Dress and Fashion.

The tournure continues to be worn,
but not visibly, by women of fashion.
Every dress has two or three short
steel springs in the foundation skirt,
but the cushion has, for the most
part, disappeared.
Bands of silk embroidery are now
made and sold by the yard. and form
convenient trimming for wooden
dresses.
Hats are, many Of them, made
with an eye to the costumes with
which they will be worn.
English women wear wool Belmor-
al skirts faced half a yard deep inside
and out with tweed that is made
waterproof. Caters of similar tweed
are worn outside the boot, covering
it from the vamp well up on the
ankle.
The new white piece laces and
trimming laces for dresses, tea
gowns, ETC., are called Empire laces,
and have the prim designs Of other
Empire fabrics.
The dinner dresses are gayer and
are made of richer materials.
The various shades of gray are all
fashionable.
Ma telasse galloons are novel trim

rich borders for cloth and silk dress

the early Spring be increased by at
least three, and perhaps more. As

"It looks to me as though they were
going to make Chicago of Phila-

DampsnInu and Ironing Clothes.

- y " - ~ - =
The clothes should be gathered as
soon as dry on windy days, as an
hours whipping and switching IN the
wind will wear them more than weeks
of ordinary usage
Dampen the night before ironing
by sprinkling each piece, which
should be lightly rolled up, and then
placed in the basket.
Do not dampen fine starched clothes
until an hour or two before ironing
them, as they will be less stiff il damp
longer time. Dampening collars,
cuffs and shirts is an important fea-
ture of the polishing, as they
must be timber but not wet. For
collars and cuffs procure thin piece
of cloth-cheese cloth is best per-
haps--wet it and wiring it out Then
begin near one end of it, TO lay on it
cuff then fold over the end with
out bending the cuff, lay on another
piece, fold again and SO continue I'M
til all the cuffs and collars are wrap
ped in the damp cloth. They viii be
ready for polishing in about an hour.
To dampen shirts, lay a damp
cloth over the bosom, sprinkle the
rest Of the shirt lightly, roll up and
place with the collars and cuffs.
The ironing table should be cover.
ed with thick blanket and clean
white sheet. There should also be q
shirt board six feet long and eigh-
teen inches wide covered with two or
three thickness of cloth, in order to
ron dresses and shirts nicely. A
bosom-board is indispensable; this
should be nine inches by eighteen
inches, planned very smooth, and Gov
cred with single thickness of cot
ton-cloth.
Keeping the smoothing iron clean
and free from rust by securing them
well occasionally with powered en-
cry.
1t is to be hoped that no one who
reads this is an advocate Of the mon
ironing" theory. So slovenly a prac-
tice as that of putting away clothes
unironed cannot be deprecated too
severely. Other careless habits will
be sure to follow in the wake of such
violation of the rules of neatness.
If time is limited and strength in
adequate, economic elsewhere. See
that no garments are soiled and
washed unnecessarily. Have fewer
tucks and ruffies ifneed be, but do
not neglect the ironing.
Laces and embroideries should be
placed wrong side up over flannel,
and ironed after being carefully
smoothed. Iron the thin parts of
dresses and other starched garments
first, as they dry soonest; leave gath
ers and bands until the last

Sheep need plenty Of pure water
at all seasons.
Roup and diptheria are much the
same--the result of cold.
4 dairy COW must be made COM
Portable or you viii get but little milk.
In winter skim milk is good for
the calves after they have passed
their second month.
One bushel of shelled corn is equal
to two cubic feet of good, sound, dry
corn in the ear.
Be certain that there is plenty OF
water where the cows are turned out
to pasture. Clean, pure water is in
dispensable to mich COW.
A dozen trees planted each year
may change the appearance eta farm
greatly in generation and lead along
to income very satisfactorily as well.
Idle horses in winter stables should
have the shoes pulled off, and work.
ing horses should have their shoes
frequently reset to keep the feet in
natural shape.
If the boys have a few tools this
winter, they will afford them much
discipline and amusement, and result
in repairing and patching that will
more than repay their cost.
A dairyman whose object has been
| to make "butter as good as it could
be made" without reference to cost
or any other consideration, testifies
| that it has paid him remarkable
profit.
| Large numbers Of ducks are now
raised in small yards with no water
but that in the drinking vessels, and
they thrive and do wonderfully well
The Pekin is the most popular varie-
ty for this purpose.
| Dispose of the hogs, surplus tur-
keys and chickens, as soon as ready
for market. Turkeys especially, will
eat more corn than their increase OF
flesh justifies, even with an improve
ment in prices after this.
Dairy cows should not be COMPEL
ed to travel long distances foe water.
Have water in every pasture, and il
| the pasture be large, have water in
more than one place, and where the
| COWS can always have ready access
to it.
In countries where manure is great
ly needed, farmers are forced to un-
derstand that the compost heap offers
the best laboratory for the manufac-
ture of fertilizer from night-soil,
muck, refuge, urine, and dead ami
mails. The extended use ofchemical
fertilizers tends to turn farmers away
from composts.
