In experiments 1t has been found that

one pound Of grain feed. The potatoes
should be fed with Drain as alone they

should not be cooked as the raw Grain

OF FARMERS CAPITAL

The sixteenth annual report of the
secretary of agriculture, made public
today. begins with series OF short
paragraphs in which some important az
ricultural truths are strikingly express
ed. It proceeds with the customary re-
view of the agricultural production and
foreign trade of the year and contains
some results of an Investigation into
local conditions affecting agricultural
credit. the usual condensed statements
of the work of the bureaus during the
year, and long account of the work
and achievements of the. department
during the 16 years throughout whic b
Secretary Wilson'S service has extend
ed. What are termed brief comments
are expressed as follows: The dairy
COW is one of the principal producers Of
wealth on the farm. and the value of
her products in 1912 is estimated
at about $3.50. 600. 600, an amount which
acceeds the value of the cotton lint and
is nearly equal to the combined value
of lint and seed. The wheat crop is
worth only three fourths as much as the
dairy products. The magnitude of the
poultry industry is set forth. An egg
may be worth only cent and three
quarters, and yet 1. 700. 900, 600 dozen
eggs are worth. $3.50, 600, 000. and these
are the estimates for 1912. If to the
value mentioned is added the value of
the fowls raised. the products of the
poultry industry on farms amounts to
about $50. 600, 600. This is nearly
equal to the value of the wheat crop
and is more than three fourths of the
value Of the cotton lint produced this
year. The animals sold from the farm
and the animals slaughtered on it to-
gehter number about iii. O0O. 600, and
the farm value of these animals is es-
timated at 81, $3.50. 200. 600. The total
value of the animal products of the
farm in 1912 is estimated to be about
So, 395, 600. 600. This is larger value
than that of 1911. but is about $3.50. :
900. 600 below the estimate for 1910.
which is the only year that exceeds 1912

MUCH FUN AT HOBBY PARTY
Glover Idea Of Girl With Some Origin
allty That Is Well Worth Being
Initiated.

A party given recently by a clever
girl which was both original and en-
tertaining and proved to be a great
success was a hobby party. The in
vitations were worded in the following
manner: "Come to my party on We'd
nesday night and wear your pet hob
by; also state in your acceptance
what is your favorite dish"
The groups that assembled in the
big living room were Just the funniest
conglomeration imaginable, the "ec-
centricities of genius personihed." as
one girl expressed 1t.
There was the postage stamp fend
wearing a motley collection pasted on
various parts of her clothing, even

Short Sleeves and No Collars VIII Be
the Rule-Very Little Trimming
on Hats--Wraps Continue
Short In Length.

The little maids dressy summer
frock is still to be collarless and short
sleeved, but when this cut is unbecom-
inging to child, as it would be for a
thin little maid not in the best of
health, 1t is an easy enough matter
to add a guimpe and undersleeve of
tucked or plain net to either style.
In point of coats and headgear, the
mother who wants her child to look
well must surely consider the styles
set forth by the juvenile shops, for
somehow these people seem to get the
best ideas going for children's wraps
and millinery. There is a delicious
skimpiness about the trimmings of
the little hats-just enough and no
more-and while suggesting the adult
cuts OF older garments the wraps are
also simple and bewitching. With
the long coat there is tendency to
long" the wrap is still some inches
short Of the skirt bottom and often
quite as short as the knees. For
dressy use one shop showed a number
Of these curtailed coats in pongees Of
various sorts. silk, poplin. satin and
lined yelling. The pongee affairs
sported deep collars and cuffs of the
popular ratine lace, the collars often
with the deep back dip used for the
Quaker model. and the cuffs in a
straight, loose piece merely buttoning
over the bottom of the sleeves. With
the plain satins and silks, which were
in every color, as well as in black.
