SUMMER BODlCES.

The Fitting and Draping of Favorite
styles.
With the plain skirts fancied, the
bodice of the summer silk aims to be
picturesque. The sleeves are some
times very high, sometimes only slight
ly SO, but they are always decorative.
Girdles of ribbor orvelvet encircle the
waist, and vests, or guimpes of contrast
ing materials make the bodice beauti-
full. The guimpe is invariably arranged
directly upon the lining, and is not, by
this careful disposition, likely to pull
out of place, on 10 look as if it were put
on awry. DrGped L lices are liked,
and the closing is concealed with as

skirt is moderately full in front much
fuller at the back, and has for a finish
,scant frill of the silk, nearly half a
yard wide, which is gathered and sewed
about the edge, sewed, by the bye, very
carefully, and by hand. The bodice
portion is fitted after the manner of "a
peasant-wais.. except that it comes high
Mpon the shoulders, and closes in front
where it folds over. Its rounded edge
is finished with folded frill of laven-
der silk, shade darker than that shown
in the stripe of the skirt. Above this is

finished about the throat with stock of
lavender ribbon. The sleeves are pretty

as light an effect were not desired, the

ABOUT LATE POTATOES.

How to Overcome the Dlnculties Incident
to Growing . Good Crop.
Whether late potatoes can be made
profitable crop or not depends consider
ably upon the season. Unless mulched
the yield in dry season could hardly
be made profitable, while in an aver
age season, with reasonably good
soil and proper cultivation, very fine
crop may readily be made. There is
always one advantage with both pota-
toes and turnips, if there is fair aver
age crop and prices are low they can
always be fed to stock with profit,
while if they command a good price
the crop is nearly always profitable
one to sell.
With all root crops it is necessary to
pillow the ground deep and thoroughly,
and with late'potatoes this is especially
the case. Have the seed ready so that
the planting can be made while the
ground is fresh. Run out the burrows
reasonably deep and then plant and
cover carefully, stepping on the hill so
as to press the soil down well upon the
seed. In many cases it will pay to roll
after planting, especially if the soil is
somewhat dry.
Potatoes to grow well need . good
deal Of moisture and for this reason, in
an ordinary season, late potatoes
should be covered tolerably deep. One
advantage i'm blowing and preparing
the soil deep before planting is that In
giving the cultivation afterwards the
the surface only needs to be stirred,
and, if care is taken to stir it frequent
ly, shallow cultivation will aid to retain
moisture in the soil, while deep cult
walton, especially if the plants are
hilled up, will aid to dry out the soil
The greatest difficulty in growing
late potatoes is that it SO often happens
that we have a dry spell of weather
when the tubers are forming, and, in
consequence, the yield is light. Thor
ough cultivation continued until after
the plants are in full blossom, or
mulching soon after the seeds are
planted, will in very many cases make
a good crop, when in an ordinary OF
dry season, with less care in the man.
agement, the crop would prove a fail

sary twill depend upon the character o.
the soil and the growth and thrift Of
the plants, but the soil must be kept
clean and in a good filth and must
be cultivated often enough to secure
this. t'lf
If mulching is followed the rows car
