There is no lac!; of variety in suits
this spring-there is style for every
figure. Here is one that fulflls all the
requirements of the mode-with short
coat, slim lines and ingenious decora-
ton. There is not an inch of cloth
to spare in the skirt, and having saved
to the utmost here, the designer was
able to indulge the coat in sprightly
ripples at each side of back panel.
Embroidery in braided pattern of the
same color as the cloth, and very small
buttons make an elegant decoration.

SELECTION OF POULTRY FEED
Reduce Cost by Using Low-Prieed Sub
stitute GraIns-oats Are Cheap
er Than Corn.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
While farmers, as rule, have fed
their poultry the grain that was cheap
est on the farm, many poultry spe-
cialists and most small poultry keep
ers have been accustomed to use their
favorite poultry feeds without consid-
ering either the quality of the sup
ply or the possibilities of using cheap
er substitutes.
Under normal conditions, corn In
nearly all parts of the United States
is the cheapest poultry feed. At the
present time, oats are nearly every
where cheaper than corn. When corn
goes down to $3.50 a bushel, oats
should be 75 cents and barley $1.20
a bushel to give the same value for
the money fed to poultry, as corn.
The common characters and condl-
lions of grain which roughly determine
their values as poultry feeds are cas-
lily estimated by the eye, or by weight
or bulk in measure or containers Of
known capacity.
Good cracked corn is hard, bright,
clean, free from soft and chaffy par
ticles. Corn that is crushed (not
cracked), and shows much soft, chaffy
and scaly matter, should be rated pro-
portionately below good cracked corn
In feeding value. Cracked corn in
which any considerable amount Of
greenish discoloration appears should
be rejected as unfit for poultry.
Oats with tho hulls on are at once
seen to contain more indigestible mat
ter than corn and wheat. Again, the
Indigestible hulls covering oats make
that grain less palatable to poultry
and its feeding value must be discount
ed.
Oats weighing less than the United
States standard Of 80 pounds to the
bushel should be discounted in price
according to the shortage in weight,
while for weights above the standard
the usual discount In price may be
reduced.

Poetry and Pretty Girls.

Sincerity is the only thing that will

doesn't understand it.
