FARM NOTES.
—David K. Wall, the man who dug the
first irrigation ditch, aud planted the first
garden in Colorado, died recently in Den-
ver at the age of 83 years. He made a for-
tune ous of the ground.
—The Pennsylvania Experiment Station
bas discovered shat rye weal as a part of
a properly balanced ration for dairy cows
is as efficients in milk and buster produc
tico as an equal weighs of cornmeal.
—Don’s forget the horse's feet. The
work on the plowed ground bas a tendency
to soften the fees, and a drive on the bard
road may rain a foot thas might have been
saved by carefal trimming aad attention
belore the drive was made.
—The Japanese ivy will cling to the
smoothest surface. unlike its cousin, the
Virginia oreeper, which weeds a rough sor-
face to cling to. Many an old farm build-
ing wonld be made beautiful were a vive
or two of it planted to its walls.
—A member of she Country Life Com-
mission says the worst agrionltaral condi.
tions of this country are in the South, be-
canse the farmers bave robbed the soil of
ite humas by growing cotton and tobacco
exclusively for more than a hundred years.
—8quash and cucamber bugs will nos
operate on hills wes with saltpetre water.
A ul of saltpesre dissolved in
two gallons of water will make a sufficiens-
ly strong dose. Pus ahous a pint of this
solation around each hill, olose to she
stems
~The United States Department of Ag-
rionltare recommends the establishment
of movable schools of agricultare hy the
State experiments stations. Where 15
farmers can be secured as students the
school may be ocooduoted for a year or
longer.
—There is no color cf horse so insensible
to heat as the sorrel. There is seldom any
coat so silky or responds so quickly to
good care as she sorrel, aud many horse-
men olaim there in seldom any horse with
such sound fees and limbs or possessing the
endurance of the sorrel.
—A stockman says he bas saved several
valuable Jersey calves that were down
with the scours by takinga teacupful of
wheat flour and giving a tablespoonful
every minate. He this two or
three timies a day before feeding, and di-
minished the feed one-balf autil the calf
got well.
—The Department of Agricultare is seri-
ously considering the introduction into this
country of Bokbara sheep, from which
comes the far called ‘‘Persian lamb.”” All
astrakban far is now raised on territory
tributary to the Caspian Sea. The best far
is taken from the lamb when it is only foar
or five days old. Tbe Bokbara sheep also
makes good mutton.
—The Maryland Experiment Station
shows by repeated tests that fresh manure
spread in winter did vot give as much in-
crease as the same amount rotted and
plowed down in the spring. Taroing the
manure while rotting was better than leav-
ing it without being turned. Commercial
fertilizers plowed under in the spring in-
variably gave larger yielde than when
sowed on the surface ust before vlanting.
—The oensus report cannot give the real
value of sheep. taide of the value of
sheep as prodncers of meat and wool, there
is a benefit conferred by them to land.
Pastures ocoupied by sheep become richer
every year, and bushes, weeds and briars,
which so readily grow where they are not
desired, are kept down by sheep and their
places oconpied by grass. The poorest kind
of land, if given up tosheep, even if itis
necessary to allow feed to them, will be
made productive in a few years.

not to be pastared on land more
year before it is plowed and reseeded, ow-

—The cowpea is a large bean-like plant
that aces a large amounts of forage. It
is valuable as a green food for plowing un-
der for green manare. It bas been used
successfully for improving worn out soils,
especially those that are light and sandy in

these are left near the surface, where they
will be available to shallow-rooted orops
and those which cannot ges nitrogen from
the air. It has been little used for hay in
the North, because it cannot be readil
dried in this climate. It makesa po
eens feed for miloh cows between August
and September 15, or is may be preserv-
ed in the silo by mixing with corn fodder.
For green maouriog, the seed should be
sown broadcast in late June or early Jaly,
at the rate of one and a hail bushels per
acre. It is especially valuable for growi
in young orchards. When wanted for fod-
der it should be sown in early June, i»
drills two and a half feet apart, at the rate
of one bushel seed per acre.

DAILY THOUGHT.
“Moderation fs the best temperance ; tempers
ance is the best diet, and diet is the best doctor.
Pique, the bess of all sturdy cotton fab-
rics for youngsters, is much to the fore in
our favorite shops. The cordy texture it is
that attraots specially, and fact thas is
io0 leeio Wns aeeminnrth iy could not lous
cheap nasty. satisfying w
pique are open work linen embroideries,
the sort of embroidery that in muslin is
called broderie Anglaise.
A dear listle suit seen the other day, a
frock and a reefer coat of pique, in which
shis same open work trimming formed the
Paritan or ‘Peter Pan” collar and the
oufls, and also she yoke of the frock below
the coal. A pretsy feature on the coat was
the embroidering of she buttonholes,
through which three big white mother-of-
peat] buttons on the frons passed. A deco-
rative touch on the childish garment re-
quires she nicest discretion, but this em-
broidered battonhole is altogether free from
objection, and yet effective.
Shantung cotton is another nice fabric
for juvenile frocks. Oue pieoe is fashioned
into a pretty frock trimmed with some
guipure exaotly vhe same tone as the beige
of the shantung. This, of course, was for
a bigger girl, between thirteen and four-
teen, who, indeed, was dressed all in the
same shade of color, her bat being of what
is called burns atraw, arranged with blue
cornflowers, carried round she crowd ina
simple, childish way, and finished with a
cornflower blue ribbon bow. The whole
effect was very pressy aod becoming.
To see the malsisade of samptuocns pes-
ticoats that have drifted into she shops this
ng is to dirabuse she mind of any idea
that old necessity of the wardrobe has
hecome archaic.
With the inorease in the widsh of dress
skirts, the kniokerbooker is drifting again
into the od. All she silk pessi-
coats, and the lingerie ones, too, for thas
mane, are of limp qualiy, a
mong some particularly attractive ones
there are soft surahs of fine supple weave,
but aod body which come in stripes in all
the fashionable color combinations or in
beautiful shadings.
There isy veritable craze for jet. It ie
used in several sizes for spatteriog and
embroidering gauzes ; it comes in bands of
many kinds and prices, in allover srim-
mings or made-up garnitures and in all
kinds of jewelry.
Ab the jewelry counter one is reminded
of long past daye by the hage carved jes
brooches and belt pins and buckles, she
et necklaces, jet combs, jes bracelets and
ot ornaments generally. One of the band-
somess ornaments in jes is the thin peok-
lace with carved pendant finished with
drops that gleam aod gline with every
movement of their wearer.
Jet is often mixed with soft tones in
choice trimmings. A French gray satin
gown had the bodice elaborated trimmed
with great raised circles of jes on a founda-
tion of black silk files.
Above the waist line there was an odd
drapery of black filet lace which ended in
a sash, and dropping over the akirt was the
only touch of elaboration given it.
The Gray Vogue.—Gray is baving a great
vogue just now for both men’s and wom-
en’s clothes. The gray mao is in wach
evidence, and he has chosen a partionlarly
silvery one of gray for his summer sais.
The gray favored by the fashionable
woman is one of the new grayish rose col-
ore, with a subtle touch of rose beneath
the gray. Dall silver lace is used to trim
such a gown when it is expressed in silk or
taced oloth, and another successful gray
Jia; ug Sou is in soft gray satin em-
broid in gray silk and dall silver, the
latter in a pewter tooe which shades well
wish the satin.
Infinite variety prevails in the summer
modes, and although the oracles in the
world of fashion would try and persuade
us to entirely disregard the sols, clinging
draperies of the Ditectoire period we are
loth to do eo, for is will be long ere we
shall find another mode so becoming.
Therefore it is a e conclusion that
they will certainly seec for many
months yet blended with the vormal
waists and taller skirts. :
A recens society bride was attired ina
mediaeval dreea copied from an old piotare
whioh oreated a furore of admiration ; it
was fashioned of white mousseline desoie,
a very novel note being the oream brocade
train, which was slang over the shoulders
and caught in front with a pearl and paste
ornament. The arraogement of the drapery
over the shoulder was reminiscent of thas
seen in Paolo Veronese’s well-known pie-
tare of The Vision of Ss. Helena.
It is an axiom that all jewelry is not be-
coming to all le.
In spite of a belief to the contrary, dia.
monds do not look well on the majority
of middle aged people.
Their intense brightness makes eyes and
hair and skin daller by contrast, so thas
only women who have retained much of
their youthful coloring may wear them
may be worn in the bair, or as
buckles or Eien in the trimming of
gown, but close to the skin they are likely
to emphasize wrinkles and other imperfeo-
tions, where such exist.
A woman with sallow face should never
wear jet. Dull gold oroameuts, oo the
She Knows You.
The telephone girl site still in her obair
and listens to voices from everywhere. She
hears all the gossip, she hears all the news,
she knows who is bappy and who has the
blues; she kuows all our sorrows, she
knows all our joys, she knows every girl
who is chasing the boys; she knows of our
troubles,she knows of our strife, she knows
every man who talks mean to his wile; she
knows every time we are out with the
boys; she hears the excuses each fellow em-
Blox; she knows every woman who hasa
ar ;8he knows every man who is in-
olined to be fast; in faos, there's a secret
beneath each sanoy oarl of that quiet, de-
mure-looking telephooe girl. If the tele-
girl told all shat she knows, is woald
turn ball our friends into she bitterest foes;
she could sow a small wind that woald
soon be a gale, engulf us in trouble and
land us in jail ; she could let goa story
whioh, gaining in force, would cause hall
our wives so sue for divorce ; she could get
all our churches mixed up .in a fighs, and
tarn all our S450 into sorrowing night ; in
fact she could keep the whole town in a
