The Pagoaa Hat.

In another place found d hat shaped
like lamp shade and called pagoda.
1t was fiat and round, but there were
eight corners where the brim was
pinched up into sharp points. The
crown was rather high and had a fat
Alsatian bow with a Jeweled buckle
directly in front. Other shapes show a
turban front, sometimes with and
sometimes without visible crown.
There is literally no limit to the ca
prices of the milliners in trimming
these hats. Some have little rosettes
set upright all around the brinl, and
these are of metal in many pretty fan

trying to tell half their glories, but the
most salient point about them all is
the use of p1umes. No trim ing is

NOTHING AGREES WITH me-,

Do you ever say that-1o you ever feel
that life isn't worth living because you are

An EARLY Summer Crop Easily Sold

Tomatoes have been forced as an
early summer crop at the Ohio expert
ment station for about twelve years
with uniformly good results, and the
product has been sold at remuneratiye
prices
While the prices in the eastern mar
ketS are sufficiently high to warrant
the midwinter forcing of tomatoes in
that section, the prices received here at
that season Of the year are not sufi-
cient to cover the cost of production.
At the station tomatoes forced in
spring and early summer have not only
sold readily, but the cost Of production
Is SO much less at that season than in
midWinter that they have proved 2
very profitable vegetable for forcing.
Greenhouse tomatoes, because of SUI
perior quality, sell more readily and at
much higher prices than the southern
grown product on the same market
At the station tomatoes grown in the
spring have been much more profitable
than either lettuce or cucumbers grown
at the same season.

pounds per- square foot and the average

CARE. OF BREEDING SHEEP
Liberal Feeding Necessary to Pre-
pare Them For Lam bling.

Liberal KeetiinS Necessary to Pre-
pare Them For LasnbinE.
Breeding ewes require ten to fifteen
square feet of space in building anu
ewes weighing from 150 to 200 pounds
should have an allowance Of Is feet at
the feeding rack, writes John A. Craig
in the Farm Home. Less than this
causes too much croWding at feeding
time, which often results in the birth
of dead lambs.
Breeding ewes need not be fed more
than twice daily 1t is q good practice,
however, to feed them some fodder
outside during the winter season, for
in this way they are induced to take
some exercise With this in view the
fodder may be taken some distance
from the building ia which the sheep
are housed.
In practical way the shepherd
should regulate the quantity of food
according to the condition Of the ewes

more heavily than if they We're fat at

VETS furnishes the best indication as to
their condition, and this will indicate
the quantity of food that should be
fed. In the authors experience the
aim has always been to keep the
breeding fiocks in condition which
the general farmer would term fat, !"
and only good results in lambs have
come from this management.
When ewes are firm fleshed through
abundant feed and exercise they are
vigorous, and a healthy flock of lambs
is likely to be the outcome. In general,
a breeding eve weighing $50 pounds
requires daily about one-half pound of
such grain as bran and oats, two
pounds of succulent food and the same
weight of such dry fodder as clover,
hay or cut corn fodder As lambing
time approaches twice this amount of
grain will be required. The quantity
Of the fodder and grain will have an
influence on the amounts to be fed, but
the controlling factor should be the
condition of the ewes. Overlooking.
especially if associated with lack of
exercise, will be productive of disease
in the flock, and it is likely to result in
the birth of large weak lambs. while
undertaking is equally favorable for
disease and the birth of understood

Subirrigation or mulching is essential

DDS
Ordinarily the tomato plants were
set two feet APART each way and trained
to two stems, but recent tests seem to
indicate that plants set one foot apart
each way and trained to one stem will
give higher yield and ripen earlier.
For a spring and early summer crop
the seed should be sown in fats about
the 1st of December. The plants may
be pricked off into pots or flats, fats
being more economical The second
and third shifts should be made into
pots.
Under ordinary care plants from seed
sown Dec will be ready to set in the
permanent beds about the middle Of
March, and the fruit will begin to ripen
from the 1st to the middle of June.
