The tendency is still toward the light

TWO NEW A

TWO NEW COATS.
Two coats We're sketched a few days
ago, worn respectively by the Countess
of Essex and Mrs. Arthur Paget.
One of the coats was a little tan Elton,
with spade front, long and pointed n
trimmed with braid. The other was the
new REFER with broad white satin lapels.
The REFER buttoned at the belt line with
m teWelled button. It's main feature
was a stitching of the darts of the lit
tie coat. Both of these coats were made
in Paris.
Eccentric is the word which one might
apply to the little coats of spring. A
pretty American girl, a Miss Rich of Chi
cago, purchased a gown for a fashion
able reception. It was in half a dozen
pieces, including skirt, Jacket. bolero,
vest, belt and tall covered collar.
1t was a typical calling costume. The
skirt was built of castor colored broad
cloth, piped with rose colored panne.
Around the foot there was a trimming
of bengaline. overlaid with a curious
cloth decoration. The cloth was cut in
strips, held together by a broad band
at top and midway. This entire deco
in such a way as to make a trimming
which looked %singularly like insertion.
Oddly and variety seem to be tha
dual aims of the French dressmakers.
and many of the new modes are entire
ly different from those seen in any pre-.
vious season.
The vest and girdle of this calling
dress were of white mousseline over
white satin, the former being consider
ably puffed so as to make a full front.
The jacket and the bolero We're quite
separate, one being put on over the 9TH
err. This jacket was cut in Zigzag Gre
clan fashion to show a broad expanse of
girdle and vest. It was of the castor
broadcloth. Over it was worn the tiniest
little jacket of AeOlian cloth, as thin as
crepe de chine and of a shade to exactly
match the castor broadcloth.

ELEVATOR LAW.

Judge Pollock has rendered a de-

the legislature, providing that all grain
IN elevators on the first Of April is sub
]ect to tax, no matter by whom owned
and that the grain was liable for the
amount of the tax. The case in dues
ton was that Of the Minneapolis &
Northern Elevator company vs.. Trail
county.
The facts show that the elevator
company had in it's elevator at Bel
mont, n. D., 20,6S5 bushels of wheat

return of the tickets. the same was de-
llvered to said Thompson. Insurance
was carried during all the time in he
name of Thompson.
The tax authorities of Trail County
assessed against the company on ac-
count Of said wheat a valuation of
S5,171 and proceeded to levy a tax
thereon. To defeat this tax as against
the company the action was brought.
Judge Pollock holds the law unconsti-
tutlonal and the tax legal. The case
will be appealed to the supreme court.

AGRICULTURE Up TO DATE.
Points From Secretary Wilson's Re-
port For 1899.

Points From Secretary WiIEon's Ae-;
port For 1890.
Much work has been undertaken on
behalf Of tobacco, looking to as wide
q substitution as possible Of home
grown for imported product, by i'm
proving the quality of the former. In
teresting Investigations as to the
causes affecting flavor and aroma are
being carried on.
From a study of the imports OF Den
mark, especially of American grains
AMI oilcake, the secretary concludes
strongly against a policy which steril-
ICES our lands at the same time that
it supplies other countries with the
means Of producing meats and dairy
products for foreign markets which
we could ourselves supply.
The interesting fact is noted that the
tea gardens at Summeryille produced
5000 pounds Of tea the past season
Irrigation experiments, improvement
Of varieties by importation and by
naturalization, are indicated as impor-
tant steps to be studied.
In regard to public lands the secre-
tary deplores the i'll results of inju-
dicious grazing due to the Indifference
Of the occupiers under the present sys-
tenn. He advocates leasing in large
areas and for a sufficient time to in
vite improvement and suggests that
the revenue from such leases might
be turned over to the states for edu-
c%ational purposes or irrigation.

England he says that they are not
abandoned on account of steridty; that
they will be studied by the soil physi-
cist, agrostologist and the forester,
and the valuable suggestions resulting
from their studies will be distributed
throughout New England.
The secretary discusses the subject
of irrigation at considerable length,
giving strong reasons for a general
study of the whole subject He points
out the wide difference in laws and
methods prevailing in the different
states dependent upon irrigation and
states that most important rivers have
streams supplying irrigation to half a
dozen states. Inevitably, under these
circumstances, differences will arise
calling for legislation by congress,
which should. therefore, be put in
possession Of all the facts affecting
this important subject as early as pos.
sible. He also points out that the use
fitness of this investigation is by nc
means limited to the arid region, but
that irrigation could be proftably en-
ployed in large areas in the eastern
and southern states.
Our imports Of oranges, lemons, co
coanuts, bananas, and especially cof
fee, Of which in 1898 we imported ovel
6 100000 worth, could, in large part
be produced in Porto Rico. The secre
tary especially recommends expert
ments in the production of india rub
: Der, for which we are now largely de
pendent upon Brazil.
