fairs, an annual reunion or picnic
where all the people of the county

Come with the intention of having
real old-fashioned good time and

occasions, the modern version Of the
tailored blouse" is in good form for
general wear.
The fine cotton crepes embroidered
in white or colors are practical for
travelling, since they can be washed out
quickly and worn without ironing.
They can be bought in various color
ings, but the white blouse embroidered
in color to match the frock is first
favOrite.
A popular manner of trimming is to
carry the band of lace or embroidery
from the neck, in one piece, down the
shoulder line to the cuff. This has a
tendency to widen the shoulder line,
which will be noticeable ir the spring
models, those who know affirm 1T is
also whispered in the inner circles that
there will be a gradual return to the
short sleeve for lingerie waists which,
has been given up so reluctantly.

There are two articles of dress that
women have chung to stubbOrnly. One
is the short walking skirt, the other
the practical, convenient, separate
waist. Styles may come and styles may
go-the odd blouse seems destined to
go on forever. In spite of the preva-
lence of one-piece gowns, as long as
the street suit reigns we will loubt-
less have the separate waist and in
some other form long after. Though
the blouse of contrasting shade with
the skirt is now never worn by the
we'll dressed woman, the silk blouse
the color of the suit is absolutely ne
cessary to complete the costume.
These are being shown in all the
lighter weight silks, such as liberty
satin, massaline changeable taffeta'
satin finish crepe ride chine, satin
giace. etc. Sleeves have a decidedly
fuller tendency. and a description of
one of the sleeves seen on one of the
latest gowns will serve to illustrate the
type of sleeve we may expect to be
greatly used during the winter 1t is a
sleeve full enough at the top to be laid
in close side plaitS across the entire
arch of the shoulder seam. This full
ness is banded close to the arm some
four or, five inches below the shoulder.
From these down the sleeve becomes a
moderate size leg-O'-mutton pouf over
the elbow, and there enters into a
second band, either matching the up
same fabric. The upper plated full
ness ends under an arm band, while
the elbow pouf below has far less ma

Letter

NEW YORK, Sept 29-As the buy
ing comes before the making so must
a study of materials come before that
of styles. During a walk through some
of our most distinguished. shops last
week for news in this matter 1 found
for street costumes great number of
fine French serges already displayed
and many of the costumes now offered
both in the foreign and domestic
makes are of this very serviceable
material. Some years back serge had
g great vogue that lasted for a good
while. afterwards superseded by
hroadcloth. but it's wearing qualities
are too Well known to keep it long in
the background and it is one Of the
most promising materials shown this
autumn. The serges of today are fine
and soft and of the most beautiful Tex
ture and colors. Many broadcloths
are also shown, followed closely BY
cheviots and of the latter a number OF
attractive long coats are being offered
this season which are capable of great
individuality and the weaves and pat
terms are numberless, whereas tlia us
ual run of raincoat has much same
ness. Lady's cloth and satin cloth are
liked by many much better than broad
cloth and some of those shown this
week are very beautiful; these as well
as broadcloth are light of weight with
a beautiful finish which while not as
glossy as once have a luster surface
that gives great satisfaction when
made up. The plain and striped self
toned cheviots are used more and more
for the utility and business dress and
for travelling. in the blue or brown or
grey shades nothing is more suitable
For the house gown the new cash
meres de sole will be used. They are
most handsome. drape well and adapt
themselves easily to the styles of the
day. For indoor wear wolfe seems to
entirely hold it's own, though a voile
dress becomes an expensive one. as it
always requires a silk lining. A fine
cashmere may forego this. Among the
silks are the Tussahs. Ottoman Royals.

Tile Drains For Roads

come very soft and mirey. After they
once become soft in the winter they
will remain soft all through the win
ter and the following spring till late
the following summer. Evaporation Of
water at the surface of the ground is
slow in winter and spring, and the
water finding its way to these low
places i'm the roads keeps them soft
and difficult of travel for a very long
time. AS fast as the water evaporates
from the surface in such low places
more comes up to the surface from be-
low to keep it wet and no amount OF
grading or side draining seems to do
any appreciable good.
BY laying a tile drain under the
middle of the road in such low, wet
places, the seepage water is carried
away from below as fast as it comes,
and hence never reaches the surface
to make it wet and soft The surface,
of course. will be wet directly with
rains, but with proper grading and side
drains this water will be shed off and
quickly carried away with the result
that the low places tiled will dry out
and become passable as soon as the
higher places.
The first cost of tile draining a pub
lie road is not great. and when once
the drain is laid and the roadbed be-
comes settled, a good road is the re-
suit
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1909-09-29

With the exception Of pure sand,
the dry road is almost without eXcep-
ton a good road. Most of our roads are
good in summer and fall when the
ground is dry, but many of them are
very bad when winter, spring and wet
weather come. and they become satur-
ated with water with no chance to dry
out. The public road. too, like the
field, has its high and low places. The
highest places are more or less good
for the greater part of the year, but
when the low places becomes Wet
and soft and remain so for many
weeks or even months. at time, until
the surrounding ground becomes so
dry and evaporation at the surface so
great that the surplus water in the low
places of the road is absorbed and
carried away.
One of the best ways and one which
is comparatively cheap in the end. of
carrying away the surplus water from
low places in the public road is to lay
bed and provide a suitable outlet for
the drain. The drain of course should
be laid below the frost line. but deeper
than this is not necessary for effective
results. The size of the thing used
will depend upon the amount of water
to be carried away and the distance it
must be carried. For ordinary wet
places of only few rods in extent a
! three inch drain will be sufficient
For Very wet places where the water
must be led long distance for an out
