VEAL DISHES,
Veal should he at least six weeks
old to be wholesome, one reason that
lt is so often haid to digest, ls because
it is imperfectly masticated.
Veal With Tomatoes.-Cut two and
a half pounds of veal In cubes and salt
them. Heat in a kettle some sweet
fryings or fresh butter. Put in the
meat and brown; add an onion, two
tomatoes, one carrot and a piece of
celery root or stalk, all cut fine. Add
four tablespoonfuls of sour cream, a
tablespoonful of vinegar and let the
whole simmer for an hour or two.
Just before serving add a tablespoon
f?ll of flour cooked with a little
cream.
A veal breast makes a nice roast.
Cut slits in the meat next the bone,
to make pockets to hold the rtr.ffing,
and roast with a slice or two of salt
pork laid over the meat while roast
ing.
Veal Goulash.-Kat three pounds of
veal into pieces and salt them. Fry
brown In a kettle with a little butter,
with two sliced onions. Add a tea
spoonful of paprika, dredge w'th flour,
add stock or bolling water and sim
mer for an hour or two.
Veal Loaf.-Take three pounds of
}ean veal, one and a half pounus of
uncooked ham, turee eggs well bea
ten, three crackers rolled fine, one
teaspoonful of salt, half a teaspoon
of pepper, three tablespoonfuls of
cream, three tablespoonfuls of bolling
water. Mix all together thoroughly;
grease the pan wei! and pack in the
meat Bake two and a half hours.
Serve either hot or cold.
Veal Glace.-This is a good hot
weather dish. Cook two pounds of
veal two hours in a pint of water in a
fireless cooker; season well and re
move. Cut off all the meat from the
bones and put lt through the meat
chopper. Soak a half a box of gela
tin In a cup of cold water. Add the
Juice of a lemon, and when it begins
to harden stir in the veal. Place In
a mold and set away to cool. This
may be served in slices on lettuce as
a salad.

THE CHERRY SEASON.
Try this method of putting up a doz
en quarts of cherries, and see how
easy lt will be when compared to the
old way of stewing oneself when
cooking the fruit See that the jars
are all perfect, covers and rubbers
In good condition. Sterilize the jars
by putting them into cold water and
bringing the water to the bolling
point. Fill the Jars with the fresh, un
cooked cherries, and when a dozen
Jars are filled, pour over a hot sugar
sirup as rich as one desires for sweet
ness, seal the cans and put a dozen or
more into a boiler that ls half full of
boiling water. A long-handled skim
mer may be used to rest the Jar on
when putting into the water. After
all are in cover to the depth of four
inches over the cans with bolling
water; put on the cover and throw
over the boiler three or four thick
nesses of old carpet. Let them stand
twenty-four hours and remove to the
fruit closet You will have fruit of ex
ceptional color and flavor if these di
rections are carefully followed.
Cherries are delicious preserved,
and may be used as a relish. Spiced,
as any fruit ls spiced, is another addi
tion to the winter's store.
Cherry pie ls the pie par excellence,
and If care is used in fitting a paper
funnel in the opening when put to
bake not a drop of the precious Juice
will be wasted.
Cherry Dumplings.-A delicious
cherry pudding may be made with a
cup of flour and two teaspoonfuls of
baking powder and a little salt sifted
together. Add enough milk to make
a batter not too thin, and drop a ta
blespoonful of lt into buttered pudding
cups, then a few cherries and more
batter. Put the cups into boiling
water and cook fifteen minutes. Serve
with cherry sauce or cream and sugar.

COTTON SEED CROP
Results Obtained in Several
Southern States in 1910.
Proven Conclusively That tho Yields
of Cotton and Corn May Be
Doubled by Carrying Out Dem
onstration Methods.
The late Dr. S. A. Knapp, then spe
cial agent in charge of the farmers'
co-operative demonstration work, com
piled the following results obtained by
the thousands of demonstrators in
Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia,
Louisiana and Mississippi in the year
of 1910:
The demonstrators in Alabama made
an average of 1220.2 pounds of seed
cotton and 4L5 bushels of corn per
acre. The state average for 1910 in
cotton in Alabama was 474 pounds
and In corn 18 bushels. The demon
strators in Arkansas made an aver
age of 914.3 pounds of seed cotton and
36.9 bushels of corn per acre. The
state average in cotton in Arkansas
was 525 pounds and in corn 24 bushels.
The demonstrators In Florida made
an average of 572 pounds of seed cot
ton and 23 bushels of corn per acre.
The state average in cotton in Flori
da was 339 pounds and in corn 13
bushels. The demonstrators in Georgia
made an average of 1299.4 pounds of
seed cotton and 35.4 bushels of corn
per acre. The state average in Geor
gia was 522 pounds of col+on and 14.5
bushels of corn. The demonstrators
in Louisiana made an average of
781.2 pounds of seed cotton and 35.2
bushels of corn. The state average in
Louisiana was 39 0 pounds of seed cot
ton and 23.6 bushels of corn per acre.
The demonstration farmers in Missis
sippi in 1910 made an average of
943.7 pounds of seed cotton and 42.7
bushels of corn per acre. The state
average was 519 pounds of seed cotton
and 20.5 bushels of corn per acre.
The above results prove conclusive
ly that the yields of cotton and corn
may be doubled by carrying out the
demonstration methods.
The illustration shows Mr. R. S.
Wilson, state agent in Mississippi for
the farmers' demonstration work. He
is holding a part of a cotton root. The
part of the root that he is holding ls
nine feet long. This cotton r x>t was a
lateral root near the surf ac J of the
soil.
Pure-Bred Draft Horses.
Pure bred draft horses are always
In big demand at good prices. Many
pure bred stallion col's are sold at
$1,000 as three-year-olds, while pure
bred mares bring from $300 to $500.
A really good horse is never of a
bad color, but some colors, such as per
fectly dappled grays, pure blacks and
blue roans command better prices
than others.
If English farmers can afford to use
pure-bred draft horses that are worth
$500 for ordinary farming operations
why cannot pur farmers afford them
as well?
Do not thange the work horses from
grain to grass to suddenly. In fact,
horses on heavy work every day s'.ould
have verj little grass.
Hog Raisers' Mistakes.
There is a great mistake made by
many hog raisers who give their
brood sows corn and water for a diet;
they think because they look well that
such foods are all right, but they
wonder why their sows have trouble
giving birth to their offspring, and
many times eat them.
Good Butter Making.
Good butter-making must begin with

j He further says that he believes that
this is only thr-? beginning, and that

pounds of milk and 1,000 pounds of
butter will soon be discovered.

Chicagoans Protest Against Rai
ing of Historic Landmark.
Groat Pile of Masonry Whloh Bur*
vlved the Disastrous Fire of 1871
Very Rich In Romance and
Tradition.
Chicago.-Shall the oldest landmark
of the north side, a spot rich in tradi
tion and romance, the only remaining
monument of the time of Chicago's
victory in her greatest struggle for
life, be profaned by a city's commer
cialism and destroyed in the name of
economy?
Shall "Jae silent sentinel of stone,
the ivy-mantled tower where sweet
hearts were wont to meet, where chil
dren played and heard wondrous sto
ries of other days', be reduced to a
shapeless mass of stone and scattered
all over the city?
Is It not possible to preserve the
picturesque gray tower of the old Chi
cago avenue pumping station to pos
terity to aerve as a memorial of the
great fire of 1871?
These are a few of the questions
raised by scores of Chicagoans who
had read of the plan to tear down the
tower of the Chicago avenue pumping
station in the Interest of municipal
economy. This ancient landmark
stands at the foot of "Millionaire row."
North of the famous old structure are
the homes of the rich. Since 1867 the
tower has stood as a constant re
minder of the permanence of the work
of the city's founders.
Members of the Chicago Historical
society joined in the storm of protest
against tearing down the tower. They
were unanimous in the sentiment that
Chicago Water Tower.
this landmark should be preserved
and made one of the show places of
Chicago.
When Chicago began to burn, the
evening of October 8, 1871, terror
stricken citizens fled north to the
tower in the belief that the fire would
be confined to a narrow district The
following day the fire reached the
tower and roared about its base, de
stroying the machine shop and adja
cent buildings. The pumping engines
were stopped and the walls of the en
gine house began to crumble. The
roof and floors of the other buildings
gave way, but the tower stood firm
while the flames raced northward.
The great pile of masonry was pre
served when repairs were made, and
since that day has been rich In tradi
tion and romance.
Many stories of the tower deal with
the romances of some of the richest
sons and daughters of Millionaires'
row. An eloping couple Is said to
have been married at the top of the
tower. In the days of old thousands
of young men and maidens wandered
up the stairway to the summit to
plight their troth.
The doors of the tower were locked
long ago. The only magic key that
will unlock the door Is In the keeping
of the city authorities.
The city authorities hold now that
disintegration has begun and that the
tower must go. This theory ls denied
by members of the Chicago Historical
society, who declare that the tower
was built to stand 10,000 years and
that there Is no danger of Its crum
bling for generations. Hundreds of
visitors gaze In awe at the old tower
every day.
