The University of Wisconsin has
broken all its previous records for at
tendance. There are now 1920 students
enrolled and before the close of the pres
ent year a total of 5000 will have been
reached. The expected increase will
come from 300 agricultural students who
will enter early in December, and the
considerable number who will enter for
the second semester. The number of
students in the department of law and
engineering has decreased slightly on ac-
count of the more rigid requirements.

The Hen That Works.

The hen is naturally industrious, and
she should not be compelled to remain
idle by being cooped up in a dark,
filthy house with leaky roof and bare
floor. She should be encouraged to

for her. If it is impossible to have a

Despite the fact that the corn crop
is very large, market reports indicate
that it will not be sold at extremely
low prices, as was feared some time
back, when it was seen the crop would
likely be heavy. The intelligent and
up-tO-date farmer with a heavy crop
of Al corn can make it yield him good
returns by selecting the best of the
crop and putting it on the market at
the highest rates quoted and using the
proceeds to buy other grains which
will give him the needed balanced ra-
ton for his stock This is departing
somewhat from the general plan of
feeding whatever grain one has in
abundance, but it will pay. Moreover,
it will pay even to the point of re-
ducing the herd to just the number
that can be properly fed on well-bal-
anced ratiOns. 1t is not hard to use
the corn crop for feeding so that the
value of the milk produced is really
less than the value of the corn and
the manure, thus giving one a lot of
hard work and no profit On the other
hand, if one feeds just the number of
COWS he can feed on a balanced ration,
disposing of both the surplus COWS
and corn, he is money ahead at the end
of the season

The best plan is to have vines that

The honeysuckles, the American ivy
and most of the heavily wooded sorts
are hardy, or so nearly so that they
need only a mound of earth around
the base to carry them through severe

New European Horse Disease.

4NGN european uoTSC DASSdsC.
Consul General Guenther at Frank,

ment of a disease which has been
prevalent among horses in France
near the German line, known as con
tagious pernicious anemia." Prefes-
sors Vale and Care at Abort have
investigated this disease very thor
oughly and shown by experiments that
it is tranSmitable. 1t seems TO be
caused by minute bacill, which cannot
be distinguished at present even with
the most modern technical appliances.
The German fOreigl office called at
tentiOn to the disease by publishing a
notice in the newspapers cautioning
against purchasing horses from the in
fected districts of France, and the
Chancellor of the Empire has now is
sued a circular to the governments OF
those States Of Germany which are
likely to import German or Belgian
horses and has called attention to the
danger Of introducing the disease in
German territory.

1T was necessary that she do some-

ference in effect, and with these shapes
especially does it make all the dlt-
ference in the world. Seen in the show
case or held in the hand such hats
are ludicrous caricatures and alto
gether impossibilities. Perched on the
head at just the right angle they are
effective and becoming-that is, II they
are becoming at all. There are some
faces to which this style Of hat Is
absolutely impossible and makes the
wearer thereof look twenty years older
than she should-one reason, perhaps,
why that style of hat is not chosen
so rashly as many OF the others.
In midsummer it is generally sup
posed that the hats which are to be
found are great bargains. Undoubtedly
there are great bargains to be found by
careful inspection Of the showcases at
the milliner's, but there is also at this
time of year an immense amount of left
over material that it is just as well
to avoid. The altogether too eccen-
trio, that the general public has re-
fused to invest in, is to be had at
very low prices. but. although eccen-
tricity in millinery is one of the fads
of the times, there is the impossible
eccentric which should be avoided like
the plague and not bought simply be-

color shade deeper that the straw |
or il the hat be white then the feathers
are in some light, effective coloring |
that accords with the gown with which
it is worn. The all pink or blue hats
of this description are charmingly eff
fective with gowns Of the same color
Strangely enough, there are not many
all white hats this year made on these
lines, some touch OF color always being
introduced in flowers, feathers or
ribbon.
Lace and Lingerie Effects
White lace hats combined with lin
gerie are most beautiful, and the lin
gerie hats are very effective. Flowers
are used on these again and also rib
bon. Indeed, the fashion would seem
to dictate that simplicity must be
avoided at all odds, as there must be
at least two materials in any smart
headgear. Floral decorations Qt is inn
possible to call them anything else) of
all kinds are used to excess on the
midsummer hats, and while many of
the flowers are true to nature, there
are many extraordinary varieties of
flowers that would make it difficult for
any botanist to label them correctly.
Both large flowers and small ones
Los Angeles herald., 1905-07-30

touch of purple seems most harmo-
NOUS.
Best for Midsummer
A violet colored straw, trimmed with
masses of violets in different shad-
ings, has also a spray of large crimson
roses under the brim at the side and
one rose of the same on the top of the
hat. The shading and coloring of this
hat are most attractive, and although
in the description it sounds conspic-
uous, in reality it is not so, but is very
smart and becoming.
The fine straws are exceedingly fine
and tight In Weight. The fancy straws
are rather coarser and are supposed
to be rather heavy. The erin in all
shades is really the best material of
all for midsummer, the only trouble
being that so many milliners wire the
shapes too much, thus making them
heavy and stiff. In pale yellow and
white are some charming shapes in the
erin, trimmed with pink roses, which
look extremely summerlike and ef-
fective with the dainty muslin, chiffon
or silk gowns.
The shapes are without end in variety
and effect and the curious curved
angles that are obtained by the blend,
ing of the brim give marked indiv-
duality to each hat. Indeed, there
never was a year when there was so
much individuality in millinery. Given
the same shape to start with, the same
and yet no two hats appear the same.
Whether the hat is becoming to the
profile is now. fortunately, just as
much studied as whether the full face
or the back is becoming. This is one
reason for the individuality, for the
hats then appear suited to each and
every wearer, rather than like one of
a whole lot turned out on the same
mold.
Feathers are always fashionable, and
while for the moment the stiff wings
and the flowers are used in perhaps
greater quantity some of the most
beautiful hats of the season are often
trimmed with both long and short os-
trich plumes, arranged in the fashion
that has been popular for so long a
time-one long feather around the
crown, pompon at the side, and under
the brim at the left or back a cluster
of tips arranged to fall down on the
hair.
Such a hat as this is either of white
or some pale color. The tips are in
