FARMERS GOING BACK EAS1
Maly Advantagea Offered Worn Out
Firms by Adoption of Modern
Methods of Agriculture.
A good many men at the present
time are tiolng cast ( In many liistancnt
these were farmer boya back east b
fore they grew up and went weal) and
buying worn out, rocky homeetradi
that have been abandoned, hoping wltt
the money and Ideaa they gained In
the west to make theuiselvea wealth)
on the abandoned acreo near the bit
eastern markets
There should be a great opportunlt)
for active young, agriculturists with
modern agricultural training In the old
eastern states Many farms there have
been abandoned because of the d
pleted condition of the soli and the
fart that competition with the fresh
landa of the west was unprofitable on '
standard crops.
It Is said that at the present time
nearly 1.000.000 arrea of Idle farm land
Is lying along the boundary line be
tween New York state and Penneyl-
vanla Hurelv. with the great markets
at the very door of these landa, there
are for the eastern farmer wonderful
possibilities.

Seed Corn.
Next spring there Is going to be a
hlg demand for good seed corn. Now
Is tbe time to prepare for thla de
mand. It la well to select tha seed
from the field. If the ear was ma
tured before the frost th vitality la
not seriously Impaired. This corn
should be selected now and stored tn
a place where It can dry out within
a short time.
Incresse Value of Silage.
On wrltor says that alfalfa or
clover mixed with the corn when the
alio la being filled will add greatly to
the value of sllagn. This Is undoubt
edly true, but It Is atlll a question a
to whether the same feeding value
could not be attained more econom
ically by using th alfalfa and clover
for th dry feed.
Selecting Seed Corn.
In selecting seed corn save four or
five time a much aa you can po
Hbly us, for It will be best to select
very rigidly at seeding time and such

HCW GERMAN DOLL IS MADE
Interesting Process of Manufacturing
Heads, Arms and Leys Wlj
la Final Touch,
The making of the composition dolls
as seen In the (lerman factories, Is
an Interesting process, even thouu
some of the rooms are hot, ateamy
places where one does not crre to stay
long at a time, Mra. C. It. Miller writes
In Leslie's. First, there Is the knead
ing room, where a big mixing trough
U ae. up. and In thla all aorta of rag
bag material are to be found old
glovea. rags, bits of cardboard, etc.,
and gum tragacanth. Thla mixture Is
kneaded by hand to the consistency
of a paste, heated and carried Into the
moldroom. There It la dipped up
by women and poured into the pat
terns, which are set up in rowa. The
molds are put away until they are
cold enough to handle, when a work
man, by a dextroua movement of
hla hands, aeparatea the leaden aides,
and the doll's bead la revealed. The
polisher then trims off the ragged
seama and sends the beada to another
room, where the holes for the eyea
are cut out Thla la an extremely
delicate task, aa all the sockets must
be of uniform size. The work la done
by hand, a long, sharp knife being
used.
The bands are next painted, waxed
or glazed, depending upon the charac
ter of the material from which they
are made. Tbe arms, legs and bands
are molded In the aame manner aa tbe

POINTS ON CURING MEATS'
Process Should Begin From Twenty
Four to Forty-Eight Hours After
Slaughter Avoid Chemicals.
Meat should never be salted until
the animal beat la out Tbe curing
process should begin from ti to 48
hours after slaughtering. Thla
length of time Insures perfect cool
ing and freshness. It should not be
allowed to freeze.
Secure a clean, tight barrel. If a
large amount of meat Is to be cured.
A molasses or syrup barrel does nice
ly. A small amount of meat may be
cured In a stone JJar. Often a house
keeper has an opportunity to buy
cheap a piece of meat too large for
one cooking. Thla may be cured for
later use.
Salt, sugar and molasses are the
safe preservatives. Borax, boraclo
acid, formalin and salicylic acid are
considered by most authorities on the
subject to be Injurious to the health.
Tbe patent preparations which are on
the market for preserving meat should
be avoided. Saltpeter la used to give
the meat a bright color. It, too, la
considered harmful. Woman's World.
To Prevent Mould on Pickles.
When your tub of pickles In bulk la
becoming a prey to tbe attack of
mould It Is a sign of excessive damp
ness In the cellar or store room where
It Is placed. To apply a simple remedy
for this, place open versels of unslak
ed lime about tbe floor, changing or
renewing It occasionally when It be
comes moist and loses Its strength. To
remedy the mouldy pickles, skim off
every particles of mould which ap
pears on the top It will scarcely be
found elaewbere In the contents of
the tub and drain off and re-boll the
liquid replacing It with a few plecea
of horseradish root, cut thin, length
wine, allowing tbem to remain there
while the pickles are being used.
Grated horseradish will not do for
open vessels of vinegar pickles, aa It
soon loses Its strength and tenda to
ferment.

Put all together In aaucepan and

PICK-POCKET TKL'ST THRIVES
New York Judge Says City Has
Many Criminal Association.
New York A "pickpocket trust,"
and other compact organizations of
criminals exist in thi city'a under
world, according to testimony of
Judge Swann, of the Court of General
Sessions, a witness befoie the alder
manic committee investigating vice
conditions. Pickpockets dispose of
their loot at central "fences" after
being assigned to sections of the city
to ply their trade, and when they are
arrested they are abk jto get bail read
ily and lawyers to defend them. The
"trust" ia run like any lawful busi
ness, he declared.
"Many strong associations of crim
inals exist, well organized and con
ducted for the purpose of theft," said
Judge Swann. "There are, however,
many different kinds of associations.
For instance, there is the blackmail
ing association."
To crush these "trusts" Judge
Swann advocated that city detectives
be divided into separate groups, nom
inally known as the homicide group,
bomb-throwing group, and so on.
Referring to the "pickpocket
trust," Judge Swann told of one mem
ber being assigned to Broadway and
Forty-sixth street for five years, rifl
ing pockets and pocketbooks of men
and women in the mctinee crowds.
This member was arrested four times
and always the "trust," through its
representatives, came to his defense.

only feebly on the aggressive.

SUFFRAGETTES
USING BOMBS'
Beautiful New Home of Lloyd
George Is Wrecked.
Broken Hatpin Furnish Clue
Mr. Pankhurat Accept Full
Responsibility for Act.
London A bomb which was explod
ed in the country residence of Chaneel-
lor of the Exchequer David Lloyd-
George at Walton Heath Thursday
i morning, virtually destroyed the hand
some house but injured none. Police
inquiry brought the suffragists under
suspicion and a message from Cardiff,
Wales, quoted Mrs. Emmaline Pank-
y hurst as accepting the full responsibil
; ity for the act.
; "We have blown up the chancellor
of the exchequer's house," Mrs. Pank-
hurst said to an enthusiastic meeting
of sufTargettes at Cardiff. "The au-
thorities need not look for the woman
who actually did it. I personally ao
cept full responsibility for it."
Mrs. Pank hurst declared that if she
; were sent to penal servitude she would
; go on a hunger strike.
"The government will then have to
set me free, " she added, "or let me
, die. If I drop out a hundred women
are ready to take my place."
I The beautiful Lloyd-Georee country
residence is new and has not yet been
occupied. Mr. Lloyd-George himself
is on a motor trip through France.
Most of the rooms in the building
were wrecked. The bomb, which con
sisted of two seven-pound cans of pow
der, had been placed in oil-saturated
heaps of shavings in separate rooms.
Burning candles carried the flame to
the wood and caused the explosion.
The force of the blast split the brick
walls in all directions.
Finding of two hatpins in the
wreckage at once led the police to sus
pect women. Then came a report
from neighbors that an automobile
containing several women had passed
through the village early in the morn
ing. An official of the Woman's So
cial and Political Union, however, told
the police that the society had no
knowledge of the perpetrators.
"General" Flora Drummond, how
ever, declared that the explosion was
"undoubtedly the work of women."
She exclaimed enthusiastically: "I
think it is grand. It was a fine act,
successfully carried out, and shows
the determination of the women. I
say 'all power to all kinds of militancy
in tbe direction of harassing cabinet
ministers, short of taking human
life."
This is the second time within a
year that violent methods have been
used against the residences of cabinet
ministers, the first being an attempt
to burn the house of Lewis Harcourt,
secretary for the colonies, at Nuneham.
