he back and sew round to the edge Of
shape, closely together, fasten of at
he back, laying the cord little one
end over the otncr. The shape is now
:eady for the embroidery; this must be
handled very lightly or it will crease.
Cut /: yards off for the brim, cut one
piece OF wire yard long for inserting
near the crown, run it through the
op holes OF the wheels. For the out
side, take piece Of II yards tbe very

on to the crown. each pleat separately

to get more on cne side than the other.
When this is done, throw the wires
out as far as you can, and bend up at
The left side of the front, then twist the
two ends Of the top wire together at
The back and sew to ihe shape; push

q chute, about sixteen feet long. four
feet wide at tho rear and two and
two and one.half feet at the 'front.'
By means Of straps and ropes its head
is fastened securely down to the side
Of the chute. The operator then
takes the dehorner, the opening in
which is large enough to admit the
largest bull horn, which is embraced
between two cutting edges, and the
swing levers are short fulcrumed so
as to push the sliding knife with i'm
mense power. The knife slides in
guide grooves, so that 1t cuts in a
true plane and can not be dislocated
by a sudden movement Of the animal.
The rate Of speed is placed at sixty
heads per hour, and 1t Is advisable to
perform the operation only during
the fall, winter or spring. They
should not be dehorned IN summer
because Of the hot weather and flies.
An expert is usually employed to per
form the operation. In the West the
practice has been adopted extensively.

Nothing Wasted.

In all large cities there are to be
found tracts OF low-lytng waste land
which is being filed up with ma
terial deposited there By the ash
carts. The accumulated heaps OF
rubbish, unpromising as they look,
are q great boon to the very poor,
who are certain to Ind IN them some
thing that can be sold to the Junk
dealer. A professional" picker may
earn ten or twelve dollars week at
the work. The ways and means are
legion by which these people manage
to exc out q living from the stuff
which they find here. They clothe
themselves to g certain extent. Shoes,
hats, garments Of every description
are picked out and appropriated.
Those which are not worn by the
finder are sold to the secondhand
clothier. Nobody need want coal
who lives near dump. Bags Of it
are daily taken away by the pickers;
they sell all they cannot use at the
rate OF ten cents per hoa. Many
dump pickers make business Of sell.
ing rags. Armed with a curious i'm
plement like clam fork, they clus-
ter around each ash load as it is
deposited on the ground, poking over
the contents. Every available piece
of cloth is quickly appropriated, the
dirt shaken out, and those pieces
which prove to be garments that
promise most favorably are carefully
laid aside for further examination.
Often garments are found which can
be washed and renovated and serve
a very useful purpose for needy fam
fly. Old shoes ara found in abund-
ance Those in the best condition
are sold to cobblers, who repair them
aud sell them. Money is sometimes
found tucked away In an cd pocket
book or in the pockets Of caSt-off gar
ments. This becomes the property
of the finder. Old books and maga-
zines, Of which there are many, are
sold for book stock. Newspapers find
sale at piano manufactures, where
they are used iUr packing the iDstTu-
ments. like many other hard toll
ers, dump pickers complain Of hard
times, and regret more fortunate
days. Owing to the increasing thrift
Of householders, the ash loads do not
yield nearly 50 proGtably as they once
did. There is always the chance Of
finding something vaIuahla, however,
and, strange Is it may seem, the
work Possesses g certain fascination
for those Sho engage in it.
