Dresses Which Are Made for Travelling
and Shopping Purposes.
For demi-season dresses for travelling,
shopping and for morning wear. navy
blue alpaca is being made up in i'm
itation OF the graceful gowns worn
during the summer by the Princess OF
Wales and her daughters. For very
young ladies silver braid or white mo-
hair has formed the trimmings. the mo-
hair being used as narrow vest, high
collar and straight cuffs, with rows Of
braid along the edges. and also on the
sash draperies that are worn with q
kilt skirt. For autumn dresses black
braid, or else dark blue Hercules braid.
will take the place of metal braids, and
either velvet or plush VIII be used for
the'vest. cuffs and collar. Long over
skirts that are made like the house.
maid skirts. and looped up on one sido
or both, will be used with these dresses.
and there may be rows OF braid or OF
velvet ribbon for the trimming. A side
panel of velvet will be chosen by those
who prefer pleated skirts with Greek
draperies. The new shade of brown.
called lynx brown, is also being made
up in mohair and alpaca dresses for the
,oree autumn months, when canvas
dresses will be too thin and cloth too
heavy for comfort. Gilt braid will be
sparingly used on such dresses, rather
as piping or edging for brown velvet
than in many snowy rows or in the YER
micelli patterns lately used. Wide wool
galloons and wool laces that are en,-

trimmings for lynx brown mohairs
while silver threads are wrought in sim
liar trimmings for gray dresses.
The mixed red and blue laces are also
being used to trim blue alpacas, and
with these are sometimes seen velvets
of the two colors. in stripes or in very
small figures, for the small accessor es
of the corsage The correct idea how
ever, in such dresses is to have them ex-
Gee lingly plain. depending on their fine

on mo'iair. it is most stvlish when con-

crosses the front and side cores, or else
there are two or three narrowed ruffleJ
of lace across the front and several
rows are placed up the left de III the
space left uncovered bv the drapery
Still another plan is that of edging side
pleats with narrow wool lace. and form
ing the front and sides of the skirt of
these pleas. When braid is CHOSEN for
trimming the new fancy is to TO. IN the
front breadth of two very wide box
pleats. covering these with clusters OF
cross rows of the braid. lengthening
each row in the cluster, and curling up
the ends toward the sides. A pointed
plastron made in the same way then
trims the corsage. and smaller points
are on the sleeves. To complete such ..
suit for travelling there should he lung

BEEF.

Wiltthe Price of Cattle Continue?-A Colo
RADIO View of the Matter.
Because we may take an elevated po-
sition on Pixies Peak and cast our eye
over millions of Broad-Horns, Short
Horns and Muleys, that is no reason why
the earth should be overstocked with
cattle. Remember, from the north of
Texas to the British possessions. along
the base of the Rocky Mountains. is the
greatest grazing field of the earth. Here
this belt of grass country 800 miles
wide by 5000 miles long are one fifth OF
all the grass-fattening cattle of America
Therefore, because we are In the center
of 10000, 900 of grass-eating cattle, lie
us not deceive ourselves in believing
that the whole earth is so fully stocked.
While in the last ten years the cattle
supply along this grazing belt has been
increased but five millions, it will be
proper to mention that the Defeating
population of America has increased
fifteen million and more. Another mat
ter is worthy of note in this connection,
and that is the fact that the same num-
Der Of people to-day eat double the
pounds of beef the same number of peo-
pie did twenty years ago. With the
rapidly-increasing refrigerator car and
steamship system it is but rational to
believe and expect that in one year more
the shipment of dressed beef to Europe
will at least be doubled. There is no
danger of decline in the cattle-grow-
ing industry.
1t must be remembered that the
Plains cattle proper are really not a
chief factor in the worlds production OF
meat. There are two-really three
important integers not mentioned by the
Record. that have been more pronounced
in enabling feeders to keep peace meas
urably with consumption. These are,
cheap corn, enabling feeders to largely
increase the weight of cattle slaughtered,
increased size Of beet by better breeding,
and early.maturity. Export cattle are,
and must necessarily be, the better bred,
heavy, stabbed cattle, while grass-fed
cattle of the plains of Texas will furnish
ordinary butchers cattle, packing cat
tie, and such as are used for canning
purposes. There is no reason, however,
why the United States should not fairly
keep pace with the increasing wants Of
foreign nations, until our own fast-in-
creasing population obliges us to rele-
gate the foreign supply to the foreign
regions heretofore mentioned. If BY
10000, 900 the Rec rd means range cat
tie, it is probably about 1900. 600 of cat
tie too high. The plains integer is only
about one-scventh of the cattle of the
United States. The other six-seventh
are bred and fed on farms. Neverthe-
less, Colorado may be somewhere near
the center OF 10000. 600 of cattle coming
from the Pacific to the trans Mississippi
farms. Colorado Live Stock Record.

A MONEY DRESSER.


How One Man Makes Living in the
Great Metropolis.
An old-coin man visits the offices oil
the Elevated Railroad every few days
to purchase the worn and plugged coin
taken in at the stations, and refused at
the banks, as well as the foreign coin.
He also buys up the mutilated silver.
nickels and coppers that are dropped by
absent-minded passengers into the gate
boxes. There are many persons who,
On getting their change with ticket at
the window of the ticket office, will
carefully put the ticket in their pockets.
and will drop their change in the toll
collectors box. Some ladies drop
their pocketbooks in. while they hold
their tickets with great care. Inside
of each box, there is cylinder
full of teeth, and when piece of coin
goes into the receptacle below, it
has two holes in it or is clipped
at the edges. Every day the
mass of mutlated tickets is over
hauled in the man office before
being sent into the waste and
these coins are sifted out. From five
to nifty dollars day have been picked
out in this way. The money is so mu-
tulated that it can not be passed, and it
is sold to the old coin ms- - about
seventy cents on the dollar.
This curious Spectator somerime.
carries away six or seven hundred dol
lars worth of such coin. He calls him
self money dresser" a business
which he insists IS just as legitimate as
that of coffee polsher." or a dry
goods dresser. He beats out the twisted
or bruised coin cleans the soiled cop
per, brightens the foreign coin, and
goes on his tour to dispose of his goods.
The foreign money is sold to the stew
ards of foreign vessels. and the po~r
American coin is worked off at the cat
tie yards and sent out West. Much OF
it finds its way into the hands of the cow
boys. who spend it as freely as though
1t was fresh from the mint. The
''money dresser searches his purchas-
ers WY carefully. and occasionally
finds al old coin that pays him several

Green Cropping for Fall Sheep.

Our farmers could very profitably
borrow from their English cousins some
system of green corn cropping and feed
ing on the ground of such fields as are
intended for the fallow. The thick
growth of the feeding plant would
smother ana prevent all weed growth
and the eating of Of such a heavy
growth by sheep would. while fattening
the latter, greatly enrich the ground,
and especially SO if with the green crop
the sheep were given daily feed Of
grain or rat meal. For this purpose the
fields should be plowed early, thoroughly
cultivated and sowed to some such crop
as mustard. rape or spring vetches, OF
if sown at intervals, possibly oats and
peas would make good crop. When
the crop has made suitable growth the
sheep should he put on one side Of the
field, and so kept as TO eat the CROP
clean rs they advance. ---Ra al Nese
