HOW TO ATTAIN PLUMPNEss
Simple Routine Will Enable Thin Girl to Secure Results In Three
 or Four Weeks.

The thin girl Is coming into her own these days, but there is such thing as being too thin. The words of Jo- seph Cawthorne, q like 'em plump" set the standard. This plumpness can be obtained by careful effort
 The first step towards this is to avoid nerves, fretting and irritability.
 Retire early and remain in bed as long as possible.
 Drink no tea or coffee, rather milk. cocoa or chocolate. Take mashed po- tatoes, with butter or cream, oatmeal, fresh bread, honey eggs, tapioca; in short, all sugary and oily foods. No meat
 Take great care to eat slowly and masticate each morsel thoroughly.
 A nap either before or after dinner is beneficial.
 Exercise must be regular and mod crate Horseback riding, tennis and boating are good. Vocal exercises enlarge the chest.
 Small doses of cod liver oil should be taken several times day.
 With strict application of these rules an improvement should be noted in three or four weeks.

METHOD OF DEH0RNlNG CALF
Caustic Potash Applied to Button Whom 1t Can Be Felt Will Save
 Much Bother Later On,

Unless the horn buttons" are re- moved from many thousands of calves when they are from week to ten days old there will be big job later on when the dehorning has to be done. It is in reality cruel business. Why not apply caustic potash to the but ton as soon as it can be felt-thusr doing yourself as we'll as the calf a favor.
 Before applying the potash remove all hair from about the horns close to the skin. The potash is moistened slightly and rubbed over the skin which covers the point of the horns until skin is white. One application of potash, if properly applied, is suf- ficient to prevent the growth of the horn. To avoid injury to the opera tors hands, wrap the potash in a. heavy paper. The potash should not be moistened too much or the liquid will run over the calfs face and cause unnecessary pain. One stick of pot ash, if preserved, will serve to de- horn several calves.

WOMAN OPPOSES SUFFRAGE
Claims Effort to Get a Popular En- dorsement Has Been a Failure.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Washington.-In protest against the latest request of woman suffrage leaders for an audience with Presi- dent Wilson to ask his support for a constitutional suffrage amendment, Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge, president Of the National Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage, addressed a letter to the president Saturday.
 Mrs. Dodge wrote that the attempt of the suffragists to get popular en- dorsement at the last election had 'been dismal failure" and protest ed, "in the name of 20,000,0O0 mature women in America, who are not suf- fragists," against national legislation ''that would nullify the expressed will Of the majority of men and women in the separate states to decide this is- sue according to the constitutional provisions"
 The blacklist against senators and congressman was suffrage boom- erang," wrote Mrs. Dodge; "the war on Democrats another. Their failure in national convention to get the sup port of suffrage states was third proof of their political poverty And the well-known indifference of most women who have the ballot to use it at all. much less at the dictation Of Lt, age leaders, is final demonstra- tion that the National American Wo- man Suffrage Association is not a po- litical power, but mere state of mind with small nervous but noisy fraction of women who are discon- tented with the democracy that has made the United States the greatest among the nations of the earth"

EXCELLENT FEED FOR COWS
Especially Desirable f~ Fall and Early Winter as They Are PaIa-
 table and Stimulate Milk Flow.

(By T. l.. HAECKER, University Farm,
 St. Paul. Minn.)
 Roots are excellent feed for dairy cows and are especially desirable for the fall and early winter, as they are palatable, easy to digest, and stimu- late the flow of milk. They az@s aspe- cially effective with COWS t Ssh- ened in the spring, and whd Eof milk has been depressed dla, 5 the summer because of annoyance by flies and mosquitoes and unfavorable pasture condition. If such are given liberal supply of roots when brought to stall feeding, the flow of milk is often materially increased. Less grain Is required while roots are be- ing fed. The change from roots to more grain should be made gradually, adding grain at the rate of one pound for ten pounds of roots withdrawn

BUYING A GOOD DAIRY COW
First Consideration Is Whether Ani- nal Is Persistent Milker-Ribs
 Are an Important Guide.

The first thing to consider in buy ing dairy COW is whether she is a persistent milker or not, for no mat ter how much milk she may give or how rich her milk may be, she will not be profitable if she goes dry more than two months, and I should prefer that she should not go dry over one month, says writer in Western Farmer.
 The only way to judge accurately is to try her, but her general form will indicate very closely what may be expected. She should have 8 broad and we'll formed pelvic arch, incurved borns, we'll arched Hanks, large barrel, wide udder in front and reaching up we'll behind, milk veins large and sinuous, and milk wells large and open. The ribs are an im- portant guide. They should be we'll sprung and far apart; the latter indi- cates that she is not inclined to lay on fat. The tail should be small. A large f1eshy tail usually belongs to a beefy animal.
 Above all, the head should show an intelligent, gentle expression. A COW of bad disposition is almost sure to

 Hay for baling should be thoroughly dry and free from mustiness. Let the sheep clean up the weeds in the fields and around the fences. Long straw manure should be piled and each layer plastered so it will rot quickly.
 If good mules are to be raised. the right kind of mares must be selected to breed from.
 If your wax beans are free from spot or anthracnose, save some of the beans for seed.

fBv W. & ANDERsON1

(By w. S. ANDERSON)
 The question is often asked con- cerning the value of coat color in horses. There seems to be among some breeders the idea that strength or endurance goes with the color of the animal.
 There is no semblance of truth in the traditional ideas of this nature There is no evidence that points of value are in any way connected with the inheritance of coat color. The factors or determiners which control the transmission of color, so far as we have been able to discover, are independent of all other qualities. The color itself is no indication of a good horse or of worthless one
 It is usually considered that black color is the one essential for a mule, but some of the best spans of mules in the country are gray, and we know of some valuable dun-colored mules.
 The statement cannot be too en- phatic that speed, intelligence, vigor and other good traits are inherited independent of color. While it is true that the color is indication of the real value of the horse there are those who care for one color more than for others. This is true when spans are needed. It is imperative that they be of the same color and the same shade if they are to be matched There should be no great difficulty in breeding horses for any desired color.
 The laws governing the heredity of colors promise to be of the greatest value of an indication of the method for further research for the laws con- trolling the transmission of gait, speed, style, stamina conformation, in- telligence, docility, and all the quail ities which add value to the horse
 The breeding of horses can be put upon a more scientific basis. There are small bodies, or chromosomes, in the germ cells which determine what the color shall be. It is only fair inference that there are similar deter. miners in the germ cells for the trans

PRUNING TREES IN WINTER
Where Branches of Any Size Are to Be Removed Work Should Be
 Done While in Dormant State.

Many inquiries are being received at the Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical college relative to the proper time of year to prune fruit trees. In answer to these inquiries, Professor N. O. Booth of the depart ment of horticulture, gives the follow ing advice:
 Fruit trees, and, in fact, all trees, should be pruned during the winter at the time when the trees are thor oughly dormant. Most fruit growers will trim off sprouts, starting at the foot of tree or the trunk whenever the sprouts are seen, regardless of the season. Where branches of any size are to be removed the work should be done during the winter.
 Tn case the trees are tender, such as peach trees, apricot trees, etc., the pruning should be done in the latter part of the winter, after all danger of freezing is over.
 Tt is mistake to prune cherry trees, except to keep sprouts away from the foot of the tree and from growing on the trunk The only prun- ing that cherries should ever receive is that given at the time of setting."
The Green Forest tribune., 1914-12-04

mission of every valuable trait The physical basis of heredity rests in the small bodies, or chromosomes, within the nucleus of the germ cells. There appears to be separate body for each quality whether it is from mans point of view, good or bad. The phys ical basis for traits are called factors or determiners. The horse, like all complex living organisms, is made up of unit characters, some desirable, some undesirable. For man some thing like twenty-five hundred traits /or units have been catalogued. The laws governing the transmission of many of the human traits have been formulated.
 Our studies show the colors of horses to be unit characters and that they behave as simple Mendelian units. That is, they do not blend so as to lose their identity; but the weak CT or recessive ones disappear alto gether in the external appearance of the horse, while the factors for them remain latent in the germ plasm. We call gray dominant because a pure bred gray mated with bay, black or chestnut, will invariably produce a gray foal. While gray foal will all ways come from such mating the foal will be hybrid gray and part of it's germ cells will contain the factor for gray and a part for the bay, if the other parent was bay.
 A most interesting fact concerning recessive trait like bay is that when it is produced from parents one or both of which possesses in their coat color dominant color like gray, the bay foal can in no way transmit the gray of its ancestry. The reason for this is pure bred gray produces germ cells all of which carry the factor for gray. The pure bred bay can only produce germ cells with the bay de- terminer When a hybrid gray foaI comes from one gray and one bay parent it can produce two distinct kind of germ cells. One kind con- tains a determiner for gray, the other kind factor for bay

VOGUE OF ARTIFICIAL FLOWER
Universally Popular, and Certainly Add Distinction to the PIainest
 of the Street Frocks.

Probably never before have artifi- cial flowers had such vogue as they have just now. And small corsage flower is one of the best means of giving color to dark street frock or suit.
 There are punches of tiny flowers in brilliant red that are very good. There are bouquets consisting of a rosebud, a few forget-me-nots and 8 sprig or two of green that are good. Then there are zinnias, nasturtiums, poppies and many other flowers in their own natural, rich coloring.
 The placing of the flower Is rather important. It can be placed on the left shoulder with good effect. It looks well at the closing of a ruff or close collar of velvet and fur.
 Of course, the flower on an evening frock is usually part of the frock. That is to say, it is placed in position when the frock Is made. However, frock that needs little refreshing can be frightened up with new flower, and one of the newest places to put 1t is about half way down the back.

OF 0RGANDIE AND B0BBINET
One of the smartest Designs In Col lars, Copying the Sailor Shape to
 Large Extent.

Smarter than the elaborate lace col lar is that of plain white organdie and bobbinet The collar is to be of the laydown variety, and is smartest when shaped like short but long pointed sailor collar. the points coming well on the shoulders. The collar, which is of organdie, is hemstitched about the edge. The net ruffle should be from one-half to one and one-fourth inches wide, and is double. That is, there Is no hem on the net, it being simply a double fold of the material, the creased end being used as the bottom or edge of the ruffle. The bobbinet ruffle may be simply whipped to the collar, or after this is done a finish of buttonholing in color or plain white thread can be made over the joining of collar and ruffie These dainty collars buttonholed in old blue, old rose or that gray-green are pretty indeed.
