Good News for Farmers.

August Fischer, Of the Cor

of encouragement for Benton
county Farmers. After several
months Of negotiating, Mr..

Wheat is quoted at As cents ia
Albany. Mr.. Fiscker is ready
to contract for this grain at AZ
cents per bushel. He will alse
assume charges for sacks secured
by farmers at other mills, and
will receive wheat at Granger,

has been and continues very
COED throughout the North and
East, and an average of "a, 900

volumes in favor OF diversified
farming, a subject now being
given considerable attention By

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, March I, 1901
A flourishing crop of brides is promised
for Easter week, and with an increased
workroom force the dressmakers are burn
ing the midnight gas in a praiseworthy ef-
fort at making the most of every Lenten
hour. Because the wedding gowns are more
and more elaborate every year, and the re-
quisites for a full trousseau grow in elabo-
ration every season, the workroom forces
are this Lent on an almost desperate
stretch. OF course, the most important
costume is fully trained, long of sleeve and
as high as possible in the throat.
In Paris pearl white satin is and has
been and probably will ever remain the
wedding dress Of choice and tradition, and
when the Partisan bride is very young she
gets nothing but white silk muslin for the
garnishment of her satin. Other countries,
other manners, and the American girl loves
lots of lace, silk instead of satin, and a
deep, deep cream silk at that. Confident
Of her youth and freshness, the American
brde-elect does not hesitate to choose bro
caded satin that in Paris is supposed to be
only fit for dowagers or white velvet that
in all continental Europe is esteemed pure
ly court material.
Bridal Fabrics.
Just for this year Loulsine SILK and peau
de sole are the popular bridal fabrics, and
their deep cream, almost golden tone, is
rather intensified by the time tint of the
lace that is used in garnishment. 1t is the
pleasure of a lucky girl to be married in
the laces her mother and grandmother
wore at their respective weddings, and Of
ten enough where the authentic veil and
fiounces are lacking, clever dressmaker
will have good web of modern Honiton,
duchess, English point or Brussels carefully
treated at a shop, where breeding and an
tique complexion to laces is specially. This
harmless hoax has been practiced often
that it requires an eagle eye to distinguish
between the lace that was made seventy
five years ago or only in 1900. To the

case, and this justly arouses the envy of
the American bride who desires to make
as admirable an exit, but conditions are
very different in the two countries. The Eng
lish bride usually gets into railway car
riage and makes run of half an hour to the
country place or the shooting box where
her honeymoon will be spent. In America
from two to five hours by rail is the first
effort demanded of a bride, whose pastel
tinted finery and white plumes would then
seem sadly out of place.
A simple tailor-made suit Is the best
going-away gown, after all, and many of
these, already finished for the April jour
ney to some earthly paradise, show smart
skirts of brown, dahlia red and blue. hop
sacking frieze, ladies' cloth or French
broadcloth, made to wear with coats of
black taffeta shot with the color that pre-
dominates in the cloth. A waist of white
or pale blue or pearl pink panne is worn
under the coat to the great advantage
and satisfaction of the travelling bride.
For Indoor Athletics.
Every season produces its one little spe-
cialty in Dress and in this first Lent of
the century there is degree of pleasant
pother over the bowling dresses that the
semi-athletic woman affects. The bowling
alley produces by all odds the best oppor-
tunities for showing off a lissom and
graceful figure to advantage, and the pos
SCISSOR of nice outlines is very much keener
over the proper drape of her train and
fit of her sleeves when she sends a ball
whirling over the boards than she is to
make a high score and win a prize For
bowling in clubs and evening parties the
short skirt and flannel shirt waist are as
much out of place as they would be at a
dinner party, and clear idea of a really
nice bowling dress is given in the pretty
sketch of the very slim girl and the very
fat ball. Her pretty suit is cream
colored drap de printemps stitched in clear
green and trimmed with bands of checked
green and yellow and cream-colored silk.
Stitchings and bands of the bright silk
head the three tucked ruffies on the skirt
and the waist opens in front to reveal a
vest of green chiffon embroidered in cream
colored dots.
This gown boasts train and front
long enough to touch the floor. as do all
the spring skirts, to which assurance the

A new style of sleeve has suddenly made
its appearance large puff OF different ma
terial from the rest OF the waist is at the
elbow, looking as though that part OF the
body had been injured, and consequently
had to be treated with a great bandage.
There is nothing whatever pretty about this
fashion, which has broken cut with some
virulence, for il makes the arm look de-
formed, or as though there had not been
quite enough of the original material to fin
ish the sleeve. A white gown that IS
trimmed with elaborate cut work has pun
of the cut work around the elbow. and a
black lace waist that is made up over white
satin has a putting of the white satin push
ing through the black lace also at the elbow,
while an all-black waist with white under
sleeves shows the undersleeve first at the
elbow and then again at the wrist. The
bishop sleeve, in itself an ugly fashion, Is
better than this last fad and even the un-
dersleeve is more attractive.
The fancy waists afford an excellent op-
portunity for the display Of strange fash
ions in sleeves; besides this puff that breaks
out at the elbow there is new sleeve that
is slashed from wrist TO elbow, showing a

For lack of something more original in
the composition of spring gowns the dress
makers cling valiantly to the undersieeve
and invent variations on the cuff and puff
that do credit to their ingenuity.
When it is a question of an afternoon
gown the insistence is in favor of a cover

angle of the elbow, and finished with a puff

Since the discovery that formaldehyde
is one of the most powerful of all germi-
cides many experiments have been made
to see in what form 1t can best be rem
dered for general use. 1t is now conceded
that q German device-the Elb formalde-
hyde briquettes-is best for this purpose.
Each fuse contains an ounce of formalde-
hyde. When a lighted match is applied it
burns, readily freeing the disinfectant,

There are many ways of using any cold
fish boiled or baked left over from the

pick a pound of fish into small pieces re-

last the beaten yolk of one egg and one
tablespoonful of chopped parsley. This is
particularly easy to cook in the chafing

stir the cream sauce into the fish, put it
into small fancy scallop dishes, sprinkle
with bread or cracker crumbs, put small

spectator, however, this is a very trifing

The alternative to a lace draped gown is
