HOW TO IMPROVE FARM STOCK
The Importance Of Always Breeding
Straight.

The Importance Of Always Breeding
Straight.
One of the prime objects in mating
farm animals is to increase the hardi-
ness. No matter what other merits
the sire or dam may have, IL they are
not strongly constituted they will not
impart that vigor which Is so neces-
sary for successful growth. Strictly
thoroughbreds are not always In the
pink of condition. They are very apt
to have a weakness that IL impaired
to the offspring win result in failure.
So that when 1t comes to mating farm
animals one of the most intricate and
difficult problems that one might be re-
quired to solve is presented. and there
should not be any rash ventures made.
Those who are affected with the
cross craze. whether in hogs. cattle or
horses, should select the breed. that
suits them best AS a general thing
the best breed for any one is the breed
one likes best or of which one can
secure well bred sires with tie least
trouble and expense. II a man likes
Poland China and can get good stres
of that breed he should by all means
breed Poland Chinas; IL Chester
Whites. he should select that breed.
If he likes Tamworths for the good
they can do. especially II he has his
pigs come in May and June and keeps
them through the year. then he should
get the Tamworths.
Then in selecting males always have
the breeder give an extended pedigree
that is. pedigree that will show the
breeding for at least four generations
on each side. Note how often 1t goes
back to some particular sire. Rum
ming back two or three times would
not be Objectionable. possibly would
be desirable, but one should be sure
that he is not breeding so close in line
as to injure the vitality Of the herd.

Glass is another shower that Is new

HOW TO USE A LACE VEIL.
Many Ways to Use This Apparently
Useless Article,

Many Ways to Use This Apparently
Useless Article.
Many women have in their posses
sion a lace veil which is either worn
in places or is unbecoming.
There are many ways to utilize this
apparently useless article.
A pretty guimpe fashioned of a veil
of black chantilly lace is effective with
almost any gown. Buy a pattern the
correct size and cut out the lace. Never
cut through design, but around 1t, so
when sewed together the guimpe will
appear woven in one piece.
The new spring styles in millinery
display a great variety Of lace covered
hats. These are especially pretty and
will harmonic with any gown.
To fashion one of these purchase
fat pancake shape Of straw the desired
color. Carefully arrange the lace veil
as smoothly as possible over the entire
hat
Fasten firmly upon the inside crown
and sew in a lining Of soft silk.
The upper brim is void Of trimming,
but underneath is a garland Of roses.
This hat is especially pretty to wear
with lingerie gowns and may be of
black or white lace.
Another charming use for a discard
ed lace veil is to fashion a Marie An
toinette fichu. This Is entirely a mat
ter of artistic draping. Fold the veil
in half and pin the center to the mid
die Of the back.
Arrange in graceful folds over the
shoulders and tack down with thread,
then tie together with a soft knot and
allow the ends to hang in front.
The loose panel is leading feature
of the summer frock. The lace veil
may be used for this purpose.

Every few people know that furni-

J One should take bucket Of tepid rain
water and make a suds with a good
pure soap. Then with a soft piece of
cheesecloth all the woodwork should
be washed. 1t is astonishing how much
dirt will come off. A second piece of
cheesecloth shouldsbe wrung dry out Of
hot water. On this, should be poured
tablespoon Of first class furniture pol
fish. The heat will spread the polish
through the cloth. Next the furniture
should be gone over with the second
cloth. There will be no need Of put
ting on more polish. for that much will
do all one needs. Too many persons
maze the mistake of using too much
polish and leaving it thick on the furni-
ture. where 1t looks dauby and where
1t gathers more dirt"
There is furniture in homes today
that is cast Off because of its appear

to its original freshness by this simple
process of washing. Many persons do
not know that a fine bit of mahogany

How to Briohten a Dark Room.


In nearly every home there is always
sure to be one dark and gloomy room.
1t casts it's depression upon all who
enter it, and yet one is often at loss
as to what should be done to dissipate
the lugubrious effect.
1t should be dealt with ruthlessly.
White paint and enamel should be
used with a generous hand. Dark
woodwork should not be tolerated, and
dull or gloomy paper should be avoid
ed. Hang the room in a paper of sun
ny yellow hue, put up only curtains of
thin net and decorate your walls with
pictures framed in white and gold and
silver gray frames.
Many mirrors, if possible, should be
used. for they aid wonderfully in
frightening a dark room, but they
must not be hung too high. as they
will only reflect the ceiling, while they
should catch the cheerful frame Of an
open fire and repeat its CLEAN.

HOW TO CARE FOR Teeth.
CASTLE Soap and Phosphate Of Chalk
Good Dentifrice.

CASTLE Soap and Phosphate Of Chalk
Good Dentifriee.
The teeth add so much to ones ap-
pearance that one cannot be too thor
ough in the care of them.
They have a great deal of work to do.
They aid in the digesting Of the food !;
they are beautifiers, and, like all things
which have several duties to perform,
they need constant attention and care.
If the teeth Of an individual are kept
entirely free from particles of food and
tartar they will not become decayed,
but II they are not thoroughly kept
clean they will decay quickly.
After every meal any particles of
food which may be lodged in the teeth
should be removed with a small piece
of dental floss. One should take espe-
cial care as to what tooth powders and
washes one uses. Many lotions and
powders contain injurious acids. which
instead of preserving and cleaning the
teeth ruin the enamel
II the teeth are cleaned daily with
white CASTLE soap and precipitate Of
chalk they can be kept in condition
Occasionally they should be washed
with an antiseptic lotion
One should never use q brush which
is too stif, as 1t is hard on the enamel.
The teeth should be rubbed up and
down, SO that the bristles can get in
between the teeth, removing all parti-
cles.
Many will take the greatest care to
keep the outside Of the teeth in perfect
condition, but neglect the back OF them
This needs just as much attention and,
although little harder to reach, should
be cleaned in the same way.
