BUTTON MAKING.
This 10 an Occupation That Calls For
No Special Skill.

NO SpcClal okll.
Buttons have an irresistible fascina-
ton in these days for the clever home
dressmaker, for they put within her
reach a practically infinite number Of
effective touches for her frocks which
will take from her very little in the
way of either time or msley.
A pretty button can be made by first
covering the padded mold with white
silk and putting over this two thick
nesses of silver gauze decorated with
little cluster Of steel beads-in the cen
ter-from which radiate half n dozen
or more loops of reseda green chenille.
Narrow shaded ribbon can be woven
into charming button cover. A foun-
dation should be cut from white silk.
on this lay short lengths of the ribbon,
the edges touching, and sew the ends
securely. Then, with a needle thread
ed with ribbon, darn in the reverse
pieces. If liked a tiny fril made of
slightly gathered ribbon may be sewed
around the edge Of the button.
Motifs cut from lace which has pass
ed its days of usefulness in the ordi-
nary way can do their part toward
making fancy buttons. A small daisy
pattern tackled to white silk and work
ed over in satin stitch in any color pre-
ferred with a few French knots added
will make an embroidered button that
is decidedly expensive in appearance.
On cloth or velvet a button covered
with velvet and trimmed with fine
braid in fancy mixture of colors may
be used. The braid can be knotted in
the center and radiate toward the out
er rim, where the separate bits should
be connected by single strand Of the
braid. with knots to keep all in place.

as women have a large share in the
management of the flock on the aver
age farm 1t should be so located. 1t is
undesirable to build the poultry house
near granaries, cribs or barns which
may furnish harbor for rats and 9TH
er vermin which prey on poultry. A
sunny location well sheltered from the
north winds is highly desirable when
ever it is possible to obtain it without
sacrificing good ground drainage.
The A-shaped movable colony home

been thoroughly tried out and found
to be very satisfactory for raising
chicks in flocks of 200 to 300. 1t will

its lightness and substantial construc-
tion 1t can be readily moved from place

foundation for the house. 1t is warm
and convenient, and the fowls are well
protected from drafts.

Prizes for card parties are easily

Convenient, Sunny Location and Good

Good growth Of poultry and heavy
egg production depend to a large ex-

tive committee will make plans accord
ingiy. Lee suggested last week, IN a letter
change In the city charter that will ALLOW
Omaha to annex any territory within q
given distance from the city limits. with
out a vote Of the people within the terri
tory affected. He suggested the election
TO the legislature Of Douglas county
delegation pledged to work for the pro-
posed amendment.
In the discussion Of the matter. F, D,
Wead said:
ut Is a matter Of general knowledge
that all the municipalities adjoining
Omaha expect TO become a part Of the
city some day. II is also known that
they are plling up their bonded Indebted
ness for public improvements with the
expectation that Greater Omaha will
pay the bill. This is SHOWN by recent de-
velopments at Florence, where the city
obligated itself for large sum OF money
for the paving Of ThirtIeth street, on
the ground that Florence wouldn't have
to foot the BILL as 1t eventually would
be taken into Omaha.
so Il Is advisable TO get these towns
into Omaha before their debt becomes too
large"
Mike Lee believes It would be easy for
a united Douglas county delegation to
secure the passage of the proposed
amendment. as the legislators from the
rest OF the state would not interfere In
Douglas eounty's internal affairs.
