TEACHING GEOGRAPHY.

An Englishman Objects Strongly to
the American Method.
II am well satisfied with the Ameri-
can method of education" said an En-
glishman residing in New York. "In
fact, for girls, especially, 1 consider that
it is better in many ways than the En-
glish system. do, however, object to
some Of the geographical ideas that
they have in regard TO England. Last
winter my little girl started to learn
about the states. From October until
May she drew maps Of each one, learn
ed about their towns, rivers, mountains
and commercial products until she had
them all at her fingers ends.
"That was all well enough, and |
greatly admired the thoroughness of
the teaching; SO this year, when she
told me that they were beginning on
England, Scotland and Ireland, / felt
quite pleased that she should learn all
about the dear old country, and promis-
ed myself a good deal of pleasure in
talking to her of my old haunts. Well,

farming. Gone succeeded IN doing -.
We know farmers whose yearly sales
were more In some Of those years than
their farms were valued at before the
war. We knew others who bought 1t
high prices about the close OF the war,
and found that AZ prices Of farm prod
uce went down they could not sell
enough to pay the interest on the mort
gage, and lost all they had. But farm
ers were not the only ones who made
money when prices went up. or lost
money when they went down. Manu-
facturers found themselves unable 70
sell their finished products for 40 much
as they had paid or agreed to pay for
their raw material. There Is lesson
In this for farmers. II there Is boom
and season Of high prices for farm
products, do not get excited over It,
with the expectation that 1t will last
forever. Do not contract obligations
that cannot be met II prices 60 back to
last years rates.-Exchange.

Floor Space in Poultry House.

More room is required in the poultry
house in winter than in summer, be-
cause during the warm season the fowls
can go outside, only requiring sufficient
room for roosting, but in winter they
need room for scratching when the
snow is on the ground. 1t Is the space
on the floor that is required and not on
the roost, for when a hen fixes herself
on the roost she will be quiet until
morning, but during the day she should
be kept busy. Ten fowls in poultry
house 10 feet square (making 100 square
feet are sufficient, but most persons
endeavor to double or even treble that
number, and the consequence is that
they keep too many fowls in proportion
to the area of floor spacc.-The Poultry
Keeper. ~ tuh

terfy bow was held by,a buckle, and the
long ends were made into another bow of
the same kind which appeared at the bust
line. Then the ends tucked away in the
belt.
Already it has come to the point where
woman should show pleats in some por-
ton of her new gown. One may with
good grace continue to wear a gown with
out pleats, but everyone is going to know
that it is not brand new. The pleated
skirt is fine selection for n new skirt,
and one is quite safe to go further and
have the bodice pleated, too. The left
hand model in the next picture is a safe
guide. 1t was delicate maize pastel
cloth, pleated as shown, and topped by a
yoke of white lace embroidered in maize,
this edged with white embroidered more
heavily with maize and gilt. At the OPP
posite side of the picture is another gown
Of the same general type, but in it the
princess effect from pleats above and be-
low the belt was more distinct. and its
material was black velvet. On the bodice
the folds narrowed to the waist, while
the skirt appeared to take up these same
folds and widen them to the foot where
they escaped to make tire flare. Between
the pleats CLEAN of satin showed. The
effect was simple, elegant and guar
anty of good dressmaking.
This gown would serve as q rich house
dress, or for high-necked dinner cos
tune. Daintier and calling for less ex-
penditure are the house dresses Of which
the second in this row was fair sample.
These may be either in any Of the soft
pastel cloths, or the pretty silks that are
worn all the year round. Narrow tuck
ing takes the place of pleating, and cord
ing and shocking are also seen. A pretty
effect is made by stirring at intervals,
allowing the material to be free between.
This idea is attractive now and is sure
to be elaborated when we come to the
lawns and chiffons of summer. In this
model the top Of the skirt pleats was
drawn into tiny tucks, and the tucking
was continued on pieces that passed over
the belt to make bodice finish. The length
ening of waist that resulted was consid-
cradle.
This fancy for pleats renews favor for
strapping which reaDpears in as asser-

can hang them with the head down,
and then stick sharp knife through
the neck close to the head, and let them
bleed. This causes the meat to be very
clear and white. After they are through
bleeding roll them up, one at time,
