TAKE CARE OF FERTILIZERS
Ing for Barnyard Manures-Scat-
ter Over Fields.

Different farmers have different
ways and means of caring for their
barnyard manures, but suffice 1t to
say, do not let 1t become exposed to
the rain nor the sun; If possible, keep
1t piled up in order to prevent the es-
cape of gases which are rich in plant
food; as often as practicable, haul the
manure to the fields, scatter and i'm
mediatey plow it under. However, If
manure is to be plowed under, the
planting of crops on that land should
not be too long delayed, because water
from rains cause much of the soluble
plant food to leach out If there Is no
available growing crop to take up this
plant food.

VALUE OF SILAdE TO
FATTEN BEEF CATTLE
TWo-Year-0Id Steers Prove to
Be Most Satisfactory.
Feeding Llnseed Meal and Glover or
Alfalfa In Addition Is Recon- n
mended-FuII Feeding of Corn
Is Not Favored.

Experimental work by the Univer.
sity of Missouri College of Agricul-
ture has shown
That highly satisfactory beef can
be produced from two-year-old steers
by feeding the corn as silage, together
with linseed meal and clover or al
falfa hay, instead of full feeding on
shelled or ear corn.
That the price of feed and the pre-
MUM on heavily fat cattle during the
past five years has not warranted full
feeding over long periods, when cattle,
which are two years or more OF age
are used.
That one acre, yielding 40 bushels
of corn, or eight tons of silage, If fed
as silage, together with 1,733 pounds
Of llnseed Oil meal and 1910 pounds

MALE BIRDS INCREASE EGGS
Breeding Pens Is OF Great
est Importance.

The use of males from heavy laying
lines upon good strong hens that are
fair layers will increase productivity
in a flock in a comparatively short
time. Heavy laying is an inherited
Characteristic, but 1t is inherited from
the male line rather than from the
female line according to high author
ity. The selection Of the males to be
used in the breeding pens is, therefore,
Of the greatest Importance IL the re-
suits are to be obtained.

WINTER SHELTER FOR GEESE
Shed Open on South Side With Plenty
of Straw or shavines Is Most
Satisfactory.

Except In stormy weather or in the
winter mature geese seldom need n
house. A shed open on the south side,
a poultry house, or barn usually Is
provided by breeders in the North, and
Is used by some breeders in the South,
says the United States Department of
Agriculture. Coops, barrels, or some
other dry shelter should be provided
for the young goslings. But wherever
they are the geese should have clean
place, with plenty of straw or shay
ings for the floor during the winter.

KEEP POULTRY FROM CATTLE
Unless Herd Has Been Found Free
From tuberculosis Fowls Should
Be Separated.

Poultry kept on dairy or general live
stock farms should not be allowed to
run with cattle unless the herd has
been tested and found free from tuber-
culosls. Poultrykeepers are beginning
to realize that If they are to buy
healthy birds they must get them from
places where the live stock Is known
to he free FROM tuberculosis.

Hot Water Pie Crust-One and
a half cups well sifted pastry flour,
one-half cup lard or other good,
solid shortening, one-half teaspoon
baking powder, one-half teaspoon
salt, one-fourth cup freshly boiling
water. This amount makes one
large round pie with top and bot
tom crust or two shells for cream
filings.
Sift the flour, baking powder and
salt, work in the lard with finger

Dear Mrs. Thompson. Every
spring my hair comes out in guam
titles. Isuppose this is only nat
ural. Kindly tell me what to do SO
that the hair will come back as
rapidly as possible. H. H. r.
More necessary, even, than wash
ing is airing the hair in summer,
when no matter how oily the scalp
NAV be, it should not be sham
puoed oftener than once a month.
Is to the airing, woman whose
tresses are thick should never fail
10 do them in two braids at night.
To twist them on the head and pin
there. is to invite thinness. One
braid is better than that, but the
scalp gets no refreshment even
then; but by making two braids
ventilation may be secured.
Preparatory to the airing part
should be put through the center,
from forehead to the nape of the
neck, and each half then brought
over the ear, in order to leave the
middle of the head free. The braids
should be loose
This is not to be done until
thorough brushing and airing OF
the locks has been given. For this
treatment a long bristle brush
should be chosen, and the hair di-
taken separately, should be brush
ed, beginning by placing the tips
of the bristles an the scalp. The
brush must then be drawn through
the locks down to the ends. This
should be repeated several times,
and each strand placed out of the
way as it is finished
The instant a sour odor comes,
washing must be done Only sham
pooling will clense the hair, and
nothing is more disagreeable than
the effect of perspiration. If there
is a tendency to oiliness, and be-
cause of warm weather an odor
comes quickly, 1 think an egg
shampoo is the best. For this raw
eggs are beaten, a tablespoonful of
water being added to each egg.
For an ordinary head of hair two
are enough. These eggs are rubbed
into the scalp and over the hair, no
soap being used. Should there be
the least trace Of perspiration aft
erward there may be a final rinse
in soda water, using a level tea
spoonful Of bicarbonate to a basin
full of water.
As this is drying in effect, it
should not be used unless neces-
sary. When drying it is well to let
the sun strike the head a little, but
not for more than five minutes.
1t is restful to the scalp if the
hair is dressed a different way in
The morning. in warm weather. In
the early part of the day, when
simple frocks are worn, it may be
twisted or braided at the back.

afternoon.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Have you
any solution that would keep the
skin little oily? The skin on my
face is SO dry that it peels Off
Also have you a. skin whitener?
BLONDY.
Apply cold cream to your face
every night before retiring = not
vanishing cream, but a skin food.
This will give the required oil and
prevent the peeling
A teaspconful of the tincture of
henzoin to an ounce of rosewater
forms a well known lotion. which
is excellent for whitening the skin
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Isn't it
the boys place to open doors and
ring doorbells when making a call?
1t seems to me that every boy l go
with waits for me to do it.
POLLY.
Yes, it is the boys place. I can't
understand why they are so willing
to let the girls take the initiative.
