DESIGN FOR SILK STOCKINGS
Oriental Characters Arc the Latest to
Be Used by Those Who Like
Embroidery.

Girls who are fond of needleworl1
will want to embroider themselves
two or more pairs of silk stockings
in the now fashionable Oriental de-
signs.

any color you desire; then with a
sharp-pointed piece of tailor's chalk

rious Chinese or Japanese symbol.
lettering or number.
These can be found in any Oriental
shop or on Chinese laundry check.
They are not difficult to sketch, being
for the most part broad lines crossing
each other In curious manner
These should be slightly padded
with very soft darning cotton. SO that
the center will be raised above the
outer edge. The embroidery is then
done in fine floss silk, using brilliant
red, green. yellow, purple and blue. All
colors rich in tone are effective. and
occasionally threads of silver and gold
can be introduced in the embroidery.
Care must be taken when applying
the work to colored stockings that the
colors used In the embroidery harmo-
nize with that of the stocking itself.
Any color or combination of colors
can be. used on black.
Tiny beads and small flowers are
lovely when worked In rich Oriental
colors. For example. spray of wis
taria is charming on violet silk stock
ings. Cherry blossoms on white or
green. iris on blue or yellow, and the
flaming poppy on black.
When working, an easy way to keep
the stocking taut SO the embroidery
will lie smooth is to slip china egg
or very smooth darning egg into the
stocking, then hold the silk tightly
over that as you would for ordinary
darning. The embroidery will then
be perfectly smooth when worn.

PROPER SYSTEM

Value of Farmer Keeping Account
of Farm Management Same
as Business Man.

Farmers Bulletin 511 of the Depart

teresting facts and recommendations
in connection with bookkeeping on the
farm. That there are over six mil.

of income making gives the author.
the opportunity to discuss the subject
of the value of the farmer keeping an
accurate and systematic account of his
farm management the same as the
business man or the railroad mag

This bulletin is not an attempt to
outline a system of bookkeeping for
of the principles which are applicable
to accounts on the farm. 1t is be-
lieved that any farmer who studies
this bulletin sufficiently to grasp these
principles will be able to devise sys-
tenn suited to his particular needs.
Two important points must be CON.

keeping. What does 1t cost to pro.
duce farm products? BY selling at
market prices. what profit is made on
them?
The problem OF the farmer is to
meet conditions on his own farm in
way which will give him the greatest
net returns for his labor and the use
of his capital. He should receive in.
terest on his capital as well as wages
for his labor, but owing to the lack OF
proper records few farmers know
what wages they actually receive.
There is reason to believe that the ma.
jority of farmers are really living on
the interest of their investments rath-
er than on the profits of their farms /"
These suggestions are offered:
"a Consider as one unit all that
may be termed real estate. as land.

whether the farm is rented or owned
by the operator.
(2) Do not consider that the far
mer or his family receive anything for
their labor unless they are paid in
cash the same as hired labor. II there
is a surplus at the end of the year. IT
is their compensation. In this way
the accounts will not be confused with
items not strictly cash.
(S) Farm products used by the
household should not be credited to
the farm in the cash account alone
with the products sold, but should be
taken care Of separately"

PRACTICAL TESTS
IN NEW FARMING
Missouri Station Making Coop
erative Experiments With
Farmers of That State.

The Missouri experiment station is
making cooperative experiments with
the farmers in los of the ia counties
OF the state. These cooperative ex
periments are conducted for the pur
pose of determining the best methods
of soil tilage, varieties OF farm crops
methods of fruit production, profitable
dairy farms and the organization and
administration of farm enterprises.
In 1911, there were 366 men in los
counties cooperating with the central
Experiment Station OF Columbia in ex
periments to determine the best meth
ods of farming. In carrying on this
work. 5000 packages of seed and more
than 10000 pounds of fertilizer were
used.
These cooperative experiments have
already demonstrated that alfalfa
can be successfully grown in every
county of the state.
The horticulture Investigations in
eight different districts have shown
that by proper fertilization of or
chards and timely spraying. the profits
from orcharding in Missouri may be
greatly increased.
The dairy farm co-operators on sew
en- farms in southwest Missouri have
under the direction of the dairy de
partment, increased their profits in
some cases more than 20 per cent
The assistance given to farmers by
the department OF farm management
in the organization and administra
tion have accomplished in some cases
extraordinary results In increasing
yields. Some of the owners of farms
cooperating in this work have made
the following statements In reference
to the value of this work on their in.
dividual farms:
/. The yield has been increased
at least four fold; corn from 10 to 40
bushels per acre"
2. THE financial side OF my farm.
ing has been helped from three to five
hundred dollars"
3. THE financial side has been
helped 81 900 this year"
4. THE returns from my farm this
year have been at least $1,000 more
than they were before"
g. Farm management has been
the cause of my remaining on the
farm. 1t put my farm on business
basis, restored confidence In my worn
out farm. greatly increased the fertil
ity of the farm. 1t has also lightened
the labor OF myself and family, en-
