CULTIVATE in
CELERY PATCH
Work Should Begin After Plants
are Well Started In July
Keep Soil Qnt Of
Plant.

After the celery plants are well
started. in July, commence to culti-
vate. 1t is much better to give shall
low cultivation rather than deeper
ones, as the roots of celery grow quite
near the surface, and cultivating two
inches deep will accomplish just as
much as four inches, provided, Of
course, that the ground is cultivated
often enough to keep a mulch of
loose soil. When the plants have at
tanned a height of about ten inches
blanching may be started.
Usually the plants will be quite
spreading, and they should be first
gathered together, and held in place
with one hand, while the soil is drawn
to them with hoe in the other hand.
Care should be exercised that no soil
gets into the heart Of the plant. This
is likely to cause the plant to rot.
Killing should not be done when the
ground is dry enough to crumble. If
done when the soil is wet the plants
are liable to rust. On small scale
celery may be blanched by putting
boards 1 inch thick and 2 to IA inches
wide on each side of the row and fill
ing the space around the plants with
sawdust or soil.

Now the "Jupe PantaIon."

The latest thing in iailormades is
the "jupe pantalon.p It has little in
common with the "jupe culotte,' or
harem skirt, except that that gave us
the bottom of the trousers, and the
"jupe pantalon" gives us the top of
the same garments It is skirt with
series of little close gatherings at
the waist. These are confined by small
buckles similar to the one used on
a mans trousers. At each side of the
skirt is a pocket, and in order to COM
plete the resemblance to masculine
wearing apparel, braces fastened by
buttons back and front hold up the
skirt. With this garment is worn a
shirt of white percale, perfectly fiat
ard plain, with long sleeves, wristlets
and high stiff collar, in fact mans
shirt in all it's unadorned severity.
The wearers of the "jupe pantalon"
costume when sitting around their
clubs, smoking cigarettes, look at first
sight like men in their shirt sleeves.

FEEDER RACKS SAVE FODDER AND LABOR
Considerable Labor

Self-feeder racks for supplying
foughags to sheep or cattle are not
only the means of saving consider
able labor, but, according to tests
made st the Colorado experiment
station, are the means Of saving a
great deal OF hay One lot of lambs at
this station were fed whole hay in a
self-feeder rack, and another lot
whole hay in racks on the ground,
such as are in common use in many
sections of the country. The average
gain Of these two lots was practically
the same, the lot feeding from the
self-feeder averaging only one pound
heavier than the other. says the
American Agriculturist. Also, the
grain consumed varied but little, be-
ing only nine pounds more for 100
pound gain in the first lot than, in
the second. The great saving came in
the cost of roughage.
The lot eating from the self-feeder
consumed Col pounds of hay for each
100 pounds of gain. and those eating
off the ground consumed 1873 pounds
of hay for each 100 pounds OF gain.
This indicates difference of prac-

Cruel Laws of a Past ACE.

1t is almost impossible to hang a
woman in this country, but in old
time England this was not the case.
King George III. once offered twenty
three women offenders an alternative
to hanging. They might, should they
choose, be transported instead. Six
of them voted for hanging. Many
women were then hanged for less
crimes than smashing windows.
George Pastor, for instance, notes the
fate of a woman left husbandless by
the press gang: Rendered desperate,
she entered shop and took up q
piece of linen but laid it down
again. For this she was condemned
to death, and was hanged, we are told.

KEY TO SUCCESS
ON DAIRY FARM
More Can be Accomplished When
Farmer and Animals are
Care4Eree and Con.
tented Ara Mind.
(By B. L. oUTNAM.)

The dairyman who is looking for
results will not allow the dog or the
small boy to worry his cows. He
knows that If he wants well filled
pail they must not be frightened but
kept quiet and content.
The grower of beef cattle is sure
to weed out the one that is continual
ly bawling, when 1t should be grazing,
for the simple reasoa that there Is
more waste than gain of adipose It's
sue at such a time. The stock con-
tent to feed upon the good pasture
at hand rather than busy themselves
trying to break into forbidden fields,
possibly not nearly as good, are the
ones that make the most gain in
weight
The hen that is dc eyed every time
she finds nice soft place to scratch
is not the one that makes the best
egg record. She may be hard on the
garden, but good fence would easily
fix that. Do not discourage her nat
ural efforts and then expect her to do
her best for you.
The horse that Is compelled to fight
flies continually cannot get in full
days work, or at least If it does there
s less in stamina, which eventually
tells on the life work of the animal.
Neither can it do it's best with an i'll
fitting harness. The horse that is
comfortable and in coed spirits Is the
one which makes the record.
A flock of sheep harassed by dogs
soon show the trouble in their general
condition as surely ss in their manner.
Fleetness of foot is not one OF the
characteristics of the animal and when
this is enforced as means Of preser-
walton it is to the detriment of the
flock.
The farmer and his family, as well
as his stock, accomplish more when
care-free AID in happy turn OF
mind. All nature is fresh and cheer
full. 1t is profitable for us to be like

AVOID THE coLORED FRoCK
Average Woman Will Make No Mis-
take When She Pins Her Faith
to White Material.

The woman of limited income
should not be tempted by colored
linen frocks. They are not wise
investment when gowns must neces-
sarily be few in number. They are
almost sure to fade, and even while
they possess all their original glory
they cannot be touched up and varied
by colored cravat and belt, as the
white outfit can Such is the imper-
ishable beauty of white that even the
inexpensive material known as sail
cloth, which can be bought for about
80 cents yard, can be made to look
smarter than the average colored lin
en-. Those yenturing upon costumes
of sail-cloth should, however, to make
assurance doubly sure, see that the
material has been well shrunk before
it is made up.
