Its Appropriateness Has the Effect Of
Making or Marring Any Kind
of Costume.

Starched linen and pique collars are
attractive below round, youthful faces,
but they are hopelessly trying on thin
faced women and on women past the
freshness of youth. With these child
ish collars are worn knotted ties of
soft silk in striped black and white,
or dotted black and white effects; or
of crepe de chine in somber shad-
ings. The effect with one of the
,mannishly tailored suits is very
smart indeed, but women Of mature
years do best to confine themselves
to more formal type Of collar, of
handkerchief lawn or batiste, touched
with little hand embroidery or fin
1shed with hemstitching. A collar of
some sort, however, must turn over
on the dark tailored coat, to give it
the correct and up-to-date air. Small
snap fasteners attached under the COL
lar and to the collar of the coat will
hold these detachable bits of neck
wear in trim position.

WOOD LOT VERY CONVENIENT
Useful for Fuel Supply as Well as fo'
Fence Posts and Timber for
Other Purposes.

During the years that have passed
many men have been engaged in fight
ing the forest, cutting and clearing
land Of timber, preparing it for the
pillow. In other words, making farms
and homes. The work still continues
in the heavily timbered sections.
Much bad judgment was used in
the early clearing, often rather steep
hillsides were denuded of timber and
the soil put under the plow, while in
many instances more level portions
of the farm were left in timber. Wash.
ing soon followed the cultivation OF
such rough tracts, and today many
of them are badly SCARED by deer
gullies and much of the surface soil
has been carried away.
Every farm should have a small,
wood lot. Forestry on the farm is to
day an important feature of agricul
ture and ought to receive considerate
attention from farmers. A wood lot
is very convenient to have, not only
as source of fuel in times Of scarce
and high priced coal as at present,
but to furnish fence posts and timber
for various uses and to add beauty
to the landscape and premises, afford
shade, shelter and comfort to a large
extent for all the occupants of tho
farm.
A wood lot properly cared for will
continue to grow and produce suffi.
Gent for the needs of the farm fol-
a time. And little study Of the sub.
ject of forestry will greatly aid in
maintaining the tract in good condi.
ton.

new SEEDLINGS OF ALFALFA
Ground Is Not Firm and Considerable
Damage Is Done by the Tram
ping Of the Plants.

New seeding of alfalfa should not
be pastured. The ground in these
fields is not firm and considerable
damage is done by the trampling OF
the plants, especially during wet
weather.
Fields established a year or more
may be pastured lightly in the fall, but
should never be eaten down close.
If the growth of alfalfa is not very
strong the field may be top-dressed
any time during the fall, preferably
just after tho third cutting has been
removed.
New seedlings may be top-dressed
at any time except during wet wealth,
er when the ground is soft.

GARMENTS FOR BABY|TO PACK POULTRY
Specialists Urge Unusual Care in
Preparing Fowls.
Methods Recommended Which Are
Essential to Perfect Product at
Any Time, Especially When
Weather 10 UnfavorabIe.

Poultry packers are urged by the
specialists of the United States de-
aartmeht Of agriculture to give unus-
aal attention to preparing and pack
ing their bird0 for shipment, particu-
arly if the mild weather, which has
been widely prevalent this autumn,
continues. The poultry specialists
say that the weather conditions in
many sections nave been very similar
to those which prevailed in the au-
tumn Of 1913 and which, as poultry
shippers will remember, proved dis
astrous to all packers who did not
1ress, chill and pack properly.
The specialists, therefore, recon-
mend the particular observance Of the
following metbnds of handling dressed
feet product at any time and are of
vital importance whenever weather
conditions are unfavorable:
Methods Of Handling Dressed Poultry.
1. Keep the holding batteries for
your incoming stock clean, we'll aired,
and free from vermin, and see that the
chickens have plenty of fresh water
and plenty to eat.
2. Don't kill chicken when the
crop is full of feed. Give the chicken
only water for "a hours before it is
killed. Food in the crop or in the in
testines Of dressed chicken causes
loss Of flavor and hastens dncav which
more than offsets any gain from extra
weight.
3. Good bloo0ing is absolutely es-
sential to good appearance on the
market and retards decay. Circular
81, bureau of chemistry, department of
agriculture, explains the best methods
Of bleeding and loosening the feath-
er muscles for dry picking.
4 Hang the chicken by both feet
while picking. Hanging by one leg
spoils the shape of the bird. Picking

USE FOR THE OLD RAINCOA7
Can Be Utilized to Make Satisfactory
Bathing Suit for Use Next
Summer.

Save your old silk raincoat to make
a nice bathing suit for next summer
Cut the blouse and skirt from the
best part and make the bloomers
from what is left over, or from mo
hair.
Trim it with a bright braid and
make a tie and cap from the spare
pieces. Another use for that old coat
is to make it into waterproof bags
which are very handy for carrying rub
bers or slippers to school this winter
These bags are made in the shape
Of envelopes and are half yard long
and nearly as wide. Bind all around
with tape and fasten with snap. AT
the top and at each end fasten braid
a yard long. This makes it con
venient to sling the bag over the
shoulder and carry in this manner.

SQUADS READY FOR MARKET
Birds Are In Good Condition WheR
Fully Feathe~=d Under Wings
Soon Lose Baby Fat.

Squads are ready for the market US
ually from three and one-half to four
and one-half weeks of age, and up to
this time they are fed by the parent
birds.
They must be sent to market
promptly, as the period during which
they are in best condition rarely ex.
ceeds one week.
Squads are in good market condi
tion when fully feathered under the
wings, which is usually about the time
they begin to leave the nest.
If they are not killed at this time
they soon lose their baby fat and theil
flesh begins to harden.
