Neckruff of Ostrich
The neckruff of ostrich is an as
sured favorite for the fall and winter
season It is worn to best advantage
when the hat is trimmed to match.
With a world of ostrich fancy feath
ers, plumes and bands of all descrip
tions, it is not difficult to select a
trimming suited to almost any kind of
hat.
These ostrich neckruffs are made
of long-fibred stock, generally, and set
close up about the neck. A hat to
match, with a drooping brim, or a
shape which sets down on the head,
merges at some points into the ruff
and it is this that makes the effect
so good when the hat trimming is like
the ruff.
Some very handsome hats are
trimmed with long 1 oas of ostrich.
One end falls from the hat at the left
back and is thrown around the neck.
A tiny bow, or a little nose gay or
jeweled' pin fastens the end to the
shoulder.
Nearly all ruffs are fastened with
loops and ends of velvet ribbon. Some
times these are long and heavy but
this is not usual. Short smart bows
are just as good. Narrow velvet rib
bons in rosettes and many falling
ends, or narrow satin ribbon of good
quality make equally effective finish
ings, all depending on the taste of the
wearer.

FRAGILITY OUT OF FASHION
Girls of Today Seek Health and Take
the Right Way to Secure
the Blessing.
It is no longer fashionable with the
fair sex to feign delicacy, nor are the
girls of the coming generation actuat
ed by an insane desire to appear fra
gile and genteel at the expense of
health. The scores of buxom, bright
eyed young ladies one will meet in
any of our public thoroughfares any
afternoon is ample evidence of the
truth of the assertion, says Woman's
Life. No longer do the fair ones seem
wan and pale to look upon, nor is their
style of locomotion suggestive of ef
fort; but, on the contrary, nearly all
seem strong and lithe of limb, and
with cheeks suffused with the ruddy
glow of health. Doctors generally
agree that there is far less sickness
among the sex than had formerly been
the case, and this could be attributed
solely to the glorious practice young
ladies have of late acquired of testing
their capabilities as pedestrians, and
In engaging in other forms of light
physical exercise. It is to be hoped
that the good work will go on.
EVENING WAIST
✓-N
This dainty waist is of chiffon or
mousseline de soie. The upper part
of the waist and the yoke are tucked
and finished with little shirred head
ings.
The lower part is plain and finished
with a black velvet girdle into which
is tucked a knot of roses. The
sleeves are tucked and finished with
double frills of the material.
Crepe Paper Gifts.
For those who cannot afford to ex
pend very much money on materials,
there is nothing more satisfactory
for fancy work than the making of
objects of braided crepe paper. This
^ I material costs but a few' cents, unless
ribbons and silk or satin are used in
combination with the paper. The
work is of the utmost simplicity, al
though the finished product appears
to be an imposing piece of work. One
does not realize just how easy it is
to fashion these crepe paper things
until one has started out to do the
work, and has the materials in the
hands.—Harper’s Bazar.
Muffs Are Larger.
The mufTs are larger than ever,
says Harper’s Bazar. Quite soft and
rather flat. Some have the paws
and tails as trimming, as they had
last year, while quite as many have
no hanging trimmings. Most of the
fur collars are worn with one end
thrown over the left shoulder. For
those who can wear that style there
are standing neck bands of fur with
ruches of tulle above and below, the
whole fastening at the left side with
a big satin ribbon bow.
UMBRELLA CASE OF VALUE
Idea Is to Match the Costume, and
the Vogue Is Rapidly Becoming
Fashionable.
Because of the tremendous vogue
of velvets and the number of cos
tumes in that material that are being
made up, the velvet-encased umbrella
has come into being. Made on a
slender but substantial frame, which
folds closely, and covered with a silk
taffeta spread, the umbrella when
closed and encased appears like a
walking stick of velvet from ferrule
to top. A solid silver monogram
plate caps the handle, which, ten
inches down its length, is ornamented
with a double ring of silver.
Decided colors are now the smart
thing in silk umbrellas. AH the fash
ionable shades of purple, blue, mauve
and the new reds are in demand for
spreads, which are mounted upon
frames that press tightly about a
slender stick and give the convenience
the appearance of a silken cane. This
fashionable fad is to procure a unique
handle for the umbrella that is car
ried with the tailored walking suit,
and while some of the effects are ar
tistic, others are actually bizarre.
Among the latter are the cat, parrot
and monkey heads in natural colors
with jewels for eyes. In the former
class are all manner of beautifully
carved handles of rare woods and
ivory, and wrhen money is not an ob
ject, of jade, amber, rock crystal or
solid silver and gold.
Psychology and Clothes.
I have a little friend who disliked
to wash dishes; so for her birthday I
made her two aprons from two yards
of pink gingham. I cut them in one
piece, with straps which cross in the
back and button in the shoulders. The
edges are trimmed with pink finished
braid. I made a pocket in each
apron, with her initial embroidered
in white. She was so pleased that her
mother has no trouble getting her to
help with the dishes and dusting.—

Fur for Everything.
Fur goes everywhere. It trims the
chiffon evening frock and appears suit
ably enough on the tailor made, while
it is also in evidence in connection
with silks and soft satins. Skunk is
the fur which is just now lifted to the
highest pinnacle of favor, and one
sees it on all sides. With the fash
ionable mole gray suit it could hardly
be excelled, its deep, dark brown tint
having an admirable effect against
the gray.
Smart Gown.
Original and smart is a gown with
a little orange-scarlet cloth coat, the
cloth left with cut edges, and the sole
relief being a handsome black anc
silver embroidery on the upstanding
collar, worn with a black satin stock
The skirt is of cleverly draped supple
black silk of the faille order. It is
finished with a group, set in a triangle
to hold in place one portion of the
drapery, of flat black and silver inter
plaited braid buttons.
New Dinner Gowns.
Soft damask satins, chosen in very
dainty and delicate colors, will b6
used for some of the loveliest of the
new dinner gowns, quite simply drap
ed, and arranged with long, flowing
trains bordered around the hem with
dark fur. In the case of the draped
bodices which are to be worn with
these skirts touches of fur are intro
duced to outline the sleeves.
Fur Fad.
The latest fur fad is to allow the
ends of the scarf to drop down the
center of the back; boas and stoles
are crossed in front, and the ends
fall with a studied carelessness.
Kid as a Trimming.
Kid appears as a trimming, but it
is not so popular as suede. A pretty
frock of dark blue serge has cdlar
and cuffs made of dark red suede.
NORA’SJjLUE EYES
One of Many Romances of the
Great Receiving Room at
Ellis Island.
By HAROLD CARTER.
Dr. Sergius O'Flanahan, stationed at
his post in the great receiving room
at Ellis island, examining immigrants
for trachoma, let his hands fall upon
his apron and gasped. He found him
self staring into a sweet face upturned
twinkled with fun and then suddenly
to his and into two blue eyes that
clouded with sorrow.
“Nora Mulcahy!” he muttered.
“Glory be! I guess there’s nothing
the matter with your eyes, Nora. How
did you get here?”
“Whist! You're holding up the line,
Sergius," said Nora. “I’ll see you aft
erward at the place they’re sending
me to, unless they won’t let me go
there.”
Then she was gone and Sergius
O’Flanahan was resuming his daily
prosaic task of examining eyes. He
looked into several hundred pairs that
morning, but none of these affected
him in the least like the blue eyes
of Nora Mulcahy, his former sweet
heart.
“Mulcahy?” asked the official to
whom he applied. He turned to his
register. “That little Irish girl?
They’re holding her in the detention
room until her man conies. He was to
have met her. They won’t let her in
if he doesn't come.”
So Sergius found her in the deten
tion room, her eyes piteously red, her
face white, her lips trembling. At the
sight of him a faint smile came to her
lips, and presently she was twinkling
"Nora, Is It Too Late?” He asked
Softly.
with laughter again. Nora was never
sad for more than a few minutes to
gether.
“Sure, Nora, this is a bad busjness,”
said the young doctor, sitting' down
beside her. "I hear you're to be
married.”
“That I am,” answered Nora, look
ing sidewise at him.
“It’s a bad businesr-.” said O'Flana
han again. “Who is it, Nora darlin’?”
“You mustn’t call me that, Sergius,
nor squeeze my hand,” said Nora
primly. “I wouldn’t have thought it
of you, Doctor O’Flanahan.”
“I'm not squeezing it, Nora; I’m
Just holding it,” said Sergius, and, as
she made no protes1. he continued
holding it. “Who is the lucky man?”
he continued. “Is it Piggy Mac
Shane?”
“Now do you think that I’d be after
marrying MacShane?" cried Nora in
dignantly. “No, indeed it isn’t.”
"Then it’s Terry MacBride; bad
luck to him,” cried Sergius. “I knew
he’d get you, Nora, if you didn’t take
sare. Is it MacBride?”
“No, it isn't MacBride,” said Nora
faintly. “And please—please don’t
ask me. You'd be so jealous."
“Then I know who it is for sure,"
said the young doctor. “It’s Ellis
O'Flaherty. Ellis, who always boasted
that he’d get you and went to Chicago
four years ago and made his pile
fattening pigs.”
“And what if he does fatten pigs.
Sergius O’Flanahan?’’ exclaimed Nora
indignantly. "He’s worth his ten
thousand dollars today, is Ellis, if he’s
worth a penny. Mind you.” she added,
“I’m not saying that it is Ellis,
though.”
"I know it’s Ellis,” answered Ser
gius O'Flanahan gloomily. “I knew
he’d get you. He always beat me out
of everything. Do you remember
when he won the pig at the fair by
staying on the mule when I got
pitched into the mud? He was al
ways great on pigs. Ellis was. Ah.
Nora, if only you hadn’t turned me
down when I asked you, before I left
the Old Sod to walk a lonely wander
er over the earth. Twice 1 asked you
and each time you said no.”
“Twice!” exclaimed Nora. “Why,
Ellis asked me seven times before he
sailed and wrote me five times after
ward. Why didn’t you try me again,
Sergius?” she continued softly.
The young doctor edged closer to
ward her. "You’d—you’d have taken
me, Nora?” he whispered.
Then he saw that the tears stood in
hef eyes again. He clasped her In
his arms, and she did not resist but
lay there.
“Nora, is it too late?” he asked
softly. "We were a couple of young
fools to quarrel over nothing at all,
asthore. And all the years I've been
in America I’ve been seeing your
sw'eet face before me night and day,
darlin’. And when I wrote you from
Newark, when I had my last Job
there, I was sure you’d come out to
ma, but you didn't even answer me.
Wouldn’t you rather take a fine, ris
ing young doctor with a government
job than old Ellis O’Flaherty, with his
ten thousand dollars and his pig
sticking?”
Nora was smiling up at him as she
lay in his arms.
“Yes, Sergius, darling, I’d like to,”
she whispered. “But now—now that
they’ve sent a telegram to the man
I’ve come out to marry I’m afraid it’B
too late. He may be here any mo
ment. And how would I look, walking
off with the doctor? If only I’d known
you were here. How long have you
been at Ellis island, Sergius?”
“A month last Saturday,” the doc
tor answered. “Why?”
"O, nothing,” sighed Nora.
“Nora, asthore," whispered Ser
gius, “it isn’t too late. I think I can
square tho folks here. They can’t
hold you so long as you’ve got some
means of support. And I can support
you, Nora, yes, even if I lose my
place in consequence. And I guess a
woman’s always privileged to change
her mind.”
“And what about Ellis, Sergius?”
inquired Nora demurely.
“It is Elli3, then?”
“I'm not saying it's Ellis,” Nora
protested.
Sergius O'Flanahan snapped his
Angers. “Nora,” he said, “you always
were a tease. If I'd had a grain of
sense in the old days I’d have cap
tured you and carried you to the priest
and made you marry me before you
knew what I was doing to you. But
it isn’t too late yet. And as for El
lis, a man who lets a chance like you
slip through his fingers isn't worth
the having. Now I've got you and I'm
going to keep you. Come along and
see the commissioner.”
He led her out of the detention
room, along the corridor, and up the
stairs to the room in which the of
fices of the commissioner are situated.
He paused at the door.
“I'd like to see you a minute, sir,”
he called.
“Come in, O’Flanahan,” the commis
sioner answered. “Let the lady come
in. By the way, here’s a telegram just
come for you. I held it here, know
ing you’d be up for the board meet-’
ing. You'd better open it."
The doctor tore open the envelope
and pulled out the missive inside. He
read:
“Yes, Sergius. Nora."
It had been re-sent from Newark.
And the place of dispatch was Ellis
island.
Nora was looking over his shoulder.
Now, as he began to understand, she
snatched the telegram out of his
hands.
“Don’t you understand, you stupid?”
she whispered. “It was you. I sent
it to you at Newark when I landed
here. It's you, you, you, you, and not
Ellis O’Flaherty at all.”
A sound behind them made them
start. The commissioner, with his
back turned, was coughing exceeding
ly loudly.
“I beg your pardon, doctor,” he said,
turning round. “What was it that you
wanted to see me about?”

JUDGE WILLING TO PLEASE
Protesting Prisoner Escaped With
Light Sentence After He Had Put
Up an Argument.
Judges were very considerate in
the old days. Lord Brampton, in his
■•Reminiscences,” relates a story il
lustrating this;
Baron Martin, a famous English jur
ist of the old school, whose native le
niency and sense of fun often placed
him at the mercy of the very men he
was trying, was once about to sen
tence an old offender charged with a
petty theft.
“Look,” said the baron, with an as
sumption of severity; “I hardly know
what to do, but you can take six
months.”
“I can’t take that, my lord; it's
too much," said the prisoner, respect
fully but firmly. “I can't take it.
Your lordship sees 1 didn’t steal very
much, after all.”
The baron indulged in one of his
low, chuckling ' laughs before reply
lDg:
‘‘Well, thars very true; ye didn’t
steal much,” he said. “Well, then,
ye can take four months. Will that
do—four months?”
“Nay, my lord, but I can’t take that,
either,” was the reply.
“Then tak' three.”
"That's nearer the mark, my lord,"
the prisoner said, approvingly. “But
I’d rather you made it two, if you will
be so kind."
“Verra well, then, tak’ two.” said
the judge, with the air of one who is
pleased to have done the right thing
at last. “And mind, don't come again.
If you do I'll give yer—well, it all de
pends:”
Humanity to Mules.
"In the fifteen years that I have been
connected with societies for the pre
vention of cruelty to animals in this
and other cities I never have received
a complaint alleging cruelty to a
mule,” said the humane-looking man.
"That immunity of mules from harsh
treatment is an interesting question.
Why are they immune? There are
plenty of mules, even in New York.
Does anybody beat them? Does any
body underfeed them? If not, why
not? Does a mule show such a de
cided ability to take care of himself
that his owner is afraid to abuse him?
Or do men beat mules and starve them
and escape punishment because the
persons who witness the beating and
starving think it i3 only a mule and
not worth bothering about? What is
the explanation of that phase of the
mule question, anyhow?”—New York
Times.
Forty and a Bittock.
The novelist, Barrie, has given a
new phrase, a Scottish phrase which
may be adopted into the English lan
guage. It is to take the place of the
awkwardly polite terms of “a woman
of uncertain age,” or “on the wrong
side of forty,” or “of years of discre
tion.” His phrase is “forty and a bit
tock.” A “bittock” Is Scotch for a bit
more or a short distance. It may
mean five years or twenty years. In
the case of Madame Yale, Lillian Rus
sell or that woman of imperishable
youth, Sarah Bernhardt, It might
mean even more years beyond forty.
Gentle Hint.

BREEDING AND GROWING OF CATTLE FOR
MARKET IS MOST PROFITABLE TO FARMER
Corn Silage Has Been Important Factor in Process of Making
Calves Into Beef—Rough Feed and Coarse Fodders All
Are Converted Into Marketable Meat and Farm Manure.
Prize Winning English Shorthorn.
While the shrewd buyer and care
ful feeder of beef cattle may secure
a profit from feeding cattle good, bad
or indifferent that he may be able to
pick up about the country, it is not
likely that he will succeed in even
turning off a load of market topping
beeves from such stock. Cattle that
can be bought up about the country
are usually of the lower grades and
seldom return a profit to their pro
ducers, though, as stated before, the
man who buys them and finishes them
for the market may secure a profit
from them, says a writer in the Wis
consin Agriculturist. The man who
desires to turn off market topping
cattle or those coming close to the
top prices must breed and grow such
cattle himself.
Frank B. Beath of Corning, Iowa, is
one of the men in the beef business
who breeds and grows his cattle and
turns them off in the open market at
high figures. Every year for the past
five years he has fed out a bunch of
Hereford calves of his own raising.
In a recent interview with Rex Beres
ford, beef specialist of the Iowa Beef
Producers' association, Mr. Beath
said: “We used to feed older cattle
and depended on buying them any
place we could pick them up. Five
years ago we got disgusted with the
quality of the stuff we were able to
buy. Occasionally we got a good load,
but the stuff we could pick up here
and there was mostly tag end, scrubby
stuff that did poorly for us and never
looked good even when It made us
money. We made up our minds we
would have good feeders, even if we
had to raise them.”
According to the Iowa beef special
ist, the Beath farm consists of 266
acres. One hundred and twenty acres
of this Is bottom land, partly wooded
Devon Bull.
and traversed by a creek—land of
little use save for pasture, but most
excellent for that purpose. On eighty
acres of this blue grass the breeding
herd is maintained during the pasture
season. The rest of the year they
spend cleaning up the stalk fields,
straw, corn fodder and other rough
feed of the farm, together with some
corn silage. They get little or no
grain, but convert the coarse feeds of
the farm into beef and valuable ma
nure.
During the last five years the calf
crop from the breeding herd has av
eraged nearly 90 per cent. The calves
are dropped from April to June on
pasture. They are fed on grain dur
ing the summer, but run with their
dams on the blue grass, where they
grow mossy coated, thick and “baby
fat.” They are weaned in October,
after first being taught what grain is.
After meaning they have a pasture
that has been allowed to grow since
their predecessors were sold in June,
all to themselves. Here they get corn
and cob meal, enough to keep the calf
fat in place and add to it a little each
day. At this stage Mr. Eeath has
added each year to his bunch of "home
growns” what calves of quality he
could pick up in the neighborhood.
All are fed well and kept coming until
cold weather commences and pasture
is gone.
For the first two years corn and cob
meal, clover hay, corn fodder, and cot
ton seed meal were depended upon
to continue the process of making the
calves into beef. Money was made
on that basis, but for the last three
years corn silage has been an impor
tant factor in producing this result
About December 1 the silo Is opened
and from then on until grass comes
again the calves get about all the si
lage they will eat. Indeed they eat
some even after grass comes. The
daily silage ration is from twelve to
fifteen and sometimes as high as
eighteen pounds. With the silage they
eat from five to six pounds a day of
corn and cob meal, until along in
March when the corn is gradually in
creased to as high as eleven pounds
a day. Some cotton seed meal is also
fed toward the close of the feeding
period, beginning at half a pound of
the meal per head and gradually in
creasing to a pound and a half a day.
Usually at marketing time, which
comes in June, there are two loads of
calves to ship. They weigh around
800 pounds at from eleven to thirteen
months of age. During the past five
years they have gone below the $50
mark but once (1911). They have
averaged better than $50 a head for
the five year3. Every year they have
made a profit.
Many of the breeding cows are
still young, growing as well as pro
ducing. The older cows are fatted
and turned off as their usefulness de
clines or they fail to produce a calf.
It Is a safe estimate that the average
yearly cash income for each cow in
the herd is better than $50.
While there Is nothing startling in
this method of beef production, there
apparently is sure profit in it. The
cows are cheaply kept, the pasture
land is well employed and the ele
ment of speculation involved in buy
ing high priced feeders is avoided.
The rough feed and coarse fodders are
all utilized and converted into market
able beef and valuable farm manure.
Little corn and no roughage is bought.
All the crops are raised on the farm
and fed there so that little fertility
13 lost from the farm and the cost of
marketing of the farm products is
reduced to the minimum. Little hired
labor Is necessary. Hogs follow the
cattle and consume the waste of the
cattle feeding and make extra profit
and the farm is growing more pro
ductive. When the methods and re
sults of some of the most successful
beef producers are studied it looks as
if there is money after all in produc
ing beef on high priced land and those
of our Wisconsin farmers who do not
want to go into dairying, who have
farms adapted to beef production,
need not let the high priced land ar
gument disturb them in the least
about getting into beef raising at
once.
EXCELLENT FEED
FOR ALL POULTRY
Packing Firms Manufacture and
Sell Large Quantities of Pre
pared Scraps.
(By M. BERNARD.)
The moat successful poultrymen
feed some kind of animal food to
their chickens of all ages and condi
tions. In the wild state birds secure
both vegetable and animal foods. Bugs
and worms supply the animal food,
and seeds and other vegetable growth
the vegetable food. The animal por
tion of the food is always a necessity
for normal maturity and good egg
laying.
So essential is animal matter in the
poultry feeds that the packing firms
manufacture and sell large quantities
of prepared beef scraps and ground
bone, which are sold very widely over
the country^ Those who use them
find that It pays very well. It has
been found both experimentally and
by practical tests that sweet milk,
sour milk, buttermilk—in fact, milk in
any form—contains all the elements
found in other forms of animal mat
ter.
Milk contains all that beef scraps
and green cut bone does, but in a
more diluted form, and it is highly di
gestible, and no digestive troubles
arise from either old or young chick
ens consuming large quantities of It.
Everyone who keeps cows and
poultry on the same farm will find it
profitable to preserve all the milk for
feeding the flock and dispose only of
butter fat. It is the best animal
food that can be given to them. Give
all the chickens all the milk they will
drink. It will do them no harm.
Another Big Record.
One of the interesting exhibits of
the dairy department of the Missouri
College of Agriculture at the state
fair was the daughter of “Josephine,”
with a greater record than that of her
mother at the same age.
Feeding for Egge. i
In feeding chickens for eggs the
hens Bhould be given green food at
midday, such as chopped alfalfa, clo
ver. rape, sprouted oats or kale. A
third of the food of fowls should be
of this character. An hour before sun
Bet the birds should have a feed of
wheat, cracked corn or other good
grain. Bran should be available in
self-feeders at all times; its value is
already due to Its phosphorus con
tent The morning ration should con
sist of ground grains to which a third
in bulk of chopped green food should
be added; this mixed with a little bran
makes a ration of high feeding value.
Single-test each pullet before using for
breeding purposes. If they prove to
be good layers they are worth a lot
of money; if they are poor layers they
should go to the kitchen.
Calendar of Crimes.
Weedlcide is on the calendar of
crimes, but to judge by the looks of
some farms this is not as widely
known as it should be.
