That classic blending of blue and
green, though anything save new, is
as smart as it is attractive.
The smartest turban seen lately is
OF straw between cerise and pink. 1t
is draped with black chantilly.
White Isle thread gloves are con-
sidered quite appropriate to any
morning or afternoon costume.
Flowered organdies are a safe in
vestment, for authority says they will
be even more worn next summer.
Some informal evening dresses
have yokes of plain net and in many
instances these are very becoming
Closely sheared zibeline, not the
long haired kind first introduced, is
the modish stuff for the coming sea-
son.
Net appliques are introduced with
charming effect into many elaborate
trimmings for dresses. as well as for
coats.
The extreme fioppy phase of the
picturesque is on the wane. One can
now be smart without looking like a
freak.

Feeding Regularly.

When animals are fed in the barn,
regularity of feeding is requisite
especially is this so in the winter
time when the stock are not getting
any OF their feed from the pasture.
Ihe animal stomach as well as the
human stomach quickly rebels if it be
not treated in a perfectly regular
manner. T. B. Terry, in a work on
the care of horses and cattle, says:
Four years ago I bought fine team
OF workhorses. They were six years
old, and in extra good condition-gOt
up to sell, the neighbors said. They
mad been used to grain three times
day; but as l do not feed work
horses much if any grain, but rather
keep them on early-cut clover and
timothy hay-dried grass@I began.
after little, feeding them on hay
alone. OF course, made the change
gradually. Every few weeks 1
drove them to the scales and had
them weighed, and they gained stead
lily all winter. Their total gain in
weight was 800 lbs, although in prime
order to start with. They were alto
gether too fat; but 1 enjoyed the ex-
pertinent My best friends could hard
ly believe that the horses got no
business to handle them) came from
dried grass alone. They did not do
much If any hard work during the
winter, but were always used enough
for exercise. Now, how were they
led, for dried grass alone did not do
the business? Regularly, three times
day, what they would eat up clean
in from sixty to ninety minutes, and
then watered as regularly and as
many times. Then they were regu-
larly and thoroughly curried, and, of
course, kept in a warm stable. At
their best weight they weighed about
1,40O lbs. each, and ate, on an aver
age, about 80 lbs. of hay apiece each
day. 1t was wonderfully choice hay,
however, and they were good horses;
but 1t was only by the most careful
attention in feeding that they could
nave been made to show any such
gain. 1t would have been an easy
matter to feed them more, and have
them lose flesh; SO under some cir
cumstances it takes less feed to fat
ten an animal than to run him down,
which goes to show that feeding is an
important matter.

Selling Cattle at the stockyards.

The stock is driven from the car
onto the receiving platform, and from
this 1t is driven by chutes to the pens
IN various parts of the yards. One
may unload carload of stock, drive
1t into an alley adjoining the platform,
ana thence to any part of the yard de-
sired. Cross gates are at frequent in
tervals, which will permit one to di-
rect his stock at his pleasure with
but little trouble. After the stock is
placed in pens it is available for sale.
The shipper usually turns it over to a
commission firm to sell, although this
is not necessity. Yet one not reg
ularly on the market cannot sell to as
good advantage as can the regular
dealers. This is because irregular
sellers are not in touch with the buy
ers, so as to secure a wide range of
custom The animals received in
stock yards usually reach the market
very early in the morning, and by
noon the active business of the day
is about completed. There IRE two
classes of men in the yards about the
pens, the commission men selling and
the buyers. The first thing each morn
ing these men inform themselves re-
garding the quotations on the various
classes and grades of stock and the
visible supply. If the supply is short
and the demand for certain grades is
active, then the buyers seek the
statesmen; but if the market is dull
and Indifferent, then the sellers seek
the buyers. Where men buy for the
packing houses, they receive a daily
statement of the slaughter record of
the animals purchased by them the
day previous.-Prof. Chas s. Plumb.

Low Pay of euttermakers.

1t is quite natural to blame the but
termaker whenever creamery is
kept in a bad condition. The proper
one to blame in most cases is the
manager, as in the first place he
should never hire an incompetent
man. He simply does SO that he may
save from $40 to SIS per month. He
does not realize that by doing so he
is losing s10O per month. Some of
our Iowa buttermakers are working
under rather discouraging conditions.
The average wages paid our butter
makers does not reach $50 per month,
and even at that figure some of the
directors are continually worrying
about how they viii be able to reduce
his wages. They do not appreciate
theft buttermakers' work, no matter
how well and skillfully it has been
performed. The result often is that
the same creamery hires a cheaper
man. He has perhaps been employed
as can washer in some creamery. He
knows nothing about buttermaking
and as a result the quality of the
butter from that creamery is i'm
paired. A $75 or 800 man is a great
deal more profitable than a cheap
man, and unless good men are en-
p1oyed it will be impossible to keep
up our butter standard.-M. Morten-

Real Turkish Coffee.

Here is receipt for making Turk
ish coffee obtained in the Syrian quar-
ter of New York, where the finest
coffee in the world is sold at cents
a cup in restaurants which are exact
duplicates of those in Smyrna and
Beirut:
Put three Jumps of sugar into a lit
tie pot, turn in the water, and bring
it to boil. Then put in two tea
spoonfuls of very finely ground Mocha
coffee AS soon as the froth rises,
lift the pot and tap the bottom until
the froth disappears. Do this three
times. Then turn the coffee into deli
cate china cups, giving each cupful
a share of froth.
The coffee should be freshly roast
ed and ground, and the grounds
should be so fine as to pass the pal
ate unnoticed. Turks always drink
the grounds, considering them, in
deed, to be the best part of a cup of
coffee.

In making down pillows go over

At a recent porch luncheon the
whole tomatoes served were peeled
and cut in lengths nearly through
which made them look like red roses
as they were brought on resting OF
lettuce hearts.
In a country house where a larg-
number of lamps are used it is bet
ter to keep them in a little closet b.
themselves than to expose them on {
shelf in the kitchen, where they are
sure to collect dust.
The lid of a teapot should alway
be left SO that air gets in. Slip in :
piece of paper to keep it open. This
prevents mustiness. The same rule
applies to coffee pot.
F1atirons should be washed every
week and always kept in a clean, dry
place. Few housekeepers use sufh
cient wax in ironing. Do not allow
your irons to become red hot, as they
will never again retain the heat.

Growth Habit of Trees.

Our general ideas of the character
of frst-class tree for planting are
quite faulty. Each variety of fruit
tree is more or less characteristic in
its form of growth-'habit'' as it is
often termed, and it is fortunate that
this is so, else what monotonous
appearance our orchard plantations
would assumed To this fact, that each
variety possesses a characteristic hab-
it, we should give more than pass
ing attention when selecting trees for
a new orchard. For, in order to OBJ
tain frst-class trees for planting, and
none other should be used, the or
chardist must have a knowledge OF
the points" of a good tree Of the
variety under consideration. Some
trees while in the nursery assume an
erect, strict habit with an even, regu-
lar taper; others are kinky, irregular
in the direction of ascent and having
an uneven taper; and stin others are
short, thick and inclined to branch
Yet, ding this wide diver
gence of character, these trees may
all be first-class. The character or
habit of the variety must be fully
studied and then trees possessing a
strong inclination to follow the type
habit should be selected-Prof. E. r.

A Flower Instead of a Monogram.

A fad with many smart girls just
now is to mark their underwear and
many of their dainty dress accessories
with little embroidered flower in
place of their monogram or initials

Bangle as a Pledge.

A new idea is to substitute an en-
gagement bangle for the conventional
ring These bangles, which some
times slight circlets, and sometimes
broad gold bands, give the lover the
satisfaction of feeling that he has in
deed safely fettered his fair f1ancee
for, once fastened, the clasp can only
be opened by being forced apart with
a chisel. On the continent, where il
is customary for lovers to exchange
rings, engagement bangles are some
times worn by men, but they are rare
ly seen on men of English speaking
races.
