Clean Barn for MIX Cow.

The stable in which the COW lives,
and particularly that In which the
milking is done, should be kept in as
clean condition as possible. The
habit of removing the cows to sep
arate room is one which is undoubt-
edly very useful in reducing the
chance Of bacterial contamination. It
is desirable that In the place where
all manure and barnyard refuse is
placed should be removed as far as
may be from the milking stall, and
no stagnant water should be allowed
near the barn. Manure is not only
a source of bacteria, but 1t is a great
breeding place for flies. which are al
so great nuisance; one fly falling
into the milk pail has been known to
be capable of introducing 100000 bac-
terra in milk

Care of Milker and Utensils.

Especial care should be taken in re-
gard to the condition of those who do
the milking or have anything to do
with handling the milk Special cloth
ing is advised to be worn during the
milking. That the worker should care
fully wash his hands before entering
upon the duty OF milking is taken as a
matter OF course. The milk vessels
should be thoroughly scrubbed with
hot water containing soda, and should
hen be scalded in boiling water, and
without rinsing in cold water, should
be turned upside down and allowed to
stand In the air until needed for use
and in no case should they be wiped
with rag after scalding.

DAIRY NOTES.

Dairying hicks well with any other
branch of farming.
The clothing and the hands of tho
mixer must be kept clean.
The growth of the dairy business
has been phenomenal in the last few
years.
Milk is most conveniently pasteur-
lied IN the bottles in which 1t is de-
livered
Considerable OF the dirt that enters
the milk during milking time comes
from the COWS.
If the cream separator runs hard
flush out all of the bearings with
kerosene or coal oil.
Bacteria cause ropy milk and are
usually found in the milk utensils
and not in the cows udder.
Uncleanliness in the milk is a very
serious obstacle to the making OF
either good butter or good cheese.
Dairying takes a little more care
than is necessary in beef production
perhaps, but really the labor is no
greater.
Germs are everywhere and Il Is
irF possible under practical farm con-
ditions to keep them entirely out or
the milk.
Uncleanliness counts more in han
ding milk than 1t probably does ira
any other product, whether of farm
or factory.
Get a dairy sire of proved merit.
and then keep him as long as you can
This will make for uniformity In your
dairy herd.
When the milking is done in stables
millions of bacteria often enter the
milk every minute during the timo
IL is exposed.

at hundred points constant care Ia
required In milking II the milk II u

Bindinq on Blankets.

One of the first places to show wear
in a blanket is along the edge, which
will begin to split into coarse
fringe. Keeping blankets we'll bound
with inch wide ribbon will prevent
this. Unless some accident happens
to blanket patching is not resorted
to until it is very old. then a piece
from another blanket may be laid on
large enough to cover the worn place
and held in place by darning rather
than scanning. All thin places can be
fortified by darning with rawlings
from an old blanket When the
blanket is worn past repair, just
double it and quilt it together here
and there and lay it across the mat
tress under the sleet, and it will con
tinue to be of service.

COUTURE is PINNED ON
SOLVES HAIR PROBLEM FOR THE
BUSY WOMAN.
Variety Of Styles Adapted to All
Types of Faces to Choose From,
Thanks to Designers and Max
ers of Hair Goods.

The problem of dressing the hair
in the prevailing modes, for the busy
women of the present day, could not
be solved by the hairdresser alone,
for an elaborate couture, or any fairly
good effect in coiffures, requires the
art of the hairdresser plus plenty of
time.
But there is no such thing any
more as plenty of time" at least not
in any quarter of the fashionable
world
Hairdressing has therefore really
become, in the majority of cases, the
pinning on of a cleverly made colt
fure; its adjustment securely and ar
tistically to the head. Designers and
makers of hair goods have been quick
to seize upon the increasing demand
for the pinned-on couture, and there
are now a variety of styles to choose
from adapted to different types of
faces. or one may have one designed
especially. These coiffures consist
OF one Or two, and sometimes three,
pieces or are all in one. For persons
with a ecant allowance of hair the
couture to be pinned on is provided
with an additional piece at the frorW
One of the prettiest and simplest of
the pinned-on coiffures is shown here.
1t consists of a chignon of smooth.
well-arranged puffs made of hair suf
ficiently long to allow several of them
to be pulled out into short curls
which are brought down to the front
hair Of the wearer. Springing from
the puffs at the back is a cluster of
short curls. These are allowed to fall
free or are pinned down to the neck,
as shown in the picture. 1t seems in
credible that so simple an arrange
ment Of hair, and one so easily ad
justed, can work such a transforma-
ton in the appearance of the wearer
But this simplicity is only an appar
ent simplicity after all Such a Golf
fure is the result of the careful
thought, long experience and consum-
mate art of the designer. 1t is made
to fit over and fasten to coil of the
natural hair at the back of the head
1t is very light in weight and deli
cately woven, giving the scalp as
