Autumn Time for Seeding Lawns.

Springtime is commonly considered
to be seedtlme, but with lawns better
results often are obtained by seeding
at some other season. Except, per-
haps, in the northern tier Of states
and in New England, says the United
States Department of Agriculture,
early autumn seeding is much more
satisfactory than spring seeding South
of the latitude of New York spring
seeding should rarely If ever be prac-
ticed. There are good reasons for
this rule. Young grass does not stool
well In spring and summer and is not
sufficiently aggressive to combat crab
grass and other summer annual weeds,
In the area south of this and north
of the Potomac and Ohio rivers the
time is early In September. The re-
seeding Of an old lawn should be done
at the same season as new seeding

Ing operations will be conducted hence
forth on a purebredsire basis. This
includes all classes Of domestic live
stock, including poultry. ,
In some counties Of limited area
the number of farms is relatively
small. Gordon b. Nance, county agent
of Oldham county, KY, points out, how
ever. that although his county has only
1,0S6 farms, 10 per cent of the farmers
have signed enrolment blanks, which
signifies active participation in syste-
matte live stock Improvement work.
Other counties in which 10 per cent
or more of the farmers are using pure
bred sires exclusively are: Pulaski
county, Va, 80 per cent; Kittitas coun.
ty, Wash, is per cent; Greene county,
Ohio, 13 per cent, and Orange county,
Va, 10 per cent. In this connection
the bureau Of animal industry points
out that the proportions are for all
farms and that the percentages for
farms in which live stock is the prin-
cipal market product probably would
be much higher.

FAvoRITEs AMONG THE FURs
Rage for Black PeItry 10 In Evidence
Iono-Haired Furs Are In
Limelioht.

This year one or two of our favorite
furs have lost just bit Of ground, as
serts a fashion correspondent In the
Kansas City Star. Take squirrel, for
instance. Never were there such soft,
lovely dove shadings in anything else,
and last year, and the several years
before that, the woman who had no
trimmings of squirrel about her was
the unusual and marked woman. This
year the rage for black furs has
pushed all other furs aside; hence we
revel in lynx, caracul and other black
furs. And 1t is strange, considering
this vogue of black fur, that seal
holds so small q place in trimmings.
1t is wonderfully becoming fur, but
this years use of it is confined largely
to bands on evening coats of gorgeous
fabrics and colorings. Even the rab-
bits skin is given more popular
place in trimmings, due to the great
er popularity of long-haired fur no
doubt.
But for coats, while kolinsky, mole
mink, raccoon, muskrat, and other furs
have their following, seal is the su-
preme favorite, trimmed, of course, in
every other fur seen in the market.
I While brown and maple sugar and
cocoa are the smart season shades
taupe has been gaining ground for the
last year and the taupe furs and gray
furs, especially fox, are clamoring
again for first place.
And so, if your fur box contains
pelts that are not so desirable now
they will wait. And If it contains
pieces that are too small to serve, buy
little to add to them, not new fur,
because the difference will show too
readily. But make a raid on your
friends fur box or visit the places that
sell used clothing. Oh, of course, If
you can buy all new and all handsome
furs, why just forget all about this
kind of advice, toss 1t away and throw
your money as far as you please

GETS EWES THROUGH WINTER
Something More Than Simple Ration
Necessary to Secure Strong
Lambs In Spring.

1t is possible to carry breeding ewes
through the winter on single ration
of corn silage, clover or alfalfa hay,
but to produce strong lambs of good
condition and have the ewes give suf-
ficient milk, something more than a
simple ration must be fed.
If corn silage of good quality, with
a heavy yield of grain, is fed along
with clover hay, good results should
be secured, advises the animal hus-
bandry section of the Iowa experiment
station, If only limited amount of
grain is fed four to six weeks before
lambing. However, If the amount Of
grain in the silage is small 1t will be
advisable to feed one-half to one pound
a day of grain mixture of corn and
oats in addition to what sllage and hay
the ewes will eat for somewhat
longer period.

How to. Plant Fruit Trees.

To plant fruit trees instead of shade
trees 1t is first necessary to give the
trees plenty of room. Two perfect
trees will fill the back yard Of 30
foct lot, and any other trees in that
space will crowd them. One must
be prepared to give more care to fruit
trees than to shade trees, and spray
ing and pruning specimen 26 feet
high is quite job. Pear and cherry
trees need less attention than apples,
but a good yield of fruit requires not
less than three sprayings in a season.
and sometimes more than that. The
more vigorous shade trees will need
no spraying at all. unless attacked by
an unusual insect invasion.
There Is little doubt that the trou-
BILE given to mature fruit trees is well
repaid by their production, and there
Is no doubt whatever that fruit can
be produced in back yards equal in
quality to any on earth and far supe-
rior to that obtained in the markets,
because 1t can be ripened on the tree
and eaten when just right.

Fire Prevention.

The general program of instruction
concerning fire prevention is arranged
largely for the benefit Of school chill
dren. If these young persons can
be sufficiently impressed, much good
will be accomplished. Yet there is
much for the grown-ups to learn re-
gcrding the proper storage of coal. the
removal Of rubbish and other things
which, experience teaches, cause fires.
This campaign Of instruction is highly
important and should be given heed
by all having the welfare Of their com.
riunity at heart.

THINK BEFORE BUYING LAND
Hero Are Some Valuable Suggestions
for Those Who Contemplate
Establishing a Home.

Before you build it is necessary to
have parcel of ground. Too much
care cannot be taken in the selection
of site. Remember, it is the spot on
which you and your family will spend
many years, at least that is the gen.
eral supposition, for the building of
home is usually one of the highly i'm
portant happenings of ones life.
Location determines the character
of house and it has much to do with
the familys happiness and health. If
the person contemplating building a
home will observe the following sug
gestions when buying or selecting a
site he will save himself lot of future
trouble and at the same time make an
investment that will increase rather
than decrease in value. Here are the
suggestions:
Buy only in section that is high,
dry and healthful.
Locate in u neighborhood that is
likely to increase in value and always
be desirable for homes.
Ask about the water supply; where
the water comes from, If the local sys.
TEN is modern and whether the sup
ply is plentiful.
Churches. schools and stores should
be convenient
Find out If the section has all mod
ern subsurface improvements; sewers,
for instance
What is the tax levy? Compare 1t
with previous rates for years.
Why the increase or decrease, II
any?
Are gas and electricity easily OBJ
tainable?
Does the site need much grading,
seeding or planting?
What are the transit or transporta-
tion facilities?
What is the travelling time to place
of business?
What is the expense?
If the property meets these condi-
tions satisfactorily, then you may be
sure of your selection.

Music.

Music is one of the four necessities
of life. The other three are food, shell
ter and clothing. SO says Uberl
Urquhart, talking to convention of
men, who make music an industry
This is true, admitting that life is
on an emotional basis, which it is.
Any period of history is mirrored
in its popular music. Jazz music came
with the jazz period. 1t is passing out
as the national temperament becomes
normalized. If you want to keep an
eye on "the trend of the times" watch
the new music as 1t comes in. If we
react to wailing tunes, 1t will mean
that the public considers the outloot

Jeviat!1an,

Few people who have not actually
seen one can imagine the enormous
size Of full-grown whale. Beside
him all other animals appear insignlti-
cant. He would weigh down more
than 80 elephants if they could be
put into the pans of gigantic pair
of scales! A good-sized whale will
run to about rs feet in length, and
weigh 100 tons. Think what this vast
bulk means. A dray horse is huge
animal, yet the whale is hundred
times heavier. A single whale Is
about as welghty as 600 men. An OK
tongue weighs four or five pounds ;
a ton of oil has been obtained from
the tongue of the whale. In spite of
his huge size, the whale feeds upon
the softest and smallest things that
live in the sea. One species lives
almost entirely upon jelly-fish; another
whale feeds chiefly on marine crea-
lures SO tiny that millions and mil
lions are required to provide him
With one mouthful.

Ancient Welsh Customs.

The Welsh girl gives her lover n
birchen branch as a token that she
accepts him. In Wales, too, the May
pole about which the villagers danced
and played joyous games was always
a birch. THUS the "bedwen" was n
permanent feature of the village green,
and the greatest game Of all was to
steal the bedwen. This, when accom-
plished, was celebrated with peculiar
festivities. Possibly out of these mid
night marauding expeditions and their
accompanying festivities came the
superstition that on Walpurgls night
the eve of May day-witches and
warlocks held high carnival.

Just as essential as good slres. Often

Realty Ownership Thrift.

We find fewer spendthrifts among
the owners of real estate. They know
that the mere filing of judgment in
the county clerks office becomes a
lien on their real property-not as If
they could conceal their assets in
some out-of-town bank and when they
found their debts accommodating 81
lently steal away. Hence, 1t is to the
real-estate owners that the store
keeper looks for his best customers,

PLANT POTATOES EARLY
FOR BETTER YIELDS

Planting potatoes after the corn
has been put in, a practice followed
by many corn belt farmers, does not
produce the best results, according to
a five-year experiment conducted CO.
operatively by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture and the Iowa
experiment station. The fact that
the minimum growing temperature
for potatoes is fully 10 degrees lower
than for corn would make the reverse
of this practice seem advisable, and
yields from paintings made on vari-
u dates from early April to the
middle of June has proved this con-
tention to be sound. The early plant
ing also has the advantage of al
early fall market when prices usually
are better than a little later when
marketing is in full swing.
In this experiment the Rural New
Yorker variety was used and the dates
of planting were set at Today inter
walls, beginning April 10. The season
al rise in temperatures reaches the
40-degree line in central Iowa usuaIly
a little before the middle of April.
The best yields were obtained from
paintings made shortly after the tenn
perature passed the 4~0-degree line.
Paintings made after the middle of
May produced a successive decline in
yield, and between the first and last
paintings there was a spread of 65
bushels an acnes The average for the
five years for the April paintings was
124.4 bushels, and for the paintings
made the first half of June, TO-
bushels per acre.
