COLD BATH AS BEAUTY AID
Woman Who Is Accustomed to Invig-
Grating Shower Finds II Precau-
tion Against Wintry Blasts.

The woman who Is accustomed to a
cold shower will find 1t a great precau-
ton against the cold of winter. 1t
should be taken the first thing In the
morning in q well-warmed bathroom.
Some enjoy the tepid shower, which
is afterward allowed to run cold.
The cold plunge is more taxing to
the delicate woman, and If shower
is impossible the cold sponge bath is
its best substitute, says a beauty ex-
pert. All of these cold baths should
be followed by brisk rubbing with
several coarse towels, so as to In
sure the healthy glow which imparts a
glorious tinge to the surface of the
body.
If your flesh Is fiabby, after washing
the face with warm water and soap,
dash the skin with cold water to which
has been added teaspoonful Of ben
zoin. A cold compress around the neck
at night will harden the flesh and re-
move the flabby appearance.
There are many women who, when
cold weather approaches, put on ar
mor-like clothing and shut themselves
in almost alright houses. This Is
wrong, Of course, both for beauty and
health. Some skins are sensitive to
cold and direct contact with wintry
winds is hard on them; but though
your cuticle may be delicate, 1t need
not prevent you from going out. A
coat of good skin food, well rubbed In
and busted over with powder, should
be applied before leaving the house.

ATTENTION GIVEN TO TOOLS
But One PIow Out of Four Ever
Wears Out, the Other Three Rust
Outflow About Yours2

How about the farm tools you used
this last season? Are they all In the
shed protected from the weather.
Have the polished parts been covered
with grease so they won't rust? If not
wouldn't this coming week be a good
time to round them up and put them
away? A neighbor told me Sunday
that he used the same gang pillow for
IA years, says writer in an ex-
change. He had 1t in the shed when
not In use. This kind of care relieves
him from worrying about the high
cost Of steel tools for next year as
none Of his tools are rusting out. One
pillow out Of four wears out--the 9TH
er three rust out. Is yours the one7

FATAL DISEASE OF TURKEYS
Authorities Claim That Overlooking
and Close Confinement Are
Causes Of BIackhead.

Some authorities claim that over
feeding and close combining cause the
fatal disease of blackhead, and when
poults are crowded in their feeding
liver soon enlarges, becomes diseased
and death Is the only result.
Various other sources are given as
the causes Of the blackhead In tur-
keys. and the suggestion is made that
the youngsters be kept on new ground,
away from the other domestic fowls,
free from wet and dampness, and fed
carefully so as not to weaken or strain
their digestive organs.

CONSTANT SUPPLY OF WATER
Good Use Can Be Made OF Tin Can
From Which Top Has Been Melted
Brick Holds II Steady.

Fresh clean water is kept before the
chicks constantly, and is kept clean
by using q tin can from which the
top has been melted with an opening
made in the open end three-fourths
inch long (high) and one-half inch
wide. The can is filed and inverted
In common earthen flower-pot sau-
Ger (open end downward), making an
automatic fountain which is raised one
and one-half inches from the floor of
the brooder or coop. If the fountain Is
used with hens, some way must be pro-
vided to keep the hens from knocking
the can over. Overcome this by plac.
ing brick on top Of the can.

SOME POTATO PARlNGS

Good seed potatoes, free Of
blight and rot, are always worth
saving for ones own future
crop, or to supply others.
Feed the Gull potatoes to the
hogs. Cook the potatoes thor
oughly and mix with cornmeal,
shorts or bran. Skim milk Is q
good addition.
Grading potatoes for market
increases the possibilities Of
sales and raises the price re-
ceived. Keep the culls on the
farms and save the cost Of haul
Ing.
Potatoes add succulence to the
dairy ration. Where corn silage
Is not available and there are
plenty of small potatoes, a peck
day will give a marked in
crease In the milk flow. They
should be introduced into the
ration gradually, and should be
run through a root cutter to
avoid the possibility of choking
the animal.-United States De-
partment of Agriculture.

RATION FOR LITTLE TURKEYS
Dry Grain, Free From Mustiness or
, Moldiness Is Easy to Feed-Bread
and Milk Is Good.

Dry-grain chick feed which is free
from mustiness or moldiness is easy
to feed and furnishes an excellent ra-
ton for little turkeys, though some
times little bread and milk or johnny
cake baked hard and fed dry can be
given.
