The modern practice among the best posted and 'most progressive horse owners and farmers is to clip all horses in the spring. It is done on the theory that in their, natural state horses .were not obliged to' work, so could shed the winter ooat 'in comfort over a period of.several weeks. Since we oblige._them to do hard, work on - warm spring -days, the winter coat should be removed for the slime reason that we lay off our heavy winter garments: Clipped horses dry off rapidly, hence they. do not take.•cold as easily nor are they as prone to be:affected with other ailments as' unclipped animals whose longer hair holds the perspiration kr hours. Because clipped horses dry off rapidly they rest better, get more good from their food and come out in the morning refreshed and fit . for work. Since the advent of the ball bear- ing enclosed gear clipping ma chine, the work of taking off the winter. coat is easy. With the ma- chine a horse can be clipped all over in half an hour, whereas with the old two -hand -clipper it required several hours to do it. Dairymen also now clip the cows" all over two or three times a year. The flanks and udders are clipped every three or four weeks, so' it is easy to clean the parts before milking. This means less opportu- nity for dirt and other impurities to get into the milk. Tips to Ilousewives. When buttons are taken from an old dress they should be strafing on a string before putting them into the button box. Rancid butter can be sweetened by cutting it into two or three pieces and allowing it to stand in sweet milk for six or eight hours. White discolorations on furniture are successfully removed by rub- bing them lightly with a soft cloth moistened with essence of pepper- mint. Small boards on which to set saucepans, kettles, frying pans, etc., can easily be made, and they are a great saving to the kitchen table. When a sponge becomes slimy, soak it in strong borax water, wring out and renew the water. Continue this until the sponge be- comes clean. Flatirons, when put • away for some time, should be rubbed on the bottom when slightly warm with a mixture of vaselirie and sweet .oil. If a small amount of moist cot- ton is wrapped around the stems of. flowers before the tinfoil is put on the. flowers .can be worn much longer. Itub your eyeglasses with vase - line, then with a silk handkerchief. When you go out into the cold they will not become covered with steam. Lemon syrup made by baking a lemon for 90 minutes and then squeezing out the juice in half a, cup of sugar, is very good for hoarseness.

Rub a little butter under the eelge • of the spout of the cream pitcher; ib will prevent a drop of cream from running down over the pitcher. Before washing lace curtains, baste a narrow strip of .muslin along the outer edge, allow it to remain until the washing and dry- ing process is complete. In washing colored mus/ins the colors are likely to run. Soak it first in salt and water, allowing a handful of sa],t to one gallon of water.

The chief bookkeeper in a large business house in one of flue great Western cities speaks of the harm coffee did for him. (Tea is just as injurious because it, contains caf- feine, the same drug found in cof- fee.) - "My wife and I drank our first cup of Post= a little over two: years ago .and we have ' used it ever since, to the entire exclusion of tea and coffee. It happened in this way: "About three and a :half years ago I hacl an attack of pneumonia, which left a memento in the shape of dyspepsia; or rather, to speak more correctly, neuralgia of ..the stomach. My `cup of cheer' had. always been coffee or tea, but I be- came convinced, after a time, that they aggravated my stomach trouble. I happened to mention the matter to nay grocer one 'day and he suggested that I give POS - tuna a. trial. "Next day it cane, but the cook made the mistake of not boiling it sufficiently, and we did not like it much. This was, how.evere soon. remedied, and now we like it so much that • we will never -cif: tinge back. Postuna, being a food 'bever- age instead of a drug, has been the means of banishing nay stomach trouble, 1 verily believe, for'I am a well man to -day and have used no medicine.
