There is no necessity for window on

preferable to have no windows on the

Another Milk Adulteran+

V1scogen is the latest milk adulter.
ant discovered by the inspectors of
the state dairy and food department.
For some time the department kept
getting samples of milk apparently
above the legal standard which, on
being tested, were found to be far
below. The cause was a mystery nm.
til, by a shrewd piece of detective
work, the reason was discovered and
a sample of viscogen was obtained.
The stuff is a strip composed of
sugar, lime and water, about the
color of water, and is used chiefly tn
make the milk appear richer than it
really is. When viscogen is placed
in milk or cream the Tactic acid turns
lime in the fluid into white, thick
substance, which, assimilating with
the milk, gives it the appearance and
taste of great richness. It is DOS
sible through it's use to palm off upon
customers milk and cream which is
far below standard. While viscopen
is not injurious to health, it's use is
fraudulent and will be stopped by the
dairy and food department.. Viscogen
is SO little known that the practice
among dairymen is very limited

ProDer Rations for Hens.

The proper feeding of birds has
much to do with their health. The ra-
ton of the fowls should always be
balanced one. Fowls fed an unbal-
anced ration continually are certain to
become weak. If it Is unbalanced on
the side of too much carbohydrates
they become soft and lazy and the
bones lack strength, as we'll as do the
muscles. If the food is overbalanced
ON the side of too much heterogeneous
matter, various troubles follow, and in
such condition the birds are said to
fall easy victims to rheumatism, which
in turn is made possible by too great
a supply of acid formed from the
heterogeneous food products. It pays a
man to study the ration question if
he wishes to avoid many troubles with
fowls.-Farmers' Review.

But it is nor alone in gowns that we

the variety offered in sleeves and in
neckwear properly belong to the
gowns, bu! botE sleeves and neckwear
have become such distinctive features
of dress and often show such radical
contrast to the remainder of the gown
as to be classed as dress accessories.
Take, for instance, the changeable

which have tended to make several

as though the manufacturers had gone
into the business of making for each

of one case in which this was the case.

VALUABLE, FORAGE CROP.
The Strong Points Of Winter. rye

Next to rape, winter rye is probably
the most valuable forage crop grown
in the United States. When all it's good
points are considered, it almost be-
comes a question as to whether it
should not be given first place as q
forage crop. But it is inferior to rape
as soiling crop. The strong points
about winter rye as forage plant are:
The abundant pasture which it pro-
duces fall and spring, the earliness and
lateness of its growth, the power
which it has to withstand severe.
weather and to grow on poor soils, and
the fact that it is grown as catch
crop, that is to say, crop grown be-
tween crops. Rye can be grown any
season without losing a crop. When
pastured off in the spring, it may be
followed by crop of corn, sorghum,
field roots OR rape. The soil is pre-
pared for rye in the same way as for
other grain. The seed bed should be
fine and moist. In a dry autumn
moisture is secured by judicious use
of the roller and harrow on upturned
land. From two to three bushels of
seed per acre should be sown, and
preferably with the grain drill, for
many reasons that may be given. It
should be sown any time after mid
summer and on until the autumn, but
it should always be sown sufficiently
long before winter to enable it to root
firmly. If sown quite early in very hot
weather it may rust. The partial REM
| edy for this is immediate pasturing.
In the spring it will furnish grazing
from two to three weeks earlier than
any other plant, and 1t should at all
times be grazed down closely to keep
it from jointing. Mich cows should
not be allowed to pasture on it for
more than two or three hours day.
The grazing which young rye furnishes
is excellent for any kind of stock, and
in case it should outgrow the grazing
powers of the animals pasturing it, if
they are removed until the heads form
and ripen and begin to break down,
the foraging for swine is most excel
lent.-Colman's Rural World.

width from the: very wide girdle to
the narrow velvet ribbon, while in belt
buckles the variety has been even
greater, and thousands are to-day
wearing buckles designed especially
for their use. Into these crests, coats
of-arms and initials have been worked
to good advantage. And so it has run
all through the list of feminine wear
ing apparel, even to the undergar-
ments, where the same craze for indi-
viduality and individual fads has been
the one great distinctive feature of the
summer modes and fashions.
T For the past few days have noticed
particularly the novelties shown in the
matter of blouses and bodices, some Of
them striking and elaborate, and 9TH
ers simple and pretty. I do not mean
by that that the striking and elaborate
ones are not sometimes pretty. for
they are, as for':example an evening
blouse of combination of cream lace,
applique and ribbon. It was made a
very low decollete with an open bo-
lero disclosing fan-shaped front
made of folded bands of soft pink
satin ribbon, and with large bow of
the same ribbon at the side. The
sleeves were of the lace, caught just be-
low the shoulders with three small or
namental bars, this giving full puff
of the lace at; the elbows, with lace to
finish below. At the waist was worn a
narrow belt of the narrow pink satin
ribbon.
Another blouse, on the sailor fash
ion, designed for afternoon wear,
which was to me more startling than
pretty, was of blue silk with large
white polka dots. The chemisetts and
stock were made of white silk with
rows of applique to almost cover the
deep sailor collar of the blue silk, fin
ished with a wide band of the white
silk feather stitched. White feathered
bands extend down the front, across
which was tied a white sailor knot.

Why Cattle Raising Pays.

Leading authorities say that in
1900 we had in this country 1o,ooo,ooo
less cattle than in 1892. and that in
that time our population has in
creased over 100000. In 1892 we
were considered to have s26 head of
cattle to every 1000 of population,
losing on an average during those
eight years 100000, so that if we
are only to maintain our present
ratio we must be able to show an an
nual increase of about 100000 cat
tie. This aspect OF the situation APP
peals strongly to thinking men, and
possibly gives the real explanation
why men of great wealth are now
eagerly embarking in the cattle bust
ness, both as breeders of pure bred
cattle and in safe concerns on the
range.-Rural World.

Steady Demand for Stock.

There has never been a time in
the history of this country when
prime pure bred cattle were in such
high favor as now, says the Drovers'
Journal. The inquiry is as broad as
the land, and broader, for it extends
to our neighbors across the border,
both north and south. There have
been temporary spasms in the de-
mand for high-class cattle in years
past, but it was never universal, as it
is now. There were never such good,
wholesome reasons behind it. We
are 100000 short in the general cat
tie supply, and 100000 ahead in
population, with field abroad which
is constantly growing. The public is
willing and better able to pay for
better meat; why shouldn't it be pro.
duced?

BEES WILL PAY TAXES.
Farmer Should Not Raise
Crop of Honey.

In bulletin recently issued by the
Rhode Island board of agriculture the
secretary of the board, George A.
Stockwell, says:
Economical as the farmer may be,
careful as he may clean in field and
roadside (perhaps, meanwhile, COM
planning of low prices and high
taxes), yet he is unconscious, often
apparently, of the presence, or in
different to the value, of rich and
bountiful crop, free gift of nature,
prepared every year that may be of
sufficient value to pay the taxes.
Honey is as much money crop as
any other and there is no reason why
it should not contribute to the gen
eral welfare.
In the city of Providence one col
ony of bees gathered in one season
70 pounds of comb honey, sold at Is
cents per pound, or $3.50; another
colony in the same apiary gathered in
the same season 1924 pounds of ex-
tracted honey, sold at ~ cents per
pound, or $2O.SO. Other colonies in the
same apiary produced 20 to 60 pounds
of comb or extracted honey each,
above what was required to support
them during the winter.
Bookkeeping is usually joint indus.
try. Bees must have some attention,
but do not require so much care as
some persons suppose. By the use OF
the double, non-swarming hives bees
may be left to themselves most OF
the time and the farmer may give his
attention to poultry raising, small
fruit culture, gardening, ETC., as
sured that his bees are working for
his benefit to supply his table and
pay or help pay the taxes.

Keep q Regular Account.

It is impossible to know whether
you have made profit unless accounts
are kept. Charge the hens with all the
food. allowed, and also interest on
capital invested. Credit them with all
the sales and for the produce used in
the family. The difference will be the
profit unless you wish to charge for
your abor, the value of which depends
upon how much it was worth to you at
the time. A large flock costs less for
labor, proportionately, than smaller
one, but in families where small hocks
are kept for pleasure as we'll as profit
the labor is not Standardization and
