BARN DOOR FRAME.

satisfactory the hinge door is, always
sasging and being torn to pieces. With
the double hinge door, as 1t is common
ly seen. the lower one can be closed
and the upper one left open SO as to
allow better ventilation and light
Where there Is a wide door the hinge
is inpracticable. and then the track
hung door will have to be used. But
that, when closed. Is entirely closed
and admits no light y window sash
might be put In. but that IS TOO easily
broken to be practicable.
My idea is to make n strong frame
according to the illustration. The
sketch shows door by feet. franz
ed with by 6 inch pine mortiscd to-
getl1er and braced in the lower portion
with common two by fours. The low
el. part is then boarded up solid, the
upper ends of the boards being beveled
and coming to within about two inches

Dn1ryinr rant Pays.

In q series OF institutes in the north
eastern counties OF Pennsylvania
found that farmers are specializing to
a much greater extent. in that section
than in many other sections Of the
state, says l.. W. Lightly in National
Stcckman Quite number of dairy
men are putting in plants of their own
for Duttermnking and are devodng
all their thought and energies along
that line. In number OF instances
they sent their sons to the state col
lece to take n short course and are put
ting on the market first class butter
In every instance of this kind l learn
cd that the demand was greater than
the supply of butter at very good
price The universal verdict OF those
men was that, while dairying Is hard
and slavish work beca use of the mi
mute and constant attention that the
details of the business require, 1t pays
a handsome profit

Then boards are cut and fitted in the
shape of Il door for the upper part.
Two 1 by 6 inch boards will serve for
clcats. The corners are then cut SO that
they Will not interfere with the hanger
The door is then placed and hung by
two fat hinges, and the upper side Is fit
ted with a spring catch having small
chain attached to unfasten with. 1t
can be readily seen that this door can
be .'opened down" while the main part
Is closed, preventing any live stock
from passing in or out. These plans

Increa sed profits for grape growers
are among the fair possibilities The
American Grape Acid association OF
California offers $4,000 for the best
formula, with the right to use it, by
which grapes containing over ~ per
cent saccharin and valued at $40 per
ton can be turned Into tartaric acid at
a price which will permit exporta ton
without loss. Here is q splendid re-
ward for some chemist, who, besides
the money compensation, will receive
the gratitude Of the grape growers OF
the. Pacific past states. 1t is also pro
posed to utilize the acid in the residue
from grapes pressed for wine. This
acid, when properly treated, also makes
tartaric acid and cream OF tartar. AS
there is Il great market for these prod

lance of utilizing grape acid for the
purpose is apparent o. Orange Judd

WELLESLEY CLUB LUNCHEON.

"If there IS n son and daughter in a family
and both cannot to college. there IS very little
hesitation In these days to which 1t shall be-"
said Mrs. Mary E. Woolley, president of Mount
Holyoke College before the Wellesley Club at its
annual luncheon at the Park Avenue Hotel yes
terdsy. 1T IS taken for granted that the daughter
must go anyway. and the II possible.
FOR women TO so to college has become almost a
fad continued Miss Wooey. "and the greatest
difference between the woman's college of yester-
day and the woman's college OF to-day is in the
number OF students There is also marked differ
between American and European wonen's
colleges. and from this probably grows another
difference. namely the varied attractions of Ameri-
can women colleges compared with European.
recent critic OF the subject has noted that in the
women's colleges OF America the students edi-
tors players philanthropists. presidents OF clubs
and many other things besides students. There is
perhaps a danger in this. We do not want the rich
ness and variety of college life to invade the
scholastic calm that ought to prevail there. but at
the same time 1t is desirable that our colleges
should be preparatory schools for life"
Speaking of athletics in womens colleges Miss
wooey said that there was not much Likelihood
of their becoming danger, as in the case or mems

HOW A BEAR eEFRIENDED A BOY.

Duke Leopold. OF Lorraine. was very fond OF
animals. and especially Of huge fierce bear whom
he called Marco and kept in hut in the corner Of
his park Sometimes. still fast 10 q heavy chain,
Marco would consent TO dance or perform tricks
for the amusement of the dukes friends. but IL at
any time he swung his shaggy head out OF the door
of his hut and showed his long, sharp teeth no one
dared 10 go near him. for he had killed several
attendants.
But one night. after he had passed a particularly
i'll tempered and surly day. and had swallowed most
of his supper with a few savage gulps. small
barefoot boy who had lost his way In the dukes
forests and crying with cold. stopped at the
door of the hut He had once seen the bear per-
forming in one of his pleasant moods. and did not
know how ferocious a beast 1t could be. So. into
the hut he walked and cuddled close 20 the great
animals shaggy coat. Thus the two slept the
night through. and In the morning Marco cheerfully
shared his breakfast with his new found friend.
For days the boy lived comfortably with the
bear, fearing TO show himself until the storm was
over. lest some OF the dukes men should send him
away. One Of these. however. who fingered a mo-
ment after depositing Bruins meal noticed that
the bear only shifted at the food and kept looking

AN ATTRACTIVE DINING ROOM.
The Prevailing Tone, Golden, Is Produced
by a Dominant Note of Amber.

The world is making discoveries In the art of

This is amber shading TO clear, creamy yellow

woodwork Is of black oak, and between the heavy
