These patterns are transferred by the hot iron process, which is the simplest method that has yet been devised for effecting perfect transfer. All that is necessary is to lay the pattern on the material and press over the entire surface with a hot iron when a perfect transfer will result.
 A design suitable for embroidering the front of a waist or gown with background of the new Rhodus Embroidery or Punched Work or of French knots.
 Genuine Rhodus embroidery consists of outlining the figures and making a per- forated lace-like background, but the flowers and leaves can be worked in solid embroidery with the stems outlined. When French knots are used for the background, the flowers and flower centers can be worked as eyelets with the leaves made solidly and the stems outlined, or the entire design can be worked in eyelet work with the stems only outlined.
 To make French knots, wind the thread two or three times around the needle and to the thread, then pull through to the under side.
 Thin material such as chiffon, voie, marquisctte and lawn are suitable for the Rhodus embroidery. For chiffon, etc., use medium weight silk floss for the back ground and rope silk for the outline stitch. For wash goods, such as handkerchief linen, use coarse embroidery cotton for the outlining and fine linen thread for the punch work.

FREE TREES Fer NORTH
DAKOTA FARMERS

Mandan, N. D., Sept 11.-Free trees
for farmers is a plan that will be
worked out at the Great Plains expert
mental station, near this city, the COM
ing five years. w. A. Peterson, super
intendent, and Max Pfander, horticul-
turist of the station, have just returned
from Saskatchewan, Canada, where the
Canadian government conducts big
tree nursery, free trees being given to
the farmers of western Canada.
The plan employed by the United
States department of agriculture at
! the station here will be about the same
as that used in Canada. Farmers re-
ceiving the trees agree to give certain
attention to their growth.
The Canadian government distribut-
ed only 10000 trees annually from its
station at Indian Head, Sask., which is
the principal nursery, but it is pro-
posed to make an annual distribution
of at least $4,000 from the Mandan
station.

siLo AND slLAGE SUGGESTIONS.
(Ry E. A. GreenwoOd.)

With the prospects for feed prices
being high for the coming year,
every effort should be made to
secure the corn crop in the best pos
sible manner.
Farmers having silos are most for
tunate in that they will be relieved
from the difficulty of shocking corn
that has been badly twisted and
broken down by wind storm and in be-
ing able to store the corn crop where
it can be most conveniently and econ
omically utilized. The silo makes it
comparatively easy for the farmer to
secure his corn crop in the best pos.
sible manner.
There are however, a few rules
which should be carefully observed.
Here are some Of the most important:
Do not be in too great hurry to
cut the corn. When more nearly ma
tured the stalks contain a greater
amount of feed.
Begin cutting when a majority of
the ears are nicely glazed and ordi-
narily about ready to put into the
shock. Only when the corn is hurt by
frost or badly burned by drought
should it be cut sooner for silage.
Otherwise, it is better to let it become
over ripe and add water while it is be.
! ing run into the silo than to cut it be-
fore it has ripened sufficiently. Where
lit is necessary to add water it can be
done conveniently by running it, by
means of an inch pipe, into the blower
or into the carrier during the time of
filling.
Properly distribute and tramp the
corn we'll as it is run into the silo
The surface of the corn in the silo
during the process of filling should be
kept slightly higher and most thor
oughly tramped at the edges where
the friction of the wall tends to pre-
vent its settling as fast as it settles In
the center. This practice makes the
silage of uniform character, tends tc
insure against loss by mold and also
insures a greater amount of corn being
put into the silo. For week after the
'silo has been filed, the surface should
be thoroughly tramped at sufficient in
.tervals to keep it we'll packed which
will prevent loss from the top Of the
silo when it is opened. Leave door on
roof open.
Until the heating and fermentation
is over, the silo should be we'll venti'
lated.
Cutting stalks in one-half inch
lengths insures the greatest amount
of silage being eaten by cows as they
otherwise refuse and waste the coars-
er portion of the stalks.

an arrival in Yerington Thursday He
is looking over this section with
view of investment, and went out yes
terday to look over the Smith Valley
Mines Company's property, returning
very enthusiastic. He thinks it is a
big property. The doctor is large
land owner in the Sacramento Valley
in California, and like Others who
have never seen the Mason Valley
section, thinks that section of the
coast about the only place. What he
has seen of this valley has changed
his opinion somewhat-it looks mighty
good to him here.

Operation for Appendicitis.

On Sunday night of this week Dr.
Brown, assisted by Drs Leavitt and
Knox performed an operation for ap-
pendicitis on Mrs. Josie Parker at the
Yerington hospital The patient is now
recovering rapidly and will soon be
able to return to her home in the low
er end of the valley. The .operati-n
wals quite a deIcate one /and had ii
been done in Reno, San Francisco, or
some outside place would have caused
considerable favorable comment on
the ability of the operators. Yering-
ington now has, we believe, as efficient
staff of physicians and surgeons as
there is in any town in the State, or
any other State, for that matter, and
a hospital that can give the best of
accommodations The people of this
community and the surrounding dis
trict should be thankful for this, as in
case of sickness or accident it is well
to know that the best of treatment
can be obtained right at home, with
out the expense of travelling to some
distant place and being under heavy
expense and away from friends and
relatives in time of trouble.
