ONE WOMAN'S PROFIT
MAKES ONK HUNDRED A XI) TH1R.
TY PEB CEXT. OX FOWLS.
The Example of Mra. Rata Hitch,
rpr Who Mirei Jfenr the Village
of DamarisrotU, la Worth Emulat
ing. Near the little village of Damarts
cotta, Maine, Uvea Mra. Rufus Hitch
cock, who flnda both pleasure and
profit in raising fowla. Her hus
band, while he runs a amall dairy,
willingly admits that his wife makes
more money than he does.
Many women feel that when they
have performed their household du
ties they have neither the time nor
strength left for outside work. Mrs
Hitchcock took vp poultry raising in
order to divert her mind and give
ber an excuse for being out of doors
for an hour or so every day.
The poultry houses, two In num
ber, are 61V by 10V feet and 41H
by 10 4 feet each. While they are
warmly built, there Is nothing In
the least fancy about them. There
are no partitions In the houses, the
fowla having the entire floor space
free. The flock number 470. In
the larger house 240 hens and 17
cocks are kept, while the. smaller
building 200 bens and 15 cocks.
Mra. Hitchcock believes In mashes
and feeds a warm mixture every day
In addition to this she uses oats and
corn. The youngsters are started
on a commercial chick food which la
red for the first month. Then comes
the mash with cracked corn and roll,
eu oats. All the hatching and rear
ing is done with incubators and
brooders. The cricks are all batch
ed early and are allowed free range
after the hay haa been harvested
in July.
Here, then, is a woman who, with
a capital of about 1600, Is able to
sell yearly efrss to the extent of
about $950, while the bens sold fetch
about $300, and the chicks marketed
add about $110 more; and the to
tal sales footin- up to $1,360, wjile
the average yearly feed bill amounts
to about $550.
Poultry certainly pays this woman
well; $810 on an investment of $600
is better than any mercantile busl
ess ever does, unless it is some "get-rich-quick
scheme. A. P. in the
Country Poultry.
To Get Correct Lengths for Skirts.
After the skirt is properly finish
ed and stitcned and the band firm y
put in place try It on. Now take a
tape measure and pin it around the
hips, tightly, so it will not slip, and
an equal distance, at every point,
from the waist line. Then carefully
place pins at Intervals, a few inches
apart, all around the skirt, Just be
low the measure. Before removing
the aklrt, ascertain the needed num
ber of inches In length from the
measure to the bottom of the skirt,
Then, after removing the skirt, run
a thread around In place of the plna.
aa they are liable to drop out.
Begin at the front, measuring with
a tape measure from the line at the
hips to the bottom of the skirt the
required number of inches all around
the same. For examp'e. If the de
sired length of aklrt when finished
la thirty eight Inches in front, and
tne measure is placed six Inches from
tne waist line, the required line of
measure from line at hips in to the
bottom edge of the skirt would be
thirty-two Incites.
Then measure thirty-two Inches or
whatever number of Inches is re
quired, from the line at hips to the
bottom of the skirt, placing pins at
Intervals all around. Now crease
Ue goods where the pins have been
placed, being careful to give the
right curve; then baste the hem In
place and try on the almost finished
skirt. If this direction has been
carefully followed you will scarcely
hav a change to make, and this
method I o easy and so quick com
pared to the old wey.
Oyster Soap for Two.
Pour half a cup of cold water over
half a pint of oysters; take each oy
ster la the ftDgers, remove any shell
that may adhere to It, and rinse In
the water. Strain the water through
a doub'e cheese cloth, heat it to the
boiling point, then add the oystors
an1 arafn heat quickly to the boil
ing rnt- In ihe meantime melt two
level tuhlcspoonfu's of butter: cook
'a It a elite of onion, a bit of pars' ey
an! a few bits of chopped celery.
When they are yellowei add a level
trhlosr-oonful and a half of Hour and
?ook until frothy; then add one cup
and a hair or milk or broth and stir
i:nti! the mixture is smooth or bolls;
then strain into the oysters. Add
salt and pepper as needed, and a lit
tle hot cream or milk. If the soup Is
thicker than it Is des red.
Womea Photomicrograpliers.
Dr. V. A. Latyam, of Chicago, and
M'ss Mary ... Booth, of Snrtnsfleld.
Mass., are said to be the only expert
women photomicrographers in th'.s
country. Photomicrography, be It
understood, is the delicate art o'
taking photographs through a micro
scope. Ate Ecgs 100 Years Old.
At the banquet given in San Fran
cisco recently to celebrate the estab
lishment of a Chinese Chamber of
Commerce priceless Chinese delica
cies were served. Among the guests
were fifty Americans. Although chop
sticks were used, all of the apeech
making was la English.
Bom of the Item in the dinner,
that cost $26 a plate, were aa follows:
Snow fungus, which retail at $40 a

THE COURAGE OF GEESE
A California Man Corres to Defsns of
Maligned Bird.
Among the defender of the goo
I a realdent of 8lerra County, Cali
fornia. The especial Incident upon
which he bases his defense of the
foose, and which Is printed in the San
Francisco Call, happened several
month ago. The story 1 given In
hi own words:
I wa on my way to a neighbor'
place several mile from my own.
when I noticed a large flock of gees
coming south. Tbey were white
gees with black wing, and were fly.
lng in the usual V-shaped formation
In looking at them I noticed a black
eagle, an unusually large one, com
ing from the east. He was flying dl
rectly toward the geeae, although hi
course would carry him a little below
them.
The geeae ssw the eagle about the
same time that I did. Before he ar
rived opposite them they gave decided
signs of uneasiness. I saw that they
were beginning to break np their roe
ular formation, and I watched with
curiosity to see what would be the
outcome.
Hardly had I noticed their commo
tlon when they formed Into two bol
tow square, me eagle was now op
poslte and a little below th geese
One squar hung perfectly perpend -
cular In the air, with hardly a flutte:
of the bird' wings. Th other hun
motionless, but In a slantlnng poel
tlon. If th eagle aaw them he gav
no sign of attention, but kept stralgh:
on hi course. Then, Just as he ar
rived directly underneath the geese
something happened.
With a concerted movement tb
geese that formed the lower or slan'
lng hollow square swooped down I
the direction of the eagle. Their ud
den rush caused the eagle to turn ou
of his course and fly rapidly towarr
the north. The g-ese then wheeled
and flew back. Joining the birds whlc
had remrJned almost motionless It.
the perpendicular hollow square.
The two groups having Joined, tb
V formation waa again assumed, and
the geese continued their flight to
ward the south.
I never heard of an eagle attackln;
geese. Besides, this eagle wa hardly
in a position to do so. His evident In
tention was to fly along about his own
business. The geese were the one
who made the attack, if such It could
be called.
Sunrise on Kansss Ranch.
The sun was rising in the West,
and shed its beam on Cedarcrest
where pensive goat and sportive cow
were perched upn the cedar bough
There Frank McLennan watched hi
flocks, and slugged the gentle sheei
with rocks, and drove his hen tc
lakelet's" brim that they might dive
and batbe am. swim. The pigs wer
climbing elm and firs the hired met
gathered cockleburs; a doctor passed
on horse's back, ard all the duck
called loudly "Quack!" The frui
tree agent asked t . stay all night; the
horses whinnied "Neigh!" Peace hov
ered over tbe prairie wide; the cattle
lowed the horses hlgbed; and sounded
through the village amoke, the bar',,
of watchdog, elm, and oak; and h
who owned these rustic scenes had
aeeded down his farm to beans.
On Vacatlona.
It Is related In Mr. Stewart Ed
ward White' book, "The Mountains.'
that once upon a time a man happened
to be staying In t hotel room whlc'
had originally been part of a suite, but
which waa then cut off from the oth
era by only a thin door through
which sound carried clearly.
It waa about eleven o'clock when
the occupant of that next room came
home. The man beard th door open
and close Then the bed shrieked
aloud as somebody fell heavily uon
It There breathed across the alienee
a profoundly deep sigh.
"Mary, said a man' voice, "I'm
mighty sorry I didn't Join that Asso
ciation for Artificial Vacations. They
undertake to get you Just as tired and
ust a m. d In two days as you eould
by yourself in two weeks."
When Fashions Lasted for Yea re.

slight modification for year. Much

long reign of Loul XIV., and another
through that of Loul XV, wall th

American Llmburger.
It Is now claimed that the United
States makes just aa good Llmburger
cheese as does the province in Bel
glum, where it originated. The Anier
lean method la to take a piece of a
cairs Btomach and set It away in a
warm place In a can of whole milk.
In about forty minutes the curdling
n.ess la pounded and then the whey
pressed out. Afterward forms are
Ailed and further drainage permitted.
Salt is rubbed on the outside until it
become slippery; then the cheese it
set away in the cellar, where It la left
to ripen for a month or two, and the
germ do the rest
Mustard.
Mustard la the oldest of condiment,
the Egyptian regarding It aa an aid
to digestion. The ancient ate It
freely, and it waa sold by peddlers in
Solomon's time. The Norman and
Anglo-Saxons in the earliest times
never went to war without an ample
supply of prepared mustard, they con
sidered It both food and medicine.
