Macaroni Club Figured
in "Yankee Doodle" Song

The word "macaroni" in the song,
Yankee Doodle" is more than
merely nonsense. 1t is a remnant
OF eighteenth century English slang,
declares a writer in the Cleveland
Plain Dealer.
About 1772 a group of young Eng
lishmen of wealth and leisure, most
of whom had spent considerable
time on the continent and particu-
larly in Italy, formed a fashionable
organization which they called the
Macaroni club. The name was taken
from the fact that as one of their
peculiarities or Municipalities, they
served macaroni at the club dip
ners. The dish was then little known
in England, and was practically in
troduced in that country by the
Macaroni club.
The Macaronis also sought for
singularity in dress and manners.
They wore immense knots of artifi-
cial hair, projecting behind very
small cooked hats; carried walking
sticks adorned with tassels of bright
c%olors, and affected very tight jack
cts and knee breeches. "Macaroni"
soon came to be a derisive term
for an effete man, but in it's earliest
popular use it had something of the
suggestion Of such expressions as
"ritZy" and "high hat"

Bees Do Not Sting You
if You Display No Fear

According to the popular notion,
insects are physically unable to
penetrate the human skin no mat
ter how hard they may ply their
stingers, because the pores are
then closed, notes a writer in the In
dianapolis News. The United States
bureau of entomology investigated
and reported that the belief has
no foundation in fact. The singer
of a bee does enter the skin through
the pores, and these tiny openings
may be slightly affected by breath
ing, but the difference is not suf-
ficient to interfere with the opera
ton of the bees singer. If bees
do not sting a person while he holds
his breath or clenches his fists it
is not because they can not sting
under such conditions, but because
the person is then likely to be more
quiet.
Bees seem to be able to detect
the slightest sign of fear in a hui
man being and are stimulated to
sting by any quick, nervous move
ments. A person who remains quiet
and who shows no fear is not in
great danger of being stung. Bees,
however, are repealed by certain
body odors, and some persons do
not excite and anger bees as others
do.

Percheron First Among
American Draft Horses

Among draft horses the clean
legged Percheron has always held
first place in American markets,
something like lac, 900 of them hav-
ing been registered in the stud book
without counting the 10000 horses
of almost undistinguishable type in
the French Draft book, says a writer
in the New York Herald Tribune.
Gray was the prevailing color Of
the early Percherons imported to
this country, some of which came
from France almost n hundred
years ago. They. were lighter in
weight and more breedy than the
modern type, often showing coachy
conformation and action, with a
strong suggestion of Arab blood
about the head.
AS heavier trucks came in with
more and better pavements, increas-
ing weight behind the collar was de-
manded by the buyers, and this
brought into prominence the coarser
and more sluggish but heavier and
tighter-made Belgian horses that
sometimes tip the scale beam at
close to 1000 pounds. The breed
made wonderful progress in this
country until motor trucks were per-
fected, and seemingly fabulous
prices were reported for some of the
prize-winning stations both here and
in Belgium, where the government
has long supervised all breeding OPP
erations to eliminate the unsound
and unfit.

- FARM
Tories
ADVISED
ON CARE
Fertilization Is Regarded as
the Best Plan.

By Carl B. Bender Professor Of Dairy Hus-
culture.-WNU Service.
If the old myth that "cows talk
at midnight on New Years eve"
were true, many a cow would have
advised her owner long ago that
pasture should be considered a cash
crop.
Most farmers do not consider pas
ture as a cash crop, since they
never actually see any money be-
ing returned directly from the pas
ture. But the COW is the middle
man in this cas- 1t is because OF
this lack of understanding on the
part of dairymen that pasture lands
are the most neglected sources OF
farm revenue.
A complete pasture fertilization
program, which includes an appli-
cation of nitrogen fertilization at
the rate of $50 to 300 pounds per
acre in the spring, brings returns
in cash four to six weeks after the
fertilizer is applied to the soil.
Experimental work has been tried
out on a demonstration basis. The
results have been uniformly good.
More dairymen should make
plans this spring to treat their pas
lures the same as they treat their
other farm crops, and thereby get
more and cheaper milk from their
dairy cows.

also has long shanks and is well up
OF the legs, showing hook and part

Farmers Pay Weed Tax

Every farmer pays his share Of
the weed tax, with the average
amounting to about $3.50 a farm a
year, according to a crop produc-
ton expert at the University of Illi-
nois. Although much can be done
toward reducing this loss through
the use of a small tanning mill for
cleaning grain, farmers must often
have their seeds cleaned with spe-
cial machines of commercial seeds
men in order to remove the many
noXiouS weeds.

n STYLE show De Luxe for De
"A Ladies on this De Lightful
Spring day!
Betty Ann feels just a bit the
most elegant of the three for her
housecoat is superlative. She has
skirts" like the ladies in the
feminine yesterdays; her basque
is form-ftting her sash has a
bow, and her sleeves puff. The il
fusion is so perfect that she is
about to reach for smelling salts

Matrons Have Vanity, Too.
Mama, very young for her
years, can not resist styles that
bring more compliments her way.
The no-belt feature of this one is
definitely new, and does wonders
for the figure a bit past the slim
stage. The continuing collar,
which in soft p~astels is always
fattering, gives the break re-
quired by the all-in-one waist and
skirt. The fitted top and faring
bottom make for style plus COM
fort, a demand matrons, even
though youthful, always make.
Parties and Picnics.
Winifred on the left is privately
making up her mind to have a
housecoat, too; though she is
nightly pleased with the way her
print has turned out. She chose
this style because the fitted, brok-
en- waist line and front scanned
skirt are so very slenderizing.
She's on her way to the All meet
ing now and has only stopped
to remind Betty Ann of the picnic

Farm Purchases

Figures show that in 1885 over
$4,000 farm properties were sold at
a figure of $35, 200, 900 by the fed
eral land banks as compared with
9,700 properties valued at $28, 100,-
600 in 1895. Approximately rs per
cent of the farms sold by the land
banks last year were bought by
farm operators. During the past
three years farm operators have
largely displaced non-farmers as
heaviest purchasers of federal land
bank properties, officials have
pointed out.

Raising Geese

One acre Of rough, improbable
iand is enough on which to raise a
fine flock of geese but there should
be a small stream of running water.
If this ground is enclosed with wire
netting, the geese will be by them
selves, and not bother other poultry,
for they are apt to be quarrelsome
at feeding time. Geese should have
only ground grain, though they
thrive on oats after they are grown.
Geese have no crop in which to
soften their food so wheat and corn
are not suitable feed for them.
