Also apples, potatoes, vegetables, corn, wheat, barley, etc., can be shown in a photograph after some practice so that those who are making inquiries can be satisfied as to the quality, and many additional sales will result fromr the pWoto- graphs used for this purpose. _ Photography is particularly strong as a sales maker in helping to shew; type, conformation, coloring, and vig- or in pure-bred stock.

After he has on his shirt and diaper, weigh him, if you liave scales. 7¢ 'is worth -whila to afford these if you can possibly do. so, for a baby's er or not his food is nourishing him, It is impossible to judge whether he is gaining by lifting him in your arms. Scales cost about $7. During the first three days of his life a baby loses about ten ounces. This is as it should be; his body throws off certain waste materials. By the tenth day he should have re- covered the weight he had at birth-- which averages about eight pounds for boys and seven pounds for girls, Aftor this the breast-fed baby should gain about an ounce a day for the first three months and at least four ounces a week for the rest of the year, When a baby must be weaned to the bottle his weight usually remains stationary. for a-week or ten days, 'and if '4hY effort is made to strength- en the food so as to fatten him a serious' digestive upset is likely to Never take your baby to sleep im bed with you.

This ¥oom should have been bathed and purified by the sun through the day, and it will be drier and more healthful if it is qn the second floor: * How to Give His Daily Bath Perhaps you are asking if nothing is necessary to an infant except cor-- rect feeding and sleep in fresh air. Yes; one more thing is very neces- sary, and that is cleanliness. His body must be clean from 'scalp to, toe, and everything which he touches and everything which touches him must: be clean, He sould have a bath every morn ing ore his nine o'clock feeding. HThe 'temperature of the room should be about 72 degrees,-and that of the 'water between 95 and 98 degrees, un- til he is six months old, when it may be reduced to 90 degrees. A' bath thermometer can be bought for a quarter, and is a worth-while pur- chase. The bath may be given in the re- a by a rubber sheet covered with a folded cloth. There must be . no; occur, Artificial food must be very weak until the baby's stomach be- comes accustomed to it. At six months of age, if the right formula has been found for his milk, he will have almost caught up 'with the breast-fed baby, and will weigh about nine pounds more than essary it is to 'make a daily, least a weekly, weighing a part of the routine at bath time, borax water, absorbent cotton, and a mateh. Theseiare used the ears, the corners of the eyes, and the mouth. Wet the end of the stick. and twist a small piece absorbent cotton on it. = The twist should be very tight and firm, but a loose wad' should be left free of the stick at the end. This is wet in. the borax water and used very gently to remove dirt from the nostrils and from the creases of the cars, and to cleanse the tongue and gums. Use a fresh piece of cotton for each op- eration. A piece of cotton thorough- ly wet. 80 as not to allow the escape of the fine fuzz may be used to re- move sleep from the corners of the eyes. Do not attach this to the stick. Too often it is taken for granted that babies have to be more or less dirty. It ought to be taken for granted that they must be . clean. gular bathtub, if you have one, other- wise a tin or enamel tub can be set upon a table and used conveniently. A wood tub should be avoided, as it absorbs the dirty water from day to day. : In order te save the baby from ex- posure be sure that you gather to- gether where you can reach them all the things that are required for the bath and the dressing which follows. There must be a warm blanket in which to wrap the wet body when you take it from the tub, two soft towels, a wash cloth, a cake of castile soap, 'and some talcum powder, or pow- dered starch or rice, - , you will need a glassful of warm water in i { 'spoonful of borax, a small-wad of absorbent cotton, and & smooth stick, occupied by the daily bath and the washing and airing of garments is paid back to the mother by the health and: contentment of the child.

Repeated "drying out" leaves them in a condition which causes the infant's skin to chafe.
