MerIt Of Neatnesa.

There are many girls who. without
being at all good looking, always ap-
pear neat and smart
They may only have a small dress
allowance. but with it are able to APP
pear more attractive than girls who,
with twice their amount of money,
often look overdressed or dowdy.
What is the secret Of this?
Surely 1t is due to the neat girls
taste; she always puts on her clothes
with care and makes q point Of her
appearance being neat and tidy. She
keeps her wardrobe orderly and has
. place for everything; her ribbons,
gloves, handkerchiefs. etc, are never
bundled into drawer just to get
them out OF the way. but are carefully
put = 'heir proper places.

There doubtless has been an I'M
usual amount Of fur sold this season,
for the fashion oracIes have decreed
that this shall be fur season.
In many respects models for this
winter vary but slightly from those
OF the preceding season, but this is to
be expected, for much of the beauty
Of q fur garment depends upon the
quality and color Of the fur and the
fine workmanship displayed in its
fashioning, rather than upon original
.ity of line or trimming.
The most beautiful furs are at their
best when severely handled. No ap-
piled trimming or bizarre cutting can
improve Russian sable or silver fox,
and. as a rule, the better grades OF
long-haired flrs are more effective
when merely self.trimmed. Scarfs Of
one variety of fur are much In evil
dence, too. this season. even in the
short-haired furs, such as seal, ermine
and chinchilla.
Many OF the scarfs are three-quar-
ters or even yard wide. and pro-
portionately long, being lengthy
enough to drape around the body and
fall almost to the floor.
Ermine is usually left unadorned.
save for a fringe Of ermine tails.
And. incidentally, it may be noted that
the fashion for scattering tiny
splashes of black and faint yellow
over the surface OF an ermine coat,
scarf or muff no longer prevails. Pref

is drawn in toward the bottom to give

fine seal, breitschwanz, moleskin and
sable coats, there is apparently no
end, and these furs are made up into
coats ranging from the conservatively
practical coat for street wear to the
samptuous evening wrap.
Sealskin is perhaps the smartest fur
for street or evening wear, and one OF
the sketches in the large drawing
shows an extremely chic model for
afternoon or evening wear, made of
sealskin. The coat has high turn
down collar at the back, and at the
front there are long revers. the right
revers crossing over to the left and
fastening at the left side. The back
Of the garment is also cut in point
shape, the point crossing over to the
right side. The coat is lined with
white velvet.

A successful poultryman is a good

Poultry will not thrive upon an ex-
elusive grain diet.
The floor of the poultry house
should be so constructed and of such
material that 1t is dry.
Selection OF breeding stock is one OF
the most important duties connected
with the poultryman's work.
The busy hen il the money maker.
The singing hen Is laying hen. Be
wise and choose accordingly.
Put the plow or spade into every

how the hens will thank you.

with their selling ability. The better

II there be one thing more essential
to success in poultry rearing than an
other, it is to go slow, and learn Wis

To be successful In any line of work
requires forethought and judicious
planning. Especially is this SO in the
raising Of poultry.
No poultry farm is complete with

When you confine your birds in

to feed too heavily or you will give
them bowel complaint.
The necessity Of thoroughly clean

Of the year Is obvious to all who give
the subject much thought.
One person on the farm should have
charge Of the poultry. and that per
son should not be the hired man or
boy. but some member OF tha family.
