Don't Use MILK pre.erxatire..

Don't Use Milk Preservatives.
Several so-called milk preseryatNes
are being offered this year thai were
not on the market year ago. and the
claim Is made for at least one OF them
that 1t win not in any way injure the
milk. 1t would seem almost uIaneces-
sary TO advise farmers TO avoid these
preservatives. for the use of them will
mean trouble. The local board OF
health In nearly every town in the
country sufficiently large to have such
body of men. backed by the law. will
make more trouble this year than ever
before. Formalin and other chemicals
used for the preservation Of milk are
very Injurious to health, and laws
against the use Of them are vigorously
enforced Unfortunately, the farmer
cannot control the milk after ii leaves
his hands. but as many farmers de-
liver the product of their dairiea direct
to the consumer this warning is meant
for them. The writer has personal
knowledge that the utmost precautions
are being taken in many States, and
there is no way of fooling these au-
thorlties In some sections the law
has been changed so that a term Of
Imprisonment has been added to the
heavy fine that was imposed % year
ago. In other sections fine AID i'm
prisonment takes the place of fine or

Destrorinr the weeds.

One OF the best methods of reducing
the labor reQui.ed in the destruction OF
weeds is to destroy them when they are
just appearing above the ground. For
a large field the weeder is the best i'm
plement, but for a garden there is no
tool superior to the old time garden
rake. If the surface of the soil Is given
a good raking after each rain there
viii be no weeds, as the rake keeps the
top soil loose. A rake allows Of perform
ing considerable work between rows
compared with using a hoe, and when
the weeds are high enough TO demand

tedious The principal injury done by
weeds is that they rob the growing crop
of moisture and plant foods. Weeds are

Remedx for scaly Leg.

The disease. scaIy leg. is well known
60 all who keep poultry. and while 1t
Is considered that the presence of this
trouble does not affect the health OF
the fowl, it is an objectionable trouble
and ought to be removed. There is
good reason 70 believe that the COM
fort If not the health Of the fowl is
affected. for the scaly leg is due to a
parasite and the working of the mite
must be more or less annoying to the
birds.
The illustration shows how the scaiy
leg looks. and it will be seen that it
differs from the other leg trouble
known as tuberculosis leg. The pene-
trating of the mites beneath the scales
causes them to protrude so that to
reach the mites and remove the cause
of the trouble the scales must be re-
moved. Soak the legs in warm, soapy
water until the scales are softened
somewhat then remove them with a

Pure Ired Cattle in Iowa.

Iowa not only has The reputation of
being the greatest agricultural State
IN the Union. but that il leads as well
In the production OF fine cattle. In the
breeding OF shOrthorns it stands first,
and the sale of these cattle clearly
shows that the business is on good
paying basis. The average of the sales
OF Iowa shorthorns the last year has
been from $500 to 1925 head, with the
majority Of sales ranging from $500
to $500 head. The breeders of Here
ford cattle in Iowa enjoy good
healthy trade In their favorites, breed
ing about one-tenth of all the Hereford
cattle in the United States. and repre-.
scented by over three hundred breeders,
two hundred of whom are members of
the association. Thus Iowa stands
fourth in the production and sale OF
Hereford cattle. and the prices obtained
at the public sales averaged from $500
to $500 a head. Although there are
ten times as many shorthorns In the
United States, and three times as many
Herefords as Aberdeen-Angus, yet the
farmers and breeders of Iowa are
reaching out for the latter kind, and
Iowa stands first in the breeding of
Angus cattle, having nearly three hun
bred breeders raising One-third of all
the Angus cattle in the United States,
showing q growth and increase within
the State of 500 per cent in the last ten
years-Ag rieultural Epitomist.

Fashion Notes.

Coarse linens are to hold very promi-
nent position this year.
Moss is a fashionable trimming on
hats; sometimes the entire crown is made
of it.
Hoop bracelets of dull gold are revived
for wear with the elbow sleeves Of the
summer.
Fine BLACK silk openwork stockings are
worn with low shoes, and many new de-
signs are shown.
MedaIlions of white muslin, embrold
cred with silk in colors to match, are
inset in silk .blouses.
Every hat has a tail, but usually it is
hardly more than tab, and its longest
never hangs beyond the nape of the neck.
Some lovely Paris gowns are made of
kind of silk linen in scarlet or green with
huge chenille spots or woven linen spots,
in white.
Nearly all the newest belt buckles are
intended for wear with dip front waists.
Butterfly designs are popular in jet,
steel and gilt.
Madagascar grass cloth is made up into
belts, and is rather smart for that pur-
pose. A duh brown is combined with
the striped material.
Creamy white is almost universally he
coming, and the introduction of cream
lace or chiffon makes an otherwise impos
sible color wearahle.
Silk gloves are now fashioned with
clasps at the wrist, almost to the exclu-
sion Of buttons. They come in all colors,

Overfeeding of Fowl.

Irregular feeding usually means over
feeding. The fowl. like other animals
that are not fed at proper Intervals. is
liable 20 eat too much at one time, and
suffer from Indigestion. But such suf-
fering means ceasing of egg produc-
ton for the fowl as surely as 1t does

Is but one way to prevent this. and that
Is the feeding at regular hours. and IL

Passing of the PusIic Rang


According to telegram from Helena.
Mont, the catlemen of the Northwest
are buying land rapidly and settling
down with their herds They haze be-
gun TO realize that the public range
viii soon be a thing of the past, and
that the man who would continue in
the business of raising cattle must
have land Of his own upon which to
Craze them. This Is an encouraging
feature of the live stock industry. for
it means more cattle on the same num-
Der of acres and better cattle than
have been produced by the ranges. At
the same time 1t makes the cattleman
independent and no longer at the mercy
OF the seasons, compelled to move
hither and thither with his herds in
order to find sustenance for them.

Coats are trimmed with them, as well
as bodices, and many shirt waist suits
include a sailor collar. The latter Is OF
the same material as the gown, or
matches whatever trimming may be used,
and is edged with braid or insertion.
Bolero and eton jackets hardly are con-
sidered complete unless they show a col
lar on the sailor order. Much colored
silk beautifully appliqued with silk and
chiffon flowers is used for them, and
heavy galoons and passementeries edge
them. Collars of linen, pique, duck and
denim are worn, as rule, with suits of
the same material Black silk and coll
ored silk coats and costumes. both in
transparent and heavy materials, are
trimmed with elaborate collars. These
are scalloped, pointed or cut in fanciful
fashion, some hanging full over the
shoulders, others drawn tight to the bust,
where they are finished with a knot of
ribbon or a velvet rosette. A plain vel
vet collar is seen now and then, usually
in some very bright shade. One appears
in to-day's small picture, and was en-
erald green velvet on cream lace studded
with sequins. the jacket being finished
for white dimity gown. More elaborate
collars usually are more satisfactory. The
next illustration shows two, a white silk
collar embroidered with silver braid, and
pretty affair of stenciled batiste en-
broidery. Dove gray wolfe was the dress
material in the first case, white muslin in
the second. 1t hardly may be said that
these sailor collars are as plentiful as
yokes used TO be, yet they abound to a
degree that may make fashionables tire
oF Xnlrpe rannaip Of
and a new notion in them is yoke effect
outlined by bands of trimming, as in the
remaining dress of this picture. This was
a delicate pink organdy, tucked and zig
Jagged with cream lace insertion.
The newest wash dresses are made with
little etons, the bodice of some handsome
sheerd material. usually chiffon or organ
dy. Cream and ecru laces and embroid-
cries are employed extensively on white
gowns. Cream and black lace insertions
are another feature OF stylish trimmings.
