the time necessary for the perfect prep
aration of hides. Recently it has been
found that canaigre, or sourdock, pos
sesses properties which show that it is
indicated by nature for preserTative
purposes. 1t is impossible to burn
leather in its solution. The cells of
hide will absorb enough to tan it in
~ hours and will take no more. In a
few hours, varying with the substance
to be treated, the fannie acid in the
canaigre will have done its work, saw
ing three months time and deal of
labor. The cost of planting, cultivat-
ing, irrigating and harvesting an acre
of cauaigre is estimated at $3.50. The
yield is from IL to 90 tons an acre On
new land and rises with cultivation.
The returns vary from sos to SIS per
ton, sliced. Drying shrinls the prod

considerable care and some eXpendl
ture. 1t matters very little to child's
future well-being that at some period
of its childhood the sleeves of jacket
have been too short or the skirt OF a
frock too scant; but the compression
of feet in boots too tight, or, even
worse, too short, may be cause of tor
merit in future years. Infinitely bet
ter are bare feet than clumsy, heavy, ILL
shapen boots. In the winter the feet
may indeed want some protection from
cold and wet, but during great part
of the year children may safely and
BEAUTIFULLY go barefooted.
Some mothers, by no means of the
poorest class, are convinced that the
comfort and symmetry of the feet in
maturer years are largely to be gained
by giving them freedom during the
time of growth. At very fashionable
marriage some time ago child brides
maid was seen silk-robed, but shoe
less.
And if shoes are undesirable, how
much more so are gloves? Except the
thick woolen ones for winter warmth,
gloves should be banished from q
child's wardrobe.-Pall Mall Gazette.

LIVE STOCK POINTERS.

Feed cattle by cutting up the shocked
ccrn. 1t is economical.
The hog :iat quietly eats and keeps
on eating is the hog for profit.
Defective evesight is often a cause
of sbyirg, and the whip will not help
that, will itP
One ounce of Scotch snuff to pound
of grease makes a good application for
lice on cattle.
Shorts, corn and oats, with some oil
meal, will keep the fall pig growing
during the winter.
Feeding cattle on large scale can
not possibly be done so economically
as on a small scale.
1t is best to feed cattle only long
enough to get fair profit on them
and then let them go.
Lice and worms are the hogs great
enemies. When changing hogs from
one. feed to another it should be done
with some care, as well as with other
animals.-Western Plowman.

Alaskan Indians are very fond Of
dancing, and, although some of them
understand the dances of modern civili-

The latter beats drum, which is gen

The Coming MuR.

Muffs come in the exaggerated sizes
this year, but the most popular mutf
will be of medium size. 1t will have
plenty of room for the hands, and room
for a circulation of air, but it is not gil
gantic. Very large mutfs require GER
tain style in the woman and the gowns
to which they form an accompaniment,
or they are huge, ugly monstrositites.
Many muffs in fancy shapes will be
used. They require good clothes to
carry them Off; they are not pretty with
plain gowns, for plain use. The green
velvet wrap previously mentioned, had,
in addition to the hat, pretty little
fancy muff of the velvet to go with it.

Besides keeping the cow stable clean

Thorough annual cleaning, and there is

process the whole stable should be
emptied and all remnants of fodder,
manure and litter be carried away. The
whole stable is then to be kept clean.
including corners, cracks and crevices
in walls and floor, and all cobwebs be
removed. The sweepings and litter
should be buried beneath the manure
heap or plowed under. II there is NOW
for coarse folders over the stable. with
cracks or holes in the ceiling above
the stalls, any remaining fodder in the
NOW should be removed and all swept
clean. After cleaning the stable scrub
all woodwork with hot water and then
whitewash it. By withdrawing, the
stable becomes lighter and more cheer
full. the woodwork is preserved. and the
