Puck Bridesmaids are. due to brides,
recognized need to have about them
something old, something new, some
thing, borrowed, something blue For
where bridesmaids are at all old II
makes them blue to see another girl
married, and thus they can be made to
serve double purpose.
Three times a bridesmaid. never a
bride, is an old saying, but there's
not much to it. Like thrice armed is
he who hath his quarrel just it is
true in theory but not in business. If
a girl means business in other words
it makes very little difference how
many times she has been a bridesmaid
Bridesmaids are not distinct species.
Except that they wear bigger hats,
they are much like other girls.

That American Hen.

According to statistics, which
never lie, the American hen is the
most profitable asset in the farmers
repertoire of live stock, and yet the
most neglected. On the average
farm, If the hen gets any attention
at all it is from the housewife. The
farmer rarely pays any attention to
her unless she wanders too close
to the corn crib about breakfast
time, and then he heaves a brick in
her direction and says words that
do not look well in print. When it
comes to eating the product of Mrs.
Hen, however, the farmer is in the
front row, but never gives thought
as to how much food she supplies
his table during the year and how
much of the furniture and other
general household equipment is OBJ
tanned from the egg money.
Really the poultry crop, includ-
ing eggs, is worth more than any
other crop raised in the country,
and yet there are very few farms
that have suitable houses for their
poultry and very few farmers who
give any time or attention to the
care and development of the flock.

HOW TO KILL THE DANDELIONS.
Method of Getting Rid of the Pesti-
ferrous Lawn Invader.

This is the season of the year
when the owner of lawn finds that
If he properly protects it from the
daidelions he will have no time to
run around in his auto or indulge in
other enjoyable pastimes. After the
yellow pests have taken possession
OF the lawns it is really an uphill
job to reduce them to anything like
reasonable submission. The lawn
owner can spend all of his spare
time in getting rid of the yellow
pests and then there is not much
evidence to show that he has ac-
complished SO very much. Every
yellow bud is capable of developing
into myriads of seeds which will
dow helter SHELTER and thus start
Ing another new and more threaten
ing host into action. An Iowa edi-
tor has written l.. H. Pammel, Phi.
d., botanist, at the state college in
Ames, asking him for advice in get
ting rid of the unpopular dandelion.
Prof. Pammel's reply is as follows.
with reference to the killing of
the dandelions, there can be no ques-
ton but that the iron sulphate in
proper strength solution will de-
stroy the dandelion entirely. The
solution which has been used by us
consists of one hundred pounds of
iron sulphate to one barrel of water.
This completely destroys the dande-
lion, but it will also slightly brown
the grass, but the grass will recover
later. so the effect will not be OBJ
served. 1t might be well to try
somewhat weaker solution, say a
10 70 solution. / am sending you

One Way to Mend Eggs.

Mrs. Lizzie Rarick is the owner of
about seventy little chickens which
Matched out of ITO eggs that she
had set in an incubator. Quite a
remarkable thing happened which IS
rather amusing The ninth day
they were in the incubator. Mrs.
Rarick was cutting a piece of cloth
around one of the eggs when she
accidentally stuck the point Of the
scissors through the she'll. She
Immediately put piece of court
plaster over 1t and put 1t back In
place. The same day she dropped
another one of the eggs and cracked
it and she doctored it in the same
way. When the eggs began to
hatch, to her great surprise. both
of these eggs were among the first
ones to hatch, and the little chicks
are getting along fine.-Osceola
