Fingerless Lace Gloves.

Last evening found Dolly busy with
some pieces of old lace founces. For
some time l watched her cutting, snip-
ping, taking up the threads and tying
little knots here and there to keep the
lace from travelling before l discovered
what she was doing, says writer in
the Minneapolis Times. Then at last,
when she had transformed one of the.
pieces into funnel shaped affair and
had pulled it over the hand and fore-
arm concluded she was making
gloves. These lace gloves she tells me
are to be the rage this summer for
dinner and garden parties. They are
fngerless and may be elbow or should
er length. At the stores they arerold
for $50, $50 and even 500 pair but
Dolly says that any girl who is skill
full can make her own lace mittens.
Silk mitts will also be worn, suppose.

A Curloa. Chimes. Custom.

According to the rule sanctioned by
centuries of Chinese observance, no
document can have the authority Of
the imperial throne of China unless It
bears a red spot placed there by the
sovereign. To the Grand Council the
Tsung-li-Yamen and all other depart
ments Of state take their business, and
the grand council in its turn considers
all documents and attaches to each
piece Of red paper on which its own,
decision is written. Each morning at
daybreak the grand council proceeds
to the palace to submit the papers to-
the sovereign, who, as each document
is produced, signifies approval by maxi
ing small spot with brush on the
markin Of the red paper. With the
red spot upon it the paper is the most
sacred thing in the world to China
man; without it it may be torn. to
shreds with impunity.-Leslie's Week

Black Spanish.

The Black Spanish is one of the old
est varieties of domestic poultry. Their
name has been identified with the in
dustry for hundreds of years. and
their practical worth on the farm has
long been of much value. Their
naughty bearing, large red comb and
wattles, and the white face and lobes
peculiar to the breed, contrasting with
their glossy black plumage. render
them most striking fowls. White
faced Black Spanish. have long been
favorably known for their exceptional
ly fine laying qualities. The oldest of
the nonsitting varieties, they still
maintain an unsurpassed record. The
pullets are early layers, averaging $50
to $50 eggs per year, the hens begin
ming somewhat later after melting,
but compromising for any loss of guam
tity by the increased size of the egg,
while hens and pullets alike are we'll
above the average for winter laying.
Their eggs are large and white and OF
good flavor. Their white face is a dis
tinguishing feature, and should be
long, smooth, free from wrinkles, ris-
ing we'll over the eyes in an arched
form, extending toward the back of the
head and to the base of the beak, COW
ering the cheeks and joining the wat
ties and ear lobes, the greater the
depth Of surface t1e better, and should
be pure white in color. The color OF
plumage throughout is rich, glossy
black, and any gray in plumage is con-
sidered serious detect. Shanks and
toes are blue, or dark leaden blue.
Comb is single and bright red in col
or; wattles. bright red, except the in
side of the upper part, which is white;
earlobes, pure white. No standard
weight is given for Black Spanish:
they average in size that of the Leg
horn and Andalusian.

Alfalfa In the Hog Ra ton.

At the Oklahoma station alfalfa pas
ture, with and without the addition of
grain, was studied with a number of
pigs. Other forage crops we1, also
tested, including sugar beets, COW
peas, sorghum, sweet potatoes and pea
nuts. During part of the tests the feed
ing stuffs were cut and fed; during
the remainder of the time they were
harvested by the pigs. These tests
led to the following general con-
illusions: Alfalfa is excellent as pas
ture for hogs. Pigs will make some
gain with no other food, excellent
gains when fed grain on the alfalfa.
Continuous pasturing will injure and
may destroy the alfalfa. With rare ex-
ceptions, alfalfa should not be pastured
the year it is sown. Sorghum also
makes fair pasture for hogs. Sow
ing cow-peas. planting peanuts or
sweet potatoes, and allowing hogs to
harvest the crop, giving them some
grain In addition, reduces the cost of
pork production. Sugar beets are much
relished by any class of stock. The
greater cost of growing them as com
pared with other crops makes it doubt
full if they are an economical crop when
used in large quantities.

K.n... Gypsum and II, vain.

Many people will be surprised to
know that gypsum is found in Kansas
in large quantities. In his address be-
fore the State Board of Agriculture
Erasmus Haworth stated that Kansas
ranks second in the Union as pro-
Queer OF gypsum and the value of its
marketed product. Kansas gypsum is
of two distinct varieties, which differ
from each other in origin and in meth
Cd OF manufacture. The most abund-
ant variety is the ordinary rock gyp-
sum, which exists in broad layers, in
terstratified with limestone and shale
SO that in every respect it is a gen
uine rock. 1t is this form of gypsum
which is so abundant in the vicinity
OF Blue Rapids and on the south side
OF the Hill river opposite Solomon. It
also occurs near the little town of
Hope and many places south of it,
from Sumner line to the state line
and last but not least to the southwest
in Barber county. Here it occurs as
immense masses of stratified rock,
measuring in some places 30 feet or
more in thickness. It also caps the
hills in the rough country to the
southwest Of Medicine Lodge. This
rock gypsum in the various places
named is exceptionally pure and con-
ta1ns only about one or two per cent
OF foreign matter 1t is equal to any
gypsum in the world for the manufac-
ture of the highest grades of plaster
OF Paris and when properly mixed
with efficient retarders makes as high
grade cement plaster as can be found
on the markets of Europe or America.
Another variety of gypsum known in
Kansas and elsewhere is pulverlent in
form. 1t is found near or at the sur
face OF the ground in wet or marshy
places and is mixed with more or less
earthly matter, such as soil, clay and
sand.
Experience shows that 1t Is profit
able to apply gypsum to some kinds
OF soil. Last year Forest Savage of
Lawrence applied a few hundred
pounds of gypsum to a wheat field.
The Vigorous growth and healthy
green color of this portion testified to
the benefit derived from the condition
Of the gypsum. Bro. Haworth thinks
that the productiveness of Kansas soil
can be greatly increased, particularly

gumbo patches are ecmmon and hard

Judging at K.n... city SHOW.

Judging AT KANSAS City Show.
Frank D. VIM. secretary of the Ma
tional Breeders show and also Of the
organization representing Poland
Chinas. gives the following explana-
ton Of system of Judging adopted by
the managing committee on Poland
Chinas at the Kansas City show this
method to apply only of course to the
Poland China breed: The four judges
who will tie ribbons on the Polands
at the Kansas City show are T. B.
Hart of Illinois, j. M. Klever and j.
G. Hendrick of Ohio and W. 2. Swal-
low of Iowa. who was substituted for
w. H. McFadden, who could not serve
on account of his official position with
the American Poland China Record
company. These gentlemen are all
we'll known and have the confidence
and esteem of breeders throughout the
country, both as to their judgment
and their honor The managing COM
mittee does not believe that any one
of these men would let any little per-
sonal feeling interfere with their best
judgment in placing the awards,
should there be any, yet there are al
ways those exhibitors who imagine
they will not get a fair deal on ac-
count of personal differences, ETC.,
and to ease the minds OF such men,
we have adopted a method of Judging
which will make it almost impossible
for any breeder to be injured without
there are as many as two of the judges
prejudiced against him. Two, Judges
will work on each class with a referee
to decide in case Of disagreement,
and one judge will then of course be
out on each class. The judges will be
rotated, the referee changed each time
as well as the man who is out. 1t can
readily be seen that unless both of
the judges on a class or one of the
acting judges and the referee are dis
posed to be prejudiced and working
against the same breeder, it will be
impossible for him to get the worst of
1t. This method Of Judging was adopt
ed for the great combined cattle shows
at Kansas City this fall and in the
opinion of the committee would be the
most satisfactory that could be used
for the Poland China hog exhibit.

will be employed by the other breeds.

jealous of another man, who had paid
her some attention. The magistrate
heard the story, and then turned to-
ward the prisoner and asked:

Does Sterilization Aneot the Dig sstibiL
ity of Milk

Does Sterilization Aneot the Dig sstibiL
ity of Milk /.
Since psychologists have taught W
to look upon untreated cows milk
as fruitful source of infection, es-
pecially dangerous to infants, it has
become the universal practice among
physicians to insist upon It's being ex-
posed to the prolonged influence OF
heat. e., sterilized The too exclu-
s1ve use of milk thus prepared has
been condemned by some authorities,
SO that the question may still be re-
garded as open to discussion, says
British exchange. To determine the
relative digestibility OF fresh and ster-
ilized milk, JENNA Ola clinica medica
ltallana) has undertaken series Of
laboratory experiments, which show
that under the influence of pepsin and
hydrochloric acid fresh milk is more
readily digested than sterilized milk.
While the reverse takes place when
The two fluids are subjected to the
action Of pancreatin. When acted
upon by artificial gastric Juice, ster-
ilized milk produces greater guam
tlty OF peptones during the first four
hours than fresh milk, but after that
period the latter proves to be the more
easily digestible. Practically the Same
results were obtained on using lab
ferment, pepsin, and hydrochloric acid.
The action of labferment and pancrea-
attn was more pronounced in the case
OF sterilized milk
In a second series of researches the
author set himself the task of deter
mining the relative digestibility Of
sterilized milk, and of milk diluted
with 10 per cent solution of sugar
OF milk. In every instance the advan-
tage was on the side of the diluted
milk. The conclusions drawn by tho
author from these data are. 1. Milk
submitted to the sterilizing action Of
heat shows no impairment Of digesti-
bility, which is superior to that of
raw milk. 2. Milk that has been
sterilized and diluted with a solution
OF sugar of milk is more easily digest.
