A GRATEFUL OLD LADY. Mrs. A. G. Clemens, West Alexan- der, Pa., writes: I have used Dodd's Kidney Pills, also Diamond Dinner Pills. Before using them I had suf- fered for a number of years with backache, also tender spots on spine, and had at times black floating specks before my eyes. I also had lum- bago and heart trou- ble.

Skating, like all other outdoor sports, happily finds its number of devotees Increasing from year to year. The interest in the pastime for those who skate and to those who are sim- ply onlookers increases in proportion to the variety and fitness which is evi- denced in skating costumes. The skat- ing field makes a background for color which the sport -loving have not failed to appreciate, and the adoption of beautiful colors for skating clothes will make it as fascinating as the dancing floor. With these things in mind costum era present a number of sport•coats, sweaters, skating costumes, caps, muf- flers, and \headwraps\ to meet the re- quirements of those fortunate women who take to the ice. Opportunity to look her prettiest knocks at the door of every one of them. Head wraps, with muff to match, made of velvet and trimmed with fur, are among the most fetching of novel- ties. They are soft turbans, with their velvet drapery extended into a scarf or muffler. The scarf portion is lined with silk and usually tapers to a point which terminates in a tassel or a ball of fur or some other ornament that will serve to weight it a little. The muff to match is small and usually barrel shaped. Besides those of brilliant colors, all - white caps and mufflers and magpie sets, like those shown above, look well on the ice. They are good examples of current styles, and their usefulness does not begin and end with the skat- ing field. It covers all the outdoor recreations of the wintertime. They are of knitted yarns, and similar ones are made in an endless variety of color and color combinations. Pretty Luxuries of Dress for Gifts It is the privilege of women to wear all sorts of pretty accessories of dress, and there are all sorts of airy and al- luring fabrics that inspire them to make these luxuries of apparel. Laces and ribbons, nets and metallic gauzes, and other transparent materials are translated into neckwear, head' wear, and other finery that bespeaks the dainty woman. Interest in these things is more keen than ever when the holidays get near. Anything that promises an easily made and pretty gift is welcome. The breakfast, or boudoir cap, has more than prettiness to recommend it. It is a cheerful and most becoming bit of finery that any woman may own, and is always an acceptable gift, like a pretty pair of slippers. Besides the boudoir cap there are those for trav- eling and those that are worn at night, and the most essential cap of (lusting cap. This last one is made of washable cotton finished with a ruffle of the material. Travel- ing caps are made of washable silk or of dark colors not easily soiled. They are usually gathered over elas- tic cord or fulled on a ribbon run through a casing about the edge of the crown. The ends are drawn through a slash in the casing and tied in a bow. This allows the cap to be flattened out when it is pressed. The picture shows a group of three breakfast or boudoir caps. Two of them are of lace anti ono of net and lace combined. A wide net top lace forms the body of the first cap. The embroidered edge is turned back about the face and the straight edge is gathered into a narrow lace inser- tion. This insertion borders a circu- lar piece at the hack, forming the crown. The lace is extended Into a tab, which hangs under a bow of soft satin ribbon, at the back. The second cap is very simply con- structed of a hand of shadow lace edged with val, and a puffed crown of net with a frill of net across the back at the neck. The lace band is extend. ed into tabs and the net crown is plaited about the edge and sewed into the band. It is trimmed with little bows and flowers of narrow satin rib- bon. The third cap is of lace scalloped on both edges, such as Is made for corset covers. The scalloped edge about the face is turned back, and satin ribbon is threaded through the slashes woven in the lace. The full- ness at the back is gathered over an elastic cord. A Bit of Red. It peeps out of the pockets of a Scotch plaid frock and lines the cuffs and collar as well. It emphasizes in braid the very military closing of a blue serge frock and matches the shiny belt of red leather and the wrist straps of the same. A red flannel vest and much -wrinkled collar are to be seen in a very stunning blue gaber- dine suit. A turban of shirred red vel- vet lights up an otherwise somber costume. Altogether, for the woman who can stand it, the bit of red is in- dispensable for the dull colorings which fashion is forcing upon woman- kind this season. Freshening Ribbons. Ribbons and silks can usually be made to leek fresher if they are washed in soapy water, dried and Ironed. If they are desired stiff they should be ironed while wet. If they are to be soft they must first he dried, and any wrinkles which refuse to iron out without water can be moistened with a sponge wrung dry. Pockets Are Large. The craze for pockets does not seem likely to die ouL In fact, the newest models created by famous Paris dress makers exploit pockets which are large, unexpected, and numerous. WINTER FEEDING SEASON FOR DAIRY COW' , Cows Are Easily Cared for in Modern Barns. (By W. MILTON KELLY.) Oat straw is not generally recog- nized as a valuable food for dairy cows; yet if given in reasonable amounts every two or three days they will clean it up with a relish, whereas If given them exclusively as a roughage they will push it over the manger and become as thin as a string of shad. We have seen the weak, emaciated, straw•fed cow that had to be helped on her feet each morning in the early spring, and if grass growing was de- layed too long the only pay she could give for her winter's feed was her hide. Yet well-fed dairy cows relish a light feeding of bright oat straw after a big mess of corn silage every few days. Feed experts tell us it is too much work for the cows to get the nour- ishment that is in the straw, and the weak, emaciated condition of the straw -fed cows in the spring substan- tiates the claim; but that is not the whole story. Every observing feeder knows that, except in rare cases, the roughage grown on his farm is the cheapest part of the dairy cow's ration, and also that the dairy cow is especially built to handle large quantities of roughage. If the roughage part of a ration is made up largely of clover or alfalfa hay and ensilage, with a little oats and pea hay, corn stover and other roughage feeds, we may utilize rough- age to make up three -fourths of the dry matter of the ration, and the cows will come out In the best of condition the next spring, and we will secure the best profits in dollars. Heavy grain feeding may make a better showing on a milk sheet, but not in the net profits, except with those dairy farmers who live near by desirable markets, where they can sell their hay and dairy products for ex- tremely high prices. If the roughage Is tough and fibrous the proportion of concentrates must be larger. Just how much roughage a cow should be given at a feeding depends in a great measure upon her capacity to handle it profitably. About twenty ponnds of dry matter may be derived from a good variety of roughage, and from six to ten pounds of the concen- trates. With these proportions in mind, and with a table giving the digestible nu- trients of the various other materials used in feeding, it should not be ....Se, ...SAO,. FARM MACHINERY 'A VERY HARD PROBLEM Difficult Matter for Farmer to Determine How Much and What Kind Is Needed. A difficult problem on the American farm is to decide how much and what kind of machinery should be pur- chased. Some farms are so over- stocked with machinery that the de- preciation. interest and repairs eat up much of the profits. Assuming the average depreciation on machinery at 10 per cent, and the interest on the money invested at 6 per cent, we have an average yearly expense of approximately $13 on each POO invested in machinery. A man twho has $1,500 worth of machinery would have $195 expense on this alone in Interest and depreciation. If his work could be done with half this amount, he could save $97.50. This would be equivalent to the interest on $1,625 at 6 per cent. A farm of 80 acres cannot profita- bly use four -horse machinery because three horses should do the work on a farm of this size. In buying ma- chinery too large In proportion to the size of the farm unnecessary expense is added. This conies not only in the increased cost of machinery but also In the maintenance of any extra horses required. Practice of Burning Straw. The practice of burning straw is far too common on farms. Many farm- ers do not realize the true value of the straw stack. The fertilizing value of the straw from a ten -acre wheat - field is from $25 to $40. If the straw Is used as bedding and the manure used, this value of the straw is saved and in addition thus used will absorb a large amount of liquid manure that alight otherwise be wasted. troublesome to make up rations that will give good and profitable returns. The various feeding tables are valu- able, and we need them in making up suitable rations for our cows; but un- leap we study the individual needs of our cows and try to approximate them, we are sure to be disappointed in the results. A ration may be nearly perfect from a mathematical and sci- entific standpoint, but if it is not pal- atable the cows cannot give their best returns. The wide variety of commercial by- product dairy feeds on the market makes it very important that dairy farmers devote attention and study to making up palatable and healthy ra- tions. In all of our home-grown grain feeds the proportion of pure food nu- triments is associated with the crude fiber in such a way as to make them healthy and palatable for our animals. The manufacturer, on the other hand, removes more or less of one or more of these nutriments, which, therefore, leaves the proportion of the constitu- ents and the resultant feed decidedly unbalanced, and it must be fed care- fully and with other products, if safe or profitable returns are to be ob- tained. No man can formulate hard-and-fast rules to govern dairymen in determin- ing how much purchased grain they should feed. If he secures the best profits from his cows, he should raise nearly a balanced ration on his own farm. If his farm needs fertilizer he can usually Increase his crop yields by the feeding of purchased grain feeds. Of course fie is working at a losing game if he feeds the purchased or home-grown feed to poor cows. I have found in my dairy practice that by having plenty of corn silage, clover and alfalfa, and oats and peas, I have done as much as possible to supply my cows with a balanced ra- tion of home-grown foods. Many dairy experts tell us to grow various protefnaceous forage and fod- der crops, but my judgment is that it seldom pays a dairy farmer to grow other than a few of the standard feed crops for his cows. I have had very good success with soy beans, and find them an exceed- ingly valuable crop to grow on certain portions of my farm; but I would not give up growing clover, alfalfa and corn and take chances with a crop of soy beans. TIME FOR CULLING OF POULTRY FLOCK Old Hens That Have Ceased to • Be Productive Should Be Sent to City Markets. Now that the old hens have ceased to be productive the farmer should be- gin a systematic culling of his poul- try flock. All hens not to be held over for next year should be sold. While the cost of keeping hens is seldom realized, they are eating valuable food. This expense with no production is cutting down the profits. Hens are rarely profitable producers after they are two years old according to Ii. L. Kempster of the University of Mis- souri college of agriculture. All old hens, especially those which bag down or \crop\ behind, should be sent to the market. This year's young stock should be marked with leg bands, toe marks or otherwise BO that next year the age of the hen will be known. Hens in laying condition will have bright red combs and will show their pin bones well spread apart. This test is a sure indicatloa. The pin bones are located Just above the vent. If three or four inches apart the hen Is probably laying. These points will assist materially in culling out the un- profitable producers. Roosts and Nest Boxes. The proper height for roosts are about two feet from the ground. The dropping board platform should be about six inches below the roosts. It is better to have the nest boxes at an- other part of the pen, about a foot or two above ground. Placing then under the roosts gives hiding places for rats and mice back of the nests, and besides the fowls while scratch- ing throw considerable dirt in the nests when the latter are placed on the Boor. DOAN FOSTERMILIIURN WONDERFUL HOW QUICKLY RESINOL STOPS ITCHING To those who have endured for years the itching torments of eczema or other such skin -eruptions, the relief that the first use of resinol ointment and resiriol soap gives is perfectly incredi- ble.
