to be essential to the best results. es-
pecially during the breeding season.
Peanuts. cowpeas. and dried garden
peas give quite good results and some
times are used in place Of Canada
peas when the latter are high In price.
A variety of good, hard, thoroughly
dried grains Is necessary. Grains that
are In poor condition should not be
fed. Old grains that are hard are
much better than new. soft grains. es-
pecially for pigeons with squads.
New, soft grains OF any kind should
never be fed to pigeons. as they will
cause bad results in the flock. often
resulting I'm heavy loss. particularly
among the squads. Feed whole corn
and avoid cracked corn, rs the latter
often causes canker. Pigeon corn.
which Is smaller and harder than COM
mon corn. Is used extensively for
pigeons. Many pigeon breeders reduce
the proportion Of corn during the sum-
mer. feeding from one-half to three
fourths less than In the winter. Red
wheat Is considered better than white
wheat by many pigeon breeders. Good
wheat screenings are often fed with
success, but are not as desirable as
clean, sound. hard grains.
Feeding Salt and orIts.
Pure drinking water, grit. sifted
oyster shell, and charcoal should be
kept before the pigeons at all times.
Salt Is fed to pigeons In various FORMS
and a supply is generally considered
essential. Pigeons not accustomed TO
eating fine salt may eat too much n

spring or early summer without a
nurse crop. t3) seed In the late sum-

Squads are reared and fed by both

pigeons have plentiful supply Of
grain and fresh, pure water at all

II rapid growth of the young Is to he

squads shortly after they themselves

at that time. Care should always be
taken not to frigbten or disturb
pigeons or squads any more than is
absolutely necessary. II the parent
birds die the squads may be removed
to other nests where they is only one
squad of the same size. or they may
be fed artificlally. although this proc
ess takes considerable time, says the
United States department Of agricul-
ture.
What to Feed Pigeons.
{ Many varieties of grains are used in
feeding pigeons. A good mixture Of
staple grains may be made Of equal
parts by weight Of small whole corn,
hard, dry wheat, Kafir corn, Canada
peas, and vetch, with a small guam
tity (about per cent each) of hemp
and mlllet seeds added during the
melting period. Other grains which
may be substituted for or added to

Is in perfect accord with the present
President, wants America to go into

- 0CCASIONALLY there Is woman
~ who can undertake to choose the
superb In her apparel, and much more
occasionally there is one who can af-
ford to be daring. To do these things
requires a personality that is re-en-
forced and expressed by such attire.
But these are the exceptional women
the rare blossoms, greatly admired,
but less loved, thaD sweet, familiar
ones.
Two evening dresses are shown here,
one Of them deserving to be called
superb and acknowledged to be dar-
ing. Being in black, it carries off Its
eccentricities better than it would in
color. A full draped skirt Of supple
panne velvet and a draped bodice that
leaves the body uncovered to the waist
line, under the arms, make fOunda-
ton for an overskirt Of beaded net.
Above the waist, long scarf of ma
lines wells the back and arms, an in
sert of malines just above the waist
line saves the day for mOdesty, in a
bodice which chooses to conceal more
of the back than its predecessors have.
For OrnamentatiOn there are large ro-
settles of filter jet and they are in
black, also. From head to foot, this
