From the New York Evening Telegram. A recent newspaper account rather in- considerably spoke of matron of the smart set as "marvelousy made up." That. of course, was not written by the society ohronicler. He. perforce is n man of eyes and depthless appreciation. He Is never critic by any mischance. and so must be happy to degree.
 An out-of-town observer who visited the opera eae brilliant night declared that some of the beauties of Belgravia so far excelled the stage artists in 'make-up'' as to raise the art almost to a divine plane. A cosmopolitan Englishman comes forward with his testimony saying that he was struck by the number of "artifl- cialized' women he saw in New York. Close scrutiny of the material which passed before his eyes might lead to in- teresting conclusions.
 It is safe to say that these conditions yariously observed are purely local and are in no wise true of the great body of American women. Vanity knows no geo. graphical limit. and what Is true of one woman of an advanced civilization is likely to be true of another when 1t comes to dress, ornamentation. and the legerde- main of the toilet.

An Eccentric Lord.

From Leslies Weekly.
 One of the most eccentric characters in England Is Lord Grimthorpe, now nearly ninety years old, bur still hale and busy He is a man of many fads and hobbies, and one of these is clock making. He designed the biggest time piece in Great Britain, the clock of the cathedral of St. Paul, in London, and he also is the designer of the great clock in the Victoria Tower of the houses of parliament. Doubtless it was his use fitness in this line that caused him to be elected president of the British Horo- logical institute His 1ordship is also an ecclesiastical architect of note, and his plans have been followed in the building of churches and the restoration of cath edrals. He declines any remuneration for his services, but he insists that his crest, which is a boar's head, shall be prominently displayed in the sacred edi- fees for which he has made designs The display of eccentricity on his part is not taken altogether in good part by those whom he has beneflted, but there seems to have been no serious protest against it. As president of the church of Eng land Burial association. Lord Grim thorpe is working to abolish the embalm- ing of corpses, hermetically sealed cas- kets, vaults and tombs, and to bring about the use of wickerwork collins, which will permit the rapid dissolution of dead bodies. In this latter endeavor he has the approval of King Edward the head of the English church. Among other tokens of Lord Grimthorpe's activ- ity are many practical treatises on bells, watches, and clock-making.

New Orleans, January 1.-The eastern contingent landed another stake today when Brooklyn galloped home in the Jackson handicap, worth s124O to the win ner. The colt, always favorite, carried most of the money wagered on the race.

Miss Cosette scored quite as easily in the three and one-half furlong sprint for two-year-old fillies In the last race Benson Caldwell was bumped into at the start and Romanelli, who rode him, was unseated. The old gelding then ran away two miles. Poseur and Showdown were the only beaten fav- orites.

A splendid lot of Duroc Jersey swine
is kept. A bunch of these animals
are shown i'm the accompanying pic
ture. They are fed upon skinned and
butter milk. These pigs are readily
sold at a good price. This farm has
been run exclusively as dairy farm
for the past six years. Prior to that,
for ten years, it was conducted partly
as a dairy farm. Not stalk of cot
ton has been grown on the place for
six years. When the land was pur
chased about is years ago, it was
worth about $40 per acre. This farm
is cultivated according to methods and
plans prepared by Prof. SpilIman who
has charge of the diversificatiOn- work
of the United States Department of
Agriculture. Early i'm August an in
stitute was held on this farm. 1t was
estimated that there were nearly 5000
persons present. Farmers are greatly
interested i'm this diversified farming
and are prOfiting by these object les
sons. There is room for many more
such farms. American Agriculturist
cOmmends this splendid work by the
department and hopes more of it will
be conducted in the future.

Horticultural Commission.

The orange growers of Orange
county seem to be very much in ear
nest in their efforts to get rid of the
white fly, judging from a report of a
meeting as published in the Orange
County Reporter:
The Board Of Horticultural Commits
sion met at the court house yesterday
with all members present, namely,
Messrs. T. l.. Meade, Geo. III. Fernald,
w. L. Story, J. A. Smith and E. M.
Walker
The following resolutions were
unanimously passed:
Resolved, That as the white fly
breeds only On foliage, and as so many
nurseries of citrus stock are already
infested with this pest, this commits
sion strongly advises and urges all
persons planting such citrus stock in
places not already infested by white
fly to defOliate stock before planting
and to promptly burn all the foliage
removed.
Resolved that the United States
Agricultural Department be requested
to inform the Board of Horticulture
Commissioners of Orange county
Florida, whether it would be possible
and practicable to import any parasites
of aleyrOdes citricOla, commonly called
the white fly, from the native country
of this pest, and if so whether the de
partment could take charge of this
work.

the average is from five to eight tons.
AS soon as the silage crops are cut,
they are carried to the barn and run
through machine and cut in One-half
to three-fourths inches lengths. There
are three silos at the barn; the two
small ones have capacity of 100 tons
each, while the large one holds 800
tons The cost of producing ton Of
silage and putting it in the silo is from
81 to $1.25 per ton.
FEEDING AND MANAGEMENT OF
THE HERD.
The cattle are also fed cottonseed
meal, corn meal and bran. The plan
is to feed each COW a mixture consist
ing of three parts each of these in
gradients, giving each animal one
pound of this mixture per day, for
every pound of butter she makes
during the week. That is, if the cow
makes seven pounds of butter each
week, she is fed seven pounds of this
mixture each day. If COW is fed
six pounds. she should have % pounds
silage and eight pounds dry hay. If
alfalfa hay is fed, the grain mixture
can be cut in half, or omitted alto
gether, though it would probably be
better to feed some grains.
There are on this farm 145 head of
cattle at the present time. There are
10 mich cows, mostly Jersey and
grades, three Jersey bulls, besides
the dry cattle and calves. These cat
tie are housed in a barn at night
The drOppings are hauled out each
morning and scattered over the land.

ing time they are assisted by three
boys The cows are brushed and
rubbed thoroughly each day. They
are then MIXED and fed. 1t requires
about one and One-half hours to milk
and 30 minutes to feed. Water is
supplied by a tank and windmill.
There is a drinking place between
each two stalls. The drinking tubes
| are on a level and supplied with
| water by an automatic arrangement.
The products sold consist of butter
and sweet milk. About $3.50 worth
of milk is sold in Commerce. a town
| of about $500 inhabitants. About SO
pounds of butter are made each day
| This is sold by contract to ain Atlanta
firm at % cents per pound. Sweet
milk is sold locally at 10 cents per
gallon. The gross income from this
farm in 1908 was about $500. The
net income that year was about $2a
per acre. improvements i'm the crop
ping system noted above were made
last year and from figures furnished
| by Prof. Spillman, the Indications are
that the gross income this year will
be, from the 1876 acres under cultiva-

Resolved, That the chairman of this
commission be requested to go to the
proper counties and make arrange
ments with owners of groves where
the AschersOnia fungus is abundant,
for the supply of this fungus to be
distributed by this board to owners
of groves in Orange county, which are
infested by the white fly.
Resolved. That the red and the
brown AschersOnia fungus are recon-
mended as a help in the destruction
of the white fly and harmless to all
vegetation. and all owners of white
fly infested groves are advised and
urged to introduce this fungus by
pinning leaves containing it to their
trees.
The commissioners will supply
packages of fresh leaves containing
the AschersOnia fungus for this use
to applicants free of charge.
