1t is because of the Importance of
federal buildings in municipal better
ment and the growing demand for
higher standards in all public build
ings that an agitation has been started
for a federal art commission. This /,
intended to maintain the standard
made by the treasury department in
all departments so that Uncle sam
himself may continue to set the exam
pie in this most significant national
movement. AS a first step 1t Is pro
posed that hereafter all fcdcr'l arChi-
lecture shall be under the treasury de-
partmcnt, which has already shown
such marked ability In the designing
and placing of its buildings.
Frostburg mining journal., 1909-03-06

this plan has already been begun, but
it will take a generation for its com
pletion, even though every yeas makes
it more difficult and expensive
Washington is actually being built
on great and beautiful plan made
years ago by Major LEnfant and
which no one has since been able to
better. San Francisco would have
been a wonderful place if it had ac-
cepted the plans that were made for it
at the time of its reconstruction. but
the emergency and the difficulties We're
too great, and it has risen on its old
street lines and must now begin all
over again.
Cleveland has very fine group plan,
and it Is making ii Il reality very rap
idly indeed. In fact, Cleveland has
shown Itself the most progressive Of
American cities in this regard. and it
deserves to be and will be held up as Il
worthy example to its slower sisters
In Cleveland'S case, as in many 9th
crs, the plan began with the building
of n new pOStOtlice. The United States
treasury department IS doing more
than any other one body to promote
the cause of good architecture In
America. It's recently designed build
ings are recognized as Of the highest
standard, and the prospect of securing
one has become the incentive In each
community for making the most Of 1t
artistically and commercially instead
of hiding 1t on some unimportant side
street, as used often to be done in the
past A pOsto1iice handsOmer and bet

becomes naturally a center, and 1t
thus in the new understanding de-
mands Il central location with cOnyen-
lent approaches and nearness to the
heart of the business section. 1t fol-
lows naturally that this is also the
best location for the city hall, court
house and other public buildings and
that their convenience is enhanced by
their proximity to one another. Out Of
this grows group plan with such ad-

NEED OF A PARK.
Picture That Might Be Painted of Any
Small Town.

Small Town.
l. d. bort of Flint, Mich. has writ
ten for the newspapers of Flint three
column letter pleading for the eXecu-
ton by the town Of the park and
boulevard plans that have been out
lined by Warren II. Manning. Outside
Flint the interest of the latter is only
in those arguments which have general
application. OF them the following
which seldom has been so we'll OK
pressed, is Significant:
He is telling how the people woke to
the need of parks, realizing that for
all the river land It's beautiful shore
lines, both above and below the city,
for boating, camping and other recrea-
tion purposes" hundreds, not to say
thousands, of persons during the sum
mcr months, because there was no
community utilization of the opportu-
mites, poured out Of the city by train
trolley and such other means as could
be employed to seek rest and recrca-
tiOn in the fields or woods or by the
side of lake and stream" and that for
the same reason Hundreds Of others
perhaps on Sunday morning or after
noon might be seen standing about on
our business streets very often and
with very good reason bitterly com
planning of the city's almost utter lack
of suitable public resting and recrea-
tiOn grounds"
This is a picture that might be paint
ed of many Il small town and city
where parks would be no expensive
business and yet where their establish
mcnt would mean for the people a
more wholesome physical and social
life

Small Trees For City Streets.

John Davcy of Kent, O., known all
over the United States as a high au-
thority on tree culture delivered an
interesting lecture some time ago at the
new Avondale (OD school under the
auspices Of the Avondale Improvement
association. Many more trees, he said,
are deformed or killed by cutting and
trimming than by letting nature alone
govern their form and growth. Mr..
Davey advised the planting of small
trees instead of the larger varieties
that eventually interfere with overhead
wires and have to be either trimmed to
I'm unsightly appearance or entirely cut
down.

WRAPS LIKE DOMINOS.

To seeAa group of fashionable girls
In their outer wraps one would think
a domino party was in progress.
Black, white and gray are the only
hues now permitted for the modish
evening wrap. Big roomy affairs,
easy to slip on without damaging the
tulle ball gown, is what the up-to-
date girl wants in an evening wrap.
Grace of outline or dantiness of de-
tail is ruled out for comfort and
room. The most popular evening
wrap of the season is made of heavy
cloth, frequently beaver, with soft
silk or satin interlining. Countess
Alexandra Won Bernstorf, daughter of
the German Ambassador in Wash
ington, wears an evening coat that
looks like military cape with sleeves
and hood. 1t is of elder down, lined
with. blue and looks warm. Mrs.
Payne Whitney wears an evening
wrap that resembles mans bath
robe, only that the cord around the
waist is of gold and there is gold
stitching on the collar.-New York

FAD IN FANCY WORK.

Some sorts of embroidery require
practice, no doubt, but there is one
variety that can be done by the ver-
lest novice. 1t is called darning on
crash, and it ought to be popular,
since crash is so much used now for
curtains, cushion covers, table run
rers, work bags and thousand and
one articles Of service or of ornament.
Darning on crash is just like darn
ing stockings; you stick your needle
In, and go back and forth, back and
forth. AS the threads of the crash
are so coarse, it is better to have your
stitches run parallel with these, so
that the embroidery will look more
or less like a part of the warp and
woof.
The D. ,1gn, for novice at least,
should be stamped, and may be any
thing one pleases-conventio
tulips across the end of table run
ner, or, better, one of those old
Egyptian or Assyrian designs. Flow
er patterns should be much conven-
tionalized. Nothing is so painful as
an attempt to represent flowers on
some fabric-especially coarse fab
ric. The embroidered flowers don't
look like real flowers; they don't look

COW RATIONS.

Hoards Dairyman, referring to COW
rations, says, feed cows weighing 1 900
pounds thirty-five pounds of silage
per day and all the timothy and clo-
yer hay they will consume. Then
make mixture of 400 pounds of
bran, 400 pounds Of ground oats, 200
pounds of cottonseed meal and 100
pounds of oil meal. AS rule one
pound of this combination would be
about right for each three pounds of
milk produced, but to feed fifteen to
eighteen pounds of this mixture per
day, the amount required for COW
giving sixty pounds of milk would be
an exceedingly large allowance Of
concentrates, and but few animals will
handle this amount to advantage.
When more than twelve pounds Of
grain are fed per day to an individual,
care must be exercised, or there Is
danger of injuring the animal by over
feeding.

very dainty is wanted, and it can be
made from gingham and other mex
pensive wash fabrics for the hours Of
play and hard usage. Also 1t is quite
correct for cashmere, albatross, chal-
lis and the other simple wool ma
terials that many mothers use for the
cold weather frocks of the girls who
have reached the mature age of six.
The dress itself is tucked to form the
yoke, and consequently making is
very simple matter and the sleeves
can be in full or elbow length, while
the dress can be trimmed with band
ing or left plain, as liked.
The dress Is cut with front and
back portions and is finished at the
neck with straight standing collar.
Whether the sleeves are cut to the
wrists or the elbows they are gath
cred into bands.
The quantity of material required
for the medium size (four years) is
three and one-fourth yards twenty
four, two and one-fourth yards thir-
ty-two or two and one-eighth yards
forty-four inches wide, with three
yards of insertion, one and three
eighth yards of edging to trim as IL

sUFFRAGIsTs DOING WELL.

Women of Belgium were slow in
getting interested in the fight for
equal suffrage, but now that they
have started they are taking steps
that promise a quiet revolution in
political affairs in the little kingdom.
The first big victory has been the pas
sage Of bill that not only permits
women to vote for the election of
municipal officials, but requires that
certain proportion of the municipal
officials shall be women. This is a
gain more substantial than the noisy
English suffragettes have won in their
long and violent campaign. The Bel
gian women have been careful to
avoid all suggestion of strenuous
methods, relying only on petition
and the forceful presentation of ar
gument. 1t seems the English suf-
fragist might profit by taking leaf
from the book of her Belgian sister,
and that the American zealot also
might go to Belgium for good ex-
ample.-New York Press.

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
CROP CONDITIONS ARE GOOD
Indications Of Activity General, All
Depending on Tariff Outcome.

weather conditions continue irreg-
ular, but change for the better has
occurred in staple crop conditions,
and retail business is slightly improv-
ed, though disappointing and showing
evidences Of the repression hereto
fore evident. Recorder business from
jobbers and wholesalers has been
rather quiet, but there is, II any
thing, a more assured optimism per-
meating the reports as to the outlook
for next fall and winters trade. Best
reports are to retail trade come from
the upper part Of the great central
valley and its tributaries. Colder
wet weather has dnterfered with busi-
ness in parts of New England and the
middle Atlantic States, and trade
seems slow to improve In San Fran
cisco and in parts Of the Pacific North
west At wholesale, preparations
for good trade later on are found
In number of lines. The leather
situation as whole is very strong.
Reductions In prices of printed cot
ton goods have induced the booking
Of large orders. Building is active,
though lumber demand seems to drag.
All these indications of activity have
to do with future trade, the expecta-
ton being that the removal of tariff
uncertainty will give an impetus to
general business. Retail trade, though
better than year ago, has been on
the whole disappointing, causes as
signed for this being weather condl-
tions and the high prices asked for
goods when compared with the re-
duced purchasing power of the gener-
ri public.
Domestic wool has been strong

Four-Piece Skirt.

The skirt that provides slight flare
at the lower edge is one of the very
latest to have appeared, and this
model shows that feature at its best.
1t is slightly high waisted and close
fitting over the hips, and the pleated
panels give long, becoming lines at
the same time that they provide ad-
ditional fulness. Pongee with trim
ming of buttons and finish of stitch-
ing is the material Illustrated. When
made in round length the skirt Is
adapted to afternoon dress, when
made in walking length for general

The skirt is made In four cores
with four additional panels. The side

Joined to their edges. The closing is

HER REAL sUsPENDERs.

Might have known 1t. When,
years ago, women began wearing
mock suspenders in the form Of cloth
straps sewn to their shirt waists it
was foregone conclusion that soon
or late they'd come to the real arti-
Gle. And now it's come. Suspend
ers, of silk of course, are indispensa-
BILE to the late summer wardrobe of
the fashionable girl. They are not
visible. as were the straps that pre-
ceded them, save through the liber-
ality Of the peekaboo waist. They
are worn under the waistband and,
by an ingenious contrivance fastened
80 the waistband Of the skirt. Natu-
rally, being of the eternal feminine,
they come in myriad designs, and
all are dainty. They range the scale
of colors and each hue comes in all
its prettier shades. Gold and silver
buckles are attached to the feminine
suspenders, each with tiny diamond
or ruby or sapphire set in the exact
centre. Maybe before long the more
daring women will wear them outside
their waists. After the sheath skirt,
anything may happen. - New York
