Luncheon Set.


The engaged girl has an excellent
chance to make an extremely attrac-
tive luncheon set at small cost by
attending sales and selecting from
tie mussed and odd doilies all sizes
which have ordinary plain scallops,
says the Ladies Home Journal. Buy
six or a dozen Of the 10-inch size for
plate doilies, not bothering to match
the stamped patterns SO long as the
scallops match If you choose the
ordinary scallop you can match them
in six or four-inch size for tumbler
deilies, and in Is, Is or 20-inch size
for the center piece. Launder them
to get out the stamping mark, then
embroider each with pretty initial
or monogram, in different sizes pro-
portionate for each dolly, and you
have lovely luncheon set at very
little cost You will be able to get
the smaller doilies at cents and
sometimes two for 5 cents, whereas
you would pay s1.50 or 50 for q
matched set simply stamped.

the still more unattractive sobriquet
of gumsackers,' on account of our
great forests Of blue gum trees.
Queensland is in the tropics, and
its inhabitants are called banana eat

eaters, because in times Of drouth the

with a wonderful development of
forequarters and barrel and the other
having an extreme development in
the headquarters, the resulting off
spring is very likely to be weak in
both these points. All of the good
qualities that are now possessed by
our improved liv estock have been de-
veloped there and consequently is not
in any marked degree fixed. The old,
original type is still present, though
| latent, and by the mating of animals
that do not conform to the same type,
the old, original type is likely to come
out. OF course we have to correct the
weak points in one animal by selecting
an animal Of the opposite sex which
is strong in this one point, but all
other characteristics should be of a
similar nature. Many a, young breed
er has been ruined by buying high
priced animals of two distinct types,
beliving that he had a foundation
upon which he could build, and from
which he would get nothing but good
stock. Again, if We select our fOunda-
ton animals that do conform in a
distinct type, the offspring is very
likely to have practically the same
type or form and will have this type
more strongly fixed so that when they
are mated with the natiev stock they
will be able to transmit their charac-
teristics to their offspring over
against those which are found in the
native stock. A fixed characteristic
in a strong individual gives US what

PRICE OF CRUDE

PURCHASING AGENCY, WHICH

BY Associated Press,

Pittsburg, Pa, Dec. 26.-Anuo'.nce-

zeeh Purchasing Agency, now the
buying power of old Standard Oil or
ganiaztions, of an advance in Penn
sylvania crude oil of five cents a
barrel, bringing the price paid indie
pendent producers to S1.35 barrel.
The last preceding change in the
price of Pennsylvania, the basis of the
crude oil market, was made June IL,
1910. when the price was reduced to
$130. Officials of the Standard COM
panies stated that there was no par
ticular shortage in the grades of oil
affected, and expressed the belief that
the advance had come as an indication
that times were much better and the

q I have had brought to my attention
this fall, on the visits have made to
the various fairs and elsewhere, a
state of affairs which if allowed to
continue will cause a vast amount of
harm to live stock breeders of the
state. This condition is the lack of
uniformity in the selection of breed
uniformity in the offspring
Right now is the critical stage in
the history of live stock of this state.
Breeders. are only just beginning to
lay foundation for their herds which
IS to result finally in the Improvement
Of Florida stock. While there are
many points to be taken into consid-
Grafton in building up the herd or
flock, no one of these is more impor-
tant than that of the selection of
ANIMALS that conform in a marked
desr@ to the same type. Many a
breedG-, not only in this state, but
others as we'll, has made the mistake
Of selecting animals that look moth
ing alike in form, size or general
makeup, though belonging to the
same breed; just because an animal
happens to be pure bred and is of a
big family, it does not necessarily
our herd or flock. or that the result
OF the mating is going to be satisfac
tory. And let me say right here that
there is almost as much difference
between some of the families of the
various breeds as there is between
the breds themslvs. Great care should
be exercised in the selection of the
male to see that he conforms in type,
form, general makeup. disposition
and habits to those of the females in
the herd. The reasons for the above
statement are practical anil deal en-
ttrely with the final success Of the
breeder. The more closely the two
animals conform to the same type,
the less liability there Is of the varia-
