will make them look like new. Dresses
and cloaks for the little girls can be made
with but little trouble and scarcely any
expense, from cast off garments of the
older folks, and when the color is changed
with Diamond Dyes the made-oyers viii
look as though they We're fresh from the
dressmaker.
Diamond Dyes are made especially for
home use, and the plain directions on each
package make it impossible for even the
most inexperienced to have poor luck with
these dyes. They color anything, from rib
bons, feathers and scarfs to heavy coats
and gowns, and make perfectly non-fading
colOrs, even handsomer than those made
by the professional dyer.

SunflOwers in Russia.

The common sunf1ower, although ma
tive Of this country, is now more widely
cultivated and used for a greater variety
of purposes in Europe than here. In Rus
STA the seeds are parched and eaten much
as peanuts are eaten in this country.
They are also used as human fuod in 9th.
er regions. The seeds yield from Is to 20
per cent. of oil of good quality by cold
pressure, and considerably more, but of
poorer quality, by hot pressure. The oil
is employed for Illumination, for wool
dressing, in paints and in soap-making.
The cold pressed oil is also used for Gull
nary purposes, being highly valued in this
connection in Russia. The residue or
cake remaining after extracting the oil is
used as a stock food and as a fer
.tilizer. The impressed seeds are en-
Sployed as stock food and the stalks as
fuel. as a source of fiber and for paper
making. The ashes of the plant are rich
in potash and are therefore valuable as
Il fertilizer. and a yellow dye is made
from the flowers, which also supply abun-
tlant nectar for bees. The agricultural
department has recently issued report
on the subject of sunfiower culture, in
which It is stated that the conditions for
heagrowth Of this crop in this country are
such that it will probably be not greatly
