Cradle of N. Y. Yacht Club.

Shortly after the revolution Colonel
Stevens purchased Hoboken, which
was then an island of swamps and
rocky hills, and established the family
on Castle Point, a beautiful promon-
tory overlooking the Hudson and New
York city. John G. Stevens, the ia.
Their of American yachting, was born
there in 1885.
There were no ferries in those days
and the Stevens boys of necessity be.

named Diver. AS the years passed by
he had the schooner Gimcrack built
for him by William Capes in Hoboken
This boat is one of the most his.
toric craft of American yachting, since
she was the cradle Of the New York
Yacht club, the organization being &C
compllshed in her cabin on July 80
1874, the year in which so many OF

VALUE OF THE CABBAGE CROP
EARLY Varieties Practically Consumed
az Green Vegetable and Later for
Making Sauer kraut.


Although one Of the coarser vege.
tables, cabbage finds a place in the
home garden as well as In the market
garden and the truck farm and in
some sections of the United States it
Is extensively grown as a farm crop.
No adequate estimate, however can
be placed ON the value of this crop,
as it fluctuates very decidedly from
year to year both in acreage and price;
but the output Is large-the three
states of New York, Pennsylvania and
Virginia, which outrank all the. others,
grow commercially about $4,000 acres
of this vegetable, either as a spring or
autumn CROP in addition to the home
garden supply which was consumed at
home.
Early cabbage is practically all con-
sumed as a green vegetable the late
crop on the other hand, is handled as
fresh vegetable. as storage crop,
and for the manufacture of sauer
kraut. Cabbage is always in demand,
and under present conditions, Is
always on the market either in the
spring as the product of the southern
farms, in the fall and early winter
from the northern farm and market
garden. or in the winter from the
storage house where the surplus has
been preserved for this demand.

KILLING OFF THE BOOSTERS
Only Few Of the Best Produced
Cocks Should Be Kept for Ex-
change With Other Farmers.

Minnesota has surplus from hel
farms annually of over 1,500,00t
cases of eggs, says a state bulletin
Three-fifths of these are produced be
fore September l of each year. The
Government experts consider thai
there is a loss of five per cent. II
value because of chick development
or because boosters run with the lay
Ing flock. This common practice
causes loss of about 100000 an
nually to the farmers Of Minnesota
What should be done.
A few breeding cocks, the best pro
duced, should be kept for exchange
with other farmers or for sale. These
should BIO confined by themselves, like
all the other breeding stock Of the
farm; and all the rest should be killed
o. sold at once. They should never
be allowed to run with the flock. Yor
will get just as many eggs; they will
cost you less; they are more easily
preserved; will Withstand heat long
or; are better for shipping; are better
for storage; will save the hens from
injury during the mott; and they will
go to laying sooner.
Mate up your breeding pens; keel
two or three extra birds for emergen
cies; then sell or kill all the rest o.
the ROSTERS on the farm. Help save
that $1,000,000, and perchance save
yourself from paying fine of $50 fol
marketing eggs unfit for human food
Let there be mighty slaughter o.
these unproductive, greedy. useless
roosters on the farm.

THAT cONS0LING CUP OF TEA
Traveller Is Wise Who Provides Her.
self With Materials for Making the
Cheering Beverage.

In travelling both at home and
abroad, there is great comfort in your
own cup of tea. On the steamer, par
ticularly, you miss your own brand,
and the well-versed traveller who is
wise in the lore of creature comforts
never wanders far from home without
her tea caddy. 1t adds greatly to her
popularity, too "Oh, If l only had a
good cup of tea" is the general cry
on shipboard, and then this far-sight-
ed woman produces the cheering
leaves, and she becomes the center Of
attraction, and has her little coterie
every afternoon. There are some who
prefer it for the morning meal, too, in
stead of the usual mediocre coffee with
condensed milk.
For this poignant need of the travel
er, charming little tea box of ma
hogany containing small silver tea
caddy and little tea ball, reproducing
in miniature tea kettle, has been put
upon the market. 1t is very simple in
arrangement, compact, and easy to
pack and makes a really practical
gift.
There are many places on the con-
tinent where good tea is real luxury,
and many an unsophisticated Amer.

The Father
By MADCE E. ANDERSON

adam Goshart, Cobbler," was
printed In large, uneven letters on a
sign-board across the front of a rough
board house In western town.
Adam was justly proud Of his sign,
for his capacity had been severely
tried In forming those rude letters. A
small room at the back Of his shop
was shoemaker's home. A dog was
bis companion.
With this companion close up at his
side, Adam was huddled over his stove
(for a norther was blowing), finish
Ing a pair of cowboy boots, when his
ear caught sound at his shop door.
Deadly uncertain, he rose, the dog
barked: "Yesi" The fierce wind took
his breath, but he wheezed out cheer
full: "Oh, come in, right, sonny" In
side, he took the worn little shoe from
the child, saying: Jack Frost is
a-bitten your toes; 1t was his bitten
mine as fust made me think of my
trade. Yes, sure I'll mend you shoe
fur you, fust thing; them boots kin
wait"
Contented with the situation, the
child climbed upon one end of Adams
bench; soon he had the various lasts
formed into bunch OF ponies and was
driving them with a broken quirt he
had In his hand.
Adam loved children, and this child's
fancies kept his deaf ear alert, and
when the boy had wearied of his pom
les and began to ask questions about
all he saw in the shop, the mans thin
face broadened with smiles and his
watery eyes shed tears from laughter

Slow in his answers to the quick
witted boy, he was kicked on his

NEGLIGEEs OF CHINA SILK !

Forgotten.

Pale tinted china silk kimonos en-
broidered in self tones are charming
and soft, for they, like SO many of the
seasons garments, are made Of the
thinnest of thin china silk These have
collar which turns back fiat and
very short sleeves, the back of the
robe is plain, and the entire garment
Is unlined. In pink they suggest
spring blossoms.
In this very thin china silk may also
be purchased dainty waists made sail
or fashion, the collar, tie and pocket
are of striped gray and white china
silk At about the same price come
plain white china silk waists with high
collars. Marquisette waists for "sep-
arate blouse" wear are still very high
in price; some are made of high neck,
and others Dutch neck. Much Cluny
lace Is to be seen in the wash shirt
waists Of inexpensive mode. These
also come both Dutch neck and

One of the most beautiful hats
shown this season is portrayed in the

of the softest and finest Milan braid

through slashes in the straw. Such

the single standing plume with un
