Earrings Again rashionabIc.

Those who obeyed the dictates OF a
former fashion and renowned ear
rings can now properly show their
allie glance TO the tickle goddess 10y
again wearing these personal adorn-
meuts. Whether this revival is q
passing fancy or not. certain it is that
many ultra Questionable women are
again seen with flashing gems in their
ears. AS the liItio hooks OF almost
invisible wire that piuch the lobe Of
the ear loosely are liable, while the
woman dances, to become loosened
and lost, it follows that amazingly
few earrings are made up of genuine
gems. There is no loss of brilliancy
because imitation pearls, diamonds
and ruhies are used.
Although elderly women have re
sumed the wearing of their sub
stantial and valuable jewels, the
younger ones have adopted the circlet,
or Neapolitan hoop. \ thread of

Separate Corn and Clover siIo..

+. III. King, OF the Wisconsin
Station, believes that it may be found
best under some circumstances to
make the corn and clover silage in
separate silos or separate compart-
ments of the same silo. Such an ar
rangement would make it possible to
practice definite Attenuation or
change Of feed both for the sake of n
change of diet and more nearly bal
anced ration.
But to do this perfect system of
feeding would have to be followed,
aud 1t would be further necessary to
arrange the two silos so that the com
bined feeding surface would equal
that Of single pit. The corn silo
would have the larger capacity where
ever corn can be produced to good ad-
vantage; still a large amount of clover
should be produced annually in rota-
ton, aud this should be fed as n rule
in preference TO simply turning it un-
der for green manure.

ter sells itself, and in any season it
will find customers when low grades
are a drug on the market. Conse-
quently 1T is the only kind of hay
that tho farmer can consclentiously
strive TO provide.
But prime hay must consist Of first
class timothy, cured aud kept in the
best possible way. II must be free
from mould, stain, doors or any other
defects. If one has a fine timothy
field it will pay to devote considerable
time and labor to cutting and curing
it. In the end all the extra labor will
be paid for
But as there are many fields OF
grass that will not make primo tim
othy hay, 1t is 4 question, sometimes,
what to do with it. If there are in
dications of good market, it will pay
to give as much attention TO curing
this hay as the best timothy, for the
grades approximating prime timothy
sell only for few cents a hundred
weight less. \ good deal of the final
valuation of this hay will depend upon
the cutting, curing and packing for
market. This more often determines
the sellingpric of hay than the actual
condition of the grass before cutting.
But if the hay is Indifferent aud bad
in the field it will pay best to use the
land for something else. A rundown
hay fell is of little real value in
these days Of close competition.-W
