Care Of Eggs for Hatchina.

In selecting eggs for Matching use
only those that are of uniform size
and color, with smooth, strong shells.
Abnormal eggs are likely to produce
weak or crippled chicks. The eggs
should be stored in a room where the
temperature ranges from so to 60 de-
grees. 1t has been prevailing idea
that eggs for Matching should be
turned daily. Several men of author
lty claim that this is not necessary,
but the case is not definitely proved.
Eggs kept for a week or more should
be turned at least twice week 1t
can do no harm and may prove bene-
fetal. Never set dirty eggs; If they
are dirty. carefully wipe them with a
damp cloth until all spots are re-
moved.

SIMPLE STYLE FOR HATPIN lvELvET IDEA IN MILLINERY
Utility More Than Ornament Is the
Idea in This Millinery
Accessory.

Nowadays the hatpin is an imDor.
tant millinery accessory. and cleverly
combines beauty with utility In an al
most unfeminine way.
So important is this little ornament
that the only trimming on large
shape will be jeweled disks that are
very satisfying to the woman who aims
at elegant simplicity.
Besides the huge round forms there
are long cylindrical pins studded with
jewels: there are conventional forms
that hint of the orient In their color
ing; there are pins that offer sugges-
tons of home manufacture. for bro
cade, tapestry and linen are the ma
terials used. One little shop in Paris
has shown pins with tops of straw or
raffia, woven TO match the hats with
which these novelties are TO be worn.
In another milliner's, lace flowers
are used to cover the Dresden silk
cushion. These are extremely pretty
with the tulle turbans and large lace
trimmed straws
The Frenchwoman insists upon hat
pin sets that are kept with their re.
spective shapes. and on no occasion
wiz the disks be used to fasten the
wrong hat on her head. II is Just one
more evidence of her attention to the
little details that combine to create a
harmonious whole.

FARM ECONOMY PRINCIPLES
Important Factors That Determine
Success In Western Semi.
Arid Regions.

The principles OF farm economy ap-
ply alike to the dry farm lands and to
farms In the humid region, yet, on ac-
count OF the conditions Of soil,
climate, population, market facilities
and formativeness OF the semi-arid
region, II is not always easy for the
farmer hailing from the east to make
proper application of economic prin-
ciples in the west. from the start,
writes Prof. B. Youngblood in Camp
bells Scientific Farmer.
Unlike the humid regions where
ehe lack of capacity and industry may
be overcome in part by the produc-
uveness of the soil. the dry land farm
er must be Industrious and possess an
ability TO manage well the affairs OF
his farm. He must not only know
how and when to plant and plow, but
he must do these things when they
ought to be done, for certain days lost
often means the loss of the crop.
II seems. then, that the following
are the factors that determine sue
cess in dry land farming:
/. An arabic soil
2 Buying the right sized farm at
the right price. 1t must be at least
large enough to support family.
g. Conservation of rainfall by ap-
propriate methods of tillage.
T. Ample and appropriate farm
equipment for the region or the means
of procuring IT,
8. The means of existence until the
farm begins to yield an income.
8. An appropriate system of farm
Ing: (a) Producing as much of the
living as possible on the farm: (b)
producing live stock or live stock and
a money crop. such as wheat. cotton,
broom corn. in addition.
With so many mistakes being made
In the selection of soils, in the pur-
chasing of land, In equipping the
farms, In cultivation or handling of
soils, In the systems of farming. and
the vast differences in the abilities of
different farmers to manage a farm
and its financial affairs, we are not
surprised If not all who come west
are satisfied with their measure of
success.
We have this condition: The semi
arid portions Of the earth constitute
a large area: thousands of people
have moved into them who want to
know their possibilities and how to
develop them. Some steps have been
made in that direction, but 1t is our
duty to fathom the situation so that
all may know Just where we are at"

Dry FARMING.

The United States government is
not only interested in settling its irri-
gated lands but also in developing all
parts of its territory. and for this rea-
son the various bureaus of the depart
ment of agriculture have been study
ing the soils of the west and also
securing the world to find crops suited
for these regions. Dry farming is
meeting with certain amount of sue
cess in various parts of the country
and the combined effort of all of these
endeavors to make fertile and produc-
tive these lands will result in an era
of unprecedented prosperity for the
entire west.

BABY'S SKIN TORTURE

"When our baby was seven weeks
old he broke out with what we
thought was heat, but which gradually
grew worse. We called In doctor.
He said 1t was eczema and from that
time we doctored six months with
three of the best doctors in Atchison
but he only got worse. His face, head
and hands were solid sore. There
was no end to the suffering for him.
We had to tie his little hands to
keep him from scratching. He never
knew what it was to sleep well from
the time he took the disease until he
was cured. He kept us awake all
hours of the night and his health
wasn't what you would call good. We
tried everything but the right thing.
Finally I got set of the Cuticura
Remedies and I am pleased to say
we did not use all of them until he
was cured. We have waited year
and half to see If 1t would return
but It never has and to-day his skin
is clear and fair as 1t possibly could
be. hope Cuticura may save some
one else's little ones suffering and
also their pocket-books. John Leason.
