Turbans Of fur. of marabou. OF tuiie'
OF beaver, Of velvet, OF any and every
material suitable for the purpose are
being worn by the smart Parisians
and aIe gradually gaining favor here;
but 1t Is the turban of fur that shows
the most piQuaint developments.
There is bound to be certain basic
similarity In the models. for fur. o.

not easily draped and manipulated
and since the modish turban must be
broad and posed low on the head
there 10 little room for vaSaries OF
line. but even in line there are varia.
tons and in detail there II world
of difference.
The most popular shape in Paris Ia
the one large and low. extending far
out over the boufiant side hair and
resting low on the forehead. yet with.
held from total eclipse Of the face BY
a soft supporting invisible bandesu.
The soft brim rolls up closely against
the big crowd and some sort Of rakish
feather ornament sweeps back from
the left front or stands up in brush
fashion.
There are some delightful turbans
In eImine. which may be trimmed
with full white egret; and there are
also many models in all white ermine
or fox. Two long. handsome quills
of ostrich. a graceful osprey. Tyre bird
plumage, or made quills Of stunning
color may trim such turbans or per
haps there is no feather but instead
q cluster Of fruit or flowers or some
handsome barbaric ornament Of gold
tissue. ~ sf1r
Combinations of contrasting furs or
Of velvet and fur are sometimes seen
in this model. the latter working out
effectively en- suite with a costume
echoing the color Of the velvet.
Other low, round turbans have no
seiublance of brim. being bowl shaped
or mushroom shaped, but softened in
line by the fuffinese Of the fur. All
that has been said of the trimming
bestowed upon the roll-brim turbans
is applicable here also, and these
shapes are at their best in such long
hatred fur as fox. lynx. marten. etc.
A cluster OF gardenias with their
green foliage is often their only trim
ming, and roses Of gold tissue are
much used upon the darker furs, two
or three af them being tucked into
the fur at the left side. One effective
French turban In ermine was trimmed
in glowing bunch Of velvet geran-
iums shading from brilliant red to
pink, and on another white turban
vas posed one huge purple orchid.

The COW that can't feed is sure to
test the fence.
The successful dairyman is a stu
dent of conditions.
Plenty Of sunlight in the COW stable
tends for healthy animals.
1t will take lot of feed to get them
back into paying condition If they are
allowed to get thin.
Do not let the summer mixers run
down in condition. and go into winter
quarters thin in flesh.
Give the cows a chance to get un-
der the shed every night now. II too
cold, keep them in the stable.
The best COWS are never cheap. and
are seldom for sale: SO it pays to give
the heifer calves the best OF care.
Never send a boy or dog to bring
the COWS from the pasture unless you
are very well acquainted with your
dog.
A quart of milk by actual chemical
analysis. is said to possess as much
nutritive value as a pound Of beef

practically all the fertilizing constitu,
ents of the feed used may be turned

Keep the bearings clean, and we'll

your separator will run easier. do bet.
ter work and last longer.
The dry COW should have little
hran or oil meal the same as the milk
er. She should always be in good
condition at calving time.
Some people believe that the feed
governs the fat content. but COW in
normal condition will give the same
amount of fat at all times.
BY careful selection the quality Of
even common dairy cows may be
greatly improved and their average
flow of milk materially increased.

Price Of Dairy Cows.

The great demand for dairy prod
ucts has caused the price of good
dairy cows to be very high. Reports
from associations Of dairymen show
that 1t is impossible to buy first class
dairy cows at even $50 head. With
such demand for cows in old dairy
districts. there will be few good cows
moved into new dairy territory. So.
the only way new districts can be sup
piled must be by breeding up the com.
mon stock by the use of good dairy
bred bulls.

Milk Pail Holder.
GOOD POINTS OF DAIRY cow
Animal Should Possess Rather Thin,
PIiabis Elastic skin-Udder
: 10 Important Feature.

A good dairy COW possesses rather
thin, pliable. elastic skin. A coarse.
harsh handling skin is poor indica-
tion. When cows possess these quail
ties of skin they are rarely good pro-
ducers.
Much attention should be given the
udder OF the dairy cow-a large udder
does not indicate that 1t is good one.
They are often very heshy; a good
udder should be elastic and pliable.
and shows many folds when MIXED
out. The teats should be placed
Iequal distances apart and which is
generally always the case II the udder
is symetrical and we'll proportioned.
Large milk veins are good Indications,
the more winding and branching they
are the better the indication. The
veins do not carry milk. as many
think. but carry the blood from the
udder to the body and the more
blood that passes through the udder
the more milk there is produced be-
cause the milk Is produced from the
blood.
