MOVEMENTS Of GUILD.
Now let Us see what have been the ccndi-
tions of the past which have made it profit
able to export gold. Here some facts
from the abstract of the reports of the
treasurer of the United States. From 1873
to 1887 the value of our excess of exports
of merchandise and products over imports
was si,3s1, ,se4. $50. During the same ten
years our excess of gold imports over ex-
ports of gold was sl9S, ,634. 76i Here we have
a fair Illustration of the reason why we
do not lose gold; that when the balance Of
trade is in our favor we need no gold TO
settle balances abroad: that when we are
selling more than we are buying other ma
tions have TO settle their balances with us
in gold. and hence we accumulate gold
rather than lose IL.
AS further illustrations of this matter
take the ten years 1864 to 1913. inclusive. "A
great debt-paying period after the war
During this period the value of the excess
OF imports of merchandise and products
over exports was S1.0i7 ,069 219 and during
the same ten years our excess of exports
of gold over imports of gold was $470. .2S7. .55e
These two periods, one showing the cause
of the accumulations of gold and the other
why we lose gold. are the primary or chief
things to be considered in the Improvement
or changes in our trade and revenue sys-
TENS so as TO retain our gold The produc-
tion OF gold in the United States is now an
nually between si0000.0O0 and $50 900 0o0

our commercial system as will give us a

FASHION NOTES.
Some stylish Conceptions in Ladies'
Hcadwear.

A'beautiful shoulder cape is made of
ruffles of silver-gray chiffon. These are
lined with black, and there is trim
ming of velvet ribbon deliberately EN-
broidered with jet. This trimming is
in long tabs that extend from the yoke
to the lower edge of the cape. There
are nine of these tabs. Around the edge
of the yoke there is full ruflle of the
chiffon edged with black lace about
half an inch wide. The collar stands
up around the threat and is made of al
ternating.<ov of chiffon and black lace
edging.
The sailor hat seems to have come to
stay. There is larger sale of this
style of hat than any other in the mar
ket, and while the sailor is not as be-
coming as some other styles, it is SO
convenient and manageable and always
ready, for the average woman likes TO
have it about and will wear it even
though some other style might suit her
better.
\ simple hat has n fiat brim and
slightly sloping crown, around which
are fold upon fold of velvet and ribbon
alternating. This trimming covers the
entire circumference of the crown. At
one side is very large plated fan of
guipure lace stiffened with almost in
visible wires.
A simple and pretty hat is fancy
straw with medium height crown, and
brim slightly rolled up at the sides and
finished with putting of silk muslin.
The crown is almost entirely concealed
by corn flowers, 4 large cluster of which
stands up at one side.
a stylish tourists hat is in modi-
fed sailor shape with a brim of fancy
braid The trimming is of crimped
plaitings of chiffon, which are arranged
so as to be in the shape of poppies.
There are three handsome wings at
one side of the crown.
An effort is being made to do away
with the wide-brimmed hat. How far
it will succeed time alone can tell.
Large hats are becoming to the major
ity of women, and the feminine inclina-
ton is to stick to becoming things at all
hazards.-N. Y. Ledger.

To Preserve saucr Krnut.

Select in November, when cabbage is
ripe, nice large, firm heads, remove the
outer leaves and core and shave the
cabbage as fine as possible with cab
bage machine. Cover the bottom of a
well cleaned keg or barrel with cab
bage leaves, then put in one heaping
bushel basketful shaved cabbage, sprin-
kle over handful of salt, then stamp
the cabbage down with stamper, con-
tinue with the cabbage and salt till the
keg is full, stamping down each layer;
allow one pound lof salt for 90 large
heads of cabbage, lay piece of muslin
over the cabbage and board with n
heavy stone on top the muslin. A good
plan is to nail two boards together and
saw them round in the shape of a cover,
which should be about half inch
smaller than the top of the key or bar
rel, SO it will lay on the cabbage and
press it down. Let the kraut stand 4S
hours, then see if the cabbage is COW
cred with brine; if not, make brine
of salt and water, about two tablespoon
fuls salt to one gallon of water, and
pour it over the cabbage. Place the key
or barrel in the cellar, and look at it
every three or four days and see to it
that the cabbage is always covered with
brine, otherwise 1t will not keep

money invested In the construction of
the roads, after going through numer-
GUS channels of trade, would find its
way back to the pockets of those from
whom 1t had been taken for a good pur-
pose.
There should be permanently EN-.
ployed few men with pick and shovel,
to make necessary repairs, drain the
roads after heavy rains, etc. This
would save considerable money 20 every
town, and our roads would by rational
work always be in good condition. Now,
as mentioned before, great deal could
be done to improve our roads; but such
statements as we often hear-that "the
roads are in worse condition than they
were so years ago." is surely over
drawn. This is comparatively new
country and cannot compare with Euro.
pean countries. During the past A.
years, in our own town, we have cleared
the land from heavy timber, stones and
stumps, drained mud holes and swamps,
built substantial barns and houses,
raised blooded stock of all kinds, and
kept the roads in ms good condition as
we know how. But laws that were all
right in colonial times should be abol-
ished, that '"e may keep up with the
progress of the times.-A. Selle, In
Rural World.

Training ID the Heifer.

Train up a heifer in the way she
should go, and when she becomes COW
she will not depart from it. With her
first calf, the young COW should be
kept in milk as long as possible, because
that is what she is wanted to do all of
her productive life. If she dries up
early. the next year the habit will make
an effort to repeat itself, and the next
also, and also the next, and so on. By
careful feeding and encouraging treat
ment persuade the Inexperienced heifer
to continue in milk as long as she will
agree to, and the next season have her,
by similar means, exceed her previous
record, until three or four weeks of
drought is all she will demand.-Da-
kota Field and Farm.
