The WAY to Make Hens Moult.

One of the achievements of modern
poultry keeping is that OF forcing a hen
to doff her old coat, and grow new one
before the time when she would do SO
naturally. Many hens shed their feath-
ers so late in the season. naturally that
cold weather overtakes them before they
get new suits, consequently they seldom
begin laying before spring. If the mOult
can be fastened so that new coat of
feathers is grown and the laying can be
started before cold weather, the prospect
is good for supply of eggs during fall
and winter.
The result is usually accomplished by
cutting off all meat and mash foods. put
ting the hens on short rations of grain
for week or so to stop the laying, then
allow more liberty and feed full ration
high ! protein. This loosens the old
feathers. which drop off quickly. and
starts n rapid growth of the new. \
liberal allowance of beet scrap is essen
tial. and linseed meal is an advantage.
Sunfower seeds are also good during the
moult.-Farming

The Solids in Milk.

Where the dairyman sells milk from
herd it is impossible for him to be al
ways informed regarding the quality of
the milk produced by his cows, as they
differe greatly, each cow being an indi-
vidual to be considered. Even the solids
are not exempt, as they are not uniform
in the relative proportion of fat, casein,
etc, while their value depends upon the
preferences of the buyer. The fat in the
milk is the portion that is believed by
the consumer to give the greatest value,
vet the purchaser. while beng guarded
in securing the proper proportion of
solids. may receive all that he expected
and yet not receive milk as rich in cream
as his neighbor. who procured milk CON
taining the same proportions of solid
matter, and, while it may be the case
that milk is fully up to all the require
ments of the law. vet the purchaser will
be no wiser than before. The dairyman
cannot guarantee Il certain grade of milk
daily, as its quality is not fully within
his control. To estimate milk by the
relative proportion of solids and liquids
does not insure to the consumer that he
receives all to which he rs entitled. as
it is an actual fact that the more fat
i'll the milk the less it costs the dairy
man and the poorer the milk in quality

Keep the Garden BUSY.

Your chief aim should be to keep your
garden busy the whole year. You will
always find in the planting tables some
useful crop that will fill in where one
has been harvested. If toward the end
of the season-say the middle of August
you have more empty space than you
need for succcesssional sowing, it will
pay to fork over the ground and SOW
white mustard. or any green crop that
grows quickly, to be turned under for
manure. Remember this: An empty
garden is always weedy one 1t is
less trouble to sow such a crop than it
is to Zoe the weeds, and there are no
bad after effects Aim to plant in each
plot as nearly as possible such things as
can be harvested about the same time.
1t facilitates the work greatly, and looks
better. Imagine manuring and forking
over three feet. then skipping ten or
fifteen feet, and forking three feet more.
More time is wasted than would be nee
essary to cultivate whole plOt.-Gar-
den Magazine.

throughout the west is so great that the
whole farming system is built up with
reference to the harvesting and utiliza-

efforts were made to grow it in Jefferson

Importance of Cooling Mix.

Probably the most important precau-
ton that can be taken with milk is 10
cool it as quickly as possible after it is
drawn. AT temperature of 60 degrees
+. and lower the germs grow but slow
~. Ordinary well or spring water has
temperature of between 80 and 60 de-
grees f. If the farmer has an open
water supply he also has a refrigerator
that is cooler than the ordinary ice box.
If the cans are lowered into the spring
or well as soon as possible after milking
the milk will be cooled before the germs
can have time to begin their growth.
The proof of the effectiveness of the
plan is seen on country milk routes
where on the morning rounds evening
milk that has been cooled in this manner
and warm mornings milk are carried in
separate cans. Customers demand the
warm mornings milk as a guarantee of
purity, and yet the cold evenings milk
invariably keeps the better.
If the germs in milk that is produced
under ordinary conditions are killed
within two or three hours after milking.

used for nearly all purposes. In order
to kill the microbes it is not necessary

some creameries ordinary farmers milk

which is hct and the other end cold.
Within half minute the milk is heated
and then cooled. Such milk is safe and
wholesome. Doubtless this method of
treatment will be increasingly used. The
principle is the same that is applied in

SHOES AND GRACEFUL WALKING.
How French Women Select Shoes and
Care for Them.

All of the cities on the continent"
said a prominent Wholesale shoe mer-
chant who has just returned from his
first trip abroad, ARE full of graceful
walkers of the feminine sex. This is
more noticeable to the American. prob
ably for the reason that here, in our
larger cities especially, we see so little
of that kind.
The reason American women don't
walk well, as a rule, is that their shoes
are uncomfortable and the heels are too
high. A French woman can walk all
day without a protest. And regardless
of the fact that she wears those much
abused French heels. But that is just
where the mistake is made. The Ameri-
can manufacturer has, in. his endeavor
TO provide something quite dashing.
tackled onto the heel seat of some of the
shoes heel mOnstrOsity which throws
the average French custom shoemaker
into rage at the sight of it.
What the French woman really wears
for street wear is the old-fashoned 11S
or IA Louis heel with the broad top
lift. which gives as much surface on
which TO walk as the ordinary
military heel of the present day.
Then she wears her shoes to
tit her feet according to the shape the

is the kind of shoes she buys or has
made: if short, wide and square it is the
short vamp and broad toe that is select
ed. And above all other -hings-they
are never tight
Said a well-known gymnasium teach
er to me: 1t is impossible for a woman
to be awkward in her walk if she will
wear a shoe with heel not exceeding
liz inches in height, and when she puts
her foot down have the toes turned out
ward. The former restriction permits
her to follow the rule of putting the ball
of the foot down first, ALL the latter IS
the natural position of the foot if it is
put down naturally with the TALL first.
Il was also told by many shoemak
ers abroad that it is the usual, rather
than the unusual thing for the woman
of average means to possess eight or nine
pairs of shoes, and change often. These
were street shoes, to which he referred.
Another good and sensible thing those
foreigners do is to frequently have new
kid Innings pat n their shoes This, they
claim. makes the shoe feel fresher and
prevents blsters.
There is much to be learned from the
foreigners in the selection and care of
shoes. but the thing that strikes me as
being the fundamental principle, or ut-
ference. between the Al erican woman
and her sister abroad lies in the fact that
the former selects her shoes with but the
one thought of style while the latter
looks for comfort and utility first and
then style'-The Shoe Retailer.
