Careless Buying
Means High Prices
Woman Should Be as Careful
in Her Housekeeping as
Man in Business.

| If YOU are truly anxious to do vour
| share in keeping down prices and in
guarding against waste and eXtrava-
gance, do not buy carelessly. This
should be cardinal principle for
| housewives. A man who is wasteful
and careless in his business and who
allows himself TO be cheated left and
right is properly looked down upon bv
other men as being inefficient and a
bad business man. Among housewives.
however this standard Of business eff
cheney, unfortunately. does not prevail.
The hOusekeeper who is stupid, care
less or inefficient in her dealings with
tradesDeople is not held up to a strict
standard If her table is good and
her bills fairly moderate, she is judged
specifically to be a good housekeeper.
But this is very superficial judg-
ment, indeed, for, unless a woman
buys with care and eXactitude, selects
what she wants and knows exactly the
quality and quantity she is getting and
paying for, she is by no means efficient
or business like. She is on the con-
trary, directly encouraging waste and
dishonesty in the manufacturer the
retailer and the farmer for which
waste and dishonesty the careless
hOUsekeeper is directly responsible. If
the buyer has no standard she must
not expect the dealer to have one.
Don't buy carelessly! Always ask
for whatever commodity you are pur-
chasing by a known weight or meas
ure. DO not ask for five cents worth
or a basketful, a glass, q bottle, or a
tubful. These terms mean nothing
in law; and, as the law compels a
dealer to sell you the full measure of
any stated measure you ask for, you
should demand this protection, and
ask definitely for a quart bottle of
olives rather than q bottle of olives
Don't allow the grocer to weigh
your butter, lard. etc, in a wooden
dish. These dishes weigh from one to
three ounces, according to their size,
and you are, therefore, paying for that
much wood at the price of butter.
Don't let the butcher weigh your
meat and then trim il and charge you
for the trimmings that he keeps. Ask |
fer the trimmings that you have paid |
for. The fat can be rendered into lard /
and the bones used in soup. The /
butcher knows that they have a value, /
for when you do not take them he /
resells them for six or seven cents a /
pound. Do not be afraid to ask for |
what is your due and to demand hon
esty and full measure.

LESS WASTE WITH RoUGHAGE
When Given to Sheep on Ground IL 10
Trampled Upon-Racks Have
Proved Entirely Satisfactory.
(By e. l.. sHAw.A

It Is hardly necessary to say that
there is less waste when roughage Is
fed to sheep in racks rather than
upon the ground. When fed in the lat
ter way much Of it is trampled upon
and soiled and then the sheep refuse
to eat 1t.
There are several types of feed
racks that are quite satisfactory. A
combination rack for feeding both
roughage and grain is convenient, es-
pecially where the amount of space Is
limited. Some racks are boarded up
solidly, with openings through which
the sheep eat; others are Slated hori-
zontally. this type being largely used
in the west.
Racks with vertical Stats are also
used; these Stats should not be too
wide apart with sucking ewes or the
lambs will get in upon the feed and
soil it. Having the upper part Of the
rack boarded solid is desirable, as it
prevents char from falling into the
fleece.

Mare and FoaI.

by weight Quantity to feed depends
on size of mare), with what hay they
will eat, Is an excellent ration. 1t Is
advisable to feed but one-half the grain
ration when 1t becomes apparent that
mare will foal within forty-eight
hours. Shortly after the mare has
foaled, drink of lukewarm water
should be given her. The same ration
fed prior to foaling is usually satisfac-
tory after foaling.
When it is possible, the mare should
foal in dry, well-lighted and bedded
box stall or in clean grass lot. II
she foals in box stall, it should be
thoroughly cleaned and disinfected
with a five per cent solution of car
bolic acid before she enters it. A light
covering of air-slaked lime on the floor
underneath the bedding is very prac-
tical safeguard against navel trou-
BILE.
After she has foaled 1t is advisable
to clean the stall Immediately, disin-
feet again and bed thoroughly. AS q
preventive of navel and joint disease
In the foal, saturate its navel as soon
as possible with a FIVE per cent soIu-
ton of lysol or other disinfectant. To
prevent blistering the colts belly
smear the parts at the base of the
navel board with vaseline or unsalted
lard before applying the disinfectant.

sea. The police find that Hornby is a
fraud and the Lola's name false one.

don Gregg is trapped nearly to his death
by a former servant, Olinto, who repents
in time to save him, but not to give rea-
son for his treachery. Visiting in Dunn
fries Gregg meets Muriel Leithcourt,
who is strangely affected at the mention
of the Lola. Horribly appears. Muriel in

CARING FOR MARE AND FoAL.
Whole Oats, Corn and Bran Are Prae.
ticaI Concentrates to Feed-Stall
Should Be Well Cleaned.

By E. 81. HUGHES, Missouri Expert
ment Station.)
Mares In foal should receive regu-
lar exercise up to the time of foaling.
It is advisable that they be worked
lightly or that they have the run of a
lot where exercise can be taken. In
working mares in foal, experience
proves that heavy pulling. jerking,
backing and deep mud should be
avoided.
Bright mixed hay, timothy, choice
alfalfa and good clover are excellent
roughages for mares in foal. Sound
whole oats, corn and bran are very
practical concentrates to feed them
when heavy in foa1. Two parts whole
oats, two parts corn and one part bran,

Handles Grow Crooked.

; The Japanese are expert in the pa.
tient work needed in gardening, and
it is from the Japanese farmers on
the Pacific coast that most of the wood
is sent for use as umbrella handles.
Twisted handles were formerly bent
laboriously by steaming the wood to
make it flexible, but the Japanese force
the pretzels and other twists in the
growing plant which by system Of
pruning is forced to nourish the dis
torted twigs, the whole process taking
three years before they are ready for
the manufacturer to strip and polish,
or to use bark and all.

by the fact that the man was at
tackled with an Italian gtfletto, it would

Someone who waited for him on the
edge of that wood and stepped out and
killed hiIn-that's evident he said,
"and my belief is that it was an Ital-
ian. Thsre were two foreigners who
slept at common lodging house two
nights ago and went on tram towards
Glasgow. We have telegraphed after
them aud hope we shall find them.

Therefore, then and there, I took a
sheet of paper and wrote to my old
friend Hutcheson at Leghorn, asking
him to make immediate inquiry of
gOlinto's father as to his sons address
in London.

her.
IF we find it, the crime would then
tell its own tale-it would convict the
person in whose hand have seen that

answer.
"Then you wish me to assist you in
this search, Miss Leithcourt? My

she held up her slim wrist to show
me the little enameled watch set in

planned, smiling.

NEW METHODS IN WHALING
Old-Fashioned Harpoon Has Been Dis
carded for the Most Modern of
Deadly Weapons.

In early days the wooden sailing
ships engaged in the whaling indus
try in southern seas pursued only
right whales and sperm whales, or
cachalots. The so-called timers,
such as the blue whale, the largest
animal in the world; the finer whale;
the small fish whale; and the hump
back, were all too active, and sank too
quickly when killed. But their turn
has now come, for the modern whale
gun is a finely fashioned cannon, the
harpoon carries shell, and the body
of the whale is kept afoat by initiating
it with air through pipes from the
engine room of the whaler. The rem
dering is now done in a factory on
shore, or in special large vessel
moored in the harbor. Besides the
whalebone, which no longer pays we'll
or at all, and the oil, which is graded
into qualities as it comes from the
blubber, the fat of the tongue and kid.
neys, the flesh and bones and the
refuse, there remain the dried flesh
and bones, which are now also put to
commercial use The absolutely fresh
flesh is used to make whale-meat meal,
a nutritious and wholesome foodstuh
that is largely fed to cattle. From
the remaining flesh and about third
Of the bones whale guano Is made, and
from the bones alone bone meal. The
largest whaling business in the world
is now conducted In the Falkland is
lands and their dependencies. The
season begins in November, and lasts
until the end of April, and the aver
age production of oil is nearly half a
million barrels; of guano, 1875 tons.
The industry gives employment to
about $500 men.-Youth's Companion.
