The Summer Fashions.

The newest brocades are velvet frise
on satin grounds with floral designs.
Dog collars worn with low and
square-cut dresses are velvet or satin
| covered, with beads CORE nding
with those on the dress.
The newest fancy fringe consists of
poppy heads attached to a heading of
beaded gimp, tassels of beads depend
ing from them.
The newest English jackets for
young girls are of corded, brocaded or
elastic cord. They are closely fitting
at the back, with loose fronts, some.
times fastened diagonally They have
numbers OF pockets, and have large
wooden buttons.
The tendency on all sides, at home
and abroad, is to simplicity in morn
ing and afternoon dress. Trimming is
no longer superauously employed as
of late, but is confined strictly to pur-
poses of legitimate use and ornamen.

in front, and frequently they fall in
natural folds, especially in the case of
the lighter fabrics, which appear to
best advantage when they hang per-
lectly straight and plain.
The tiny bright-colored beads are
coming over from France in quantities
never before deemed possible. One of
the prettiest found, if not the most
adaptable, in which they are import
ed, IS the wire braids. They are strung
upon wires and woven in squares,
with a large bead in the center Of each
alternate square, and thus form a
braid ten inches wide. It can then be
used as covering for panel in an
underskirt, or to face back a rever, or
to simulate panel over the hin by
attaching it to the edge Of the BASQUE.
1rridescent or FURNISHED jets are usu-
ally used in this manner rather than
white or black jets. Another popular
design in which these beads are used
is effected in this way: The jets are
strung upon wires and then bent to
form any sort of flower or eeometri-
cal pattern: One flower connects with
the other, and, as the wire is fine and

peas, in rows four feet apart. When
fairly up they were cultiva ted, and
Early Ontario potatoes planted in
rows betw cen the peas, except that
two spaces were set with early celery
for summer use, 100 plants. The last
week in July alternate rows of pota-
toes were dug, and rows Of celery set
eight feet apart, 800 plants for fall
use. About August 2OI 200 plants
for winter use were pat out. This
last planting should have been 300
plants to make a full supply for win
ter and spring for a family of ten to
fifteen. The plants were set six inches
apart in the row. eight inches would
be better, where the ground is made
as rich as it should be.
AS the soil was not more than ten
inches deep and underlaid with clay,
made it deeper by throwing out for
the celery rows about six inches oftop
soil and then six inches more, keeping
them separate. l then filed the
trenches nearly full with top soil, we'll
rotted manure, hen manure, and wood
ashes, mixing them thoroughly. The
trenching would not have been neces-
sary had the soil been sufficiently
deep and rich for the roots, which run
very deep in good soil. With excep-
ton OF the plants intended for winter,
the celery was banked up gradually,
as it grew. At the first banking, the
ground was first loosened with hoe,
then each plant taken separately in
loft hand and dirt enough drawn close
around it with right hand to hold the
leaves together and upright. After
ward, more earth was brought up to
the plants, from time to time, with
hoe or spade. The plants for winter
were dug in early November and pack
ed close in a trench one foot wide and
as deep as the plants were high. The
soil was filled in close to the plants at
the sides, and the plants covered with
leaves six inches deep. In December
as many more leaves were put over
With this protection the celery kept
well.-Professor G. II. Damn.

works would be serious frey There
Is only one argument against the works,
and that is the expense, while every
other consideration is in their favor.
The health of the people, the pros

safety from destruction b. fire all favor
the building of waterworks. We
cannot expect prosperity unless our
people do something to bring it about.

RAIN, WIND AND HAIL vi.
cinity was visited yesterday evening by
heavy rain storm, accompanied with
some wind, and, IN places, destructive
hailstone. Several window lights In
the north part of town we're broken,
and northeast, east and south of Speare-
vile the crops are all badly damaged,
and small grain ruined. How far it ex-
tended We have not yet been able to
learn.
A portion of the roof of the depot at
Offerle was blown off. The ditch
camp near Bellefont was all blown
down except one tent; the cook house
is reported to be a complete wreck.
The hail in that vicinity was terrific,
and great many quite large-the size
of hulled walnuts, and a few much
larger.
This was no cyclone or tornado and
only light buildings without proper fas-
Jennings wero affected, and a good many
''turnups" of this kind might be
noticed.-Speareville Blade, 18th.

Theodore Pilloud received a letter
from his brother in Calhoun county,
Iowa, written June 14th. The writer
says: Small grain is likely to be a
small crop: Some was killed by wet
weather, and then it set in dry, and
has not rained enough to lay the dust
for five weeks. Some corn is laying
in the ground just as it was put there.
Everything is low. Corn 1Octs, po-
tatoes no sale; hogs So 30, wheat from
20 to 40 cents, cattle no sale.
Some Of the tenderfeet in this Sec
ton were quite respondent before the
rains, but their lot would be no better
in other places.
Mr.. Pilloud cut 20 acres of Alabama
wheat for Ed Carlock south of Apple
ton. The wheat will average 25 bush
els to the acre.

quarters of an hour. The rain fell in
torrents for some time, a fall of ITO
inches being recorded With the rain
fall of Friday morning and Thursday
night there is total fall of 3 inches,
within the time of "a hours. The
wind Friday night blowed with rotary
motion and made considerable noise.
Some of our citizens were alarmed, but
there was no serious damage done.
Several frames were moved from their
foundations. The house being built by
James Welch, west Of Bells livery
stable, was blown down. H. G.. Ba-
ker 8 frame moved about a foot from
the foundation. The frame school

irrigation in Kansas on the largest scale
yet attempted. It IS to be hoped that
it will be entirely successful, for if it
is demonstrated that it is, the value of

be immeasurably enhanced. All the

The cost necessary to sustain water

Last week we stated that Dodge
City was no rival of Garden City, and
that money loaners considered Dodge
City 80 per cent better than Garden
City. The Daily Sentinel replies, but
evades the point that Dodge City is a
better CITY for investments than Garden
City.
We shall be as unkind as the Senti-
mel. Garden City may not have de-
pended on the ''cattle and whisky bust
ness, but that city does depend on an ar
tifcial boom, and when permanent bus
mess is assumed Garden City will fail
back, to proceed again, we hope, upon
solid and 6rmerbasis. Our neighbor-
ing city has built largely on wind.
This is very good article on a short
run, but it requires wind and sand
both for long and steady jaunt.
Garden City may claim having both
wind and sand, but it is hardly possible
she has, and If so, it is the kind of
wind and sand that flies so, and not the
steady blow and solid ingredients.
Of course Dodge City is no rival of
Garden City. Dodge City does not
want Garden City's low lands and ma
laria, stagnant pools and mosquitoes.
But Garden City has street car line,
and the town may be ''some pumpkins"
after awhile. The town is aping city
airs-they call it metropolitan up
there, and in the course of human
events may have electric lights, water
works, and the cholera. We agree
with the Sentinel, that -'there is room
For both Of us here, but We beg to say
that Dodge City is now the metIopolis.
