Excellent Garden Compost.

The best fertilizer have ever tried
for garden crops is a compost made OF
two parts stable manure, one part hen
manure and one part hardwood ashes.
/ usually place the compost heap as
near the spot to be fertilized as pos
sible, so that the work OF distribution
can be done at odd times when other
work Is not pressing, says a writer In
Baltimore American. For cabbage in
our section no fertilizer equals this,
and root crops are equally as good
when the compost is we'll mixed with
the soil. The work of composing can
be commenced at any time, but the
more thoroughly it is mixed the soon

The SONG of the Radiator.

Don't talk to me about the old
songs" said the warm fiat dweller
gayly. There's nothing in the way Of
songs that appeals to me SO forcibly
as the song of the radiator. There's s
something about its dulcet tones that
gets right down into the marrow OF
my bones. The melody of it, the Gre
scendo, the fortissimC, the pianissimo,
the stacatto, the ascending and de-
scending scale, waxing louder, louder
then diminishing until you can hardly
hear it at all. That's the song that
appeals to me-"

me, too" the cold fiat dweller signed

won't. That's what he does-grades

CHANGE THE VIBRATION
IL Makes for Health.

A man tried leaving off meat, pota-
toes, coffee, and ETC., and adopted
breakfast of fruit, Grape-NIts with
cream, some crisp toast and cup OF
Postum.
His health began to improve at once
for the reason that meat eater will
reach q place once in a while where
his system seems to become clogged
and the machinery doesn't WORK
smoothly.
A change Of this kind puts aside food
of low nutritive value and takes up
food and drink of the highest value
already partly digested and capable
of being quickly changed into good,
rich blood and strong tissue.
A most valuable feature of Grape
Nuts is the natural phosphate OF pot
ash grown in the grains from which II
is made. This is the element which
transforms albumen in The body into
the soft gray substance which fills
brain and nerve centers.

TIGHT SKIRT NOT GRACEFUL
Mistake Made In Carrying the FASH
ion of the Moment to Undue
Length.

A grave protest should be made
against the skirt that is narrow at
its best and tied in just fbove the
ankles at it's worst.
1t should be condemned Hnd dis
carded by every woman whS consid-
ers personal comfort and a graceful
appearance. There is an independent
quality of American women that re-
fuses to walk with knees pressed
together and hampered Japanese
manner of taking tiny steps.
After all, there is a great artistic
delight in flowing skirt that follows
in soft, sinuous lines the motions OF
the figures.
In Paris and London women have
accepted the inhibition of easy, grace
| full motion, but it is to be hoped that
our fair ones will in some usual and
clever way attain the best of these
suggestions and at the same time
keep the senseless tyranny at arm S

A modiste claims that three dresses

Remedy for sca,y Legs.

by a mite which burrows under the
scales of the feet and shanks and is
considered to be infectious, but does
not spread rapidly. 1t is noticed most
frequently in old fowls, says the Cul-
tivator The scales can be removed
by soaking the feet and shanks in
warm, soapy water and by rubbing or
brushing them off with q toothbrush
or nailbrush. After the scales have
been removed apply sulphur ointment

The good that birds do an orchard
In winter is we'll worth considering,
saws Illinois Farmer. There are often
quite long periods in winter when all
insects are in their alternating stages,
as we'll as most seeds OF weeds and
grasses, and sealed down under
coating of snow and ice and the BIRDS
that remain with us are put to straits
to find q sufficiency OF food.
1t is at such times that they render

destruction of the more CONSPICUOUS
scale insects, as we'll as Of the eggs
and pupae of larger species which
they search out in crevices OF bark,
around the next seasons blossom buds
and, especially, In the crotches OF the
branches and twigs.
The species most active in this good
work are the various woodpeckers,
notably the small black and white
downy and hairy, the nuthatches and
several species OF the titmouse fami-
ly, as well as the blue jay, and to
some extent the snowbirds and spar
rows.
1t is here that even the outlawed
English sparrow has been seen abso-
lutely cleaning branch after branch OF
peach and plum trees OF the large
hemispherical, reddish terrapin scale
SO prevalent now on stone fruit trees
The cottony maple scale is another
conspicuous pest on which this spar
row, as we'll as several other small
birds, feed persistently when no more
easily obtained food is available, and
in northern climates, where snow anc
ice prevail, this scale seldom appears
in destructive numbers for two con
secutive years, mainly owing to the
good Offices Of these hunger-driveI
birds The scurfy scale, not large, bu

birds are also many that have been
observed feeding upon the larger
scale insects as well as upon aphides
and other gregarious forms, especially
in early spring when they first return

In all nearly 60 different species OF
birds. in the various sections Of the
country, are known to feed habitually
or occasionally upon these small but
exceedingly injurious enemies of fruit
