What Not to Huv.

TO know what not to buy is the first
thing a woman must learn il she
would be a good shopper Most ev-
cry woman knows what to buy, and if
she has plenty Of money and can buy
every thing she wants she is fortunate.
To the woman with the limited in
come it is most essential to know
what not to buy, and if she does not
know she should learn at once.
The first thing before starting on a
shopping expedition it to know just
exactly what you want and make
notes. for in going from one store to
another and looking about one is like
ly to forget If she can afford to have
one good gown it should by all means
be black. Crepe de chine, say, at about
a dollar a yard, would be the most
desirable material; for this, as it
wears we'll can be worn on all Occa-
sions.
1t should be made up all in black.
with lace trimming, so that at any
time, with a touch here and there of
ribbon or a sailor collar of cream lace,
the gown will look entirely different.
The woman who can sew is more for
tunate than her sister who cannot,
for she can make her own gown, and
with the money she would be obliged
to pay the dressmaker can buy her
self another gown, say of white dotted
swiss, and make it up daintily, trim
ming it with black insertion.
Four shirtwaists should figure in
her seasons outfit, and if by making
them herself she can increase the num-
Der to six, all the better. The lighter
fabrics trimmed with laces or embroid-
cries are the most comfortable shirt
waists, although the mannish effect
looks very smart.
A woman must have at least two
hats, one for ordinary wear and one
for dress occasions.
A black lace hat trimmed with
black silk and velvet flowers and two
OF three buckles will answer for dress
occasions, and for shirtwaist wear
almost any color straw. trimmed with
ribbon and quilts, may be worn. And
to change the appearance of the hat
chiffon veil can be draped en- it.
In buying a chiffon veil it is always
better to buy the best for the cheaper
qualities are very perishable. Under
wear can be had for a dollar a gar
ment and even less and if one pre-
fers silk undervest there are those
of silk and Isle at 50 cents each.
In buying gloves it is always well to
select some standard make. as they
are cheaper in the long run. There
are good standard gloves at $3.50
pair-New York Journal.

Some fashionable fads stand for dis
tinction without a difference. This is
not the case, however. with the lace
yoke which is either strapped or gar
niShed with lace.
If only mere women would under
stand these little things!
We have seen a lace yoke in tail
ormade broadcloth costume, which
even particular wCmen might have
worn on the promenade. 1t was strap
ped with the cloth and was eminently
fit and trig, with no trace of foolish
fussincss.
On the other hand. we have seen
plenty of lace yCkes-either over satin
or the bare skin, which we're never in
tended for anything save house wear.
Applique edges, little frills or CHER
fripperies do not enter into the con-
struction of the lace-yoked dress when
said dress belongs to the street class.

The competition between the Chi
nese, steam, and hand laundries has
grown so strong that enterprising

Having noticed a complaint from
farmers a number of times of loss Of
calves from seours, 1 feel it almost a
duty to tell little OF our own expe-
rience in the rearing of calves Al
one time a heifer was so badly par
alyzed BY the birth of her calf that she
could not sucI1Ie it, and we undertook
TO raise it by hand. II was large,
strong, hearty calf. and we fed it with
milk from cows that had been giving
milk three months. At first it seemed
all right, but after a few days il be-
gan to scour; at one time it would be
ravenously hungry and again would
not eat at all, and few days later was
dead. At the same time a calf was
purchased that had sucked once, per-
haps twice, as it was taken from its
mother the day of its birth. We fed it
on the same kind of milk that the first
calf was fed, and in a short time it
grew sickly and did not thrive, al
though. calf of the same age, which
had run with its mother until it was
week old, ate from the same gail
and grew apace. Wefelt sure it would
die. when calf about "a hours old,
slipped over a bank and drowned, and
we put the ailing calf on the latter's
mother. It lived and got all right, and
ma lie a fine steer. Another calf that
ne undertook to raise the same way
nearly died. but we put it on a fresh
COW Just in time. The result was as
tonishing; the calf was so weak they
Ield it to the COW the first time, but

Pink and blue shot silks are hav-
ing their innings and are extremely
popular.
Red and white silk braid in
snowy plaid pattern trims the bodice
of new morning frocks of linen.
Wooden lace of white, cream or a
color to match the dress fabric is
used TO trim light wool dresses.
An odd hat of fancy silk tuscan
braid has for trimming cluster of
cherries above which hover small
black birds.
Chain bracelets have pearl, topaz or
amethyst settings between the links, in
direct imitation of the now long pop
ular neck cheir.
Large white felt outing hats are
trimmed with crush band of black
velvet, loop and end of the same fall

For the woman who feels she must
wear q green veil there is a chiffon
veil of dull leaf green that is far bet

Black stitches and French knots are

OF white linen batiste, which, by the

they meet deep hemstitched border
of the white, the effect being snowy

rttting Dairy AnnnnI. for SHOW.

The modern tendency is to make
the animal conform to an arbitrary
standard OF excellence, or scale of
points. and IFS ability to win prizes
varies directly as do the conceptions
OF the various judges who pass upon
the conformity to that scale One OF
the primary requisites of all dairy an
imals regardless Of age or sex. is ca
pacity. Judge likes an animal with
a large paunch as it is very essential
in economically converting a large
amount of coarse feed into milk How
can we develop this capacity?
II is done by feedingv.eoarse bulky
TODD, in a manner best suited to the
Individual tastes Of the animals. Many
have had good success by giving cut or
chaffed hay and straw, with a mixture
of ground oats and bran, a little salt,
and a handful Of oil meal, small
amount Of the concentrates. and all
the coarse food she will eat The prin-
cipal object is to make her eat much
to get a small amount Of grain.
The next thing that appeals to the
eye CT the judge is the temperament
Of the animal, which indicates wheth-
er or not she is using in the right way
the food she has consumed All dairy
cattle should be free from tendency to
lay on flesh, thin. and under condition
rather than too fe2hy. A show ami
nal should possess quality also. but
this to a large extent IS determined by
nature. although we can assist by
keeping her in perfect health, the hair
well groomed and protected from the
sun. which makes it harsh and dry.
Kerosene should never be applied to
the hair Where great stress is laid on
secretioas dispense with the use Of
water for cleaning animals, as It
makes the skin appear pale.
There is a great diversity of opin-
ion among judges as to the Importance
of under development. However, when
a heller is developing an udder we
should help her on all we can, as the
time to assist nature is when she is
doing her best work Many advocate
increasing the grain ration of a heifer
at this stage, even though she becomes
heshy as she will soon milk it off
again. All cattle should be handled
and well broken to lead 1t is also
