DESIGNS In LINENS
CONSIDER UTILITY AS WELL AS
DAiNTINESS.
Very Fine Bureau and Sideboard Cow
eTs Entail Heavy Laundry Bills
Good Ones That Can Be
Made at Home.

, Every housekeeper appreciates the
difficulty of keeping the covers of
bureaus and sideboards spotless. The
woman who has enough fresh covers
to do away with hasty laundering is
yet to be found
AS frequent changes are necessary.
the average housewife should sacrifice
her love of dafntiness to utility. Sheer
linen scarfs inset with lace and hand
embroidery are lovely, but distinct
luxuries in this day of SCOT and big
laundry bills.
Have them by all means if you can
AFFORD extra sets for special occasions;
II not, choose covers that are service
able as we'll as good looking.
Among the best for general utility
are the plain scarfs of heavy linen or
fine pique that can be made at home
for nothing but the cost of the ma
terials. White linen is probably the
most used, the pique is preferable, as
it wrinkles less quickly.
The simplest, most effective. and at
present, the smartest of these heavy
covers are those in pique, embroidered
on the edges with a heavy, graceful
scallop and with no other trimming
but large monogram directly in the
center of the front, about two inches
in from the scallop
Pad the scallop heavily with darning
cotton, using chain stitch, and but
tonhole closely to form a strong edge.
The monogram, if one cannot draw
it in for herself, can usually be de.
signed for about fifty cents. The size
for the bureau scarf is useful for
towels, pillow cases and can even be
used on the largest napkins; as the
one monogram can easily be trans,
ferred with impression paper, the
initial cost is worth while.
At the same time, it is we'll to have
two smaller monograms made to
match, one for the pincushion top and
smaller napkins and the smallest to
be used on handkerchiefs and lingerie
1t is quite the thing just now to have
distinctive marking and use it on

INTOLERABLE
Fearful Eczema All Over Baby's Face
Professional Treatment Failed.
A Perfect Cure by cuticura.

when my little girl was six months
old l noticed small red spots on her
right cheek. They grew so large that
l sent for the doctor but, instead of
helping the eruption, his ointment
seemed to make it worse Then
went to second doctor who said it
was eczema. He also gave me an ONT
ment which did not help either. The
disease spread all over the face and
the eyes began to swell. The itching
grew intolerable and it was terrible
sight to see. l consulted doctors for
months, but they were unable to cure
the baby. l paid out from $40 to $50
without relief. One evening l began
to use the Cuticura Remedies. The
next morning the baby's face was all
white instead of red I continued until
the eczema entirely disappeared Mrs.

1t differs from coat, in that it has

WASHING a Plume.

You don't need to be aghast at the
idea of washing a plume.
The thing is, in fact, almost as sim
pie as laundering a muslin dress.
The advice given by one woman is
as follows: Lay the plume in a suds
made Of good white soap and cold
water and let it stand for two or three
hours. Then put into hot water, where
it should remain about twenty min
utes. Then, with a piece of soft cloth
or silk dipped in soap suds, remove
any dirt which may remain. Lay it on
a clean towel and touch with piece
of cloth rolled up to restore the curl
When almost dry shake until fluffy
place i'll tissue paper and put it in the
warming oven Of the stove to dry
thoroughly. If necessary use the dull
side of an ivory paper cutter in re-
storing the curl.

stringy, undoubtedly would show bet
ter results than those given above,
but when compared with alfalfa and
corn the pea hay is poor ration.
By comparing Lots and s we find
that Scotch barley and bald barley are
practically equal in value when fed
with native hay and oil meal. A study
of Lot 8 shows that spelt is not near
ly equal to either bald or Scotch bar
ley when fed with native hay and oil
meal, giving a gain of only 1873 pounds
in IA weeks, or less than a pound a
week per head.
The peas in the field gave a gain
of 1873 pounds per head in IA weeks;
95 of an acre was required for the
production of 100 pounds gain. An
acre of the peas supported six lambs
for IA weeks.

The lambs on native hay ate less
lay than those fed alfalfa, and the
ambs fed pea hay ate only 200 pounds
# hay per head, which was less than
he amount Of hay and grain eaten by
my other lot.
Lots l and constituted a second
rial of native hay, oats, and oil meal,
N comparison with alfalfa hay and
corn. In experiments conducted the
previous winter with small lots Of
ambs upon various grain rations and
native hay, the ration made up of ma
i've hay, oats and oil meal proved to
be the best of those tried, the lambs
making a gain of ia pounds per head
n IA weeks, against 2S.6 pounds made
~ the lot on alfalfa hay and corn. The
present experiment with 40 lambs III
zach lot shows an average gain OF
}0.3 pounds in IA weeks by the lambs
m native hay, oats, and oil meal, and
i4.3 pounds by the lambs on alfalfa
'ay and corn.
The amount of feed required was
;07 pounds of native hay, $50 pounds
If oats, and % pounds of oil meal for
90 pounds of gain. In the previous
experiment. STA pounds of hay, sol
bounds of oats, and Sc pounds of oil
neal were required for 100 pounds
:ain.
The results of these two expert
nents indicate that the native hay,
ats. and oil meal ration will produce
omewhat less than two-thirds the gain
reduced by alfalfa hay and corn in
he same length of time, and also re-
1uires considerably more feed to pro-
luce 100 pounds gain.
Wild sweet clover is common along
irrigation bitches and in waste spots,
md since it withstands alkali we'll
md gives a heavy tonnage of hay, it
should prove a desirable hay crop in
MANY sections. StOckmen commonly
believe that sweet clover is useless
as a forage plant, but cattle and sheep
will eat the growing plant it it is
not too large and coarse, and the eX-
neriment here reported shows that
lambs eat the hay readily and make
good gains from it.
Comparing Lots and 5, we find
that the sweet clover lambs made an
average gain of 30.7 pounds in IA
weeks, while the alfalfa lambs made
34.4 pounds gain. The former ate
one-sixth more hay, somewhat more
corn, and a small amount Of oil meal.
The larger consumption of sweet clio
yer hay was due to the fact that it
was cut late and was very coarse and
stemmy. The lambs liked it, however,
and showed a steady appetite for it.
There was not the slightest difficulty
in getting them to eat it at the start.
The lambs eating pea hay made the
low gain of 1863 pounds per head in
IA weeks. 1t required 1,472 pounds OF
the hay to produce 100 pounds gain
in live weight. This poor showing for
pea hay is borne out by the results
gotten with Lot 10, which contained
a very different class of lambs and
was not carried on in comparison with
Lot 6, but which shows still poorer
gain of only 5.S pounds per head in
Ia weeks.
