Care of Gloves and Wells,

Silk and Isle gloves wash readily in
lukewarm suds made of good white
soap. They should be we'll rinsed,
squeezed in a towel and hung up to
dry. a solled chiffon veil or scarf
may be laundered in exactly the same
way as the gloves, taking care not to
wiring or squeeze 1t. The dirt must be
gently patted out. While still wet 1t
must be pinned in its proper shape on
a table or bed, and after it is dry the
edge may be pressed with n warm
iron. If one will carefully darn the
toes and heels of the thin Isle and
silk stockings with fine silk thread
before wearing they will wear much
longer The stitches must be taken
only up and down in parallel rows,
not across.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Ground Feed For Horses.

For horses at hard work for long
hours all the grain should be ground
and mixed with chopped hay, says
American Cultivator. a great deal of
time and energy can thus be saved. If
the horses are required to do hard
work only a few hours each day the
oats need not be ground. Because of
their bulky nature oats are easier mas.
ticated than other grains.
Old horses or others with poor teeth
should always have ground grain. 1t
is almost impossible for them to make
use Of the whole grain. During the
spring months or at any season of the
year when they are shedding teeth
colts should have ground grain in or
der to prevent any unnecessary use of
the Jaws during such period.
1t is argued by some that the cost of
grinding will not make it profitable to
grind feed for horses not at work un-
less they have defective teeth. But
where one is prepared to grind his
grain himself the work can be done at
odd times and the expense of grinding
need hardly enter into the question.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Sewing Hooks and Eyes.

Try this quick way of putting hooks
and eyes on q waist. Sew the eyes on
the left front the desired distance
apart, with the loops out far enough
to make hooking easy; then baste the
right front carefully over the left, lap
ping as much as may be desired. Turn
the waist just as it is wrong side out,
put q hook in every eye and sew 1t
in position.
To mark the place for buttons. pin
the buttonholed edge of the garment
in place, then with a needleful OF
thread begin at one end and take q
single stitch in every buttonhole, car
rying the thread to the opposite end.
Cut the thread halfway between the
buttonholes, lift off the cloth, and
there will be a bit of thread where
each button should be sewed.

Heart Girth and Vitality.

The boys at the Nebraska expert
ment station tried out some steers last
winter to determine the type that
make the best feeders. They took the
measurements of each one in the most
minute particular. The steer that
made the best gain in the feed lot was
the one having the largest heart girth
in proportion to weight. The steer
showing the lightest gain had very
small heart girth. While this is the
result of only one winters work and
cannot be taken as establishing any
positive law, still it looks very much
as If cattle with large lung power,
with a good heart and consequently
perfect digestion are best calculated
to make big gains in the feed lot, and
we thought everybody knew this all
along.-Denver Field and Farm.

Around the Farm.


There is nothing like rotation, thor
ough cultivation and plenty of good
barnyard manure to keep the soil in
good shape.
There is lot of satisfaction in work
ing in good, mellow soil. 1t can be kept
right only by constant, systematic
working.
The poor places In the dooryard
should be attended to Mt once. They
are an eyesore to you and discredit
to your place. Grass seed can be
worked into the ground after 1t is
loosened.
In buying farm machinery always
get the best and most reliable. 1t will
prove cheapest in the end.
The right way to handle manure is
to handle 1t as little as possible. Put
it where you can use 1t at once.
Keep the cultivator shovels bright
and sharp. They will do better work
and the team will do more work.

Fruit Mint Julien.

MAKES HOLES OF ANY SIZE.

toward the handle the circumference
of the holes may be increased to that
Of the rod itself. 1t can thus be made
to pierce any size holes, from small
eyelets to comparatively large circles.
Heretofore, unless a woman had an
assortment of stilettos of various sizes,
and few had such variety, only one
with any degree of accuracy, and neat,
graduated circles were found only in
bought designs.

Feather pulling is a habit said to
come from idleness. When once the
fowls learn the habit they seem to
delight in eating the feathers. The re-
lief suggested is plenty of grit, oyster
shells and some dry lime mortar from
a building, offered freely. A piece Of
fat pork tied to a strong cord and
swung in reach of the fowls seems to
give some relief. The cause of this
habit seems to be the lack of lime in
the system of the fowls. Fowls on the
range seldom acquire it, while those
in confinement too often do. Even
cockerels yarded to be fattened and
those in crates for crate fattening
often acquire the habit-Country Gen

To Eatten BroiIers,

An excellent mixture for fattening
broilers is made as follows: One hun

100 pounds Of finely ground corn, 100
pounds of finely ground oats, with
hulls sifted out, to which mixture is
added thirty pounds of beef scraps
Buttermilk or skimmilk is used for

Some Uses For Lemons.

A teaspoonful Of lemon juice in
small cup of black coffee will drive
away an attack of bilious headache.
A little lemon Juice rubbed on the
face, arms and neck at night will not
only whiten but soften the skin.
A paste made of magnesia and lemon
juice applied to the face and hands
when lying down for fifteen minutes
will bleach the skin beautifully.
Hot lemon juice and sugar or hot
lemonade for q cough has rarely been
known to fail of giving relief.

Value of Cultivation,

Probably no operation on the farm
pays as well on the investment as the
extra tillage requisite to secure ideal
conditions. Clods repel the tiny roots
and vacancies between carry neither
ready moisture nor food. Sometimes,
especially in dry seasons, the differ
ence in yield between a cloddy soil and
one open, mellow, with available food
easy to reach and moisture at will, ap-
proaches 100 per cent-Professor ]. W

Prepotency of the Sire.

About the most reliable basis of cal
culation as to the power of transmits
sion, or, as it is called, prepotency of
the bull, is the dairy character of the
grandmothers and great-grandmothers
on both sides of his pedigree. He is
the stored up results of what lies back
of him.
The quality of his ancestors will
have more effect on his offspring than
the performance of his mother. She
gives to him of what she inherited
more than of what she does. She may
be rich in inherited qualities and yet
for some reason be herself only an
ordinary performer.

Neglected Season.

Neglected Season.
The tuneful poets warble
OF sweet and chilly spring,
AT seasons unresponsive
Their pretty fancies fling.
Let's sing a song of summer,
For really don't you say
1t ought to have a look in
When poets tune their lay?
Perhaps the spring is useful,
And in modest way
1t sort of gets things going
To start the big display,
But were 1t not for summer
To make the work complete.
Pray, where would be the harvest
And all the things to eat?
Yes, summer is a charmer,
Not knocking any one.
Its skies are fair and balmy,
And friendly is it's sun,
Perhaps at times too friendly,
But still you don't suppose
We'd sing about the summer
Were it to freeze our toes.
Then sing the balmy summer,
And while it's charms we scan,
For goodness sake, dear brother,
Start that electric fan,
And while in language classic,
High sounding, but precise,
We chant it's many virtues
Put something fresh on Ice.
