bee Culture an Industry.

Fruit culture and bee culture have
both been recommended to the dis
tressed British agriculturist; and per-
haps the advice has sometimes been
3upererogatory. 1t is permissible, how
ever. to draw attention to the way in
which the honey industry has advanced
in France during the last few years. In
ten years the output of honey has in
creased from 1000, 900 each grammes to
$500, 900 kilogrammes. The increase is
due less to an increase in the number OF
hives than to the greater yield of each
hive, which has now risen to about SOC
grammes, or eleven pounds a hive.
What is more gratifying Ito the French
producer) is that, owing to the scien-
tifc methods of bee farming, the yield
each year has become more constant
and less affected by vicissitudes.-Illus

M FASHIONS.
Pretty Bits of Finery That Ga to Make
Up the Seasons Smart
Costumes.

A favorite model for silk pe~tticoats
has a deep fiounce of ~sun-plaited silk,
panels of the plating being separated
by panels of hairline tucks. The bot
tom of the founce is finished with a
pinked-out ruching. This kind of a
hounce in walking length gives the
outer skirt a good flare at the ankles.
For cool summer evenings there are
pretty knitted shawls, shaped to the
shoulders, and they are seen in all light
and pastel shades. says the New York
Post.
There is a difference between the
winter and summer dinner dress. The
Thin dinner gown is rarely cut low. 1t
may be slightly at the neck, but is not
a decollete gown in any sense. This is
true everywhere except at the most
fashionable summer places, Newport,
for example. where no difference is
made in the conduct of life, winter and
summer.
Hats of printed straw are reported
from Paris. The straw is fine and white,
resembling Panama, and on crown and
brim are printed designs in black,
brown, blue or red. A very narrow
ribbon matching the design in color
encircles the crown. These hats are
for yachting and other outdoor sports.
The old-fashioned dotted veilings,
SO bad for the eyes, the oculists say,
are again enjoying favor. They are said
to be the wells which will be most worm
in the autumn. Black and white veil
ings have gone out almost altogether.
Colored chiffon wells are also going.
The only colors called for to any great
extent are dark green, blue and brown.
Hardly anyone wears the pink and pale
blue wells seen early in the spring.
The tub hat is one of the seasons
novelties. 1t is made of allOver en-
proidery, the openwork English designs
being preferred. A pretty one is made
over a wide, round shape, the crown be-
ing fulled on, and the brim made of a
ruffie of the embroidery very slightly
fulled. This droops over the edge of
the shape. A wide ribbon scarf of pink
liberty silk is tied in front in large
loops.
White-dotted net is the material used
in a simple but extremely pretty gown.
The full skirt is shirred at the top, and
has a simulated yoke of lace banding
which encircles the hips and falls in
two long lines to the bottom of the skirt.
Two rows of rather large medallions
are inset on the skirt, which is finished
with a ruching of the net. The waist
has a deep collar yoke of lace and a row
of the lace medallions some distance
below the bottom of the yoke. The
sleeves are shirred at the top and fall
full and unconfined to the wrists. A
wide crush girdle of bgrnt orange velvet
is an agreeable finish.
A black-dotted net over a pale blue
taffeta slip has a full skirt confined at
the top by two wide bands of black lace.
A round yoke of the lace forms the top
of the bodice and overs the shoulder
caps. Rows of narrow velvet ribbon are
over the lace. More velvet ribbon is
seen on the lower part of the bodice
and the elbow rufles which make the
sleeves. A sash of very wide velvet rib
bon has long ends.
