That the agricultural course as added to the town high scbool course may be of definite, as well as of very prac tit-al value lf Known In the work done by this deimrtmeiit of the Albert Leu JlInn. blk'li school during the pant year In the matter of formlnu a cow tenting aHHOt-litlluu. A good deul of Interesting data were collected, and so Die valuable facts were brought to light Among t Irene was the discovery that the poorest herd tested averaged but ninety pounds of butter fat pet cow during the year, while the average production of the bust herd was 3lfl pounds of butter fat. In the one nine the net profit per cow was 17, while In the second It was over $50. Indi vidual cows that were tested. It wan found, bud lieon kept at an nctiml loss. If the establishment of these agri cultural courses in high schools did nothing more than to arouse the farm ers of the community to the necessity of weeding out the loafers iu their dairy herds they would amply Justify their establishment. But they will do much morenot only confer a definite practical good upon the community, but tire many nn otherwlne indifferent Itoy with n desire to know more ulmitt the fundamental principles of a Itetter bm well as more scientific type of ngrl culture.

A decided novelty In tailored wear Is this coat with cutaway fronts aud a watteau plait at the back. Coder the plait the coat fits the Hgure trimly, and the waist line is clearly defined. The costume Is by a famous French dressmaker, and the combination of tan broadcloth coat and pannier skirt of brown velvet Is thought very chic in Parts. A bat of light tan colored moire silk faced with black velvet and trimmed with a 'shower' feather ornament matches the costume, which is com pleted with long tan gloves. ' BATHROOM LUXURY. Porta bit 8 ho war 8pray That la Practi cal and Convenient. Almost every person can afford the luxury of a shower bath, since It Is possible to bay a portable one at such modest prices. A shower bath of the most practical kind la marked at a few pennies less than So, and after deraon atratlaf Its merits no one.wqukl go without such a comfort who had the' price to pay for It The fittings were substantial, arranged with flxtnrea for attaching to the waJU an extremely strong rubber pip and curtains of heavy sail dock such aa tenia are made of. Tbeao wooW bt a perfect protection to walla or paper. At inch a low price ooe expecta only the most flimsy outfit and to pa? W for something that would soon get out of order or prove impracticable Is Just like throwing money away. Then for those who feel even So Is beyond their purse there la a bath spray that Is not at all a bad substitute for the shower bath. The prices for rubber and rose nozzle begin at 50 cents for the small sine. For rinsing the hair these sprays are excellent, as the forco sends water right Into the scalp, cleansing In from soap most thoroughly. By the way. there is a little shampoo bag lately In troduced which costs only 10 cents and can be dried and used over and over again. The outer covering is cheesecloth, with a spongy suhstauro Inside charged with soap and perfum ed powders, said to be very cool, cleansing and refreshing. PLANTING BULBS. Roptemlier Is the time for planting n unrulier of the flowering bulb whose blossoms are prized alike for beauty up well as richness of fragrance. Among these are ttio catla, crocus, hyacinth. narcissus and tulip. This Is for outdoor bedding purposes. Kor indoor use the bulbs should bo put In pots at once or several 'weeks later, depending upon the time when one wishes to hove the plants bloom. The writer has found the four Inch tomato enn satisfactory for the hyacinth and narcissus, the Jugged tops being removed by putting In a bed of coals. The bulbs should be sot In these about half an Inch below the surface In a llf.t sandy soil, the pots when ready being put in a box and covered with two or three inches of soil and the whole being given a thorough watering. Waterings should be given at Intervals so that the soli will be kept moderately moist A suc cession of bloom amy be bad by taking up the pots containing the bulbs after they have rooted, one or two at a time, and placing them where they will de velop. In the case of the hynclnth and similar bulbs It Is well to remember that the richest bloom Is had If the plants are nut exposed to the direct sunllghtj A NEEDED LAW PASSED. The bill mentioned In these notes some wcks ago that provides for the thorough Inspection of all Imported nursery stock, fruit vegetables and florists' stock lately passed both houses of congress and became law on receiving the signature of the presi dent The securiug of this needed legislation. In which the United States u,ntll now has been behind all other civilized natluns, should be a matter of congratulation for all those Interest ed to the tilling of the soil and la Ub various products in floriculture, hortl culture aod agriculture. Immense loss baa been Indicted upon the Interests mentioned by peats that nave gained access to the- country as result of there being no adequate Inspection regulations la force to ward them off. Becoming taw thus late, the new regu lations cannot prevent loss already sustained, but tbey will serve to keep other pests out and prevent the spread of n fungous or Insect pest from one state to another. i TREES Can't Beat Douglas Count Grown Trees Italian Prune Trees, 4 to 6 ft. 1 yr old $140.00 per 1000 Apple 4 to 6 ft. 1 yr. $6 per 100 $50.00 per 1000 Peach Trees, 4 to 6 ft. 1 yr. 12 cents each 1 j Pear Trees, 4 to 6 ft. 1 yr. $25 per 100 j $225.00 per 1000 Cherry same price as Pear: ft lots of other atitvk, all guaranteed true to name and flrst cbias.

PROTECTION FROM LIGHTNING. A friend whose house has been nil by llghmiug three times In the past tlve years asked the writer the other lay about the value of lightning rods !S a means of protection durtug elec rtcul storms. The truth about this natter can be put in a nutshell. A Ightuiug rod poorly Insulated and tm trojierly grounded Is worse than no rod .tt all. for while It attracts a bolt ol iluhtnlng It In no way protects the structure on which It Is erected. On rhe other hand, n rod properly put up outeK as ueiir being complete lusur- ; nice niralnst lightning damage a it is losslhle to have. Such un equipment ! hould be secured from a reliable flrui !

The gi'inhling liistliu t Is as commoe ro the inau who tills the soli as to tltr llov who hang u round race course In the former class It is noticed In his ivlllingiicss to run the chance of serl us damage to his grain through thrush Mtg It from the shock rather than -tacking It us soon as cut and thrashing at leisure later in the fall, rrulmblj in one-half the seasons us they coim and go shock thrashing may be done with fair satisfaction, but the trouble with the business lu states that are subject to late summer rainfall Is thai mie can uover forecast the weather n week ahead. The result of tills Is that If one Is on the tall end of the thrnsh lug list and the went tier Is bad his grain is likely to be In bad shape before he gets It tu the blu. If slacken at om v the gralu can tie thrashed at leisure, and the stubble can be plowed euriy. which Is another distinct advantage. PERKINS BLOCK ROOM 324, 3rd FLOOR TUITION 25 for full course.
