New Mediums in Decoration.

chat cement and concrete are des-
tined to supplant to a large extent
stone. terra Gotta, marble and other
materials now used for decorative pur-
poses is the opinion expressed by an
editorial writer In Cement Age. Econ
omy has been the chief factor in the
development of ornamental work in
concrete. After a mold is made the
cost of production becomes the veriest
trile as compared with stone or mar
BILE. AS an artistic medium concrete is
quite as good as stone or terra Gotta.
Considering its greater economy It
may be employed in many cases where
the cost OF cut stone you'd be prohib-
tive and terra Gotta unsuitable. IT'S use
embraces. not only s%tatuary. garden
furniture, fountains and urns. hut orna-
mental walls. bridges and ba~lustrades.
In fact. an entire estate, SO far as build
ings and structural features are con.
cerned. might well be OF concrete. from
the dwelling to the least of objects in
tended to ornamen O garden or lawn.
concerning artistic designs in concrete,
there Is no limit to the resources of the
worker. If he is of the faith that re-
jects all that is modern and original,
and admires only the masterpieces OF
the old world. the plaster mold will FUR
ntSh him with an almost exact repro
duction OF designs wrought by hand.
The most intricate and elaborate pat
terms. which may have Involved months
or years of toll on the part Of their
creator. may be duplicated in concrete
In a few days. When we consider the
extreme durability Of concrete In CON
nection with h low cost of production.
one IS impressed with the great future
awaiting 1t in the domain Of decorative

TAKING %STENOCRAPH|C
NOTES IN THE BRAIN
How the Study of stenography
and Typewriting Follows the
Beginner Continually.

when I first began" said a young
woman who Is learning typewriting
and stenography, "a s~tenosaapher
friend of mine told me that after a
%nographic notes in my head. and this
has already come quite true, though
j lind tina l am more likely to take
C talk down on a mental type
writer-I suppose because, as far as
I've got, I am more advanced in type
writing thar i am in s~tenography.
when you learn typewriting. you
know, they teach you on a typewriter
with tho keys all blanks; no letters
on them. o have hung up i'll front
of you q card on which are printed
all the letters n signs Of the key
the keys of the machine from the
card. They do this SO that you will
learn the keys by their positions and
so be able to play on tho machine
without looking at 1t.
when you have learned the posi-
ton of all the keys in this manner
they dictate to o such simple words
as Cast, cat, to be written on the
typewriter without looking at the card:
and when you find yourself able to
do this % think you have come to
be quite q typewriter.
But to get that far you have to
do a good deal Of hard work, and your
work is likely to follow You even ii
your sleep. Why, I've dreamed many
a time Of picking out letters and lines
typewriter began following mo in my
waking moments, too. as 1T does now:
except that now, being somewhat more
advanced as / am, 1t follows me in
a somewhat different way.
Now when somebody talks to me
or l hear somebody talking, l find my
self taking it down on q typewriter
in my brain as l might on q real type-
writer from dictation. OF course. I
can't begin to write as fast as any
body can talk, but 1 can do better than
l did at first, and l pound away on
that mental typewriter and keep UP as
we'll as l can. And when | find myself
far behind, why 1 stop right there and
make q fresh start On the talk from
that moment.
Whether this mental practice on the
typewriter does any good or not, I
don't know; perhaps it would be bet
ter for me to forget the machine il I
could when I am not actually at work
on 1T, studying; but anyhow the type
Writer pursues me, and 50 when I hear
people talking l pound away on that
mental machine in my brain.
And in the same l take, as
my friend had told me I would, ste
%nographic notes in my brain. 1 do not
yet do this to the extent that 1 type
write there, because the typewriter
got Installed in my head first; but I
now find myself taking mental steno-
graphic notes Of things l hear people
say, being particularly caught by the
words I hear spoken for which I have
learned the contractions, and soon 1
suppose as I become more advanced
in stenography 1 shall begin taking
mental stenographic notes right along.
Hard work, this learning TO be a
typewriter and stenographer. but
there's fun in it, too: though / shall

From the Chicago Live Stock World.
There are certain kinds of live stock
that are undesirable for market purposes,
but farmers don't want them and they
are therefore sent to market. hin, ema-
ctated. old hatrack cows come under this
classification. Packers are not anxious to
get them even at very low prices, and, in
fact, would rather not lave them at all
and buy them at about what the hide and
bones are worth. Lots of cattle Of he
undesirable class are condemned and
tanked, because they are not considered fit
for food. Inspection is more rigid than
it ever has been and anything that is The
least suspicious is tagged.
At the Omaha convention a resolution
was passed to the effect that shippers be
advised to hold back all pregnant ami
mails. Female stock in this condition are
often condemned and always bought at
such a discount that the farmer suffers a
distinct loss. Sow are locked 40 pounds
and COWS n heifers are bought enough
lower to moro than make up for the loss
that packers would otherwise have to

FALL FEEDING Of ALFALFA.

experience in fall feeding of alfalfa in
Wallace's Farmer. He says:

half a stand to begin with but it made lots
of hay. I lost one crop. 1 AVE in recent
years secured two good stands by SOW

times during the summer. Last harvest
I had q good crop of soft wheat. Before
the wheat was taken off the field I set
over the shocks and plowed the stubble
six inches deep, narrowing it every night.
We plowed in all 10 acres and narrowed it
Is different times, then we sowed our al
falfa broadcast at the rate of between Is
and 20 pounds of rather light seed. In five
weeks the tallest plants were five inches
In height. I cut this crop for hay three
weeks ago and there was not a weed in it,
and it made between a ton and a ton and

good service he mule will remain. At
present good work mules bring extremely
high prices. Good animals of 16 hands or
more high fetch from $500 to $500, which
is certainly a good thing for the man
who raises mules. Throughout all the
southern states the mule is in use on the
farm and in the towns and cities. In the
building of the Panama canal thousands
OF mules will be needed, SO that for a long
time to come a good market is assured.
hundreds OF thousands Of head were ship
ped out during the Boer war and the
shortage then created has never been
made up. There is always a demand for
the mule on the sugar plantations of Cuba
and the United States is looked to for the
supply. Mules can be raised by all farm
ers as well as any other stock, and at a
good profit. In giving advice as to why
Montana should raise mules the Live

sLoP EEEnING

From the South Dakota Farmer.
This somewhat ~threadbare topic makes
every swine convention. 1t always pre-
cipitates u warm discussion and airs an.
tagoniStfc views.
AS a rule the old timers champion the
slop bucket, while more and more we find
that younger men are satisfied with the
results obtained from feeding a dry mix
ture to growing pigs. 1t is claimed that
by feeding dry you will do away with the
pot-bellied appearance of the growing pig.
and of course it materially cuts down the
labor item.
The fact that good results are obtained
by either method when plenty of common
sense is used in the feeding simply jndi-
Gates that the pigs digestive system ia
adaptable to a variety of conditions. We
do not take our stand in favor of or
against either method, but in practice
find that the best results are obtained bv
feeding both slop and dry feed. Take a
bunch of pigs three or four months old
that are running on grass, and If Won
want to bring them to a good weight at
an early age you will find 1t to Your nd
vantage to use dry feed and slop. wheth-
er it is best or not we cannot saw. b,1t
we have always believed in giving the
growing pig just about all the thick sion
that he cared to take early in the morn
ing. When we say thick Stop we mean
slop that will pour out of a pail. but a
little reluctantly. About as thick as heavy
molasses late In the fall. After this meal
pigs generally lie around for two or three
hours and they are then ready to spend
the balance of the day in the pasture
They come up at night looking full. but
there is still room for more, a fact that
may be attested readily when they hear
the rattle of the pail or the ding of the
scoop shovel. This is a time when we
think dry feed is desirable and nothing Is
better at such a time than dry corn. Ac-
cording to this plan the pigs therefore get
one meal of slop and one meal. of dry
feed. and if they are healthy they ought
to grow to the constant delight of the
owner.

IMPORTANCE OF THE CALF CROP
From the Nebraska Twentieth Century

EarI1er.
should be recognized by every interest
associated with beef production. 1t is
of first Importance to the owner of the
breeding herd that the calf crop be
large, and hat the quality be good.
In numbers and quality depend the ex-
tent of profit In the business.
The present indications show that the
calf crop of this season is much bet
ter than the average, in point Of calves
saved from those produced. h Is
due to the much better condition of
the breeding cows at the calving per-
iod. The season Of calVing is the most
critical and hazardous period in the
conduct of the business. If the COW is
carefully looked after at this time and
has been provided with plenty of hay
and feed through the winter to keep
her in strong, vigorous condition, hen
there need be but little risk in secur-
ing satisfactory results. The careless
methods under which the greater por-
ton of he cow herds of the country
are managed are not conducive to the
best results.
