Fashion Notes

A pretty idea is to cover the entire hat
and lace with butterfly gauze of some de-
licate tint, pale-blue shell-pink or apple
green. The ends are tied under the chin
in large bow. Four yards Of gauZe are
required for the proper effect.
New Paris bats are modification OF the
capote aud the hat, and have somewhat
the shape OF high turban. The brim of
1t closely fits the roundness Of the head,
and 1t is placed not SO tar back as the
bonnet and not so near the forehead az
the hat. The crown is soft and very high.
Angel sleeves are seen on most Of the
house dresses and wrappers, and are very
becoming to a shapely arm as we'll as
cool during sUltry weather. Morning
gowns Of creamy-white surah and Valen-
ciennes llace are exquisite. Those who
cannot afford them take ones of white
muslin and embroidery.
Nantes are certainly departing from
their old lines this season, as many of
them are dispensing with sleeves and con-
sIst only of back and front and decora-
tive epaulette. Those made in brown
beads are exceedingly pretty. Piastrons
made OF velvet, lace, gimp, ETC., also do
duty for mantles. They are all richly
trimmed with beads and bugles.
Fruit is to be worn on bonnets and hats
as the season advances, land, rs is the case
almost every year, red and white cur
rants, black and red cherries, are already
mounted en- djgrette and in mixed sprays
but the newest is the little red pimento
berry, elegantly mounted in TUFTS. Fruit,
when solid, wears better at the seaside
and IN the country than either feathers or
flowers.

THE TIME OF PLANTING.

In comparing the planting time this
year with last. it is found that the date of
finishing planting is about the same,
which would make il later than the ave-
rage by fifteen days. In comparing the
condition OF the stands on May q, this
year, with June 4, 1885, it is found that
the general showing is less favorable.
Notwithstanding the difference in the
time OF comparison. it is certain that the
conditions this year will have to improve
IN order To equal those OF last year at
about this time. The fact seems to be
that the condition OF the crop throughout
the South this month is tair, while last
year it was undoubtedly good. 1t will be
seen that while North Carolina, Texas
and Arkansas were relatively the best of
on May -, South Carolina, Georgia and
Alabama were not So well situated 80 far
as stands are concerned.
