ROOT CROPS FOR DAIRY COW
Turnips and Other Like Root Vegeta
bles Make Fine Milk Producing
Feed Add to Variety.
No matter what soma people tell
you, lurnlpa and other roots make
One milk producing feed. Turnips
will not affect tha flavor ot milk. If
fed at the right time.
If turnips are fed In large quanti
ties and two or three hour before
milking, they era likely to glye the
milk an unpleasant taste, but If fed
directly after milking, no flavor
whatever will be noticed.
A peck of turnips to each animal
per day la sufficient In most easel.
A good plan Is to feed directly after
bay In the early morning, and once a
day la often eonugh.
A little salt scattered over the tur
nips, which should be chopped In
quarters or smaller, add to tbslr
payability.
Hoots make a very valuable addition
to tha winter ration, because they
add to the variety of the feed, and no
animal on the farm appreciates va
riety more than the dairy cow.
In Wisconsin. Iowa and other
western dairy atates the root crop
la becoming a very Important part ot
the crop of the farm.
Rules For Measuring Com.
There are many rules for meaaur
Ing corn. Inquiries conducted by tha
Missouri Htata Hoard of Agriculture
how the following In common use:
Blitaen cublo feet of corn In the
hock (or extra well settled 15 feet)
make a barrel. The number of cublo
faet multiplied by the decimal .
gives the bushels. Multiply together
the length, width and height of tha
pen or crib. In Inches, and divide by
4.100 Tor old corn or 4,300 for new
corn, to get bushels. Where It can
be done corn should be weighed
rather than measured.
Getting 8esd Grain Early.
Do not wait until spring to cloan
and grade your aoed grain. Po It now,

NOT BEHIND EUROPE
American-Tailored Frocks
Best in the World.
the
Horn Designers No Longer Rsly en
Parisisn Modiatts for Idsai Soma.
Naw Blousa EffacU in tha
Latest Costs.
NKW YORK. To the glory of Amer
ican designer (and Incidentally
to our own, allien we create the de
mand) b It suld that In one depart
ment of dress this country has forged
to tint front with astonishing rapidity.
Whim It comes to tailored frocks the
American woman need ask no odds of
anyone. Nowhere els can they be
found In so great a variety, from tha
severely simple suit, with neverthe
less unlmpeachably good lines, to the
elalxiratn three piece gown of genuine
artistic beauty. Take them as a whole,
Aiiiorlean-tullored frocka are the beat
In th world.
A curious proof of this Is found In
tbo fact Hint even thn twst New York
bouses that make tailored suits for an
exclusive clientele, do not wait for
the 1'aria openings before submitting
tbelr own spring models. At a recent
exhibition of tailored designs by one
of these establishments an Inquiry for
a certain n, ember of the firm brought
this reply:
"Miss Iilmik? She Is abroad now
U) obtain the new models of costumes
and gowns. Tailored things? Ob. she
will bring back a few. Hut." with a
satisfied smlli), "America leads Eu
ropu In tailor madus now."
New Bloused Jacketa.
Twenty or thirty new models being
produced In support of this statement.
It will be of Interest to describe their
salient featurbs. Most conspicuous
among the coats were those having
tlw upper part bloused over the tlght
flttlng lower portion. This blouse went
Into a seam aeverul Inches below the
waist line, the seat being Just cov
ered by the fulness falling over It. The
skirt portion of this Jacket was round
ed abruptly away from the front. In
fact, tho coat fuHtened only at the
bust and the rounding off began at
once, Tho plain lower part wua quite
abort and fitted very snugly, being ab
solutely flat nil around.
The sum Idea was repeated In
many variations. In a separate coat,
for eXHiupl, of bright green velours
dn liilnn (the nap being In squares In
stead of the moHt common stripes) the
tlfctit-fitting part around the hips was
not more than eight Inches deep. This
coat was not cut away In front. The
nch lower part buttoned snugly
around the blps with two large white
pearl buttons.
It was a good deal In the style of
the Mackinac Jackets so popular last
summer, except that the upper part
bloused over this band around the
hips. It Is intended for country wear,
to bo slipped on over a white frock.
It will be chiefly, perhaps, worn by
tennis and golf players or by specta
tors at those games.
Hut the samn bloused jacket Is
shown with street suits for town wear.
It was In evidence In tans and browns,
In whlto and magenta pink. The ma
terials were wool ratines, crashes, pop
lins and other materials, both silk and
wool. On very sllnder figures the de
sign was attractive. I'osslbly It would
not be half bad on less willowy wom
en, for this blouse effect at the waist
line, with tho tight-fitting hips, gives
Just the opposite result from tho or
dinary bloiiHe whose amplitude con
tinues all tho way down.
For Large Figures.
This brings up the ever-burning
question of what shall be done for the
sartorial salvation of the stout wom
an. A plaintive petition, addressed to
this department, begs for aid In solv
ing that perennial problem.
"Designers seem never to think of
tho stout and elderly, or even the
stout and not elderly" complains this
correspondent. "And yet." she adds,
"we must be clothed."
It wouldn't be a bad Idea If dress
making and tailoring establishments
would have at least one woman, of
more generous proportions than the
average sllverllko girls who act as
mannequins, and dedicate her to the
exhibition of designs for making the
best and the least of a too-ample
ftguro.
Novel Coat Linings.
Linings, by the way, are a distinctly
Interesting feature of tho new Jackets.
Printed foulard, of a color to match
thn outside. Is one of the new Ideas.
A Russian blouso of magenta pink pop
lin brocade (all In the same tone) has
a lining of foulard In the same shade
printed with small figures In white.
This coat Is trimmed with buttons cov
ered with tho poplin and with largo
simulated buttonholes of black silk.
The best le of black suede. Many
brocaded linings are shown, too; some
In tho same shade aa the coat mate
rial, others In contrasting colors.
So rapidly are we becoming accus
tomed to this seasons's rainbow
scheme of colors that already we talk
of "magenta pink coats" quite casu
ally. Even a year ago we should have
been dumb before such a tint In a
sulL In the same way we are accus
toming ourselves to the contrasting
sloeves, an old fashion that Is being
served up to us once more, although
when It Is "out" again there will be
none so poor aa to do It reverence.
Many Buttons on Skirts.
All the suits seen at the opening re
ferred to were conspicuously trimmed
with buttons of original shapes and
colors. Sometimes, as In the case of a
ratlno frock In sulphur yellow, the
largo ball buttons matched the cloth
Mean.
William Corcoran Eustla, the effi
cient chairman of tho Washington in
augural committee, said the other day
of a proposed Inaugural economy: "No,
that would look odd. It would look
too much like Scrooge. Scrooge, at a
board meeting, cut his finger, and
asked for a piece ot slicking plaster.
Nobody had any pleats, but s mt--

lu color. Contrasting ones were also
used, especially of black or white with
a colored suit. Tbey were liberally
disposed on almost every skirt shown.
All these skirts bad drapery, but It
was of a restrained sort In the wool
materials. The kind tbat crosses In
the front or at the side, leaving the
skirt open to considerably above the
ankle, was a characteristic of several
gowns. One of sin. .herd's plaid was
open In front hair way to the knee.
With this was wort a cutaway coat ot
black satin. Most American women
would choose to wear a drop skirt of
the satin with this model.
The slit Is really necessary, as the
skirt Is so narrow below the knees
that walking would be impossible It It
were closed all around. In some cases
the drop skirt also Is made extremely
narrow, but Is slit up In the back
where the opening will not show. In
this way a surprising ease of move
ment Is given, while tho effect ot ex
treme narrowness Is retained.
One of the season's novelties Is a
sleveless Kushui) blouse, somewhat
reminiscent of the jumper so popular
a few years ago. It reappears In this
changed guise now In figured silks,
or some of the self toned brocades.
The trimming Is of ornamental but
tons, and there is a contrasting belt
or girdle. It la worn over a thin waist,
and, unlike the jumper, is to be put on
or off as If It were a coat.
8leveless Bolero.
A sleeveless bolero Is a feature of
a recent Paris model In lustrous black
silk. It Is quite loose and Is embroid
ered heavily In a Bulgarian design,
but not In colors. Under it a very
wide, soft sash encircles the waist. Is
loosely knotted at one side toward the
back, and falls In long ends, finished
with heavy tassels. The waist worn
under the bolero Is of tbln white silk
crepe, very loose and formless, with
full sleeves gathered Into a cord at
the depth of a dropped armhole, and
The Newest Cutaway.
again Into a loose band a little above
the wrist. The skirt Is draped In long
folds, crossing both back and front.
Many wide soft sashes covering part
of the blps are shown. They are un
deniably becoming to certain figures;
but the woman with unrepressed hips
will. It la to be hoped, refrain from
swathing herself In this Oriental drap
ing. Combinations of contrasting materi
als are Increasingly shown. In one
model seen four fabrics were em
ployed, Chinese blue brocaded crepe,
black satin, lace d'Angleterre, and
black velvet This multiplicity of fab
rics Is found In wraps also. Dolly
Varden printed cotton materials are
shown In combination with white. A
French model has a coat of the flow
ered stuff with a skirt ot white
trimmed with buttons covered with
the material of the coat A little close
fitting hat of the two materials, with
tight bunches of tiny rosebuds, goes
with the costume.
The lines of the suit Illustrated are
all of the latest mode. The yoke,
with Its heavy corded edge, extends
quite around the shoulders in the cape
line. The cut of the shaped band,
which edges tho coat, and tho weight
ed point at the back, holds the gar
ment close at the sides, making the
narrowest part of the figure Just be
low the blps.
Tho material Is black basket-weave
suiting with embroidered linen collar
and cuffs, done In bright colors and
bright red and black buttons.
Oilcloth Apron.
One of the greatest economies I
have found Is the use of an oilcloth
apron, writer a contributor to the
Woman's Magailne. I make It saiall
and rounding like a tea apron, bind
ing the edges with tape. When wash
ing dishes and doing other rough work
round tho stove or elsewhere I wear
It over my regular kitchen apron and
find it saves half of the washing and
Ironing of aprons. When soiled it can
be wiped off.

Robert Louis Stevenson, for so wise
a man, seems to have been singularly

ot health, but that, too, may have
bean part of Ms wisdom. He spent
tha winter of 187 In the Adirondack,
struggling against the disease which
was not to subdue him for seven
years. He lived in a little cottage that
was much overheated and from which
all ventllfalon was carefully excluded.
Thejsmokn of his Incessant cigarettes
obscured the atmosphere and perhaps
helped to drive away the visitors who
came to gaze upon him aa one gazes
at a lion In a den. Fashionable call

Stevenson once remarked, according
to an account In the Medical Itecord,
that "It Ixn't the great unwashed
which I'd read, but the great washed."

GOT HIS NOTE8 MIXED UP
Absent-Minded Man Has Some Diffi
culty at the Book Store and
the Grocera'.
As the little man walked absent
mindedly along the sidewalk be sud
denly stopped in front of a bookstore.
It recalled to him the meaning of that
piece of string on his finger, and with
a brightened face he entered.
"Just a minute," he said to the
clerk. "My wife wanted me to get
a book for her a certain novel she's
heard a good deal about. I must find
the memorandum she gave me. She
wrote the name on a slip of paper,
and I put It In my pocket."
After considerable fumbling he pro
duced a small bit of paper, and laying
It on the counter, took out his spec
tacles and adjusted them on bis nose.
"Here's th ne Cobb's Corna
tine. Yes, that's It"
"I I'm afraio i don't know the
book, sir," said the clerk apologetical
ly, "but I'll look turouKi) me list ut
new ones." And he ran his eye over
tha list on the wall. "No, I'm sorry 1
to say I can't find it here. You are
sure of the name?"' '
"Yes, it's light here on this piece
of paper." i
"Well, I'm afraid we haven't got I
it then." j
"But but I dont dare to y home
to my wife without it. I promised to;
get . it for her. j
The clerk called to another In the
back of the store, who came forward.
