WHAT CONSTITUTES \ "TEAM' IN

jPv Daniel l.. CadyD
Things fow quite smoothly at our house
The weeks and week ends gently meet
We both like gravy m our grouse,
We're neither keen FOR shred worr
wheat;
There's jest one faW!et in the ring,
One wakeful place in life sweet dream
MY wife maintains, I'M hill ana down
\ one-horse rig is not a team
You see my adys native Statt
Is laved by Mississippis tide;
There wonders happen while YOU wait.
There roads are level, long and wide,
A land where four-horse turn9uts speed.
Where plows and harrows go by steam
And 'tis'nt strange She doesn't call
A little one-horse rig n team.
4 red-wheeled hitch-up oft goes past
our house and stains the winder panes
The harness CLEANS, the horse steps fas;
The driver leans against the reins;
always watch that glitterng rig
It's what the boys would call
scream
also always hear these words:
II spose he thinks he's got team.
And | say in accents fine
1T pears to my Nermontish mind
A man Is in the teaminG line
Who drives a horse and sets behind"
hear this answer, NO; my dear.
1t wouldn't he no moro extreme
To say the hoy who rides one mule
Or leads one donkey has a team"
It's sure a subject nice and new
And tests the brains Of any man;
One horse, of course, is less than two.
If ones team. then what's a span?
don't give in, hut do respect
My wifes opinion on the theme
That 'tisn't fair to man or beas;
To call one-hOrse rig team"

made of venetian lace. Bows of satin
ribbon with floating ends are caught
to the coat at the shoulders. They
are of narrow ribbon, matching the
girdle in color. Black velvet ribbon
may be used for them and for the
girdle if touch of dignity is needed
to adapt this gown to an older wearer.
In the party gown pictured above,
silver-thread lace edges the underskirt
Of thin crepe or satin. A wide over
dress of chiffon is edged with satin
covered cord at the bottom. Chiffon
roses decorate the bodice and are re-
peated in wreath in the hair. This
is one of those very dainty frocks
whose usefulness begins and ends
with evening dress. The gown previ-
ously described may be worn both
for afternoon and evening.
In January the new lingerie"
gowns will appear for the use of those
who journey South. They are in the
making and awaited with the keenest
interest, for they are the most adapt
able and refined of dainty things. But
they will not displace the party frocks
of tulle and lace. given over to airi-
ness and sparkle which make a grace
of being gay.

creased bowl. Cover and let rise from
one and one-half to two hours.
When light, mold into loaves and
place in well-greased baking pans,
cover and let rise again for about one
hour. When light, bake forty to fifty
minutes, reducing the heat of oven
after first ten minutes.
This recipe makes four large loaves.
The whole process takes from five
and one-half to six hours, and if fol-
lowed closely will produce excellent
results.
If richer loaf is desired, use milk
in place of all or part of the water.

Cheese for Dessert

1t is said that little cheese at the
end OF dinner acts as a digestive
agent, but whether or not this is
true, no well appointed dinner is
without it. In many homes a bit of
cheese with an accompanying fruit
or jelly, is used as dessert instead
OF some pudding or pie. 1t is just a
sufficient finish to a family dinner
without dessert. If there is dessert,
the cheese is frequently served with
the salad, roquefort cheese with let
tuce or tomatoes. Connoisseurs do
not cut a roquefort cheese until it is
well advanced in decay and therefore
1t is not we'll to set before a man OF
this sort new bit of the cheese. IT is
more advisable to leave it out alto
gether and give him brie or cheddar,
both of which are favorite cheeses
with men.

within reach of the town workmen.
A farmer needs two or three nail
hammers, together with the hard and
fast rule that one belongs exclusively
in the shop and must be left there.
The farm shop should also be sup
piled with a good brace and a set Of
bits 5-16ths to l inch. Pod bits are
better up to and including Il inch.
jack plane and draw shave, with
some smaller odd tools, will complete
the necessary carpenter outfit to start
with.
A supply of red paint and two or
three brushes of different sizes are
necessary to complete a repair job on
farm implement or machine. There
is only one kind of red paint for
farmer to buy, and that is pure red
lead. 1t penetrates better when mixed
with pure raw linseed oil, but boiled
oil is better for some purposes. The
word pure" in this connection means
good deal to farmer. Brick dust
resembles red lead very closely but
brick dust is not much good to protect
either wood or iron from rusting Cot
tonseed oil resembles linseed oil, but
it won't make good paint.
A farm implement shed, built and
equipped in this way, is a strong in
ducement to keep the tools and ma
chinery in good working order 1t
means a great deal at seeding time
in the spring. when every minute
should count, to have the tools all
ready to hitch on to and to have them
in condition to do their very best
work. A farmers time in winter is
well spent by getting things ready
for the busy season in the spring.
Farming is largely mechanical A
farmer, to be successful, must under
stand his machines and have mechani-
cal ingenuity enough to keep them in
good proper condition to do their work
as the manufacturer intended.
The illustration shows how the shed
is built of light timbers with plenty
of large doors to get the machinery
in and out easily.
A word of caution in regard to the
front of the building may be neces-
sary. When front is all doors, there
is little room for bracing 1t is a
good plan to make the door posts
three or four feet longer than the il
lustration indicates, and to extend
them down into the ground This
should be done by digging holes larger
than the posts, then set the posts with
concrete to make them solid and to
preserve them from rotting. 1t takes
the place of stills This makes a very

LIVE ON ALFONSO'S PENSION
Spanish King Remembered an In
termed Hungarian Musician in
Most Practical Way.

The king of Spain has a way Of re-
Wondering people when they are in
trouble. The celebrated Hungarian
gypsy violinist and orchestra conductor
Bold, who played daily and nightly at
the Ritz, Meurice and Cafe de la Paix
in Paris for some thirty years, was
sent to concentration camp by the
French authorities at the opening of
the war. Boldi had brought up large
family in Paris. but he had never
thought of getting naturalized. So
when the war came the whole family,
along with the score or more OF Hun
garian musicians in the orchestra,
were bundled off to camp. The
property which Bold had acquired out
of his years of savings was put under
sequester and the family found itself
in straits.
Now the king Of Spain is passionate
ly fond of Hungarian music and used
to give really royal tips to Bold every
time he went to Paris for many years.
Boldi's son even went to play in a fash
ionable restaurant at Madrid on recon-
mendations given by the king. When
the king heard from Hungarians at
Madrid that the Bold family was in
difficulties he had his secretary send
them monthly allowance of 300
francs $500, which has gone to the
camp every month since the outbreak
OF the war. There is little need for
money at the camp, SO the whole fam
lily is quite comfortable on King Al
fonso's allowance.

the readers of this paper. On account of
his wide experience as Editor, Author and

A shed to hold farm implements
may not look as important as some
of the other buildings, but it is neces-
alton in the value of farm nipple
ments and machinery is about 10 per
cent per year under good care. When
the machines are left to weather and
rust in the rain and wind the loss
is simply ruinous. More machinery is
required on farms than formerly, and
it is not a question whether a farm er
can afford machine shed or not; the
only problem is to find out how to
build it and how large to build it.
In the first place the implement
shed should be big enough to hold all

and tight enough to keep out the wind
and small animals, including chickens.
The plan shown herewith is 16 feet
in width and GO feet in length. The
width is all right for any length shed.
1t may be built shorter and the length
continued at any time if more room
is needed. The doorways provide
headroom sufficient for the highest
machines, and the width of the widest
opening when the double doors are
opened and the center post removed

is nearly 20 feet, which is sufficient
for binder in field condition or for
two-horse spring tooth horse rake.
One end of the building is intended
for machine shop, to be partitioned
Off by enclosing the first bent. This
gives shop 10 feet square for a black
smith shop and general repair work.
The machine shop part of the build
ing will be arranged according to the
mechanical inclination of the farmer.
A real, genuine, sure-enough farm re-
pair shop is rather elaborate me-
chanical proposition. There is a good
brick chimney to carry Off the smoke
and gases from the blacksmith fire,
and the chimney should have a sepa-
rate flue for a heating stove. Farm
repair work is done mostly during the
winter months, when q fire in the
shop is necessary for comfort and eff
cheney. A person cannot work to ad-
vantage with cold fingers. Paint re-
quires moderate heat to work to ad-
vantage. Painting farm implements
is very important part of repair
work.
good shop arrangement is to have
an iron work bench across the end,
lighted by a wide window, built in
shop fashion. In the far corner
against the back wall is good place
for a woodworking bench 1t is too
mussy to have the blacksmith work
and the carpenter work mixed up.
Also different styles Of vises are
needed. A high, heavy iron wise for
blacksmith work and low-down wise
that is flush with the top Of the bench
Tor carpenter work Besides the forge
and anvil, the farmer ne.ls a good
drill press. The upright pattern that
bolts to post is most satisfactory
Room Is needed In the front and at
the right aad left-hand sides of the
driH, with tAe post at the back. 1t
often happens that a farmer wants to
drill holes through long piece of
iron, and Slis arrangement permits
passing it through from end to end.
Quite number of hand blacksmith
tools are needed. A partial list would
include about four pairs of tongs of
different shapes and sizes. black
smith hammer, one lighter riveting
hammer with a fiat peen, sledge
hammer, an anvil hardy, one pair of
horseshoe nippers, and small assert
ment each of drills, cold chisels,
punches and files. This outfit would
not be expensive and it is sufficient
to do a great many jobs of repair
work. 1t may be added to at any time
when other tools are really needed.
The farm carpenter tool outfit may
be less expensive, because fewer tools
are needed. A good crosscut hand
saw, having nine teeth to the inch,
will be found useful for farm work.
A good hand rip saw is more neces-

Ready-made soles are bought for
