kImono Of Bright Red a Smart and
Novel Garment-Pretty Hood for
Small Chlldren-veils of the Mo-
mentor the Housekeeper.
Wells Of the Moment.

The newest veil is called the Mel
ba," and looks more like an exquisite
lace flounce than a veil. 1t is deep
and wide and circular, and made most
ly Of Chantilly lace, with its fiat. silky
mesh and graceful patterns.
Some of them have the pattern of
the edge repeated, in a smaller way,
at the top of the %flounce, just where
1t lies owe the brim of the hat.
Clinton veils-some of them-have
scalloped edges and are appliqued
with small velvet daisies. But their
charm is the way they pull up on a
drawing string and tie snugly around
or over the crown.
Some of the prettiest automobile
wells are double-a medium shade,
with a lighter shade over it, and join
ed together at the top.
Anoher double veil has the inner veil
embroidered in large dots and shirred
up to fit somewhat under the chin,
while the outer veil flows free.
A curious trick-it's new, tools to
have the wells made of changeable
stuffs. The second color doesn't show
definitely, but gives a little simmer
ing beauty note that is fascinating.

Gently been presented to the Odessa
Technical society. Under a wagon
drawn by horses or run by an alcohol
motor there is placed a small dynamo.
This dynamo is moved by a system of
gearing placed on the axle of the We

with an induction coil in front of
which is placed a Wehnelt Interrupt

ton coil is connected with the iron
framework of the vehicle, hat is con-
nected with a series of metallic
brooms placed behind and under the
wagon. These brooms may be moved
in a vertical direction, and as they
give forth a large shower of sparks,
any insect within the range of the
broom is destroyed. The wagon should
follow Immediately behind the pillow,
as the latter, by opening the earth,
brings to light insects and larvae.

mined moment by attachment to an
alarm clock and fed into a trough or
manger.
A chute, through which the food is
to be passed, is shown in the illustra-
ton, with "a hinged door at right an
giles to the inner wall thereof, the door
being connected with an arm which
projects through the wall of the chute.
This arm is fastened to a spring held
to a pin in the outer wall of the chute.
A bracket supports a clock upon the
other side of the chute, the clock hav-
ing an alarm attachment. The key
which winds the alarm apparatus Is
connected to a spring pressed bolt
which is mounted in the wall of the
chute and designed to support the
hinged DOR when the same is weight
ed down with food. AS the clock runs
down the cord withdraws the bolt and
when the proper time is reached the
door is released and the food falls
down to the hanger After the door
is relieved of its weight the spring
will cause it to resume it's normal po-
sition. This would also be very useful
in large establishments.

Cinuerie BIouses,

Lingerie blouses are to be worn the
winter through with tailored coats and
skirts. They are really indispensable,
for they are thin, taking up no room,
and when mussed water and a hot iron
restore them to an immaculate cond1,
ton. They are, however, as expensive
as the more elaborate silk and crepe
bodices, as a greater number of them
are required; but they are always
fresh and spotless, and thus delight
the dainty woman. In cut they are al
most facsimiles of those worn during
the summer, save that heavier laces
are used, cluny, guipure and the lately
revived crepon being favorites. These
laces are used as insertion rather thar
in appliQues, and In many Of these
blouses the lace Is also deliberately en-
broidered in floral designs in plumetis
stitch. One such blouse has it's crepon
lace embroidered across the front in
chrysanthemums.

Putting ground coffee to steep in
cold water the night before will be
found to result in economy and rich
ness of flavor for the breakfast bever-
age. Enough coffee should be used
to allow one tablespoonful for every
cup and an extra one for the pot.
Sugar should be bought in small
quantities as it dies and loses flavor
If kept; ~raisins, currants and candied
peel will not keep long. Vinegar roon
loses it's flavor If kept, and SO does
Lucca oil. Macaroni will not keep, and
spice, pepper and roasted coffee, too,
soon deteriorate.

Feeder for Stock,

One of the disagreeable tasks in re-
lation to the care of horses, cows or
other cattle is the necessity of arising
early and supplying them with feed.
This is especially true with milk deal
ers, bakers and many others who are
compelled to get up an hour or two
before serving their route in order to
feed their horses. This is also the
case on Sundays with all drivers of
teams. Automatic time stock feeders
are not new to the trades, by any
means, but few are as simple as the
one shown in the illustration. This
Is so constructed that the feed may be

Pleasing Styles in Coats.

The short basque coats and coats Of
moderate hip length will be found
more generally becoming than the red
ingotes, and while not so new, are
quite as fashionable. The short basque
coats are, of course, fitted snugly at
the waist and often belted or girdled;
but though the general tendency is
toward the o a fitted closely at back
and sides If not in front, the sack coat
has not disappeared and loosely fall
ing coat models are numerous.

Charming New Collar.

Here's the dearest little new collar
just out-meant for a light silk blouse.
It's not more than two or three inches
deep and fits just around the turn
of the throat. But the way it's made
refuses to be set down in cold black
and white letters. 1t is frills and fluff
and tiny hints of roses and bits of
the sheerest laces Joined together like
fairy work.

The best time to transplant apple
trees Is early in the spring, as soon
as the soil is dry enough. | fear, how
ever, that to transplant apple trees
which have been bearing for four
years would not be a very successful
undertaking and 1 would not advise

leave the trees where they are, even

about them for something else, and TO

for these bearing ones. If, however, II
Is determined to transplant the trees
at any cost, the work should be very
carefully done and as many roots as
possible kept on. The trees should be
headed back severely, at least two
years growth being taken off all

Rhubarb may be transplanted at
any time after the leaves die down in

small roots being thrown above the

ground this fall by blowing under well

out trenches four feet apart. Fill the
trenches to within six inches of the
