Quaint Table Manners.
Jerome S. McWade , the Duluth mil-
' , lionaire talked at a dinner about the
'delights of a backwoods vacation.
, "I go to a ! quaint : backwoods village
every summer , " he said , "and number-
less are the quaint people I meet
t there.
"Old Boucher for .instance , the jan
it itor of the village church , is most
' amusing with his quaint ways. I had
old Boucher to lunch one day , and
the cold lobster was served with a
.
, . . .Y . mayonnaise sauce. When my servant
a

The shorter the fattening period the
greater the profit from the pen.
If there are any bare places on the
lawn now they should be reseeded or
resodded.

The disk is a better implement than
the plow for breaking up sod in the
orchard.
There is a distinct difference be-
tween weeds and corn. There should
also be an extinct difference.
-
An orchard will live longer , bear
better and be more profitable for be-
ing well cultivated and enriched.
Perhaps the first important factor
to consider in dairying is the stable
wherein the cattle are to be housed.
Strawberries should be cultivated ,
the weeds eradicated and the mois
ture conserved for late summer
drouth.
-
When the Incubator is to be started
for late hatches set things in order
and run it two days before intrusting
the eggs to it.
The scientific , thoughtful farmer
works with his head. He knows every
cow , her yield , her condition and her
profit producing capacity.
Allow the calf to run with the
mother for a day or so immediately
after birth. The new milk is neces-
sary to promote'a proper digestion.
Aside from the commercial value cf
the products from the poultry yard
the value of fresh eggs and fine poul-
try for the table should not be under-
estimated.
No sane and active poultry keeper
will tolerate lice in the nest. Place
water , feed and dust bath where the
hen can easily get at them when she
daily leaves the nest.
Unless you secure the guinea eggs
and have the young ones hatched un-
der the hens , along with the chicks ,
they are almost certain to become
wild and unmanageable.
Beware of "red rust" in blackberry
or blackcap bushes. When seen ,
promptly dig up and burn infected
plant , being careful not to scatter the '
fungous dust over healthy bushes.
Those who have large apple or-
chards are fortunate if they have
evaporators for drying windfall ap
ples. ' This is a good way to utilize
unsalable fruit and thus add to the
profits of the orchard.

Keep your eyes open for better hens.
You will often see some advertised
for sale. But steer clear of old worn-
out stock. None over one . or at , the
outside two years old should be
bought or kept on the farm.

It Is quite a temptation sometimes
to have a dealer offer you a big price

you cannot afford to take any price '

The sitting hen should be given a

No animals are bred that are capa-

rich milk and storing away the largest
amount of flesh and fatness in their
bodies at one and the same time.
Most people find that the yearling
hens lay more eggs than the older
hens , but some chicken raisers claim
that the old hens eggs are better for
hatching , because they are more
strongly fertilized.

Water or moisture is always on the
move. When it rains It soaks the
ground and as soon as it stops raining
it starts its upward movement by capil
lary attraction. It travels from one
soil particle to the next and so on until
the soil becomes what we call dry.
It must be apparent to every . un-
prejudiced thinking man that ff the
dairy farmer wishes to obtain the
greatest profit in his dairy he must
grade up his herd by one of the pure-
bred bulls of one of the four great
dairy breds , Ayrshire , Guernsey , Hoi-
stein or Jersey.
All stock will be healthier and will

ing a better conditioner.

TOO MUCH ECONOMY
.
GOOD HABIT CAN BE CARRIED TO
EXTREMES.
Housewife Will Do Well to Guard !
Against Penurlousness , In Which *
There Can Be No Pos-
sible Saving.
% '
The housewife who Is so conscien
tiously and rigidly economical that
she is always bounded and surround-
ed by reversible silk skirts that should
be thrown in the rag bag , or frazzled
centerpieces that could be cut up into
doilies , or lawn scraps that might be
turned thandkerchiefs , should take
a whole day off and learn that "every
excess is a defect" and "extremes
weaken. "
Sometimes such painful and tedious
ecomonies are necessary. Often they
are not. Once in a while they are
ridiculous. At times it happens that
they ] even cause misery. Perhaps" you
remember with what pangs of wound-
ed pride you went to school in the
metamorphosed dress of your elder
sister. Perhaps you read about the
girl who came back from boardjng
school and straightway rejected her
young country lover because his eco-
nomical mother had put tucks in his
trousers to provide against his rapid
growth. Anyhow , there are two kinds
of economies and the kind that will
monopolize your time from sunrise to
moonrise and keep you ; humping for-
ward threading needles or flashing
crochet hooks , and maybe make some-
body sour at that especially when
that willing old second-hand man of-
fers to relieve you of all the non-
essential dry goods , woodware and
ironware ] for cash , it is for you to
watch out that the goblins of regret
and disgust don't get you.
Foolish Habit to Acquire.
Unless it is a case of "have to" the
tendency always to create something
new out of something old is not so
commendable in modern housekeep-
ing as some might think and for the
following reasons :
In the first place most of us elalm
that modern dry goods has not the
durability it was known to have 50
years ago. Therefore it doesn't al- '
ways > pay to make over something old
since . . much of the wear is gone. Then
there is always some doubt as to the
fit . . or presentability of a made-over
thing , and the market for all kinds of
discards including furniture as well
as clothes being always open it is
generally easy to dispose of things
that are in the way.
. Besides , the housewife who wishes
to be classed as "up to date" must
grant herself sufficient leisure to neu-
tralize the domestic strain with social
or intellectual felicities , so a few of
those laborious economies must be
cut out.
Here are some samples of erring
economies that increase the burden
of daily housework : A mother with
,
four children and an excellent income
unraveled a knitted sweater that was
a : little tattered on one shoulder and
,
sagged on one side and crocheted two
_
pairs of house slippers of the ravel-
ings.
ings.This
This used up all of her afternoon
leisure for two weeks. By darning
carefully : : and stretching this sweater
a little , , which would have taken her
only a few minutes , she could easily
have disposed of it. . .
For , Simple Living.
Fancy cake is not possible without
butter and eggs in abundance , but It
is not to
necessary the health of a
family or the table of a good house-
keeper. There are substitutes , like
fruit ' - plain or cooked-gingerbread i
and cookies. It Is not fashionable to
eat too much or too often , so those
whose ; pride suffers in the lopping-off
process may solve It with that knowl-
edge. But women of fashion do go
to : market and select food , keeping in
touch : with the
novelties as they
ap-
pear and taking
advantage of an over
stock : whenever It is to be found. They
eat ! as a matter of course , while plain-
er ! : folk make feeding a prominent fea-
ture of life. Quality , rather than
Quantity , counts with them , for they
have learned that food governs health
In a great measure. They have also
been taught that
greediness of
appe-
'
tite is distinctly vulgar.

The Carving Knife.
There is a great deal in knowing
how to sharpen the carving knife. The
teel should be held in the left hand
which should be on a level with the el-
bow , pointing1 toward the right shoul-
der , and the knife held , almost
: , perpen
dicularly in the right hand. J
The hilt of the knife's edge should
be placed at the top of the steel and
he blade drawn downward the whole
length of both steel and
knife , first on
one side and then on the other , so
that the point of the knife finishes at
he hilt of the steel.
The blade should be almost flat on
the steel , with the back slightly raised
but with only the edge touching it

victim is reported , and Archie Camp-
bell manager of / the Last Chance

, deavor to establish the identity of the
unfortunate.
"Mr. Campbell encountered the un-

ful condition. He was in the last
stages of desert exhaustion , devoid
of clothing sunburned , blistered and
crazed with his tongue swollen enor
mously , a pitiable object and unable

"He was tenderly conveyed to camp I
and everything possible done for him , !
but kind aid came too late , for an
hour after he had absorbed the first
cup of water he expired. "

Woman's Power } .
- . OverManri
Woman's most glorious endowment is the power
to awaken and hold the pure and honest love of a
worthy man. When she loses it and still loves on ,
ao one in the wide world can know the heart agony '
she endures. The woman who suffers from weak .
mess and derangement of her special womanly or-
ganism soon loses the power to sway the heart of
a man. Her general health suffers and she loses
her good looks , her attractiveness , her amiability
and her power and prestige as a woman. Dr. R.V. Pierce , of Buffalo , N.Y. , with
the assistance of his staff of able physicians , has prescribed for and cured many
thousands of women. He has devised a successful remedy for woman's ail-
ments. It is known.as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is a positive < < .
specific for the weaknesses and disorders peculiar to women. It purifies , regu-
. lates , sfrengthens and heals. Medicine dealers sell .
it. No honest dealer will
. .
advise you to accept a substitute in order to make a little larger profit. ' - :
