ID UYERS in thrOngS are making
- their holiday pilgrimage to the
ribbon counters just now, looking for
suggestions for gifts. There is long
list of handsome and dainty articles
made of ribbon on display. with bags
Of many kinds maintaining tlleir place
as the favorite. Shopping bags con-
sumo more yards of ribbon than any
other one of the innumerable things
that are made of it, for these bags are
more decorative and more serviceable
than almost any other kind. Their
richness appeals to women and their
individuality Purchasers pick out the
style of bag they like, select the rib
bon and mounting that pleases them
most, choose a proper lining and put
them together in way to suit them
selves. If they need any coaching
those who sell the ribbons are there to
help them out
Three handsome bags as shown in
the picture are fine examples of rib
bon work. Plain satin and metallic
brocaded ribbon are used for the bag
at the left of the group. 1t is made by
gathering the brocaded ribbon along
its edges and sewing these gathered
edges to q panel of the plain ribbon.
For decoration a heavy silk or tinsel
cord is applied in loose knot aud
sewed fat to the bag with Invisible

THERE is no getting away from the
l. fact that there is an all-pervad-
ing glitter in the displays of dresses
for formal evening wear. 1t is a much
bespangled mode and the only thing
that saves it from being tawdry is the
discrimination that designers use in
choosing color according to the amount
of spangled surface in the dress, and
in toning down colors with black. Only
in all white, all black or combinations
Of the two, they allow themselves
dresses entirely covered with seQuins
But when colored sequins are used
they appear in panels or irregular bor-
ders with black, as sapphire blue Sc
gums with black satin and lace, or
.henna sequins with dark brown net
or satin. Beads also help out in this
frosty sparkle that has settled on win
ter apparel-and they have made their
appearance even on street clothes.
In the midst of so many dazzling RI
vels an evening gown that is quite
without sparkle is likely to achieve
much distinction. There are to be
found among the displays, beautiful
silks or metal tissue dresses. yelled

NECESSARY CARE FOR FOALS
AS Soon as Young Animal Gains
Strength Enough to Be on His
Feet Let Him Nurse.

Foals should nurse after they gain
strength enough to get on their feet
and walk around. In the case of weak
or very archaeological foals it may be
necessary to assist them in getting the
teat, but often an effort is made to
force them to nurse before they are
ready. Nature takes its own time on
such occasions, and hllrrying and bus
thing may do more harm than good.
Before the foal nurses wash the mares
udder with warm , per cent solution
of a good coal-tar disinfectant and
then rinse with warm water. The first
milk which comes from the mare is
known as colostrum and acts as
physic on the foal, causing the fecal
matter in the intestines to be dis
charged: Hhence the folly of milking
the mare before the foal comes merely
because there appears to be too much
milk in the udder. If the contents of
the bowels are not elected naturally
within twenty-four hours. two to four
tablespoonfuls of castor oil shaken in
milk should be given, and it also may.
be advisable to inject warm water or
two ounces of castor oil into the bow
els. Repeat this treatment every three
or four hours until the bowels move,

BREEDING sIREs AND DAMS
Figures Given Representing condi-
tions On More Than 1000 Farms
in United States.

Developments in the Better Sires-
Better Stock" campaign have resulted
in figures showing the relative number
of males and females kept for breed
ing purposes. Following are the ratios
based on more than 100000 head Of
stock of all kinds listed with the
United States department of agricul-
ture:
Cattle ............1 bull to 1So cows
Horses ............1 stallion - 1863 mares
Swine .............1 boar to l1.5 sows.
She ep.............1 ram to 81 ewes.
GoatS..............1 buck to 26.6 does.
Poultry...........1 rooster to 1873 hens.
Other poultry,
geese, ducks.
turkeys, etc.,
(average)........1 male to 85 females
These figures represent conditions
on more than two thousand farms in
various parts of the country, and are
believed to be typical of other farms.
They show the Importance of placing
stress on quality in sires. since in
practically all cases sire is the par
ent of very much larger number
of offspring than the average female
animal.

If the kidneys are not in a healthy
