Ifwas before the day of ready-made clothing , and want- Ing a new suit , he was obliged to take the material to the village tailoress. She took his measurements , and when she cut the coat , made a liberal al lowance on each seam. The man's dislike of women in gen. eral prevented his having a fitting. He took the finished garment without trying it on. It was much too large , and his disgust was apparent in the answer he made to the friendly loafer on his first visit to the post office , when he wore the despised article. "Got a new coat , Obed ? " said the loafer. "No , I hain't ! " said Obed. "I've got seven yards of cloth wrapped round me.-Youth's Companion. A Knowing Girl.

I fWoMfljfl \ ROOI\ M FARM By f/il @ . . .t Coal ashes are of no value to your garden. Grow plenty of hay , and some wheat and oats. Chicks in a large run will exercise more and hence keep warmer and healthier. Do not feed the young chicks any thing for at least thirty-six hours after hatching. . Diversified farming and crop rota- tion are the best antidotes for farm mortgages. Foul drinking water and filthy drinking vessels are a prolific source of trouble. The boar should always have a large lot to himself , and never be con fined in dark , damp quarters. Rape is sometimes sown on corn ground just preceding the last cultiva- tion , and' with timely rains the rape will furnish a great deal of pasture after the corn is harvested. The farmer who has all the land he can well tend to has no need of more land. He would be much happier with a reasonable amount of land , only enough so that it can be well im proved , fertilized and cultivated. Some make a practise in setting out ' an apple orchard to plant peach trees between the rows of apple trees , al lowing the short-lived peach tree to die before the apple tree matures. Plymouth Rocks , Wyandottes or Rhode Island Reds will grow into hens at maturity that will weigh from six to eight pounds when fattened for market , bringing more than a dollar each. Horses comprise nearly 45 per cent of the total live stock value of the country , their figures being $2,276,363- 000 , as compared with $5,138,486,000 for horses , milch cows , cattle , swine , sheep and mules. In the selecting and buying of cat- tle select the most healthy looking animals , and then determine positive- ly with the tuberculin test as to whether or not they are free from tuberculosis. If you have a patch of rye use it as a soiling crop for cows. You can begin to cut and feed it when it is about a foot high. Cut only enough at a time for two days' feeding , and store it in the shade , where it will keep green. The first thing Is to have everything connected with the milk and milking as clean as it is possible to make them. The other essential is to cool the milk as soon as possible after it is drawn from the cows and hold it to a low temperature till it is to be used. Many farmers milk cows of ques- tionable cleanliness in vessels known to be impure and place the milk after milking In a warm room , often near the kitchen stove. Such milk is not only unwholesome for food at any time , but it will soon sour and be- come unfit for human food. Give the hen a good dusting with insect powder two or three times dur- ing incubation , and a good one as she comes off with the chicks. Lice are a great enemy of young chicks , hence care must be taken with the sitting hen and . . her nest to see that no lice breed during incubation. Do not leave the cows out in the lot , as warm weather comes on , , but keep them at nights in their accustomed stalls with plenty of soft dry bedding It is more convenient to milk a cow In her usual stall than in an open lot , where she may wander about at will or be disturbed by the other cows. The pen of breeding fowls should be furnished with clean nests and the eggs gathered with clean hands. No grease or oil of any kind must touch them. Eggs should be gathered fre quently and stored in a mild and not too .dry place to prevent them from chilling and losing moisture. They should be turned daily while held and set as soon as possible. Fresh . eggs are most fertile. The ground for the future bean crop is usually , if possible , fall or winter plowed , or at least plowed ; very early in the spring. Soils producing good corn crops grow fine beans. An ideal bean soil is a sandy clay loam en- riched by barn fertilizers , or clover sodVs , and as it loves a loose , deep soil , although shallow rooted , a manured clover sod put to corn the season be- fore and well tilled proves an ideal place for the growth of tho r.oon. . , , A clean cornfield honors and profit its owner. - . Turning under CO' ' 'J ' eas adds numus to the soil. An acre of good land will grow many tons of stock beets. Warm weather 'is coming and you will need a good , cool place for milk and cream. Many farmers make the mistake of planting their apple trees too close to gether. - c * An easy way to secure new grape vines is to propagate them by layer- ing. Keep dusting the setting hen with insect powder , 'before and after she hatches her chicks. - I The careful man will turn and ex amine the udders of all his ewes in. tended for breedifg. Never allow the fowls to drink from a stream into-which the poultry yards and barn yards drain. The man who desires large profits from his flock should provide it with the best that good management will produce. If you have no silo and cannot build one this year then plant an acre or more of beets or other roots for win ter green feed for the dairy cows. Select a dairy breed of cattle whose product and offspring will bring the highest possible price in any market . and you will surely be successful in dairying. But sometimes the large gray louse gets into the head and under the wings of the chicks , then it is best to rub these parts with grease of some kind. . Lard and carbolic acid is good. Developing of new sections in sev- eral of the states of the middle west for dairy purposes in itself will call for more extra dairy cows that all the country can possibly furnish. A mixed grain ration of corn and oats , when fed with clover hay , is more efficient than a single grain ra tion of corn for producing large gains in an 84-day feeding period. Look well to a supply of autumn bloomers by planting a bed or asters. . The aster has an almost endless va- riety of colorings and blooms when most other flowers are past their sea son of beauty. Clover hay , when fed with a mixed grain ration of corn and oats , is more efficient for producing gains than tim- othy hay. In this test clover hay produced 58 per cent more gains than timothy. While box stalls are safer than sin- gle stalls for stabling horses , they are also more expensive and do not offer merits not possessed by single stalls so far as they may influence the horse in taking on flesh. It is not reasonable to expect strong and healthy chicks from immature , weak and unhealthy parents. Stand- ard , healthy and vigorous breeding stock is the foundation ( of successful hatches. When being fattened wether lambs should have some succulent food in their ration , for the reason that they will remain healthier and not be troubled with the common disorder called stretches and will usually , make a better gain. You cannot afford to keep poor cows and the best way to gets good ones is to raise them yourself. Breed the full-blooded dairy cows you have to a - male. If you cannot secure the serv- ices of one go in with some of your neighbors and buy . one in partnership. With favorable soil and climatic conditions good crops of rape may be obtained from broadcast seeding , but whenever there is any danger of the surface soil becoming very dry dur- ing the time the seed is germinating or when land is at all foul , drilling will give much better results. Grapes propagated from layering come true to name. Hence when you start new grape plants in this way choose canes from your best varieties. Well-rooted young grape plants will begin to bear the third year after set- ting in a permanent row and with good cultivation and general good care , including proper annual pruning , they will bear good fruit every year , increasing in productiveness with age. In resetting plants it is of perma- nent importance to place the roots in the soil in as natural a position as possible , a little deeper than , they grew in the original bed , making the soil hold them fast , fan shaped and firm. Holes too deep or holes too shallow are both objectionable , the one being too apt not to be closed at .the bottom , the other forcing the roots into a matted condition. The way to reclaim a gully or an unnecessary ditch in a field Is to fill it with trash and keep it filled. The trash will hold it from washing any wider or deeper and 'will gradually catch all soil and sediment that washes into it. By and by it will be- come filled with trash and soil and when the trash decays this soil will become the best Jn the field-deep , porous and full of the best available plant foods. , , A CLOVER LUNCHEON UNIQUE MOTIF FOR DECORATION FOR , SMALL FUNCTIONQ. - / Red and White Blossoms to Be Work ed Into Appropriate Designs for Table and to Be Used in Trimming Rooms. One of the prettiest of luncheons foi afternoon or evening can be worked out with clover as a motif. All the decorations can be of clover , red and whiteBowls of the fragrant blos soms should stand on mantel and tables , while in the center of . the lunch table spread with trefoil design may be a block of green turf from which springs a bunch of fresh and growing pink white clover. Let the large red clover leaves radiate from this to each cover , where there should be little boutonnieres of leaves and blossoms. The refreshments can be Arcadian In their simplicity. If you wish to serve a course luncheon have berries au nature for the first course , then sorrel i.S5 i. P with croutons and sorraie ! leaves r "cress as relishes.

Cook slowly two cups of hominy grits and one teaspoon of salt in three pints of water for three hours. Oil a mold , and line it with a thick layer of the hot cereal , packing it down firmly. In the center put the following mix- ture : Moisten one cup of fine whole wheat bread crumbs with two cups of hot milk , then add one-half cup each of hopped hickory and pecan-nut meats , two tablespoons of melted butter , one teaspoon each of onion juice , mixed herbs and salt , one-fourth teaspoon of pepper , and two beaten eggs. Cover the top smoothly with a layer of the hominy , and place the mold in a basin Df hot water ; bake in a moderate oven for 30 minutes. Turn out and serve with nut sauce.-Harper's Bazar. Hints on Baking. If you find the cake is rising in a cone in the center you may be sure the oven is too hot. Never mix a cake until the oven is ready to receive it ; It is likely to fall and be heavy. On adding citron to a cake shave it in thin slices , flour it and lay it be- tween layers of the batter. When ba king a cake try to have nothing else in the oven , then set the tin as near the center of the bottom shelf as pos- sible. Never leave a cake standing in the tin in which it is baked-it will make It heavy. . , Dropped Doughnuts.
