From Our Regular Correspondent
New YORK, April 6, 1905.
A millinery shop window is now curious
sight; exaggerations of all kinds and ex-
quisite creations are so arranged that almost
startling contrasts are the result. A Ma
poleon shape in pink gossamer straw, with
an outline of tiny rose buds at back and
front, intended for very young person, is
next an immense black lace straw, with a
high crown, and two gorgeous ostrich
plumes. Then a large sailor hat, with
crown of the richest eolored silk and lace
brim, has for its neighbor jet toque with
white ostrich plume. A green straw,
trimmed with white hlacs, is near large
shape of Milan straw, the brim bent in
three curves, which are filed in with large
roses and foliage
Ostrich plumes were never more impor
tant, their graceful undGlations doing away
10 some extent with the absurdities Of hats,
designed to be conspicuous Velvet is also
factor in millinery, particularly in the
high back effects, where il is combined
with flowers Of several kinds. Large rOSes
are well adapted to shapes turning up at
one side, or forming the centre of fat
crown of flowers. The position of stylish
hats is varied Some tilt over the face,
especially the high back shapes, others
perch on the pompadour roll, then again
the large sailor is worn quite fat on the
head
That beautiful accessory, the parasol,
now comes with renewed beauty and varie-
ty. Myriads of plain silk Parasols, in diff
ferent styles, are suitable TO the shirt waist
suit; the novelty, however, Is the suit
case parasol, jointed in the handle, which
is certainly great convenience Checked
parasols, with lowered silk borders, are in
keeping with the present rage for checks,
and one style of elegant plain silk parasOls
have cut jet bead or steel bead handles,
some being finished with large knob.
The lingerie parasols, while aFording no
genuine protection, are very pretty, and
range from those Of simple muslin, edged
with embroidery or eyelet work, 10 the
hand embroidered one, with insertions Of
real Val lace. Tucked and embroidered
linen swell the category, and hand painting
or colored embroidery on each gore or in a
wreath around the parasol are usually a
beautiful blending Of delicate tints Gath
cred tueks of blue or pink chiffon, little
more than sn inch apart, form an entire
parasol, remarkable foe its softness and
beauty.

This handsome street costume, the Illus
tration which is supplied by The Demorest
Fashion Co., is Of brown shot mohair of
beautiful lustrous quality, with collar and
cuffs of cream-white suede cloth, edged
with brown mohair braid The belt is of
braid and the girdle of soft, messaline taft
feta in chameleon effect The skirt is Of
the popular nine-gored type, with the side
plaits arranged over each seam, and down
the centre of each gore.
Linen gowns and suits far from showing
the decline of favor prophesied on account
of the longevity Of its fashionable reign,
linen is to be the craze in gowns, waists,
suits, coats and embroideries The gowns
are of irresistible charm in their latest de-
velopment. Embroidery in heavy hand
work, open eyelet work, Irish crochet or
linen laces are used freely for their embell-
ishmeRt, and they are often as costly as
they are beautiful Linen etamine is one
of the latest varieties in shirt waist suit
style. Seen at recent opening was a
linen suit of the bluet-blue shade, now
called "Alice blue, with half-length
coat open in front and circular skirt.
The edges of the entire costume, including
the skirt, were and-scalloped with the
same color, and the sleeve, fronts of skirt
and front and back of coat were embroid-
cred in heavy hand-work of the same shade.

CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.
Amount Of Moisture Per Growth
of Corn Crop.

At the Wisconsin Experiment Station, it
has been found that it requires about $40
mounds of water to produce single pound of
dry matter. By figuring up the amount of
dry matter in an so acre field of corn, and
multiplying by $40, the pounds of water re-
ouired to produce the crop will be secured.
fhe result is astonishing.
1t does not seem possible that such an
enormous quantity of moisture can be secured
by the corn plants during the growing season;
and more important than all. this moisture in
most part is used during June, July and Au-
gust, the months of least rain fall in the year;
so it can easily be seen that the conservation
of the moisture in the soil is a most important
| problem, and one which must be investigated
| by the corn grower.
Conservation of Soil Moisture.
The Illinois station conducted exhaustive
| tests of the comparative amount of moisture
| consumed by the different methods of cultiva
| tion. Two things were found to be true
| First. that deep cultivation conserves sol
! moisture; and, second, that frequent cultiya-
ton couserves the moisture most effectively
! of all kinds of plans for cultivation. 1t was
| found that in the deep CIVILIZATIONS despite the
/ excess of moisture, the yield was very low
| compared with shallow culture. To find the
! cause of this, an extensive series of expert
ments with the pruning or cutting off the root
| of corn plant were conducted.
Effect of Root Pruning.
In this root pruning experiment field Of
| corn was selected, aud one row was root
pruned two inches deep. This root pruning
was done with broad, sharp spade. The
| spade was set down about six inches from the
! stalk of corn in the hill on every side of the
| hill. The spade was pushed down into the
| soil. and a guard allowed it to penetrate just
| to the depth planned for in the experiment.
| The whole field was cultivated with a weeder,
/ and all weeds not removed in this way were
| cut out BY hand. This was done so that the
rows Of corn would receive equal cultivation
/ ami be under like conditions. The pruning
was done three times in the season, AT about
the ordinary times Of cultivation. The second
row was not pruned. and the third row was
pruned four inches deep. The fourth row was
not pruued, aud the fifth row was pruned six
inches deep. This was repeated until large
field was treated in this manner.
The resulting yields were as follows, for
