Return Of the Tiny Hat.

Is the tiny hat coming back again ?
This is the question that many wo.
men are asking themselves at pres.
ent and which might already be said
to have been answered in the affirma.
tive.
1t ia a long time since we have
really given the tiny hat chance OF
impressing its good qualities upon us
Nevertheless. 1t certainly has its pros
as well as its cons. The absence OF
any soft shade which deepens the tone
of the eyes and softens hard lines and
unsightly crows feet, is one of the
latter; but, on the other hand, the
minute hat which sets well down on
the head can be SO fixed and arranged
that 1t will retain its place even In a
high wind. and is undeniably more
comfortable than the large model.

KEEPING POULTRY
FREE FROM LICE
Recipe for Making Ointment Rec
commended by Prof. Graham
Also Kills FleaS.

What many breeders consider bet
ter than powder for killing lice and
mites is an ointment recommended
by Professor w. r. Graham of
Guelph, Canada, one who has made
a life study of poultry in the Domin-
ion.
1t is composed as follows: Mercury.
so parts; lard, 25 parts; beef suet.
2S parts: oleate OF mercury. 2 parts.
The suet, II bought from the butcher,
will have to be rendered over a hre
and poured into the lard while 1t is
warm. and then stir in the mercury
and oleate of mercury. Use a
table knife or spoon to do the
stirring. Do not put hands into
It, Should 1t prove too stif to
easily apply as an ointment, thin with
a little cotton seed oil. All ingredt
ents should be weighed rather than
measured. Put 1t away in small vas
cline bottles or boxes well covered. and
it will keep for months. This ointment
will rid poultry of head lice and Texas
fieas. For other mites and lice rub II
in well about the fluff below the vent
and under the wings. It will not only
kill the live vermin, but destroy the
nits as we'll.
1t is a valuable thing for turkey rails
ers to use on the old and the young.

FOR SERVING TARTAR SAUCE
Idea Put Into Use by One Hostess
Would Seem to Have Many
Good Points.

A good idea for the serving Of tar
tar sauce of mayonnaise is suggested
by one enterpriisng housewife. She
cuts lemon in half, cleans out the In
side thoroughly and then fills the
halves with the sauce. She serves
one to each guest. When fish or sal
nd is served the little lemon cups are
placed around the edge of the platter
and one is taken by each guest. In
this way the sauce is kept firm and
strong instead of melting into liquid
when put on hot plate.
For the home where guests are al
ways arriving and departing there is
nothing quite SO nice for the windows
as white cotton crepe. This may be
simply hemmed or trimmed with ball
fringe. For the dressers and bureaus
covers Of fieece-lined pique will be
found very satisfactory. This may
be cut into the required size and the
edges buttonholed In scallops. Two
sets CT curtains and covers should be
kept OF hand, one in use and a clean
one besides.

Feather Toques.

It seems as though hat made of
feathers should be light, and 30 the
plumage toques are in actual weight:
but they have heavy look. thanks to
their compactness. and this is not be-
coming. Nevertheless they will be
very fashionable. up till Christmas.
and are elready obtainable in many
colors and shapes. Very few of them
have brims. but nearly all belong to
the saucepan, the pudding basin or the
coal scuttle persuasion.
Their only trimming is In nearly
every case a little knot of brilliant
feathers at the side. culled from o
tropic bird.

One day the little girl came running

that mother would have called in q

her handkerchief, wrapped it around
the child's finger, dried her tears, and
told her to run back and play.
The mother of the seven children
happened to be present. When the
little girl had run away she said tc
the other mother. THAT is very dan
gerous way to treat a cut. Do you
usually follow that practice?"
No." replied the other mother: 'l
usually send for the doctor. But
am following your example, and using

The other mother meditated a mo

Never in the history of the draft
horse has the future appeared SO
promising to breeders as now, despite
the statements of leading speaker
at the annual meeting of the State
Veterinarians association at Mime
apolis that the automobile and auto
truck we're driving it opt of busi-
ness. There is no reason. in the light
of statistics, why the doom OF the
draft horse should be spelled by the
auto.
Though the enormous number of
auto-trucks in the cities might lead
one to believe that they were crowd
ing the draft horse out of business.
actual figures do not prove it. Sta
tistics in the Office of the Minnesota
stallion registration board show that
the number of sires used in this state
for horse-breeding has increased from
3,544, May 1, 1910, to 4.445. May 1,
1912. During the same period the
number OF registered draft sires has
increased 35 per cent. there now be-
ing over 1,450 in Minnesota This is
an excellent guide to conditions of
the industry in this state and through
out the country.
Never in the history Of the Chicago
and st. Louis markets, the two larg-
est ones In the United States, has
| the demand been so keen or the
| prices SO high for high class horses
of all sypes, especially the superior
Graft type. Statistics from the U. s
bureau of animal industry show that
the number of horses in this country
has increased from 13.500.000 to 81.
500 600 In the past decade. The value
os all horses in this country has In
creased from $45 to $115 in the same
period. This has occurred despite
the increase In the use of automo
biles.
First class draft horses have beer
almost prohibitive in price this year
because of the great demand for them
and team of drafters has Otter
sold as high as $500 to $1,000. The
demand for high class saddle ant
carriage horses In the eastern cities
has been 80 great that their price'
have been almost prohibitive tt
many who can afford automobiles.
All this should be very encourag
