Stock Ralsing and Beets, In all countries whore the sugar beet is made a specialty much considera: tion is given tho value of the beets as cattle food; that ls, the residuvm, af. ter the sugar is extracted. By feeding stock In connection with the growing of the beets for sale to the factory, car: rying home the pulp for stock food, the farmers’ opportunities from the grozv- ing of beets are increased. Experi- ments in Pennsylvania show taat the yields of beets range from ten to fif- teen tons per acre, and the average amount of sugar to exceed 12 per cent. The farmer will have to contend with wet and dry seasons, and his profits will be more gome years than during others, but it is believed that farmers have neglected the beet as an import- ant food for cattle, independently of its use as a source for procuring sugar, not that the beet is as valuable us grain, but because farmers will find a | larger Increase in production from | cattle by reason of the feeding of suc- c¢ulent food, and although there Is some preparation required for all kinds of roots before feeding them to stock, sueh labor is unnecessary when the beet pulp from the factories grain giving better results tban when beats or grain are fed separately.— Philadelphia Record.

Judze Dole, an early sett in the cou: \ty of Wyoming, York, was a military man in his aarly days. having, to quote his own words, “fit the Britishers” in the ir of 1ST: ! And be carried his habits of military disciptiue into tlic management of bis | farm. One hot summer day his hired men, five or six in number, decided to take a nap after their luncheon of doughnuts and pie. instead of setting to work ngain at havmaking. They selected one of thelr number to act as sentinel ana keep wateh for the old judge, and the rest of them stretched themselves at tull length in the shade of a big tree. Unfortunately, or fortunately, the sentinel also yielded to the desire for ¢lumber, and at the end of ten minutes wis tast asleep at his post. Just five minutes later the judge ap- peared, to see how the work was go ing on, and he saw at once the state of affairs. From the sentinel's posi- tion the judge knew what duty the man had heen expected to perform, ane withont waiting for any explanation, lie proceeded to administer a sound drubbing with his stick. When he had suffic iently admonished tle sentinel, the old judge let him go saying, “There, I guess that'll learp vou not to sleep on your post!” And without taking the least notice of the other sleepers, the disciplinarian marched off. perfectly satisfied.

A second table may be evolved by using the longest spokes of the chair back as legs, only in this case the shape of the table's top had best be triangular and for it three legs will be sufficient. This will make a very small table, and need not be stained or painted if a bright cover is thrown over it; but its most convenient use will be to hold a light tea kettle at 4 o'clock.

Some women like them, but they are apt to be ‘the women who enjoy wear- ing highly colored gloves and veils. The least irritating of these new hand- kerchiefs to a woman with really re- fined taste have merely a scalloped edge of fine colored embroidery and a tiny initial in one corner. Flower Embroidery. Flower embroidery forms a con- spicuous element in the trimming of gowns, writes a Paris correspondent; indeed, there is a danger that it will overstep its purely decorative place and transform a costumeinto a display for fine needlework. Purely decora- tive and conventionalized patterns seem better suited to the adornment of dresses than even the most marvel- lously worked patterns designed after nature, but it is the latter that is to be considered. Shoes for Pet Dogs. Dogs belonging to some fashionable women are now made to wear shoes. These shoes are made of chamois _and have light leather soles. The idea of the inventor was to protect polished floors, but the women who have adopt- ed the shoes for their pets say they have done so to protect, not their floors, but the tender feet of the dogs from cold, heat and rough weather generally. The next thing pet dogs may be turning out in trousers and gowns.—New York Sun. From Clerkship to Partner. Miss Marie Catherine Finegan joys the distinction of Deing a mem- ber of the firm of commission mer- chants in Chicago, and has risen to that position from the lowest rounds of the clerical ladder. Fifteen years ago she began work for the firm as cashier, at a salary of $5 a week. The second week she asked for a raise and received it, this being the only time she was obliged to ask for more pay. By watching closely the work of others she soon obtained a knowledge of their tasks, so that today she is so well posted in all the detail3 of office work that she can, at a moment’s no- tice, take charge of any of the many books used in the commission busi- ness. en- German Wives and Their Property. When a woman marries in Germany her property becomes her husband’s, absolutely and torever. He can dis- pose of it whether she objects or not, and if the couple are divorced the property band. When she marries gives up the small degree. of pendence she had before. Her she inde- prove harsh and unkind, except pub- lic opinion. While German wives, as a rule, seem contented enough with the present venerable law, wealthy American girls who have married German nobles in haste and in ignorance of it, have fre- quently repented at leisure.—New York Tribune.

Birds, except the white doves, are no longer used on hats. The fact is not due, however, to the hue and cry of the ladies in the alpine hats and who would look algurd in a picture hat. Fashiun has so decreed it. Butter- flies on invisible wires hover over the dainty concoctions of lace, chiffon and flowers that grace my lady’s head. Sometimes there 1s a flock of butter- flies and each with jeweled eyes and head. A Common Pocketbook. The pocketbook question is one of the most serious difficulties of married life. There are very few women who find it pleasant to ask for money, and the number will g-ow smaller as rap- idly as the years go by, for every year more and more girls learn the ness of independence. A girl who has earned her own living, even tle while, never will be entirely satis- fied unless made to feel that she has as much right as her husband to what he brings inte the house.

Girdles. A new design in girdles is composed of two parallel silver chains about an inch apart. They are held in place by vertical bars of silver at intervals of three or four inches. Diamond-shaped and circular pieces of silver are used instead of the plain bars, and are én- ameled and set with precious stones. The girdle is also shown mounted on black or brown leather belts, and is generally of gilt silver. Among the designs are silver disks, enameled pansies on silver, surrounded by wreaths of forget-me-nots. Velvet belts with diamond-shaped buckles of oxidized silver are popular. - A coun- terpart of the buckle 1s worn at the back, and on each side is a circle of silver of a design similar to that of the buckle. Another leather belt is in imitation of a dog collar studded with little pyramids of silver,and with aname plate at the back. Steel Hairpins Doomed. The attack now is upon the steel hairpin, for specialists declare that the shell or bone pin is better for the and that many women have. suf- nervous head- cause lay in the metal hairpin. But what shall we do without the little implement which might be called ‘“woman’s best friend?” How are you going to supply the 75 demands that we make upon a hairpin? We use it to button our gloves and our shoes, to open the drawer whose lock is gone, “to cut the leaves of our books, to clean our husband’s pipe, to pin on the ex- tra wrap, to draw the cork when the corkscrew cannot be found, to wedge a rattling window sash, to stone rai- sins, to fasten a card to the bellpull in snow time, to do duty as a bodkin and render no one knows how many little services of this sort. The shell substitute is good for none of these things, and if it be doomed to crowd its humbler relative from the market we can only exclaim, ‘‘Though lost to sight, to memory dear.’ Philadelphia Ledger.
