Moversible Wire Bottom Trays WIill Assure Satisfaction, and May Easlly Be Made by the Men of the House. The evaporator is best for a number of reasons, but where one must dry by e sun there is yot a much better way than spreading out on the house woof or a scaffold of boards. Loss and labor may be saved by Baving wire bottom trays two feet wide and two or three feet long. These trays should be made reversible, which meay be done by having the sides of owo pleces of inch and a quarter lum- Ber nailed together with the wire bot- fom between them. This secures the Bottom and makes a tray an inch and a quarter deep either way it is turned. four of these trays will hold as much as an ordinary family would want to put out at one time, and more ean be had as needed. The wire cloth for the bottom should o galvanized and what is known a8 No. 2 or No, 3 mesh; that is, there are two or three wires to the inch which is close enough to hold fruit. The scaffold is made by setting four posta high enough to be out of danger grom the poultry. Strips of 1 by 4 are palled from one post to the other as high as wanted for the trays to rest 0. The end posts should be set two feet or a little more apart, which will be the proper width of the scaffold, put- ting the other pair of posts as far from these as longth of the scaffold s want- od to be. When the trays are placed on these supports the atr passes up through the @rait, drying it much quicker and more sniformly. The greatest convenience in having the trays I8 when a shower threatens or to protect the half dried fruit from the night dew. The trays may be quickly taken to #belter without disturbing the fruit. It there should be several days of xalny weather the trays should be stacked one on top of the other in the bouse; the air passing between the trays keep the fruit from souring till agaln placed out of doors. i Currants With Ralsins. The combining of ralsins and cur- Jants in a sweet conserve {8 a very Then stir the fruit into it and cook the whole ten minutes. The large “cherry currant,” which does not con- tain many seeds, is best for this pre- serve. Look the fruit over very care fully, as imperfect currants or raisins will ruin the conserve. Yellow Dellicate Cake. One and one-quarter cups flne gran- ulated sugar and one-half cup butter creamed together. Pinch of salt and little more than one-half cup sweet milk. Now add two cups flour, sift with one and one-half teaspoons (level) of baking powder, one table spoon each of lemon and vanilla, Now add three eggs, one at a time, and beat each one into the mixture thor oughly, the eggs to be added the last thing. Lala Rookh, A cooling dessert {s Lala Rookh, which is nothing more than a sher- bet glass filled with any kind of wa- ter ice that has a large spoonful scooped from the center, which s filled just before serving with creme de menthe cordial, brandy or rum. Pineapple or orange ice is especially good with this combination. Smothered Cabbage. Cut a small head of cabbage fine and put it in a pan where meat has been fried. Pour on a half cupful of aweet milk, season with a half teaspoonful of salt and two sprinkles of pepper, and butter about the size of an egg. Cover tightly and let stand on the back of the stove about fifteen or twenty minutes. Towels Cleaned. Dingy towels may frequently be re- stored to normal whiteness by putting them In a kettle of cold water, adding white soap shavings and lemon juice and letting come slowly to a boil. Rinse in tepid water, then blue water and hang in the sun. To Mend Umbrella, For mending & tear in an umbrella narrow silk ribbon is excellent. Since both the edges are selvages it {s an easy matter to stitch it to the um- brella. Supper Dish. Rounds of toast buttered and spread with sardine paste before a large spoonful of welsh rabbit is poured over make a good supper dish. So does Spanish omelet served on hot buttered old-fashioned idea that was populaT | gpaghett!. with our grandmothers. The follow- ing way of preparing this sweet comes | from a Duchess county household, where it has been in use for several generations: Have ready seven pounds each of currants and of sugar, ®ne pound of seeded ralsins and three qlots of currant julce. This julce To Cook Bacon. When next cooking bacon try put- ting It in a sleve and pouring bolling water over It; then cover for a few moments with cold water, drying the bacon on a cloth before putting into | the sizzling frying pan. nations or by Themselves, There are two kinds of radishes; one is round and small and red, the other is long and tapering and streak- ed with white. Both when eaten raw should be chosen young, as their flavor is then the mildest. They should al- ways be served crisp and cold. If they are prepared about an hour be- | fore they are to be eaten they can be ! kept in ice water until they are served, and then served in a bed of cracked fce. The little red round ones can be cut in rose fashion. To do this first make two deep cuts at right angles to each other across the radish, not cutting quite through to the stem end. Then with a sharp steel knife loosen I the skin on the four quarters. The ice water will curl the little points of skin back like rose leaves. Individual radish dishes are a now elty seen on the tables of the up-to- date hostess. These dishes consist of a small saucer on one side of which a little salt cellar is fastened. They are made of engraved glass with silver mountings and are sold for $3 each. Young radishes sliced with the skins on are a good addition to vegetable soup. If they are used simply for seasoning, they can be put in the soup pot whole, but if they are to be left in the soup they should be daintily sliced or diced. Radishes can be used in many ways for salad. One way calls for three bunches of sound, red radishes. Put them in cold water on the ice for an ihour. Ten minutes before serving time wipe them dry and cut them in fine clices. Slice also two small onfons. Put them in layers in a salad bowl with minced parsley and dress them with oil and vinegar. Another radish salad calls for a bed {of crisp, white lettuce leaves. On ;m. small, quartered radishes are ar- ! ranged and the whole is dressed with French dressing and a little onion Juice.

I Put four pints of cold water into a | saucepan, add half a cupful of washed prunes, half a cupful of sliced apples, half a cupful of seeded raisins, half a cupful of currants and a small plece of cinnamon stick. fruit 1s tended, replacing the water as it boils away.
