nigh Price for Dairy Product.
Tho following Is a statement Is
sued by the Dairy Division, U. 3. De
partment of Agrlcultura, with' ref
erence to buttor fat prices received
by farmers in tho Mlddla Northwest
during 1907, which Is of interest
to our readers:
There are approiimately 6.099
reamories in tho United States,
making a total of 500,000,000
pounds of buttor annually. Tho
average not price per pound paid
farmers for butter fat ranged from
4 to 5 cents highor in 1907 than in
190G. This w-uld ina.cita an In
reased return of 20 to 15 million
dollars to tha patrons tor tho year
just passed.
An interesting thing about the
reamory business Is the fact that
1,800 of tho 6,000 creameries are
o-operative plants, and tho number
o co-operativo creameries is con
stantly growing. The groator num
ber of creamorlos that havo gone out
of buslnoas for ono reason or an
other In tho past few years have
been the Individual creameries, own
ed by Individuals or corporation!.
Something ovor a thousand cream
eries, mainly in tho Middle North
west, havo reported tho results of
the past year's business to tho De
partment of Agriculture. Theso re
ports are nearly all from sections
whoro the local creamory (either
co-oporatlvo or individual) predomi
nates. Caroful estlm-itea havo been
made from thoso roports which
Jihows that the net prioe paid far
mers for butter fat i these cream
eries averagtd between 28 Jnd 29
cents for the year 1907. Tho low
est price paid was in June, whon tho
avorajo waa botwoen 21 and 2C
contj.
Theso l rices aro true only for tho
local creamery, which receives Its
cream or milk direct from tho far
mers' wagons, whore there Is neither
commission to pay for buying cream
nor freight or expresses charges for
transporting It to tho churning plant.
Commission and frolght average
from I to 3 conts per pound. Far
mors soiling cream to agents who
havo to ship tho crtmm to different
churning points may expect to re
colvo 2 to 3 cents less per pound for
buttor fat than prices paid by local
areatnerles.

Boned Undergarment Keeps Billowy
Flesh Within Bounds.
What with banting, rolling, dlotlng
and performing nil sorts of acrobatics
nnd unpleasant tasks, tho life of tho
stout woman lias roccntly boon a end
one. Rubber underwear and marvol
lous corsets havo been advertised In
profusion nnd now comes a California
woman with an undorgarmcnt Uiat Is
designed to aid In tho wnr against
fat. This garment Is n two-section nf-
fair, boned from the waist up to the
armplta and down over tho hlp3. Tho
advantago of this boned part is that
whon tho garment is drawn in tight
with tho drawstring at tho waist It
compresses the superfluous flesh Just
ae a corsot would do with tho addi
tional advantage of fitting closer to
tho body than a corset. A woman
wearing such an undergarment, too,
v-ould be able to dispense with a cor
set, thereby acquiring greator freedom
of movement and having a more slend
er apoarance by reason of having
fower layecs of clothing on.
The Useful Side Pocket.
Housekeepers will appreciate a gift
of a side pocket to be worn about the
morning tasks. So equipped, a demand
for purso or key docs not mean a trip
up stairs or a wild search.
While leather pockets can be bought
for such uses thoy do not quite fill tho
need for house wear, as they flop
around and rub the skirt
A pocket such as tailors wear, but
more artistic, will prove convenient.
This Is made of heavy, smooth cloth
In envelope shape, and stitched on the
machine. Cut a strip of cloth twelve
Inches long and firs inches wide. Fold
up the end to the depth of two and
one-eighth Inches from top to nia'ce
the pocket Slope tho edge beyond the
pocket Into a point, like tho flap of an
rnvelope. This point is provided with
a buttonhole to fasten to tho belt
The pockot part should have but
tons and buttonholes or patent clasps
along the upper edge. Though deep
pnough not to drop the contents, It Is
often convenient to close tho top
when working actively.
The edges of the bag may be finish
ed In Beveral ways. When making It
for one's own use the edges may bo
pinked, and tho turned up parts stitch
ed on the machine. When intended as
a gift elaboration is preferred. If
pinking is liked, a line of briar stitch
Itg can be run around the bag with
in the line of pinking. This can be
worked in a contrasting color, and a
monogram in the same color can be
embroidered In the centre.
Again, the edges can be neatly
bound with heavy satin ribbon or a
lite silk brald.t This usually looks
be'ter In self tones, the monogram be
ing tho one touch of color.
Child a Botanic Genius.
Millie Snow, n daughter of a farm
laborer, exhibited no fower than 109
specimens of wild flowers nt a flower
show in Halberton, England. She Is
only 15 years old, still her knowledge
of wild flowers in Englnnd Is sur
passed by only a foww exports who
have given their lives to tho study.
The child Is credited with a genius
for nature study, and Is being en
couraged to follow her bont. Sho was
awarded n special medal, In addition
to the valuable prize sho won, for tho
finest wild flower exhibit. Many chil
dren had wild flowers on show, but
none of thorn approached that of lit
tle Mllllo, which had both quantity
and quality. It waa found also sho
had laboled all of the 109 specimens
without an error.
To Perfume the Hair.
Ono of the latest aids to beauty Is
tho perfumed nightcap. This Is very
much Uko the cap worn by our grand
mothors, but on a much more ulabo
rato scalo, being mado of silk or vory
fine muslin, trimmed witli filmy lace.
Cunningly concealod In tho cap Is n
tiny receptablo for scont, and when
worn it leaves a dollcato perfume
clinging to the hair. It need not nec
essarily ba kept for night wear alone;
if it Is put on for half an hour or so
before dinnor tho porfuino will cling
to tho hair for the ramalndor of the

THB GOOD ROADS
PROBLEM.
In England, where tha road prob
lem is somewhat different from ours,
consisting of tha damage to previous
ly good roads by automobile traffic,
intsead of tha absence of good roads
suitable for tha latter, It has come to
be realized that the difficulty is large
ly one of maintaining a surface suit
able for mixed traffic. It Is pointed
out that in the old coaching days
those vehicles were often mora numer
ous on tha highways tnan motors are
now, and that It Is only since the rail
ways so greatly reduced road traffic
that highways came to ba considered
a legitimate playground for children,
dogs, and chickens, so embarrassing
to the automoblllst Tho further
elimination of horses, dua to the in
creasing use of automobiles for all
purposes, will soon bring about a
state of things in which highways will
not be subjected to two opposed meth
ods of wear and tear which cannot be
resists! by tha same means, and the
problem of maintaining a durablo and
dustless surface will be greatly sim
plified. CHEER FOR THE

PROTECTING
PARI8IANS.
Underground passages for pedes
trians are to ba built at various points
beneath tha Champs Elysees, which
tha constant stream of motor-cars
now renders Impassable from morn
ing till evening. The congestion of
other Paris streets also has grown to
an alarming extent, and all thorough
fares round tha Opera are blocked
with traffic for hours, morning nnd
afternoon. If the Champs Elysees
tunnels prove a success, othors will
be excavated in the centro of Paris,
and foot passengers will in future
cross not ovor streets, but under
them. It had been hoped to build tho
approaches to the Champs Elysees
underground passages in inclined
planes, down which perambulators
could have been rolled easily, Dut
this has been found too costly, and
only staircases will be provided.

a volco: -
"'HI, there, you with the deadly
aim! Look here a moment
"I looked around nnd saluted, recog
nizing Gen. Washington, and he said:
'"What's your name!'
"'Hogan,' I said.
" 'Your first name?'
'"Pat. sir Pat Hogan.'
"'Well, Pat,' he said, 'go homo.
You're killing too many men.'
" 'I think I'd better get a few moro,
General,' I said, kind of apologetic.
"'No,' he said, 'you've killed too
many. It's slaughter. And, Pat, don't
call me General; call me George.'"
CUTTING.
"Dudley, the football player, had so
many cuts on his face his own mother
