For afternoon or informal tea, a stand is most essential, and though they are expensive articles to buy, they can easily be made at home at a very nominal cost. Very few mater­ ials %ill be required, just three bam­ boo sticks of equal length or three round-like sticks of white wood, and three round Japanese trays of equal size. Instead of the trays, three wooden round Sox lids would do. They 'lair samples of turbans which one '•lay see developed in all-white crape, all black or in black and white com­ bined In varying proportions. Besides white, pale gray and blue- lavender tones promise to add furth­ er variety to our mourning headwear. These colors are shown in the new ^English crapes and have been taken *P by Nqw York designers, to whom , Biust be conceded the distinction of Biaklqg the most beautiful of mount­ ing hat Itoen Paris is second to them. must be the same size. Japanese trays can be bought so cheaply, and they are so prettily got up that no further decoration Is necessary, but if box lids are used, they will require to be stained or pokered; this latter Is an excellent method of decorating if the worker happens to possess a poker machine. Otherwise, the lids can easily be stained any color de­ sired, and afterwards varnished with white hard spirit varnish. To make the stand, three rods about 30 inches' in length are needed, bore holes in these with a hotv skewer, four inches from the top, five inches from the bottom, and {mother exactly half way between the two; the holes must go right through, and must be exactly in the same position on each rod, or the stand will not be level. Make three holes in each tray in the same way *o that, they will exactly correspond with the holes in the rods. The trays are then fastened to the rods with strong copper wire. If this is done neatly it will hardly show; if it does, it may be concealed by ros­ ettes of ribbon. A stand of this kind is most usefuj and strong; it is ex­ cellent for use for tea out of doors, when one might hesitate in taking out an expensive stand; in fact, would be found a most useful addition to any household, and the amount of decora­ tion spent uponJt. will, of course, de­ pend upon,jpfiere it ii*\ to be used, and the coloring of it upon the color scheme of its surroundings. - SEED SELECTED EARLY Farmer May Be Reasonably Sure of Corn Stand Next Yeal 1 Consideration of Strength and Oiaf- acMr of Corn Stalk, Height of,.

BULL*) > Ow of the main reasons -why seed corn should be selected early is to be reasonably sure It wiii grow the fol­ lowing year when planted. Early se­ lected seed corn is the corn that usu­ ally gives the' best stand. Without a good stand it is impossible to get a maximum yield, and it costs no more to raise a field of corn with a perfect stand than it does to raise a field with a 60 to 70 per cent, stand.

Rugs for the Nursery. Grass fiber rugs, with borders of stenciled animals, done in soft red, yellow, brown and green, which show attractively against the light gray- green of the fiber, are sold for nur­ sery mats or for rugs for children's rooms. They are so light, so easily cleaned and so durable that they are ideal for use in a room where children live. MAKE LAWN A BEAUTY SPOT [TASTY COMBINATION IS THIS Now the Time to Give It Attention That It May Flourish Next Year. If your lawn is larger than 7<ML can cere for properly, plan to have it of suitable size next year, by filling in with hardy, thrifty growers that will take care of themselves. Don't neglect to drop a few seeds of perennials in the bare plaoes this month for bloomers next year. Seed­ lings cost but little, while plants are expensive. Many beautiful things can be raised from a mixed seed package of perennials. Now is a good time to plan changes la the border and the flower garden, as -me can see the mistakes made in planting the tall growers in front of the low cjnes; In grouping illrmatched plants and mixing inharmonious com­ binations of colors. Keep a note book and pencil in hand. In arranging the home lot, whether (or fruit, shade or ornament, plant tile tallest growers well to the rear, grading down to the lowest, or creep­ ing things, letting the rows run east to west, that all may have the sun­ shine. They can thus be seen to the best advantage, and prove a joy to the beholder. Kerchief Seent. To perfume handkerchiefs break up a quarter of an ounce of orris root and tie up in a piece of muslin. Boil with the handkerchiefs for a quarter of an hour, using about three pints of water to a quarter ounce of orris root When dry iron carefully and you will find your handkerchiefs will { retain a delicate violet odor.

Of course, the fullness Is between the waiBtiine and hip only, for below the hips the garment must cling closely to the figure. Novel Scent Bag. A novel heart-shaped Bcent bag is made of sheer white silk marquisette and is filled with dried roses and addi­ tionally perfumed with the natural odor of the flowers. The same idea may be effectively carried out in vio­ lets or in lavender. The rose and vio­ let are particularly good for perfuming the contents of bureau drawers, ward­ robes, trunks, ctc., imparting the deli­ cate fragrance of the natural flower to the gown,/waist or lingerie. The lav­ ender bags are appropriate for perfum­ ing the linen closet or chest. The dried flowers in their natural colorings are visible through the marquisette re tut, making them very attractive. conditions. Seed corn that is not thoroughly dry before cold weather, will in the northern climates, freeze, which will cause the kernel to expand, thus injuring the germ or little plant, lowering its vitality and often destroy­ ing it, so the kernel will not germi­ nate. Few farmers save enough seed corn. One bushel of shelled corn will plant from seven to eight acres. One hun dred to one hundred and twenty se­ lected eajrs \yill make a' bushel of shelled corn. At this rate it will take from twelve to fifteen ears to plant one acre., It should be remembered, however, that the first selection is not always perfect; and oftentimes upon second selection and germina­ tion test, half of the first selection will be thrown out. Thus It is seen that there should always be selected in the fall at least twice as much seed as the farmer expects to plant. There is little danger of getting too much seed corn. Any surplus, if the seed is good, can usually be sold at a fair price. In case one has no "special seed plot" in which his best and earliest maturing ears were planted, it is then necessary that his seed be selected from the field. The most practical method to do this is to go through the field with a sack tied across one's shoulder and select the choicest and best matured ears. Two rows of corn may easily be examined at once. Dur­ ing the process of selection, consider­ ation of the strength and character of the stalk, the height of the ear from the ground, and the size of the ahank, should be noted. A stalk does not necessarily have to be large to be a big producer. A tall spindling plant lodges very eas­ ily. The stalk should be of good size and strong at the base, gradually tap­ ering, and not necessarily tall. Strong, vigorous stalks of medium height, usually produce the best and earliest matured ears. The ear should be at­ tached to the stalk by a medium-sized shank, which is long enough to allow the tip of the ear to hang down. All ears in a cornfield will not ma­ ture at the same time. A variation of fifteen days in maturing of ears in a field is not uncommon. One of the reasons why a good selection of corn cannot be made from the shock or from the field late in the fall, is that one is unable to tell the time the ear matured. HIT HIGHEST MARKET PRICE Easier Done With Grain Crops Than With Livestock--Animals Must Go When They Are Ready. It is much easier, generally speak­ ing, to hit the highest market price with grain crops than it is with live­ stock. There are various powerful interests that aim at certain seasons of the year to depreciate the prices of m$at products and grain. The grain farmer is less at their mercy than the stock farmer, because he can, as a rule, hold his grain for a few months until the market suits him. The stockman cannot do this with his cattle, sheep and swine to anything like the same extent. Cat­ tle, sheep and swine must go when they are ready for market. It is the best thing a farmer can do to sell when they are ready, that is, when they have reached a weight at which he cannot add more weight at a profit. The only advice that it is safe to give on this point is to avoid being a market chaser, and to sell fattened stock when it is fit to ship. There is a large expense connected with holding fat stock and in many in­ stances the market goes the wrong way. Every farmer knows that with corn at, say 50 cents, he is assuming the role of a speculator by holding a bunch for a higher market, after most of the food of support and the food of gain becomes a diminishing quan­ tity, diminished to such an extent^ that he cannot make a profitable Increase on his stock. Lisr TOTE IAY OF THE OLD SALTS ToB of Many Strange Happen- tags on Amazon River. ' THROUGH SEA OF RED REJUVENATE AN OLD ORCHARD Increase in Size and Color of Fruit Is Very Largely Due to Judicious Use of Prune Saw. (By 8. VAN SMITH, Colorado Agricul­ tural College.) Our attention is being called every day to the example of some farmer with an idea, who takes a pruning saw and goes into an old and unprofit­ able orchard and fiiakes it,pay attrac­ tive dividends. Proper cultivation and spraying are important factors in such a rejuvenation, but the increase in size and color of fruit Is very large­ ly due to judicious pruning. In old orchards which have been neglected the thing most noticeable Is the fact that the trea tops contain too much wood; too many limbs. Many of these are large limbs which shquld have been cut out years ago wheu they, were small and the shock to the tree would not have been so great, to say nothing of the saving of plant food used in the production of r. Alligator Attacks Ship; Mando­ lin Music Lures Whistling Monkey on Deck; Big Turtles Halt Vessel and Men Fight Vampire Bats. New Tork.--Pipe all hands on deck, mates, and listen to this gory tale of the sea. It is the tale of the little steamer Javary which recently arrived from a voyage of 2,600 miles down the Amazon river. Captain Alexander Alexander is mas­ ter of the Javary and many a trip he has made up and down the Amazon. The first mate is Q. N. Duff, the sec­ ond R. B. Furneaux, and the third, J. I.i. Williams. All are familiar with the waters of the Amazon, its mosquitoes, its alligators and its blood-sucking vampires. On the second day out, with just a whiff of breeze to temper the heat, the Javary was coming along slowly, as all ships do in those waters at the start. Mr. Duff--they call all officers "Mr." on all well regulated ships--was on deck. A huge alligator showed his ugly head abote the water near the river bank, then came with a rush on to the steamer. With a bang he hit the side of the ship, and the force of the shock bounced him back. Mr. Duff walked forward, looking over the side, and the alligator fol­ lowed him in the water. When they got to the bow the attacking party renewed the attack. A kedge anchor hung over the bow, for in those waters they have to be ready always to drop a hook or throw it into the bank to warp around a bend. The kedge is let go by withdrawing a steel pin from its fastening. Mr. Duff waited until the alligator was rushing head on at the how plates, then pulled the pin. With an awful bump the hook smash­ ed down upon the head of the most surprised alligator ever seen In the A ~aaxon. Third Mate Williams plays the man­ dolin. One evening, shortly after the alligator episode he was on deck, the vessel being at anchor under the overhanging foliage of the bank. As he played he heard a whistling ac­ companiment to his playing. He stopped, puzzled, and the whistling stopped, too. He played again and the whistling was resumed. It was eerie.

WHY THE FERTILIZERS FAIL Farmers 8eem to Forget That Physi­ cal Conditions Are ss Important as Plant Food Supply. HELPFUL TO BEE BEGINNERS One Method Which Cannot Fail to As- 1 eie^ Is to Give Delinquent Insects Good Shaking Up. (By MRS. R. F. JOSEPH.) A method I have Just learned that cai»Jot fall to help beginners In bee culture is to give the bees a good shaking when they become delinquent In their work. When you move them a short distance to prevent their go­ ing back ehake them in front of the entrance of their respective hives. The most vicious bees can be made very tame by shaking. I shake them off the comb into a large dishpan. When the pan is shaken about the same as you would shake a corn popper the bees roll over in a confased mass and after a minute of shaking, rolling and tumbling they can be picked i)p with the hands, providing, of course, that you do not hurt them.

" ff Many farmers expect entirely too much of commercial fertilizers, writes an instructor for the ,College of Agri­ culture, Ohio State university. They forget that the physical condition of the soil is often just as im­ portant as the supply of available plant food. The condition of the soil depends largely upon the amount of decaying organic matter it contains. By it clay soils are kept loose and well aerated, more easily drained and at the same time capable of holding more water in an available form. They have less tendency to surface washing, heaving and extremes of temperature when well supplied with organic matter. Sandy soils are made more compact, more retentive of moisture and plant food. In all soils the acids produced by the decay of organic matter are the chief agentB in getting into usable form the plant food locked up in their insoluble mineral particles. If dis­ appointing results attended the use of fertilizers, it is well for the farmer to ask himself if he has made suffi­ cient use of barnyard manure, heavy sods and green manuring crops in maintaining the supply of organic mat­ ter of the soil. Drainage of Wet Lands. For the management of wet landa the usual advice is to tile drain them, but an intelligent German farmer now living in this country suggests that it sometimes pays better to make arti­ ficial ponds- In Germany, he says, an acre of fish ponds is often reckoned worth more than an acre of wheat. The dams may be built with farm labor at small expense, and the ponds add considerably to the beauty of the scenery. Very often, also, the ponds can be used to some extent for irri­ gation, and Irrigation will work wor* derg.., , ; ̂ 1 1 1 i i BY NO MEANS ORIGINAL IDEAS Gossamer 8kirt and Cobweb Waist of Today Are Imitations of Those of Many Centuries Ago.
