THE DAIRY COW.

II the dairy COW is fed in a hap
hazard way, the results will be IN
satisfactory. If COW is fed an
unbalanced ration, she may pro
duce 1000 pounds of milk during
the year, while on a balance ration,
costing the same as the unbalaDc-
ed one, she may give 5000 or
more pounds. Thousands of ex-
psrimenrs have so forcefully de
monstrated the advantages Of a
properly balanced ration, that the
dsiryman cannot afford to be lax
10 his feeding operations.
The dairyman should also re.
member that individual cows re-
ouire different amounts of specific
elements as well as I'D varying
proportions, hence, each animal
should be studied.

UNDERSTOOD ALL THE REST
On Only One Comparatively Unimpor-
taat Point Was the Juror
at Fault.

It quite often happens that in adj
dressing a jury, the lawyers will de-
liver their appeals to the one member
who seems to them the most intelli-
gent. They consider that by so doing
they can impress him and his intiu-
enee upon the other members will be
valuable.
In a recent case, all the testimony
had been taken, the lawyers had
summed up and the judge had charged
the jury, when the juror who ap-
peared the most intelligent, and to
whom both counsel had made their
impassioned appeal, arose, and stated
that he wished the court to give him
some information.
q have been bothered great deal,
he said, about two words the law
yers have been using all the time.
what are they?" asked the court,
expecting to be called upon to ex-
plain the meaning of some words
like res inter altos acta."

common to see business and PROBES

they smoked at all they smoked ci-

ALL SORTS OF HINTS.
IDEAS PASSED FROM ONE HOUSE.
KEEPER TO ANOTHER.
For Quick Removal Of Ink Stalns-To
Curl Feather Properly and Quick
iy-Ecouomical Substitute for
the Ordinary Starch.

To Remove Ink Stains.-Having
found out another method for taking
out ink stains, ! pass il on to others
Rub the ink stains on linen with a
ripe tomato cut in half, and the stains
viii disappear when the article is
washed. l also find tomato very good
for taking the ink stains out of dark
cloth, sponging with cold rain water
after using.
How 70 Curl a Feather-If you
would like to know how to curl a
feather, YOU will find the following
very good: Sprinkle the feather with
salt, then shake in front of a hot fire.
To Preserve Gas Manifesto make
gas nantes last longer and to give
them more brilliant light when they
are new, find it very good to i'm
merse them in glass of vinegar for
minute, and then hang them up and
thoroughly dry before using.
Baking Hint-Here is a discovery
which has been of great help to me:
When making fruit pies, to keep them
from boiling over, make a funnel of
creased paper and place it in the cen
ter of the pie
To Clean a Mackintosh-For clean
ing macintosh / find the following
method excellent: Dip the garment
first in cold water, then with scrub
bling brush and yellow soap proceed
to scrub it all over, having spread it
fiat on table. When the dirt is re-
moved dip the cloak in repeated wa
tiers until free from suds, but do not
wiring it. When finished, hang 1t up
in the air to dry, or In an airy room
but not near a fire.
To Remove Varnish Stains.-Hav-
ing made discovery in removing var
nish stains from white goods, l pass
1t on to others: Moisten the stain
with ammonia, then put on a few
drops of turpentine and roll it up
/ When this Is finished, leave it rolled
up for about Is or 20 minutes. Then
wash out with soapy water, rinsing
well, and dry in the sun.
For the Misunderstanding discoy
cred a good substitute for starch that
will not stick to the clothes or rot
them, | pass it on to others: Wash
and rinse the clothes as usual, then

CLEANING CLOTHES At HOME
Some Simple Methods That Win Pro-
duce Results Equal to Those Of
the Professional.

We all now need so many articles
of wearing apparel that the problem
pf keeping them clean has grown to
be a serious one indeed. to those who
find it expedient to do some of their
own cleaning rather than send all to
Il professional cleaner.
Grease is the most common Of all
spots.
1t may be removed in either OF
three ways-by absorption. emulsion
or by the use of soap. and hot water.
The soap and hot water process NAV
be applied to all small articles that
can be Numbered in the usual manner.
and should require but little trouble.
Large articles and such fabrics as
cannot be Numbered may be treated
by absorption. Fresh grease spots
may often be entirely removed by a
melting process alone. Place pieces
of white blotting paper over and IN
der the spot and press with warm
iron.
If the fabric is such that the heat
will affect the color, cold absorption,
with French chalk as tke absorbent.
can be used. Pniverize the chalk,
cover the spot thiekly with it, and al.
low 1t to stand for several hours.
Then brush off with a soft brush II
necessary apply it a second time.
This chalk may also be applied by
mixing 1t to a paste with henzine. ap-
plying it in that form, and brushing
It when thoroughly dry.
In cases of large grease spots OF
long standing it is best to use a sol
vent of grease, such as alcohol. ehloro-
form, ether. benzine or naphtha Ben
zine and naphtha are the best for
woolens, while ether and ehloroform
are best for silk. and may be used in
the most delicate fabrics. thick

VALUE OF PROPER SPELLING
Attribute Highly Valued in CONNER
clal Life, ard Is a Sense to
Be Developed.

Good spelling and intelligent pune
tuation are the accomplishments that
keep many gray-haired women draw
ing good salaries as stenographers in
downtown Offices. The manager OF a
typewriting office from which are sent
hundreds of stenographers makes no
secret Of the fact that good spoilers
are scarce.
We had q customer come in the
other day" said the manager, who
had evidently had a run of hard luck
in the spelling line He wanted a
woman Who could spell. No matter
if she's eross-eyed and has a huneh
on her back, he said, If she can spell
and write an intelligent letter. While
this was a rather extreme case it
shows that employers are beginning
to grow impatient over the careless
spelling of today"
Another office sending out many ste
nographers has a series of test le ers
prepared especially with spelling
catches for the unwary. Common
words, famous as pitfalls for careless
spoilers, are strewn throughout these
specimen letters. Fully half the ap-
plicants put an extra e in separate;
in many cases the before the last
syllable in noticeable is missing, while
the correct placing of the Is in the
word parallel reduces many of the
applicants to a state of discourage
ment.
Good spelling is a pretty sure sign
of mental alertness," said a business
man with several offices and many
stenographers. Il find that if one OF
our stenographers is naturally good
speller she is interested in the cor
rect spelling and use of new words
that come to her attention in reading
or in dictation. Now as a matter OF
fact it is no small job to keep up with
the spelling of the hundreds of new
words.
Our oldest stenographer and OIL,
best speller keeps on her desk a lit
tie book not more than an inch thick
but it has more first aids to poor spell
| ers than anything I've ever seen. She
| doesn't use 1t much. but everybody
| else does. Chicago Record-Herald-

CURTAINS ARE WORTH CARE
Their Usefulness May Be Prolonged
With a Little Pecaution at

When doing up fine curtains the

old sheets sewed together, on which
carefully haste the curtains. After
shaking out the dust. soak in cold
water Put in suds and boil. Gently
lift up and down in the water Rinse

rabbit Drives" Advocated.

The western farmer dislikes the
coyote, and a bounty is offered for
its pelt; the result is that the coyotes
have greatly diminished. But, says
the Portland Oregonian, the killing OF
the coyotes has resulted in great
increase of rabbits; many expert
ments have been made to diminish
their number by inoculating them with
disease, but without satisfactory re-
suits. Rabbit drives" are the only
sure remedy; 10000 jack rabbits were
killed in one county in Oregon In
this way last winter.
