FOR BREAKFAST.
There arc several things which en
tier Into the -right kind of n breakfast
first, tho Individual to be
served, age, state of
health, occupation, sea
son and climate, as well
as the supplies to bo ob
tained. The old standbys of
bacon, toast, coffee, pro-
ceded by some sort of
fruit Is tho breakfast of the average
person. It Is the meal which most
housewives complain about the often
st," being hnrd to givo variety.
Grapes aro ono of tho fruits most
nJoyed In the fall and are a most
wholesome fruit; apples, pears and
peaches all have a wholesome acid,
very beneficial to the digestion.
Plain boiled rice makes a welcome
1)rcakfast cereal; omelets of various
"kinds glvo a chango from tho every
day shell-cooked, poached or fried egg.
A most appetizing method of serving
eggs Is to drop them into 'Individual
ramekins, cover with cream, dot with
"bits of butter and season with salt
nnd pepper; plnco In the oven in a
lfsh of hot water nnd bako until the
eggs nro set.
Where fresh mackerel Is obtained,
tto moro tasty dish can bo offered thnn
broiled mackerel or tho fish backed In
cream. Place It In n dripping pan
with n little water, skin sldo down,
nnd plnco In tho hot oven; when tho
wntcr has evaporated pour over tho
fish a cupful of good cream; heat
through and serve, adding tho season
ings at tho Inst, not to curdle tho
cream, although that need not entirely
spoil tho dish, but It docs detract from
Its appearance.
Chops, liver nnfl bacon, sausages of
various kinds, aro all meats used for
breakfast. Onjy u small portion should
be served, as It is much better for tho
health to cat meat but once a dny and
that at tho heavy meal, or dinner.
not breads nro liked for breakfast,
and griddlo cakes tho year round
never seem to !oso their populorlty.
Tor tho Sunday breakfast It Is wlso
to have an entire change. As It Is a
meal of moro leisure than overy-day
breakfasts, It may bo a little moro
elaborate.
A fruit that is subacid Is best to
servo In tho morning; a cereal with
cream Is given, though tho practlco of
serving acid fruits nnd cereals with
joreaxn ts quite general.
Tho noxt best thing to understanding
tho wholo ot any subject, Is to bo
awaro of that part of It we do not
understand. Whately.
A drop of Ink may make a million
think.

Then rcmovo them, lay In cold wntcr,

FASHIONABLE COAT
After reviewing coats made for the
small girl It seems that they range
through as great a variety of mate
rials, and almost as great a varloty
of Btyles, as coats for grown-ups. All
tho soft, woolly goods, several fur
fabrics and plushes, velvet In vnrlous
colors, and nil-fur coats promise a
season of rich and comfortable out
door wear for tho little miss.
It Is ,n fad of tho season to hnvc a
hat or bonnet nnd n tiny muff made
of tho same material as the coat.
From top to toe almost everything
small ladles wear is of one kind of
cloth. For trimming, narrow bandings
of tho shorthalrcd and least costly
furs nre used. Smocking and shirring
play Important roles In making coats
of wool velours; Bolivia nnd slmllnr
cloths, nnd they are at their best on
velvet. But conts of fur-fabrics or
plush, like that shown in the picture,
must bo made on the plainest lines.
All-fur conts of whlto rabbit with
caps and muirs to match make the
most captivating sets Imaginable.

FOR LITTLE MAID.
They have added coiffures with loops
of hair to other high and stately styles,
and nro showing others with smnll
puffs and sovernl short curls pinned
nt the crown of tho head In tho back,
for those who like a lower hnlrdress.
Among high coiffures thero Is one
design In which a band of waved halt
Is wound about tho head llko n wide
band of ribbon, near tho forehead. It
allows a few orderly waves and ring-,
lets to escape about tho face, and the
bnck hair Is arranged In puffs nt the
top of the crown. This Is an unusual
and very finished-looking hnlrdress.
A similar coiffure Is shown In the
picture. In this design nil the hnlt
Is waved nnd tho front hair Is combed
back over n foundation which raises It
ut the top of the bend. At tho back
a cluster of curls Is pinned below tho
crown nnd a band of waved hair la
brought across above tho' nnpe of tho
neck. It will bo seen that ornamental
pins nro nn essential part of this coif
fure they finish and support It.

DAIRY
FACTS
VARIATIONS IN CREAM TESTS
One of Most Common Causes Is Differ
ence In Amount of Water Used
for Flushing.
There nro many causes for Uio vnrl-
lions sometimes found In cream tests.
Frequently would bo a better word to
uso thnn sometimes In connection with
this subject, for varlntions In tho tests
may nlwnys bo looked for. A few of
tho causes arc hero given.
If the milk of a herd of cows whose
nverngo test Is 4 per cent Is separated
so that tho cream tests 40 per cent
and tho milk suddenly drops to 3,0
per cent of fat, as will often occur,
tho cream will then test only 35 per
cent Tho nmount of fat lost In the
skim milk Is not nffected to nny ap
preciable extent by the richness of the
milk separated.
Ono of tho most common causes of
variation In tho test ot cream from
tho farm separator Is a variation in
the nmount of water or skim milk
used for flushing out the crenm at the
end of tho run. It is apparent thnt
especially where n smnil quantity ot
cream is separated, n marked differ
ence In the richness of tho crenm may
bo made by u change In tho nmount ot
tvntcr or skim milk ndded. It Is nn
easy matter to vary n pint or moro In
the water or skim milk used nnd this
klono may easily chango tho per cent
Df fnt in tho cream from 2 to 5 per
:cnt. Tho per cent of fnt In tho crenm
nay be readily changed, ns Is well
tnown, by adjusting tho cream screw.
Tho cream screw, however, Is not
chnnged very frequently nnd It Is not
tho common cause of the varlntions
In the test which constantly occur nnd
which causes so much friction between
tho buyer nnd seller of cream.
SCRUB SIRE NOT PROFITABLE
carmers Advised by Ohio Expert Not
to Sell Head of Herd Until
Daughters Been Tested.
.Can n bull bo worth nearly $3,000
m one year In n dairy herd? Tho nnl
mal may bo worth tills much or oven
more, according to figures given by
Prof. O. O. Ilnyden of tho Ohio cxporl
mcnt station.
Ho shows that In tho stntlon dnlrj
herd one bull produced daughters av
eraging 153 pounds more buttcrfat an
nually than their dams. If ten daugh
ters produced milk for sir years, the
total production of this Biro would be
Purebred Bull. i
worth $2,750 moro than thnt of a bull
that produced no Increase, If butterful
Is worth SO cents a pound.
Since tho vnluo of tho bull can b
determined only by tho milk nnd but
tor yields of his daughters, farmer
aro advised not to sell tho dairy sire
until his daughters havo been tested.
Buyers should not dlscrlmlnnto against
an old bull If ho has some high-pro
duclng daughters, for his valuo cannot
bo determined until he is at least fout
years old.

For, after nil, It Is tho farm that

Tt Is tho farm that makes tho farmer
and not the hqrd. In the long run
take the country through, thero will
bo no great breeders except those that
aro great farmers, becauso tho herd
Is subordinate to the farm and Is used
for tho purposo of magnifying the
farm.
RICHNESS OF A COW'S MILK
Mistake to Expect That It Can Be In
fluenced by Character of Feed
Given to Animal.
It seems reasonable to expect; that
tho richness of milk could bo In
fluenced by tho chnracter of tho feed
given to tho animals. However, it has
been thoroughly proved that for all
practical purposes It is Impossible.
Tho richness of tho cow's milk de
pends upon Inheritance nnd can no
moro bo changed permanently by the
feed thnn can tho color of her hair.
If the milk cannot bo changed in rich
ness by tho feed It Is clearly Impos
sible for cream to bo Influenced In
tlils way.
Is Work Too Hard?
Many kinds of work wear out tho
kidneys, nnd kidney troublo makes
nny kind of work hard. It brings
morning lameness, backache, head
ache, nervousness, rheumatism nnd
arlnnry troubles. If your work Is
