Keeping UP Appearances.

You will see plenty of women who
will lock smart for a few weeks each
season and then degenerate into
dowdiness. 1t is because they do not
take good care of their clothing and
it's freshness lasts only2a short time.
Sometimes they are women who have
both time and money, but are lack.
ing in good habits and for them no
excuse car be found. A tired body
and very little spare time will re-
ceive pardon for many omissions of
duty, but, truth to tell, not among
such surroundings do we find untidl-
ness as a general thing. Business
women are compelled to keep up APP
pe%arances, sometimes by the rules Of
the house which commands their
services and always by the knowledge
that a pleasing appearance is of finan-
cial advantage to them in my EN-.
ployment.

West Ahead of the East.

All sorts of new plans for teach
ing agriculture are being tried in the
west. In Missouri aniexhibition car
is hauled by the railroads. This car
carries samples of farm products for
exhibition. Speakers go along, and
the car can be turned into a small
hall for holding a meeting if de.
sired. In a dairy section, stock food,
forage plants, dairy utensils and
ever animals will be carried. In a
fruit-growing section tools and ap-
planes for ~cultivating, spraying,
ETC., will be on hand. All this is UNI
der direction of the Missouri expert
ment station. 1t seems like a grand
thing, especially for a large state.
The west is ahead of the east in such
matters, because the western farm
err has been able to make his power
definitely felt.-Rural New Yorker.

BROAD WHEEL WAGONS.
They Do Not Cut the Farm Into Rats,
But Make n Smooth Road
Over Fields.

This has been the worst fall and
winter for getting in crops ever
known in this region. The rains were
SO frequent and so heavy that the
corn was too wet most of the time;
and the soil became so soft that it
would not hold up the ordinary
wagon. We had the advantage of
u n~eighbors, for we had a set of
metal wheels, with four-inch tires.
A large part of u corn was on
low land, and the river began to
back up owe it before we got it
gathered. Had we been compelled to
depend on the old-fashioned narrow
tire, the water would have risen over
it before we were half done, as, in
that case, we could not have pulled
