THE REALM OF WOMAN.
Odds and End Ends of Timely and Varied
Interest.
Paper vests can be bought new in
place of Chamois skin. They cost a
quarter as much as the chzrmois. are
equally warm, and less bulky.
There is a hygenic way of dancing
as well as of doing other things. A
dancing teacher says that to make a
good dancer it is necessary to breathe
properly. No one will dance grace-
fully who does not throw out the
chest {and take long, deep breaths and
a long- step.
There is a wealthy, stylish. pretty
woman living at one of the big New
York residence hotels who has worn
a hoop almost ever since she can re-
member. She has them made for her
now, small ones, and no one would
imagine she wore "them, but they are
there just the same. She is u plump
woman, and her idea is that she is a
little more satisfactorily and modestly
dressed with the crinoline.
A woman physician says she believes
that the first {and most important, step
in education should be a knowledge
of fundamental physiological laws, on
ignorance and disregard ofwhich bring
about conditions of body which hindci
or prevent entirely a perfect perform-
ance of the duties of life or an enjoy-
ment of its pleasures. Rules for
health and self-preservation are given
out by workers in many lines of socio-
logical work among the poor. Such
physiology, the doctor believes, should
be taught thoroughly—~not.-.the number
of bones in the human body. but a
general_ knowledge of the laws Ly
which it is governed.
Hand—Rented Calves. ,
Successful to a marked degree in all '
my ventures in calf rearing, I- would
suggest that all calves be hand fed
from the very start. One reason is
the necessity ,of weaning calf and
mother from each other is thus avoid-
ed. This has been made one of the
cruelest of farm practices. No calf
need run a day with its mother or
ever be allowed to suck. It can be
tied beside the cow at night and kept
-within sight and sound of her through
the day. Thus treated both calf and
mother become weaned in a little time.
In a very short time the calf may be
turned into the pasture or lot with its
mother and the other cows without
giving any trouble about sucking.
My best cows, Jerseys and common
stock, have developed from hand-fed
calves. They were regularly given
milk that was sweet and warm. A
calf that is allowed to become hungry
and thirsty, and then alldwed to gorge.
becomes “podded” .and ill-shaped.
Three times a day is not too often to
give milk to a calf under three months
of age. Scalded chop-f0”? a reason-
able qu-anitity in each f~ ..f milk, is
desirable. The making or ruining of
a cow lies largely in the hands of 1191‘
owner. Blood .and breeding are the
main factors, to be sure, but the best
of thoroughbred blood, and the most
careful breeding of her ancestors, may
become of no .avail, if that calf be left
to come up, instead of being rightly
brought up. '
It is unwise togive much corn as
soon as she Will'eat it.’ Oats grounc‘
01' whole are always good for her.
Eggs if cheap and plenty may be very
advantageously added to the milk
once in awhile. She-responds by
showing you a glossy coat and a gen—
eral air of thriftiness. And of late, I
have used blood-meal, a ieaspoonful
at first and but once a day in a feed
of milk. This amount can be in-
creased to twice and three times that
amount, but give only once a day.
Practical experience of years proves
.to me that hand-reared calves are the
best and much the cheapest. They
must first be fed a proportion of new
milk and later on sweet skimmilk. and
a generous quantity of bone and mus-
cle producing foods—Nellie Hawks in
Agriculsturist.

Looping Cream in \f’intcr.
In small dairies where it takes a
long film to secure cream enough for
a churning. it often becomes old,
smells and tastes bad. but is not sour.
One of the best ways out of the difli‘
cultzr. with the conveniences usually
at hand. is to keep the cream in as
cool :1 place as. possible. not below
freezing. and 24 hours before (burn--
ing. plm-c the can in hot water. stir-
ring frequently until the temperature
of the cream reachcs 85 degrees. Then
put the can where it will keep warm.
Thc next morning it will ITO sour with
that velvety look which indicates that
it is of the proper acidity. ‘If not
warm enough to churn properly, put
it again in warm water and stir so
that it will warm evenly.
The Yellow Skin Fad.
In mating fowls for breeding stock,
from which to raise broilers and roos-
ters, each fowl should be
with care. If the flesh and skin are
not deep yellow. the fowl should be
rejected. First class trade in the New
England markets and to an immense
degree in the best trade of many west-
ern cities does not want White meated
poultry. The male bird is of ‘the first
importance. He- is half the flock.
Yellow meated poultry is a fad of the
markets in certain sections, and there
is no use in kicking against it so .long
as we can make money out of it.
Even a yellow-skinned breed will be
whitish if not fed right. Nothing but
yellow corn meal will make the yel-
lowest meat—W. H. Rudd, in Agri.
