In the management of the modern

the cows with conditiona most con-
ducive to a large and economical pro-
duction of milk and butterfat In each
Individual case. Each cow should re-

found s good working rule to feed
Milk If especially likely to bo bit-
ter in the spring, but this trouble
may appear at any time. It ti almost
sure to result from (1) eating the last
remaining weeds In closely graied
pastures, (2) bad health of the cow,
or (3) the growth of bacteria in the
milk. The cure In esch esse consists
ia finding and removing the cause and
suggestions for doing so are msds
by Percy Werner, Jr., of the Missouri
college of sgrlculture.
If the milk becomes bittsr after
standing, it is not the cow's fault, but
results from the growth of bacteria
brought in by psrtlcles of dirt or ma-
nure or left in improperly cleaned ves-
sels. If the milk of sU cows in the
herd is bitter when drawn, the feed is
probably st fault, and the bitter tasts
will probably disappear if the cows
are kept in a lot where they csnnot
get st weeds. This will give the pas-
tures a better chance to get a good
start If only one or a few of the
cows give bitter milk, it is probably
because they srs in bad health or go-
ing dry, snd their milk should be kept
sway from the rest so that it will not
spoil the whole milking.

The Inrush of silk net ln s new pst-
iern has caused an Immense amount of
patln to be ordered by the dressmak-
ers to be used as a foundation snd
probably ss a bodice. The majority
hss not realized that net gowns ought
to be ultrafashionable for the late
spring and summer. The new net is
coarser than what we have been wear-
ing, and it has a broken surface^ It
has a square or round mesh, a polks
dot large or small, a thin, trailing
vine design or a stripe. Possibly, all
these new nets could be classed un-
der the head of point d'esprlt.
One of the best known designs is
called a Reboux net, and other weaves
are so coarse that at first glance they
would not appear suitable for eve-
ning frocks. Yet if one does not like
them for formal gowns, they are ad-
mirable for afternoon frocks, over the
thinnest silk lining.
A quarter of s century ago, these
nets ln black and white were the
choice for afternoon frocks with slight-
ly low necks and elbow sleeves; and
ss far ss one can see, the wheel will
turn back 25 years and these gowns
will sgaln be In fashion.
One of the latest of the afternoon
frocks, ln blue snd white striped silk,
shown ln the illustration, hss won
many friends among easmrn women of

RACK FOR THE NEWSPAPERS

Be Put Together In s Few
Minutes' Tims.
A rack for holding newspapers and
magazines is a thing that is required
in every household, and we give a
sketch of a simple snd practical rack
that anyone with a box of tools can
make ln a very short time.
It should be constructed about S
feet 8 inches ln height and 2 feet in
width, snd be made of wood about
%-inch in thickness snd 12 inches
in width. It is composed of two
pieces of the shape shown on the right
of the illustration and two plain pieces
of wood cut to fit into the upper part
of these boards. The whole thing Is
fastened together with screws run
through Jhe upper boards and into the
upper edges of the side pieces.
Well-planed wood should be used,
and when complete it can be stained a
nice dark green and afterward well
varnished.
It can, of course, be made in a larger
or smaller size than that mentioned

JUDGMENT IN SHAPING TREES SUCCESS IN GROWING CLOVER
Care 8hould Be Exercised Not to Cut
Awsy Any Portion Which Msy

In shaping the trees, the orchardist
must use his own Judgment largely.
Where the trees are very small care
should be exercised not to cut away
any portion of the tree which may af-
fect its appearance in the future. Be-
ginners should not start on young or
Small trees, for mistakes on them are
always costly.
If you observe a serious fork ln the
young tree. It should be remedied at
once by cutting away the one which
vou think will not make the best pro-
ducer. If such a defect Is remedied

The principles of successful clover
growing may be summarized as fol-
lows:
Give the clover a chance to make s
healthy plant by adding lime, phos-
phorus and potash to soils thst need
them. In some way add vegetable
matter to the soil and keep up the sup-
ply by turning under clover often
enough.
Give the seed a fair chance by plac-
ing it in mellow soil and covering it
from one-half to one Inch deep.
If sown with s nurse crop, give
the young plants a chance by not seed-
ing the grain crop too thickly, by top-
dressing with manure if practicable,
and by cutting the stubble ss bigh ss
possible.
