Nowhere can there be found a great
er vat 'v or number of fa::cy em
broidery~stitches than in the schools
of Vienna. 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.
Among the principal novelties is

fur-covered toques and La-. 8a%

sively for purpose: chivehill: is
relegated to quite a third rate posi
tion, and astrakhan is altogether ta
booed in the first houses. 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

FOR FARM AND GARDEN
Feed'ng .'. 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. -

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- -
