FARM NOTES.
Breeding For Quality.—For over a cen-
tury progressive breeders and farmers have
experimented and diligently worked to im-
prove all classes of live stock. As the pres-
ent day there is more or less objection to
inbreeding, as being ruinous to the vigor
of stock, yet it is an admitted fact that ani-
mals produced by inbreeding transmit
their qualities more prominently than do
those that are the result of careful selec-
tion from different strains. Inbreeding, as
practiced on some farms, results in failure
because it is not done under the guidance
or direction of some careful farmer,but in a
careless and irregalar manner. Inbreeding
is a science, and demands the most careful
judgment,as it permits of no middle ground
whatever. Its tendency is either to improve
or deteriorate the stock. Without inbreed-
ing farmers would not to-day be favored
with many of our choicest and most popu-
lar breeds, as all of them have been estah-
lished by persistent inbreeding, in order to
fix the characteristics desired. That great
and successful English breeder, Lord Wes-
ton, in his efforts to make a superior breed
of hogs, resorted to but a single out-oross
upon the Essex, which prompted him to
use the Neapolitan as an admirable animal
with which to blend the proper propor-
tions of lean and fat, and even this out-
cross may not be considered as such, the
Neapolitan being one of the original breeds
upon which the experiments were begun.
It was only by a judicious selection of the
strongest and most vigorous of the herd
that success was attained. Had the herd
been left to breed in-and-in, without a
guide to assist in the selection of the best,
the Essex hog would have passed out of ex-
istence long ago, for even careful selections
could not prevent the breed from gradu-
ally becoming enfeebled and weak. The
Berkshire, itself a closely inbred hog, was
next used to infuse mew blood, and the
process of inbreeding was again persisted
in, until at the present day we bave a
perfectly black Essex hog, without a white
spot of any kind, which breeds true to col-
or and stamps its features and merits on
all its offspring.
HAVE AN OBJECT IN VIEW.
Careful selection and inbreeding have al-
so greatly improved the breeds of cattle.
The Jerseys are nearly all closely inbred.
But few pedigrees can be traced that do
not run into one or two progenitors of the
whole, and our best butter strains are near-
ly all descended from one or two families.
The rule of late years has been to select
for breeding purposes only cows that have
made records for butter production, they
being closely inbred for that purpose. The
surprise is that such animals retain their
constitutional vigor, but, happily for the
breeders, the test of butter production
seems to be also the test for vigor, as the
best cows are those that are vigorous and
capable of digesting and assimilating suffi-
cient material with which to accomplish
the purposes desired; yet, with all the care
that may be exercised in the matter of se-
lection, the animals that prove superior
are few as compared with the number that
are not so fortunate. The results of in-
breeding may be plainly noticed by even
the most casual observer in the delicate
shape and structure of Jersey cattle, but
the appearance and form are now consider-
ed badges of purity of breeding. The
beef-producing, butter-yielding and milk
giving breeds differ in form and character-
istics. While a few breeds may possess
more than one desirable quality, it is nob
considered advantageous to attempt to com-
bine all the good qualities in a eingle
breed. The risk is too great. The cow
that daily satisfies her owner in a single re-
spect only has as much as she can do. If
something else is required, procure, or
breed, a different kind of animal, as each
farmer oan, at the present day, breed for
what he prefers.
RAPID IMPROVEMENT.
The best families of horses, whether
thoroughbred runners or trotters, were pro-
duced from a few selected ancestors, in-
breeding being largely practiced. Breed-
ing close to the Messenger blood, through
Hambletonian, has certainly increased the
speed of our trotters, and admitting that
the instinct of trotting has been more firm-
ly impressed, yet there is a much larger
proportion of failure, compared with the
success attained, if the fact is considerd
that the number of the whole is many
times greater than that of half a century
ago. The form of the trotter, as well as
that of the thoroughbred, shows plainly
the work of inbreeding, for while the spir-
it and will force have been increased, it
has required an occasional infusionjof new
blood (not, however, altogether foreign) to
retain the stamina so essential tojthe road-
sters. The thoroughbred runuer of to-day
is largely indebted to Diomed, Sir Archy,
Glencoe and Lexineton for improvement in
endurance and speed.
The mutton breeds of sheep are now cap-
able of producing specimens exceeding 400
pounds live weight, with also an increase
in length of wool and weight of fleece,
while the best merinos can shear over 30
pounds.
Every decade bas witnessed the break-
ing of “‘records’’ among all classes of ani-
mals, which is the best evidence that im-
provement is rapid, much of the success be-
ing due to inbreeding, a system that is un-
safe unless practiced by one who fully un-
derstands the selection of the choicest
individuals, their adaptation to circam-
stances and the objects sought to be ac-
complished.
Tarnips and carrots make excellent win-
ter food. For cattle they should be sliced
with a root slicer, which does the work
very rapidly. Even poultry can consume
such foods when the materials are sliced.
The way to prepare sliced roots is to
sprinkle cornmeal and bran over the mess,
and give it to the cattle or fowls at least
once a day. The advantages are that such
foods are sucounlens, easily digested, and
they afford a change from the usual dry
rations. Ensilage should also be given, if
there is a supply on hand, but the root
crops will be found excellent, no matter
what the other foods may be.
Breeds for producing beef have been im-
proved so as to enable the farmer to secure
twice as much weight in a steer compared
with 40 years ago. The average weight of
an entire berd of cattle would not then ex-
ceed 800 pounds, but an average of from
1200 to 1600 pounds is not regarded as re-
markable at the present day.
To secure gocd seed oats fill a large
wash tub two-thirds full of water, and
pour in hall a bushel of oats at a time.
Skim off all the oats that do not sink to
the bottom. Draw off the water, dry the
seed, and the chances will be that every
seed will sprout.
FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN,
A Late Winter Style.—Full skirts trim-
med with flounces are very becoming to
slender, girlish figures and will be more
worn during the coming season than gored
models. An excellent mode is shown,
developed in marine blue ‘‘granite’’ cloth.
Fullness in the upper portion of the
skirt is arranged in deep, backward turn-
ing tucks that form a simulated box pleat
in the front. The closing is made invisibly
at the centre back. The tucks are stitched
down to a round yoke depth, fullness be-
low the tucks falling in flounce effect.
The deep flcunce has a heading at the
top. It is joined to the lower edge of the
skirt, the heading concealing the seam. A
deep hem at the lower edge is machine
stitched. The skirt should he worn over
a petticoat plentifully trimmed with
flounces that will add considerably to the
flare at the hem.
Skirts in this style are made of eash-
mere, Henrietta, poplin, voile or veiling
and trimmed with bands of silk, ribbon or
velvet at the hem. The mode may also be
successfully developed in lawn, organdie,
batiste or Swiss, with lace or embroidered
bands for trimming, In wash fabrics it
will be more satisfactory if gathered around
she belt in place of being tucked.
To make the skirt for a miss of 14 years
will require three and three-quarter yards
of material 40 inches wide.
What is Worn.—To hold ont the ex-
tremely bouffant skirt there is a cerclette
of thin wire, which prevents it from flop-
ping about in an aimless and ungraceful
fashion. This forerunner of the crinoline
will not be found objectionable in its pres-
ent mild form.
When made up as a trimming for even-
ing frocks, the tiniest button rose built of
chiffon is placed in the middle of a lace
wheel.
Sealskin is much used for stoles, and
those opening over a pointed vest of ermine
and worn with a large granny muff border-
ed with this royal fur are the newest ideas.
Yokes of white or cream cloth perforated
like broderie anglaise are employed upon
cloth gowns.
White chiffon taffeta silk makes a charm-
ing bodice. Guipure lace forms the yoke,
collar and small vest. Outlizing the yoke
is a narrow piping of black velvet, over
which is laid a guimpe of dull gold. Orna-
ments of gold close the bodice and band
the pleated sleeves.
The influence of the Audubon and sim-
ilar societies is being widely felt, as evi-
denced in many of the millinery depart-
ments of the larger shops in England and
America. The beautiful effects that can
be gained by the artistic dying and skilled
make-up of ‘farm yard’’ feathers has large-
ly done away with any necessity for the
wholesale *‘slanghter of the innocents’’ of
the animal kingdom.
A popular trimming for evening dresses
is found in the dainty artificial flowers that
are manufactured from chiffon. Chiffon
roses, in either cluster or wreath form, are
a very effective finish to skirt or bodice.
They are more soft and delicate for the lat-
ter than the stiff imitation flowers that we
generally describe as *‘artificial.”” Chiffon
flowers are especially suited for fringing a
low-cut bodice.
Large muffs, of related colors and ma-
terials, are being made for wear with pic-
ture hats. A lately observed model was of
amethyst velvet, trimmed with violets
gathered in clusters under the brim, while
shaded ostrich plumes decorated the top.
The muff that accompanied it was of the
same velvet, trimmed also with violets.
The two were exceedingly picturesque and
smart in effect.
To Prevent Freezing.—During the win-
ter season, when hanging out clothes is so
difficult, try puttinga handful of salt in
the last rinsing water, and the clothes will
not freeze or stiffen until after they are
hung on the line; indeed, it is possible even
to change the position of a lineful of clothes
if necessary, before they freeze, and best of
all, if hung out in the sun they will have
commenced to dry before the freezing be-
gins; this saves the wear and tear, for
nothing is so hard upon linen as this freez-
ing and flapping in the wind; they are also
easier to remove from the line; have a pair
of white gloves for hanging out clothes, the
white wool sort that are worn so much
now, and these, with the salt water rins-
ing, will rob hanging out clothes in winter
of its terrors, says Mary Taylor-Ross, in
the Housekeeper.
Always hang the table linen in good
shape, for it is almost impossible to iron
out wrinkles which dry in it. Hang both
tablecloths and sheets across the line even-
ly, with the weight on the waip threads,
ends down, for the warp is stronger than
the woof, and if hang habitually length
wise the goods will split across the folds.
Iron down the middle, folding them exact-
ly opposite from the way they hung on the
line, and they will wear longer.
If clothes have become discolored through
improper washing, try for a few wash days
the plan of scalding them just before put-
ting them into the last rinse water; this
will whiten them beautifully, although it
is more trouble.
Never take the clothes from the line
damp and fold down to iron; let them get
quite dry, and then bring them in, folding
them properly when they are taken from
the line, as this will save much ironing out
of wrinkles.
Remember in a Sickroom.—That medi-
cine bottles should be kept ont of sight.
That garrulous friends should be treated
in the same wise fashion.
That a rubber ice bag is as useful as a
hot water bag.
That everything about the room should
be scrupulously clean.
That it is sometimes safer to humor sick
people than to argue with them.
That rapid recovery from illness often
depends more upon nourishing food than
upon medicine.
That sweet smelling flowers should never
be permitted in a sick room where there is
a very sick person.
That both light and ventilation can be
regulated hy placing a tall screen between
the bed and window.
Coffee a Cleaning Agent.—Black goods,
silk, wool or cotton, will look like new if
sponged with strong black coffee that has
been strained and to which a few spoon-
fuls of ammonia have been added.
Buttermilk is excellent for cleaning
sponges. Steep the spouge in milk for
some hours, then squeeze it out and wash
it in cold water. Lemon jnice is also good.
Cold and Colds.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
A simple precaution will prevent both
colds and the sensation of being cold. Wild
animals do not take cold. Men constantly
expose themselves to changes in the tem-
perature and humidity that no other ani-
mal could stand.
A man’s body is a furnace. Clothing
does not warm him, but only keeps off the
cold. The warmth comes from the burning
of the oxygen of the air in the lungs. Ex-
ercise warms the man because his lungs
burn up more oxygen. The oxygen in
combination . with the assimilated food
burns freely. It is as really fuel as coal or
wood.
The process that goes on in the lungs is
similar to that in a stove—the more draught
the hotter fire. Give your lungs more
draught and you will feel warmer immedi-
ately.
Ten long, deep breatbs, on coming out
of the house in the morning, will make
the outdoor temperature seem 20 degrees
warmer. Long, deep breaths every time
you go from a warm room into the open
air will send the blood tingling to the sur-
face of the skin, and the colder the air the
more exhilarating the sensation. Try it.
Nature has put; in every man’s chest a
furnace that beats steam heat.
Fresh Grapes All Winter.
French Devices Preserves Them for the Palate of
the Epicure.
A clever French process by which vine
growers in France are able to market fresh
outdoor grapes all through the winter is
thus described. Bunches of the finest grapes
when ripe in autumn are cut in such a
way that to eat a bunch a piece of the
vine five or six inches long remains attach-
ed. From this piece the stems of the
bunch hang, an arrangement vitally neces-
sary to the success of the operation.
A large number of wide-mounth bottles,
filled with water, is ranged in a cellar and
in the open end of each is inserted the
pieces of vine stem, the bunches of grapes
hanging outside. The grapes do not touch
the water, but are thus supplied with
moisture through the vine stem, which is
immersed in water. By this process choice
varieties of table grapes are kept in perfect
condition for the whole winter.
The temperature of the cellar is uniform
and moderately low and care is taken daily
to supply the bottles with the water lost
by evaporation. Fruit thus carefully tend-
ed is somewhat costly, but there are many
patrons who willingly pay $2 a bunch for
the delicacy of fresh grapes in midwinter.
The Sun’s Nearest Neighbor.
The rarely-seen planet mercury reached
its greatest western elongation from the
sun on January 22nd and since then has
been favorably placed for observation asa
morning star, rising an hour and a-half be-
fore the sun in the southeast. It is an
achievement to catch a sight of this elusive
baby planet, and it is on record that Coper-
nicus never succeeded in seeing it. Those
who are not early risers must wait until the
end of March, by which time mercury,
moving at the rapid rate of nearly 1800
miles a minute, will have passed to the
other side of the sun, and he even better
sitnated as an evening star in the north-
west. The planet shines with a dull rosy
hue,and to watch its quick passage through
the stars is most interesting.
Young’s Pler Again Sold.
The ocean pier sold some months ago at
Atlantic City, to the Young’s Pier Corpora-
sion for $1,000,000 has been resold to the
Sterling Realty Corporation. The consid-
eration is said to have been $1,680,000. The
transaction also includes Young’s hotel,
facing the Boardwalk at Tennessee avenue,
and several properties on the latter street.
Captain Young verified the report Sunday
night, as did several other parties to the
transaction, but all details are withheld,
however, until the final papers are signed.
-—Another unfortunate man has died
of hiccough whose life could have heen
saved by the prompt use of tincture of
amyl. Why do not the medical practition-
ers make a public announcement of the
first treatment for the afflicted. Neglect
of what is generally thought to bea trif-
ling ailment often causes . the nervous dis-
temper to pass the curable stage. Hiccough
is not to be trifled with. The instant it
appears go to the nearest pharmacy, get a
few drops of amyl tincture upon a hand-
kerchief and breathe it energetically into
the mouth and nostrils. If it doesn’t re-
lieve take a cab for the most experienced
physician in your locality. Don’t wait
until next day !
Women Crowding Prisoners’ Pen.
A startling increase in the number of
women arrested within the jurisdiction of
the Jefferson Market Court, which includes
the Tenderloin precinct, is shown in the
figures for 1904.
The total number of persons arraigned
in the Court during the year was 26,723.
Of the $22,119 paid in fines $18,203 was
imposed for disorderly conduct and 90 per
cent. of the persons charged with this of-
fense were women arrested in the Ten-
dexloin precinct.

disappointment. He was therefore nei-
ther oversympathetic in intercourse
with his friends nor fair in his esti-
mates of other writers.
Though he personally liked Tenny-
son, he spoke with impatience of his
“cobbling his odes,” dismissed Jane
Austen’s novels as “dish washings,”
Hallam, the historian, as “dry as dust”
and Goldsmith as an “Irish black-
guard.”
Even the writers of editorials in the
press were saluted with this hard say-
ing: “What are these fellows doing?
They only serve to cancel one anoth-
er.” A characteristic anecdote illus-
trates his cruel disposition, which pro-
voked him to inflict pain even on a
friend.
An artist who frequented Carlyle's
house painted a picture of him in his
dressing gown smoking a pipe by the
fireside and Mrs. Carlyle in an arm-
chair siiting opposite him. The pic-
ture was hung at one of the Royal
academy's exhibitions and, though not
a striking work of art, was purchased
by Lord Ashburton, Carlyle’s friend,
for £500. ’ -
The delighted artist hurried off to
the Carlyles, expecting congratulations
on the sale and some manifestation of
pleasure on their part at having such
a value set on a picture of thémselves
and their domestic interior. He deliv-
ered his glad tidings, but all the re-
sponse he received from Carlyle was:
“Well, in my opinion. £500 was just
£495 too much.”
