A grain containing % per cent. of
water will ferment and spoil in an efe.
vator or ships hold under unfavora-
BILE conditions, and. therefore, is dan
gerous grain to buy. Yet its kernels
are pretty sure to be plump, sound and
handsc ne, and to secure high grad
ing by the inspector, who judges chief
ly by appearances.
On the other hand, grain from a
dry country, which contains IL per
cent. or Whereabouts of moisture, is
not as handsome, as a rule, and will
be graded lower. Yet this grain when
put into a ship for voyage across the
ocean will absorb considerable per-
centage of moisture and will reach
it's destination looking fine, plump
and full, with an increase Of several
per cent. in weight.
The shipper actually stands to
make more money on certain grains
as a result of their absorption OF
moisture on voyage, than the cost OF
freight He could make money by
loading his grain on boat, giving ii
voyage for it's health and bringing
( it back to the first port for sale.
This is merely a suggestion Of the
inefi ciency of the present methods oil

FOR SMART FROCKS
HANDMADE TRIMMINGS EASY OF
EXECUTION.
Comparatively Small Expenditure o,
Time and Money Necessary to
Produce Results That Are
Most Effective.

Anyone who is clever at handwork
can make most effective trimmings for
smart frocks at a very small expendi-
ture of time and money, the little
drawings accompanying this article
showing some of the newest handmade
trimmings, which can be carried out
n various ways, and the result gives
a touch of individuality to any gown.
The first design illustrates a trim
ming which is being widely used on
the summer gowns. The sketch
shows how to gather this putting,
which can be made of ribbon, to be
used as an insertion between bands
that head ruffles, etc.
The marguerite in the second little
drawing is done in baby ribbon on
flet net. A row of these motifs gives
d charming effect This might be
made of silk ribbon, velvet or soft
braid.
Figure three Is lattice Of ribbon,

MILLION DOLLARS NEEDED
FOR GRAIN INSPECTION

THE indications are that the work
1 of the experimental laboratories
for the study of scientific grain in
spection and grading, recently estab-
lished in st. Louis, Minneapolis, Du-
luth and New York, will be carried on
next year on much more elaborate
scale than at present
The congressional appropriation for
the work this year is $4,000. Last
year $4,000 was considered sufficient.
1t is probable that next year Secretary
OF Agriculture Wilson will urge con-
gress to spend $1,O00,000 or more in
this important field.
The plan is to appoint general
commission to take general superyi-
sion of the entire business of deter
mining the grade and character OF
grain.
The smallness Of the appropriations
In the past have prevented the de-
partment from doing great deal OF
effective work. In fact, it is declared
by some of the experts on matters
pertaining to grains that the present
hit-or miss method OF inspection Is ut
terly worthless.
For instance, 1t Is pointed out, that
the most important factor In deter
mining the value and grade OF wheat
is the proportion Of moisture 1t con
tains. This runs all the way from l.

over Korea, Japan's interest In China,
as distinguished from the rights of
other powers, the Congo question and
matters of live interest In diplomatic
exchanges are the things the ambas-
sailors are expected to talk about.
A meeting of ambassadors will first
be held to arrange for more formal
meetings. At the first meeting the
ambassadors will be addressed either
by the president or by Secretary Root,
who will explain why they have been
called together. after that the presi-
dent will invite them to arrange for
further meetings.
So far as can now be seen, nothing
in the way of treaties will result.
There is no such intention. 1t Is to
be merely a getting together to ex-
change views and have an informal
understanding among the powers
about what they would do in certain
contingencies.
The greatest Of these contingencies
is the death or abdication of the en-
press dowager of China. When that
happens it is feared there will be-
trouble, either on account Of China's
jealousy of Japan or Chinese hatred
on the Manchu dynasty.

PRESIDENT TO HAVE PEACE
CONFERENCE OF HIS OWN

amount of work done or likely to be

conference at The Hague, so he is

delegates are to be the ambassadors
accredited to him by the several pow
ers. 1t is possible that ministers may
be taken in, but that is not settled.
Not many OF them represent nations
with a stick large enough to make
them factors in settling world prob
lens.
The underlying idea is that the am
bassadors, by means of informal talks
among themselves, will be able to
come to an understanding about ques-
tons in which are interested all the
big powers of value in settling dis
putes. Disarmament, limitation of
armament, new rules of war-the so
called larger questions which the con-
