Opal DandeIions Now.

A hair ornament of wonderful
beauty is in the form of dandelion
seed ball. Each seed is a small, white
opal, set upon a slender silver wire.
The workmanship of this delicate
thing is beyond reproach, as the
slightest touch or breath of air will
set it all aquiver.
Another ornament is in the shape Of
a dragon fly. The body is one mass
of brilliant gems. A great ruby is
set into the head and the eyes are of
opals. But all this solidity is lost
when it comes to the wings, which
are fashioned of special metal,
drawn to the fineness of thread. and
then woven with faithful accuracy to
the structure of natural wing. The
effect is beyond description.
At last some genius, at loss for new
iceas. has utilized the wild carrot in
hair ornaments. An example is one
representing the full-blown flower, the
center of a solid mass of opals. the
surrounding circles being of white
enamel. The entire flower is worked
out in detail. and diamonds further
separate the natural divisions of the
bloom.

Fall sown Onions.

A correspondent for the Farm Jour
nal disposes of the onion question in
the following manner:
Here is the way l plant my onions ::
Spade and thoroughly prepare the
ground about the tenth of November;
plant and then cover with straw or
other mulch for the winter. Remove
the mulch about the middle of March,
and top-dress literally with manure.
Cultivate as soon as ground is dry
enough to work and you will have
onions fit for a queen"
In absence of definite information
on this point, it may be inferred that
this applies to onions raised from
seed. Would this be a good plan to
follow in case of sets or button
onions? Perhaps it would be as well,
as to set them in the spring if the
mulch were thick enough, but the mid
die of March would be early to re-
move the covering in this climate.
Onions are tough and little freeze
does not seriously injure the young
plants. If there is any seed on hand
the plan is a good one to try.

coo,ino Milk in Winter

Most milk producers now know that
milk must be quickly cooled in sum-
mer to increase its keeping power,
but many do not know that the proc
ess is also necessary in winter. Men
that make a business of delivering
milk know that at certain times in
winter they have as much trouble
with milk souring as they do in the
summer. The cooling of milk in the
winter should be done in exactly
the same way as it is in summer;
namely, by placing the milk in cans
in tanks of cold water as soon rs the
milk is drawn from the cows In the
winter ice and snow may be easily
obtained for reducing the temperature
of the water in the tank AS this is
entirely without expense there is no
good reason why it should not be
done Milk for all purposes will then
keep very much longer than if it is
not cooled after being drawn

Dwarf Fruit Trees.

Dwarfing is accomplished by bud

with most fruit trees. While the
dwarf pear is the most familiar ex-s
ample of dwarf tree in the United
States, there are stocks upon which
apples, cherries, plums and peaches
can be grown with the same general
result. Besides this form of modifica-.
ton, there are other methods quite
as important to the owners of smaH
area Standard sizes may. be grown
as bushes" or as pyramids" thus
making it possible to grow them closer
together. Pruning and training, used
in combination, have shown the pos
sibilities of restricting plants to the
"espalier,'' Gordon" and other styles
of training employed in growing
fruits against walls. These methods
not only allow plants to be grown
more closely than is common in or
chard practice, but they allow the
grower to take advantage of locations
and conditions under which trees
could not develop normally. The side
of building may be utilized as a
support to1an apricot, nectarine, pear,
or grape, although the grape is the

Boil one pint of gravy from the kettle
without the fat, add cayenne pepper
and half a teaspoonful of salt; stir a
tablespoonful of flour into a quarter
of pint of cream until smooth, and
add to the gravy. Cornstarch may be
used instead of the flour, and some
cooks add nutmeg or celery salt
