In drawn work and in tricate designs of cross stitches t'.e girls are adepts. It is a part of their education also to learn to design pat te-ns of their own. While the Viennese girl learns all al"ut sewing separately from the dressmaking business, she is also sent later to a dressmaking school, where she learns to draft patterns and pre mare herself so that sbe can make the clothes for the entire family. Household scien: e in all its branc-hes and in the most thorough manner is t lie next thing on the program of educa tion. Formerly it was the Lusiness of the cook to teach tooki g in all its phases to the daughters of the household. Now, however. the cooks have rebelled, and the girls attend cooking schools, although some of them are sent to restaurants to learn from the chefs. Household linen is to the Viennese girl what the china cupboard is to Americans. The linen is tied up with dainty ribbons and placed on shelves in the linen cupboard, not in drawers, as is done in this country. Fur and Flowers for Winter.

This coin cides with fashions in furs generally, which gives to sable and marten the first'place. Both hats and toques are covered with fur. In some cases the skin is merely stretched over the form as might be a square of velvet or a flat plateau, the piece used for lining brought over the edge in a roll. This arrangement is the one generally em ployed for marten, but Russian sable, with its elegant ma! kings on the back, is subjected to a dii:erent treatment; the skin is so placed on the form that these markings form circles running parallel to the edge of the brim and encircling the crown, while instead of being stretched out flat it is made to n slight flolds, following the same uaged in this wise is on one side, the n the- onter side, i- pla:es by two continued the colonel ch .n hm "Now, I know a fellow wb ndhnhave come out with me, but the bet- fers to wo:k himself to deatl dou.

Wool or Mutton. The-e is such a thing as feeding lamb- and ewes either for wool or mutton. If for wool only, a pasture diet is generally sufficient; but when for mutton or an increase in the wool, grain is essential. For good muttou both ewes and lambs need grain food. There is a good mixture in corn meal and flax seed oil meal. Clean the Plow. Tlhe department of agriculture thinks that having a-plow clean and bright is of saflicie-t iiportanc3 to warr: t it in publishing directions for cleaning it, which will also work well for other tools of iron or steel. Slowly add one-half pint of sulphuric acid to one quart of water, handling it care fully and stirring slowly, as consider able heat will result from the mixing. When cool moisten the surface of the metal with this, and then rub dry, after which wash off with pure water. This application shot.!d clean any sur face not too badly rn' ed, but if the tool has been long neg ected it may requi: e n:ore than one application. After they are thoroughly cleansed we would advise a thorough coating of grease before putting away, and when they are taken out to use give them another greasing and they will go "one horse's draft easier," as the old farmer used to say his scythe did after it had been prol.. ry whetted. Not only is it umuch ea.iier for the team, but for the plowmnan, if the plow is clean and bright, as the adhering soil makes it handle hard when the plow is rusty. Tre:tment of 'Iilk for I:ottlinu. If milk is from a healthy cow that has wholesome food, pure air and water, and the milk carefully drawn in a pure atmosphere, we may reason aL1y expect the intercellular spaces in the milk to contain nothing objection able to the organs of smell or taste. Considerable auimal heat is of course present at first, but this passes off quickly during the cooling of the milk. Indeed, if obtained in the' manner just deser:bed, milk may be bottled and submerged in ice water before ii becomes fairly cold, with the very best of results. - This.4a 1s.th proner e erf ho 1 in I 'w d E r ea. T the same crop he is produci g. ifi he is to compete with them successfully he must be able not only to select a soil exactly suited to the crop, but to know the best methods of preparing the soil and cultivating the crop. If he is not able to do this he will lag. behind, and his profits will be greatly reduced. He- must also learn how to put his prodnee up in the most at tractive form, so that when put on the market it will at once attract the at tention of the buyers.-American Ag riculturist. Fertilizing Corn for Grain. Farmers well understand as a rule that live stock are fed with reference to what is expected of+hem. Feeding, for example, for milk is a very -differ- - ent thing than a mere maintenance ration or from a fattening ration. In the same sense, crops may be fed 'for grain or for forage-that is, stalk and leaf. Few farmers but~lised4-ad,experi ence with a rank growth of stalk, t a light yield of grain, in growing corn, and in some cases this may be desir able. Corn grown for the silo is a very differen matter from corr9own for grain, and no observant 21irmer will use the same methods of culture for both. It sometimes happens, very fre quently, in fact, on soils long under the plow, that though the corn is grown for grain, the yield is very dis appointing. Lack of rain does -not al ways account for this, as neighboring felds prove satisfactory though sub ject to the same climatic conditions. Throughout New England corn is commonly grown on clover sod. It"is noticeable that the poorer the sod,the poorer the yield of grain, though the stalks may inake a brave showing so far as height is concerned, though f they are generally badly down at har vest. This is due directly to a lack of mineral fertilizer, potash and phos phates. Clover roots and stubble carry con siderable potash and phosphates, but clover, like other plants, may be starved in mineral plant food,, though still making a great show of growth. The writer has seen clover fields which_ promised at least two tons per aer but which barely gave one when p to the test. Corn on such clover is sure to give a light crop- - and also grain_whichiill upin
