farm and Orchard

i IN - t'A AAi :, Nt'tA ~ i>'tA t'C4 ' - H ion Is sending out circulars this week advertising for 5000 berry pickers.
 Mondays Kansas City Star re- ported two cars of Texas berries as having arrived on the market that day. The best grades sold at s5.50 to S4.00 per crate and the poorer quality at s2.5O to $500.
 C. W. Friends apple orchard just in the edge of town presents a most beautiful appearance. The tress are heavily laden with blooms and If a third of them produce fruit the trees will be un- able to support 1t.
 The first crate of strawberries to go from Crawford County this season was shipped Saturday from Alma It was consigned to Wichita. Kansas. The berries were grown by C. H. Bennett and the business men of..the town gave him premium of S2s. Report says prospects for a large yield of berries in the vicinity of Alma We're never better.
 A report from Van Buren Tuesday says: Strawberries are beginning to come iu lively and if the weather Is warm and bright carload shipments will be- gin before the eud of the week. The first crate was received Sum day afternoon and shipped to Ft. Smith. Yesterday a number of crates were received, one grower bringing in six crates. The chilly weather and rain Is delay ing ripening, but 1t is not expect ed to interfere more than day or two
 There was heavy coating of frost covering the earth Sunday morning, and some ice is also re- ported. So far as can be ascer- tained but little damage was done. although some strawberries were killed. Frost was also expected Sunday night and was only kept back by the clouds. The cold wave extended over quite a slope of country, in some places ae- companied by snow. Snow k reported is far south as Nashville, Tenn. The Springfield Republi- can says fruit in that section was uninjured.
 The canker worm which did so much damage to apple orchards last year Is almost entirely III iss- ing this year though a few of them are seen. Some ot the trees that were affected last year were en- tirely denuded of their foliage and looked as if they had been killed. They came out again however, and this season look as fresh and healthy as ever. J. Zimmerman, one of the largest orchardists in this section, was bothered considerably with this pest. He found that spraying with arsenic was the most effect i've means of getting rid of the m Mir. Zimmerman thinks the non. appearance of the cauker worm this season is due the cold winter and heavy rains last season.
 The Rogers Shippers Unior held largely attended meeting Saturday and by an almost unani, nous voted decided to become a member of the Ozark Fruit Grow. CTS Association and to take one share of stock. An amendment to the bylaws was adopted pro- hibiting member from buying and shipping berries with the Union except from some other member. The questsion of price for picking was also discussed at some length after which it was voted to pay the old price: 1z cents per quart, This is the only association Tn this section, we believe, that will not pay , cents

the head is covered. In the tropics spinal

In the two most innocent and whole

most serious dangers to young children
in midsummer. With a sudden rise in
temperature the mortality rate of in

is almost altogether owing to deteriora-

Natural Rose WoSn.

New York bellies have set the fashion
of wearing a single rose instead of a
nosegay The blossom is. of course,
the most perfect TO be found, and is
worn where it will produce the most ar
tistic or startling effect.
A favorite place for the. single rose is
directly in front at the point in the dec
ollettage A girlish effect is given by
wearing the rose just over the left
shoulder.
A school girl has adopted the fashion
of wearing the rose tucked coquettishly
under her hair. which she wears coiled
low.
The short girl has seized the oppor-
tunity of making herself appear taller
by using the rose at the top of her
head. where the hair is knotted.
A pretty effect is obtained by a bru-
nette who wears a deep red rose caught
in her collar. close TO her throat
Perhaps the least conventional wear
ing Of the rose was made q fad by one
OF the society leaders, who appeared
at the theater with a great pink bios
som directly in the middle of her back.
From the flower hung tulle streamers,
matching the tulle and chiffon iaca0

Many Il woman who is a slave to the

There the bath houses are built over
the water and a woman, clad only in
a light. single garment, steps down into
the waves and swims about as free as
the fish which play about her Of
course, when she swins in the company
of strangers she wears a little skirt

coast is done en- familie and the bath

The bathing costumes here described
are just as smart for Southern waters
as for those of the Atlantic coast, only
one need not be at such pains about
shoes, wraps and skirts.
Skirts which reach just 10 or below

shorter ones. and the pleated style is
much better than the gathered one be-
