Cure for Ivy Poison. —Take one pint 
of peach leaves and one quart of water 
and boil it for five minutes and it is 
ready for use. As soon as it has cooled 
enough to put your hands in it, to wring 
cloths out, apply as hot as you can stand 
it. Repeat until the itching is all gone; 
you can see when it is dead. This is an 
excellent cure, and always convenient 
on a farm. mrs. c. l. f. 
Keeping Meat Without Ice. 
In answer to your question of how 
to keep meat without ice, I will give 
you our method: In our latitude a hole 
in the ground—or well—14 feet deep 
gives a temperature of 44° Fah. We 
have such a well, dug down to the 
water line, which is curbed up with 
plank to prevent it from caving in. The 
well is three feet square and covered 
with screen. It is also covered with a 
roof four feet above the surface of the 
ground. The meat is suspended down 
near the bottom of this well. f. j. b. 
This is a very simple and inexpensive 
thing to do. The temperature eight 
feet under ground is 45 degrees the 
year round. This is as cold as you can 
make the air in a refrigerator with ice. 
Excavate a hole under whatever room 
you wish to locate your refrigerator, 
eight feet deep, the width and breadth 
to depend upon how large sized refrig¬ 
erator you want. I use a round one, 15 
inches in diameter and four feet long. 
If your room is over the cellar, then 
four feet in cellar will suffice, but you 
must wall up to floor above. The hole 
in the ground should be large enough 
to enable you to get down into it if 
necessary to clean. It would be better, 
also, to cement the walls, but not neces¬ 
sary. Your hoisting apparatus may be 
as primitive as you like. Pull up your 
closet with a rope by hand, or rig a 
crank with a ratchet. The hoisting rope 
must be attached to bottom of closet, 
in order to pull it to the level of the 
floor, and a cover to the floor opening 
can be arranged to be pushed up by the 
closet and fall back in place when the 
closet is lowered. You can buy the en¬ 
tire outfit for $20. FRANK HYDE.

My method is to cover chickens with 
the coldest water I can get from the 
well and put pail containing same in a 
cool place in the cellar. Renew water 
if it gets too warm. Of course I would 
not expect to keep them more than two 
days, but from experience I’ve learned 
this to be a better way than to hang 
them up. I think any fresh meat would 
keep the same way. A quantity of meat 
which is intended to last for some time 
may be canned. I shall be glad to hear 
how others keep meat who have no ice. 
MRS. J. M. H. 
R. N.-Y.—On visiting the kitchen of 
a Chinese restaurant we found poultry 
was kept in this way, in zinc pans of 
ice-cold water, frequently changed as it 
grew tepid. 
Corn Chowder. —This is very good. 
Two slices salt pork cut fine and fried 
to a nice brown with two onions cut 
fine. Cut four potatoes in little squares 
and boil five minutes, then drain and 
rinse in cold water. Put potatoes in 
kettle with pork and onions (fried) 
and add one pint of water; boil hard, 
then add one pint of green corn cut 
from cob. When all is cooked add one 
pint of milk, salt and pepper and serve 
hot. MRS. B. B. B. 
Peanut Canapes.—Pass a cupful of 
unsalted peanut meat through the meat 
chopper as often as may be necessary 
to insure there being no large pieces. 
Put into a bowl, with a dash of cayenne 
and another of black pepper, a tea¬ 
spoonful of salt, a couple of sardines, 
and chop all together. Then add 
enough good tomato catsup to make a 
paste. Spread the mixture on slices of 
hot buttered toast and serve.
