FARM NOTES

IT has been demonstrated that the
farmer a produce animals for market
preponderating In lean or fat, as pre-
ferred, and the demand is increasing
for ~carcasses that excel in lean. 1t has
also been accepted that the best car
cases should also contain a fair pro-
portion of fat. The whole matter
depends on the cost of production, and
in considering the cost not only the
food allowed to the animals but the
ultimate effects on the soil enter into
the questions Of profit or loss. The
main point. after all, is the amount of
fertility removed from the soil, for
when the soil shall begin to deteriorate
in fertility the wealth of the farm will
be passing away. Choice lean meat
sells at q higher price in market be.
cause 1t is of better quality for the
table; but whether the difference In
price between fat and lean meat will
compensate for the difference in the
elements required for their production
depends on the mode of producing the
meat and the manner of procuring
the food. 1t is possible to buy the
greater portion of the food and convert
it into beef or pork, securing the
manure. and thereby realize a fair pro-
fit; but the same may be done in pro-
ducing animals that preponderate in
fat. So far as procuring the meterlals
from the soil is concerned it may be
stated that fat really costs nothing,
though there is an expense incurred in
securing it thrugh the labor employed.
Fat is derived from the food produced
by plants, and plants during growth
derive their fat (carbonl from the car
bonic acid and gas Of the atmosphere
through the agency OF. the leaves.
Scientists are agreed that carbon cannot
be applied to growing plants by way of
the soil and roots. Lean meat, on the
contrary, is composed largely Of nitro
gen (the most expensive element in fer
tilizers), which must be procured and

Pale and deep tan plush skirts are
worn with winter dresses of various
colors and fabrics.
Fashion is by no means exclusive
this year, and it is difficult to say
which style OF dress Is most in vogue.
1 eaked bodices have by no means been
laid aside, and yet in new costumes for
the early spring we see a great many
round waists; not short under the
arms, as they we're under the First
Empire, but just at the proper place
and encircled by a sklllfully draped
sash of faille, more or surah. With
round waists, scarf-sash and semi.
trained skirt are coming in again; but
this style is by no means exclusively
adopted, and the peaked bodice is still
much worn, especially for evening
dresses.
-CheViots in cool natural gray and
fawn, in fine herring-bone pattern, are
always In demand by refined women of
conservative taste. Mixtures in black
and white shepherds checks and cross
bars promise to be in special demand.
There is always a large quantity of
such goods sold in New York to ladies
who are taking off mourning and to
many who contine their morning street
dress to some combination of black,
white or gray.

There Is also an elegant material

remains entirely open, showing an un-

Among the latest novelties in
spring goods we notice a new style Of
droguet, which has arrow stripes
woven so as TO simulate embroidery in
two or three shades of color over a
beige or gray ground. There are also
very pretty stripes in shaded silks over
a cashmere ground. They look re-
markably well in several shades of
slate blue silk over a dark slate
ground, also in shades of heliotrope
and gray.
There appears to be an increased
demand again for both gold and silver
beads which are worn about the neck
in several strands, forming a necklace
of festooned strands. The first row
of beads its closely around the throat;
each after row, being a little larger
than Its predecessor, falls beneath it,
and when there are five or six strands
the effect is that of a very rich and
elaborate necklace.

IT certainly does not pay to keep a
low grade of sheep and then let them
take cart of themselves. The small
amount of wool secured, as well as the
poor quality, is such that no margin of
profit will be left to the farmer over and
above the cost. Even with poor sheep
a much better growth of wool can be
secured if they be reasonably well cared
for than If they be left to themselves.
