As the new building is said to be the most complete and convenient of any ever built for a eoiuuioivial house in the United States, so were the expres sions of appreciation by the many per sons who visited it for inspection sin cere and of a highly congratulatory nature. Tlw dedicatory program included open house from 11 a. ;n. to S p. m. vith concert by the Mace Gay orches tra and the presence of a Boston caterer to attend to the wishes of all.

Disappearing Forests. The National Hardwood Lumber A socW.tlcn at its recent meeting in Memphis adopted a report that pre sented the dire possibilities of the de struction of the forests in the short ?eriod of thirty-five years. It was es timated that tihere now stood in the United States in the neighborhood of 1,475.000,000,000 feet of lumber, but hat 45,000,000,000 feet of lumber was seins cut every year.' The report re commended the immediate prohibition 3f log exports and exemption from axes of tree plantations. Attention was called to the desirability of State legal enactments along the last line, and some constitutional provision by the general Government of like effect. Mention was made of the custom pre vailing in France of retiring: a tree .o be planted for every tree cat down.

Simplicity in the dining-room is se cured by the use of doylies and nap kins, in the place cf tablecloths. Very artistic table strips of coarse linen crash may be made at small cost. The crash costs about 25 cents a yard, and one long anil two shorter strips will do for an oblong table. For a round table two equally long si rips are better. Hemstitch the ends and stencil or block print designs above the hems 5n dull old blues, reds, or yellows. Use oil paints very thin, with turpentine. It is better to experiment on hits of the crash be fore, venturing on the table strips. Use little color, and avoid the heavy effects.

In selecting a suitable place for spending the time to the best ad vantage for getting a maximum of uijoymeiit and real benefit with a minimum of outlay in time, energy Hid expense, one naturally looks to YYrightsville Beach, on the extreme "astern coast of North Carolina, as a spot offering- every advantage.

Many inquiries have been address ed to this department asking for advice on how to kill dandelions in lawns. The best means, of course, and surest, is to dig them up, root and all. This is tedious, however, and expensive. Try in case the digging process is not em ployed, the sulphate of iron solution. Use a good sized handful to three gal lons of water and sprinkle this over an area twenty feet square. It will not injure the grass and will kill the dandelions at least some of them. Show Birds for Egg Production. One of the best investments the writer ever made was a $25 cock in troduced among a flock of pullets raised from a-dol!ar-a-dozen eggs. The pullets were fairly well bred, and from good laying stock, but the in troduction of the high-bred cock, a show bird in the sense that he was bred for perfect markings and form according to the standard and scored over 90, gave me chicks that were a good many percent better from the standpoint of egg production than their mothers. Summer Use of Grains. The feeding problem in some' sec tions is quite formidable in the sum mer as in the winter, and this is par ticularly the case where the feeding is largely done in the barn, which, by the way, is becoming more popu lar every year among dairymen. What grains one shall use depends largely rpou the methods which individual feeders have found most profitable in the past, but corn, in the summer ra tion, must, he sparingly used. The stock foods or the concentrated grains, purchased already mixed, ought also to be handled carefully and particu larly so when little or no pasture is given the animals. No All-Round Poultry Food. A correspondent asks tor some poul try food which will answer for gen eral purposes that is, a food which will make hens lay, which is also good for little chicks and which may be used for fattening later if 4 desired. :uvices n, ni.um, is tic .tunc likely to be more cr less disturbed by the amount of detail required to carry on the work su.-vessfully and are gen- erall.v seeking for some short cut, es- pc-ciaiiy in ihe line of feoding. The same food which will make hens lay without fattening them will not do to fatten them on. Of course corn is usually a part of the variety fed hens and will of itself fatten them. bat. it is not used by itself as a regular diet for laying hens. It would be as ab surd to feed hens cracked corn tn '.irely as it would be to feed little chicks the whole kernel Indianapolis News. Testing for Water. Make this test in dry wvathe'r and in dry ground. Take a new earthcrn pot gallon will do dig a hole in the ground on the spot whero you want to dig your well, about a foot or so aeep; put ounces of eac slacked time, into the pot six extract ;f the following: Un- vertligris and wdiite frankincense; powder and taix, put in to pot, cover pot with six ounces of sheep wool. Now weigh all and. get exact weight and make note of it; now put pot into hole and cover hole tip with dry earth. After 24 hours take pot up again being careful not to have any earth adhering to it. He sure and get earth out of wool quick ly and weigh pot at once. Nov:, ii the weight has decreased, there is no water on the spot. On the other hand of the weight has increased two ounces water stands 48 feet deep: sev en ounces, 87 feet, twelve ounces IS feet. The pot and its ingredients draw moisture even at gi'e.ii depth.

It 5s much easier for one to be itide pendent of dry weather than of wet unless the soil is naturally wet. so that it may be pipe drained and thus get rid of the excessive moisture and this is an expensive operation, but, not withstanding, a most desirable one ;u the end. Potato growers are per haps more interested in the problem of how to battle with dry weather than growers of any other crop, and -under normal conditions, the secret is sim ply to see that the soil is properly supplied with humus or vegetable matter. n is roity, or win ue liniuu so alter i a few years, to attempt to grow po- i tat of s on the same ground year after year or to grow them wholly by the aid of commercial fertilizers. Here is vhe-ro if pays to make every possible effort to grow clover for getting heavy crops of clover under the soil will add the required humus, which, in oiinection with first-class seed, care and cultivation, will enable one to ;tov heavy crops of potatoes in nor aa! seasons and better than your neighbor's in dry seasons. This question of getting humus into the soil is one that must be met soon er or biter by every farmer and es pecially by those who pin their faith very largely to commercial fertilizers. The Onion Maggot. Every onion grower should prepare io combat, this destructive pest and begin early. The onion maggot is the immature stage of a small fly that lays eggs in the onion when they are .ery small. The fly looks something .ike a small house fly. The maggot appears when the plants are quite young and works directly; into the bulb entirely destroying it for use. Of course al! infested plants should be carefully taken out aud burned as soon as discovered. Treatment with kerosene and sand 'or small patches of onions and treat- men; v ith commercial fertilizers for large fields is recommended. The kero sene and st'.nd treatment, consists of .Mucins sand with hercsene oil alone- !ii8 vounsr plan is, but not unite lotn hbtg hem. It kceus the flies from laying their eggs and l:i.

When the rain comes it will wash the salty fertilizers into the soil and kill the maggots, be sides stimulating the plants to fresh vigor and thus help them to overcome the effects of the pests. -The Epitom-ist. Earth for Hog Fen Floors. While the cement floor may be the ideal one for the hog pen, as claimed by many swine breeders, our experi ence has been that the floor of earth, if it is of clay and gravel, will answer the purpose ecmally well with a small number of swine. If we had large herds we should certainly use cement, which can be applied at any time with the earth floor as a foundation. The one floor which ought not to be used is ihat of plank, and the reasons are obvious to every one who keeps swine. They are cold, wet and slip pery, retain odors and are expensive besides being bad for the feet of the hogs. In making the floor for the hog pen, and we have the same sort of floor for the yard, it is made by taking out the soil for the depth of three feet, filling in a foot deep with coal ashes well packed down and then putting on the two feet of soil about evenly composed of clay and gravel, using the gravel which comes from a heavy or clayey soil, if possible; if sand gravel, as it is sometimes called, is ail that can be obtained, the sand is screened out and the gravel mixed with the clay in the proportion of two parts of clay to one of gravel. By giving this floor the proper slope both in The pen and the yard, it does not stay wet. long, and is so hard that bogs can not root in it, while being yielding enough so ibat they do not slip on it, and the under stratum of ashes carries oft' the moisture which penetrates through. I Floral Hints for the Amateur. ! Asters, sunflowers, popies, nastur I limns, larkspur, dahlias should be J sown in the garden at once. Keep a j sharp lookout for frost, however, and i cover the tender seedlings with news- 1J;,pprR everv n;ght that u tUreatens. i Jf VQU wa"nt ,lanl8 for conspicuous ; ,,oaiJon8 on vom. lawn or for ,,acli ; in ,,01.dftr use (iahHas. cannas. i ... . ,niaa 5iuiii,ii, stain L on iuuiu'i The Risinus or castor oil bean, is excellent as a center for a combina tion bed with scarlet sage, cannas or caladium, the well-known elephant's ear. j it is a good thing to water plants j freely the evening before they are ! transplanted. This will keep the ! roots from drying out. ! This is the time to take the gerau I turns from the cellar and window and i put them into beds. ; After the poppies are up a few inches they should be thinned out, retaining only the strongest plants. Don't overlook the fact that pansies and sweet peas should be picked every day if one wants fine blossoms. fioil that is heavy and hard should i hr. ,liau lighter by mixing sand with tf. . especially in setting out shrubs, i Pt;o The Kenilworih ivy makes a. beauti ful, graceful, railing plant for a bas ket or for drooping from a box on a banister. Plant a few stalks of lavender in the flower bed. Iu addition to being a pretty plant, it is useful in packing away clothes in the fall. Castor oil beans make an effective background for a bed of flowers or a fine plant for the side of the yard where the clump plants are put iu. Those who have little time to de vote to the cultivation of flowers should plant biennials and perennials. Many of them are very attractive and none require much care. Farm Notes. Watch the poultry weaklings. ! Pinch the heads of the worthless ! queens. i V mulch works well around the j gooseberry bushes, I Put another window in the old, dark poultry house. Plow the orchard shallow, not deep er than four inches. The branches of the peach tree ought to be thinned out to let ia the sun. Poultry culture will never do for drones. It requires live, wide-awake men. Poultry work requires the same shrewdness that any other occupation j (toes. Save your own seed, or buy the best seed at four times the cost, if neces sary. Lard alone is a good insecticide. It does not need kerosene to make it ef fective. We have yet to hear of the first poultry farm that was built up by dunghill fowls. Make the hens dance for their greens by hanging the cabbage up above the floor. Scrubs? and runts may serve their purpose, but why allow them to prop agate their kind? Don't buy a lot of things you do not need, merely because the agent's tongue is hung in the middle and loose at both ends. If you wish to increase the fertil ity of the farm, raise more clover, feed the hay to the stock and return the manure to the land. If the orchard is to be plowed, spring is the best time. The more that can be added to the soil and the less removed, except as fruit, the bet ter. If you would get the best returns from your investment in your horse, treat him right, and be sure to clip him in the early spring. Horse Re. i view. . 1u"'.? . ' , V. T ,Tl,,rt tl.rt I..-,..

Ground oats are much more valua- i l ie as loud for stock, fowls, ec., than is wheat, bran. Equal parts of ground oats, bran and Indian meal make an ideal ration.

Embroidered piqas coats are much worn by little children, and if you buy a good pique with a rather fine cord it will launder and wear very well. Ona charming little coat that I saw re cently had a wide shoulder cape with an embroidered scallop on the edge, and with several rows of large round dots worked above it. The turnover collar and cuffs were embroidered in the Bame manner. The best way to make the dots is to work them in tha over and overstitch from side to side, and then, using the same stitch, work them from top to bottom. This pads them thoroughly, and makes them stand out most effectively. RAISING SWEET POTATOES. Prepare the ground, which should be a well fertilized sandy loam, thor oughly and throw it up into ridges as far apart as ordinary corn rows. Set the plants IS inches apart in the cen ter of these ridges, pressing the soil firmly about the roots. Pour a cupful of water around each plant and a soon as it sinks into the soil cover the spot with dry dirt to prevent evapora tion. Run the cultivalor through be tween the rows once before the vines commence to run, then mulch heavily and no more work is required until digging time. C. B. Barrett, Thur man, Kan.

Leave it lor 24 hours, when you rub it up with linseed oil; then leave it for twenty-four hours; then polish with beeswax and turpentine. A man can make a good deal .of money in stocks by being careful not to have anything to do with them. BLOATED WITH PKOPSV.
