IRONING A SHIRT WAIST.
The Method Used In Best Laundrie
Where HandvOrl1 Is Done.

The Method Used In Best Laundries
Where Handvorlz Is Done.
With every returning summer the
feminine fancy turns seriously to
thoughts of shirt waists and their prop
err ironing, process which the Boston
Cooking School Magazine clearly sets
forth as follows:
When ready to iron the waist, dip
quickly into a pail of hot water, then
put through the wringer and iron at
once. Begin with the cuffs, pressing
first on the wrong side and then finish
ing on the right, until perfectly dry.
Next iron the collar band and then the
sleeves.
The sleeves are the most difficult part
Of the waist to do well, and sleeve
board can be purchased for about %
cents, which is considered by many as
a great help. These are commonly used
in hand laundries, and when used the
sleeves are ironed last. If the sleeve
is to be ironed without board, press
1t fiat, ironing both sides. Finish the
top by putting small iron inside of
the sleeve, through the arms eye, and

Convenient Chicken Coop Door Used
by George L. Moore.

While making visit to George l.
Moore's farm in Plymouth county,
Mass, he called my attention to a
chicken coop door that he invented and
has used for some time. The arrange
ment is simple, as the drawing will
show, but is nevertheless effective.
Doors that slide up and down between
cleats are apt to bind when swelled by
a rain.
When doors are fitted with hinges,
unless of leather they will rust and
break when exposed to the weather

There should be no such thing as
"breaking in a heifer" when she has
her first calf. She should be so careful
ly handled that there will be no neces-
sity for doing the thing after that

has not been done before. begin some
weeks before calving to familiarize the
heifer with the mixer. Stroke her, ca

thing so carefully that any advance in
the process will be unnoticed by the
animal Within a few days the udder
can be handled at will, and the heifer
will soon come to enjoy and even ex-
pect such caresses. If this work is
carefully and kindly done, there will
be no trouble when milking time comes.

.Japanese MiIIet.

japanese millet stands up very well
for tall crop, says an exchange.
Don't SOW it too thick, for it stools
more than any other crop. One small
seed will send up seven or eight plants
to the same height. If sown too thick
ly, it will not have room to stool, and 1t
will lodge much easier. Ten to twelve
quarts of seed per acre on fairly good
soil will stand up all right.

When Helseth was first corralled by
local officers he had walked in from
Georgetown, Mimi, and stated that he
had a brother-in-law near Rothsay, MINI.
He was sent there. but became so trouble
some that he was confined in the Fergus

Gates brought Helseth back to Fargo

then returned into Minnesota, and, it is

to this side OF the river and no further
