with strong washing soda, letting it

water from the weekly wash, hopping
or scrubbing may be emptied into
the funnel at m, and be carried off by
the drain. This funnel is of wood one
foot square at the top, tapering to the
diameter of pipe. The drain pipe
should be at least four inches in diam

fiv? or six rods from the dwelling, so
that the water will spread over large
area and quickly become absorbed.
sink outlet pipe should be one inch in

funnel also acts as ventilator for the
drain, and should not be located nearer

mented, is liable to leak, which will

THINGS TO CONSIDER.
What Farmers Should Grow for Mar
ket to Obtain Satisfactory
Pecuniary Results. -

This is a question that comes up for
consideration quite frequently in the
mind of the progressive farmer, and
especially at this season of the year,
when all the busy work is done and we
begin to look aboutto see what had best
be undertaken another year. In decid-
ing what crops to grow farmers do not
always consider the important item of
cost in taking them to market, which
is governed to no small extent by the
weight of the crop, as well as the dis
lance from market. The greater the
distance products must be transport
ed and the poorer the roads that are
to be travelled the greater the neces-
sity for producing stuff that is easily
marketed.
/ If one grows potatoes and sells them
at 40 cents bushel, the local price at
many towns this season, he must draw
125 bushels to market to obtain $50.
These 1875 bushels will weigh nearly
four tons. How many times they have
to: be handled, sorted and lifted the
farmer that grows them alonecan tell.
If he grows small fruits for the mar
ket and realizes, ten cents quart for
his product he is getting about $50 30 a
bushe1, or over 500 ton for what he
sells, or about eight times as much as
the potatoes brought him. Then there
is eight times the cost in wear and tear
of wagon and .hors4hesh j. as well as
muscular strength expended BY the pro pro
ducer. We have all sheard.of the farm
er's wife who tooksa basket of eggs to
the store on her arm and obtained more
money for.it than her husband did for
9 tWo-horse load of hay II tits not a
true story, it illustrates the point.
Almost every. day we see coming to
town small paper boxes not weighing
more than two or. three pounds, which
contain flowers that are sold for quite
as much money as a wagon1oad of some
kinds of farm products will bring. If
farmers would pay little more atten-
ton to the production Of these items
which are in demand at high prices they
would make more money than they do.
It would cost no more to arrange for
the production of flowers that would
sell for one dollaz: a pound than pigs
that bring three cents a pound. Farm

PROFIT IN,spHULFRY:
Farmers Can No. Lon9erJ Afford 10
Hatch Chickens without the
Aid Of IncubatOrs.

The farmer who raises more than 100
chickens cannot: afford to hatch. them
with. hens. The.ayerage farmer should
arrange with his wife and girls to
hatch as many chickens as can be cared
for: during the coming season. The
farmer has every advantage as a poul-
try raiser over the man who makes a
speciality of it. He produces nearly ev.
erything that is*needfu1 in the way OF
feed and can provide shelter for an un-
usually large number very cheaply by
making straw houses or other make
shifts for temporary use. s.Ft
Where this plan is followed in cuba
tors and brooderss are. used to greatest
advantage. These machines have been
SO nearly perfected that boy or girl
of average intelligence can care for
them without difficulty. The children
take an interest in such things and soon
learn how to operate them perfectly,
land once this knowledge is acquired the
presence of an incubator or two is cause
for,very little extra work.
When an incubator is used the chicks
all come out at one time, and, being of
one age, have an equal chance to grow
up. It is no more trouble to take care
OF 100 chickens in good brooder than
it is to watch an old hen with three
chickens. An incubator is much easier
to care for than a lot of sittinghens, and
it is reliable in every, way. 1T does not

pensable and to go without a mowin g

times. The man who would make his
poultry most profitable must use an in

These machines are cheaper than ever
and better than ever. No class of ma
chinery has been improved to greater
extent than these and they are now so
perfect, that the old claim that "a child

The cloudlike silk muslin that prom
ises to be the most fashionable sum-
mer ball gowns have full-blown roses
in two shades of pink or in yellow aud
red on their faint blue, deep cream or
lemon-tinted backgrounds. Zephyr
ginghams and piques, with damask
stripes or flower patterns, are going
to have the first choice in wash goods,
while all the colored cotton goods
from Scotland show small plaids in
two colors with shirred stripes.
Soft sashes of gauzes, with rufied
ends, appear on some of the new
gowns, falling in front or at one side,
which is prophetic of Empire styles
again, and gauze scarfs. 1t is prom
ised, too, that the skirts of the thin

overdress or tunic variously shaped
at the bottom and rounded up over

Lace insertions, arranged in various

The Southern Girl.

In concluding an editorial inspired
by Southern girls regret that she
cannot go to college, Edward Box. in
the Ladies' Home Journal, has this to
say of the girls of the Southland:
1.-THE Southern girl is surrounded bv
life far truer and more conducive
to self-development than girls living
in other sections, because social con-
ditions are more normal. Her life is
healthier because it is saner, and her
mind, by reason of it, is clearer and
more constantly at rest. The rush of
life of the North and West is not SO
stimulating as many Southern girls
suppose. On the contrary, it wears
women out as often as it develops
them. In no part of our country do
women look younger at maturity than
in the South. To the Southern girl,
too, nature blooms in profusion as
she does nowhere else. The natural
history which the Northern girl must
get ou. of books the Southern girl
gets direct from natures own hand.
She is born of a sell as rich and
colorful in romantic history as is the

literature OF Spain. This she receives
as natural heritage. Her parents
are, and her ancestors were, among
the best types of American chivalry
and American womanhood. She hears
but one language spoken, and that is
her own. If there is the introduction
of another tongue is is French, and
with these two sbS can travel the
world over and never be at a dis
advantage. The religion which she
learns from her mother is the highest
and best because it is untainted with
modern revelations. The truest
friend and safest teacher in highest
living girl can have is her mother,
and in the South mothers have way
of finding time for their daughters
and being companions to them. The
Southern father is fond of his children,
and proves it by his presence at the
domestic hearth after his days bust

The Summer Shirt

Some pretty shirt-waist models
have been designed for the summer,
some of them showing deep sailor
collar, joined to pointed revers that
reach the belt in front; the entire
piece of woven guipure lace, with
cuffs and girder to match. These
trimmings adorn pique, linen and
duck waists, as we'll as those of
taffeta, foulard, or wash silk; other
styles are trimmed with very hand
some Swiss or Irish point en-
broideries. Again waists are seen
with removable vests, stock collars
and girdles of Liberty satin. Besides
these are countless morning vests
formed of India linen, percale, dimity,
bishops lawn, fine qualities of dotted
and crossbarred muslin, plain and
fancy swivel silk and zephyr gingham.
The majority of these resemble as
nearly as possible boys shirt-waist,
with single plait down the front, a
few gathers on each side of this plait
and on the shoulders, and double
pointed yoke on the back. The regular
shirt sleeve is shaped with but little
tulness on the shoulder, and the
entire model is small and extremely
plain.

Tt has often been urged, but it
seems well to emphasize by much
repetition that women of generous
proportions should invaribly renounce
all of these round-waisted styles, no
matter how beautiful they appear on
some other slenderer figure, or how
universally the rage for them in
creases. Adopting these waists is not
u matter of age, for the young, the
mature, and the elderly find them
comfortable and useful. 1t is simply
a matter of figure, and, for women in
clined to stoutness, there are many
close, trim, ard attractive models
which make them look better and
slenderer than any of the ''rcund''
styles, festooned with net, draped
with lace, and finished with circlinG
ribbon, bells and bows, which cut of
the apparent length of the waist by
two or three inches.
