Summer fa1low for one season, fol-
lowed the next year by a thoroughly
cultivated crop, is an effective way
to fight Canada thistles. The work
may well begin with fall blowing
to expose some of the thistle roots to
winter freezing. Then comes a season
of clean summer fallow, beginning
with another blowing just before the
thistles bloom. Implements that cut
Canada thistle shoots below the sur
face Of the ground are preferable. 4
cultivated crop is planted the follow
ing spring. Cultivation that is really
clean is essential Some hand-hoe-
ing usually is required. Canada
thistle does not Withstand dense
shade, therefore smother crops, such
as alfalfa hemp, millet, buckwheat,
sorghum, and field peas, are all help
full if good stands can be obtained. -

The amount Of feed required to
make a pound of gain increases as
the animal grows older. Yearlings
make from 25 to 40 per cent more
gain than mature cattle On the same
quantity of feed The fattening of
calves and yearlings requires more at
tention and skill, however, than is the
case with mature cattle Calves of
poor conformation, poor quality, and
slow-maturing type will not fatten
rapidly enough TO make desirable car
casses as yearlings. Generally it is
best to carry such calves about two
years as stockers before fattening
them.

Shopping Hints at Homes.

We rely too much on shopping

and too little on hints from the ''in-
side" AS matter of fact, there are
many hints as plain to see if we but
look. There are hints, too, in the
homes of our friends.
Shopping hints are not necessarily
hints about new styles or even new
ideas. They may be hints about new
things that are needed for your home.
Many an old, worn, or obsolete piece
of furniture, or cooking utensil, or
household implement. has given us
stronger shopping hints than the
most eloquent stylist.
Look in the clothes closets and cup
boards for shopping hints. AT this
time of the year you will find plenty
of them about. Old shoes suggest
new ones, or Worn-down heels on golf
shoes suggest a Carry-all trip to the
shoe repairer's. Moth holes or worn
garments let us know in advance that
some things will not "do" as we be-
lieved they would.
Then there are hints to buy our
moth bags before the moths begin
their feasting. Shoes that have be
gun to curve and sag remind us that
ave haven't bought a full supply of
trees. Look in at your children's
cupboards, too. Hints are ready to
spring at you in the way of clothes
obviously outgrown and requirements
that simply must be made.
While taking the hints, remember
last Spring. What clothes and things
were good buys. There are hints
what not to buy as we'll as what to.
If these hints are disregarded it
simple means another series of never
again" signs.
In your friends homes there are
present conspicuous hints on what to
buy, and what is so useful, and what
will add that needed touch, and what
you should not be without. Keeping

mand. or can she create demand for
what she can do, so that it will be
plad for adequately? There are few
women who cannot find some ability
that can be turned to monetary ac-
count.
A Common Difficulty.
The trouble is that many women
want to make money in ways entlfeiy
outside of their latent abilities. These
women see others accomplishing along
lines they would find agreeable, and
they crave doing just such things
Unless the homemaker has specific
abilities that are like those used in
, such ways. she is wasting time in at
tempting to succeed in doing the things.
The subject resolves itself only when
the woman follows thought with ac-
ton and makes list of her abilities.
If her sole accomplishment is along
the lines of cooking, she must decide
on what dishes she can find market
for and how. What dish has she
already gained a name for cooking?
She may find her friends delighted
with the chance to buy it from her.
Special day cookery is recommended.
Variety in Work.
Make dishes on specific days and
fill orders for them on those days only.
In this way several kinds of food can
he cooked without tireSome daily
repetition. Avoid monotony in your
work as much as possible, if you
would get enjoyment as well as money
from it. Disposing of food through a
nearby grocery store can often be done
by offering a commission on sales to
the man keeping the store.
NeedIewoman' Art.
One thing that a vast number of
women want to sell is their embroid-
cries. The pitfall in this is that the
women want to embroider what they
like, and then sell it. There is little
market for this sort of work. What
must be done is to find out what is
wanted, and then make it as well as is
humanly possible. No merely good
work is acceptable in the sewing line.
1t must be Of the highest grade. An
other difficulty is that women like to
embroider and so make most of their
own things of this sort.
Commissions, Sewing, Etc.
However, there are shops that sell
on commission. Here you must find
specific article to market, for if some
one else is doing what you want to do,
the field is covered. You must give
the shop something that it does not
have. If you can do plain sewing.
there is a market for this work, but it
is not highly paid and usually requires
going out by the day. Specializing in
some unique fancy work for which
there is a demand or for which you
can, by the nature of the article, Gre
ate demand, often brings in fine
monetary returns.
