good thing there is speedily reproduced
in the American metropolis. The
young women are attired in white hats
and pantomime dresses, and the only
thing about them that savors the least
bit of an advertisement is the dainty
sash thrown over their shoulders with
the name of the firm upon it. They
go in skies and carry handbills-no, we

erybody wants one. They look hap
Ply, towel fed and well treated
so that people look upon them with
smiles Of approval. 1t might not seem
quite proper for six such charming
young women to parade the streets so
publicly without a chaperone, or an
escort, so a functionary of this sort is
provided in the form of a handsome
young man in uniform. He is rugged
up as nearly like an army officer as
possible without making him an ae-
tual counterfeit that the police might
seize. The swell looking escort walks
by the side of the line Of girls. He
supplies them with souvenirs to- dis
tribute from a big haversack, All the
while he keeps a sharp lookout that
no young gallants or rude cockneys
pay too much attention to his fair
charges. Six pretty girls to look out
for is pretty large task for any young
man, but this one manages admirably.
The secret of his control of them was
disclosed when New York merchant
in London accosted him one day last
month for an explanation about this
new departure in advertising. He fat
tiers them. "Sir, these are no ordi-
nary girls" he exclaimed, with pride.

with their mouths to the surface of the

height, so that plenty Of air gets in

OF shells or small stones. Thew look
pretty and the fish appreciate being
able to poke about among them for bits

to do and a little interest in life. Peo-
pie frequently make the mistake of
thinking that the fish get enough food

need feeding when in captivity. Pack

The demand for lambs in preference
to sheep is growing all over the coun-
try, and there is a constantly increas-
ing call for the 70 or S0-pOund lamb in
place of the larger sheep. There is
more profit to the feeder also as he
can get $3.50 for an SO-pOund lamb,
while the 100-pound sheep will bring
but $40.

Eastern Colorado farmers who do
not enjoy the benefits of irrigation are
well pleased with their efforts to grow
sorghum successfully and are going
to plant considerable of it this spring.
In growing sorghum the all import
ant point is to prepare the ground so
that it will, be moist and fairly clean
before the sorghum is sown. This can
be accomplished by fall blowing or
by early spring blowing, followed by
frequent borrowings. Do not sow the
seed until the ground and weather
| have both become warm. Sorghum is
pre-eminently a hot weather plant. If
sown too early the seed viii not ger
| inmate, or if 1t does it will grow but
feebly. In any case it grows slowly
at the first. but after a time the
growth Is very rapid. Use three pecks
of seed to the acre, sowing with a
grain drill. Let all the tubes be in use
| and bury the seed say two to three
inches deep. Some growers use light
slant tooth harrow just before the sor-
ghum comes up.
