A very simple and very pretty taf-

be made in outfitting her for summer.
Even the smallest Of little ladies goes

For the average purse the little
girls ready-made silk coat is apt to
be rather extravagant in price. This
is a matter Of the work involved and
not because of the cost Of the silk.
To make the best coats involves some
hand sewing Even when economy
must be carefully considered the silk
coat costs little enough to be within
easy reach if it can be made at home.

a coat like the model shown In the

TIME FOR SHEARING SHEEP
Mistaken Notion to Wait Until Late
in Season for Heavier and
Better Fleece.

Some people have the idea that il
sheep are not shorn until late in the
season the fleece will be heavier and
better. This, an experienced shep-
herd of Wisconsin says, is a mistaken
notion, and is often the cause of con-
siderable loss. The sheep lose in
weight during the first warm days Of
spring, and, as the fresh grass acts
as laxative, the fleece becomes dirty
and unpleasant to handle. 1t is a
much better plan to shear the sheep
before turning to grass, as this will
insure cleaner wool and will therefore
make better gains. Don't neglect tC
trim the animals hoofs, if ties need
it, as cases Of foot-rot can thus b,
prevented.

foals do not always die at once, but
may linger for weeks or months with
swollen joints and other parts.
Care should be taken to provide a
clean stall with plenty of bedding for
the mare several days before foaling
and to disinfect the floor and walls
with 5 per cent solution of carbolic
acid or some other reliable germicide.
Cleanliness and sanitation used with
intelligence will lessen the losses from
this disease. Distinction of the ma

rians. It might pay to protect the ma

Where the tires hit the square corner
of the curb they would dent almost
t. tho rim and their elasticity would
then push the car forward again.
Some time when you are waiting for
II train or II YOU are at a square where
the cars are parked by backing In,
notice how often this is done. You
will wonder why the tire does not i'm
mediately blow out.
Talking about trains reminds the
writer Of the harm which Is done by
running In car tracks. Even at this
late date and after all that has been
written about the harm from this, the
writer recently noted, while driving
on a portion of Broadway near the
city limits OF New York city, that the
| asphalt edging the ear tracks has
been worn away To at least half inch
depth, showing how much cars arc
driven In the tracks.
Improper adjustment OF the brakes
| IL the cause OF much tire trouble and
OF dangerous skidding When brakes
are adjusted both rear wheels should
be lacked up and the holding power
tested by hand. The adjustment
should be such that each wheel Will
give an equal resistance. If this Is
not done, when the brakes are APP
piled only one wheel will lock. but
not having-cnough grip on the ground
to stop the car, 1t will slide along and
| in doing so leave some of it's rubber
behind. II the pavement he wet the
car will skid.
Have YOU ever noticed brown
streak or line on an asphalt pave
ment? That streak is the rubber
which was burned off the tire of some
ones car, who either suddenly APP
piled his brakes or whose brakes were
not properly adjusted.

Where this happens the driver sell

AMERICA LEADING
CAR MANUFACTURERS
Has More Motor Vehicles Than
Rest of World Com
bined.

Figures compiled show that there
were 3,l0S,472 motor cars in use In
June, 1916, throughout the world.
OF this number, the United States had
2,400, OO0-far and away the largest
majority. The island of British North
Borneo has the smallest number, five.
Honduras, down in Central America,
has the next smallest, nine, and the
island of Samoa, down in the South
Seas, has the third smallest number,
ten.
The wonderful stride of the industry
has taken in the United States are
shown conclusively by these figures.
The United States has nearly 100000,
while Great Britain, her nearest rival,
has only 276,699. France stands next
to Great Britain with 9S,400; Germany
next to France with 7l.455; and Can
ada next to Germany, with $3.50.
Australia has 20,350 cars; Russia.
$3.50: and Argentina. 1886 80.
1t IL safe to say that by far the
largest percentage OF cars in every
country are OF American make.
