chute, but it is longer, the distance be-
tween the posts being five instead of
four feet. The floor here should also
be covered with galvanized sheeting
and the cleats nailed so as to allow
the dripping from the wet animals to
run back into the tank. Unless this is
done the supply of solution in the tank
will soon all be lost, and the dipping
made unnecessarily much more ex-
pensive, The cleats, instead of rum
ming directly across, are short pieces
nailed at angles, so that their inner
ends are lower than the outer ends,
and do not meet so as to let the drip
pings Gun down the center When
sheep are dipped 1t may become nee
essary to retain them in the dripping
chute for a time, as those with
long wool will carry even a gallon or
two of the dip in their fleeces, which
takes time to drain out.
The dipping tank should be at least
four feet deep at the end into which
the animals are plunged to admit of
their being entirely submerged, and
should be about fifteen feet long, so
that sufficient time is required by the
animal to pass through for them to
receive a thorough wetting from the
solution, otherwise it will be neces-
sary to hold them back for time un-
til this is accomplished. The deep part
of the tank need not be longer than
five feet, the rest of the tank becom-
ing gradually shallower up to the
dripping chute and the bottom having
cleats or grooves across to assist the
animals in wading along At the top
the tank should be 18 inches wide, but
at the bottom width only sufficient
for the animals feet is necessary.
This will properly be about one foot.
The material of which the dipping
tank is made may be either wood, gal
vanized sheeting or concrete Con-
crete will prove the most lasting, and
can easily enough be nodded by the
owner.

In March | drove ten miles TO a big
sale in another part of the county
and on the way counted five mowers,
one new reaper, and six plows stand
ing in the fields or alongside barns
without shelter. In one barnyard
which confined about twenty Holstein
cows a good reaper stood at one side
of the barn. Part OF il was under the
caves from which had dripped rain
and snow and formed an ice ridge six
inches thick. A big Plymouth Rock
rooster stood proudly on one of the
blades of the machine and there was
evidence that this was the favorite
roosting place OF the flock.
In one field a breaking plow had
been left standing at the end OF a
furrow In corner OF the field and
the snow covered the beam. One han.

IN HE happy possessor of a touring
car, or the happier occupant of
one, who regularly takes the air
in someone's else touring car, presents
herself these days in a bonnet and
protecting coat which fastens into
|'coat-dress." This garment Is of pom
gee or linen, very practical, dainty and
a protection against the dust from
collar to hem. 1t is shaped in such
a variety of ways that one may choose
from among the pattern books the
most becoming style. The simplest
lines remain the best and the coat
dress should be plain. Brilliantine,
of the washable variety, is another
choice in fabrics, where the wearer
has reason to wish to get something
other than pongee or linen.
The bonnet is made of Madagascar
cloth on supporting veil frame and
does not crush the hair. The crown
is made of an oblong piece folded in
and the bonnet is finished about the
face with shirred taffeta silk. Ties of
the taffeta, made from piece-silk, are
fringed out at the ends and hemmed
at the sides. The frames which sup
port these bonnets hardly deserve the
name, for there is so little to them
The cloth is a wiry fabric which
needs little help to retain it in place
But the bonnet is designed to be cool
and the wire supports are made to
that end. 1t must not set too close to
the head. These pretty head pieces
look very simple and they areas
simple as sunbonnet-which is not
so easy to make successfully, as it's
appearance might indicate. Wash
silk or suede-lisle gloves enable the
autoist to be always daintily gloved;

gloves are always on call, for they may
be washed and dried over night.

to appear at once charming and

SEA sERPENT-B. F. q. F.. City, Is there
any such thing as the sea serpent not
No sea serpent has even been dis
covered, but it is possible and even
probable that the stories arose from
encountering in the South American
seas the laminarioe, species of
water plant known as the algae. This
plant and the marcroystis of the Pa
cific ocean varies in length from 100
to 1900 feet and in thickness from the
size of a mans thumb to that of a
mans thigh. 1t has been reported
that these have stopped the course of
vessels and that a crew has had to go
out in small boats and with axes cut
away the weed to allow free passage
for the ship. That is about all that
there is to the sea serpent"
