In spite of the fact that all the smart
dressmakerss are sending out costumes
this season made with skirt and waist,
and also that the best fashion advance
notes tell us that separate waists are no
longer fashionable, there have never
been so many different styles of waists
and skirts worn that have absolutely
no reference one to the other. Perhaps
the very number worn is the reason
that the fashion is said to be on the
wane. In the meantime, particularly
while hot weather lasts, women are Ger
tain to make the best of this most con-
venient style of dressing, and conse.
quently the manufacturers of the fancy
shirts have taken advantage of the pres
ent demand, and are turning out guam
titles of most bewitching and attractive
shirt waists, while the more elaborate
waists of lawn, cambria, etc., made not
only by machine, but by hand, are, to
use trade expression, flooding the
market. The plainest kinds of shirts,
made in the cheapest materials, but of
surprisingly good cut, are sold ready
made for less than dollar There are
other shirt waists - the pattern of
which is much the same, but of course
better cut and titted-which are sold
for several dollars. It is easily seen,
therefore, that there are enough to

THE CHERRY TREE.
1t Needs But Little Pruning, Hut Re-
uuires Heavy Doses of MINI
eral Fertilizers.

When a cherry tree gets into .ull
bearing and is regularly picked each
year, enough twigs are broken off dur
ing the harvesting of the crop to prune
the trees sufficiently. But if the tree
grows on low, wet ground it often
runs too much to wood, the fruit either
does not set or rots, because it is too
much shaded by leaves, which are
caused by too luxuriant growth. In
such cases severe root pruning and cut
ting out the center limbs while in leaf
will sufficiently check growth, so n uch
that the tree will both blossom fully
and will also bear fruit. After the
cherry tree begins bearing, the wastage
of twigs broken off in harvesting the
crop checks wood growth sufficiently
to make the tree bear full crops there
after. But it must be remembered that
so much of the cherry is in the stone,
which requires heavy doses of potash
to perfect it, that if the cherry tree is
not literally supplied with potash ard
other mineral fertilizers it will soon
begin to die. The cherry tree never
fails to bloom and set fruit so long
as any part of it lives. It prunes itself
by letting enough of it's limbs die so
that what remain can produce as much
and as fine fruit as they ever did. Most
of the larger fruita trees stop bear
ing as they grow old. The cherry tree
keeps on bearing SO long as any part
of it is aive.-American Cultivator.

FUTURE OF OYSTER FISHING.
Submarine Boats Will Soon BE EN-.
plOyed in Dredging the
Bivalves.

The submarine boat will revolution.
ize the oyster industry. When in Chesa-
peake bay cruising the old Argonaut
frequently settled down on oyster beds
and, with the permission of the owners,
procured all the oysters desired by
reaching down through the sea door.
The new Argonaut can employ this
method of gathering oysters, rising to
the surface when her diving-room is
full, or send out divers, who can place
the oysters collected in baskets or re-
ceptacles, which those on the surface
can haul up. When bays or rivers are
frozen over and oyster men cannot ply
their trade the Argonaut can go under
the ice. Fishing can also be carried on
easily on the bottom with nets, for the
fish have no fear of the object they evil
IDENTIFY consider whale and swim from
every direction toward the glare of the
electric lights shining through the
ports. Sponge fishing will engage the
attention of the first successful SUBJ
marine voyagers. Goodsponges are be-
coming dearer, for the supply in shall
low water is running short The divers
cannot go deeper than rs feet and the
best sponges are found in deep water.
To this deep water the Argonaut will
go, and, gathering the finest sponges,
put them on the market at price no
greater than that paid for the common
varieties. She will also try pearl fish
ing, now conducted at an enormous ex-
Pense OF life, for by strange freak of
nature pearl oysters are generally
found in localities where bad weather
prevails and hurricanes and typhoons
are frequent. These the Argonaut, I'M
der the water, need not fear, and her
divers, instead of gathering up the oys-
tiers by the single handful, can gather
them by the bushel-Lippinoott's Mag

sUNKHAZER FLIES or MAINE
Warse Than Jersex MosSsitoss ana
Kiasing Bugs Have No Chance
.es. with Them.

!. Since reading in the newspapers Of the
Iissing bug and his doings all the people in
rural Maine have taken to capturing buGy
and insects of all sorts and bringing the spec
mems to town for examination BY newspa-
per men and naturalists. Counties are the
kinds of bugs that have been taken TO
Bangor in bottles, boxes and preserve jars,
and the captors all seem to be Sorely dis
appointed when told that instead Of the gen.
uine skisser they have moth killer, 4 lace
winged fly, or something quite common and
harmless.
A man came from Veazie to Bangor the
other day with a ferocious-l looking bug
corked up in preserve jar and claimed the
credit Of having captured the first kissing
bug in that part of the country. It was not
the famous kissing bug that he had, but a ma
tive bug somewhat resembling small lob
ster with wings.
81 don't care hang," declared the Veazie
man, when told that he must try again.
"These fellers kin lick the stufin' out Of
Sunkhazers, and that's what none of your
common bugs kin do" t$@s5
Not many people living far away from
Bangor know what "Sunkhazer" is like.
It is a ferocious big fly that infests the fats
and meadows about Sunkhaze deadwater,
place in the Penobscot river where the
are RATED. The Sunkhazers are the pest
of the loggers, upon whom they feast to
| their hearts content, and nothing can drive
| them away. They are four times the size of
| the famed mosquitoes of Jersey, and any
Maine man. will back one of them against .
dozen kissing bugs in a fair stand-up fight.
Maine folks have, probably, no kissing bugs,
but so long as the Sunkhazers survive they
will not feel lonesome.-N. Y. Sun.

VALUABLE SUGGESTION.
Roads without Muck Trouble
or Expense.

It is easily possible for farmers to
keep country roads in q much better
condition than most Of them are at
present. The individual can afford to
do road mending on the same principle
that he repairs fences and buildings,
1T pays me-" And land owner ought
to feel as much shame, even guilt, be-
fore the general public over a mudhole
that can be drained, or over a choked-up
sluice along his premises as he ought
over neglected cattle or display of
filth. -. IT,. liz ...
It is not necessary to wait for the
woodworking season to come. The
most profitable, common sense work
can be put in little at a time, if at
the right time. Drainage is the begin
ming and the ending of the whole mat
ter, if roads are to be roads and not
sloughs. Watering troughs and hill
side springs are common causes of
standing water, yet it is a very simple
matter to direct the water flowing from
them in the way it should go. A stone,

choke it up till it is worse than nothing.
Five minutes work would send the
water rushing through its proper chan
mel. It is not uncommon to see water
following the wheel rut for rods, when
a man with half an eye can also see
that mere cut through the ridge at the
edge of the road would lead the water
into the ditch, perhaps down a bank.
Dropping into a bad hole or a soft
place few superfuous stones now and
then to keep the water out would work
a double-headed blessing to all passing
that way. Heaving out few stubborn
old stones from the track would work
detriment to the blacksmith and wag-
on maker, perhaps, but a big saving to
the farmer. If all such patching were
thus well kept up, the yearly toll of
public service would count more and
more toward the good roads of which
all are dreaming and talking. This
| view of the subject is no more than one
feature of practical farming, intelligent
economy, mere looking out for num-
| Der one, no matter how many others
are also benefted.-Orange Judd Farm

PRACTICAL DAIRY HINTS.

Keep the cow warm and dry.
Milk with clean, dry hands as quick
~ as possible.
Feed clean, bright food in variety to
produce good results.
Keep the cow clean by using plenty
OF clean, bright bedding.
Do not allow a COW to drink water
you would not drink yourself.
Own and milk good cows. If YOU
have poor cows send them to the
butcher.
Treat cows quietly and kindly; ex-
element affects the quantity and quail
ity of milk.
Never use or sell milk from diseased
or unhealthy cows. 1t is dangerous
even to feed it to the pigs.
The cornstalk, either shredded or in
ensilage, is one of the best feeds for the
cow. Hundreds of thousands of dol
lars worth of this feed are annually
lost.
In freezing weather, scald can COW
ers just before starting the milk for
the creamery. The cream will not
stick and freeze in them. Also cover
cans.

] HAIRLESS AND TAGLESS
But This Mexican Dog Had I Helpful
Friend When He Was Sore
" In Need.

A few afternoons ago, tall young
woman, very smartly arrayed, and with
an uncommonly large and varied as
sortment of clinking chatelaine articles
attached to an amethyst-incrusted gilt
belt, strolled down uptown Seventeenth
street, closely followed by tiny, shiv.
ering, bringing chihuahua dog. The
dog was collarless, but wore a belt har-
ness trimmed with cerise ribbon. He
did not permit himself to be left more
than two feet in the rear of his mistress
heels.
At one of the corners there was q
sudden rattle, and a Gagged wagon drew
up alongside the curb at the point
where the young woman and her dog
were walking. A big, black dog catch
er sprang from the rear of the Gagged
wagon, and in trifle less than no time
the pampered little Mexican dog was
whimperingly struggling in the meshes
of the dog catcher's net. The dog
catcher transferred the whining brute
from the net to the wagon, where lot
of large, coarse, common dogs were al
The young woman owner of the cap
tured chihuahua viewed the proceed
ings with all the GOODNESS in life. She
adjusted her eyeglasses carefully and
looked the dog catcher over from head
to foot Then she examined the plebeian
dogs in the wagon. The dog catcher
didn't know what to make of her con-
duct. He expected her to become hys-
terical and to frantically demand the
return of her pet. But there didn't ap-
pear to be any hysteric in her. She
walked up to the dog catcher.
what do you think you are going to
do with that dog of mine?" she in
quired of him in the most matter-of-
fact tone imaginable.
"Ah's dun swiped him, miss, 'codin'

"What for?" asked the young woman.
"'Cause dey amt no license on him, -

woman, quietly. "Well, you can just

''You can look at it now" replied the
captured pups mistress, unshapping
one of the clinl<ing articles from her
chatelaine belt. ''It was among the
first of the years issue, as you'll see by
the number. I wear it myself because
the chilly metal gives Diaz cold in
the chest"
The dog catcher looked at the tag,
grinned sheepishly and reached in and
handed out the moaning Chihuahua to

PREHISTORIC MAN.
THIS Account Assures Us That He Had
Third Eye on the Top of
the Head.

Deep researches as to the structure
of the human body have recently fur
nished some startling facts regarding
changes which man is at present I'M
dergoing physically.
1t is believed that man was former
ly endowed with more teeth than he
possesses now. Abundant evidence ex-
lists that, ages and ages ago, human
teeth were used as weapons of de-
Tense. Internationally, traces of such
use are often revealed by sheer. The
teeth are sometimes barred, dog-like,
ready, as it were, for action.
The practice of eating our food
cooked and the disuse of teeth as
weapons are said to be responsible for
the degeneration that is going on.
The wisdom teeth, in fact, are disap-
pearing. Human jaws, found in re-
puted paleolitic deposits, have wisdom
teeth with crowns as large as, if not
larger than, the remaining molars.
In ancient times short-sighted SOL
der or hunter was almost an impossi-
bility; to-day, whole nation is afflict-
GU Will uc1cCtlVc F1SlOu. IL Is almost
certain that man once possessed third
eye, by means of which he was enabled
to see above his head. The human eyes
formerly regarded the world from two
sides of the head. They are even now
gradually shifting to more forward
position.
In the dim past the ear-fap was of
great service in ascertaining the direc-
tion of sounds, and operated largely in
the play of the features. But the mus
cles of the ear have fallen into disuse,
for the fear of surprise by enemies no
longer exists.
Again, our sense of smell is marked
ly inferior to that of the savages. That
it is still decreasing is evidenced by OBJ
servations of the olfactory organ. But
the nose still indicates tendency to
become more prominent-Cincinnati

falling back into place of their own
weight. A very little, slope to the
trough will carry the water from one
end to the other. Until one has tried
the experiment of keeping water con-
stantly before his cows, thus giving
them the chance to drink whenever
thirsty just as is the case when the
animals are at pasture-he will not
realize how much better his stock will
thrive and produce flesh or milk than is
the case when the stock is watered but
once, or, at most, twice, day. In the
latter case, if an animal does not hap
pen to be thirsty at watering time, it
must go until the next journey to the
trough is made-perhaps "a hours dis
tant.-N. Y. Tribune.

Spraying and Its Effects.

The fact is not generally understood
that it requires two or three seasons
growth of healthy foliage on fruit trees
to insure fruit production. The first
year, though the spraying has pre-
vented fungous attacks, both the tree
and its foliage lack the yigor which
trees in health should have. It is like
" that injury to the foliage lessons the
vigor Of the tree roots so that they
will not send up the amount of sap re-
quired for trees in full vigor of leaf.

MIXERS AND MILKING
Right Proportion for the Aver
age Farm Employe.

There seems to be great deal of
discussion among the farmers in differ
ent localities nowadays in regard to
the subject of good mixers. The re-
mark that it is now almost impossible
to find good mixers is quite frequent
ly heard among dairymen. This is a
great mistake, says a writer in Rural
New Yorker. I thoroughly believe that
there are Just as good mixers in this
and other localities as there ever were,
if not better.
The farmer who depends on day
hands for his help, as general rule,
is the one who complains most bitterly
in regard to this matter. The average
man who is hired by the day will not
milk even if he can. Wherever or when
ever find a good month hand, one who
stays on the farm continually, one who
is not constantly listening for the
sound of the six o'clock whistle, one
who does not 60 to town every night,
l find good mixer.
A cow should be MIXED as quickly
as possible. A good mixer can milk II
COWS an hour. The muscles of the fore
arm, wrist and hands of a good mixer
must be we'll developed; therefore, as
rule, women are poor mixers. They
require too much time to milk a COW.
The evil resulting from this practice
is that the cows do not readily give
down their milk. Some farmers ex-
pect man to do too much of this work.
The number of COWS that man milks
should depend on the amount and ma
ture of other labor that he performs.
AS rule, I do not believe that a man
should be allowed to milk more than
six COWS.
