Hair Demand Exceeds Supply.

During the last few years the expor-
tation of human hair from Japan has
increased to the point that the de-
mand for it now far exceeds the avail
able supply. Especially when COM
pared with that of the average Euro
pean, the hair of the Japanese woman
is extremely long, elastic, and strong,
which gives it superiority for CONNER
cial purposes.
The United States and France offer
the principal markets for the Oriental
dealers. In Europe it is much used
for weaving purposes, the hair being
bleached by chemical treatment, dyed
in different colors, and subsequently
woven with silk into ribbon materials
and heavy fabrics suitable for dra-
peries and upholstering, some of
which command prices of several hun
dred pounds a yard.

WILD HOGS AS WATcHD0Gs
Brought Up With Herds of Goats or
Flocks of Chickens They Are
Sure Protectors.

In some parts of Mexico the wild
hogs, which the natives call jabalis-
notwithstanding beasts in their
natural state, are used as watchdogs.
II they are caught young and brought
up with goats they will go out into
the hills with the herd and fight off
coyotes or other wild animals; If they
are raised with chickens they will pro-
tect them, and round ranch house at
night they are as useful as any dog.
Although fierce by nature, they can
be tanned until they follow their mas
ter round like dog. The landlord Of
a hotel in one of the border towns even
keeps one of the wild hogs as a play
mate for his baby son.
The jabali is only first cousin, how.
ever, to the domestic pig. Swine are
divided into two main branches; in
one line is the farmers pig, descend
ed from the wild hog of Europe, and in
the other is the jabali, which is really
peccary. But the jabali is quite
piggy" enough. with his small, flexible
snout, long, notified bristles and long,
sharp tusks.

STORAGE OF CORN FOR SEED
Ears Should Be Thoroughly Dried Be-
fore Freezing Weather and Placed
In WelI-ventiIated Room.

In saving seed corn the ears should
be thoroughly dried before freezing
weather, and always stored in a dry,
well-ventilated room or granary. The
corn should be stored so as to per-
NIT perfect ventilation When only
a few bushels are needed for home
use, spread the corn on the top floor
of barn. The ears should be spread
thin on floor and not kept in barrels
or bins. Corn, when the grain on the
cob seems hard and dry to the touch,
will contain considerable moisture and
will mold il stored in a tight bin
when the weather is damp.
Sweet corn should not be gathered
until the middle of October, and then
husked and hung up in granary to
cure out, which will take several
weeks. Seedmen have a well-venti.
lated granary for their seeds, and seed
corn is placed on slotted shelves one
above the other so the air can pass
through the corn on every side. This
is the best method of keeping large
quantities of seed corn.

Feminine Haste.

ooh, let us learn to watt" writes
Margaret Deland anent the change in
the feminine ideal. 1T does not fol-
low that we must be idle because we
refuse to be precipitate; it may only
mean that we have a faith that is
large in Time, and in that which
shapes 1t to some perfect end.
Indeed, there seems to me a GER
tain unhumorous arrogance in this
bustling, feminine haste to make over
the world-it is as If we thought our
selves so important that nothing could
go right without us.
1T is the same sort of hurrying
anxiety to do which every house
keeper of us knows so well in her
little daily affairs, an anxiety that
adds so successfully to the discomfort
of our families.
"Yet, when you come to think of it
lit may not be flattering-but when
an illness sweeps us off our feet or
some duty calls us upon a journey,
how well our families do get along
without us!"

FIND CHILDREN A PROBLEM
Education Of Youngsters of the Mo-
hammedan Moros Engaging Earn
est Attention Of Americans.


The industrial training of the chill
dren of the Mohammedan Moros in
the Philippines is a matter of vital i'm.
portance as regards their prospects for
the future. The ignorance of the peo-
pie is so dense, their customs so
uncouth and their ideas of life so untu-
tored that child has but poor
chance at best. Up to the present the
government has done little to educate
the Moro, but what has been accom-
plished among the savage mountain
tribes elsewhere in the Philippines en-
courages the belief that equal effort
will meet with equal success among
the Moros. Bishop Brent writes: "A
wave of hpoelessness sweeps over one
when confronted by a mass of Moro or
pagan adults. But it is not so with
their children. They are as impress
sionable. as appealing, as lovable as
any children of any color in the whole
world. You can see the latent intelli-
genec in their eyes; the skill resident
in their slender, sensitive fingers; the
power in their comedy, half-clad or
wholly naked bodies. Only oppor-
tunity is lacking, and that we must
supply or be guilty in the sight of
heaven"

mails are all trained while they are
very young, at least their education is
well begun at that time.
We ought to remember, too, that 2
colt is like child in some respects.
He can learn but one thing at a time
and he cannot be hurried too much or
he will be bothered, frightened and
unable to understand what you want
him to do.
Never let the colt break away from
you while you are handling him. Don't
start in to train him until you have
good strong halters and brides. Take
care that you win always have the adj
vantage of the colt, for whenever he
gets the advantage of you all his pre-
vious training will amount to nothing.

ABLE TO APPRECIATE JOKE
Woman That Could Laugh Even When
the Humor Of Incident Was
Against Her.

This is an extract from a letter
written by woman who is willing to
share a good joke, even If the laugh
is at her own expense:
It was damp, windy day-the sort
of day that turns straight, straggly
blonde hair like mine into a mass OF
strings and ends that stick out about
the face and neck with frightful eff
feet l was downtown on a shopping
expedition that was exceptionally try
ing, and / knew l looked so badly that
/ carefully avoided all chance glances
into mirrors, for / was sure | could
not, under the circumstances. improve
my appearance much. Recklessly |
entered an ice-cream shop with a
friend whom / happened to meet. As
l placed my shopping bag on the floor
near the table at which we were to
sit, another bag, exactly like my own,
was put beside it. Quite naturally
my glance followed the hand and arm
up to the face of my neighbor, and as
/ met her look, said to myself, She
has hair just like mine--sticking out
in every direction-and she looks
even worse than do, poor thing!"
Naturally, my heart went out to her
in great wave of sympathy. We
smiled simultaneously as our troubled
eyes met, and said. aloud and quite
distinctly, IF we are not careful, we
shall get our shopping bags mixed!"
The moment the words were out of
my mouth l wished very earnestly
that the floor would mercifully open
and let me through. 1t did not re-
quire the subdued smokers from the
nearby tables to awaken me to the
realization that had been addressing
the image of myself in the mirror of
which the entire side of the shop was
formed. Do you get the picture?-

HOW TO HANDLE FRUIT
Care Must Be Exercised in Pick
ing and Packing Apples.
Apples Are Very Easily Bruised,
Thereby Presenting Unattractive
Appearance-AIways Watch
Markets in Selling.

Few people realize the Importance Of
handling apples with care while pick
Ing, packing and marketing. Apples
are bruised very easily and especially
those varieties having tender flesh
or skin. Bruises mean not only an I'M
attractive appearance but real waste
of fruit by having to cut out the
bruised tissue. Probably the greatest
damage from bruises, however, results
from the fact that the bruises furnish
an entrance for fungus or rot spores.
These spores, or fungus Seeds" are
as fine as dust and float in the air. If
they happen to lodge on bruised or
broken spot on the apple, they take
root and grow and spread through
the apple, causing it to rot. Wrapping
or covering the apple may not always
protect it, as the spores may have
lodged on the apple before 1t was
picked. However, IL the skin and flesh
of the apple can be kept intact and
not bruised or broken, there is not
much danger of the fungus or rot find
ing its way into the apple.
To prevent bruising, apples should
not be dropped or thrown into a
bucket, box or barrel, and in pouring
from one vessel to another care should
be taken that the apples are as close
as possible to the bottom of the vessel
in which you are placing them before
the pouring begins. If pail is Used
to pick in, it should be small enough
to lower into the boxes and, even then,
holding back the apples with the
hands is a good idea, as it breaks the
fall and lessons the bruising No apple
which falls from the tree should be
allowed to go into the first grade APP
pies.
First-class fruit in first-class shape
will probably develop an inquiry for
more Of the same kind.
There is almost as much in the
selling Of apples as in the growing.

TEACHING THE COLT TO LEAD
Accidents Not Likely to Happen II Or
binary Care Is Followed-Begin
Training While Young.

Some people are afraid to handle
young colts, to halter them and lead
them about for fear OF hurting them
in some way. 1t is true that the little
fellows may get scare that win cause
them to be tangled up and hurt in
some accident, but this is not
very likely to occur where even ordi-
nary carefulness is followed. On the
other hand, we all know how hard a
fullgrown animal is to accustom to
handling and harness. The chances
of running an older animal by acci-
dents in training are much greater
than in handling the colt that is still
running about alongside its mother.
1t takes lot of time. breaking straps
and rigging to make quiet, well-be-
haved horse out OF four-year-old, or
even a three-year-old that has been

GRAVEL SUPPLY FOR WINTER

Them to hunt new sets of teeth in.
Many listless, unhealthy flock of
fowls is so merely because their food
is not well ground and digests slowly,
and, hunt far as they will, the world
of chickens ahead of them has taken
up every bit of sharp gravel.
A fowl fills its crop with a number
CT sharp bits of grit at one time if
chance is given. These bits of grit
grind and grind until they are worn
smooth of points before they pass out
OF the gizzard to give room to more

SELL ALL SURPLUS POULTRY
Cocks That Have OUTLINED Their Use.
fuIness and Deformed PuIIets
Should BE Got Rid OF.

There is no better time of the year
than now to Gull out your poultry flock
and sell all surplus fowls. II more
care were taken to keep only desir-
able and productive fowls In the pouI-
try flock, the increase in the amount
of eggs produced would be hard to es-
innate. Hens that are in their
second season should be disposed
of as soon as they stop laying,
and before they drop into the mott.
Now is the time of the year when good
fat fowls bring good fat prices. Also
all cocks that have outlived their use
fulness should be got rid of. Even
though not worth a great deal, It is
better to sell them than to keep them
through the winter. Keep only the
very best Of the old stock; hens that
have been good layers and cocks that
you are sure are good stock getters,
must all be kept.
Besides the old fowls there are also
some new ones to be got rid Of.
All the surplus young cocks and all
the young pullets that are deformed,
understood or do not promise to be
good layers are disposed of. Good
signs of good layer are general
alert appearance: they must be active,
have bright eyes and sharp head.
II this weeding-out process should
be strictly observed by all poultry
farmers every year, the increase in
egg production would be enormous.

SPREAD OF CHOLERA GERMS
Reason for Prevalence of Disease In
Late Summer and Fall Is That
Harvest Hands Are Careless.

The reason that hog cholera is more
prevalent in the latter part of the
summer and fall is that farmers are
exchanging work during harvesting
and threshing and do not take precau-
tons against carrying the germ that
produces hog cholera from infected
to clean premises.
1t is not a good plan to thresh in
hog lots or allow hogs to run to straw
stacks. If cholera exists in the neigh
borhood, some of the help may come
from an infected farm and leave in
lection which will be picked up by the
pigs.-Nebraska College of Agricul'
ture.
