Eeedlna plas skim MIX.

The use OF the by-products OF the
dairy and creamery (sklm milk, butter
milk and whey) is one of the most in
teresting subjects OF study in pork pro-
ductlon. The value Of milk Is known
on every farm, although 1t may not be
fully appreciated, and anyone who has
fed pigs knows the keen appetite these
animals have for milk and its products.
In the neighborhood OF many large
iairies pork production has become Il
very prominent and lucrative branch Of
the dairy industry.

The Quality Of Sheep.

A correspondent in Field and Farm
says: I'VE have always stood for the
theory that II is better to make two
lambs grow as much mutton and wool
as three grew before and thus have less
mouths to feed and fewer feet for
tramping out the forage plants on the
range. The way to accomplish this is
to buy pure-bred stock and constantly
raise the standard Of the foeks. Two
for three in this sense is better than
.wo for one"

GAY FASHIONS OF THe PAST.
Gorgeous Raiment Worn by Men a
Few Centuries Ago.

rev centuries Ago.
Compared with the gay apparel worn
by the dandies OF the past ages the
youths OF our time in the gayest or
gay raiment make but poor show.
The Bishop of Ely in the fourteenth
century had a change OF raiment TOR
every day in the year. The Earl or
Northumberland boasted no less than
sixty cloth-of-gold suits at this time.
Much later, in Queen Mary's time.
the wardrobe of a Bishop must have
been the envy of Solomon for the va
riety and costliness OF it's contents,
and even a simple village priest wore
"a yestment OF crimson satin, a vest
ment OF crimson velvet, a stole and
fanon set with pearls, gown spaced
with taifetas," etc.
In the time of Chaucer the men
wore clothes as many colored as Jo-
seph's coat, so that says the Ameri-
can Tailor and Cutter. while one leg
would be blaze of crimson the other
would be tricked out in green, blue
or yellow, without any regard for har-
mony or contrast. Even as late as
the middle OF the eighteenth century
a dandy would dress himself in vivid
gren coat, waistcoat of scarlet, yell
low breeches and blue stockings.
And the gentleman of few years
later wore, among other yagsrles, a
coat of light green. with sleeves too
small for the arms and buttons too
big for the sleeves; pair of fine Man
chester breeches without money in
their pockets, clocked silk stockings.
a club Of hair behind larger than the
head which carried it, hat not larg-
er than sixpence on block not
worth farthing.
Another quaint chronicler at one
fashionable epoch of our ancestors tells
lis they would wear clothes so tight
to ye skin that it might be we'll con-
ceived they wore no clothes at ALL"
and at another time they would wear
them 80 volumnous that a single
suit might we'll have afforded raiment
for whole familie, and SO stuffed out
with feathers that Of a variety their
wearers resembled nothing 50 much
as walking sacks"
A fad which had great vogue was
to combine on one person the dress
Of all the countries of Europe. AL
another time shoes with square toes
were the rage, and a royal proclama-
t!on was issued limiting the width TO
six inches. These were succeeded by
shoes with the finest points. In the
time OF Henry III shoes with points
two feet long were worn by the fash
ionables, and in the reign of Henry
Nv these points had grown to such
length that in order to be able to
walk at all It was necessary TO attach
the tips TO the knees by chains, which
were OF gold or silver. The tops OF the
shoes were carved with all kinds or
curious designs and patterns.
1t was common thing in the early
part of the eighteenth century for
nan of fashion to spend several hours
oaily in the hands OF his valet Among
the many operations which took up
this time was "the starching OF the
beard and the proper perfuming or
the garments, the painting of the face
end amounting oils, tinctures, essences
and pomatums. 1t Is even said that
some of the dandies of that day bath
ed In milk and wine for the e,u-
venation OF their complexions and or
their energies"
