SCAPEGRACE SONS.
A Manitoba Farm Devoted to Making
Men of Sewers of wild Oats.


Men of Sewers of wild Oats.
"Tve seen almost all kinds of curious
farms, think" said traveller the
other day, from ostrich down to pep
permint farms, but one of the strang-
est is up in Manitoba, Its principal
crop is an annual growth of young
Englishmen. sons of wealthy parents
who have interrupted the boys in their
diligent work Of sowing a thick and
early crop OF wild oats, and have sent
them out to the colony to have their
moral and physical health built up
and little industry and useful knowl-
edge instilled into them at the same
time. The owners of the farm. two
brothers, charge the boys for their
board and instruct them in farming for
nothing, but the work they manage to
get out of the young fellows is worth a
good deal more than time spent in
teaching them, though occasionally u
horse . is fOundered or piece of farm
machinery is broken by the young
greenhorn.
1T is remarkable, though, how these
young sprigs of nobility, many of them,
take to the hard work of the farm.
They have true British grit about
them and the managers have sense
enough to have the drudgery and dirty
work done by hired men. The boys
ride the horserakes, drive the moving
machines, learn to run thrasher,
plow, ETC., and all OF them take kindly
to the care of livestock, the horses
especially, though propensity TO race
the latter at every opportunity has to
be guarded against. The instincts oil
gentlemen don't seem TO desert them
either. for they will never sit down TO
eat in the clothes they have worked in
and refuse to eat with the farm hands
who bring the smell of stables to the
table. Bathing, shaving sad dressing
for the evening take up A. good deal OF
their time--indeod, waste it, real
farmers would say-but the boys in
sist on IL and also cling to their ciga-
rettes. Many OF them get tc like the
life SO that they stay longer than their
parents insist on, but nearly all return
gladly when the term OF their banish-
meut is over."--N. Y. Tribune.

FINDING THE LAGOON.
How One of the Greatest Ancient Master
pieces Was Discovered.

| How One of the Greatest Ancient Master
| pieces Was Discovered.
The LAGOON may be the original
statue bepraised by Pliny, but even
that is open to doubt. The history of
the finding of this statue was in this
wise: 1t happened in 1906, when Ra-
phael, IA youth of twcnty-threc, was
painting in Florence. In the month OF
June IL messenger arrived in hot haste
at the vatican to tell Pope Julius III
that workmen, eXcavating in vine
yard near St. Maria Maggiore, had
come upon statues. The Pope turned
to one of his grooms and bid him run
to his architect, Giuliago di San Gallo,
to tell him to go there at once and see
about it, San Gallo instantly had his
horse saddled. took his young son,
Francisco. who relates this, on the
crupper behind him and called for
Michael Angelo. and away the three
trotted through the hot and dusty
streets, as we may imagine, in II great
state of excitement.
When they reached the place, they
beheld that agonized face which we all
know so well, and which many of us
have tried to copy so often. ''lt is the
LAGOON of Pliny!" exclaimed San Gal
10. Mad with excitement. they urged
on the workmen; a great hole was
cleared away, and they were able to
contemplate that wonderful group. cer-
tainly the finest monument of antiquity
which had as yet been revealed to the
modern world. After this, as Francisco
says, they went home to dinner. How
they must have talked! We can mag
inc poor wife crying despairingly to
her lord: Dear Giuliana. do leave off
talking for moment, dinner is getting
quite cold!" should like to have been
there; but that is idle.
The statue was transferred to the
Belvedere, and then arose the question,
Was it Pliny's LAGOON or a copy?-a
question not decided to this day. Pliny
says that the statue was carved by Ages
ander, Polydorus and Athendorus. OF
Rhodes. out of single block of mar

OCEANS OF MILK.
An Estimate of One of the Great Indus
tries of the Country.

An Estimate of One of the Great Indus
tries of the Country.
"There are 50, 900, 800, 900 invested in
the dairy business in this country
said citizen with prediction for
statistics. THAT amount is almost
double the money invested in banking
and commercial industries. 1t is es-
timated that it requires 15,000,0 600
cows to supply the demand for milk
and its products in the United States.
To feed these COWS 60,000,000 acres of
land are under cultivation. The
agriculture and dairy machinery
and implements in use are worth
over $2OO.O00000. The men en-
ployed in the business number $780,
600 and the horses over 1,000,00 The
cows and horses consume annually 80
100000 tons of hay, nearly 100000 900
bushels of corn-meal, about the same
amount of oatmeal, 275, 900, 900 bushels
of oats, 2,000,0 900 bushels of bran, and
1000, 900 bushels of corn, to say moth
ing of the brewery grains, sprouts and
other questionable feed of various
kinds that are used to great extent.
II costs $780, 100000 to feed these cows
and horses. The average price paid to
the laborer necessary in the dairy
business is probably $50 month,
amounting to $3.50, 100000 year.
1.-The average COW yields about 450
gallons of milk Il year, which gives
a total product of 6,75O, 900, 900 gallons.
Twelve cents gallon is fair
price to estimate the value OF
this milk ut a total return to
the dairy farmers of $S10,000,0O0, if
they sold all their milk as milk. But
so per cent. of the milk is mado into
cheese and butter. 1t takes q pounds
of milk to make / pound of butter,
and about 10 pounds to make one of
cheese. There is the same amount of
nutrition in 81 pounds of milk that
there is in l pound of beef. A fat
steer furnishes so per cent. of boneless
beef, but it would require about a.
oO0,O 900 steers, weighing 1,500 pounds
each, to produce the same amount of
nutrition as the annual milk product
does. ."-Philadelphi Press.

FRESH FASHION NOTES.
styles that Have Been Adopted by the
Leaders of Society.


Leaders of Society.
Piece lace in floral designs has gon,
out of fashion; geometric patterns hav'
taken their place.
Crepon de laine Is an excellent ma
terial for such dresses, and there ar,
u few more becoming styles for young
girls fete dresses.
In tailor fancy cloths for ladies every
thing must be rough and flecked to bt
in the fashion. Smooth cloths are ou
of date, except just the plain kinds.
Pretty sleeves are plain from shoul
ders to elbows and open below the
elbows on the upper sides of the arms
the edges being trimmed with some
garniture and edged with fall Of fine
lace.
Borders are things Of the past, and
materials thus treated are sold ut rub
bish prices in Paris; but the newest
idea is material half one tone and hall
another, or with diagonal weaving
meeting in the center forming a chew
ron.
The combination of colors and various
shades is almost universal, and the
melange of styles is most bewildering
empire fronts and directoire backs,
garments that defy the observer to
classify either as robe, redingote or
coat.
Oriental silks have lost none of their
popularity. and for a rather dressy yet
not showy or "dressed up" costume,
one of the softly draping silks or Ben
galines is most useful. 1t may be worn
almost anywhere, at almost any time.
The revolution in sleeves is being ac-
cepted, and some of the newest are
very wide at the top, and either lace
or button inside the arm. French
women allow them to droop over the
hand, carrying out the medinval mode
in it's entirety.
Vatican draperies, as well as the
straight styles, are employed for India
and Burmese silks, and they are
trimmed, according to the use for
which they are indicated, with velvet
revers, etc., or with quantities, more
or less. of creamy lace.
The dccadence of the hustle does not
necessarily imply its entire abandon
ment, and it is the exception rather
than the rule for lady to reject all
appearance of tournure, excepting
with the distinctive empire dresses;
and even with these the sash with the
long looped bow at the back furnishes u
substitute.
1t is emphatically a silk season, and
silk may be used in all combinations
and with any material; and, in fact,
scarcely any costume, even the simple
ginghams for ordinary wear, is con-
sidered quite finished without silk col
lar and cuffs or sash, or some device
in which the seasons favorite material
may be employed. st. Louis Republic.
