as quickly as possible and without
any trouble at the polls. Automo-
biles bearing white flags with the
precinct and district numbers printed
in black letters are stationed at each
of the polls for the use of the anti

headquarters in the Waverley block
has been the scene of great activity
ever since seven o'clock this morning
as voters who would not go to the
polls any other way but in machines
were freely given rides to different
parts of the city to cast their votes.
One Hawaiian who had evidently,
put in a store of liquor, fear
ing that he would not get any more
until this evening, stated that he had
voted "yes" in spite of the fact that
he had been taken to his polling
booth in a machine from the "anti"

fourth polling booth, one man was
heard to say that the weather was
favorable for wet vote.

ALL KINDS OF TRIMMINGS.

This is the most difficult question
there is to answer in the lasiiion

AT the beginning of the season the
vogue of soutache braid was consld-
cred an absurdity. Never another
season of it, said fashion leaders
Pint here we are in the height or an
other and greater soutache season.

little braid with fancy weaves 10

Gold and silver trimmings are at
their height of popularity. And nc
one can deny that these are quite the
prettiest trimmings that have been III
vogue for many seasons. Even entire
tunics of beautiful evening gowns are
of gilt jet.
Oriental and art shaded embroid

SPOON MAKES PRETTY PRIZE
Perhaps the Best of the Trfles That
Can Be Offered at a Girls
Party.

AS prizes for girls party few
trifles are more acceptable than sill

bon sizes are spoons of sterling silver.
with slender handles enameled with
diamond, heart, spade or club, and
gilded bowls engraved with the host
ess' initials. A favorite spoon or
heavier weight has a handle or re-
pousse hammered silver, tipped with
the head of an American Indian wear
ing a war bonnet and a bowl engraved
with the name Of an aboriginal tribe.
There are also many attractive look
ing spoons showing flower patterns
developed in repousse work upon their
handles and with deliberately etched
gilded bowls.
Silver and porcelain are charmingly
combined in the spoons, which have
either plain or etched sterling bowls
and handles of Haviland, Dresden or
Delft. Occasionally this plan of COM
bination is reversed, and while the eff
feet is decidedly novel, the porcelain
bowls are liable to crack if employed
to stir a hot beverage, or TO snap when
used to serve confectionery.
Equally fragile, although dainty, are
the spoons having gold bowls and han
dies of silver filligree, and to be re-
garded solely as an interesting collec-
ton are the spoons which have bowls
of silver cut out work and handles OF
crystal or metal set with rhinestones
amethysts and pearls. Even more inn
practical, but nevertheless alluring
are the gold bowled spoons, which are
equipped with handles of mother Of
pearl decorated in floral design, done
in gold.

The seed was brushed in with brush
drag or harrow on the second tract
and upon the third a band OF sheep
was passed over the area in COM
pact body twice. This summer it has
been found that the area not treated

O. other two areas showed but little
vMation in density. but later, during
the period of drought, the seedlings
ON the area brushed over died out
badly, while on the area upon which
the sheep narrowed in the seed there
was very little loss.
Closer examination developed the
fact that the root systems of the seed
which had been tramped in were one
half to one inch deeper in the soil
than the root systems of the seed
which had been brushed in. this con-
dition being due to the fact that the

the cattle eating oak leaves.
In that section Of the country the
season has been unusually dry and
grass extremely scarce. To exc out
the scanty forage supply the cattle
have browsed heavily on the scrub
oak which covers large portions Of
the range. Ordinarily the stock does
not browse on the oak and the little
they do get. taken with the other
food, is not injurious. but when, as
in the present season, the oak browse
furnishes large proportion Of the
daily food of the cattle the results arc
serious.
The oak leaves and sprouts contain

strate that the grazing of sheep un-

The problem being studied is that
of restoring to depleted ranges their
