well beyond the side brims. A pair of
handsomely spread stiff wing were back
of the bows, and a heavy cord of velvet

the remaining trimming.

New fashions in dresaet are less strik

bowerer, they get a better welcome for
having a small proportion of oddities. The
first of the innovation that the artist pre
sents in her illustration ia a new form of
coat continue. In the pictured example It
wa dull green canvas, the skirt trimmed
with many rowt of narrow shirred black
satin was stitched all over in black, and
trimmed to match the skirt. The long
white satin ends of the chin bow were
dinposed severely down the front where
the cost ojiened and were held by the belt
that confined the coat. Yoke and epau
lettes were white satin.
Across the picture from thia is another
calling dress, one that is less novel, but
that was interesting because made of fig
ured taffeta. Its leaf brown ground was
a new shade of a now stylish color, and
this was dotted with scarlet. Ita Span
ish Bounce skirt was trimmed with bands
of black net edged with shirred black
baby width satin ribbon. The bodice,
edged with net bands to match, waa cut
low on a yoke of shirred liberty ailk. One
of the new black aatin belt crossed at the
back and came in front again, being lifted
to end in a bow at the bust line.

representative of the matinee girl'a attire.
This dress was blue gray doth, quite
simple but for its bolero fichu collar. That
was of white satin heavily stitched with
black, and was the reason for a dainty
white felt trimmed with blue and black.
More striking than any of these were
the two remaining costumes of this pic
ture. The left one waa in gingham-check-ed
mohair, a goods that is considered quite
the thing for street or journeying. This
model was a tailor suit in green and white
check trimmed with biaa folds of white
felting stitched on by one edge with black.

Thia suit waa echoed by the last of the

MATTERS OF INTEREST TO FARM
ER AND HOUSEWIFE.
Chances in Agricultural Conditions
Ituring ICecent Time - Value of
Wood Ahlies-I'eannta as Crop
Green Food for Htuck arm Notes.
Progress on the Farm.
Every farm differs in some respects
from all others, and rules governing
the methods in certain lo-alities may
be inapplicable elsewhere. Climatic in
fluences and diversities of soils make It
imperative that the farmer study the
characteristics and surroundings of hi
fnrm and improve according to his op
portunities. The farmer must contend
with changes of seasons, drouth, rains,
heat, cold and enemies which destroy
his crops. He can not adapt the soil
of hi farm to the crop, but must select
the crops for the soil. Plants thrive best
when the conditions are most favor
able; but the conditions suitable for one
crop may not be favorably to another.
There is more to learn onYslngle farm
than any farmer can master If be keep
pace with progress. System of farm
ing are changing. The reduction of the
cost of labor by the use of Improved
Implements has done much to revolu
tionize farming, and the eo-oerative
ystem is gradually working its way
Into farm methods, as with the cream
ery system of butter-making the use of
traction engines and the shipping of
milk, fruit nnd other produce by asso
ciations; yet the individual farmer Is
not suppressed, but Is attached more
securely to his farm.
Wood Axhes on the Fnrm.
A a fertilizer wood ashes stand high,
and may be used as medicine for farm
animals. For many years I have fed
them to stock, and believe they have
done much toward preserving the in
variably gooii health of the swine,
horses and cattle. Of course, there
may be a difference of opinion on the
subject, and I have never yet found a
veterinary surgeon who would recom
mend wood ashes as a medicine. Nev
ertheless, experience is sometimes
worth us much as theoretical advice.
My plan Is to keei wood ashes, char
coal anil salt, mixed together constantly
In the pen for the swine. Three parts
of wood ashes to one part of salt will
nut hurt the swine, and if the mixture
is kept before them all the time, and
fresh water Is given to them freely,
they will not eat too much to injure
their beiiitli. I believe such a mixture
Is a good preventive of swine cholera
and similar diseases. Certainly the
beneficial effects are quite apparent.
Clean wood ashes Is better than all
the condition powders for the farm
horses. The ashes can be given to the
horse twice a week in their oats at
the rate of an even teaspootiful each
time. If given carefully and regularly
I believe that no medicine will have to
be given to horses that are fairly treat
ed and cared for. Every one familiar
at all with farm matters must have
observed a certain habit In many horses
and cows to giuiw wooden posts, trees
and similar objects. This craving for
something which they do not get from
their dally food is satisfied when wood
ashes are administered regularly to
them. It Is just as natural for the ani
mals to desire this as for us to have a
craving for acids, salt and even pepper.
Wisconsin Agriculturist,
Peanuts.
Prepare the ground just as you do
for potatoes, making it fine and mellow
as possible, and throw It up into low
ridges, somewhat as sweet potatoes
are planted. Carefully shell the pea
nuts in order not to break the brown
skin that covers the kernel, riant the
last of May or early lu June, about two
feet apart, three or four kernels in a
place In the ridge; cover about two
Inches deep. They will soon come up.
Cultivate shallow nnd keep the weeds
down and the soli mellow until they
bloom, then hoe every two or three
weeks, or oftener if they need It, draw
ing the line soil well up to the plants
each time.
It Is a curious fact that the blooms
on the plant produce the tubers under
the ground, and some persons think It
necessary to cover tho blossoms, but It
Is not If the soil Is kept mellow and
loose, each fertile blossom sends down
a long root-like stem that pushes Its
way Into the ground, and the tuber, or
nut Is produced on the tip end of this
stem. As soon as ripe, or when the
vines frost, pull and throw Into piles to
cure. Most of the nuts will cling to the
roots, but sometimes they will have to
be dug. When cured pick off and rub
and shnke together to free from earth.
Oreen Food for -tock.
In summer the pasture is severely
taxed, not only to provide for a large
herd, but also make growth when tho
land has not been supplied with, plant
food In the form of -uiure or fertilizer.
Some farmers relieve (he pasture from
close and constant cropping by grow
ing some kind of green crop, such as
sweet corn, oats or cow pens, the cattle
being turned on the crops when tho
plains are young In order to take them
off tho pasture long enough to give the
grass a start. Hut little lalK.r Is re
quired, the land being stirred with a
disc cultivator and the seed broadcast
ed and the land them rolled. If there la
danger from trampling of the green
food It may !e cut and fed to cow. A
mixture of ont and peas, broadcasted
together, has long been used by soma
farmers, but any kind of green crop
Will answer, as tho object Is to take the
cow off the pasture and at the same
time provide a lubetltute for grass In
a manner not to diminish the yield of
mUk by the cow.
The Far a Laboratory.
On rvery farm the manure heap la a
Itcaptacl fat raw material that under-
goes chemical hangt s, and uu.t
changes occur therein tbau In any lal
oraiory under the control of chciiiisis.
The fund for plants is therein prepared,
and Is the samces that 'purchased lu
the form of artlliclal fertilizers. Even
lu the soil constant changes occur. We
no.v know that minute bacteria work
as agents in preparing food for plants,
and iu some cases are capable of utiliz
ing the free nitrogen of the atmosphere.
Every plant after its kind perforins a
certain duty, assist lug In its way to
benefit some plant that follows, and ev-
j cray process of growth, every effort put
forth by the farmer, and every beast
that exists on the fnrm, are all aids In
farm laboratory work, thousands of
combinations being created and hun
dreds of compounds resulting. To suc
ceed on the farm every farmer should
study these things In order that he may
more Intelligently assist In deriving the
most from his farm. There Is room
for hundreds of experiments, as agri
culture Is ye In Its Infancy compared
with what Is possible In the future, a
every year demonstrates that there 1
more to learn. Philadelphia Record.
' aving Lettuce Beed.
Probably most people who have
grown and saved lettuce seed for year
have noticed that after a time the let
tuce began to run up to head earlier
and earlier each year, until the period
of leaf production waa materially re
duced. This comes from collecting eed
from plant that all through their
growth have been kept stripped of their
leaves. The seedsman never or seldom
picks any leave from hi eeed lettuce.
He only does It when he finds that the
lettuce mllde-v has attacked It, which
Is the lettuct-seed growers moRt for
miiKtule dllllonlty. Usually when the
leaf mildew gets In lettuce, It goes
through the field within a day or two.
Very little seod grows on these headed
lettuce, much les than from beads
stripped of leave. This is why the
best lettuce seed must always be dear.
Competition.
The farmer who does not believe that
farming pays can always find other
farmers who make a profit The real
drawback to farming Is competition,
which the farmer must meet as well as
the tradesman. The competitor of the
farmer Is some other farmer who Is
more progressive than he. Time on the
farm cannot be wasted, hence a farmer
cannot afford to wait two or three
years watching his neighbor make ex
periments, but must himself go ahead
and get to the front as soon as possible.
There Is strong competition among
fanners. Some can produce at a lower
cost than others and can consequently
sell at lower prlw. To meet this com
petition each farmer must resort to the
best stock bo be had and keep his farm
up to the standard of fertility.
Feed in it Oata in the Straw.
Though It saves labor, H Is doubtful
whether there is any advuntage In
feeding oats In the straw to ordinary
stock. Unless the grain can be ground
much of It will pass through the stock
whole and will be voided In the excre
ment But there Is an exception to this
In the case of sheep, especially 1 fed
oats in the straw In winter. The sheep
masticate the grain so thoroughly that
after It has oome up and 1 rechewed
In the cud there Is scarcely any loss of
nutriment. It 1 best to feed the oats
In the straw before any hay Is given,
and require It to ail be eaten. TUIf
will prevent waste.
Late Fall PiB.
The only pig that will attain size
enough to safely pass the winter is one
that is born six or seven months before
cold weather is expected. We have
raised pigs In the fall, and that too
when we had the advantage of a base
ment barn to provide warm quarters
for them. Yet the growtli during the
winter, notwithstanding good feed,
was never satisfactory. There Is too
little sunlight during the winter
months, and if the pig is kept warm
without sunlight It Is usually at the ex
pense of poor ventilation. Without
good air no animal can maintain good
digestion or remain healthy.
Hutter Color.
The use of butter color, while not at
all necessary during summer, frequent
ly glvt good satisfaction In winter
mouth fud Is by no means harmful,
but often beneficial In the way of se
curing a better separation and texture,
as its presence has a tendency to firm
butter.

A PHILIPPINE VOLCNCX
Irlnn Kxploratinn of the Crater vt
lucl hf Mr. Kane, the Arctic Hero.
Prof. Charles W. Shields writes of
"The Arctic Monument Named for Ten
nyson by lr. Kane," and incidentally
gives a sketch of the latter in the Cen
tury. Prof. Shields says:
It was at Luzon, the largest of the
rhilipiue Islands, that his adventurous
spirit though under a scieutilie Im
pulse, pa.ssed the limits of prudence in
his far-famed exploration of the crater
of Tael, a volcano on the Pacific coast
of the Island, In a region Inhabited
only by savages. Crossing over to the
capital city of the Island during one of
the long delays of Chinese diplomacy,
he procured an escort of natives from
the Archbishop of Manila (by means of
letters from American prelates which
he had secured before leaving ho ir e),
and. In company with his friend Baron
I.oe, a relative of Metternich, pene
trated the country to the asphaltic lake
In which the Island volcano is situated.
Both gentlemen at first descended to
gether until they reached a precipice
overhanging the cavernous gulf of the
crater, when the baron saw further
progress to be Impossible. But the doc
tor, in spite of the remonstrances of the
whole party, insisted upon being low
ered over the ledge by means of a rope
made of bamboos, and held In the
hands of the natives, under the baron's
directions, until he reached the bottom,
2(J0 feet below. Loosing himself from
the cord, he forced his way downward
through the sulphurous vapors, over
the hot ashejs, to the green boiling lake,
dipped his specimen bottle Into Its wa
ters, returned to the rope, several times
stumbling, almost stifled, and with one
of lis boots charred to a coal, but suc
ceeded in again fastening himself, and
was hauled up by his assistants, and
received into their bands exhausted
and almost Insensible. Remedies
brought from the neighboring hermit
age were applied, and he was so far
restored that lliey could proceed on
their journey. But rumors spread be
fore them among the pygmy savages
on the island of the profane invasion
which had been made into the mysta
rles of the Tael, and an angry mob
gathered about them, which was only
dispersed by one or two pistol shots
and the timely arrival of the padres.
The trophies of this expedition were
some valuable mineral specimens, a
bottle of sulphur water, a series of
graphic views, from recollection, in his
sketch book, and a written description
of t he volcano by one of the friars,
which, after many wanderings, was put
In ills hands as he sat at the home din
ner table, twelve years afterward.
HOLIDAYS IN MANILA.
At One Time There Were Over Forty
in Kvery Year.
Manila loves holidays. At one time
there were over forty in ea;ch year. The
number has been sadly' diminished,
though there are still thirteen left, I
understand. Each pueblo has its saint
and on that saint's day the Inhabitants
give l.homselvee over, as they do on the
gr at holklay of the church, to music,
!i reworks, cock-fighting, processions,
("IC.
Almost all these processions took
place at night and the effect was most
plcturusque. There would be a line of
marchers, men, women and chilldren,
walking In single file on each side of
the street every one with a lighted
candle in his hand. At intervals, In the
middle of the road, would come images
of the Savior, the Virgin and the
saints, borne on ttie shoulders of from
ten to thirty men, surrounded by
priests, and preceded by a band of mu
sic. Some of the Images were covered
with diamonds and other precious
stones, said to b enormously valuable.
In these cases there was always a
guard of soldiers with fixed bayonets
shout the mage. Often there would
be thousands of people walking in
these processions; and all the wiiile It
was moving, tens of thousands of rock
ets and bom I xi would be fired. These
rockets and bomb are home-made. The
rockets consist only of a joint of bam
boo iilhul with iowder, exploding with
grant noise, but with little light The
bombs are simply a handful of powder
tightly wrapped with hemp. They cost
a mere trllle, but make n great noise,
and no fiesta is complete without plen
ty of them.
The most curious procession Is par
ticipated In only by native and thepoor
er mestizos. It takes pla-e, If I rcmiein
ber rightly, during Holy Week, and Is
a high eolnmnhy. Every one walking
In the procession Is robed In hl.s grave
clothes. The garment Is a long, loose
gray robe with a hood, and It comes to
the ground. The effect ! very strange,
and an the people go they reoHt contin
ually: "Santa Maria, Madre do Dlos,
ora pro nobis!" It may seem strange
that grave clothes are provided before
they are noi-ded; but In Manila they are
considered a prime necessity, and every
native owns those clothes, even If he Is
bare of all others. Tins ordinary dress
of the native man Is trousers and shirt
of "piece-goods" (calico), the shirt be
ing worn outside (he trousers. On holi
days they wear a shirt made of plni,
which Is an expensive material. Native
servant wear Ihe same articles, but
they must lie of spotless white, and
very suitable and nice-looking It is,
though I suppose that the Idea of being
driven by a coachman so dressed would
(hock the habitues of Central and Hyde
park. A curious freak of custom was
that native servants were required to
serve barefooted, wihlle It was an I..ult

vacuum, but light is. The number of
vibrations which occur with the shrill

Experiments have recently been tried
In England with a projectile for can

base which completely closes the bore
so that no gases can escape past the

but it enables good results to be attain

gun was recently tried there which
fired eight shots In fifty-six seconds.

Dr. Lydekker, in Konwledge, points
out the error of the widespread belief
that deserts, like the Sahara, are the
bottoms of ancient seas which have
been lifted above their original eleva
tion Dy geological forces, it is absolute
ly certain, be says, that the sands of all
the great deserts of the world have
been formed on the spot by the disinte
gration of the solid rocks on which they
rest. "Desert sands correspond In all
respects, so far as their mode of origin
is concerned, to the dust and sand
which accumulate on our highrowds in
summer." All deserts are situated
where the winds from the ocean, before
reaching them, are exhausted of their
moisture by passing over mountains or
across extensive tracts of laud.
Along our Pacific coast there is gen

twenty-seven submerged valleys, some
of which are In Hue with rivers enter
