joint should know that it does not require a complete expensive kitchen outfit. If necessary the greatest economy can be used. A small alcohol burner can be purchased for fifty cents. With this as a basis and two or three kettles and pans, a few utensils as a knife and fork and spoon of various sizes, one nourishing hot dish can be prepared each day with very little trouble to the teacher and practically no expense to the children. Each child brings knife, fork, spoon and cup from home. Schools that have hot lunches have proved that the children do better w ork. The grown ups all know what an addition to a cold lunch is a cup of hot coffee or tea. A cup of hot cocoa, a bowl of hot soup or something warm means just as much to a child on a cold day. With good dainty sandwiches as a foundation, a little fruit, some simple cakes and the addition of the warm dish the child is well fed at noon. On the farm where there are so many nice vegetables and Quantities of good pure milk, the mothers are willing to take iurns In providing the necessary materials for each day’s dish. There Is a great variety of dishes that may be prepared. Thes need not be soup one day and cocoa the next, then start over again. Eggs are easily prepared in a great many different ways. Potatoes, peas, carrots and other vegetables are easily boiled and creamed. Rice can be boiled and eaten with sugar and milk, mixed with tomatoes or mixed into a boiled custard. Rice can easily be cooked without sticking to the kettle when a large quantity of water is used. Macaroni can be mixed with tomatoes and cheese. Plain boiled custard is easily made and always tastes good. Hot milk thickened the least bit, seasoned with salt and pepper and with bread broken into it always tastes good on a cold day. All kinds of cereals and corn meal and graham mush are easily prepared. I have known, one or two schools where the boys made a fireless cooker by taking either a box or a barrel and packing the bottom and sides thoroughly with hay. The cereal and mush troubles are all solved with such ingenious boys around. For birthdays and special occasions any mother would gladly boll a chlcl en, remove the bones and cut into small pieces. It can then be taken to school and creamed. This is a luxury. The hot lunch is simple and practical. No school is too poor or too small to have it.
For the Housewife To keep kitchen stoves clean and bright without blackening wipe them off every day with clean water and a little soap. A housewife noted for her -excellent mince pies, says that this is the secret of her success. To a gallon crock of mince meat she adds a pint of preserved citron. This imparts a delicious flavor. A simple method of making iron work proof against rust is to heat it until it is almost red hot and then brush it over with linseed oil. This makes a varnish which, unlike ordln ary paint or enamel does not chip off. If by any chance anything being cooked in a saucepan burns, fill it, when the cooking is done, with cold water to which a good spoonful of salt has been added, and leave to soak till next day. Then heat slowly and by the time the water bolls the burnt portion will have been loosened and will come off quite easily. Pictures hung by a single wire have an annoying way of getting uneven, on account of the slipping of the wire on the picture hook. This can sometimes be avoided by first hanging the picture face to the wall and then turning it around. The single turn this makes in the wire near the hook prevents slipping. Get some bitter apple from the chemist, crush it, and sprinkle It among the clothes, you will' find it the finest thing on record for keeping moths away from everything, and one can use garments at a minute's notice, as there is no odor left by bitter apple. Irons should be kept in a dry place and not allowed to cool on the stove. They should never be put right on to the fire to heat, as this spoils the smooth surface. When heated over gas, a sheet of block tin er iron should <be placed over the flame, as moisture which forms rust settles on the irons 1 if they come into direct contact with . the gas.
Never bake a sponge cake in a 'iteased tin or one that has ever been greased, for to be light the cake must cling to the pan while baking.
