This method spoils the shoes. Too much heat cracks and hardens leather. ' Another wrong way is to stand them on their soles, any where, to dry. The proper way is to place the shoes, soles upward, near enough to the fire to dry slowly and properly, but not to steam during the drying. The soles should always be turned upward, even when the shoes are only a little wet, for this way enables the air to reach tho wettest part of the leather first An Appropriate Street Costume. street costume of mixed brown stuff, trimmed with stitched bauds of brown broadcloth.

A huge knot of the silk inter twined with a coil of straw finished this spring beauty. As for raffia, a new field of usefulness has been discovered for It. Its possibilities as a material for the artistic embroiderer have Just been discovered. Linen and burlaps and materials of coarse texture are the best grounds for the raffia embroideries, but when they are used many of the embroidery stitches are poesible, and the effect, especially as summer decorations, Is very good. A great bunch of wheat embroidered on a pillow having an olive green color is one pretty design, and the edge of the pillow may be of plaited raffia of various colors, with the ends left in fringe effects.

A manual of forestry, written especially for the farmers and other land owners of southern New England, will be published in a few weeks by the bureau of forestry. It is to be called The Woodlot," and it will tell so simply and clearly how to treat the foreet land of the three states with which it deals Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island that even the land owner with no knowledge of forestry will be able to learn from it enough to improve his timber. The bureau of forestry for several years has given personal assistance in the owners who wished field to timber-lanto manage their forests conservatively. Agents of the bureau have made plans for the management ot many thousands of acres, a good part of which was in the southern New England states. The Woodlot" is a result of these field studies of southern New England timber lands. The various kinds of forest growth in Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island have been reduced to a few simple types, so clearly described that an owner who knows the names of his trees and the conditions under which they are growing will be able easily to place his timber lot under one of the types described. For each type of forest a plan of management is prescribed, illustrated by diagrams, d d half-rollin- A Bulletin tion of pure-brebreeding animals.
