WOMAN'S @

SHE'S A GAME BUYER.
The Novel Occupation of "a Young Woman
of Milwaukee.

The Novel Occupation of IA Young Woman
of Milwaukee.
A novel occupation is that which is
being pursued with success by Miss
Emily /. Marden. of Milwaukee, Wis.
There are now quite number of
Dianas who take out a hunting license
each season, and Miss Mnrden is
among the women TO whom licenses
are annually issued, but 1t is not to
hunt the game that she obtains the
legal document necessary. With her
IL Is a strictly business proposition.
She probably knows more about the
habits of game. either feathered or
four-footed. than most women who
hunt but that is because she is game
buyer, and the only woman engaged
in that business in the State.

reaches Milwaukee each autumn sea

work and arduous travelling by Miss
Marden in the northern part of the
state. For three months each year she
goes from shipping point TO shipping

take the long and tiresome trip back

Under the game laws no shipping
Is allowed, and this means that every
time consignment of game reaches
town some one with hunters license
has brought it down from the North
as personal baggage. With Miss Mar
den this personal baggage is at times
excessive, and she has brought in at
one trip as many as 2O00 birds which
she had gathered up in the course of
three OF four days travel through the
woods.

Selling Milk DepIetes Fertility,

Milk sold constantly takes off CON
siderable fertility from the land be-
cause Of the large percentage of nj
trogen ii contains. If, on the other
hand, butter is made and sold, and
the sklmmilk is fed to farm animals,
the decrease in fertility ought to be
very small, as butter fat contains a
very limited amount of nitrogen. phos-
phorus and potash. The man who
sells 500 worth of butter made from
crops produced at home robs himself
Of only eleven cents of fertility. If in
making this butter he has fed in addi-
tion to home grown feeds one-half ton
Of bran or cottonseed meal. he has
added to the land sc to $11 worth of
fertilizing matter. which will take the
place of the eleven cents worth sold in
The butter. Because of this, the dairy
sections where butter Is made are
growing richer and richer. Rundown
lands can be built up and the produc-
ing capacity of farms now quite fertile
,an be still further Increased.
On the other hand, where milk is sold
to condensing factory or to the big
,ity market, there is apt to be a de-
crease in fertility. Not only this, but
the farmer who makes butter or takes
his cream to a factory. has his skim
milk for fattening hogs and raising
young stock. He therefore gets not
only a profit from his butter but from
the sGlmmilk as well. Further, 1t en-
ables him to raise his own cows, and
IN this manner secure the very best
mixers. This is much more desira-
bic practice than that of going into ad-
Joining sections and buying up cows
as soon as the herd needs replenishing.

How TO Drain a Cow Stable.

Say what one may and do what he
will, the Importance of good drainage
in cow stable is not to be ignored
More numerous the intricacies and
sharper the strife in the dairy business
each year, already have matters come
to such pass that only those who en-
ploy the most modern methods may be
said to stand any show at all.
Providing there We're no perplexitles
and competitions to fight, however, the
best of sanitary conditions ought to
exist in all COW barns. Indeed. not
only are they essential to the health of
the animals themselves. but also to
that of the farmer and every one else
who partakes of his milk, butter and
cheese.
1t is only healthy cows, remember
that can be relied upon to give pure,
wholesome milk. Consequently, If

The Bees Winter flight.

When the bees take winter flight
there should be shallow basin with
hoating sticks or other arrangements
so that the bees can alight there and
get the water they will need, and ii
the water is salted at the rate of about
one teaspoonful of salt to a gallon OF
water, they will like it all the better
This may save them from taking toe
long a fight and thus from the loss
that follows when they go out If they
fly too far for water The water
should be placed near enough to the
hive so that they will have no difficulty
in finding It. and if one bee is carried to
it it will soon show the way to the
others.

be, the chances are decidedly in favor
OF their becoming more or less diseased,
and when this occurs they must, of
course, give in a like ratio inferior

animals are kept closely or constantly
stabbed.
Hence, the reason why advocate this
use of a sewerage system such as Is

Chiffon For Use and Beauty.

Clever modistes are lining Irish lace,
used as berthas or collars, with black
chiffon. and this throws up the lace
In subtle and indescribable way that
is perfectly fascinating. OF course.
1t isn't on a single chiffon the lace
Is laid. and under the black. which is
sometimes single and sometimes
double, there must be always layer
or two OF white chiffon. Lace Is sim
ply lined with black chiffon, and sewn
on to 1t all along its border. The lace
doesn't dangle over the chiffon. hut

all the newpess and subtlety OF the
effect.

Hints For Girls who Travel.

One of the first lessons the girl needs
TO learn is how to travel without look
ing untidy. To the novice this seems
impossible. All the dust sticks. Her
clothes lose their freshness and she
does not understand the secret of
spending twenty-four hours OH the
train without presenting Il generally
demoralized appearance at the end of
her journey.
The experienced traveller will always
carry with her cold cream and almond
meal. The latter softens the hard
water and enables her to keep her
hands clean. Cold cream smeared
thickly on the face and neck at inter-
walls, rubbed in well and removed with
bit of absorbent cotton or an old
handkerchief, removes the coal dust
and clnders.
As for clothes. she will not wear
white shirt waists or cotton gowns on
the train. One plain China silk blouse
of color to harmonize with her walk
ing skirt is sufficient. Tho latter
should be of mohair, which can be
brushed clean in an instant. She should
wear thin gauze combination suit il
the weather be warm. heavy one if
necessary. and carry as many more
as the trip demands For comfort
she should wear mere girdle for a
corset, the latter being too stiff to
wear with comfort throughout the
day.
Pongee ''knlckers'' are better than
pettlcoats. They roll into a mere wlsp
at night, and China silk corset covers
may be worn for the same reason.
