i el { The Qld Gardener Says: ] This ‘is an excellent time to start & new strawberry bed if the work has not been done be fore. You can buy potted plants it you like, but the quicker you : get them into the ground the better. The potted plants are excellent, but if you already have a_bed that has been bear- ing., all you need do is cut off rooted runners and transplant them. Sometimes these runners root in four or five places, in which case the new plants at the end of the runners are prob- ably the best, although any of the plants can be used. Be .. careful to set them into the ground so that the crowns will be just level with the surface. Beginners often set them too deep or else not deep enough. 7 COLLIE—Male, xable and white.- Apply Wash. Anjal Rescua Leagae, 349 Md. ave. .W. COLLIE—Male, black and white; small size. Apply Wash.

The correct proportion of ice to salt is three level portions of finely chopped ice to one of coarse salt. Fine table salt acts much more slowly than coarse upon the ice. besides being | more expensive. Unless the ice is finely chopped the action of the salt is necessarily much retarded. One may turn the crank forever, but if the salt cannot get at the ice to melt it, the cream will not freeze. A stout burlap bag and a wooden mal- let or axe are sufficent equipment to crush ice, though some people pre- fer to shave the ice with an instru- ment devised for the purpose. A two-quart freezer gives two quarts of cream, but. should not be filled more than two-thirds full, to allow for the expansion.

Answer.—I have no recipe for the “pecan pie” you mention, but here s the other recipe you wish: Lemon Pie Made with Bread Crumbs.—Heat one pint of sweet milk to the boiling point and pour it over one and one- half cups of stale bread crumbs; let it soak for fifteen minutes, then add the well-beaten yolks of two eggs, the juice and grated rind of . two lemons, sugar to suit taste, and a piece of butter the size of a nut; turn this mixture into®a pie pan which has been lined with pastey and slip the pan into a moderate oven for about forty-five minutes, or until firm. Then take the pie out of the oven, spread over it the whites of two 'eggs which have been _stifly whipped and sweetened with two tablespoons of sugar, and return the pie to the oven to brown.
