USE FOR THE ODDS AND ENDS
Always Something in Boxes and 5as-
kets That May Be Put to
Some Advantage.

Has it ever occurred to some women
hat if they occasionally went through
the boxes and baskets of things that
have been put away, too good to
throw away and too shabby to use,"
hat there are many little things
among their contents that could be
put to use once more. What woman
1oes not possess in some niche or
corner of her room a box of old belt
Or shoe buckles, pocketbooks, belts
and numerous other articles Of wom-
ans attire. Often a trip to the sea-
shore has rusted steel buckles, which
ire then put aside as useless. These
buckles, however, can very easily be
cleaned by using emery powder made
INTO a paste with some oil. This
should be applied to the buckles,
when it is left for a few moments
ind allowed to soak into the rust.
This should then be thoroughly re-
moved with a soft cloth dipped in oil
Ind finally polished with clean cloth.
For the shabby leather articles all
The stores are selling preparations

MARES BEST FOP FARM WORK
able From Economic Standpoint
Than Mules or Ceilings.

The percheron society Of America
has had the most rapid expansion in
membership in the past seven
months that it has ever experienced,
the gain in new members being 7S4
individual breeders. 4 very large
share of this growth in membership
has come from men VINO are but be-
ginners in the breeding of Percheron
horses and the list of new members
covers nearly all the states Of the I'm
ion. ranging from Maine to California,
and from Saskatchewan, Canada, to
Texas.
The chief factor in the rapid dis
tribution OF pure bred Percherons
appears to be the rapidly growing
realization among farmers that pure
bred mares will do farm work more
effectively than even grade mares.
and that they are vastly more profit
able from an economic standpoint
than geldings or mules employed in
farm work, writes Wayne Dinsmore in
the Farm and Home. The latter re-
turn only their labor. while mares dis
charge the work of the farm as we'll
as geldings or mules and produce in
their colts an additional source CT
revenue.

ATTENTION FOR YOUNG COLTS
If Allowed to Become stunted in First
Nine Months It Never Attains
Full Maximum Growth.

In buying up colts about the neigh
Dorhood we have found that a colt
that has been stunted during the first
nine months of it's life will never
make the maximum amount Of growth
and that it will not attain the weight
of another from the same sire and
dam raised under more favorable con-
ditions, says a writer in the Horse
Breeder. The draft horse is an ami
NAL that natures early and makes
one-half of its growth before it is y
months of age. 1t Is not unusual for
draft colt to weigh 1900 pounds at
II months, and, indeed, that is the
aim of many breeders. The extra care
end feed required to bring colt up to
this weight amounts to little and is
far more than returned by the added
weight attained at maturity.
The young colt will begin to eat
small amount of grain when little
more than a month of age. Bran and
crushed oats make an excellent feed
to begin with when the colt is still
with it's dam.
There is a practice Of allowing the
colt to run with its dam at all times.
Allowing the colt to suckle when the
mare is hot is likely to cause bowel
trouble and 1t is almost entirely i'm
possible to prevent this when the colt
is running by the side Of the mare. 1t
Is expecting too much to ask young
colt to cover as many miles in a day
as the older animal covers. The colt
cannot make good gains under such
circumstances. 1t gets gaunt and
comes in at night with tagging head
and dropping spirits. The feed used
should serve other purposes than to
run off in following the mare We
leave the colts in the barn during the
day, bringing the mares to the barn at
noon for the colts to suckle. The
mares get so they do not worry at all
while working, and at the same time
the colts can play about the barn and
grow.

NOW THE WINTERHALTEN GIRL
She Is Most Likely to Supply the
Models for the Paris Fashions
This Autumn.

The efforts of the Paris dressmak-
ers to abolish tight skirts and clinging
empire gowns have hitherto met with
little success. This autumn. however,
it looks as if the threadlike figure of
the ultra modern girl in her scant
dress is to disappear and in her place
will come a revised edition of the Win
terhalten girl with her full founced
skirt, her trim pointed bodice and her
fchu of fine linen or rich lace.
Even Poiret, who perpetrated the
harem skirt and helped to keep alive
the vogue of the hobble skirt, has now
Joined his fellow dressmakers in their
efforts 20 reintroduce width and
breadth in the line of womanhood. In
deed the great man upon whose ideas
smart dressmakers and smart women
wait has limited that small hoops may
be used to give the skirt that swinging
grace that was part of the charm Of
the Winterhalten girl

SPLENDID CANADIAN
CROPS
Wheat. Oats and Barley Uni
versaIy Good Throughout
Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta.

The reports that come to hand from
the wheat fields of the western cana
dian provinces show remarkably goou
yields in all parts. Yields are record
ed of wheat going IS and 40 bushels
in many places, and oats from oU u
100 bushels per acre. Barley and max
are splendid. The thousands OF Amer
leans throughout the United States
who have friends in Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan or Alberta will be pleased
to learn of the great success that
has followed their efforts. Many OF
these have not confined themselves TO
the growing Of grain, but have also
gone into the cattle industry. On the
luxurious grasses that are so abun'
dant there, in almost all DISTRICTS
make this industry safe and profitable.
The land sales reported by the rail-
way companies and by the different
land companies show the great in
crease that will likely take place
during the next year in farming oper-
ations. What has been said time and
time again may now be we'll repeated,
that there is no place on the Amerl-
can continent where the same oppor-
tunities are afforded the man looking
for a home, for the young man start
ing out in life, the man with a grow
ing up family, who desires wider
scope for his ambition. The Cana
dian government agents located at
different points in the states will be
glad to advise the reader of the condi-
lions, and relate to him instances of
the great success that has followed
farming in Western Canada.

About one-half of the live weight OF
the hog is water.
Millet straw is not a good feed for
COWS and horses.
Sheep respond to cheaper foods
quicker than any live stock we fatten.
Alfalfa, bluegrass and clover make
the best permanent pastures for hogs.
You can make a pound Of pork on
half the feed that you can a pound OF
beef.
Hogs maybe produced to run to an
age of IS months and weigh $50 to 500
pounds.
Good grass serves as a relish and
appetizer to hogs of all ages and con-
ditions.
Replace that old lot of razor-back
hogs with a boar and several sows of
pure breed.
Grass serves as a tonic for the brood
SOW, the boar and the fattening hog
as we'll as the growing pig.
1t should be clearly understood that
the principles of feeding apply alike
to horses, hogs and poultry.
Nearly all the care sheep need in
the winter is to keep them well fed
and keep off the rain and snow.
A variety of food isbetter for most
of the animals on the farm because it
stimulates appetite and aids digestion.
Cottonseed will furnish protein at
lower cost than oil meal and is better
