Keeping Plants In Health and Beauty
More a Matter of Watchfulness
Than Expense—Pests to
Contend with.
The yellow day Illy Is a hardy plant,
that, while found In old gardens, Is
comparatively rare In new ones. It
deserves general cultivation. The flow-
ers are borne very freely and flower-
ing Is continued for a very long period.
The flowers are of a clear canary yel-
low. Its foliage Is very luxuriant and
on this account alone is well worth
growing. It should be disturbed as
little as possible. Propagation Is af-
fected by division of the roots. There
is no difficulty attending the cultlva-
j tlon of this most delightful plant.
(live it a rich soil and keep it free
! from weeds. To this plant age lias
j brought only added value and beauty.
I One of the most delightful of flower-
' lng plants Is the jasmine revolutum.
I It bears small clusters of starry flow-
I era of a rich yellow and these are full
of a very rich, heavy fragrance of a
peculiar kind. Its foliage is a dark
green, and furnishes a pleasing back-
ground for the flowers. To grow It
well give a loamy soil In which there
Is sand enough to make it light, and
to make it rich. Water freely while
growing and blooming. It also likes
plenty of sunshine. It can be trained
about the window, or to the rafters of
a greenhouse and Is most effective.
It grows with Jasmine grandlflorum,
which Is much like It in all respects
save that of color, the latter being
pure white and thus a fine effect is
produced—an effect worth striving for.
There is no plant more subject to
the green fly than the cinerrarla. If
there Is one about the place It Is sure
to find one of these plants, and in
a short time they will be completely
covered with the pests. If the plant
is not attended to at once It will be-
gin to show yellow leaves and in a
short time the plant will be ruined.
Nothing is so effective in ridding
the plants of the pests as Is fumiga-
tion with tobacco leaves. It Is some-
times a bother to fumigate plants, but
still if you love the flowers you will
be willing to put yourself to some
trouble for them.
PRESIDENT GOMPERS ON THE LABOR PRESS
The labor press deserves more loyal support and
greater encouragement. The circulation of bona fide la-
bor papers and journals merits an increased patronage
so that the influence of the local labor publication may be
extended and where such papers also own a job printing
office it is recommended that the unions patronize them
to their fullest requirements.
"Fraternally yours,
"SAMUEL GOMPERS,
"President American Federation of Labor."

| sistance by giving your eletric-
| al work to concerns employing

spoonfuls of water and two table-
spoonfuls of brown sugar for 15 min-
utes; remove from the flre brush the
*akes over with this and sprinkle
chopped cocoanut all over them.
English Meat Pie.
As a way of using left-over meat
try an old-fashioned "English meat
pie." Chop cold beef finely, put in a
deep baking dish a layer of the meat,
strew lightly with bread crumbs, sea-
son highly with salt, pepper, butter and
a few drops of onion juice; repeat the
process till the dish is full or your
meat used up. Pour over it a cup of
stock or gravy, or, lacking these, hot
water with a teaspoon of butter melt-
ed in it; on top a good layer of bread
crumbs should be put and seasoned
and dotted with butter. Cover and
bake half an hour; remove the cover
and brown.
Bro. G. S. Warren, for some time I
joint business agent for the Carpen-
ters and i ainters at Tulsa, Okla.,
has resigned. The union boys of
Tulsa regret his resignation as busi-
ness agent. as his work has been of
great benefit to the carpenters and
painters in particular and to or-
ganized labor generally. Bro. Warren
will leave for Guthrie shortly In be-
half of organized labor.
The local electricians at Enid are
up and doing and ever on the look-
out for the cause of unionism. The
Enid local of electricians recently j
had their local by-laws and consti-
tution printed in book form and are
now working under them. The State
Labor News wishes Enid's electric-
ians Buccess—they deserve It.
Gelatine of Veal.
Bone the meat in a piece of the
shoulder of veal and remove all
gristle. Mix three-quarters of a pound
Dt sausage meat with a scant half
pound of bread crumbs, season high-
ly with salt and pepper, and bind to-
gether with one beaten egg. Put this
In the center of the veal, tie it firmly
together, put it into a deep saucepan
with a bay leaf, a few peppercorns
and a pinch of thyme, cover with wa-
ter, and !et simmer for two hours
When thoroughly cooked take the
veal out of the broth, and when cold
remove the string.
Club Sandwiches.
Take equal parts of cooked chicken
and hard-boiled eggs, chop and cook in
enough thickened milk gravy to hold
the mixture together, and season with
salt, pepper and a touch of paprika.
Cut slices of stale bread and season
also. Place chicken mixture between
two slices, between the next two a
slice of fried bacon, or chopped ham
if preferred, then another of chicken.
Tie these sandwiches together with
twine and fry quickly in hot deep fat
till a light brown. Dry and remove

T. M. Kelly, district organizer for
the International Brotherhood of
Relctricnl Workers with headquarters
at Little Rock, Ark , is in Oklahoma
City looking after the local affairs of
his union and more particular the pre-
sent misunderstanding the unfair firm
Arnold & Wea'herbee seems to have
with the local electricians. Bro. Kelly
is president of the Central Council at
Little Rock and also a delegate to the
Arkansas State Federation of Labor,
which meets in annual session next
week. He will return to his home this
evening so as to make arrangements
for others to fill his place there while
he comes to Oklahoma City to make an
aggressive campaign against the un-
fair elecrical concern.
Baked Beets.
Many old-fashioned cooks like the
English way of baking beets Instead
jf boiling. They claim they preserve
their natural sweetness better when
baken. Wash well, but do not break
the skin. Put Into a baking tin with
a little hot water thrown over them.
When tender, peel, slice and serve
with oil and lemon juice, pepper and
salt, or butter, pepper and salt.
Boiled beets are fine chilled, sliced
with celery, and covered with mayon
nalse.
Maple Confections.
Maple confections are most popular
this year. Maple cream over Ice
cream, maple cream with whipped
cream and with cake. A good maple
cream may be prepared as follows:
lake one-half a pound of maple sugar,
one-half a pound of brown sugar, one-
half a cup of water and half a tea-
spoon of cream of tartar. Boll these
together until they form a soft ball
when dripped into cold water. Pour
out into a shallow platter and when
nearly cold beat with a fork until
thick and creamy.
