committdtt afterwarl, as I wrapped up my
gestures and put t'-iem back in the shawl
strap, I said that I felt almost ashamed to
receive such a price for the sentiments of
others, but they said that was all right. No
one expected to hear an agricultural address.
They claimed that it was most generally
purely spectacular, and so they regarded my
speech as a great success. I used the same
gestures afterward in speaking of "The Great
Falling Off Among Bare Back Riders in the
Circuses of the Present Day."
Mr. Church writes that the club has taken
up, discussed and settled all points of impor
tance bearing upon agriculture, from the
tariff up to the question of whether or not
turpentine poured in a cows ear ameliorates

gestions and questions for discussion. That
shows the club to be thoroughly active. It
will soon be spring, and we cannot then dis
cuss these matters. New responsibilities will
be added day by day in the way of stock,
and we will have to think of names for them.
Would it not be well before the time comes
for active farm work to think out a long list
of names before the tittle strangers arrive I
Nothing set ves to lower us in the estimation
01 our fellow farmers or the world mora
than the frequent altercations between own
ers and their hired help over what name they
shall give to a weary, wobbly calf who has
just entered the great arena of life, full of
hopes and aspirations perhaps, but otherwise
absolutely empty. Let us consider this be
fore spring fairly opens, so that we may be
prepared for anything of this kind.
One more point may properly come before
the club at its next meeting, and I mention it
here because I may be so busy at VV ashing-
ton looking after our other interests that I
cannot get to the dub meeting. I refer to
the evident change in climate here from year
to year, and its effect upon seeds purchased
Of florists and seedsmen generally.
Twenty years ago you could plant a seed
according to directions and it would produce
a plant which seemed to resemble in a general
way the picture on the outside of the pack
age. Now, under the fluctuating influences
of irresponsible isotherms, phlegmatic
springs, rare June weather and overdone
weather In August, I find it almost impossi
ble to produce a plant or vegetable which in
any way resembles its portrait. Is it my
fault or the fault of the climate! I wish the
club would take hold of this at its next regu
lar meeting.
I first noticed the change in the summer of
73, 1 think. I purchased a small package of
early Scotch plaid curled kale with a beauti
ful picture on the outside. It was as good a
picture of Scotch kale as I ever saw. I could
imagine how gay and lighthearted it was too
day it went up to the studio and had its
picture taken for this purpose. A short
editorial paragraph under the picture stated
that I should plant in quick, rich soil, in
rows four inches apart, to a depth of one
inch, cover lightly and then roll. I did so.
No farmer of my years enjoys rolling any
better than I da
In a few weeks the kale came npbut turned
out to be a canard. I then waited two weeks
more and other forms of vegetation made
their appearance. None of them were kale.
A small delegation of bugs which deal mostly
with kale came into the garden one day,
looked at the picture on the discarded paper.
then examined what bad crawled out
through the ground and went away. I be
gan to fear thea that climatic influences had
been at work ou theaeeds, but I had not fully
given up all hope.
At first the plants seemed to waver and
hesitate over whether they had better be wild
parsnips or Lima beans. Then I concluded
that they had decided to be foliage plants or
rhubarb. But they did not try to live up to
their portrait Pretty soon I discovered
that they had no bugs which seemed to go
with them, and then 1 knew they were weeds.
Things that are good to eat always have
bugs and worms on them, whiie tansy and
castor oil go through life unmolested.
I have had other similar experiences, and I
think we ought to do something about it if
we can. I have planted the seed of the
morning glory .and the moon flower and
dreamed at night that my home looked like
a florists advertisement, but when leafy
June came a bunch of Norway oats and :
bill of corn were trying to climb the strings
nailed up for the use of my non-resident
vines. I have planted, with song and laugh
ter, the seeds of the ostensible pansy and car
nation, only in tears to reap the bachelor's
button and the glistening foliage of the
sorghum plant. I have planted in faith and
a deep, warm soil, with pleasing hope in my
heart and a dark red picture on the outside
of the package, only to harvest the low, vul
gar jimson Vi and the night blooming
bull thistle. -
Does the mean temperature or the average
rainfall have anything to do with itf If sta
tistics are working these changes they ought
to be stopped. For my own part, however, I
lim led to believe that our seedsmen put so
much money into their catalogues that they
k not have anything left to use in the pur-
base of seeds. Good religion and very fair
cookies may be produced without the aid of
ccuraway seed, but you cannot gather nice,
f resh train figs of thistles or expect much of
a seedsman whose plants make no effort what
ever to resemble their pictures.
Hopinz that you wilt examine into ibis
matter, and that the club will always here
after look carefully in this column for its
farm information, I remain, in a Bitting
posture, yours truly. Bill Nye in New York
World.

LESSON IN' DRESS-MAKING.
Garments Cat. Pitted and Donned la a Bar
prUlngly Short Time.
The style of a woman's gown bai be
come a matter of such importance that
not only is the country flooded with
fashion magazines, but the staid news
and literary journals succumb to the
ruling demand, and publish every week
one or two columns of fashion articles.
Ladies read them with anxious interest
and spend hours and days of precious
time in constructing garments in accord
ance with them. I wish to draw a con
trasting picture.
Last spring I received an invitation
from a friend, the wife of an army offi
cer, to spend the summer with her at a
post in New Mexico. Of course I ao
eepted, and rich visions filled my mind,
making a kaleidoscope of noble red men,
owboys, bronchos, brass buttons and
military bands as only a young girl like
myself can imagine.
I was going on the war path and must
put on my war pa nt, L e., pretty
clothes. I hadn't a great deal of money
and that went for material; the making
was to be done at home. Fort fled with
fashion plates innumerable, mother,
sisters, friends and myself, began a
month's siege of cutting, basting, trying
on, etc., till when the day came for my
departure, with my well filled Saratoga,
I was worn to a shadow of my former
self. But there was consolation in the
contents of the trunk, which were to
array me with splendor that neither
Solomon In all his glory, nor the lilies
of the field, could approach.
The long ride over the plains was
notbing, so filled were my thoughts
with pictures of my new life, picknick-
ing in the canyons by day, with a gal
lant Lieutenant by my side, and danc
ing or flirting to my heart's content
with the same or another Lieutenant at
night, with a medley of Ind:ans and
cowboys thrown In. I confess my most
anxious consideration was which of the
many pretty gowns should I don first to
make the deepest impression. Two of
equal beauty lay conveniently near the
top of the trunk to be decided on at a
moment's notice.
Well, I arrived and saw the Indians.
the cowboys, the canyons, the brass
buttons and other wonders, and was
duly amused and awed by them. But
It remained for an Indian squaw to give
me my greatest surprise.
One day as I was wandering about the
grounds I saw a squaw, wearing an ex
ceedingly ragged and dirty calico dress.

minutes she emerged from the store
carrying a roll of gaudy calico in ber
band. Seating herself upon the steps.
she produced from some region about
her person, a needle, thread and a pair
of rusty scissors. With these she pro
ceeded to manufacture a dress, and in
an amazingly short time it was finished.
Then with a dexterous flirt, in full view
of the disregarded spectators, she
lipped it over her head, and after some
mysterious sleight of hand inside of it,
be arose, dropping and leaving the old
garment on the ground as a snake dis

Fully equipped with clothes for at

THE ART
OF MENDING.
Ever Ctrl fh jo:d
Aeqnlre
It as Early as
1-oaalbte.
There is nothing more important in
the instruction of the children of the
household than systematic lessons in
mending. As soon as a little girl Is
able to handle a needle she should be
taught to darn her stockings and sew
on shoe buttons. As soon as she has
mastered these arts, she should be
taught how to lay patches; not in a hap
hazard fashion, but neatly and flatly,
matching the pattern of the goods and
laying the patch the proper way of the
cloth. A patch, put on properly and
pressed after it is put on, can hardly be
recognized as a patch. .The darning of
cloth is an art by itself which even ex
pert seamstresses do not always under
itand. The edges of the rent should be
brought together, and the needle run
through the cloth between the inside
and the outside in such a way as to con
eeal the stitches. When the darn is
dampened and pressed, it becomes al
most inv.sible, and can only be found
after the closest inspection. It will be
a long time before a little girl can do
such neat work as this, but she should
be encouraged in every way to try.
Lessons In mending should be g ven as
a stimulus to economy as well as good
needle-work. A girl who has been prop
erly brought up, and is compelled to do
her own mending, wl:l be more careful
of her clothes than one who is at no
pains to mend rents. For this reason if
It is considerable more trouble to over
see mending than to do it yourself the
child should do it, not only for the sake
of the instruction, but in order that she
may suffer from her carelessness if the
rent Is the result of carelessness.
An important part of all mending is
the ripping and preparing the work for
mending. If tbe garment needs re-
lining it is often desirable to make it
over entirely, in which case it should be
ripped thoroughly. Tbe thread should
be brushed off and the garment cleaned.
There are many ways of cleaning ma
terials that can not be washed. Deli
cate silk ribbons and other silk may be
sponged with a little alcohol diluted
with water. Stains caused by taids may
usually be taken out by a weak solution
of ammonia and water. oolen goods.
that are too much faded t be made
over, may often be dyed and combined
w.th a little new silk and may give as
much wear as they did before. There Is
always special sat sfactlon in making
over a new dress that had seemed to be
past its usefulness and in finding it able
to serve again and perhaps look better
than it did when it was new. The se
cret of the proverbially economical and
well-dressed French-woman s success
lies not only in her taste, but in her
Ingenuity in making over and repairing
her clothes. However old her dress it
Is mended so neatly that it never ap
pears shabby. The most careful and
economical women are usually tbe best
dressed, because they know how to take
care of their clothes, while women who
spend money lavishly on their attire are
often slovenly to the end. N. x.

A Glimpse of Walter Damrosch.
Mr.- Walter Damrosch undoubtedly
stands near the head of American con
ductors; if not in experience, at nil
events in musical culture. He is 28
years old, rather slight, but with well
squared shoulders and straight as an
arrow. He has none of the foppery of
long hair and outre dress that lesser
musicians affect. A keen faced, intel
lectual American, with deep set hazel
eyes and One manners that is Mr.
Dam rose h. remaps his manner is
hardly American. There is a hint of
European suavity in it that is not na
tive to a young and bustling country.
This comes naturally enough. Mr.
Damrosch was born in Breslau. When
9 years old, however, he went to New
York, and New York has since been his
home. Chicago Tribune.
