AK. of k.~ Feared Drowning.

Lord Kitchener had a sort of fore
boding of an accident at sea. So
much was this the case that he never
crossed from Dover to Calais without
wearing a lifebelt waistcoat, one that
he had specially made for him in
Egypt before he made his famous adj
vance to Khartum.
Though so often on the sea and an
excellent sailor he detested sea trips,
and never felt comfortable on board
ship. He complained that the sea
affected his sight.
Another curious point was that while
he always acquired curios in any part
of the world in which he might be,
he took care never to allow his pur-
chase to be on the vessel on which he
was q passenger.

NEW STYLES HIT FACTORIES
Lessened Demand for Ingram Carpets
and Rugs Put Number of Plants
Out of Business.

Changes in styles have had a disas-
trous effect upon many of the carpet
factories of the United States during
the past few years, according to Uncle
Sam. A report of the census bureau
shows that the number of carpet fac
tories declined from 1870 in 1909 to 81
in 1914. Several of these went out of
business, Uncle Sam says, chiefly on
account of the lessened demand for in
grain carpets and rugs, due to a
change In styles.
The total value of products in 1914
was less by S2,059967, or 30 per cent,
than the corresponding total for the
preceding census.
The chief constituent material OF
the carpet and rug industry is wool,
either in raw or in partially prepared
form. The raw wool used in 1914
amounted to 52,552,449 pounds and
cost SIC, 493 743, as compared with a.
135,020 pounds, costing $11,752, 1896,
consumed in 1909. Wooden and worsted
yarns also constituted important mate
rails. OF wooden yarn, 21,626,360
pounds, costing $5,S21 ,S4S, was used in
1914. Worsted yarn to the amount of
9,267,27S pounds, costing 1882, 906,
was used. OF materials other than
wool, yarn made of jute, ramie and
other vegetable fiber is of greatest i'm
portance, this being the only material
extensively used in the industry which
in 1914 showed a gain as compared
with 1909. The amount consumed in
the later year, 59,14S,266 pounds, cost
ing $6,040,1S6, represented an in
screase of ga per cent in quantity and
53.S per cent in value in comparison
with the 1909 figures. Cotton yarn to
the amount of 24,619,137 pounds, cost
ing $4,837 ,673, and linen yarn amount
ing to 1902, 200 pounds, costing $1,414,.

When Cows Sold at SIS.

How the increase in the cost of liv-
ing has progressed in the last thirty
or forty years was discussed by Gov
J. B. Kendrick of Wyoming, an old
stockman, who has watched the march
of events Today a chicken is worth
more than a turkey was few years
ago; turkey more than a hog; a hog
more than a COW used TO be worth, and
a COW more than a horse. This illus
trates the increase in the price of
food stock.
"In March, 1870, I went down to
Texas to look over two thousand head
of steers In Matagorda county, south
ern Texas" Governor Kendrick said,
according to the Washington Post.
"While l was down looking over the
young cattle l was asked by the man.
ager of the ranch if 1 cared to buy
some older steers. The owner, / was
told, had number of six-year-old
steers that he would sell, although he
was not anxious. He was going to
hold them until he got his price, he
declared. The manager impressed
upon me, however, that l need not
hope to buy unless I was willing to
pay the owners price.
ct asked the price, and was told
that he wanted fifteen dollars head.
Think of Fifteen dollars head for
six-year-olds, and today calves are
bringing eighty-five dollars"

Reshaping Panama Hats.

To reshape panama hat, first OF
all immerse the brim of the hat In
luke warm water until it is thoroughly
wet. Then you can mold 1t with the
fingers to the desired shape by gently
pulling and stretching. After this
press the brim with hot iron over
wet cloth. In the front of the hat, II
you want curved brim, press only
little at time, and from the crown
outward in sidewise movement, curry
ing the brim as you go. In the back,
for the straight brim, press perfectly
fiat, placing the brim fiat to the edge
of the board with the crown below.
Afterward lay the hat with the crown
up and put heavy weights on the back
brim until 1t Is thoroughly dry.

Poultry Scratchings
Y C. S. Anderson of the Colorado
Agricultural College.

If you take pride in marketing good
eggs at good price, consider the fol-
lowing:
Do not keep mongrel stock. They
are not high producers, and their eggs
are not uniform as to size and color.
Keep laying hens separated from sit
ting hens.
Gather eggs twice daily in warm
weather.
The sale of infertile incubator eggs
never will help you to establish a high
er market price for your product.
Separate the male birds from the
flock except during the breeding sea-
son. Festile eggs are poor keepers.
Market eggs in Il standard egg case.
Never haul to town over rough roads
or in an open basket or pan exposed
to the hot sun.
You will have n larger number of
"firsts' If you market at least twice
week.
In keeping eggs, provide q dry, COOL
we'll ventilated place. Fertile eggs
must be kept below 6S degrees to check
termination.
Eggs are affected easily by bad
odors. Do not keep in n musty grain
bin, or in the vegetable cellar, or
where they can absorb the odors of
kerosene and gasoline.

DOME Bush.

of trying that he didn't get every ball
hit in his direction. He was almost
overcome by the heat in the second in
ming and was advised to quit the game,
but stuck it out until the seventh.
No matter how badly DOME might
play on any afternoon, he would not
merit the sort of stuff yelled at him by
some of the patrons. He is one of the
veterans of the club and with Cobb
and Crawford, has kept this city on
the baseball map. No player tries
harder than DOME and few men in the
big leagues can point to more continu-
GUS presence in the lineup than can the
midget. He has missed only handful
of games since coming here.
When the fans feel inclined to criti-
CHE because he boots" a couple they
would do well to remember the dozens
games or won them. For every bad
error he can point to a score of almost
superhuman stops or catches.
Even in this game he made three
hits and scored two of Detroit's runs,
so he was more than offsetting his de-
fensive slips by his contributions to
the attack. Considering thesfact that
he was playing only on his nerve, he
didn't do so badly.
Another player who was abused I'M
justly by the unreasonable element of
the crowd was Mckee. "Red' had to
work harder than anybody else in the
game except the pitchers and the rival
backstop, and he was wrapped up in
protector, mask and shin guards, which
are not exactly cooling garments.
