INSTRUCTIONS FOR SOCKS.

The Red Cross headquarters have

quirements for knitting sock for the

ments furnished by Mrs. z. j. Lewis
superintendent of the knitting depart

Don'ts for the Knitters of Socks.
Don't cast on tightly. An otherwise
well-knitted sock may become useless

Don't knot your wool. Join the
ends by splicing, or by knitting the
ends double for or inches.
Don't make a heel with a seam on
the sole.
Don't use needles too fine for the
wool. The knitting should be elastic;

Il Won't Bring You Health or Happi-
mesa or Another Job.
Worry is like drug. 1t grows upon
you. 1t gets to be a habit. 1t is in
sidious. 1t is dangerous. 1t is deadly.
Worry saps the vitality. 1t makes you
old. 1t brings wrinkles. 1t brings gray
hairs. 1t brings i'll health. Worry is
an invention Of the evil one.
You worry at the possibility of
losing your work? Don't. You are
suggesting unemployment to yourself.
Suggestions frequently become realiza.
tons. If you suit your job and your
job suits you why worry? Why think
about it? Do your best in the position
you occupy. Strive to do better, but
don't worry because you appear to
make no progress. All in good time.
Nothing ever came by worry.
Should bad trade or such-like lead
you to believe you may lose your posi-
ton look out for another. If you do
good, efficient work, as well as your
competitor or better, why, you will
probably secure just as good q posi-
ton as the one you are worrying about.
You may be worrying over the health
Of relation. What help will it be for
you to worry yourself ill also? Is there
reason or sense in it? Worry brings
nothing good to pass. never did, never
will.
Keep a brave front. Keep steadily
on the march. whether you have any
reserves to bring up or not. Why, If
you forget the strain on Jour resources,
forget your problems. forget your anx-
ieties for a time, you will find on re-
consideration that Quarter. maybe
half, have disappeared.
AS friend Of ours says: do the
work; let the other fellow do the wer-
rying." You will find plenty of people
in the world doing enough worrying

Potato Cults.

Among the many products which are
being successfully dried at present and
which otherwise would go to waste
are potato culls-that is, potatoes which
have been injured in digging and there
fore are below market standards. At
least 10 per cent of the potato crop
falls into this class This percentage
is now being dried and converted into
potato flour.
A pound Of dried mixed vegetables
made up Of carrots. turnips, onions,
cabbage and potatoes. prepared espe-
cially for soup, is sufficient for sixty
or more adults. A barrel of the same
vegetables weighing 100 pounds pro
vides enough soup stock for nearly
5000 persons. The raw vegetables
which go to make up this mixture be-
fore drying fill thirty barrels and
weigh in the neighborhood Of 1900
pounds.-Popular Science Monthly.

Mozart's Music.

A recent biographer says Of Mozart
that the most wonderful fact about
him was that he directed his art to-
ward success without any sacrifice Of
himself and his music was always
written with regard to its effect upon
the public. Somehow it does not lose
by this, and it says exactly what he
wishes it to say. In this he was helped
by his delicate perceptions, his shrewd-
ness and his sense of irony. He de-
spised his audience, but he held him
self in great esteem. He made no con-
cessions that he need blush for; he de-
ceived the public, but he guided it as
we'll. He gave the people the illusion
that they understood his ideas, while
as a matter Of fact the applause that
greeted his works was excited only by
passages which were solely composed
for applause.

In many portions of the Middle
serious pasturage problems, accord
West sweet clover bids fair to solve
ing to Farmers Bulletin 800, "Sweet
Clover; Utilization" just issued. Ma
tive pastures which no longer pro-
vided more than scant living for a
mature steer on A or 5 acres, when
properly seeded to sweet clover, will
produce sufficient forage to carry at
least one animal to the acre through
out the season. Dairy cattle, horses,
sheep, and hogs all do well on sweet
clover. Land which is too rough OF
too depleted for cultivation or per-
manent pastures which have become
thin and weedy may be improved
greatly by drilling in, after discing, a
few pounds of sweet clover per acre.
Not only will the sweet Grover add
considerably to the quality and
quantity of the pasturage, but the
growth of the grasses will be i'm
proved by the addition of large
quantities of humus and nitrogen to
the soil.
Sweet clover has proved to be an
excellent pasturage crop on many of
the best farms in the North Central
States. In this part of the country
it is often seeded alone ind pastured
from the middle or the latter part of
June until frost, or it ray be sown
with grain and pastured after harvest.
