FASHIONS FOR MEN.

The Latest in Handkerchief, Hosiery,
Shoes, Hats and Gloves.
Observation-Disclosures of heavy but
fine white linen have hens only half
an inch wide, neatly hem-stitched. and
are marked with small initial em.
broidered in white, and plain white
silk handkerchiefs are similar to these.
For those who like color in morning
handkerchiefs are small dots or stars
or horseshoes wrought or printed on
the narrow hem, or else the silk hand
kerchiefs with white center and bor-
| der of solid color. Black socks remain
popular for dress and also for general
use; there are also many tan, Suede
and gray socks worn in wool, in silk
and the fine Balbriggan.
Shoes are not changed in shape, re-
tanning the medium rounded toes and
low broad heels. Walking shoes are
buttoned CATERS of calf-skin, and
dress shoes are of patent-leather with
kid or cloth uppers.
The stiff Derby of black felt is the
hat for business and general wear. It
is made this season with a round full
crown five and a half to six inches
deep, and has a heavy coarse-ribbed
band and binding on the brim. The
silk hat for all dress occasions, taking
the place of the folded opera hat for
evening wear, has a crown more bell
shaped than that of last season. and
is six and three-fourths inches high.
though young men choose hats a trife
lower in the crown. The brim is
heavier and more rolled than it has
been lately. For steamer use and
travelling generally are fore-and-aft
caps, with visor in front and back,
made of plaid or checked wool to
match that of the ulster. Boys of ten
years and upward wear felt Derby
hats; smaller boys, from four to six
years, wear tapering-crown Alpine
hats of felt or of the more dressy silk
beaver. Fatigue caps of cloth with a
visor are worn by boys of seven to
fourteen years to match their cadet
suits.
Craven tan "a reddish brown) and
gold tan are the colors of the heavy
kid gloves with corded backs chosen
by men for general wear. Guests at
afternoon weddings and receptions
wear lighter fawn-colored gloves fas-
tened by two large gilt buttons. The
groom wears pearl-colored gloves
stitched with pearl color, and the ush-
ers wear pearl gloves with black
stitching. With evening dress pearl
gloves that are nearly white are worn

ECONOMICAL FOODS,
A Momentous Problem Which Is Agitat-
Ing the Entire Farming World.

A Momentous Problem Which Is Agitat-
Ing the Entire Farming World.
Necessity is in measure regarded
rs the mother of invention. and it may
be to some extent this fact that is
leading farmers to seek cheaper foods
Western farmers have been wont to
rely upon corn, both for grain and for
roughness as principal food for stock,
pasturing during the summer and then
the winter until the proper growth is
secured, when they are fattened almost
entirely upon corn. Different causes
combined have lowered prices so that
the margin of profit between the price
OF the grain and the value of the stock
when ready for market is so small that
unless good care is taken even this
will disappear.
As farmers can not do much towards
raising prices, the next best thing they
can do is to lower the price of produc-
ton as much as possible. An i'm
portant item in securing this is of
course cheaper food. This can be Sc
cured either by using cheaper materi-
ais or increasing the value of those we
already have.
The grinding of grain used as feed
has been thoroughly tested and it has
definitely been settled that it is more
valuable than ungrOund. That is,
grinding increases the value, princi-
pally by making it easier to digest
and assImilate. The fact has been
settled for some time that the feeding
value was considerably increased, but
the question to determine is whether
the grain is sufficient to pay for the
grinding or not. So with ensilage.
Corn fodder is recognized as one of the
very best materials We can use, and
with the Western farmer it is one of
the cheapest feeding materials that
can be secured. Ensilage is fodder
preserved green. 1t is dried out and
can be left in the field until wanted or
by hauling in and storing under shell
ter its value is increased. That to
some extent at least ensilage is most
excellent food and is better relished
by the stock and will keep the stock |
In better condition Is also true, but |
whether this is sufficient to paw for
the work OF building the silo, or place
for storing the fodder. and for the
extra work of cutting and piling |
Is not so clearly determined. Cutting |

feed. cutting the hay, straw. and
