Field and Farm. So far as
the western range cattle are con
cerned it is evident that the bulk
OF the seasons snpply has been
marketed from the northwest al
though Colorado breeders have
barely begun shipping yet. Recent
reports from the northern ranges
indicate that seventy-iive per cent
Of the cattle have been shipped out
of Montana and Wyoming but many
are yet to 20 out from the Dakotas
As rule the farmer ranchmsn pre-
fer 10 wait till the bulk OF the sup
ply is in when naturally composition
is less for them and thus is the rea-
son our Colorado people have been
holding off with their shipments as
is their custom. Besides. they have
more time 10 get their stock in good
marketable condition Shipments
from the small ranchmen promise to
be large in the aggregate and they
will be strlnging into market till
cold weather cuts them of Our
people are now marketing their
feeders mostly at Denver and the
river and seldom get So far awav as
Chicago.

Talking with an experienced stock
feeder this week, he remarked that
he believed it paid best to ship from
the roundup or feed until after
Christmas. No half way measures
Also his experience WAS that rattle
did not put on much flesh during
winter feeding The cold weather
compelled them to burn most of the
feed as fuel in keeping warm. How
ever, prices are usually better after
the holidays and the quality Of the
beef steadily improves 40 that it WAS
often paying proposition to feed
although not a pound Of weight was
gained. OF course young stock will
gain in weight, but not older stock

are light gray, light brown hair; my face is large;
weight Is 100 pounds, and short wasted. What other
color would be albright for me9 Mrs. B.
Sibley, Iowa.
The sample Of black grenadine will require silk
lining and while these thin materials call for rather
fussy treatment in their development, palmer styles
will be becoming to you I should have five

narrow front width, the latter outlined by a band
of black lace Add medium width founce to the
lower edge Except front width) with band Of lace
and finish the founce with hem and few
tucks. On the bodice have collar and yoke Of
baby Irish lace met by band Of the black lace.
Pintuck to this the lower portion Of bodice and
strips of lace over the bust to meet those the
skirt and third down the center 'front.'
Have fairly full sleeves brought in as puffs to
elbow deep cuffs being formed with the black lace
and strips Of the grenadine pintueked alternating.
The white lace yoke should be lined with ivory

narrow ribbon belt.

line, tapering, then to the skirt in smaller loops
the skirt. This braid is very effective, frightening
in way that few trimmings will. There is no better
combination for salow skins than rich deep blue
ieved by rich red and lace about the face and
should like to suggest colarless neck finished with
handsome lace banding either threaded laid
over rich red velvet ribbon cutting off the sleeves
in three-quarter length, and giving them similar
fnish but am afraid this would clash with the pale
pink roses in the hat. Would dull old
for the threading instead Of the red9 Unless the blue
is very 'royal' in shade think it should look well,
could you the pink roses for another hat and
trim with red fowersf I think should turn up the
hat into becoming curves, hats much
smaller this season. and trim with malines and peoples
scarlet geranum that is if you decide the old
will not accord with the blue
think the red crepe de chine might be made to
see more service. The full skirt Is correct, and
should trim it around the bottom with three Of
satin ribbon in graduated widths just shade darker
than the Dress With odd pieces, make fitted belt
above the waist line, that this with the hip yoke
suggests a corsage, then trim it with several
Of ribbon equal distances apart. Cover the
plain yoke in similar way and, releasing the tucks
the sleeve tops bring into deep band cuffs at elbow
trimming with Of ribbon and the result will be
a smart, up-todate, and most useful gown. Black
ribbon may be used, if liked better.
Certainly, you may come as often as you think
can help you II you will fully describe the shape Of
your face and features will try and suggest hair
