The Winter sIillfnery.

Unquestionably the small bonnet 10 the
most stylish and becoming OF all the millinery
crea ions of the season. TIL bonnet is moi
as small as some Of those formerly WORK..
neither is the size arbitrary. The style and
size of the face and head are carefully studied
and the bonnet artistically adapted to the
general characteristics Of the wearer. velvet
bonnets are preferred for dressy or SEMI
dress occasions, while felt is preferred ior
the promenade and informal wear. Strings
are almost universally worn, and almost all
bonnets have ostrich plumes in some form
among the trimmings.
Fancy materials are used to some extent,
but the preference is for a plain fabric OF one
color or two distinct plain materials used to-
eether. The exception to this is in embroid-
cred goods, which are deliberately decorated
with gold threads, and floss silk embroidery.
The edges Of felt bonnets are cut out in
various fancy shapes or are embroidered or
braided in the most artistic fashion with fine
metal thread or braid. There are many IN
dications of the revival Of some form OF face
trimming for bonnets. Close bands are set
across the inside of the brim next to the
head, and on these bands are placed narrow
lines of ostrich feather trimming, with bows
Of ribbon, velvet leaves and tiny punches OF
fancy feathers.
Birds with plumage are used to some ex-
tent, and aigrettes are exceptionally popular
There are many feathers of various sorts
curled into pompon shape, and used as orna-
ments to conceal the ends Of plumes and
H. g,,4a1;,,ra 90 ,ihbA,, fri m ynirrc forv
handsome wings and made-up feather orna-
ments are used. and very light fluffy boas OF
fine ostrich flues have one end attached to
the back Of the bonnet, leaving the other end
which is from one and one-half yards to two
yards long, to be twisted around the neck.
Some of the new plumes measure nearly
t~hree-quarters Of a yard, and as many as six
short tips may be worn on one bonnet
Hats are very popular for young and stylish
ladies. They have very wide brims and
square crowns. The back OF the brim is
frequently turned up to the crown, and
firmly fastened. From this point many
trimmings are set, extending directly for
ward. For example, two very long OF made
plumage are attached at this point, and en-
tirely cover the sides Of the hat, the tips OF
the wings standing almost upright over the
front of the hrim.
English turbans are popular, also the walk
ing hat and small toque. The latter. while
very popular with many ladies, must be most
artistically made, or it has a common and in
aatistic effect. The formation Of the article
is suggestive OF q twist or two OF cloth on a
frame, and so many of them are made of
cheap and inappropriate material that the
style does not find favor in strictly artistic
oirplns

Tiios in the West.

Advices from the west show hat a large
per cent. of the silos viii be filed this season
with whole fodder. About twenty silos in
Wisconsin last year were so filed, with tho
best OF success, and this has induced many
who think that they cannot afford to buy cut-
ters to build silos and fiji tho cheaper way.
The success of Professor Henry in this line
with both corn and clover has lead others to
investigate, and now some of the largest silo
men In the state are all advocating and prac-
ticing filing their silos with whole fodder.
Nj. Gonld visited several of these "wllole"
silos and in every case found the silage in
fine condition and il anything nearer the de-
sired ripeness than cut silage. Cheap re-
moyal from the pits is the problem they have
to solye.-Rural New Yorker.

Varieties of Fruits.

We are apt to think that the cultivation and
naming of numerous varieties of fruits is q
comparatively modern practice. But how
far from true is this belief may be shown by
the fact that between the years 1898 md 1t2S
LIE Lectier, royal ~procurator at Orleans and
n famous ~pomologist, collected in his garden
262 varieties of pears. In 1923 he printed a
long catalogue of fruits, and caused it to be
circulated with the request that cultiyators
would inform him with regard to all varieties
as yet unknown 10 him.

MONMOUTH PARK. Aug. 6.-"Cham-
pion day" at Monmouth Park was a
most interesting one. There were
1880 persons in attendance. and they
had perfect weather for the enjoyment
of their sport. The track was in fair
condition. The interest was generally
centered in the second race, the rich
junior stakes, tbree-quarters of mile,
the value of which is more than $50, 1000.
Twelve starters came to the post.
Cayuga was the favorite at 2 to 1. The
start was an excellent one. Going up
the backstretch Ballarat made the
pace, Chesapeake at his saddle girths,
Devotee and Protection close up.
Chesapeake led Into the home
tretch, with Protection push
ing him and going steady as clock. At
the last furlong Protection was let out
and Immediately jumped into the lead,
and won with apparent ease his title to
Junior champion" He was two lengths
before Chesapeake, second, Banquet

FORFEITED TO ST. JOSEPH.

to an Unfortunate Ending.

TO an Unfortunate Ending.
Yesterdays game was forfeited to St.
Joseph, too. Mitchell was hit freely
by the st. Joseph people, and with the
infeld errors, which are becoming a
regular thing with the home team, had
run their score up to nine with one man
nur in the sixth inning, while the home
team seemed unable to hit Knell, and
had made only three runs. In the mid

Dermott suddenly turned around and
declared the game forfeited to st.

to leave the field, but it is doubtful ifhe
ever would have gotten out alive if
Duke and Jantzen hadn't protected him
as far as the gate, where Officer Four
skowiloomed up and escorted him to
his hotel, followed by mob of hoOting,

returned tickets to the peo-
pie as they went out, and
says he will have Hurst on the grounds
toumpire to-day. He will also pro-
test the game on the ground that there
is no rule by which the umpire could
declare the game forfeited. Referring
to the unfortunate affair last evening,
Umpire McDermott said he suspended
the game for the removal of an OBJ
noxious person, and forfeited the game
to st. Joseph under rule 26, section 3,
Minneapolis having failed to resume
playing within five minutes after he
called ''Play." The score up to the
time of the rumpuS is as follows:

Young Mr.. DAILY was given five
