VARYING ONION SOUPS
FIVE RECIPES THAT ARE IN
MOST COMMON USE.
Housewives Differ as to the Ber
Method of Cooking and the Pro-
portion of Ingred ents That
Give the Best Results.
The following methods of making
onion soup are those practiced by va-
rious housewives:
Onion Soup I.—One quart of milk,
two large onions, one tablespoon of
butter. Brown the butter slightly In
a sauce pan, slice in the onions, let
them cook through and brown, but
not burn. Heat milk to boiling point.
Cut two slices of bread in inch pieces
and lay in a tureen. Put the cooked
onions on the bread, pour over them
the hot milk and then one cup of hot
cream. Season with salt and pepper.
Onion Soup II.—Parboil two large
onions five minutes, then remove and
chop fine. Add one tablespoon of
grated carrot, place in a sauce pan
over the fire with one ounce of beef
fat, and cook six minutes. Add one
tablespoon of flour, stir a few minutes,
then add one quart of boiling water,
one-half tablespoonful of salt, a few
dashes of pepper, and one teaspoon
of beef extract Cook 30 minutes,
then strain and add one-fourth of a
cup of cream, and serve.
Onion Soup III.—Put a small piece
of butter in a sauce pan, and, when
quite hot, put in three large onions
cut into thin slices. Cook them until
they are red, then put in one-half a
cup of flour and cook, stirring all the
time. When done, pour In a pint of
hot water with salt and pepper, let
boll a minute, and set aside. When
ready to serve, put in a quart of boil-
ing milk and about four potatoes
mashed to a paste. It Is better to add
the liquid to the potato, stirring all
the time.
Onion Soup IV.—Fry carefully one
quart of sliced onions in a little but-
ter, cooking to light brown. Add salt
and pepper, and, when the onions
have taken a good color, add five cups
of cold water and simmer one hour.
Onion Soup V.—Brown two onions
in sauce pan with one ounce of butter,
stir in a little flour and moisten with
three pints of white broth. Season
with salt and pepper and cook for ten
minutes. Place six pieces of bread in
a tureen, cover them with fine slices
Swiss cheese, pour the broth over
them, grate a little cheese on the
top, and put in the oven for five min-
utes before serving.
Colache.
Chop up fine six small squash, one
onion, three new potatoes, one handful
string beans, three green peppers.
Now put in three sliced tomatoes and
one-half dozen ears of corn scraped
from the cob. Put all this mixture in
a pot and pour one cup of water over
It and two tablespoons of clear, clean
lard on top. Put on a slow fire to
cook. Keep well covered and stir
often to prevent burning.
Saratoga Onions.
Peel and thinly slice three large
white onions and soak in milk for teD
minutes, then draifi and dry on a
towel. Separate the slices into rings
put a dozen or more at a time in a
frying basket and plunge into smok-
ing hot fat. Take out as soon as del-
icately colored, drain for a moment
on unglazed paper, turn into heated
dish, dust lightly with salt and serve
at once.
Raised Doughnuts.
One pint of sweet milk, one table-
spoonful of butter, two eggs, one cup
of sponge, as for bread, one cup of
sugar. Stir to a soft batter, set to
raise, mix stiff; set to raise again.
Then roll and cut out, raise and fry in
hot grease. This dough can be kept
three or four days in a cool place and
fried fresh as wanted.

Medical Genius.
An old doctor, seeing a young one
who was going along the street with
half a dozen shabby-looklng men and
women, called him aside and asked:
“Who are all those people, and where
are you going with them?’’
“I will tell you in confidence,” was
the reply, "that I’ve hired them to
come and sit in my reception room. I
expect a rich patient this morning,
$nd I want to make an impression on
him.”—Judge's Library.
Those who are wondering why the
number of Americans going to Canada
year by year Increases in the rates
that it does, would nc be so surprised
were they to accompany one of the
numerous excursions that are being
run under the auspices of the Govern-
ment from Beveral of the states, nnd
remain with the settler until he gets
onto the free homesteads, which, as
stated by Speaker Champ Clark, in the |
U. S. senate the other day, comprises
160 acres of the most fertile soil and
with remarkably easy settlement con-
ditions. Then watch the results,
whether it be on this free homestead
of 160 acres or on land which he may
purchase at from $15. to $20. per acre,
fully as good as the $100. and $150.
per acre land of his native state, and
which his means will not permit his
purchasing. On the part of the mem-
bers of the TJ. S. Senate and Congress
there Is nothing but praise for Canada.
Canadian laws and Canadian lands al-
though the reasonable desire is shown
in their remarks, that they pass legis-
lation, (which is very praiseworthy)
Uiat will make the land laws of the
United States much easier.
It Is the success of the American
settler In Canada thnt attracts others,
and when experiences such as the fol-
lowing are related to the friend ‘‘back
home" Is it any wonder that increased
Interest Is aroused and a determina-
tion arrived at, to participate In the
new-found way up in Canada that
means wealth and health and all that
accompanies it.
William Johnston, who formerly
lived at Alexandria, Minn., settled in
the Alberg District near Battle River
and in writing to one of the Canadian
Government agents, located in the
United States says: “We have had no
failures of crops during our nine years
In Canada. I threshed 1208 bushels of
wheat and 1083 bushels of oats in 1911,
off my 160 acres. This Is a beautiful
country. I keep six good work horses
and milk seven cows, getting good
prices for butter and eggs. We get
our coal for $2.00 per ton at the mine,
about one mile from the farm. Am
about one and a half miles from a fine
school. As for the cold weather it is
much milder here than in Minnesota,
where I lived for 21 years. Our well
is 35 feet deep and we have fine wa-
ter. Wild land is selling for $18.
to $25. per acre. Improved farms are
much higher. I am well satisfied with
the country, and would not sell unless
I got a big price, as we have all done
well here.”
Good reasons to account for the
number going to Canada.
When a child sulks drowsily, or is
fretful, it is usually due to some slight
disorder of the digestive organs, and a
mild laxative is very often all that is
necessary to restore cheejfuloess and
buoyancy of spirits.
In cases where the use of a gentle,
effective laxative stlvnuiant is Indi-
cated, many of the best physicians are
now prescribing Dr. Caldwell’s Byrup
Pdpsln. This preparation is admitted-
ly the perfect laxative, being mild, yet
positive In its action on the bowels,
and far preferable to violent cathart-
ics and purgative waters. It Is very
pleasant to the taste and Is an Ideal
remedy to regulate and strengthen the
stomach, liver and bowels. Its easy,
natural action mnkes it especially de-
sirable in the case of children, a dose
at bed-time being sure to have the de-
sired result next morning, with no at-
tendant unpleasantness or discomfort.
Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere in 50c and
$1.00 bottles. If you have never tried
this splendid remedy, write to Dr. W.
