1t Is natural, therefore, that with the
rest of the clothes insisting upon
these straight lines. the new fur wraps
should take upon themselves some OF
the medieval characteristics.
We usually think of fur in the form
of huge fox, cape-like scarf, a motor
coat and a muff. but that is very lin
tied way to regard peltry, especially
the peltry of this winter.
There are capes of sealskin that are
fashioned into a watstcoat enect In
front and fastened to the very chin
with huge rhinestones and huge but
tons: there are cuirasses of fur that
fasten with fur covered, bone rimmed
buttons from chin down in straight

There are sleeveless jumpers Of mole

sometimes belted in with half-inch rib

CAFE AU LAlT.

In England tea has advanced in price
to such an extent and it is at the same
time SO necessary an accessory Of diet
in the army that 1t is considered an
act Of patriotic economy to drink cafe
au lait for breakfast instead Of the
usual tea infusion. OF course. any cof-
fee that is diluted with milk is cafe
au lait, but the term is usually applied
to the beverage as the French take it
for breakfast. That is a mixture of
clear coffee infusion to which is added
cafe au lait is often made by boil
ing the coffee in the milk and then
straining it and there are gastric con-

most delicious way Of making coffee.

FASHIONS

The skirt shown in the sketch has
been christened a ''bustle" skirt, but
inaslnuch as the flare extends not only
across the back. but across both sides,
it bears slight resemblance to the
hustle suits and frocks. 1t really is a

moderate short drapery or fared tunic.
The front of the skirt is laid in a

sibly those who design our clothes con-

WATER ESSENTIAL Fer STOCK
Ample Supply Should Be Available In
Winter as Well as Summer-Tank
Heater Not Needed.

Water should be available in ample
quantities for the stock In winter rs
we'll as in summer. 1t Is one of the
best physical regulators that the ami
mails can have and it goes into the
building of blood and flesh just as
much rs does the feed which you give
the animals.
1t is well to have the water as warm
as possible in winter as the stock will
drink more freely of it than they will
of cold water. This does not mean that
it is necessary to install tank heater
for all kinds Of stock. For most Of
the live stock all that Is necessary Is
to pack hot manure around the tank
several inches deep and to break the
ice several times day In order that
the animals may drink.

BEST PLACE FOR SEED CORN
Well Ventilated Room With Artificial
Heat, If Needed, Should Be Had
for Curing.

Word is being sent to the farmers
Of Minnesota to take special pains In
drying and storing their seed corn this
fall. c. p Bull, university farm, St.
Paul, secretary of the state commit
tee Of food production and conserva-
ton, says:
1.-The amount Of moisture to be re-
moved from the corn this fall Is larger
than usual. A well ventilated room
with artificial heat, If needed, should
be provided for curing. Care should
be taken, however, not to dry the
corn too rapidly. The temperature OF
the drying room should be kept some
where between GO and 20 degrees. The
ears should be hung up by the double
string method or should be put on
hangers or trees; it should not be
dumped in pile in bin.
"A double allowance, II it can be
had, should be saved, in order to ad-
nit of more rigid selection next
spring.
1.-THE present indications are that
there will be good demand for seed
corn"

POTATO DIGGER ADAPTED FOR HARVESTING PEANUTS.

If Southern growers are to save tn"
largest peanut crop the country ever
has grown, now ready for harvest the
best possible methods Of harvesting.
picking and storing the crop must he
employed. Many farmers are growing
peanuts this year for the first time.
Mistakes in harvesting may result in
serious losses. The methods OF gath
ering and storing described here are
in use by the most successful growers.
Harvesting.
AS no definite rule can be given by
which to determine when peanuts are
ready to dig. each grower must depend
largely upon his own judgment. In
the lower South, where frOstS do not
occur until quite late the vines assume
yellOWiSh color when the peanuts
are mature. Peanuts should be dug
when the vines have the greatest num-
Der of mature pods. Beginners In pea
nut growing should be careful not to
dig too soOn as immature nuts shrivel
and are light in weight when cured.
A few early formed peas are likely to
sprout before digging time, especially
If there Is period of rainy weather
about the time the peanuts are matur-
Ing, but usually the loss by sprOuting
is not sufficient to justify premature
harvesting.
Peanuts ordinarily are plowed from
the ground with turnpow which has
the moldbOard removed to prevent
throwing dirt over the vines. This pillow
should be regulated by means Of
wheel attached to the beam SO that the
peanut root can be cut off at any de-
sired depth. The machine potato dig
ger does very satisfactory work and
Will dig eight to ten acres a day. This
machine removes the peanuts from
the ground and also shakes off the
soil. leaving the vines lying upon the
surface. AS the machine digger i3
rather expensive its use is practicable
only where IL considerable acreage Of
peanuts Is to be dug
After the peanuts are dug, q gang
of WOrkmen shake the vines free from
IIic SUI anu illIOW tHtlli III sinai
lunches. Whore the machine digger
Is used, this shaking is unnecessary,
rs the machine frees the peanuts from
the soil. The vines are left spread on
the ground or in small punches for
three or four hours and are then
placed in small stacks around pole to
cure. If peanuts are allowed to lie
exposed for a considerable time after
digging. the pods become diScolOred
and lose in weight and the leaves drop
Off in handling.
The poles for the peanut stacks
should be three or four inches in diam
eter and seven to eight feet long.
These poles or stakes are set into the
ground - to IS inches and are well
tamped to make them firm.
Before starting the stack two pieces
Of lath. scrap lumber, or sapling cut
from the woods. about IS inches in
length. are nailed at right angles to
the stake eight inches from the ground
In order to prevent the peanuts coming
in direct contact with the soil. In
starting to build the stack q few vines
are laid across these pieces and the
stack is then built up by successive

the easier way. AS one holds the

scales show. The "bean-and-pea"
scales can be used in the same way.

When the stack has reached the de
sired height, a bunch of vines Is rolled
together and pressed down over the
point of the stake to form top, or
a little dry grass or a few weeds may
be used for this purpose.
1t is not advisable to use anything
for topping out the small stacks that
will prevent the circulation Of air A
heavy cover or covering Of green or
wet hay will invariably cause the pea
nuts to spoil.
Curing in barns is not advisable
either when curing peanuts for market
or where the entire plant Is fed to
stock, as the crop will cure better in
small stacks than when stored in bulk.
After the nuts have been cured In the
stack from four to six weeks, those
intended for feeding purposes may be
stored in barns or sheds
Where stakes are difficult to secure
and labor is scarce peanut growers
sometimes rake the peanuts into wind
rows with hayrake and stack them
like hay. In doing this they should
cure little longer before stacking
than when they are to be stacked In
small stacks around stakes. If the
weather is dry during the curing and
stacking and hogs can be turned into
the field to save the peanuts left, there
Peanuts should cure In the stack at
least three or four weeks before pick
ing or thraShing, in order to allow
the pods to become dry and the peas
firm
Peanuts are still picked by hand in
some sections, especially when the
grower has only a few acres. Hand
picking is very laborious and dusty
task. The expense Of picking by hand
is greater than by machinery, and as
1t is difficult to get enough labor for
handwork machines are used by prac-
tically all large growers.
Storing on Farm.
The farmers safeguard in the mat
ter of prices obtained for peanuts
lies largely in his ability to hold at
least q portion Of his crop through the
winter. Farmers should be prepared
to hold their crop for time rather
than place it upon the market during
the autumn. when the prices are gen.
orally lowest. In order to do this, suit
able storage facilities are necessary.
Frequently the bags of peanuts are
simply piled in an open shed or in a
barn. where they are not properly pro-
tected Occasionally the bags are
stacked upon the ground In the field
without even the protection Of can.
vas cover. Neither of the methods
mentioned should be followed. because
the peanuts would be injured by mols,
ture and subject to the rayages OF
rats, mice and other rodents. A build.
ing suitable for storing peanuts need
not be expensive.
