POULTRY PlCKINGS.

THERE is more in feed than in breed.
GUINEAs are among the best foragers
Of all the fowls usually kept on the
farm, and if allowed a good range will
pick up the greater part of their own
living.
WHILE an exclusive diet of grain is
Objectionable as a rule. yet at this sea-
son some grain must be supplied in
order to keep the fowls in good, thrifty
condition.
FULLY one-half of the failures with
brooders are due to want of care in
keeping warm. Breeders should be ar
ranged so that there will be no corners
into which the chicks can crowd.
If the fowls appear droopy and lose
appetite. it will often be good plan to
feed them inseed meal. \ gill of the
meal given to ten hens twice a week
will aid in maintaining good health and
thrift.
THE principal item with the bantam
is its small size, and in breeding them
everything should be sacrificed in order
to have them as small as possible. If
they get beyond pound and half in
weight they are getting too heavy.
BONES make good feed for poultry
occasionally. and on many farms a
good supply could be readily secured
with a little care in picking them up
and breaking or grinding them into
such condition that the fowls can. eat
them,

SPRING COSTUMES.
Seasonab.e styles and Fabrics For Street

Scasonlb.e styles and Fabrics For Street
Wear.
The use of the new and beautiful
camel's-ha fabrics will reign to great
extent this coming spring. Many of
the embroidered examples of this mate
rial now shown in the stores will be
made up with Il conspicuous adjustment
of the broad band of the work Il few
inches above the hem. as this shows to
great advantage above fur, velvet or
metal gallOon.
The velvet sleeves will be retained as
a dressy and becoming accessory. as
also the broad band of velvet seen in
the high and straight, the fiaring
collar, and broad folds of velvet run
ming around the hem will be seen on
dresses of light cloth of the various
shades of tan, suede. gray slate-b blue,
the novel reds and the dark greens.
On dresses of such tints, and of the
cited fabrics. there will be a display of
hand-wrought metal thread, which will
cover the collar. middle of waist, the
inner portion of the sleeve and the bust
beginning to be seen on the shoulder,
the design broadening as it descends,
and after reaching the belt line in its
central effect, running over to the left
side of the front of the skirt, which
closes on that side, then extending to
the hem, where it is bordered with fur,
as also along the closing side. Fur will
form a broad cuff on such a dress.
Another style. in which brocaded
cloth will be seen in conjunction with
Bengaline, shows the sleeves and the
clinging sides of the princesse shape in
the first-named fabric, while the front
of Ike skirt is in Bengaline, largely dis
PLAYED by the parting of the brocaded
material. which is held down in two

in the vest. which is topped by criss-
cross of chenille, fringe of which, a
ward deep. is seen on the Bengaline at
The hem. while on the brocaded cloth a
half-vard garniture of chenille matching
the fringe is displayed, and extends
around the back of The skirt.
A novel example of a street costume
shows a straight skirt, somewhat full IN

difficult to tell just when to
allow them to grow, the object being
to put it off as long as the season would
permit and still get plants of sufficient
maturity to bear fruit next season. If
it turned dry after midsummer it was
difficult to get a good stand, and if it
was wet then too many plants started.

The pearl oyster does not produce any
pearls until it is six or seven years Of
age. and it is a matter of great impor-
lance that it should not be disturbed in
any way during that length of time.
The oysters are obtained by the means
of men who are trained to the business,
and who can remain under water for
considerable time without being
drowned. Each diver takes with him
net-bag, for the purpose of holding the
oysters, puts his foot in a stirrup, to
which hangs a stone weighing about
thirty pounds, and after taking long
breath, is swiftly carried to the bottom.
He then filings himself on his face, fills
his bag as fast as he can, and when his
breath begins to fail shakes the rope as
a signal, and is drawn up, together with
the bag.-Detroit Free Press.

hang the basket where it can be sprin-

little, to remove the greater weight of

thrown, which is better than the spray

Bees serve as active agents in the fer

They are profitable, because they gather
and store up that which would be entire

places that are rarely seen. and the
fence corners and neglected spots are
often valuable pasture fields for them.
