FARM NOTES. —When you go into the horse pasture, take something in your pocket for young and old, for they seem tosay ‘‘thank you,’’ and ‘‘we love you.’” You will have no trouble to catch them at any time. —All seeds of grain should be treated for smut if signs of smut have been noticed in previous years. Both oats and corn require treatment. Dissolve one pound of sulphate of copper (blue stone) in six gallons of hot water. . Soak the seed 24 hours in the solu- tion, and then mix with land plaster, so as todry the seed. By using this precaution much annoyance from smut may be avoid- ed daring the year. —Look carefully on the cherry trees for any signs of black knot. It will be an ad- vantage to cut away the branch or limb and burn it if any indications of the dis- ease is found. It comes from spores, and once it gets in an orchard seems to hold its own. Trees that were treated last fall should be sprayed early, following with spraying several times thereafter, using the Bordeaux mixture. —The peach trees may be pruned early and with some trees it is very beneficial to cut them out liberally. No old wood should be left on a peach tree if the branch is dying on which such old wood can be removed to allow news buds to grow. Some growers cut off one-third of each tree every year, claiming that by so doing only one-third is left bearing one-third produc- ing wood for next year and one-third pro- ducing new buds for future growth. Peach trees must be cultivated and the ground kept clear of grass and weeds. Diligent search must be made from April to Oct. for bores. —The small garden is the one that gives its owner pleasure. Probably the majority of those who cultivate small gardens make no profit, but actually suffer a loss, when the crops are compared with the cost of seeds, fertilizers and labor, but there is considerable pleasure derived, the value of which cannot be estimated. No matter how small the plot owned or rented may be, the one who can bestow a portion of time to the cultivation of garden crops this spring should do so. There are some things grown in a garden that cannot easily be procured in market, when the freshness and qualities are considered. No one can buy tomatoes in market equal to those taken from the vines and placed on the table. If a plot is very fertile, and is no larger than half an acre, the amount of produce that can be grown thereon will supply an ordinary family from early spring until late in the fall. Beginning with onions and green peas, with beets, carrots, parsnips and early cabbage, fol- lowed with string beans, lima beans, to- matoes, sweet corn, turnips and late cab- bage, two crops can be grown on the same location during the season. Potatoes need not be planted in a garden, asthe crop demands protection from the beetle. This spring, if desired, a small strawberry patch may be started which will come into bear- ing the following spring. —Among the new enterprises that have lately come into our commercial life one of large and growing importance is the mak- ing of fine robes and garments from cattle hides, says W. E. Brown, of Michigan. And now that the buffalo has passed from the plains and most of the richly furred animals from the forest the farrier must turn to cattle hides as one of the most de- sirable of his materials. To develop this trade we have only to remove the few ob- stacles which now retard it. One serious trouble that we have had in the past in turning cattle hides into robes was that the cost of manufacturing was so great and the quality so poor on aczount of improper tanning as to limit the de- mand for the goods until the tanners turn- ed to Chinese dog, wambat, goat, etc., and produced an inferior article, almost at & price that ought to buy a good robe. But with recent improvements in tanning the Galloway hide can now compete suocess- fully with all others as material for robes. The robe industry has grown up so re- cently that we have not yet learned to sell direct to the factory, but we sell our valu- able fur hides along with the common stock for leathér, and the middleman makes a leather profit before they reach the furrier or manufacturer, thus reducing the profit of the producer. Our association should keep furriers and manufacturers fully post- ed in regard to the names and locations of all breeders that they may be enabled to buy direct of the breeder and save this profit of the middleman. Another trouble that tanuers complain of is difficulty in getting hides of the pure bred Galloway. They complain that an intermixture of the blood injares the beau- tiful black and shaggy appearance of the hair, and, while they are willing to pay a premium over other cattle hides, ranging from 20 to 30 per cent for pure bred Gallo- ways, they cannot even secure all of those that they need. So this industry may be greatly aided by breeding strictly the pure breds. Another complaint made by tan- ners and which can easily be remedied by breeders is that barbed wire fences make scars on the hides that greatly mar them, and stanchions rub off the long, curly hair on the neck of the animal, which of course lessens the value of the hide. An objection that has often been urged to a fur coat from a Galloway hide is that it tans stiff. The fact is that the improv- ed processes make the hides soft as cloth. Another trouble to owners of fur goods is their liability to partial or total destruc- tion from moths, hut one factory has now developed a process of tanning from which they guarantee their goods against moths. Another means of developing this in- dustry would be to advertise more exten- sively and promulgate generally the facts that the robe from Galloway cattle out- wears all other robes; that a robe from an imported skin, Chinese dog, goatand wam- bat is a very poor one compared with the product of our own hides; that a beautiful black robe for coat or other use can be tan- ned soft and pliable from our Galloway hides and that it can he made into a coat so that the fur will not wear off the edges, and the garment will preserve its perfect appearance for many years, and so tanned that moths will not touch it. Iam told by manufacturers that our robes and coats are equally as goad as the bear or otter, which are worth $75, while we are selling ours for $15 and upward. From time away back, from the days when the Indian hunted along theseshores, the warm robe from the beast has heen the comfort of mankind, and in this fast age, when man discards the horse from his tele- graph, he still needs the fur robe. He will not discard that, and he demands the best in that line, and the best quality and price can now be found only in the Galloway herd. FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. Those who are inclined to be stout look puffed out and those who are thin appear haggard when they wear bright pink,green or blue at a day entertainment. Nature teaches ns a lesson in color which it would be well for us to heed. In early youth, the light, soft tints of spring; in early womanhood, the glowing hues of summer; in autumn, rich, dark tones; in winter, the pure white and gray shades that are in per- fect harmony with old age. A mistress‘ who is always finding fault with her servants for this, that or the oth- er thing, or, as they themselves express it, “always driving and nagging at them,”’ will never keep a really good servant, even if she is fortunate enough to engage one. If a maid neglects her work, forgets an or- der, or makes a mistake it is, of course, necessary to notice the neglect, to point out the mistakes she has made. There is no necessity, however, to do this angrily, hastily or sharply, for there may be ex- tenuating circumstances the servant has to plead, and which, when heard, will dis- arm our wrath; and to lose one’s temper and speak sharply unnecessarily does not add to one’s dignity, nor does it raise the respect a servant ought to feel for her mis- tress. For it is not easy to really respect a person who has no control over either the temper or tongue. Like one’s grown-up children, servants cannot bear to be found fault with before other people, whether these others are members of the family, strangers, or their own fellow domestics, and if we think of the matter fairly we can understand this dislike, and see that it is quite natural. Collars and cuffs would seem to be com- ing in again. They must be perfectly straight, made in fine muskin edged with lace and finely embroidered. They are selling in the shops set over a stiff lining of color, and are very covetable. Those who are wearing fine cloth gowns with lace jabots in front find these a very suitable addition, for they set well, however high the collar. The early fall showed very quickly that the pouch from the front of the bodice had gone out. By Christmas the under-arm seams were being fitted very taut and snug. Ina few days the pleats and gathers in the girdle at the back began to disappear and the new cloth waists were curved into fit at the belt without a suspicion of fulness. This past week I have seen three cloth bodices. Absolutely skin tight, with not even a shoulder cap to help out the breadth. This is a significant fact in clothes; and it would be wise to wait awhile before de- signing a handsome spring gown and see whether this extreme style will become geueral for the Easter gowns. It is perfectly true that there are not over a half dozen such bodices in the city, maybe; but these few are handsome frocks made by smart dressmakers, and they may be the beginning of the end of all fulness. Paris has been wearing these tight gowns for some time, but over here we have adorned the snug foundation with double collars and fichus and sleeve draperies and much skirt trimming. ‘‘Whether the American will accept the snug foundation stripped of its draperies I simply do not know. But I will tell you this, that I am making a gown for a young matron who is very much a la mode to take South with her and the gown is this: A blue nun’s veiling, not a pastel shade, but something a little deeper than turquoise and yet not so hard as cadet blue, for few women should ‘ever wear such a fearful color as the latter. “The skirt is laid in half-inch box pleats from the waist to within twelve inches of the hem. There the tucks flare and the flare forms a ruffle around the fees. ‘‘The bodice is tucked in the same way from a point in front up to within two inches of the collar. It fits without a wrinkle. “The pleats are stitched down on both sides, are two inches apart and heavily pressed. Where the bodice ends at the throat is a tiny yoke of coarse yellow lace, unlined. It reaches up into a high collar that wraps around the back and ties in a large bow at the side, high up by the ear. At the finish of the cloth at the yoke is laid an inch band of yellow lace. ‘‘The sleeves are tucked vertically and are put into the armholes without fullness. The tucks are continued to the wrist, where they flare out into a ruffle over the hand. ‘‘The ruffie is edged with two bands of the same lace used around the yoke. The girdle is of the cloth, half-an-inch wide and stitched through with four rows of stitching. It is cut toa point at either end, crossed over in front and confined with a little imitation turquoise brooch. “Can you imagine anything plainer than thisgown ! Yet on the woman in question it is the essence of grace !"’ The public towel—the towel that the public wipes on—is never safe to use. It not only removes the moisture that it is its purpose to do, but it rubs off scales, pieces of dead skin, lymph from cuts and abrasions, perspiration from the pores, mucus from the nostrils, pus from sores and ulcers and any liquid that is excreted upon the surface of the body. Many persons use these towels in a day and those who are among the last, especially, run un- pleasant chances of catching some ill or other. The shirtmakers have made it as easy as possible to find a becoming shirt, as among the mass of samples we have seen hardly a plaid is shown, and stripes are so much more becoming to all figures. The very newest patterns are plain colors—a beauti- ful blue, pink and violet, with a figured dot about as large as a pea, and plain colors in pink, violet, blue and an unusually pretty shade of tan, striped with four hair lines of black, outlined on either side with two hair lines of white, alternating with a solid stripe of plain color, about an inch wide. We think the plain colors, striped with raised hair lines in white, and also striped with a darker shade in the same color and white, are more becoming than broken stripes or plaids. Plain white shirts are most useful and serviceable, as they launder perfectly and look well until worn out. Among the samples shown are stripes in various widths and combinations, small raised polka dots. little leaves embroidered, and various dimity patterns. A sensible outfit of shirts would be : Six white ones, which should be worn with white pique, duck, light tan or light gray skirts; with dark skirts a col- ored shirt looks better. We need not 1e- mind the economical girl that a well-fitting white shirt, a white pique skirt, a clean white belt, with the addition of a lace cra- vat and a smart hat, will enable her to go anywhere in the afternoon and be sure of looking well and being well dressed; and, of course, this does not mean for any formal function. To continue with the shirts : In regard to colored shirts, girls should be careful to choose becoming colors, and not materials combining more thar two colors. The most becoming are the clear, plain colors, striped. With colored shirts one should be careful to wear very plain stocks and collars, not elaborate satin af- fairs, as colored shirts are strictly morning or traveling dress. If a girl makes her own shirts she can afford six colored ones also. Low Rates to Washington and Balti- more. Special Ten-day Excursions § Via Pennsylvania Rall- road.
