EARTH'S MOST SACRED SPOT

is adorned with the most elaborate
embroideries, the work of royal prin-
cesses, while from the ceiling hang a
number OF brass lamps and few

PREPARE STOCK FOR MARKET
More Growth the First Year Than
seeond-keep Pushing.

In preparing stock for the market
too much stress cannot be laid upon
rapid development of the animal. Elk
perience has shown that in proportion
TO the food consumed by young ami
mails. there is more growth the first
year than the second. and more the
second year than the third, and with
each increasing year the increase in
weight gets smaller in proportion tc
the amount of food consumed, conse
quently II is very essential that all
young animals be kept thrifty and
growing, especially is this true with
all animals intended for market. This
is seen in the production of baby beef
which is one of the most profitable
businesses to engage In. A quick
growth, and an early maturity. returns
the best profit among cattle, swine
sheep and poultry. The intelligent
farmer, in preparing his stock for
market, should always bear In mind
the importance of pushing his stock
from the time they are born until
placed on the market. Every day
should see a gain in weight along the
lines of profit. yet at the same time
this crowding should not be overdone
There Is danger of injuring animals by
overlooking, especially when young. IL
however, the feed rations are properly
made, looking toward just enough and
not too little, or to much good results
may be expected In the end.

The chances are that in the many
new coiffures which have been de-
signed for this season the ears will be
wholly or partly covered. Light fringes
over the forehead. middle and side
parts, hair coiled high or low, but al.
ways waved. and little, short, full
curls are in evidence everywhere For
popularity the high couture promises
to be the winner in the race for favor
Much depends upon the styles in

For evening wear, and especially
where hats are removed, or not worn
at all, Miladi may wave and curl and
coil and pile up her browning glory to
her hearts content. Also her couture
ornament or evening head dress may
be as elaborate as any OF which we
have a history. Some of those design
ed for wear In Paris are said to be
twenty-eight inches in height, which
is something over two feet, you know
But the Parisiennes have a certain
grace in carrying of extremes which
is peculiar to them, their stock-in-trade

When he realizes that nothing what
