SLIPPERS OF BROcADED SATIN

the shops are showing dainty slippers

are rather expensive If your desire to.

at n~eedlework they can be duplicated
at home for very much less.
First purchase a pair Of soles the
required size and bind them with a
fancy silk braid Of the predominatipg
color used In the brocade. When
choosing the brocade select a design
which will look well OF the top OF the
foot.
From heavy muslin cut a piece Of
material to form the toe portion the
slipper. This must at smoothly to the
sole and\be able enough to comfort
ably accommodate the foot.
Using this as a guide, cut two sim
liar pieces from the brocaded satin
and haste the two together. Outline
the design with twisted silk OF the
same tone and improve the slipper
toe by embroidering tiny flowers here
and there. To the back OF the muslin

bind the top with braid to match the
soles. Join the toe portion to the
soles with strong silk thread, whip
stitching the two together.
They are quickly made and the re-
suit speaks for itself.

thse slippers from brocaded satin OF

as to what farm management methods
can be pursued To- eliminate or reduce
to a minimum the weed pests of the

cultivation are designed primarily TO
produce q mulch and stir the ground
Weed killing is q secondary function
II Is possible that newly designed im>

this end with greatly decreased

Tia summln8 up the results Of the
experiments Of the 125 corn growers,
it Is shown that the woeded plats pro
duced 95.l per cent. as much fodder
and 99.lO8 per cent as much grain az
the cultivated ones. III there was any

Ia regard to thoroughness in keeping

Walalts
that in most soils moisture a be
saved by maintaining the top portion
Of the soil in a finely divided condi-
ton. It has also been found that fire.
quent stirring Of the soil promotes
rapid n~itrihcati0n. It would seem to
follow, naturally, that a system OF
cultivation which promotes nitrihca-
ton and %conserves moisture would
be an extremely valuable system to
apply to a titled crop. In practice It
has been found that in most cases fire.
quent shallow cultivation gives better
yields than other methods Of corn
tillage. Upon this experience tillage
philosophy has been developed and
tillage practice based.
To ascertain the ideal method of
cultivation for corn In various sec
tions Of the country, experiments ag-
gregating 1875 and scattered over %
states, were conducted. These ex-
periments were simply removing the
weeds without stirring the soil or pro
ducing a mulch. as against corn culti-
walton. The measure Of the relative
merits Of the two systems was, not
In the preservation Of soil moisture
or the effect on n%itrihcation, or the
making available Of plant nutrients,
but the relative yields Of corn pro
duced.
These tests seem to indicate that it
is the weed factor which makes the
cultivation Of corn necessary, or.
stating the proposition conversely,
that cultivation is not beneficial to
the corn plant, except insofar as re-
moving the weeds are concerned.
The reasons why uncultiVated land
kept free from weeds should yield
practically as much corn per acre az
that given the most approved modern
cultivation are not clear. The results
however, point strongly to the con.
clusion that the principal object Of
cultivation is the destruction Of weeds
Where the weeds are kept down By
some other method cultivation seems
to be Of no particular advantage. This
Is contrary to the accepted teaching
on this point, and the conclusion "a

See that the fowls have cool fresh
drinking water at all times. Keep
down lice and mites. as many Of the
deaths during the melting period are
caused by these pests and not on ac-
count Of any hardship attending the
noting process, as many people sup
pose. Provide dust baths in which the
fowls may wallow whenever they
want to.
