such as an old blanket, and over this

A fire of even strength should be
kept up on ironing day. The fire
should not be allowed to burn up too
rapidly or produce at any time a white
heat.
If the irons begin to lack smooth
ness, apply salt, wipe, add a bit of
bees'wax and wipe again. The iron
should be moved regularly and unin-
terruptedly without being raised from
the board; press lightly at first and
more heavily as the wrinkles or creas-
es disappear. During the intervals
when the heat of the fire is less in
tense and the irons somewhat cooler
the small Or coarse pieces should be
ironed. Starched articles should al
ways have a hot iron. Borders Of
articles are to be ironed first and then
drawn carefully into shape. Initials
and monograms should be ironed on
the wrong side and heavily pressed
downward into some soft flannel or
woollen material placed underneath,

York who is obliged to earn her own
living, has invented a new scrap
basket, copies of which have been
bought by many we1l-known people.
The outside of the basket is made en-
tirely of bands Of fowered ribbon on
heavy cardboard, with large bow of
the same ribbon in the center. Inside
is placed a tin receptacle which can
be taken out and washed and put in
again. For bedrooms these baskets
are made of very bright-co1ored rib
bons, for the hall the colors are more
subdued and for the library and din
ing room they are made of exquisite
shades of reds and Greens. For the
drawing-room the ribbon is on the
pastel shades and of the very finest
quality. With a little ingenuity these
baskets could be very easily copied.

Rowel1 Hit Again.

"With potatoes being shipped by
the trainload from Hastings, celery
from Sanford, Strawberries from
Starke, vegetables and fruits from va
rlous sections, to say nothing of the
commercial, fishing, manufacturing,
mining, stock-raising, and all~other in
dustries which contribute to the pros
perity of the state; it is apparent that
George Rowel1 knew little of Florida
when he wrote that he could find mo
source Of wealth worth mentioning
other than lumber and tourists"
This is the comment of the Pa1atka
Times-Herald, and it is just. The
Times-Herald might also have men
toned the million dollars obtained by
the tomato and truck growers in Dade
county for the present crop-St

Keeping Knives Bright.

A novel method Of preserving steel
knives and keeping them bright after
using occurred to busy woman. She
filled fowerpot with clean fine sand
and set it in her kitchen dish closet.
In putting away the secured steel
knives instead of laying them in a
drawer or knife box she stuck them,
blades down, in the pot of sand as
she would stick pins in a cushion.
The sand kept them SO beautifully
that unless they were used to cut
some acid thing they never needed
securing.

Fun in the Home.

The home should be made the jol-
liest place on earth for the children.
Don't be afraid of little fun at the
family freside. Don't let the boys
think that all mirth and social enjoy
ment is barred from the home, if you
wish to keep them away from places
that lead to vice and degradation.
Young people must have fun and re-
taxation somewhere, and if they do
not find it in their home, they will
seek it at other and less desirable
places. Parents should not repress
the buoyant spirits of their children,
but join in their merriment around
the home hreside The children will
lose none of their respect for their
father or mother if they occasionally
loosen their "dignity' and take part
in the children's fun and sport. An
evenings s romp and play with the
young folks will drive dull care away
and dispel the memory of many an
annoyance of the day. Have fun at
home.

One Way of Curing a Bad Habit.

A great many mothers complain Of
the habit their small children have of
poking things up their nose. I want
to tell them how I cured my little
boy of this rather dangerous habit.
I gave him small quinine pill, which
after playing with awhile, he as usual,
pushed up his nose, where it lodged,
then slowly dissolved, giving him the
full benefit of the bitter taste. This
was the last of his experiments along
that line.

GRlNpING CORN.

The Wisconsin experiment station
has been conducting feeding expert
ments for the past ten years, and one
point of interest which has been de-
termined quite conclusively Is the rela-
tive feeding value of ground and IN
ground corn. The tests showed that
grinding corn adds 6 per cent to it's
feeding value. That is, If corn is worth
25 cents per bushel, it is worth IL
cents more if ground; if so cents per
bushel, 3 cents more. In view of these
figures the only other factor that needs
to be considered is the cost Of grinding,
matter which each feeder must figure
out for himself. 1t was also deter
mined in the conduct of the expert
ments that cornmeal was preferable
to shelled corn when forced feeding or
finishing was desired.

A COLD STORAGE EXPERIMENT

A COLD STORAGE EXPERIMENT.
A cold storage experiment conducted
by the Iowa experiment station in CO.
operation with the United States di-
vision Of pomology during the past
winter presents some results that will
be Of interest to apple growers. A
number Of varieties were put in stor-
age about Oct. 1 under as nearly the
same conditions of picking and pack
ing as possible. They were taken out
of storage May z. 1t was found that
the Wealthy, which is recognized as
merely fall and early winter apple,
showed more sound fruit at the end Of
the period than Northwestern Green
ing, which is a strictly winter apple.
The Black Annette, Grimes Golden
and Sheriff were badly scalded, while
the Canada Baldwin, Aliens Choice
and Roman Stem were in fine condition.
as were also the Scott Winter, Ingram
Nelson Sweet and some others. The
intention is to repeat the experiment
the coming season with view to still
further simplifying and verifying the
results already obtained.

HARNESS oil

The following recipe is recommended
for making harness oil: Take two
quarts Of fish oil, two pounds Of mutton
tallow, one pint Of castor oil, one-quar-
ter pound Of ivory black, one-half
pound Of beeswax, four ounces of
resin, one ounce of Burgundy pitch.
Put ingredients into an iron kettle,
place over slow fire and boil and stir
for half an hour. Let settle for fifteen
minutes and then pour off all but the
sediment into another vessel Use
cold. After oiling the harness wipe it
off with dry rag. Neatsfoot oil will
answer if fish oil is not Obtainable.

THE IDEAL AND PRACTICAL.

u TIE IDEAL AMI FhAO IOAIs
The question is being raised by some,
and we believe with propriety, whether
the type Of corn that scores the highest
and gets the prizes at the corn shows
is at the same time the most practical
for farmers to grow for feeding pur-
poses. Agricultural colleges should
look this matter up, as it is only when
their work is practical that they have
claim upon state taxpayers for main
tenance and support. In all too many
cases the matter Of size and prettiness
of ear are given SO prominent a place
that not only does such type of corn
ripen with difficulty in northern por-
lions of the corn belt, but in some
cases it does not possess so large a
per cent of corn as with some of the
smaller native varieties.

PACKERS AND COMMISSION MEN.

SAlhETS AND COMMISSION MEN.
A question that very vitality affects
the pocketbook of dairymen and stock
ralsers all over the country has lately
been vigorously debated by the live
stock commission men and packers Of
Chicago and some other market cen
ters OF the West-this as to who shall
stand the loss of cows and heifers con-
demned as a result of the pOstmOrtem
government inspection, which is made
to ascertain the presence of diseased
conditions The packers with some col
or of justice hold that they ought not
to be compelled to pay for carcasses
OF which they can make little use,
While the commission men aver the
contention of the packers is merely a
preteXt by means Of which they hope
to be able to postpone cash payments
on all kinds of live stock until aft
er the postmortem inspection, which
would clearly put the commission men
IN very embarrassing position as re-
CARDS their patrons, who have hereto
fore been paid for their stock immedi-
ately upon delivery. If the difficulty
were righted at its source, diseased ami
mails should never be placed aboard
the cars by the stock raisers, but as
long as shipment on the hoof contin-
ues the problem cannot be solved in
this way The position the packers
have taken, whether they are able to
carry it in its entirety or not, will re-
suit in a Sitting process in the local
shipping yards. In times gone by any
thing that could stand on four feet
and some things that couldn't were put
aboard the cars, shipped to the pack
ing houses and there in many cases
worked up into foodstuff for the other
fellow. But the recently enacted fed
eral pure food law has changed all
this, and the move the packers have
made is simply an attempt to trace
the evil back to it's source.
