As the plants grow rapidly and the ears are marketed before the seed matures, the crop Is soon out of the way, to be followed by crimson clover, 'i'o have sweet corn grow and reach the market quickly the land should be well ma nured, and In addition about 100 pounds per acre of nitrate of soda applied by broadcasting when planting the seed. The Klntl of f owls to Keep. The kind of chickens to keep upon n farm depends almost as much upon the kind of man who manages tlicm ns upon any other condition. There are no uii'dH which stand neglect better than the common, mongrel barnyard fowls, tor these have lived and devel oped under unfavorable conditions and are accustomed to shift for (hcmaelvcs. They are generally hardy, vigorous, and yield a fair return In eggs or as table poultry; they respond fairly wc:l to generous treatment, anil, if selected with some care, ore by lio means to be despised, even when their product Is compared with that of the standard breeds.

With tho colt, at with She child, curly, education and Inipics- slons are lasting and more easily Im parted than rtt any other period of life. Hence the necessity of commencing early. The colt should 1m accustomed to the ways of man before he is a week old. At this age he can be handled without danger. Leaving a horse to mature before he Is broken is about the poorest economy one can think of. Not only the danger attending the handling of n wild horse when fully grown, but the further fact that the horse Is never safe. The safe horse Is always In demand nt much better fig ures than the half broken one. As the expense of producing horBcs is destined to increase, we cannot afford to put our horses on the market unless thor oughly broken. N. J. Harris, In Twen tieth Century Fanner. riia lint Hoc Pastnra. The cheapest, quickest and best hog pasture Is the alfalfa. It Is a rank grower and keeps ahead of the hogs. This Is nn Important feature, to have a pasture that Is a full supply for the li "id of swine. In pasturing hogs it Is best to have small Inclosures and ar ranged so. the herd can rotate In graz ing, taking one pasture one week, an other the next, and so on, thus keeping on practically fresh grass all the time. A few acres can be made to pasture a large number of hogs when confined to suitable lots. The hog pasture Is nn nuxlllary to the feed lot. It should not be made to take the place of the feed lot or the corn crib. The hog raiser who makes a success of hog raising and hog feed ing will use the pasture to help in the growth nnd health of his hogs. A large hog lot with adjoining pastures Is a convenience that the hog raiser should provide on the farm. The bogs can thus be let on to the pastures at will and shut off to suit the demands. The pasture Is almost ns Important ns the feed lot. If you have not the alfalfa hog pasture you should lose no time In starting one. Somo sow tape for the hogs lo pasture on, others sow rye, while some sow sorghum. Any green crop is better than a dry lot. Swino of all ages should be sup plied with a liberal allowance of green feed, nnd the more permcnent this supply can be made the cheaper It will be and the less liable to neglect In this important feature of hog feed. Ne braska Farmer. Fenoa routs. lu many sections of the country where timber Is scarce the question of fence posts is a serious one. In t;in berless regions where soft woods are iriYiwti fnv tho nurnnHP. flhnnr four years apparently ends the usefulness I of a post that is cut and set in the usual way. If well seasoned before setting, another year or two may be added, but the pest problem Is very un satisfactory. The posts may be doubled or more. In durability by a simple process of sat uration by lime. A pit is dug three toot deep, and three inches of fresh quicklime is spread on the bottom; tho posts, already pointed for driving, tiro set on end lu the pit close together, with as much lime scattered among them as Is possible up to the level of the ground. A ridge of enrth Is raised around the stack of posts, and water is poured lu upon the lime, to slack It. The slacking of lime causes consider able bent, by which the moisture of the timber Is driven out by the expansion. The cooling of the posts and lime, after the slacking is over (care being taken to make the lime sufficiently liquid) causes the timber to absorb moisture again, and thus the liquid lime is ab sorbed by the wood, the acid of which Is thus neutralized; as It is this acid which causes the otherwise rapid de cay of the timber, the destruction of it by the lime avoids this effect, and the timber is very much increased lu dura bility. To get the best results the posts should be seasoned. If they are laid down in the trench the whole post will benefit by the treatment. The Eplto- Uilit. A rracttcal Brooder Home. The average farmer does not wish to go to the expense of a hot water sys tem for brooding early chickens, but there are ninny who would like an eco nomical plan for brooding a few hun dred early chickens.

Set on legs as it is, the attendant does not have to stoop over his work, and with the raised run for the chicks, they are brought on a level with the brooder, so they can easily run in and out. This run Is coated with gravel, and cemented. Allow six feet for each brooder and pen and you have three feet at the end of each brooder suf ficient space to give access to each pen, which can bo cleaned from the BROODER KOUBE. walk with n short-bandied hoe or rake.

Modern jewelry, nnd perhaps more .specially summer Jewelry, emphasizes the fact that the artistic side of Amor ,ca Is growing. Time was, and not so long ago, a fashionable Jeweler Informs us, when the scml-preclous stones sim ply could not be sold here. Even rubles And emeralds were sacrificed, when disposed of at all, at half or a third what a diamond of the same weight tnd quality would bring. Even in dia monds urtistlc mountings were not In any great demand. The Idea was to icquire diamonds, as many ns possible, and of a size that suggested one might realize on them promptly a gambler fsque sort of property thnt was fondly supposed to be ornamental as well as useful in times of need, when one's uncle would exchange It for spot cash. Not even the man who .still sticks to (his solitaire willingly pays a consider. able amount to have It reset In one of the beautiful hand-carved mountings, While summer Is the time of times to display bracelets, owing to the el bow sleeves so general for house nnd evening wear, yet, we are Informed the tremendous vogue of the armlet will not bo entirely felt before autumn. There are. Indeed, more designs under way than can be finished before fall, So far the snake is the winner. Jew- tied snakes, their graceful scales built upon a spring, are first choice. The gold is manipulated In oriental effects, and Is richness Itself. A great favorite, too, Is the new chain bracelet. These are set across the outside with five precious or semi-precious stones. Smartest among the belt pins are the new ones in perfect safety-pin effect, the front being paved, with a row of diamonds preferably. It seems reckless to have these plus at the back' of the belt, but, since we seldom hear of mishaps, no doubt they're safe enough. The diamond barrettes are in the very same finish, little showing save the stones. Platinum is still the smartest mount ing for diamonds. Its whiteness may not add to theirs, but It certainly takes nothing away. But it is in the colored stones thnt the newer art shows to most advan tage. A ruby in an antique, rose-gold, hand-carved niouutlng Is as gorgeous as a dream. Exquisite Is a delicate pinky, baroque pearl In a very pale rose-gold environment, with a few tiny starry brilliants by way of emphasis. Emeralds are better in the dark, green ish gold. But any and all stones are only mounted after due consideration. The marquise ring is revived with n vengeance, especially for wear on the little finger. There's no more graceful shape than this long oval, and if well designed it Is beautiful. A splendid example shows a long opal of wonder ful quality. It Is surrounded with dia monds. Bow-knots aro "It!" They have crowded out the whole family of bugs, insects and crawling things. They ap pear lu brooches aud pendants. Oue in diamonds shows each little streamer tipped with a diamond and an Alex andrite. The whole family of neck laces Is more or less on graceful La Vnlllere Hues. Womankind is taking to fobs, the sportier the bettrr. A very clever one Is of black leather, with the cleverest charm, consisting o a gold horseshoe with diamond nailheads, and a plati num stirrup Inside the horseshoe. It is a gem. Philadelphia Record. "As You Like It" Garden Party. Instead of providing a contest or other sports lu which all guests arc expected to Join, the hostess leaves each arrival free to spend the hours according to funcy. Various ways of passing the time are provided; the visitor dips Into this or that as whim decrees. For example, a couple of card tables are placed under the trees for those who feel energetic enough for whist or euchre. A corner contain ing conversational rocking chairs tempts those who feel Inclined towards a chat. Some of the ladles will enjoy a. bit of fancywork. To meet the re quirements of this pastime the hostess produces a half-dozen unembroidered dollies stumped for workiug, with needles, floss nnd scissors. Again, the laucywork may take the form of n chelrographlc cushion or table cover ou which names of guests ure written with lead pencil nud afterward em broidered, retaining as far as possible the character of the autograph.

Outing Uowdi, For the middle of summer exiting gowns,' under which beading are in cluded the costumes for nil out-door sports, require to be made of much tblnuer materials than those Intended for wear In the spring or autumn. There are days In most climates when cveu the thiunest flannel seems quite tjo heavy, nnd when the only com fortable material to wear Is one that may bo laundered and inado up with out any lining. The wash silks are quite as cool, Indeed, rather cooler, than the fabrics which require to have starch In them, but tbey are the only. exception to the rule of cotton nud linen, and may indeed be called wash fabrics, us they go Into the tub quite as often as do tho piques aud linens. Short skirts are necessary, but they are now not unbecomingly short. The side-pleated and box-pleated designs are fashionable as well as those which might be called imitation box-pleats aud side pleats, very narrow tucks so stitched as to look us though they were largo pleats. Pleats and tucks are stitched down to quite near the font of the skirt and then allowed to Care, giving quite the tame effect si the seven or nine gored skirt, which Is cut with so much flare this year. Harper's Bazar. Tha "What-Yon-Call-It" llahl. 'One of the minor advantages of clubs," said a bright woman, "Is that they tend to the prevention and cure of the 'what-you-call-lt' habit." 'The what?" asked her hearer. amused. "The 'what-you-call-lt' habit! I mean the habit of forgetting names and call ing everybody 'Mrs. What-you-call-lt,' or 'Mr. What's-hls-name. When you meet so many people, with many of whom you are barely acquainted, you must learn to remember nnmes, or you'll make enemies, l'eople don't like to have their names forgotten. It Irritates them. It's an unspoken as sertion of their Insignificance." "But I thought forgetting names was a natural infirmity." "It is supposed to be; but natural infirmities, like other difficulties, yon know, are opportunities for the great! You have no idea how much can be done toward overcoming them." "It sounds very heroic"' "Of course. Without a touch of the heroic we become flabby or common place, or both. It takes mental power to overcome the 'what-you-call-lt' habit; but ouce having wrestled with It und conquered It, you realize the value of available Intelligence." New York Tribune. The Lemon as a Toilet Article. Apart from Its use for n beverage and culinary aid the lemon may be made to serve several other uses. A little Juice rubbed on the teeth oc casionally will prevent the accumula tion nud remove the deposits of tartar, and tho juice Is also said to prevent chilblains; diluted with a little soft water it is very cleansing to the scalp and acts as a tonic, nnd It removes stains from the fiLgers and nails. Mixed with equal parts of honey and cologne It mukes an agreeable whiten Ing lotion for the bands nnd prevents the nails from splitting and the skin from growing over them. A little fresh lemon juice, applied after steaming or washing the face in hot water, will loosen obstinate black heads, aud the lemon sklus, after tho juice has been extracted for culinary use. If tied In cheesecloth and placed lu the water pitcher or bath will render the skin very smooth, white and deli cately fragrant. The juice of a lemon, taken In a cup of hot water without sugar before breakfast, is very helpful in some cases of imperfect indigestion. American Queen. Kre and Urm, The color of the eyes should deter mine the choice of the dress aud mil linery. A blond may wear pure white with ndvantngo, but the brunette nearly al ways looks better in cream colored fabrics, says Woman's Life. This ought to be more generally recognized.
