Judge Parry, in a recent article on
"Rufus Choate, Advocate," says on oc-
casion Choate would meet with his
Sam Weller. Defending a prisoner
for theft of money from a ship, a wit
tiess was called who had turned states'
evidence and who e testimony went to
prove that Choate's client had insti-
gated the theft.
"Well," asked Choate, "what did he
say ? Tell us how and what he spoke
to you."
"Why," said the witness, "ho told us
there was a man in Boston named
Choate and he'd get us off If they
caught us with the money in our
boots."

To be neat and to be simple Is the
province of the dross which is made to
be worn about the house for the daily
use of the housewife. The house dress
has Its own devotees among design-
ers, and their thought is spent upon
making It attractive and substantial
and entirely suited to the needs of the
woman who busies herself with the
affairs of |ter housekeeping.
To be successful with the house
>wn Is to understand first how to se-
lect the material for making it. This
models are made of combinations of
white with the several fast .shades of
blue, green, lavender and light brown
These are often combined with a plain
fabric in a solid color, as in the dress
shown in the picture.
The house dress Is to be cut In one
piece and loosely adjusted to the fig-
ure. The sleeves are not to be longer
than three-quarter length and the skirt
should hardly reach the instep. The
pattern should provide for easy Iron-
ing and the dress should fasten at the
front or wlth frnttffna ar^.

not vary greatly from year to year,
for the house dress Is not required to
follow the fads of fashion.
It Is a good plan to shrink materials,
and test them to see if colors are
stable, before making up. And the
house dress must be complete In It-

belt but easily and quickly slipped on
and fastened.

As moldy or wormy heads, or musty
and weeviled sorghum grain will not
be palatable to stock any more than
corn or oats in the same condition,
the proper harvesting and storing of
these grains is very Important to the
grower who Is to use them for feed
on his own farm. If the grains are
Intended for market it Is obvious that
to bring the best prices they must be
brought to market in as nearly prime
condition as Is possible.
In Farmers' Bulletin No. 686, "Uses
of Sorghum Grain," the ceroal experts,
especially those who have been spe-
ciaTlzirigT on '*!&- sorghums, offer the
following directions Tor "Tne*| 8§ra-
tion and storage of Grain sorghuiA.
Harvesting.
The graln-sorghum crop is harvest-
ed in three general ways. It is cut
with the corn binder, or headed with
the katlr head-y or ordinary grain
header, or it is headed by hand.
That which is bound may be fed in
the bundle or shocked and headed
later in the season or as needed. Feed-
ing in the bundle usually is practiced
only as a maintenance ration for
, horses not at work or cattle not pro
ducing milk or being fattened for mar-
ket.
One problem in the handling of
grain sorghum when the crop Is head-
ed Is the proper curing and storage
of the heads. Usually these heads
are thrown out In long, shallow piles
to cure, If the crop is at all green
or If it is wet from recent rains.
This Is a satisfactory way of curing
in favorable weather and If the piles
are not made too large.
If the crop Is fully mature and thor
oughly dry the heads may be hauled
direct to tho granary or crib. This
can be done more safely in the case
of milo and feterita than in the case
of kafir. The short, broad heads of
milo. with their somewhat crooked
stems, do not pack tightly together.
The kaflr heads are more slender, and
the straight stem is still green and
somwhat juicy when the grain Is ripe.
This crop is more likely to heat, there-
fore, when piled In quantity.
Headed katlr or milo may be sold
or fed In the head, or the heads may
be ground into head chops, or they j
may be threshed and only the grain i
used. The threshed grain should I
never be fed whole, but always ground !
coarsely, in which form it Is known
as kaflr or milo chops.
Storing.
One of the problems In connection '
with the use of these grains is In the |
storage of the heads or threshed grain
or chops. «^^^^^^*hey may get
TiT damaged |
If special < '
and bins used for storing the heads
should bo well ventilated. They
should be examined from time to time
to make sure that the contents are not
being damaged by heating.
The grain should always be allowed
to become thoroughly cured before
threshing or grinding. In ordinary
threshing a high percentage of the
grain is cracked. Cracked grain will
absorb moisture and spoil more read-
ily than whole grain. Great care
should be taken to crack as little as
possible in threshing. The proportion
of cracked kernels can be much de-
creased by reducing the speed of the
cylinder or by removing part of the
concaves.
The grain should be thoroughly dry
before being stored in bins and It
should be watched while storage con-
tinues. The average moisture content
of sorghum grain Is not as high as
that of corn. This is due partly, per-
haps, to its being produced in dry dis-
tricts. Nevertheless, when the water
content is above normal they will heat
readily if not carefully handled. Ex-
cessive moisture content is probably
tho most common cause of damage.

3 Separate the laying hens from the
sitting hens.
4. Gather the eggs at least every
day, better twice a day during verv

5. Keep all eggs in a dry. cool, well
ventilated place.
6. Do not keep eggs In a kitchen
near a fire of any kind.
7. Never wash eggs; as It spoils
their keeping qualities.
8. Do not Bell eggs "case count,"
but demand that your eggs be candled.
9. It Is best to market the eggs
every three days In warm weather.
10. Do not market eggs that have
been placed In an Incubator and can
died out.
11. Do not market small, inferior
and dirty eggs. Use this kind at home
12. Eggs readily absorb odors and
should be kept away from anything
such as oil. onions or any material
that has a strong odor.
13. Separate the mrle birds from the
flock as soon as the batching season is
over.
14. Eggs that are of questionable
quality, such as those secured from
stolen nests, ought not to be marketed
as fresh eggs. I
16. When taking eggs to msrket It
la better to keep them covered rather
than to expose them to the sun's rays.

Better Growth the First Summer Than
Those Planted in ths Spring
and Winter.
Trees and shrubs planted In the
fall make a better growth the first I
summer than those planted in the !
winter and spring. This is a fact that 1
has long been known by tree planters !
Investigations by the Missouri experi-
ment station show that the growth
of a tree set in the fall is better than
that of one set In the soring by from
23 to 100 per cent.
The chief reasons for this differ-
ence In favor of early planting are the
solid packing the soil around the roots
and the early callousing of the cut
surfaces. Roth these are essential as
preliminaries to growth. Iluds on
spring-planted trees swell before the
roots start, and seemingly the tree
loses no time, but as a matter of fact
growing cannot really begin till the
roots have started. They must send
up to the trunk and branches sap, and
this can be done only when roots have
taken hold of the earth so that a lib-
eral supply of sap may be furnlshefl
from below to replenish that stored
In the tree which tends to flow up-
ward with the coming of spring
Therefore it la well to plant trees as
early in the fall and winter as they
can be had in good condition from
the nurseries.—Southland Farmer.

Is it possible there is a woman in this country who con-
tinues to suffer without giving Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound a trial after all the evidence that is con-
tinually being published, which proves beyond contradic-
tion that this grand old medicine has relieved more suffer-
ing among women than any other one medicine in the world ?
We have published in the newspapers of the United States
more genuine testimonial letters than have ever been pub-
lished in the interest of any other medicine for women—
and every year we publish many new testimonials, all gen-
uine and true. Here are three never before published:
From Mrs. S. T. Richmond, Providence, R. I.
Providence, R. I.—" For the benefit of women who suffer as I have
done I wish to state what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has done for me. I did gome heavy lifting and the doctor said it
caused a displacement. I have always been weak and I overworked
after my baby was born and inflammation set in, then nervous pros-
tration, from which I did not recover until I had taken Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound. The Compound is my best friend and
when 1 hear of a woman with troubles like mine I try to induce her
to take your medicine."—Mrs. S. T. Richmond, 84 Progress Avenue,
Providence, R.L
From Mrs. Maria Irwin, Peru, N.Y.
Peru, N.Y.—" Before I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound I was vi -y irregular and had much pain. I had lost three
children, and felt worn out all the time. This splendid medicine
helped me as nothing else had done, and I am thankful every day
that I took it."—Mrs. Maria Irwin, R.F.D. 1, Peru, N.Y.
From Mrs. Jane D. Duncan, W. Quincy, Mass.
South Quinoy, Mass.—"The doctor said that I had organic trouble
and he doctored me for a long time and I did not get any relief. I
