FADs IN STATIONERY

When the thoroly equipped summer
girl answers the notes OF her newest
recruit she must use stationery Of the
palest heliotrope. Her seal must be Of
the same hue, and the latest fat is that
her ink must be scented with the same
flower. Count Boni, the husband Of
Anna Gould, is credited with introduce
ing this novelty into the land Of the
free. He shocked the proprietors Of
Leon, in st: Augustine, by sending for
ink perfumed with violets. Common
ink, with its plebeian odor, Count Boni
asserted, was impossible. SO perfumed
Ink is going the rounds, and it is essen-
tial as sachet bags for the chiffonier or
essence for the handkerchiefs. KYa-
einth is a favorite scent for ink, for,
being rather strong, it retains Its odor
much longer. 81

The clover root borer is d small
brown insect whose young is a white
grub with brown head and jaws. As
rule, clover infested with this pest be-
gins to die in spots over the field in
late July or August. Ordinarily, If this
injury is noted by the farmer it is at
tributed to the effect of dry weather,
and the further destruction that may
not become more obvious until the fol-
lowing spring is charged up to the eff
feet of winter. Now the young of tue
borer are footless grubs without eyes,
and living roots are with them essential
to life. Let the roots wither or die
while the grubs are still young and they
must perish. If while the insects are IN
this helpless stage, which continues
some time after the hay crop has been
removed, the land Is broken and the
clover roots thrown up to the action of
sun and wind these Will wither and dry
out, thus destroying the insects infest-
ing them. While this does not save the
clover. it destroys the pest 80 that 1t
does not develop and make its way to
other fields.

ture rape stands unequaled among
crops suitable for swine 1t should be
sown in rows two feet apart ON stub
bic, fallow or well rotted sod at the
rate of three pounds per acre. 1t may
be sown any time, as long as there re-
main six weeks of growing weather
before severe frosts are to be expect
ed. If intended to be pastured the
pigs should be turned In before the
rape comes up to the top of their
shoulders. No greater area should be
given than they are likely to keep

may be exsected from soiling than
from pasturing given area. Feed

rapid gains when it is being fed to
them in moderate quantities in pens
than when at pasture on 1t. Breeding
stock are likely to do better when they
can use it as pasture. Feeding pigs
receiving all the rape they will eat on
rape pasture should receive somewhat
less meal than they would IL in their
pens. From one-thrd to tive-sixths of
the regular ration should be fed; the
more rapid the gain desired, of course,

A farmer living down toward Har-
wards had a most knowing pig which
he sold to a Little Islander, who took
his prize IN boat to his home at the
island. Safely shut up in the spacious
pigpen was the new inmate of the
family, and the farmer man went
peacefully to rest, much content with
his new purchase. In the morning the
pen was empty and no little pig could
be found on the island. Some time
afterward he went again to town and
there saw the first owner of the lost
one. I've lost my pig" he gloomily
announced Il know it," chuckled his
friend Hes down to my house; came

The YiIAare Rctcher.

The village butchers possible rehabil-
itation may be one factor in an in
crease of the farmers receipts for his
products. While the large cities are
making an appeal for home dressed
meats, the consumer there cannot be
so certain of getting what he asks for
as can the resident of the village and
OF the smaller cities and towns, where,
with populations of 5000 to 10000 or
1900, nearly every one knows his
butcher" and can more nearly depend
on home killed products, so that the
supply will be fairly represented by
the demand, and such butchers will, as
general rule, offer a more ready
market at higher prices for nearby
live stock of all kinds. This may be
better for the local butcher or may
not. However, the natural deduction
is that it would be better for the farm
