Letters  of  an  Indiana  Farmer 
“Happy  the  man  .  .  . 
Whose  herds  with  milk,  whose  fields  with 
bread, 
Whose  flocks  supply  him  with  attire ; 
Whose  trees  in  Summer  yield  him  shade, 
In  Winter,  fire.’’ 
article — a  camera.  I  never  saw  one  sold 
that  way  before.  We  have  often  wished 
for  one,  to  preserve  some  of  the  fascinat¬

E.  M,  C. 
The  New  Plate 
I  have  always  thought  it  the  ideal  con¬ 
dition.  The  one  sad  part  is  that  the  trees 
which  have  once  yielded  fire  will  never¬ 
more  yield  shade  nor  anything  else.  I 
quote  the  verse  to  strengthen  my  own  be¬ 
lief  in  the  latest  experiment — six  young 
black-faced  ewes.  I  have  wanted  sheep 
all  the  time,  but  didn’t  see  how  they 
could  be  tended.  Just  now  they  are  pas¬ 
turing  with  a  neighbor’s  flock,  but  when 
they  come  home  it  will  be  my  job  to  tend 
them  for  perhaps  three  months.  Before 
the  lambs  come  I  shall  have  a  hand. 
There  is  a  slowly  increasing  interest  in 
sheep  on  some  of  these  corn  farms.  .There 
are  not  very  many  near  here,  but  prices 
are  high,  and  the  men  who  already  have 
sheep  are  buying  more.  There  seems  to 
be  an  idea  that  there  will  be  “something 
doing”  in  the  wool  market  for  some  time. 
The  Quaker  cousins  got  the  paper-mill 
blankets  for  me,  and  I  drove  over  into 
Ohio  yesterday  after  them.  They  are  cu¬ 
rious  things,  tremendously  heavy,  one 
I’m  just  getting  used  to  my  first  new 
plate,  and  as  it  was  made  by  my  own 
brother — a  very  busy  dentist — I  listened 
to  his  advice  with  considerable  attention. 
First,  he  told  me  not  to  keep  it  in 
water  over  night,  it  was  not  good  for  the 
rubber  and  might  warp  it,  hut  to  clean  it 
thoroughly,  wipe  it,  dry  and  put  it  in  a 
safe  place,  I  use  a  small  box,  lined  with 
a  soft  cloth  in  my  top  bureau  drawer. 
He  believes  in  cleaning  the  plates  with 
plain  saleratus  and  water,  notwithstand¬ 
ing  all  advice  to  the  contrary  in  the  ad¬ 
vertisements  of  the  various  tooth  powders 
and  pastes.  ,  Then,  in  the  morning,  wet 
the  plate  thoroughly  in  cold  running 
water,  take  a  good  drink,  keeping  some 
of  the  water  in  the  mouth,  and  put  it 
right  in.  If  the  mouth  is  dry  and  hot, 
it  is  apt  to  bother  a  lot  about  the  suction 
and  dentists  hate  to  make  plates  for  such 
mouths  ;  they  are  so  hard  to  fit. 
He  does  not  believe  in  wearing  the 
plate  over  night  although  it  is  much  done

blanket  weighing  7  or  S  lbs.  One  would 
not  want  many  on  a  bed  !  As  a  matter 
of  fact,  they  are  better  adapted  for  auto 
robes  or  outdoor  sleeping,  being  prac¬ 
tically  windproof  and  almost  waterproof. 
The  colors  vary  somewhat.  Mine  are  a 
soft,  neutral  tint,  much  like  “reindeer.” 
One  was  more  of  a  brown,  with  light  gray 
reverse.  It  looked  like  desirable  material 
for  a  very  heavy  coat.  In  a  damaged 
piece  that  came  off  mine  I  seem  to  see 
moccasins  for  house  wear,  if  I  can  find  a 
pattern.  The  belting  is  sold  by  weight ; 
this  was  30c  per  lb. 
The  frost  came  early  ('Sept.  14),  most 
unfortunately  for  many  things,  already 
held  back  by  a  late,  cool  season.  Since 
then  there  have  been  days  not  only  warm, 
but  hot,  and  warm  rains,  and  the  peppers 
and  beans  that  were  frosted  have  started 
to  grow  again.  There  is  much  talk  of 
corn  that  will  never  be  fit  for  storage  or 
seed.  Ours  was  more  mature  than  some, 
and  is  considered  in  pretty  good  shape.  I 
have  been  potting  a  few  plants  for  Win¬ 
ter.  The  Iloya  slips  sent  me  by  a  R. 
N.-Y.  friend  in  Vermont  are  doing  well. 
Browallia  and  heliotrope  seedlings  that 
struggled  all  Summer  with  drought  and 
cats  should  find  pots  to  themselves  a  reg¬ 
ular  plant  paradise. 
_  The  teacher  across  the  way  is  picking 
his  Jonathans.  I  shall  begin  on  my  De¬ 
licious  tomorrow.  I  hope  we  can  keep 
them  full  flavored  till  Christmas,  but  it 
is  a  tricky  variety  for  Indiana.  We  will 
depend  on  Baldwins  for  late  Winter ;  yet 
we  are  too  far  south,  really,  for  Bald¬ 
wins,  and  I  am  not  planting  any.  I  can’t 
find  a  grower  who  will  endorse,  enthusi¬ 
astically,  any  late  Winter  apples,  but  our 
old  Rome  Beauty  seems  to  have  a-s  few 
faults  as  any.  The  most  beautiful  apples 
on  the  line  of  march  were  Winter  Banana 
— but  they  were  heir  to  all  the  scabs  and 
blotches  of  apple  flesh. 
Auctions  are  numerous  again.  Lula 
and  I  went  to  one  Saturday  and  brought 
home  much  loot;  a  big  skillet  and  an 
enameled  pail,  a  china  pitcher,  nut  picks, 
and  a  pretty  willow  basket,  containing,  in 
an  assortment  of  junk,  one  worth-while 
by  people  in  the  cities ;  it  is  too  heating 
and  the  mouth  grows  soft.  He  said  that 
he  would  as  soon  wear  his  rubber  boots. 
If  canker  persists,  have  a  metal  plate 
made.  My  brother  does  believe  in  wear¬ 
ing  the  plate  constantly  when  awake  and 
not  on  and  off  for  social  occasions,  like 
jewelry. 
The  only  way  to  get  used  to  the  plate 
is  to  wear  it.  Do  not  keep  putting  it  in 
and  out  for  comfort,  because  this  makes 
the  tissues  recede,  the  face  sags,  and  the 
cheeks  cave  in,  giving  a  haggard,  doleful 
expression. 
Also,  be  careful  about  biting,  because 
it  is  only  one-tenth  the  horse  power  of 
the  natural  teeth.  M.  H, 
Two  Recipes  for  Mettwurst 
No.  1. — 11  lbs.  lean  pork,  4  lbs.  beef, 
free  of  bones,  3  lbs.  fresh  bacon,  two 
tablespoons  sugar,  250  grains  salt,  32 
grains  pulverized  white  pepper,  04  grains 
of  saltpeter.  About  seven  yards  casings. 
No.  2. — 6  lbs.  pork,  3  lbs.  beef,  2  lbs. 
fresh  bacon,  175  grains  salt,  10  grains 
pulverized  white  pepper,  20  grains  salt¬ 
peter,  10  grains  sugar. 
Preparation  of  No.  1  and  No.  2  is  alike, 
as  follows :  Cut  meat  into  cubes.  The 
beef  should  bo  passed  through  a  grinding 
machine  six  times,  the  pork  four  times 
and  the  bacon  three  times ;  then  pass  all 
the  meat  through  machine  together  once 
more.  After  this  add  all  the  ingredients 
as  above  stated,  and  knead  well  for  about 
45  minutes.  Then  fill  into  the  prepared 
casings,  which  should  be  pricked  with  a 
sharp  needle  now  and  then  to  let  all  the 
air  escape.  The  sausage  should  be  stuffed 
tight  and  bound  well,  leaving  a  long  string 
at  one  end  with  which  they  may  be  hung 
over  a  stick.  Hang  in  an  airy  place  ( not 
warm)  for  one  day,  after  which  hang  in 
smoke  for  10  to  14  days.
