GOOD RUGS CHEAPEST IN END
No Economy in stIntlng Expenditure
When Buying These Necessaries

Next to a piano, a good rug makes
serious inroads into the house-furnish-

reason a rug should be as good as the
household can possibly afford, for It
never pays to economic Overclosely

TULLE RIBBON GIVES EFFECT
This Winters Evening Bodice, Which
Is Made Like a Brasslere, Should
Be Softened.

Under evening gowns there is worn
a band Of flesh pink satin ribbon
which extends over the full part Of
the figure and fastens snugly at the
back. One might add, parenthetically,
that the bodice of the winter has
looked astoundingly like this brassiere.
Half a dozen Of them were worn at a
recent fashionable dance, made of sill
yer tissue or iridescent sequins, with
out shoulder pieces or sleeves. These
bodices were pulled so tightly around
the figure hat they looked like bras
s%ieres; across each shoulder, we'll to-
ward the neck, was a string Of pearls
or crystals.
These corsages are made to be
worn with white or colored tulle, but
there is an unpleasant defiance of this
convention among certain Of the
younger women. It is not a commend
able trick, either on the score of mod
esty or artistic merit. That line where
the arms Join the shoulders is not es-
pecially attractive on anyone. and the
utterly nude shoulder is not a delect-
able sight.
When such a bodice forms a setting
for a cloud of misty tulle the effect is
enhancing. The women who really
know how to dress use the idea in an
effective manner. Sea green, turquoise
blue, mauve and rose pink are some
of the colors used in this drapery.
One of the new methods of arrang'
ing tulle is to throw it lightly around
the neck, cross at the back and bring
it lightly forward over the shoulders
to the waistllne, after the portrait OF
! Queen Louise of Prussia.

CORN SUCKERS A HINDRANCE2
Leaves Seem to Perform Useful Office
in Absorbing Nutritive Elements
From Atmosphere.

Many farmers are possessed with
the idea that the suckers or earless
stalks, which grow from an ear-bear,
ing stalk of corn. are a hindrance to
the best growth Of the latter; and
valuable hours are sometimes spent
in removing them. But, according to
Wallace's Farmer, actual experiments
during two successive years, on Ne.
braska farms, demonstrated that corr

like the others, would seem to per

IMPORTANT POINT OF DRESS
Buttons Are Given Extreme Consider
alton by the Woman Who Desires
to Be Properly costumed.

Ivory buttons are of every shade
seen in dress fabrics including navy
and royal blues. dark reddish plums,
nut and African browns, Russian
green and many more in plain and
notified effects in various shapes to
match the mixtures in cloakings and
dress materials. Combination buttons
r of black and white, blue, red and
other colors. Small fancy buttons OF
white pearl are half-moon, square, OBJ
long and many round ideas with differ
ent cut centers.
Very ornamental buttons are used
on wide belts worn on coats. Many
cloth coats are trimmed with self-cov.
cred buttons with a fancy center and
plain rim, such as a plaid silk center
and plain wooden rim. A new idea
is a pearl center and fabric edge.
Many a dress. coal or waist may be
changed in appearance by putting OF
new buttons and a new collar. Small
lace buttons are used for the lace
striped cotton fabrics.

The business must be learned either
by study or experience, sometimes sad
experience.
The problem Of proper feeding alone
calls for thought, good judgment
and careful watching of the flock on
the part of even those who have had
considerable experience with poultry.
It requires close observation and at
tention to detail to see that a flock Of
hens is fed enough, yet not too much,
and that they are compelled to
take exercise to keep them in good con-

poultry from poultry books and papers
written by those who are advertising
some special breed Of poultry or
have for sale some special poultry
food or have on hand some other ak
to grind.
Because Of this the profits are fig
ured o high for ordinary poultry
keepers to reach. OF course it is not
to be- denied that in some cases the
profit from one hen for a year may be
three dollars. l have made it myself,
but commonly it is apt to be nearer
one dollar.
A person starting in the poultry bust
ness with the larger profits in mind
will not so closely watch the expenses
and this must be carefully looked
after to make a success, in this as
in any other business.
The profit is always greater pro-
p|ortionately from a small flock of
hens than from a large one. There
are several reasons for this. The
smaller fiocks have a better chance on
the range, are sure not to be over
crowded and there are so few OF them
that the table scraps which they usu-
ally get will do them some good and
they individually receive more atten'
ton in every way.
Not knowing these things, a begin
ner thinks IL he can make a profit OF
say 81 a hen from a flock of 20 hens.
making a total profit of $40, then he
can make $1,000 from a flock of SOC
hens, but he will find this quite a diff.
ferent proposition.
Usually the first thing he does when
he increases his flock is to Overcrowd
the fowls. Then he will get but few
eggs while the cost Of keeping each
hen is as much as though she laid
an egg every day. Besides this, the
fowls soon get sick when they are
crowded and then there is a loss tC
go on the debit side of their account
Another mistake is in thinking thai
anyone without any knowledge of the
work can give the hens the proper
care and that all there is to do is tC

With Good Results.

For breeding ewes, roots and vege-
tables are the best kind Of succulent
foods, although corn ensilage may
be used with fairly good results.
In feeding corn ensilage to breeding
ewes better results viii come from
feeding it once a day and allowing
each eve from two to four pounds

and the person indulging In Il will
have some valuable experience and
fewer eggs II not fewer hens before

II is a great mistake also to keep
old hens hat are past their useful
mes for laying eggs. Often enough
of these are kept to eat up the profits
from the entire flock and the indus
trious hens, as well as the business
are condemned because the owner
hasn't the sense or the energy or the
courage to Gull out the old hens and
sell them.
Perhaps you hate to make your
flock so small but what is the use of
caring for and feeding 100 hens to
get no more eggs than you would from
so with half the expense of feed?
Another place where the profits are
lost, often enough to cause failure,
is in the marketing.
Poultry products can be sold care
lessly Oh the open market for the same
price as other carelessly cared for
products, but by taking care with the
preparation and marketing these
