DOMESTIC IDEAS
Making Over Old Gowns.


The careful mother Of family now
brings out her trunk and aspects the
summer clothes left over from last
season, and those that can be made to do
duty with a little altering are separated
from those which cannot.
In family where there are several
little girls, each one growing out of last
years dress, the older child's can readily
be alteredb by trick or SO as to length to
make it fit the child Two years younger,
or two such little gowns, if not too much
worn, can be ripped apart and combined
in one.
If it is two little gingham dresses to be
altered, and one is either plain color or
smaller check than the other one, good
way to combine them is TO make baby
waist of tho plain color, and put the
plaid gipgham iuto wide waistband,
and to tie it up on the shoulders with
strings OF the plain goods attached to
the waistband. Tie shoulder knots
should be fastened by a safety pin con-
cealed under tho bows. A sash of the
plain goods will lock nicely tied around
the waist, with bow and ends at the
back.
A bingham of the house mothers,
which has fallen behind the style as to
sleeves, can be made to co excellent duty
as make over for the twelve year cid
daughter, and then mamma can get
material for the new gown for herself at
a little more cost than the new one other
wise necessary for the child.
A good way to make mothers dress
over for little Mary is 70 make pleated
yoke of dark blue giugham and attach
the full skirt of Bingham to this. The
sleeves may also be made Of the solid
color, and bias band of the plain
stitched above wide hem at the bottom
This little maids dress eau be wora loose
or tied round the waist with a sash OF
plain blue gingham.
In case OF making over mothers gown
as described, with the plain color, four
yards of the now, plain goods would cost
fifty cents, and this tritliBg outlay would
give it all the freshness in appearance of
new garment.
Since last summer SO many changes
have been introduced that almost every

can be altered very easily by making

rejuvenated by putting in ID vest front

inches below the waist line and put fan

making a houuce three inches wide of
the novelty silk and putting it round the
bottom OF the skirt, three inches above
the facing, catching it up on the left side
and fastening it with q circular knot of
the silk The cost of retrimming q suit
would be $3.50 for three yards of novelty
silk; that is, if the maker of these altera

ON THE FARM.
Practical Farm Hints.

The amount of moisture required dur
ing the season cannot be controlled by
farmers and gardeners unless some method
is devised to permit of an unlimited sup
ply of water and to carry it to the plants
without involving great expense. The
windmill will provide a sufficency Of
water for a garden or greenhouse, and
the problem has been how to apply
moisture without injuring the plants to
certain extent. 1t is we'll known that
the only way to procure crops is to grow
them under shelter, in a greenhouse, but
the difficulty has been that when the
moisture was applied directly on the
plants tho result was rot or mildew,
lettuce being attacked severely in some
instances, which is believed to be due to
the frequent application of water to the
foliage.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1894-04-14
ADVANTAGE OF sUB-IR IGATIoN.

By the above method the water goes
directly to the roots, the top soil not
being baked, and the changes of temper
allure do not SO readily affect planting
while the application of the moisture,
through the agency of tho tile,is done in
heater manner than with the watering
pot. Although the green house should
be used for forcing plants in order to
secure an early supply of fruits or vege-
tables, the method is also applicable to
tbs garden to secure large yields. If
drain tile is laid in rows and straw berries
are grown alongside of the lille, the yield
will be enormous if fertilizers are liber-
ally applied, as the strawberry crop is
controlled when the moisture can be ap-
piled as desired The system of sub-irri
gatloc is here alluded to with the object
of attracting attention to the irrigation OF
garden crops in the same manner, as a
wind mill and tank will supply all the
water that may be required for large
garden.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1894-04-14
SUB-IRRIGATI0N.

Ii the moisture can be applied to the
roots of the plants, as required, the diff
Guilty of too much moisture on the leaves
may be avoided. To test the matter the
Ohio Experiment Station used what is
known as the sub-irrigation method.
According 10 theory greenhouses should
be SO constructed as to permit of drain
age, but experiments demonstrate that
the theories are incorrect. Plants Of
different species, such az roses, violets,
carnations, lettuce, radishes, cucumb ers,
tomatoes and caulitiower were grown on
benches with water tight bottoms. The
result was that some crops grow wonder
fully, lettuce escaping the rot entirely,
maturing two weeks earlier, aud yielded
twice the weight of crops. Tomatoa did
not give as good results as some othar
kinds, however. The method is simple
The benches should have watertight
bottoms. A few laths are nailed Cd the
bottom OF the bench ana cement spread
over the laths. Drain tile of % inch
diameter is laid on the cement two feet
apart III the rows, and six inches or more
of soil is then placed over tho tile so as to
form seed bed. Water is then poured
quickly into tie ends Of the tile, which
finds its way into the soil, the joints OF
the tile not being tight.
