will effect a settlement with the
Turnes Contracting company at their
meeting on Monday at the commits
sioners court, and will see that the
Lake county men, who have money
coming to them will get what Is due
them The Turnes company has sig
nified their desire to meet all their OBJ
legations, but have been hampered In
a great measure by the disagreement
and the attitude assured by the COM

tras, submitted some time ago by the
contractors. However. an agreement
was reached recently by the board and
the contractor and a final settlement
is probable on next Monday.

Hints That Are Valuable.
Unstarched underwear takes up
half the room and packs to better ad-
vantage, coming out with fewer wrin-
kles when the bag is opened. Stiff
collars keep cleaner than soft ones,
and launder better, SO that fewer are
needed. Take half a dozen pairs of
stockings and replenish en- route if
necessary. Silk and Isle thread
gloves can be washed out and kept
more presentable than kid. Boot trees
that are light and easily packed are
to be found in any store, and a patent
leather slipper will always pass mus
ter as an evening shoe. These are
just few of maXims to be learned by

the cavity is filled with moist ce-

opening is a large one and exposed

HPotatomatoeS."

In grating the tomato on the DO
tatO, or the potato on the tomato
or in making any other graft OF
similar herbaceous plants, the simp,
Ter methods are preferred, says the
Country Gentleman. The saddle
graft and the splicegraft are the
ones most commonly used. The
spltcegraft is made by simply cut
ting the sciOns a smooth slanting
cut. The stock is cut in the same
way Ind the two members are tied
together with their faces joined In
order to get the best results. it is
desirable to have the gratis made
of rather tender shoots. such as
have only partially hardened. In
order to get proper union with this
sort Of tissue, it is necessary that
the cut be made with a very sharp
knife, preferably with a razor. The
two parts are then rather tenderly
joined together using very soft cloth
bandages Or moistened raff1a. It is
desirable furthermore to cover the
grated plant with a bell jar or hand
glass of some sort for a few days in
order to prevent too rapid evapora-
ton. If i is left exposed to the
open air, especially if the atmosphere
is rather dry, the scion dries out
and willis SO badly that it cannot re-
cover. The saddle-graft is made by
cutting the stock wedge-shaped,
while the scion is cut with Y
shaped slit so that it will fit down
over the wedge of the stock. The
rest of the process is carried out
exactly as already described for the
spIice-graft.

Raising Chicks in Winter.

The success of raising chicks in
cold weather depends upon the hen,
If they are raised with one, or upon
the management of the incubator,
if that is used. Some hens are more
careful with broods than others. It
is unnatural for a hen to become
broody in the winter, but some OF
them will insist upon sitting even
during the coolest weather. When
the weather is extremely cold the
chicks are able to endure quite a
low degree of temperature without
difficulty if they can run under the
hen every now and then to get
warm. But as some hens are more
active than others and will not stand
still long enough in winter for the
chicks to nestle, it is not always to
be depended upon that the chicks
will get warm when they desire.
When placing eggs under a hen in
the winter it is best to take into
consideration when the eggs will
hatch and watch them for the least
change in the weather. The best
mothers are the Brahmas and Coon
ms, as they are naturally indolent
and prefer to remain quiet. They
sometimes tread upon the chicks and
thereby quickly thin the brood to a
minimum number, but clumsiness is
not always the rule and they en-
deavor to do their best for the chicks
in their care. Light hens are usu-
ally too restless to be winter moth
ers. 1t is best, whatever mothers
are used, to confne all sitting hens
in coOps or boxes so that they will
not race around, for the cold winds
are fatal to young chickens as well
as dampness. 1t is sometimes very
profitable to raise chicks in cold
weather, but choose the hens with
care and see that they look out for
their young.
