Is the man who will smile !

through the coffee mill or meat chopper,

walnuts or buiternuts. |

—A horse's
sanee is not only ivjor-
ed by a ‘‘bap belly,” but its lung capacity
is reduced.

—Feeding in sheep basbandry is like
any other problem in live stock; however
good care they must degenerate.
—Lambs will not worry so much when
separated from the ewes if retained in the
field where they are accustomed to run.
—Dairymen prefer to milk before they
clean the cow and horse stables. Iu this
way they miss the dust and odors which
arise when cleaning and feeding is done.
—Yellow-meated poultry is most appre:
ciated in all markets. Stock shonld be
plump, straightbreasted, well and cleanly
picked and nearly packed to command the
top market prioe.
— Bitter cream comes [rom keeping cream
too long from cows that bave been milked
since early last spring. [It is best to chum
every few days, even though there is only
a small churning on band.
—There is no standard for judging the
Guinea fowl. They should, however, be
of uniform shape, great activity and reason-
ably good producers of eggs. Their entire
egg crop is produced in summer.
—Do not forget the poultry as winter
weather is approaching. See that their
houses are free from cracks, and that the
roofs are in good condition. Heos must
be comfortable and well fed to produce
eggs during cold weather.
— When cold nights begin the farmer
should begin to stable bis stock. A pound
of flesh saved by this method in the fall
will save three or four times its value in
feed during the winter, besides adding
greatly to the comfort of the animals.
—At present prices of corn and of feed- |
ers the man who bas the feeders and bas |
not the corn to finish them is pondering
serionsly over the prospects. High prices
for dressed beef steers will alone justily
long feeding under present conditions.
—1It is claimed shat Massachusetts leads |
in the cranberry outpns, with an average |
orop of about 400,000 bushels aunually.
New Jersey is a close secoud, with about
350,000 bushels,and Wisconsin ranks third
with an average of about 100,000 bushels.
—The potato storeroom must be dak,
cool, well ventilated and dry. There
should bea double floor beneath where
large quantities are piled together. There
shonid also be oppertuiiice for ventilation
of the walls, and at intervals through the
pile. i
Braid, especially very narrow braid, is
as moch in vogue as ever. Buttons and |
tassels share in its popularity.

Motning bats are trimm d with scalloped
and frayed rnches of soft silk. Dressier
millinery exbibits velvet, feathers and fur.
Drawn or gathered silk net and velvet hats
are worn iu the evening.
Ou coats the shawl collar is preferred to
the commoner and more masculine tailor-
made revers. Some coats are collarless
and show a depassans, or inner, collar in;
a lighter shade of cloth. These details are
given a great deal of thought aud minute
work in current fashions.
The shoulder seam in all dresses is dis-
guised by draperies or embroideries. The
shoulder line is always drooping, and in
spite of the amount of materials with which
bodices, are trimmed they never in the
least degree ‘‘bugle.”’
Various shades of blue—old biue, royal
blue, peacock, pastel and Nattier—are the
mode, and replacing the very popnlar vio-
let of last season. Many winter hats are
trimmed with flowers. Fauoy birds and
feathers provide the barbarous air which
seems always to be admired by the major-
ity, though shunned by the more artistic
few.
The somewhat loose out of the latest
tailor-made coats 1s most favorable to

lcelandic Longevity.
It would be interesting to kuow if any
part of the world beats Iceland in she av-
erage length of life of ite inhabitants. It
is shown in the census of 1905 that on av
| average the people of tbat island live to
the age of 61.8 years, which is very nearly
doable the mean duration of buman life as
it was computed a generation ago. Swe-
den avd Norway are iegarded as very
healthful countries, but Iceland takes the
Im in longevity, the mean duration of
ite in Sweden being 50.02 years and in
Norway 49 94 years.
Some of Iceland’s earthquakes are nerve
racking, but on the whole the lives of most
of its simple and industrious inhabitants
slip along with few incidents that unduly
stimulate or depress the pulee. Summer
and winter the same old mail hoas from
Leith steams into the harbor of Reykjavik
every three weeks, hut very rarely brings
pews that touches Iceland so closely as to
make excitement. In fact the little island
enjoys many of the advantages of civiliza-
tion and avoids most of ite drawbacks.
But the summer tourist is reaching loe-
land in larger numbers every year, and
the island is now tied to Europe by a sub-
marine cable. The nexs census will doubt-
less show the effect of these startling in-
| novations upon longevity in Iceland.

—The meat market in America consists
of two classes, broilers and roasters. Broil-
ers, small broilers and large broilers.
Squab broilers when dressed weigh from
three-quarters of a pound to one od

from one to one and a quarter ponuds each,
and large broilers trom one and a half to
two pounds each.
—For old orchards the “trimming up’
method is perhaps, the best. Cut off the
bottom limbs to a point three or four feet
from the ground, then cut off the ends of
the most extending branches. Do not

—H. M. Coterell, alter years of experi-
enve and observation, says that Sovepen
hay is nearly equal to alfalfa in feeding
value, and contains nearly one-half more
flesh and milk-makiug material than clover

is needed in forming bone, blood, flesb and |
milk. These qualities make it especially
valuable for og growing cattle and

which it grows, the same as alfalfa, clover

—It is a very good idea to dig up the
