mer the silks will be a little holder or
figure. Many of the modI suits indicate
more trimming Than prevailed last year,
but except in this there is very little
change. On these suits, as ON shirt
waists, the use of needle work will be
general. Cross stitching is a form of
this ornamentation that win be much
favored. 1t is susceptible of a deal of
diversity in treatment and is likely to
appear everywhere.
To be in the height of the new fashion
you should suggest some old fashion, a
point that is potent in dressmaking and
in millinery, and that now is appearing
in the manner in which stylish women
dress their hair. For one thing there is
resort to all manner of ornaments. Aig-
rettes are many. Wee ostrich tips are
worked in, too. And gauze trifes aglint
with spangling are well up in the same
list. Then combs are varied as to shape
and size, and are made very ornamental.
with much show of gems. Sprigs or
flowers or foliage are available also for
those who like them. Coupled with
these ornaments are as numerous differ
ent styles of arranging the hair as in
genious dressers can devise. A few Of
these are pictured here. In the upper
row in the sketch are a couture in which
three pnffs in front are topped by vel
vet bow, a good arrangement for small
head; dressing in which gain Of height
is made, as the hair is kept off the fore
head and heaped on top of the head, and
what would pass as a severely classical
style. Below these are arrangements
suggestive respectively, of the innocent,
the stately and the coquettish. In the
first of these was the old-fashioned curl
in the neck, with beads and velvet for
ornaments. In the second was a pompa-
dour effect in front, and long comb was
placed lengthwise in back. The last ar
rangement was in more extensive POM
padeur form, the knot on the crown of
the head being almost hidden by the
wavings. This is a good dressing for the
head that hasn't much hair. With all

use of Mutton Is Growing.

Use OF Mutton As OroWAn&s
Mutton as human food is gaining
rapidly in popularity. Good authori-
ties Eredict that the time is rapidly
appro1 ching when as many sheep and
lambs will be slaughtered in this coun-
try as there are hogs and cattle
slaughtered now. History shows that
in old countries mutton is the poor
mans meat. because it can be raised
at less cost than any other. and also
that ii is the best and most wholesome.
Wool brings good price, mutton is in
demand. and the farm needs fertilizing,
Then why not every farmer grow
sheen. and those who feel so inclined
operate a sheep ranch? 1t is a paying
business.

Winter Feeding of Lambs.

Whatever may be the ration given
the lambs this winter, it must not be
forgotten that exercise is necessary to
their well-being. Don't turn them out
into the cold to shift for themselves,
but provide a place on the warm side
of the barn, protected fro1n wind and
containing a shed where they may go
when they will and where they may
be thoroughly protected from bad
weather.
While they are in the exercising
yard provide them with some roughage
TO pick over to keep them busy and
contented, and also see that they have
an opportunity to drink several times
during the day. If the weather will
not permit of this outdoor exercise,
then some place should be provided un-
der cover where the lambs will have
a chance TO stretch their legs. Try the
plan and you will find that it pays
well

Texas Itch or Mango.


Mango is caused by an itch mite
which inhabits the horse, ass, mule or
steer, and may migrate TO man, where
1t may thrive as we'll An old bulletin
or the Minnesota Experiment Station
says that, though very small, it can be
readily detected moving along the
scurf of an infected skin, if a strong
magnifying lens Is used. 1t forms
small galleries beneath the scurf skin,
In which it hides and multiplies. II
the hide of an infested horse is warmed
Oy the sun or In q warm stable, the
mite becomes very active, and is found
quite readily by those trained in such
work. Like all burrowing itch mites,
they cannot exist for a long time if re-
moved from their burrow and exposed
to the dry air; in moist places they can
exist, however. for many days, even
for many weeks. Horses invaded by
such parasites show their presence by
being restless, which is caused by their
lncessant itching about the head, name,
tail and back. Numerous open sores
and scabs make the presence of the
Itch mite very certain and plain. AS
remedy remove the scabs by the use
OF soapsuds and brush, and apply a
tea made OF boiling one and one-half
ounces of tobacco in one quart of wa
ter This application should be re-
peated after fifteen days to kill the
new brood that may have Matched in
the interval. Cleanliness in the stable
is another important factor, and if a
case of this disease has been found in
a stable. all blankets and rubbers
should be whitewashed with quicklime
containing one-fourth pound of chic
ride of lime to one gallon of water.

Seattle. April 27,-After he ha
broken his left leg In two places at tn
start of a balloon ascension at Madison
park, Joln Leonard, the aeronaut
made the flight. cut loose from hi
balloon and descended to the ground |
short distance from the starting point
He is now patient in the Monod hos
pital, where he will probably be laid
up for nearly two months. He suf-
fered compound fracture of his left
Ieg.
He talked freely of his experience
last night and censured the crowd COL
lected about the balloon for being the
cause Of the accident.
Leonard, who Is heralded as the
-Prince of the air. has agreed to make
son park. The ascension yesterday
was to have been the first. A large
crowd had collected about the balloon
before the attendants had started the
imitation process. The weather was
had, and for time Leonard believed
that the fiight would have to be post
poned. At $3.50 o'clock he decided
that he would make a short ascension,
and the work of filing the balloon
started.
a wind-break 80 feet high had been
built at oone side of the balloon, from
which direction the wind usually blew. !
Yesterday the wind was off the lake, !
however, and the wind-break was of
no use. Under ordinary conditions the
aeronaut would have cleared the break
but the crowd surged so close about
the big gas bag that it could not be +
inflated properly and did not soar
straight up, as it should.
At 4:30 o'clock the guy ropes were
cut loose and the big bag started up
wards, but swerved over in the direc-
tion of the wind-break. Prof. Lea
nard hangs 40 feet below the balloon
on trapeze, and he was hurled with
terrific force against the top of the
wall.
I'm hurt" he called, to his assist
ants below. but clung to his trapeze
and kept going upward.
The moments seemed hours to those
in the crowd below. They realized
that the areonaut had been injured, 7
and seriously, but wondered how he
managed to cling to the trapeze bar. q
Suddenly something dropped. The '
crowd watching the ascension believed
il to be the balloonist. Women shut S
their eyes and men looked with horror r
at the thing dropping through the air t
The object had dropped but a few
feet, however, when the parachute s

He told his friends what had happened

for a conveyance. The ambulance
was sent and on the way to the hos
pital Leonard smoked a cigarette and
talked Of his past life with the am
bulance attendant,
Il have been In the business for
about 90 years, said Leonard at the
hospital last night. "and this is the
second time l have ever been hurt
and the first time that anything
serious ever happened to me. The
only other time I was hurt was in
