habits; and sometimes it may be called
dairy instinct. Instinct is said to he
the sun of Inherited habits. This is
doubtless the best definition that can
he given of 1t. Hence the best dairy
communities are those where dairying
has been carried ON for generations.
Kindness, patience, painstaking, keen
observation and s~tcadfastness of pur-
pose are all important factors in pro-
ducing good results. If dairying is not
thought to be worth your best efforts,
let it alone by all means. Let it alone
If it is irksome to you. Devotion and
application to all enterprise begets a
love for it. or it should. and if it does
not. there | something wrong.
There Is a moral side to dairying.
Regular habits are acquired. Men who
keep cows must be at home at milking
time. Home Is a good place. Very
few good dairyntn are whisky-drink-
ers. Dairy communities, as a rule. fur
nish but little business for lawyers.
Dairyihg is educating and elevating. if

true of home acknowledgements

sound Dairy 1'aIk,

Suppose that a hard working farmer
were called upon to provide for four or
five strong. a~ble-bodied persons who
did not do enough to pay for their
board. There would be trouble on that
farm right away. and justly SO, for
both Sense and Scripture proclaim that
the man who will not work shall not
eat. Yet many a farmer, who would
quickly turn loafers away from his
own table, will tolerate worse lOafers
out in the barn. 1t is safe to say that,
in most dairy herds there are four or
five cows that do not pay for the food
they conSeume-tO say nothing of the
space they occupy, and the labor ex-
pended in caring for them. The rea-
son they stay. year after year, thus
eating up the farm profits, is that the
farmer is deceived, because he has NO
means of knowing which of his cows
are robbers. 1t is easy to pick out the
human loafer. because his individual
acts stand by themselves; but
where the work of the cows
is Jumped together, the indi
vidual fraud escapes. Babcacb
and Scales are the two detectives
needed to pick out the robber cows
Leave out the loafers.-Rulal New

Cuitiyating Color Personality

There is invariably sore one promi-
nent color tone, as well as a dominant
form, which a woman should accept as
the basic principle or suggestion for
every dress, hat or wrap with which
she adorns herself. And if she is uu-
able to discover it by intuition, she
should consult an authority on the sub
ject.
Artists are meeting this new demand
in the most cordial spirit, and are will
ing to work out individual schemes of
dress for their patrons. The result of
such labors is a "co1or card" on which
every varying tint tone is painted, with
sketches or photographs, embodying
the general type of costume suited to
the woman who consultS them.
The subject learns that her dominant
tone is yellow, blue or pink, as the case
may be, and, while she may modify or
intensity the color, she can never af-
ford to ignore or infringe upon it's
dominance.
Women pay literally to secure such
advice, especially from portrait paint
ers, and follow the direction as closely
as they would a physicians prescrip-
ton. The original card and sketches
are usually pinned on the dressing ia
bic, where they can be scanned several
times a day; copies are sent to the
modiste, who is never permitted to de-
viate from the rules laid down. The
really wise oma carriers with her a
third edition for reference on shopping
tours to avoid being beguiled into buy
ing exquisite novelties merely because
they appeal to her love of the beauti'
ful.
