BEFORE YOU
START TO SEW

Most of the serious mistakes that
the housewife makes when she under
takes to do her own dressmaking are
made before her task is really begun.
If she starts right the rest is fair
sailing. This seems. perhaps, like an
lexaggeration. but isn't it true when
you come to think about it?
In the first place there is the choice
Of the pattern. That is Of enormous
importance. Be sure that you select
one that is not too difficult, one that
is suitable to the material you have
on hand and suitable to yourself.
Then be sure that you have the right
size. If you are not sure, get the
saleswoman at the pattern counter to
measure you. 1t is false economy to
| use a pattern that is not your size
just because you happen to have it
on hand or because a friend can lend
! it to you.
Then study well your goods. Re
, member that with most goods there
is right and wrong side, and with
some an up and down. There may
! this is not very obvious, SO, no mat
ter what the material, examine it
with this in mind-to see whether it
has an up and down. right or wrong
or left and right. Velvet and vel
veteen and corduroy have an up and
down in the weave Of the fabric. al
though it is not very apparent. Well.
you should always cut these fabrics
SO that when you stroke the goods it
| is smoothest from the hem OF the
skirt to the waist or from the cuff of
the sleeve to the shoulder. This
makes the fabric appear richer and
darker. Sometimes with panne vel
, vet, however, you use it just the re-
verse way-it depends on whether
you want to have the material appear
lighter or darker. But whatever you
cut the same way Of the goods.
With broadcloth the rule is re-
versed. AS you stroke downward 1t
must be smooth. With this mate
rial there is a right and wrong and
an up and down, SO think twice before
you start in cutting.
Now, arrange every piece on the
fabric before you cut it out Don't
start and say to yourself: Il may as
well get this piece cut out. It has
to be cut some time and when I get
more material have on hand" Wait.
be sure that all the pieces are
coming out before you start with the
scissors. And do make sure just how
much seam allowance is made in the
pattern you are using. Be sure that
you are making the right allowance
for hens; be sure also that you have
the right skirt length. II you are
short and, therefore. can take a skirt
shorter than that specified in the pat
tern don't make full allowance for
the hem. 1t is foolish to make the
pieces any larger than you require
them.

THEIR BAD HABITS.

A well known child specialist says
most frequent bad habits permitted by
mothers in their young children. You
read this doctors words telling just
why crackers that might be harmless
eaten one at a time after q meal or rs
Well-timed between meal, are un-
wholesome when munched continu-
ously. Your children MUNICH crackers
in this way. too. you have to admit it,
but you feel as il it were too late to
change. They are used to crackers,
you reflect, and it is too late now to
break them of the habit.
And the chances are that you have
overemphasized the strength Of that
habit. Simply withhold the crackers
for a day or so and you will probably
be able to break the habit without
any really great rebellion.
Lots of children's bad habits are
much more easily broken than we
think. We really haven't the courage
to see. We high-strung mothers Of
the twentieth century perhaps dread
more than did our huskier fore
mothers the prospect of letting a
stubborn child cry. And so our chill

to their screams and walls. They
know that we will probably succumb
before we know it. And often we

five minutes longer. we would have
gained the day.
A great child specialist tells us that
if we teach a child correct habits of
eating during the first few years of
its life we have accomplished much
And there is no gainsaying that many
a bad habit in eating that persists
through life is acquired within the
first three or four years of our lives.
The habit of eating without proper
chewing, the habit Of eating rapidly.

spoon too far down and the habit Of
poking our fingers into our food

FLOORS ARE BEST
Cement 10 Adapted to Long Perma.
, nent Buildings Where an Arti-
+ f1cial Floor 10 Needed,

|(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
The best kind Of floor depends
upon the soil and the use Of the poul-
try house. On light, sandy, we'll
drained soils a dirt floor is satisfac-
tory, especially for small or colony
hen houses. Such floors should be
from 2 to 6 inches higher than the
outside ground surface, and it IS ad-
visable to renew them each year by
removing the contaminated surface
down to clean soil, and to refill with
fresh sand or fne gravel and earth.
"A board floor is generally used where
the level Of the floor in the house is
from 1 to 8 feet above the ground sur
face and in portable houses on land
which is not we'll drained. Board
floors harbor rats and rot quickly,
and should be raised some distance
of the ground, so that cats or dogs
can get under them, which also allows
q free circulation Of air to prevent
the wood from rotting. Cement floors
are adapted to long permanent build
ings, brooder houses, incubator eel
lars, and to all permanent houses
where an artificial floor is required
and can be built on the ground level.
These floors are easy to clean, very

where and everywhere about the
house. The owner or attendant should
enter the house frequently through
out the day, and as often as he finds
one Of the pullets nesting in a seclud-
ed spot he should pick the bird up
and place her in n trap nest. After
he does this several times the pullet
becomes accustomed to the artificial
nests and seeks them intuitively
when she is ready to lay eggs.
Make the Nests cozy.
OF course, it is essential to make
the nests as attractive and cozy as
possible, and this is accomplished by
providing them with plenty of clean
litter, as ofteE as new supply Of
straw is needed. Furthermore, in par
ticularly Objectionable cases it pays
to clean all the litter from the floor
of the house, in order to freak the
hens of laying promiscuously wher-
ever they desire. BY removing the
straw and bedding, the floor Of the
house is not so attractive as nest
ing spot for the hens and pullets, and
hence they are forced to seek the trap
nests.
The purpose of trap nesting the
flock is to ascertain which hens lay,
either for determining what record
they make or for identifying their
eggs during the Matching season, so
that pedigree records are possible.
Trap nesting requires a considerable
amount Of attention, but is valuable
aid in developing a flock Of poultry
by breeding for egg production.
