Geese.

In common geese the males and
females differ in plumage, but this is
not the case with the pure-bred geese.
In their case the males and females
are alike. The largest geese are the
toulouse, and these are popular with
men that have a fancy for large fowls.
II man wants layers, however, he
will choose the China. Those that
raise the geese largely for feathers
Will choose the Emblem, because their
feathers are pure white, and hence
the market value of them is greater
than with those geese whose feathers
are multi-colored. If man merely
wants to produce birds that can be
marketed to good advantage he will
ma cross of the Toulouse with the
Emblem give good results.
Where geese have access to a pond
or river they will derive much of
taeir subsistence from the water. The
writer knew of a man that lived on the
banks OF river and had large flock
OF geese. Across the shallow river
was a starch factory, and from this
large amount of soaked corn daily
ran from the sluices into the river.
The geese made their living off this
corn, which they fished up out of the
water. 1t made a perfect food so
far as softness and digestibility were
concerned. They balanced their ra
ton with the semi-aquatic plants grow.
ing in the river and along it's margin.
There are many like situations where
a flock of geese would save what
would otherwise go to waste.
Shallow ponds in summer TEEN with
fish, water beetles, worms and other
forms of life. A flock of geese shows
great enjoyment in hunting their own
food in such places. Geese are also
consumers of some of the bugs that
disturb the peace of the farmer. One
man told the writer how he used to
use them for the destruction of DO
tato bugs. The geese would travel
down the rows, darting their heads
now to this side and now to that.
They consumed in the course of q
day very large number of bugs
The fault to be found with them was
that they did not do their work per.
fectly, but left colonies of bugs here
and there, which later had to be des.
troyed by other agencies.
The goose lays from twenty-five to
fifty eggs and if she could be bred
up to lay more would become more
popular on the farm. Perhaps it is
possible to ultimately develop geese
to lay as many eggs as hens, but that
result is a long way in the future
at the present time.

Furs Of Two Colors.


An entirely novel idea in fur trim
ming is to applique fur medallions or
flowers in one color on scarfs and
muffs of another color. Cpe beautiful
set OF this description is OF ermine,
the very white fur being ornamented
with scrolls of moleskin on each
shoulder, on the stole ends, and on the
panels of the large muff.
Tiger and leopard furs are made
up usually in small fancy necktles and
very plain crescent muffs, never
trimmed in any way and lined most
inconspicuously.
Black and the reddish baby calf
follow the same model, and are in
variably simple. The red and white
calf is sometimes lined and combined
with white kid, but the black is all
smooth, glossy black, with not even a
jewel in the clasp.
Snake skin, too, should be recorded
as observing these extremely tailor
made designs. All these eccentric furs
are almost wholly worn with tailor
made dresses and with small, unob-
trusive toques, the fur furnishing all
the audacity and showine5s necessary
In any one costume.

Freshness of EGGS.

There are many old ways of test
ing the freshness of eggs. Some of
them may be of little value. Here
is one that is going the rounds, but
for which we cannot vouch. 1t may
be all right: Eggs are placed in a pan
OF water, giving each room enough
SO that it's motions will not be inter-
fered with by the others. The air in
the egg will be governed according to
the age of the egg, if the egg has
been kept in moderately warm state.
If the eggs are just laid they will be
motionless. If they are more than
week old they will partly stand on
the little end. This is because the
air chamber is in the other end of
the egg. This air chamber grows
larger as the egg becomes older and
the moisture in it evaporates. When
the eggs get still older they will stand
up straight in the water and when
very old will float.
This test of course would be of no
value in the case of picked eggs or
Of eggs kept in cold storage where
the temperature was so low that the
evaporation of moisture from the eggs
would be very small.
Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1904-12-01
Fowls for Market.

The farmer should not wait till he
is ready to market his hens and roost-
ers before separating them from the
rest of the flock. Those that are to
be so disposed of should be separated
from the rest at this time. If they
are to be sold for the Thanksgiving
market they should be placed on fat
tening food at this time. Chickens
for market should be made as fat as
possible, as the buyers want them that
way. The fat is not indeed eaten, but
it in some way makes the flesh of
the fowls tenderer and the buyers
realize that. Moreover, they are will.
ing to pay for the tenderness that
comes from the fattening process. The
birds will also be tender because they
have been deprived of exercise. Fowls
that exercise are naturally tougher
than those that do not. Four weeks
feeding will sometimes add two
pounds each to fowls and this makes
quite a difference with them when
they are marketed.

Dashlna French Modes.

With the revival of all the pictur
esque modes, even the tailor.made,
are taking on dressy touch that has
hitherto been foreign to their particu
lar style. The dashing modes of the
Louis periods are to be seen in the
soft chiffon cloths, and even the new
double-width crepe de chine is now be
ing made up in the draped models te
which the tailors are giving their bes'
attention.
And in contradistinction to the Oh
modes the new ones demand that the
dressy costumes be of silk or velvet
and that the trimming be of cloth
The novel chiffon faille Franchise, om
old friend come back under the cnit
fon guise, is seen in the Louis Seize
mode with the seams strapped witt
cloth, graduated cloth bands upon the
skirt, the characteristic revers faced
with velvet and the clsth appliques
piped with the same.

evening gowns there should be a gooe
chance for a skillful artist to make
her own gowns beautiful or dispose
OF such work where it is wanted.
In doing this painting a certain de
sign Is chosen, perhaps a spray o.
flowers of the colors desired, and thi,
design can then be repeated in tn,
various parts of the gown, the size
the design depending on where it is tc
be used. Such gown could have the
sash ends, fiat yoke or collar. Skin.
panels or other skirt decorations al
painted with the desired pattern. Rib
bon painted with a smaller pattern O,
the same design may also be used.
Blouses painted with floral or but
terfiy designs are very popular abroad
and are sure to be worn here.

Of this place just such cure Is found
In Dodd's Kidney Pills. Mr.. Davis

"Dodd's Kidney Pills are all that is

Curious Combination.

A curious fashion which has made
its appearance of late is that of
wearing a ceinture of black taffeta
with colored costume. To accom-
pany it there is generally a rosette
Of black taffeta worn on one side of
the corsage, and sometimes the same
is repeated on the sleeves. The effect
is not always of the happiest, especial
ly when the gown is trimmed with a
different colored material to that of
which it is made, and it may be doubt
ed whether the vogue will be of long
duration.

This Seasons Laces.

Multlform uses for lace this season
make the ransacking of bureau draw
ers, work bags, trunks and all kinds
of storage corners a profitable bust
ness. Any sort of lace can be utilized,
heavy or fine, ancient or modern,
black, white or yellow. If you have
only scrap you can use it in con-
nection with ribbon for some sort of
a neck piece. If little more, 1t may
do for hat; one kind will serve for
the crown and another for the brim.
Allover lace hats for dressy occasions
are as becoming as they are of the
mode.
The felt or velvet hat may be given
an up-to-date touch by the addition of
a ruching Of lace.
Lace joined by handwork makes the
prettiest sort of an evening bodice.
The girl who is clever at that sort of
thing can get up fancy waist for six
or eight dollars that would cost her
fifty in the shop.
