Lavender Scent.

Z Do you know that few drops Of
oil of lavender in a silver bowl or or
namental dish of some kind, half filled
with very hot water and set in the
dining room just before dinner is
served, gives a delightful and intangi-
BILE freshness to the atmosphere? Host:
,esses may use this in the parlors and
dressing rooms, when arranging the
house for entertaining. The sugges-
ton is especially advantageous to
those occupying small apartments
which are sometimes "stuffy." The

Farm Notes.

Gull, Gull, Gull. The best are none
too good for the breeding pen.
10 not let pigs get stunted. 1t Is
uphill work to make much of one
that does.
The more pigs sucked by SOW
with her first litter, the more will
her milk-producing habit for all time
develop.
No sire and no dam, no matter how
great its reputation or how good its
pedigree, will produce good pigs ex-
clusively. Selection and breeding up
must be done as often as litter is
dropped.
When hogs cannot be on pasture,
very good results can be got from
the use of well-cured hay made from
any of the clovers, alfalfa or pea.
vines. Hogs will eat large quantities
of it and 1t helps to balance their
rations.
Some claim that sow that farrows
twice year will develop more high
ly the milk-giving habit, than If only
one litter is dropped year. The prin.
ciple that is supposed to underlie this
claim is that from much use the
udder develops better. The exper.
ience of successful hog-raisers is de-
sired on this point.
If it becomes necessary to give
some of the pigs Of one SOW to an.
other, especially if they are more than
two or three days old, brush all the
pigs over lightly with cloth that has
been merely dampened with coal oil.
Sows distinguish between their own
pigs and others largely by smelling
them, and the treatment recommend
ed will make them all smell alike.
There are two advantages in TAX.
ing some Of the pigs from a sow that
has large number to give to one
that has too few: (1j BY having some
of her pigs taken from her, the sow
that has too many will nourish better
what remain. (2) The SOW that or.
iginally has some given to her, will
have more milk-giving teats developed
for future litters.-From "Pig Points"
in the Progressive Farmer.

The Coffee Habit.

Don't become a slave to the coffee
habit. Coffee is a stimulant. To be

In better health without it, your nerves

tinued. Coffee is a very frequent cause
of bilousness and various other diges'
tive disorders.-Home Chat.

Ralslnu Geese on Farms.

Young geese. are easily cared for,
and cause little trouble or expense to
raise after the first six weeks, pro-
vided they have access to good goose
pasturage. They are really grazing
birds. and will forage for themselves
on the right kind Of land. Not only
do they get most of their own living,
but tend to improve the quality of the
land.
No great expense is required for
building. A low house four feet high
answers for shelter. The floor should
be covered with plenty Of litter, and
no special attention to warmth Is re-
quired. During the pasture season
geese should be allowed free range
in their pasture, returning at night
for shelter. If pasturage is limited 1t
would pay to grow green crops, such
as oats, to be fed of by the geese.
A pond or stream is not necessary,
but it is desirable to have enough
water for them to swim in, and they
will find a great deal Of natural food
along the banks Of small, sluggish
streams or on overfowed land.
During the laying season, early In
the spring; the eggs should be re-
moved from the nest so that the goose
will lay as many eggs as possible,
usually from thirty to forty. The sur
plus eggs may be placed under hens,
three or four eggs to hen, choosing
large sized birds. The period OF
Matching is thirty days. The eggs set
under hens are apt to lack moisture
and should be sprinkled occasionally
to prevent the inner skin from being
tough and hindering the Matching OF
the gosling.
The young goslings will almost
raise themselves, being hardy and
strong and growing very fast. They
soon become able to look after them
selves. Unlike chickens, they need
very little ,brooding, and at the end
of week or ten days may be kept in
good sized focks of twenty or twenty
five. During the first ten days or so
they should be confined in a low,
movable run to prevent their wander
ing away and getting lost. This run
should be in q shady place, and con-
nected with a Sheltered coop.
These youngsters are fed very much
like young chickens, plenty of good
fresh skim-milk being especially de-
sirable to make rapid growth. After
the first ten days the appetite OF
growing goslins becomes very vigor.
Gus, and cheapness should be sought
in the food ration. Besides the grass
pasturage, which will furnish a large
part Of the food, it is possible to work
off various cheap by-products, such as
slightly damaged grains, which may
be had at seventy-five cents to 81 per
hundred at the grain. stores making q
speciality of such lines.
The goslings may be either grown
quickly to market as green geese or
kept through the season for the
Christmas trade, both plans being
followed by those farmers of the east
ern states.-American Cultivator.

DEMAND FOR EMPLOYMENT.

The demand for employment by
educated women is greater proper
tionately in England than in any 9th.
er country. Nowhere in the world Is
the dilemma Of a woman accustomed
TO luxury and suddenly thrown on
her own resources so distressing as
in England. This problem was dis
cussed recently at great confer
ence in London, where representative
women Of England, Ireland and Scot
land met to decide on the best means
to help educated women to earn
living wage.
