GREAT AMERICAN VINEYARDS.

1T will surprise most people, I am sure,
to know that there are invested in vine
States not less than $4,000, 0OO, said a
dealer in American wines. There are at
least 100000 acres of land in this country
planted in vineyards, Of which perhaps
that area, between 10000 and 10000 acres
are in raisin grapes. California alone
grows the raisin grape. OF the California
grapes seyen-eighths go to the wine
press, While of the grapes grown IN all
the rest of the Union three-fourths are
marketed for table use. The raisin-grow-
ing counties of California, four in num-
Der, will cure 1000 900 boxes of raisins this
year. which will be worth all of s3OOO,OOO.
The grapes grown in California for
ralslns are the Muscat of Alexandria and
the Muscat del Gardo Blanco. Besides
raiSinS, these counties produce most of
the Sherry and sweet wines that come
from California.
What may be called the dry wine belt
Of California is in the counties of Napa,
SOnoma, Santa Clara, Alameda and one
or two adjacent counties, covering an area
of fifty miles north, east and south of
San Francisco. Good dry wines are also
made in some of the counties in the Sac
ramento valley.
1.-THE grapes grown in California today
include all the varieties that have made
the vineyards of Europe famous, nclud-
ing the Cabernet, Sauvignon, Carbanet,
Franc. Malbeck, Tarnat, Merlot and ST
Laurent grapes from the Bordeaux dis
tricts of France; Martaros grapes from
the island of Palos; Semillons and Sau-
vignons from Sauterne; Pinot and Petit
Sirrah grapes from the Burgundy dis
tracts; Johannisbergers, Traminers and
Franken Rieslings from the stored
Rhine; Chasselas grapes from Alsace-L or
raine, and the rich Bergers from Moselle.
1t is from these numerous varieties of
grapes that the wines of California are
pressed

Blanche cosnac grapes are also largely

HAVE HIGH IDEALS
NORTH DAKOTA FEDERATION OF
WOMEN's CLUBS ENCOURAGE
EDUCATIONAL WORK
BETTER TRAINED TEACHERS
Women Are Urged to Exercise Their
Influence in EIecting Efficient
superintendent and
County Boards.

The North Dakota Federation of Wom-
ems clubs has sent to T h e GIL e an
announcement just issued by its commit
tee on education This announcement
pertains to the educational work of the
North Dakota clubs, and may be Of in
terest to Minnesota clubs that are work
ing along the same lines. The announce
ment is signed by Mrs. George A. Nc
falkland, of Valley City; Mrs. James Car
hart. of Mayville, and Mrs. ]. V. Brooks,
of Caddo.
1T is especially desirable,' says the
announcement, that clubs should adopt
some line of educational work which To-
cal conditions must to a certain extent
determine Women of this state have a
special privilege as well as responsibility
the opportunity to exercise suffrage and
to hold school offices. Clubs should en-
deavor to encourage women to exercise
these rights and to do all in their power
to elect good men and women to the Of
fees of county and state superintendent
and positions on town and city boards Of
education.
I'VE urge clubs in villages and districts
to persuade boards of education to raise
the standard of the village and district
schools by securing thoroughly trained
teachers, ample equipment anu COIulOI l.
able and thoroughly aesthetic buildings
'As individuals, the club women should
interest themselves in the teachers of
the public schools, giving them that rec
ognition which their calling deserves, and
welcoming them to their homes. They
should study school laws and conditions
and cooperate with teachers in all ways
to further the intellectual and moral en-
vironment of the schools.
CLUBS may do much toward cultivat-
ing the artistic nature of the child, by
gifts of pictures, casts and plants for
decorating the school room and by rec
ommending Improvements in buildings
and furnishings.
Let clubs make an effort to have
manual training and domestic economy
introduced into the schools. II one school
he equipped for such purpose through
the efforts of the club, it serves as an OBJ
ject to create a wider public sentiment
in favor of this valuable phase OF edu-
cation.
CLUBS cannot confer more lasting
benefits upon a community than by pro-
viding for reading rooms, travelling Il
braries, picture galleries, and by promot-
ing the establishment of public libraries.
Let a special effort be made to for
ward the cause of town and village i'm
provement This is an important as well
as an interesting phase of work of which
there is much need In our new Western
communities.
CLUBS should seek out young people O:
special talents and endeavor to secure
scholarships for such in our special
schools. We well know that our great
men and women of today have come

comb
Gordon purchased three combs before

again. At the end of the tussle Jonn
Alden lay snugly sleeping under warm
drapery high on a bookcase and Cor
don dressed his own torn and bleeding
hands and captured two live fieas on his
coatsleeve. He has since come to believe
that those insects flourish on strong
soapsuds for after this performance John
Alden did little but scratch and dig at
his poor, tormented skin. He lost his ap-

The greatest sage is still to rise;

The greatest song is still unsung,
The greatest day is still to dawn,
But, though the world is very young,

The highest dome is still implanted.

PRETTY THINGS TO WEAR.

A bewitching tea gown seen in a cur
rent play is of gray gauze over flesh,
colored satin, with Seml-httlng back ana
loose Empire front. Four rows OF lace
medallions are let in from the top to the
lower edge of the skirt, which is trimmed
with deep lace, incrusted with dull silver
scales. The sleeves are decidedly novel.
Two bands of the scales leave the shoul-'
derS and top arm visible and a long
mousQuetaire sleeve of gray chiffon is at
tached to the lower band.
1t would be difficult to find an evening
gown loVelier than one which was mace
of shaded pink chiffon, pale as a sea shell
at the waist, and deepening to a rose tint
at the foot. 1t was hung over pale pink
satin and tulle, and had billowy fiounces
of the deepest shade. A sash of the tulle
painted in a design of roses and scattered
leaves completed the c.loudlike effect.
Among the opera cloaks to be seen this
season will be beauty of heavy cream
satin, embroidered with gold, and having
a deep inserting of Italian flet lace.
Short and narrow bands of sable are APP
piled horizontally, at intervals from col
lar to hem, and underSleeveS of sable
show under the wide bell sleeves of satin
and lace.
Extremely striking was a gown seen
lately of red camels hair, with long
white hairs scattered over the surface so
thickly that the red seems frosted Each
seam opens over a narrow panel OF gull
pure lace, and a six-inch circular founce
was similarly headed. The basque was
Louis XIV, with collar and revers OF
guipure edged with sable, which also
trimmed the sleeves.
