Gold is good In its place: but living, patriotic men are better than gold. J. R. Lowell. GOOD SEASONING. There seems to be no difference of opinion in regard to the value of properly seasoning food. A plain dish, with an artist's hand in sea soning, becomes some thing unusual and de lightful, while all the rich foods in the world put together with no care as to combination or of proper seasoning will be "a mixture and a mess." We must revive the old-fashioned herb garden of our grandmothers If we are to realize the time zest of well preserved herbs. She realized that her meats, soups, as well as cakes, doughnuts and crullers, lacked charm withoufrthe well-chosen herbs or spices. She did not know that when she used a bit of parsley to garnish her platter of cold meat she was contributing to the health of her family as well as their artistic sense. Parsley acts upon the kidneys, assisting in the elimina tion of waste. Some of the most inexpensive sea sonings that may be grown in the kitchen garden, and will prove a de light to see growing as well as to use in winter to increase the pala tability of various dishes, are the fol lowing: Parsley, mint, dill, tarragon, sage, thyme, marjoram, chervil, horse radish, mustard, celery (celery tips dried), caraway seed, and mushrooms, dried. To these we add curry, mace, nutmeg, cloves, mixed pickle spices and hay leaves. Mint is used with lamb in different salads and as an addition to a re freshing drink. i Sage as a seasoning in stuffings for pork roasts or poultry or ham. Added to cornmeal mush for frying or as a seasoning for string beans. Thyme and marjoram, with fowL squab or fish and in dressing for meats and with bolled beans. Chervil as a garnish for salads and meats, green mustard sprinkled over lettuce or any salad, horseradish as n relish for meat and a seasoning for pickles as well as sauce for fish. Curry adds zest to various meat dishes or served with rice or cabbage, cauliflow er, carrots or onions. * Keep the Land at Work. Let us not this season-as we often do-waste all the work of cultivation we give to the early vegetable crops, by letting the land grow up in grass and weeds as the crops ripen. But rather let us keep the tools of cultivation running a little later, then, without further working of the land, plant other crops that will mature better in the fall or during the winter. Late corn, turnips, parsnips, rye, oats, etc., may well follow the old pota to crop or the land may be seeded to grass, clover or al faifa at little extra expense, and these crops go in under almost ideal conditions. Good land is required to produce fine crops of Irish potatoes and it will be almost a sin this year to let rich land-that is already in good seed bed condition-grow up in wild grass and weeds. We often work the potato land just as the plants are maturing and plant corn between the rows, then while the potatoes are being dug the corn is sprouting.-Progressive Farmer.
