Protect Cows From Flies.


If cows could be protected in sum-
mer from flies it would undoubtedly
be a means Of largely increasing the
milk flow and save much annoyance
in milking. Prof. G. M. Weed of the
New Hampshire agricultural expert
ment station gives the following meth
DDS Of preventing the attacks of the
horse-fy, which, we presume, would be
equally effective for any other kind of
fly. 1t is simple and worth trying:
The most satisfactory way of pre-
venting the attacks of the horse-f1y is
to apply to the cattle some substance
that serves as a repellant. We have
experimental with a number of ma
terials and find that the best results
are obtained by the use of a cheap oil
such as fish oil or crude ~cottonseed
oil-to which q small amount of car
bolic acid or pine tar has been added.
Apply rather lightly to the cattle by
means of q paint brush, a sponge or
even a woollen cloth. Such a combina-
ton Immediately drives off the flies
and remains in a condition to keep
them off for about q week. This is a
very simple remedy; it should be ap-
piled whenever the flies become troub-
lesome.
Either Of the following formulas are
recommended for this purpose:
1. Crude ~cottonseed or fish oil, 2
parts; pine tar, 1 part.
/, 2. Crude ~cottonseed or fish oil, 100
parts; crude carbolic acid, 3 parts.
In either case these substances are
to be mixed and applied as described
above.

A woMAN,s DESK.
Keeping 1t in order 9Need Not he
Troublesome.

Keeping 1t in order 9Need Not he
Troublesome.
A woman need not be 'literary'
nor a social queen to have enough writ
ing to do to make the care of ''papers'
a nuisance. So, too, though she does
not have a priceless mahogany desk,
with Dresden and silver fittings, she
can have lots of bother from the desk
she has, unless she practices a trick
or so in keeping it in order. 1t is time
saved to reft penholders with fresh
pens once a week. Tie one penholder
and n sharpened pencil to the desk,
letting the string be long enough to
not interfere in the use Of the other
articles. This trick is the only known
one that insures the presence of these
necessary articles on the desk. If a
woman will anchor a pair of scissors
in the same way she deserves to be
both wise and happy.
The fewer fittings a desk has the
better. A strip of ribbon or blue den
i'm tackled down by the ends at the
back of the desk and then divided into
compartments by rows of tacks, will
serve nicely instead of a dozen or more
movable fittings. Into narrow spaces
one can tuck pencils, paper cutters,
rules, sealing wax and stamps. Into
a wider n goes the quire or so Of
note paper in use, and next to it the
envelopes. Still another holds bills,
another the little fiat oiled paper strip
into which stamps are folded, the only
known way to keep them free from
sickness or loss.
For miscellaneous papers of too
great bulk to be SO disposed, the sort
that accumulate, must not be thrown
away and ought not to get mixed, but
which do and will lget mixed up all the
time, there is one trick that will sub
due them entirely. Keep a supply of
little spring clothes pins that will nip
securely different lots of papers accord
ing to your convenience and choice.
The biggest pile of miscellaneous pa
pers so nipped into separate punches
may be "tidied" by any strange hand
and yet not get mixed, which surely
is an advantage. If the punches are
numerous and further designation is
necessary, a line Of direction may be
written on the pin. This arrangement
is vastly better than the murderous
mounted spikes that are in the way
and look untidy.
A big square paper tackled to the
writing table is far and away better
than the most elaborate blotter folio

Trunks Like Dressers,

A new trunk that is finding favor
with many women who dislike the
lifting of heavy trays, or the turning
of the contents of a carefully packed
trunk topsy-turvey in order to reach
something placed in the middle or
bottom Of it, is constructed like a
dresser, with the trays like so many
drawers that can be drawn out as
easily as the drawers of a well-made
bureau. 1t has not the appearance of
a. piece of bedroom furniture, how
ever, when closed, rs the lid forms
part of the side of the trunk, locking
near the bottom. These trunks are
very strong and light, being clamped
with iron made of a cellulose fiber,
with the woodwork a three-ply veneer
The drawers run on metal slides.
