When transferring is to be begun. move

honey, which brings peace to their

STARTING ANIMALS.

The Importance Of Measuring Up - Their
Full Capacity.
In the spring of the year. thousands
OF colts, calves, lambs. pigs and
chickens begin an existence on the
farm that, in far too many cases, does
mot prove at all profitable to the own
ers. All young farm animals are capable
of . certain amount Of growth and de-
vclopment: but, in order 70 measure mp
to their full capacity. they must have .
good start in growth, and then be kept
growing continuously. There is no
profit in raising young animals under
any other conditions.
II calf or chicken is neglected for
only q. few days, = leesening Of tho ra-
ton Of an exposure tora storm. per.
haps, though the best of care and feed
be aftcrward given, the young animal
will never fully come to the develop
ment that it would have reached had
the conditions been unremittingly
propitiouA A little reflection ought to
convince anyone that this is true, both
in the animal and vegetable kingdom.
The plant that droops in the garden
does mot produce in full measure at har-
vest time-evey gardener has realized
this-while the stuntcd calf. pig or
chicken. though it may have an excellent
appetite and be apparently in good
health, Is universally known to be Of
small profit to raise.
A large percentage of the young ami
mails on many farms are not treated 90
that they fall into this category, but are
neglected sufficiently and deprived Of
Just enough necessary nourishment to
turn the scale from profit to loss, or 1T
best from profit to an even balance be
tween cost and selling price. The mar
gin Of profit in raising animals on the
farm is small enough under the best
conditions, and it requires the best Of
cscc and unrcmitting attention rs to

Il II Hard for . Girl Now to Keep Up with
Her Older sisters.
Every article of n smartly-dresscd
woman's linen is a work of art. The
finest linen and the costliest laces arc
de rigueur: the countless petticoats and
the perpetual change of chaussure
(every gown having its shoes and stock
ings to match) constitute another item
in the list of necessary articles, and
when one comes to reckon on the end
less toilets of a year. with their indis-
pcnsablc accessories, one sees easily
how impossible IL is for any woman
smartly dressed to be sd economically.
Women of the highest rank in En-
gland used to consider one thousand
Ave hundred dollars or two thousand
dollars e year ample for pin money. and
out of that helped others less rich than

woman who wishes to be well-drcsscd.

SO many ways trenches on their place

and initiate the real article as much as
possible; so they have to dress out Of

In their smaller way they must have
silk. satin and brocade; and in this
change the great extra expense occurs.
girls having discarded all the light
and simple materials for heavy and
rich ones.
Like all women in society, girls are
now rs much in evidence as married
women. Formerly girls went out in
moderate way, and were not to be seen
ut many Of Tie places which they now
frequent.
Very few girls vent to race meet
ings. and lawn tennis and afternoon
parties (all requiring their own toilets)
were not then the fashion. Three or
four balls a week during the season
was q good allowance. -
The good old custom of wearing out
their city dresses in the country was
then in vogue. Now by the end of the
season the fashion has all changed.
Gowns are out Of date, and no one can
afford to look dowdy nowadays and
wear In . second season the dresses of
the last year.-National Review.

The heavy layer Of bread next the
bottom and sides of the loaf Is proba bly,
caused by not leaving the bread long
enough in the bowl or the pan when it
is rising. II should rise each time after
kneading till IL is double in bulk AL
ways rub little lard or butter on the
outside while It is rising to prevent a
hard crust forming. Letthc broad rise
at least three-quarterso of an hour in the
pans. If this does not remedy the mat

Where water Il found In sufficient

only safeguard against contagious dis

washing sheep at home may b con-
structed Is follows
Take m ordinary store-bcx. four feet
BY four feet will do. Stop all leaks BY
the use of cloth and pitch. and place
the box in such . position Is to receive
the water from . trough or pipe. Make
floating lid nearly the size Of the box.
and bore in it a number Of half.ifch
holes, thus allowing the water TO pass
readily through the floating platform.
To the middle Of the opposite sides at
the box nail two scantling in An ny
