No man who understands his busi-

on wet or muddy dirt floors.
When selecting sheep for breeding
beware of the long-legged. rangy
breeds. Get those that are close to

When pastures get short the sheep
will eat the roots of the grass right

kept in one lot. Better feed some
grain and save the grass.
Ever notice that the pastures where
sheep are kept grow better grass than
those used for horses or cows?

Every foal should be the product OF

Every farmer should aim to mate
Inly suitable sires and dams for the

DO NOT OVERLOOK
SUPPLY Of HUMUS
Particularly Necessary Where
Commercial Fertilizers Are
Used With Green Crops.

Except on soils nearly or quite vir-
gin, there are few farms where hu-
mus cannot be used by the soil to
great advantage. In many sections
where commercial fertilizers have been
used for years. to the exclusion Of sta
BILE manures. it has been found neces-
sary to grow green crops for plowing
under. Where the green crops are
used as a part OF the rotation, SO to
speak. the exclusive use OF CONNER
cial fertilizers can probably be safely
continued.
The best results come from the
combined use OF stable manures and
commercial manures. using the former
for plowing under in the spring and
the latter for top-dressing or working
In just under the surface as the crop
grove. In this manner the humus re-
quired by the soil is supplied and the

is a somewhat radical departure from
present-day fashions. It is OF white
satin. brocaded with silver. and is
made without trimming or elaboration.
The skirt is faring and full, hanging
in set folds. The absence Of shoulder
straps. the pointed bodice and short.
pulled sleeves revive memories of the
days of the Renaissance. After much
elaboration 1t seems severely simple.
But there is a reaction toward sim
plicity which, 1t must be conceded. has
improved the styles of today.

derskirt and long, full tunic, and bids
fair to stand in the first place by
