FASHIONS FOR BABY.
DnintIness IL the Chief Feature to BE
Considered in the Making of
His Clothes.

Fashions in babies clothes seem
rather amusing, but there are changes
each new season in the manner and
details of the making. AS far as the
outlay of money goes, there is hardly
limit to the amount it is possible to
spend, but daintiness is the chief fea-
ture to be considerations the par
ents' circumstances and common sense
should surely limit the expenditure.
From six to ten long dresses COM
pose the usual outfit, some of them
simply made, some elaborately
trimmed. 1t is now the fashion to
short clothes at as early an age as
four months. French nainsook is the
favorite material for the finer dresses.
Just now the inevitable yoke in the
baby's gown is cut square, not quite
extending over to the arm size, and
edged with frill and beading. For
the filling in of the yoke there are
two pretty ways, both equally popu-
lar. One is rows of hemstitched tucks,
running from the neck downward, the
other alternate rows of lace and en-
broidery insertions, the embroideries
being often almost as fine and as trans
parent as the lace.
A pretty bib has scalloped upper
edge of shaped silk, trimmed on both
upper and lower edges by a full deep
ruffle of silk lace. The upper rart is
hand embroidered, and between the
outer and inner bib is placed tufted
silk heart-shaped pad of silk. Another
is made from fine linen hemstitched
handkerchief, folded iagonally-the
upper point is cut out v shape and
mbro:dered-and both edges lace
trimmed.
Night gowns are made from fine fan
mel or outing and have a drawing
string around the neck. Petticoats
are of fine flannel and button on each
shoulder by two tiny buttons instead
of down the back.
Little caps of lawn show much shir-
ring and cording, and some, especially
those of embroidered muslin. have a
lining of pale shade of thin silk.
The most fashionable thing in ba.
bies' shoes and stockings, for wear
with the first short dresses, are gray
suede shoes and stockings matching
exactly in color.
Pretty coats of bedford cord have
deep circular ruffles trimmed with
guipure LACE edging. In shorter coats
pretty model in pique has a very deep
rounding collar trimmed entirely with
rows of Hamburg edging alternated
by rows of satin ribbon.
A design in a bedford cord short
coat has three deep circular capes
each one edged with guipure lace.
For the basket covering, sheer white
lawn over pink or blue is the latest
the point d'esprit being also used. The
ruffle is trimmed with lace and rows
of baby ribbon and the jennings and
seams are finished by narrow lace
beading through which is run a ribbon

THE OLD DASH cHURN.
How II Can be Made 10 Do Excellent
Service for Ordinary Farm
Purposes.

There is n proper way to employ
almost every implement mentionable,
and dash churn is not to be excepted.
AS ordinarily used, however, much dis
satisfaction arises in that the butter
is not good or will not keep well, and
as a result the churn is soon thrown
aside for swing, barrel or box one.
Now, albeit the dash churn is not
as good as those just mentioned, where
one has an old-fashioned wooden dash
churn that is in good condition it is
hardly advisable in the majority of
cases to incur extra expense by casting
it aside for one of later date, 1t can
be made to do excellent service simply
by boring a three-fourths-inch hole at
the bottom, as shown in the accom-
panying cut, by which to draw off the
buttermilk and washing water.
This is the way to proceed: When
the butter reaches the granular stage

ed to give the tread suitable pitch.
Under one edge place friction roller
(c); a section of log may be used, con-
nected to tumbling rod (d). This rod
may be geared to the machinery at
will. Lead horse, COW, goat, sheep or
other animal onto the platform and
as it walks leisurely on the platform
just over the friction roller, power is
developed. In one described to me as
running two-man and four-girl wood
working shop in Massachusetts 70years
ago, the edge of the platform only
projected into the shop. On this edge,
inside the shop, stall was built. A lit
tie black cow, hitched to the manger,
contentedly trudged and munched her
hay with cheerful heart. The girls
divided their MONDAY lunch with
"bossy," who divided her milk with
them; the little shop throve, and all
went merrily in "them good OF days"

BUILDING UP A HERD.
How 1t Was Done, and Most Success
fully, Too, by n Dairyman
In Ireland.

An instructive illustration of the
manner in which the milk and butter
yielding capacities of dairy COWS may
be developed by careful selection is
afforded by some details recently given
publicity to in connection with prom
inent herd on the other side of the
channel. About dozen years ago the
milk of all the COWS comprised in this
herd-over 60 in number-was CAREFUL
ly analyZed. Nine of the cows were
found to be yielding milk showing over
per cent. of butter fat, % were
yielding over 4R per cent, II were
yielding over 4 per cent. and 23 were
yielding under per cent. From this
date onward calves were only kept
off the cows which yielded milk show
ing over Az per cent. of butter fat,
and the tribes of the others were grad
ually weeded out. By the aid of a
regularly kept milk record the prod
uct of every COW is known, and none
is kept for any length of time which
does not yield over 600 gallons per an
mum. By combining what is learned
from the analysis and the milking rec
ord and only keeping calves from COWS
whose produce is up to the standard,
alike in quantity and quality, the
milking properties of the cows have
been so improved that at present over
60 per cent. of its members are yield
ing milk showing over per cent. and
rs per cent. are yielding milk showing
over AZ per cent. of butter fat. This
result has only been attained by the
exercise of great care and scrupulous
attention in the selection of bulls, and
no sire is used without every inquiry
being made as to the milking records
of his female ancestry.-Dublin Ore

SCIENCE OF THE TOILET.
How the Women of To-day Manage

The modern maiden has learned in
an exquisite way the science of the

of this preservation is one that all
women should know; it surely is more
charming for the world to gaze upon a
fresh youthful face than upon a shriv-

locks than upon too scanty growth

wants she may be quiet enough. But
if placed in pasture where the food
is insufficient or too poor in quality
the quiet COW will soon develop rowing

fences in order to get at what she
likes. The COW that will not do this in
case of necessity is of little use for
