is plain, with the fronts fulled in "a

shoulder, and a plain turnover collar
finishes the neck.
Plain machine stitching finishes all

The present margin of profit in fat.
tening cattle for market is SO narrow

inadvisable to feed steers without fol

Interesting figures on this subject
have been obtained by the United
States department of agriculture from
"a Iowa farms. These farms were all
managed by men of undoubted expert
ence in raising cattle A careful &C.
counting system was adopted and rig
idly followed.
The experiments began with the
feeding year beginning in the fall of
1909. Prices at this time were very
satisfactory and the 961 cattle raised
made an average profit of $2.05 per
head. These steers were followed by
1904 hogs which were given extra
grain. The hogs were sold in the
spring of 1910 at an average profit
of $6.67 per hog. If this Profit is
credited to the steers, each steer
shows profit of s12.49. In the fol-
lowing feeding year, however, 1910 to
1911. the outcome was different.
Prices were unsatisfactory and the
1,13s cattle were fed at an average
loss for the year of 70 cents head.
Nevertheless the 1876 hogs following
the steers turned this loss into a
profit. The hogs netted an average
profit Of 1888. Crediting this to the
steers we have net profit per steer
Of $4.04.
Opinions differ on the number of
hogs that 1t is well to have follow the
steers. When corn is cheap many
farmers feed. the steers more corn
than they can eat and run extra hogs
which consume the waste. With high

IF YOU are casting about for inexpen-
/ sive Christmas gifts there is hardly
anything that makes as good a show
ing, for the smallest outlay, as the
little serving apron. OF course these
small bits of dainty apparel may be
made of fine materials, trimmed with
the more costly lingerie laces, and
elaborated into expensive affairs, but
these will not be any more pleasing
than palmer aprons which are equally
dainty and are made of inexpensive
cotton fabrics trimmed with sheer en-
broideries or the cheaper laces.
The weaving Of cotton into exquisite
fabrics that cost little has placed a
world of opportunities at the hand of
the needle woman. All the fine cot
ton lawns, plain and printed, dotted
mulls and swiss, plain and printed
voiles, fancy nets and cotton mar
qufsette are in line with fancy weaves
to make the frivolous little accessories
Of dress and the airy house and party
gowns which women are privileged to
wear. Everyone Of them is available
for the serving apron and for the
morning cap.
There As saving in buying enough
material to cut several aprons, and
they may be made of short lengths or
pieces or remnants, because the body
Of the apron is often cut in panels that
are set together with narrow val lace.
Short lengths of embroidery serve for
edgings, because they are put on with
out fullness. A pocket, decked out
with a small bow or rosette, is an
establishment and comes in handy
for the lace-bordered handkerchief.
Since 1t is 80 much the vogue for
the daughters Of the house, little and
big, or for the young hostess, to serve

priced grain, however. this can hard
ly be recommended. A convenient
rule, according to the department Of
agriculture, is to figure on one shoat.
per steer when shelled corn Is fed
and two when ear corn. In any cir
cumstances there should be enough
hogs provided to clean up all the
waste corn.
Another convenient basis Of calcu-
lation is to estimate that when one
third of a bushel of corn is fed a
steer approximately three-fourths Of
a pound of pork will be obtained.
With ear corn the gains are greater
but on the other hand corn meal or
corn and cob meal yields very little
pork since it is much better utilized
by the steer. It seems indeed to be
proved that the diet which is most
efficient for steers is the less so for
hogs and vice versa.
It is customary to feed the hogs
corn in addition to that which they
obtain from the droppings. When
this is done the hogs should always
be fed separately and preferably be-
fore the steers in order not to annoy
the latter.
Farmers bulletin 5ss, Economical
Cattle Feeding in the Corn Belt" in
which these questions are discussed,
emphasizes the desirability of paving
feed lots when hogs are following cat
tie. It has been definitely shown, say
the government specialists, that hogs
make nearly one pound more of pork
on paved lots for each bushel of corn
fed the steers. With pork at six
cents pound this item alone will
amount to about $3.50 steer. In ad-
dition the risk of immediate loss must
be taken into consideration. This
sometimes compels the farmer to ship
his cattle before they are ready and
the loss he incurs in one year may
we'll be more than the cost of paving
the lot.
