A Contrast.

Mr.. Dapper is one of that class OF
men who are scrupulously neat In their

fail to leave chaos behind them in the
scene of their preparations. A neigh

and remarked:
"One rarely sees a more well kept
man than your husband. He always
looks as If he had just come out OF a

Care Should Be Taken 70 Prevent Sur
face Pollution.
In a discussion OF the disposal OF
dairy and farm sewage I'm such a way
that the water supply may not be in
jured o. Err Of the Kansas experiment
station draws some general deductions
regarding the construction and care or
wells which are Of much interest.
It must be borne in mind that the
well on a dairy farm and indeed on
any farm or in any dooryard cannot
receive too much care, for 1t supplies
the water for household use, for the
dairy farm, for cheese factories and
for other purposes which are related TO
food supply. Well water Is most com
monty contaminated in one Of two
ways-either by surface water, which
runs directly into the well, or by barn
yard drainage, household slops and
cesspools.
Sewage disposal may be so managed
that it is not q menace TO the water
supply, one Of the most satisfactory
methods being the employment Of a
septic tank, and, as the Kansas expert
ments show, this need not involve any
great trouble or expense.
Discussing well construction, the
Kansas bulletin states that
Nearly all of the bacterial life exists
IN the upper strata Of the soil. Soil
ten or twelve feet below the surface
OF the earth is perfectly sterile unless
it has within 1t a crevlce or opening Sc
that surface sewage can run down
Therefore due care should be taken In
digging and constructing a well so that
direct contamination will be prevented
Water Should Be Filtered.
The well Itself must be so construct
cd that the impurities cannot get into
It from above or from the sides. Watei
should be filtered through ten or twelve
feet of fine soil. To prevent the sur
face pollution a water tight wal
should be built in a well down below
the water level This can be built o
hard burnt brick and cemented ol
the outside. Clay should be pounde'
around this.
Where drilled wells are used the lin
ing Of the well should be an iron tub
driven into the bore, and the outsid
should be flushed with thin cement
The well should be properly covered

NEEDLEWORK NOTES

In knitting It will be found much
easier when casting on stitches If US
ing very large needles, to introduce an
ordinary steel needle in place Of the
large one held in the right hand.
Use the steel needle for knitting the
stitch and pass it over the large needle
This is to be done only when casting
on stitches.
Handkerchiefs are marked in old
English letters Of a very small size.
These tiny letters are often placed
in the center Of a circle done in the
finest of over-and-over embroidery.
For sheer handkerchiefs use a very
fine mercerized cotton.
BY reversing a shirtwaist pattern
and lengthening it at the narrow part

a skirt panel
Feather stitching is always a dainty
finish for a child's dress. but it should
be very evenly done and as small as
possible. No. 3 mercerized cotton is
best for the work.
Marking cotton in that soft. cool
shade known as china, is used a great
deal in the buttonholing and scallop-
ing the edges of turnover collars.
