NEXT WINTERS CLOTH WAISTS.

The cloth waists next winter are to
have the body of the waist braided
and the sleeves plain This will give
much the same effect that having the
waist of lace or chiffon has done, and
cannot be called an absolutely new
idea; but it is q becoming style, and
so is bound to be popular, although
many women prefer the pointed
braided vests, with collar and cuffs to
match; when the latter style ia chosen
the braid is put on velvet, and gives a
much richer look. The odd contrasts
of color will die out by this means, it
is said, but that remains to be seen.-

LATEST IN BRIDES GOWNS.

The gown of the most fashionable
brides is now of satin duchesse, snow
white for slender blonds, milk white
for fair, robust women, cream or ivory
white for brunettes and those who
fear to appear large. The closing of
the gown is concealed under the trim
ming of the corsage, the skirt fasten-
ing at the side, never down the middle
of the front, as that gives the look OF
wrapper.

so1LMa POTATO FOLIAGE.

It has long been krown that beans
will rust if they are cultivated while
their leaves are wet 80 that soil will
stick to them. Many farmers now be-
lieve that the leaves of the potato. es-
pecially in the late stages of their
growth, are equally liable to be In
jured by cultivation when wet. 1t is a
good plan to let the cultivator lie idle
in rainy time anyway. Weeds are
killed better while the soil is dry,
while if cultivated during a rainy
spell they are only transplanted and
made harder to kill than ever.

A Hoa-FEED1Na CONVENIENCE.

The usual hogs trough and the
usual method of getting food into it
are conducive to perturbed state OF
mind on the part of the feeder, be-
cause the hog is accustomed to get
bodily into the trough, where he is
likely to receive a goodly portion OF
his breakfast or dinner upon the top
of his head. The ordinary trough,
too, is difficult to clean out for SINH.
