Beauty according to the American
idea would be incomprehensible TO the
JAPANESE Their idea of classic beauty
calls for a long oval face regular
Features, almond shaped eyes, sloping
slightly forward a high narrow fore
head and an abundance of smooth
black hair.
Japanese women are extremely grace
sfai tn their movements, though the
style OF their dress prevents them from
walking with ease They have dainty
delicate hands and feet, and their man
ners are unquestionably charming. One
wonders how the little ladies employ
their time as there seems SO little to
be done in a JaDanese house, and they
take no outdoor exercise. To begin
with. there are no regular meals the
nearby shops sunlying numberless
dainty disheg that seem to be eaten at
ali hours of the DAY. Very little Is kept
IN the larder except some slices of

! RAGE FOR KHAKI.

Khaki, all the different shades of
THE color worn by the soldiers in the
South African war, has taken a new
hold upon the women OF fashion and
Is as much a favorite as were the
golden browns OF spring. One would
not imagine that there could be so
many different shades Of SO insignia
cant color. Sometimes raw. some
times brazen, and again tndistinct or
tone, IL takes expert handling TO be
made into the exquisite creations over
which the fashionable world Is raving.
One OF the smartest specimens OF
khaki silk was trimmed with pipings
OF delicate green silk and a heavy
linen lace. KimOna coats Of khaki
silk are stitched with fancy embroid-
cries and some Of the long models
are taken as an excuse for the en-
lployment OF quantities of handsome
lace in white and neutral tints.
Both the khaki fabrics and the Jap
anese lines In fashion are so good and
oriental in effect, that IL is not sur
prising the Parisiennes employ them
in the choice morsels of the midsum-
rner wardrobe.
IN spite OF the flattering attention
paid to khaki and everything sugges-
tive OF brown, one cannot pass un-
noticed the exquisite shades OF green,
the newest OF which is gooseberry--
d dainty whitish green, as cool and
refreshing as the proverbial cucumber.
Gooseberry net is very nicely adapted
10 evening frocks, the skirts being
trimmed with a trail of leaves. roses
and buds worked in various shades of
green and touched with silver.

sHEps AND BARNS FoR COWS

Right now, many are planning to
build new quarters for their cows, or
to repair the old buildings. One way
is to put in modern appliances and
make the cows easy and comfortable;
the other way Is merely to make an
open shed and keep the cows huddled
UP under this in order to keep from
freezing. Mich COWS are nervous, and
usually heavy feeders. They want
things about them quiet. II one would
notice the habits of cows while they
are lying around the pastures. he no
doubt would get some good ideas on
the care OF them. Cows never crowd
one another, unless they are driven to
It: and they seldom get unruly, unless
they are crowded Keep these things
In mind when building the COW barn
or stables. Make the barn big enough
so that there is ample room for each
COW. Put In easy stanchions. Some peo-
pie claim that stanchions make cows
nervous. II the stall is roonny and the
stanchion Is made right. it will be no
trouble at all to get the cows to walk
to their places and remain there per-
fectly contented. In fact have seen
COWS that would refuse to let down
their milk outside of their regular place
in the stanchions. Sheds are all right
| for shelter, but good, warm stable is
! the only place for the cows during cold
weather.

WASTING CROPS.

Only a few years ago the practice OF
turning fattening cattle into the ripened
corn fields was condemned as wasteful,
and not much was thought OF the farm
er who harvested his corn in this man
ner. OF late years the practice has
been growing more common, probably
because OF the difficulty in getting help
70 husk out the corn. A big Missouri
corn grower and feeder handles sew
eral hundred acres In this way every
fall: and, while there is some waste,
hogs usually follow and gather up
most OF the ears which are knocked Off.
Some have gone little farther and
planted COW peas. which helps to bal
ance the ration. Sheep feeders have
fallen into the same practice. From
what have seen Go not think that
sheep waste as much as cattle. They
can be turned in earher, and they strip
the stalks OF all the lower blades, be-
fore beginning on the ears. Some have
tried sowing rape In the corn. The
sheep like II and thrive.
