CLEANLINESS IS BIG FACTOR
Arrange Plenty Of Clean Nests for
Layers-keep misunderstanding
Eggs for Home Use.

An important factor in poultry sue
cess is cleanliness. Arrange plenty of
clean nests for the layers. Thin-shelled
and dirty eggs should be kept for the
home table and the clean, uniform
eggs-and they nearly all should be
this if proper care is taken-should he
got on to some other table just as
soon as possible. If you once secure a
string of customers who know the vast
difference between a good egg and a
one-month-old, you can keep these Gus
toners just as long as you keep your
product up to the standard. But no
matter how good nor how fresh the
eggs, these customers will fail you If
you offer them dirty eggs.
1t is well to know the age Of the
eggs sold, but unless you can put them
in the hands of the user the day after
they are laid. do not put the date on
the egg, as most users had rather ''go
it blind" than use one that by the date
on the shell is even two weeks old.

SCREEN MATERIAL FOR BARN
cheesecIoth Tackled on Wooden Frames
Will Prove Satisfactory-Pienty
of Light Inside.

ANY sort of screening on the doors
and windows of the stock barn is bet
ter than none at all. But different
kinds of screening material seem to
result in fly elimination with varying
degrees of effectiveness.
One of the best methods appears to
be TO cover the window openings with
n heavyweight cheesecloth or some
similar material. The doors can be
nroyided for in the same way by
either equipping them with sliding
gates to which the cloth is tackled or
by using the cloth on ordinary screen
door frames. There is plenty Of light
in a barn screened in this manner, but
IL is of a subdued sort which Is not
attractive to the fly. He is less apt to
fly into the barn when door Is open
ed for the reason that from the out
side the interior appears dark.
Ordinary wire screening and the
less expensive mosquito netting make
little or no difference in the character
of the light inside the barn. 1t is
usual to find as a result that more
1ies succeed in getting inside.

Just at first our leading furriers re-
fused, with Indignation, to use rabbit
skins in any form, writes Paris cor
respondent. But little by little these
autocrats have been forced to give way.
Dyed rabbit is the craze of the hour.
This is an undeniable fact.
And it is certain that chinchilIa-dyed
rabbit is a very pretty little fur. 1t is
so short that it. looks almost like plush.
but then it is deliciously soft and
supple. This fur was introduced at the
end of last year by several prominent
mannequins from famous Paris houses.
They appeared on the Grande PLACE Of
Biarritz, wearing the loveliest tricot
sweaters which had large collars and
deep cuffs made Of some strange gray
fur.
Everyone asked, "what is it," And
1t was difficult to arrive at correct
answer. In this way general curiosity
was aroused in connection with dyed
rabbit, with the result that no one felt
really astonished when it was an
nounced as "the correct thing"
Nearly all Redfern's winter skirts
are rather long, compared with the
skirts of last spring. Some Of his
models in cloth and serge almost reach
the ankles; others are just long enough

to cover the tops of high laced boots.
These skirts are almost as wide as ever
but they are made of such supple
stuffs that the folds fall straight from
waist to hem.
Redfern is using a great deal of fine
blue or black serge: and he is making
lovely morning suits in pure white
faced cloth, the latter often showing
cape collars and deep cuffs in mus
quash.
With pure white tailored suits the
most effective boots are those made Of
supple black patent leather laced up
the fronts, not at the sides. These boots
have high Cuban heels and they are ex-
tremely smart.
The toque have sketched this week
is one of Carriers new winter models.
1t was Caroline Reboux who first made
cap-toques so popular with our Paris
iennes, and now earlier is showing
many close-fitting models which look
like inverted bowls and which cling
quite close to the head and hair.
The toque shown in my drawing was
made of skunk-brown velvet and the
trimming consisted of band Of skunk
which was passed round the toque and
then twisted into very high. wired
loop directly in front. l have seen 9
similar toque made of rich violet

CARING FOR RHUBARB
Something Wrong if Satisfactory
Crop Is Not Obtained.
Apply Remedy This Year and Pre-.
vent Repetition of Same Trouble
Next season-suppIy of Fer
tiIizer is Necessary.

How did your rhubarb bed do this
season? We're the stalks short or
slim? Were the leaves small and
ragged looking? Did it turn a sicIxIv
color and the plants wither or dwin-
die away in the middle of the sum-
merf If you did not have a satisfoc-
tory crop of this widely admired nie-
plant, something was wrong. A rem
edy Is needed, and since it is NOT
expensive or difficult to procure. sun
pose we apply it now and prevent n
repetition Of the same trouble next
year.
1t requires no particular kind of
magic to induce this plant to grow.
and the earlier it produces the more
valuable 1t is for either market or
household use. / find the greatest thing
for rhubarb is plenty of good stable
manure put on at this season of the
year, says writer in an exchange.
1t Is an excellent idea to cover the
earth surrounding the roots TO a
depth of four inches. This not only
enriches the soil, but protects the
roots and assists in producing an early
growth.
l never pack the manure down close
to the earth, for | think this helps to
make the soil sour, and also makes it
more wet, which, of course will cause
heavier freezing in severe weather.
A little straw with the manure will
act as mulch and produce better re-
suits. A very slight sprinkle of salt
will do the beds good, but be careful
not to OverdO this.
If the bed is of long standing, die
up the roots, or at least a portion of
them, and reset them in new earth
in new locality, say, about three
or four feet apart. Set in good
strong roots, and be careful to have
the root crown well covered with soil
Manure this new bed literally, and
1t will pay you even next season for
your trouble, but from then on. for at
least five years, with liberal manuring
it will yield excellently and the quail
ity will be fine.

pieces of the lighter order for rapid
firing.
Ii is officially stated that the "Red
Cross Dog League" which began ac-
tivities early in the war with eight
dogs. now has $500 in the field, each
with its own trainer. 1t is asserted
that the lives of at least 5000 wounded
men have been saved by these dogs.
AS illustrative of what dogs can do
in warfare it is recorded that:
"A newly trained dog was brought
into front line trench one night in
France and after shifting the air
awhile pointed obstinately at a GER
tain point in the trench and could not
be induced TO come away. His COM
paniOns declared that there must be
some Prussians near by, but the habi-
tual occupants Of the trench ridiculed
the idea; the thing was impossible,
they said.
Suddenly a soldier asked whether
it was possible that the dog had struck
listening post. Everyone knew that
there Vas one about somewhere, but
no one had ever been able ~ spot it.
The captain was skeptical, but or
dered fire rockets to be sent up, and
there, sure enough, we're three Prus-
slams posted in a spot only a dozen
yards or so off the trench.

MIST-SHADED TULLE GOWNS
That Have Reached This Country
From Partisan Costumers.

New evening gowns from Paris seem
to be made of the soft colored mist
that one sees sometimes at sunrise or
sunset. They are composed Of 1eli-
cate tulles, or of the more delicate
nets.
A lovely one is a mixture Of peach
tulle and orange tulle. These two
colors are very happily combined, the
peach tones toward the top of the
gown, mounted over white chiffon, and
the orange tulle forming the skirt ruff
fies and a drapery which replaces a
sleeve.
Black net or dark blue is hung over
light blue chiffon in another darce
frock. An odd blush shade of green
girdle, embroidered with green gold
metal bullion, encircles the waist.
Both fur and flowers are seen on some
of these gowns, the fur, slender strips
of ermine or marten, harmonizing rath-
er than contrasting with the gown
color. The flowers are mere little
tufts of tinsel gauze, disclosed to view
by the way they catch the light on
their metal threads. The skirts are
little longer, just below low boot
! top length. While full, they are 50
gauzelike and limp that even then the
four or five yards of fullness does not
make them stick out much. Sleeves
