Of Interest to tVon1en
FOR GROWING GIRLS
Modes That Are Suited to Their
Immature figures.

Most mothers find it an easy matter to
design and even TO make gowns for chill
dren under ten. The little figures are
straight at that age. and seem to require
nothing more than the straight lines OF a
one-piece frock. A few years later when
the budding curves and the waist line be-
gin to appear. the fitting OF a gown is
more difficult, and also It is harder mat
ter to devise suitable models Whether the
waist line should be defined or suppressed
is question.
A safe rule to follow IL to insist on the
low belt line so long as It is becoming.
When the hips become at all broad the
belt has to be lifted 10 its natural place.

SECURING GOOD SEED CORN
Prof. Bryan Of Kentucky Suggests Co.
Operation Among Farmers to
Get Carefully Bred Product.

Prof T. r. Bryant of the Kentucky
Agricultural Experiment Station. in
bulletin 1853, suggests cooperation
among the farmers in the selection and
care Of seed corn, viz:
The question of good seed is one
that stares US In the face each spring
aud there is an enormous demand for
good reliable seed corn. Great i'm.
portance is attached to the testing OF
saed, and below we shall describe the
methods by which 1t may be done.
However, II our corn has not been
properly cared for during the fall and
winter, our test will simply reveal to
Us the fact that our corn is of a low
grade as regards termination and vi.
tssity.
The ideal condition for communities
So far as seed corn is concerned
would be the presence Of some man in
that community who has through long
years carefully bred pure seed corn
and made a study of how to gather
and take care of seed, thus being able
to supply his community with the best
product Few communities are thus
favored. Hence probably the best plan
that could be recommended would be
for each person to select his own seed
corn In the fall. even though it is not
padigreed corn, or better still. get hi

as near home as possible. snd after
that save his own seed.

of two barrel ends. one for the top,
one for the foot, which may be small

Fasten each of them securely with
two clamps q wood, leaving room be.
tween to nail them on to the large
log. Nail on each end Of the chunk
with few stout wire nails, leaving
the clamps on the side that goes onto
the leg. One barrel end will be for
foot, the other for top. Take q
piece of cretonne or furniture cotton:
pleat It very fully and tack 1t on
around the top with preventive tacks
and any old brand of binding; catch
it in half way between the top and
bottom with piece Of old bright rib
