COULD NOT WEAR THE HAT.
French Actress Victim OF London Res.
taurant Etiquette.

Some Of the French ladies do not
understand at all the prohibition in
London on what they consider dinner
dress. There is one little French
actress now playing in London who, AS
one Of her first experiences In tho
British capital, was taken out to sup
per, and, to do honor to the occasion,
put on her largest and most gorgeous
hat. Her escort looked at It doubt
fully. but hoped for the best. She
was stopped AT the sacred portals Of a
restaurant. and was asked TO remove
her hat.
What this means to lady only
those can tell who have been to NATL
nees and have seen the display OF
temper when a whole row Of ladies' In
the stalls have been told that the PEG.
pie behind can not see the stage The
little actress made gallant attempt
to be allowed to retain her headgear.
She announced to the polite gentle
man at the door that she was a Mo
hammedan. and offered to take off her
shoes II only she were allowed to re-
tain her hat. The mighty hat. how
ever. had to be removed.

sILAGE FOR THE DRY COW.
Il viii Prove Profitable by Keeping
Animal in Condition Until Fresh.

Any farmer will admit that the COW
in milk will be benefited by silarc,
but many do not recognize its impor.
lance for the dry COW, says a writer
In Kimballs Dairy Farmer II you
still cling TO the old.fashioned method
OF da.ryinG which finds the cows dry
at Christmas time but fresh In March
or April, you need silage almost as
much as II you were milking the cows
when the profits are greatest
The COW that is going to give good
yield throughout the whole period of
lactatlon must begin that period in
good condition The best way to get
her in that condition is to feed her 81
lage during the winter months. So you
see you need n silo just as much
when your cows are dry In the winter
as you do when they are being MIXED
In the winter.
You need sllo, anyway, concludes
this writer, and you are standing IN
your own light as long as you do not
build one.

WATERING THE COW.

Also, II the weather was OF an eX
