is 1909, gain of AGA or over 40 per cent
over her majority of four years ago, a
larger per cent than any other county
made / think. Windsor county gained
only % per cent.
The town of Bradford, always known
as the hot bed OF the democrats, voted IL

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.


Cut willow or any other kind Of
trees in July or August. with the least
probability of sprouting.
New onion seed has a somewhat
moist, tender skin, and moist, oily
kernel. Test by pressing the seed on a
piece Of writing paper. If it leaves
no moisture it has lost its vitality.
-Ginghams and prints of bright
col0rs are washed by some laundresses
in water thickened with flour starch.
The flour is cleansing and does the
work Of soap without injury to bright
colors.
When farmer raises q crop Of
corn or wheat, he has to haul them to,
and seek. a market. II he raises a
good horse, purchasers will seek him on
his farm and demand his horse at al
most any price.
TO keep your skin from roughening,
find by trial what kind of soap suits
you best, and use no other. Frequent
changes of soap are bad for the COM
plexion. Beware of those which are
highly scented; as general thing they
are of poor quality, the scent being
used to destroy the odor Of the other
ingredients used.
Tomato Soup.-Boil quart can
of tomatoes until we'll cooked, press
through sieve, add a teaspoonful Of
soda; put a spoonful of butter into a
sauce pan and melt. stir in flour to
thicken. pour over quart of boiling
water, season with cayenne pepper,
salt and teacup of stale bread crumbs
let boil, and add the tomato pulp.
Potato Cakes.-Boil and mash thu
potatoes, working in salt and butter
and add an egg or two beaten light
Let them get cold; make into cake'

Roll in raw egg, then in flour Of
cracker-dust, and fry quickly in no
dripping. Take each up as soon as i
is done and drain with a wire spoor
before laying upon hot dish.
-Curried Eggs.-Mince small
onion very fine; put a tablespoonful o
butter into hot frying-pan, and browl
the onion in it; mix heaping tea
spoonful Of curry powder with half
cup of milk, pour into the pan and le
it boil until thick; break the eggs il
carefully. and poach them in the mix
ture. If it is liked, little lemon juic
may be squeezed over them befor
serving.
Fowls all roost high, and if tn
nests are placed up against the walls
at distance above the floor, the hen
will roost in them at night and sool
make them filthy. High nests bree'
lice. for the heat of the hens bodie
on the nest all night will hatch ou
lice plentifully. The nests should b
down on the ground and so arranged
that they can be taken out of tn
poultry house to be cleaned.

The Latest Features in Costumes, Garn

The Latest Features In Costumes. Garnl
lures and Millinery.
Handsomely colored arabesque de-
vices, leaf designs, flowers. fruits,
heraldic figures and geometric patterns
are still highly fashionable. the dress
and coat garnitures of silk cord, fiat
gimp, fine galloons and metallic cords.
These trimmings are displayed on the
fronts Of waistcoats. the front and
back Of the bodices, the edges Of deep
kits, and also from borders that reach
from the knee to the skirt-hem Of wool
skirts.
The new French costumes and
toilets, both for home wear, visiting
and the promenade, show two decided
extremes. One style is severe. elegant
and artistic; the opposite effect is elab-
orate and dressy. Gowns in the first
mentioned style show the master hand
in fit, finish and the chaste disposal Of
softly falling undraped folds. In the
details Of the latter style Of dress, the
rare manipulations Of deft. artistic
Partisan are manifest. No two toilets
are alike, and there is infinite grace
and attraction in the wonderful ar
rangement Of the draperes and garni'
lures of each individual gown.
The supplementary garments re-
quired with walking costumes include
English walking coats, plush and vel.
vet pelcrines. handsomely decorated
French visites matching the dress,
Newmarkets and ulsters cut to fit the
figure with the closeness of bodice.
waist, and long graceful garments
made Of fine cloth in monochrome. and
so richly decorated and perfectly fitted
that they can easily do duty for an
elaborate costume on the promenade.
There are no very striking features
in new hats and bonnets thus far. The
shapes are mostly pretty and stylish,
with but few pronounced effects. The
princesse bonnet, so dear to the hearts
Of Frcnchwomen, has Il perennial pop
ularity. and appears again this season
in straw, felt and velvet, to suit the
exigencies Of our fitful climate. Some
Of the new millinery fabrics are ex'
ceedingly elegant and beautiful.
Among the the novelties are pretty little
stringless velvet bonnets, In dark green
and other rich shades. decorated with
half.wreaths Of May roses, arbutus
blossoms. jonquils in cluster, sprays OF
pink hyacinti,, ETC.; crocus blooms in a
rich mass on tiny black velvet capot,
is :. dainty and effective style for - bru'
nette. Pale wood violets delicately
shaded, are arranged on fish-wife
poke bonnet Of dark violet velvet. The
princesse models are shown with and
without coronet fronts. These pretty
little flower bonncts will be
worn until tho summer heat renders
them Uncomfortable. They will be seen
en- suite with costumes OF Henriettt
cloth in light spring shades, and with
white wool toilets further on. The
bonnets will be worn so as ia. display

Customers have reported, nearly
every day Of the week, lately, that
after a certain hour i'm the day,
copies Of THE TRIBUNE cannot be
had from newsdea!erS near them
or from newsboys on the. trains.
This is a necessary and invarla-
Bile incident Of steadily increas-
ing sale of the paper, and is aggra-
waited by the rush which happens,
every day or two, FOR extra copies,
containing political features Of
special importance.
The remedy Is entirely within the

or order il served daily at his house.
The latter plan is best. During the
remainder of this campaign, every

new piece Of strategy on the poIiti-
cal field of battle. the TRIBUNE
will have all the regular news and
many special features of it's own.
