In the home the matter of serving tea for the family group or the casual caller is a simple hospitality easy to adopt. With a tea kettle and an alco­ hol lamp the beverage may be brewei in a few moments. Lemon, sliced, and loaf sugar are the general accompani­ ments, and only wafers that may be bought need be added. It is considered better form nowadays not to serve hearty or "rnussy" dainties for callers wearing gloves,. The daintiness of appointments is essential. A large mahogany or wicker tray, in lieu of a silver one, holds the service, which is brought into the room at the time of serving. Small stands with two or three shelves for holding as many plates of crackers or bonbons are a convenience for serving. It is also good form to,use small linen or damask napkins smaller than are used for luncheon or breakfast. These may be hemstitched or scalloped and are i|i the best style when ornamented with * small embroidered initial. PAY ATTENTION TO THE HAIR if Neglected, It Will Take Many Months to Restore lie to Proper Degree of Beauty. _ [ A great many men, and not a tow women, neglect their hair shamefully until a diseased condition, such as dandruff, falling hair or an excess of oil, calls their attention to the fact that the scalp 1b in urgent need of care. Then, after a week or two of scalp massage or the rubbing in of a prescribed tonic, they expect the hair which has been neglected for years to regain ail its original glory. This, of course, cannot be done. The damage done by years of neglect cannot be wiped out in a few weeks' time. It will probably be at least a few months before permanent im­ provement can take place. The thing to do is to take uure of your hair before it la too late. Start now. Brush the hair thoroughly each night, to remove the dust acquired during the day, and after that take another brush and stroke it briskly from the drown of the head to the end of the strand, to start the circulation* At least a hundred strokes should be given each night. This will give the hair a gloss and nothing else. Massage Is excellent for starting the circulation^ Purchase some reliable tonic, rub uiis into the scalp, not the hair, always rubbing with a circular motion from the edge of the scalp to the center of the head. After the en­ tire scalp , has been gone over place the elbows on a table, with the fingers on the scalp Just over the ears. Rub deeply in a circular motion toward the crown of the head. Continue this movement all over the head. All this will take only about a half hour's time, and it is time well spent for one who cares for her beanty. • TRIMMING OF RIBBON LOOPS Effective When Worn by the Youngr ' fa Be A voided, ty filth.

The modish if somewhat bizarre trimming of elongated ribbon loops, one instance of* which appears here, is considered by many to be a style which be- longs pre-emi­ nently to youth and should not be attempted by sthe woman who has left it behind her. The smart hat above has a brim of fine black hemp rolling quite close to the crown, which is bidden beneath Bhirred gray and white shaded ribbon gathered to the apex of the tall crown, where it is appar­ ently continued in the form of two stiffly wired ears. A narrow wreath of tiny pink flowers and fine foliage encircles the base of the crown. The very newest style in ornaments for- evening slippers is a single strap made of a fold of satin across the in­ step and fastened on the outer side un­ der a diamond cresoent This looks especially well worn with black satin slippers.

No One Subject ̂ of Greater flu- teres! to Farmer. l{ : • » j , * V ' <M* Reason w* General Awtekentng ls That Land Haa Inoraaaed In Value ^llfrfcad Extent--Uniform;- , Much Vaiva, (fey A. t>, SHAMBL.) There is no one subject related to farming of greater interest and im­ portance to the farmer thBTI the im­ provement a £ his general crops by seed selection and breeding. The study of these plants from the breed­ ing standpoint is not only Intensely interesting but It also usually results in awakening a keener interest in all phases of crop production, from the preparation of the soil for the seed­ bed and the cultivation of the growing plants to the marketing of the prod­ ucts. This subject is of vital impor­ tance, commercially, from the fact that it usually costs no more to grow improved varieties of farm crops than unimproved sorts, while the increase Ten Ears of Corn From the Same Field. 8howlng Great Variability In Type Resulting From Failure to Se­ lect Seed Property. Ill production due to the aae of im­ proved seed results 1 in additional profit During Che paat 10 or IS years there has been a great awakening of Inter­ est in the subject of seed selection and breeding as applied to our great gen­ eral farm crops, especially corn, cot­ ton, tobacco, wheat, oats and other crops of wide distribution and cultiva­ tion. One reason for this"awakening is that the land on which these crops are grown has Increased in value to a •ory marked extent and it is neces­ sary to increase the production per acre and improve the quality of the crops in order to make farming profit­ able. In high priced land it is neces­ sary to grow more productive crops than formerly if one is to make a rea­ sonable profit on the present invest­ ment Another reason for the awakened interest in seeed selection and breed­ ing lies in the fact that in the sec­ tions where crops have been grown for a considerable time the varieties produced on these lands year after year, where no seed selection or breeding has been practiced, have tended to run out and become un- profitabtfe. In addition to the running out of varieties under conditions of Ten Ears of Corn From the Same Field, Illustrating the Uniformity in All Desirable Characters Attain­ ed by Careful 8eed Selection. continuous propagation without breed­ ing, fungeous diseases and insect ene* mles, frequently develop to such an extent that, unless resistant or im­ mune varieties are secured by seed selection and breeding, the growing of these crops is either carried on with small return to the growers or haa to be abandoned. The most important field for the breeder's work is in the improvement of the established varieties of crops by the production of strains approxi­ mating more uniformity to the best types of these varieties. This lack of uniformity in high productive capacity- is responsible in great measure for thej present low average yield of most of our crops. . In the case of corn, this variability of plants is particularly striking. A large majority of the plants produce ears of small size, irregular in shape, and light weight, which are undesir­ able. Many of the stalks are barren. Only a small proportion of the plants produce the maximum size and weight pf ear. If every kernel produced a uniform plant and the plants bore uni­ form ears weighing one pound each, the average yield per acre would be about 10,668 poundB, or about .155 bush­ els of shelled corn per acre. The fact that theraverage yield throughout the corn belt is less than 40 bushels per acre is striking evidence that only a small proportion of the plants bear ears of the maximum weight One of Beat Emergency Crops Grown WJJI Give Practically aa Good . y/:> 'Reoulta to Alfalfa. ; T&§ glower of rage should instat oft getting the Dwarf Baaex, as this la tbe only variety that ia suitable $r hog pasture. There is a summer or bird seed rape found on the market whioh makes a worthless pasture and should not be used. It is possible that ^hie has been the cause of this man's troubles, writes Turner Wright in the i^armers Mail and Breese. I have used rape for several years as pasture for both breeding and rat- ' hncrfl twvy«v» CZpCriCTlCC& any difficulty in getting them to eat it if hogs that are not accustomed to rape are given no other green feed for a few days they will soon learn to eat and relish it even though they are fed a liberal amount of grain. It often happens that hogs, after learning to eat rape, prefer it to clover or alfalfa that is coarse and woody. I have often changed hogs from alfalfa to rape and from rape to alfalfa and oould see no difference in the way they seemed to relish these different feeds. If the hogs are turned on the rape when it is from 10 to 12 inches high they will eat It more readily than if it is more mature. Rape is one of the beat emergency forage crops we have. A good rape pasture will give practically as good results as alfalfa. It can be sown in feed yard8 and iota that; are used through the winter and thue not only furnish a pasture to take the place of a shortage of alfalfa or clover pas­ ture but also provide a means of utilising ground that would otherwise grow a crop o£ unsightly and, worth- less weeds.' JL ;v!» SHOULD WORK ROADS OFTEN Highways Need Constant Care to Give Satisfaction--Use Split-tog Drag After Each Rain. There wejre many faulta in the old system of road repairing, when every citizen had to work out his highway tax, and now that it is all under state control, with a cash system, perhaps there is little better service given, ev­ erything considered, writes a New York man in the Farm and Home. It has been the practice and is yet, to a great extent on a majority of the roads, to work them some in the spring and then let them alone until the next spring. This method will never give ua very satisfactory highways. They need con­ stant care the same as do railways-- here a little and there a little. Keep the water and ioose Btones out and the larger part of the year we would have very good roads. Some system needs to be organized whereby the split-log road drag can be used after almost every rain. I have used one enough to know that if used and followed up as it should be, our highways could be kept in a great deal better condition than they are now, at no greater expense. Every fanner should be allotted a certain portion of road to drag and he should receive pay for doing it. This would be a much better use to put the money to than is done with a lot of it now.

Frequently Destroyed faring Spontaneous Combustion'of '* , • -Their Cannes--Thrilling Ac ? . counta of Fires at Sea- ' It would aeem aimoat impossible to •et Are to and burn to the water's edge a big modern ship, built as such vessels almost invariably are now, of steel or iron with bxilk* heads of the same metal. Experience, however, haa shown otherwise, for the catastrophe that happened to the Volturno a short time ago is not by any means a solitary example of its kind. It is extraordinary, too, how little a thing will start the biggest and most devasting of the ocean fires. Thus the carelessness of a member of the crew, who dropped a lighted oitlamp on the forecastle roof, was responsible for the burning in midecean o£ the big emigrant ship Cospatrick on No­ vember 18, 1874, when no fewer than 465 lives were lost. The fate of these poor people was exactly what would have been that of those on board the Volturno If wire- leas telegraph had not been indented. They fought the flames with the frensy of despair until overpowered, then they perished. A few--about five or six--got away - in a boat, and were picked up ten days later half dead from starvation and exposure. These were the sole survivors. . One of the most thrilling stories of fires at sea, the burning of the Sa­ rah Sands, had a similar origin--the careless handling of a naked light in a l&caretto filed with government stores. She had 300 soldiers on board, and these worked like heroes remov­ ing and throwing overboard the gun­ powder, of which there waa a large quantity stored in the hold. One barrel did explode, blowing up* the entire port quarter of the ship.. Nevertheless, after weeks of dreadful anxiety, the still smouldering hulk was navigated safely to the Mauritius, without losing a single life. Ships are frequently fired owing to the spontaneous combustion of their cargoes. A striking example was af­ forded by the case of the Misronesia, bound from South America for Ant­ werp, with nitrate In bags. The flames burned every scrap of woodwork in the skin of the vessel, causing the ni­ trate to became fused, owing to the terrific heat, so that from a soft and powdery substance It was transformed into a species of liquor cement, which ran down into the lower hold and held together the plates that had previous­ ly started, thereby preventing her from sinking. She waa picked up event­ ually--a red-hot hulk--by a tug and beached at Deal. Her passengers and crew escaped in the boats. Oil in barrels is fearfully dangeroua. A few years ago a big Iron ship, the Blengfell, of Liverpool, was proceed­ ing up channel with the pilot on board when she suddenly burst into flames from some unexplained cause, and,every soul on her perished. No trace of the bodies was ever found, nor could any craft approach any­ where near the blazing vessel owing to the Intense heat, while the stenoh of the burning oil waB said to have been well-nigh intolerable. Cotton, too, is responsible for many fires at sea. It gets heated, smoulders for days, or for weeks sometimes, and then bursts into flame. After this fashion the Inman liner City of Mon­ treal was burned in midocean while on her way from New York to Liverpool in August 1887; and on Chrlstmaa eve in the year 1890 the China Navi­ gation company's steamer Shanghai took fire after a like manner, when 300 lives were lost One of New York'a "wharf rata' (homeless lads who hang about the wharves and piers and live by petty pilfering) was responsible for the dreadful fire which broke out among the shipping at Hoboken In the sum­ mer of 1900, when half a dozen great liners were burned, with over 200 of their officers and crews. The burning of the excursion steamer, General Slo- cum, of New York, in June, 1904, when 1,000 lives were lost was due to the careless handling of a lump of greasy cotton waste. tightly in a direct fine with hinges, then hook in rod, tighten top and the door cannot sag. .. , Hillside Crops. v,;.' Records of crops will show fhiif th# trees grown on the hillsides or at the top of elevations have a greater per­ centage of crop years than thoee in the hollow. This condition is primarily due to the air drainage or to Miffer- ence of temperature between the low ground and that a few feet higher up. Experiments have shown that on still, frosty nights there has been a differ­ ence of 15 degrees in as many feet between the bottom pf a ravine or hollow and the top nearby. THREE ESSENTIALS FOR COW Pure Water and Air and Reasonable Amount of Exercise Are Needed for Proper Development , '(By Lu M. BENNINGTON.) Some of the leading dairy authori­ ties may argue as they may, but many good dairym«n believe that the time Is past when a man with an ordinary degree of intelligence should advocate the practice of putting the cows in the stable in the fall and comp«& them to remain there until spring. This practice may not prove detri­ mental to the individuals during the 'one generation that is 90 manged, but how about the succeeding generation and their progeny? Will they not be weakened? ' The very first law of animal health is pure water and pure air and a rea­ sonable amount of exercise, and no! animal can be property developed In all of its organs and functions unless it Is provided wttb thaw three w eantials. • The Compost Heap.

( Contracts have just been ttade by the war department for a^out $2,000,- 000 worth of shoes for Uncle Sam's soldiers. Nearly 600,000 pairs of shoes are required, and the contracts have been divided among five firms at an average price of $3 a pair. These are the first contracts to be placed for the special shoes designed by the army board of experts, of which Ma­ jor Edward L*. Munson of the medical corps was chairman. The military authorities claim that the new regu­ lation army shoes meet all the re­ quirements of the service to a greater degree than any ehoe avfr used in this country or abroad. ̂ ̂ The Goepel of Pruning. . - A man ought not only to prune kf» fruit trees for profit, but he ought to prune his shade trees for the pride lM takes in his fapBR and tn the land acape. ^Anelefit Ailment ifrhTle ' spending the summer aT Block Island, R.

Sheffer of Memphis, Tenn., a call to become their pastor, and after considering all sides of the question he decided to accept the call, relates the Christian Herald. So he con­ vened his official board, placed before them his resignation and aeked to be released. His board being made up of tactful business men, and know­ ing that their pastor had tried for years to build a new church, request­ ed him to hold the resignation in abeyance' for a week, which he did. Then the board got busy, bought a new Bite for a church and paid $27,000 for it and reported to the church the following Sunday that they would build a new church on it at once if their pastor would consent to remain with them. He wanted another week, . and then said to his church: "I will stay with you if you will subscribe $45,000 for the new church at once." They took him at his word, and at that service subscribed $64,000 for the new building. It goes without saying that his church is very happy oyer his decision to stay with them. *: The opportunity of homesteads of If » the low priced lands of Saskatchewan and Albert* soon have passed.
