nenar,men, OF AgrlcuIture.

Secretary Rusk has issued a i've.
ly report from his Department. Ac-
cording to his statement meat
products are Is per cent. higher
than one year ago, and with good
prices for increased yields OF cereals
the agricultural productions Of 1881
are 300, 900, 900 greater than last
year. This cheerful statement is
the first in the third annual report
ofJ. NJ. Rusk, secretary Of the uni
ted States department Of agricul-
ture. lie emphasizes the great in
crease in our agricultural exports,
and admits larger import Of. pro-
duce-mainly sugar, fibers, ETC.,
that do not compete with our home
grown stuff. The weather bureau
has greatly increased its staff and
it's efficiency under the department
OF agriculture, but Secretary Rusk
fails to show that with free delivery
and the postal telegraph the wealth
or reports could be made useful to
the great mass OF farmers who now
get no good out of them. Uncle
Jerry is level headed in pointing
out that within twenty years our
population will exceed 100 millions,
OF whom 40 per cent will be direct
ly dependent upon agriculture; and
hence that this department of the
federal government should be SO
equipped and endowed that it can
do the larger work tefore it. de
wan an outfit that will enable the
department to acquire all known
facts about culture Of the soil aud
disposal of crops, and transmit
the same to the people. The score
tary OF agriculture also desires the
"fullest powers necessary for the
supervision and control of all inter-
state or foreign commerce in agri-
cultural products and of fraudulent
and other substitutes therefor, for
the invesli igatien of all animal dis
eases, aud for the control OF the
movement of all animals which may
be affected by communicable DIS
eases, and even within certain
limits for an adequate supervision
of the. trade in agricultural products
in all foreign markets" Uncle
Jerry has done well. He stauds up
for the working farmer every time.
lie lugs politics into his work quit
more than Is necessary, but his mo-
tIyes are recognized as the best, wen
by his political opponents. Yet the
depal tment doesn't do half what
it might, and must and shall.

A Man Thermometer.

Lean men make the best thermome-
ters. Fahrenheit never invented better
ones. If the weather is warm and sunny
they are cheerful If cold and frosty,
they are irritable and snappy If damp
and cloudy, they are downcast and
gloomy. But if either lean or fat men
are suffering from biliousness, headache,
constipation or Indigestion, the weather
will always be damp and cloudy in their
locality, unless they use DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. These Pellets are
small, sugar coated granules, calculated
to start the liver and digestive organs

RECENT IMPoRTATIoNs IN MILLINERY.
Bonnets are often entirely formed of
beads or of plain felt trimmed with velvet
and osprey, or Of open jet applique on to
the metal. Fluted shapes, the flutes start
ing from the crown toward the brim, are
new and promise to be much worn. Some
bonnets are formed entirely Of a jet bird,
with outstretched wings, having a velvet
edge, or sometimes chenille edge, which
is newer. Chenille is used in all colors.
One of the features in millinery is the
varied treatment of feathers. Tiny birds
and wings are bedezined with gold, silver
and steel tinsels, and many other metallic
tints. Gold and green metallic feathers
form an important part in millinery, and
feathers Of various kinds are covered with
spangles Of gold, lined with red, copper or
green; the shades in which these tiny
spangles are made are often novel and
original. In the cut are shown sketches of
recent importations. The hat with the
widespreading brim, slightly curved on
the left side, is black felt trimmed with
black ostrich plumes and a ribbon bow,
with jet dagger thrust through the cen
Ter. It would suit any young lady with an
ARTISTIC face The other hat is gray felt,
krimmed with black velvet and three black
birds. 1t Is useful hat, suitable for wear
Ing with any kind of dress. A jet swan is
khe chief ornament of the bonnet. It rests
on q band of pink velvet and there are tiny
black tips and an aigrette at the back.
The strings Of bonnets are seldom worn
tied in a bow. They are simply crossed
under the chin and fastened at the side
with jeweled pins.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-12-09
Dress Sleeves,

The most fashionable sleeves Of the mo-
ment appear still to be the one large puff
from the shoulder to the elbow, with tight
gauntlet to the wrist, but a newer kind
has cuff which turns downward toward
the knuckles and almost hides the hand.
1t is to be hoped that this will not gain
any special favor. 1t is neither comfort
able wear nor pretty to look at. 1t makes
the forearm look too long and interferes
with the quick movement of the hand.
Nearly all the sleeves, however, that
have seen at present are very high on the
shoulder, and there seems to be a tendency
to wear them very close about the wrist
Many button on the outside Of the arm.

Tho Revival of Grape.

The mourning dress worn by French
women is much lighter and more whole
some than the heavy attire known as Eng
lish mourning. Formerly Parisians wore
but little Grape. but they have recently re-
turned to its use, owing to the fancy for all
crinkled stuffs and because the best Grape
is now colored by purely vegetable dyes
that are inodorous and not injurious to
health. They wear wells Of Grape draped
permanently on the back Of the bonnet in.
stead of covering the face; short face
veil may be added of grenadine or of Brus-
sells net bordered with Grape. Widows
dresses have the entire front covered with
English Grape, as vest on the basque and

BOas Again tho Rage.

Boas are to be the rage again. They are
much larger than those worn last season,
and are in all lengths, from the short col
lar tied at the back with long ribbons to
those that almost sweep the ground. They
are made of lace, flowers, feathers and
every kind of fur. The cock feather boas
are not stylish unless of the pointed black
variety; they are made very large at the
back of the neck and taper to slender
points at the ends. Great fluffy boas OF
gauze are made in all the delicate colors
for ballroom wear.

The new shapes in felt hats are exceed

fair is usually held one or at most two
days. Cheap buildings are erected, or in
some cases where the fair holds but one
day, no buildings at all are put up. A small
entrance fee is charged. moderate pre-
miums awarded, and no claptrap of any
kind is admitted to or near the grounds.
To show that larger fairs are susceptible
of reform, note the Ohio state, which a
