I the better. ..s
When the cane is ready to cut it
must be stripped which is most easily
done with stick about. three feet
long, sharp on one edge, and round at
the point. A little practice with the
stick will show you how to knock the
blades off. The heads should then be
cut off and the seed saved as it is good
for the horses, cows, hogs, chickens
and pancakes to eat with the syrup.
Bulletin No. ~? says no more cane
should be cut at one time than can be
worked in two days, but the writer s
experience is that if properly handled,
it can be kept for month or more
without deterioration here. It also says
that cane should be cut six or>eight
inches from the ground. No greater
mistake could be made here. The
sacharometer test shows a greater
percentage of sweet in the lower Joints
than anywhere elese in the stalks;
therefore cut as near the ground as
you can. Plan to cut and pile before
dark, all you have stripped and topped.
We cannot approve leaving cane stand
ing or stripped in the field for any
great length of time for where the
leaves are broken off it makes wound
at the joint and fermentation will be.
gin if left long exposed to the warm
sunshine.
Now if you will cut the cane as
directed and pile it about wagon
load in place on poles, lumber or
something to keep it up off the ground,
and allow a free circulation Of air
under it with the butts of stalks to
the north and then cover it two or
three inches with coarse hay or clean
straw it will keep for weeks. It does
not hurt it to freeze if it can be work
ed up as soon as it thaws out before
it has time to ferment and sour. Stored
in well ventilated building, cane
will keep almost indefinitely. But, how
ever you pile or store the cane it
should be handled over about once a
week to prevent too close packing and
insure a circulation of air. Some neigh
borhoods store their cane as we have
said and then leave it till they have
80 ime' to haul it to the mill. That is
poor practice for they will generally
all be ready to take their cane to the
mill about the same time and the mill
cannot work it all at once. Better plan
to keep the mill running steady from
the start.
Most Of the children like to work
with cane (and forget for the time
being that they must be in school get
ting ready to go to the city to get rich
quick doing nothing but having a: good
time) and can do more in properly
planting and weeding than a grown
person. The advantage to the chill
dren is double if working in an in
terested partnership with their par
ents, inasmuch as they obtain practical
knowledge while acquiring habits of
industry which if not acquired in
youth never will be. Probably I should
not speak as I do here but the subject
Of the education of children and the
pig older people too for that matter,
is so intimately connected with our in,

Want chanoeabIe DressesI

At the recent International Congress
of Applied Chemistry In London one
of the most celebrated lecturers, Cha
como Ciamician, predicted that women
Of the future will not be contented
with a dress which remains constantly
Of one color, but will demand colors
that change In harmony with their sur
roundings.
Thus the color Of the apparel may
be changed without changing the
dress. Passing from darkness to light
the color would brighten, thus con
forming automatically to the environ.
ment-the last word In fashion for the
future.
This prediction will come true as
soon as chemists learn to understand
better what are called "~phototropic
colors." or colors that change with
the intensity Of the light upon them.
In mems wear this might mean that
the E~ght-colored suit Of the bright
summer day would be transformed
into a dark suit at night.

NO POSSIBILITY OF DOUBT
Why Western Bishop Was Convinced
of the Ancient Lineage Of His
Eastern Entertainers.

A western bishop once attended a
general convention in the east and
was entertained by a New England
family of long and honorable, II not
lovable, lineage. They made no Sc
cret of a time-won superiority over
any n from the new and crude west,
and cited their Pilgrim ancestors con-
stantly. The bishop was minded to
bear this in Christian humility and
forbearance, and did. But on his re-
turn home, he recounted his expert
ences to the wife; and she. good soul,
spoke her mind as 1t is the privilege
of her kind to do, even where mere
mar must be silent.
Il don't believe that their family
is such an old one." she remarked.

ADVICE FOR THE C0RPULENT
German Physician Says to Cut Out
One Solid Meal From the Menu
for the Day.

One Doctor Galisch, a German ply.
stefan Of Rothenfelde, has devised q
simple drugless method of removing
fat, which, If the doctors claims for 1t
are justified, deserves the attention
of the laity. He declares that he can
shave down the obese man at the rate
of two pounds per week, without In
any way straining his nervous sys.
tenn or heart. There Is, 1t appears, a
theory that fat Is accumulated princi.
pally during sleep, and DR.. Galisch,
pondering this, in connection with an
observation Of his own that corpu.
lent folks usually eat a very hearty
meal. came to the conclusion that an
elimination Of that meal would de.
prive the fat man of his raw material
during sleep, and thus reduce him to
normal proportions.
A very little experimenting justified
this conclusion, he says. and now the
Galisch method has been added to
banting and the other anthfat modes
Of life. DR.. Galisch suggests the fol.
lowing dietetic itinerary for daily use:
First breakfast, bread, butter and tea;
second breakfast 30 a. M, egg and
a small tart, dinner Il p. M, meat
vegetables. salad, preserves; after
loon tea a p. M, coffee, crackers OF
bread and butter, supper (no time
set), one small tart. There appears
to be no quantitive limit for the mid
day meal, 80 the system really
amounts to the elimination of all bu'
one solid meal a day"
