AS GREAT PRODUCER
OF BIG ONIONS.

Local buyers are promised the benefit
of a lively war which is now beng
wage6 on the New York market be-
tween Texas and Bermuda. onions.
Already the effect of the competition
has made itself felt In Baltimore, and
is expected to record a reduction in
Washington's onion market before the
close of the present week.
From all indications. the Bermuda
Texas onion fight will be more severe
this season than In several years. It
has caused a reduction OF 80 cents in
the selling price of onions on the New
York market during the past two
duct can now be bought for sI25. Local
prices are above the New York quota
ton, but it is practically certain that
trey will not continue and that an i'm

MANY NOVEL STYLES
AMONG NEW STRAWS
Tulle, Flowers, and Feathers
Are Supported BY Much
Ribbons.

The new straws are trimmed with tulle
and flowers and feathers. supported by
bows and loops of ribbon.
A charming novelty Is the double os-
trich feather-the uncurled upper froads
of a more or less pronounced color, and
the Under part snowy white These
feathers are naturally put on the hats
upreared by the points of the stems snd
floating backward sufficiently above tke
low crown TO allow the white frolds
underneath 10 be as visible as the pink.
green, almond-colored or cerise upper
feather.
These double feathers always are
quite uncurled, and the fluffy soft effect
is very pretty.
Large gold and silver flowers are be-
ing put on many of the new straws;
bright gold, softened with Une fold of
white tule, was very effective on an
emerald-green straw shape.
Some of the hats have crowns of flow
ers with straw brirns.
A hat with a crown entirely OF violets
had pale mauve straw brim having
violet ribbon carried ar7oss II and COM
ing from each side OF the briIn; one end
passed under the chin and Joined to
the ribbon from the other side. perhaps
three inches above the shoulder, a
loose, large chou of the ribbon covering
the joining and the two ends hanging
below the shoulders.
This Is an extremely pretty model for
fresh young face. One In black
straw, with ostrich plumes and tips
about the crown, has the brim rolled
up a little in both the back and the
front.
In the back the coiffure was carried
out several inches in the present model.
