linen costume this year, however, is
that, while the tailored lines run tc
the simplest, in the dress, it is nearly
always offset by an elaborate hat. This
may be in the form of floral turban
or something built up in the "nabob'
turban form, of masses of fancy fou
lard, or tuIle, with shot effects; or 1t
may take the form of a large, wide
crowned hat with huge bird upon It,
massed and yelled with tulle. This
shot effect has even invaded the field
of the linen itself, of which few ex-
amples have met my eye, though in
variably in very expensive weaves.-

STATE CROPS FAR
BELOW AVERAGE
Conditions Range From 52 to 70
Per Cent. of Normal.
DROUGHT DAMAGE SERIOUS
Enough Thrashing of Grain Has Been
Done to Show That the Yield of
Wheat, Rye and Barley Will
Be About Normal.

Madison.-Farm crops in Wisconsin
have been so badly damaged by the
lack of rain that their condition
ranges from 81 to 78 per cent. OF the
average for this time of the year, ac-
cording to the monthly report issued
by Secretary John M. True of the
state board of agriculture.
Unless a general rain comes soon,
the crop situation will become mucn
more serious, Secretary True believes.
His report is as follows, being based
on returns received.
There was no general rain during
the month of July. There were, how
ever, slight showers in most parts OF
the state that have saved growing
crops from complete destruction. Pas
lures have suffered most, and are now
furnishing little feed for stock, this
shortage being supplied by feeding Of
hay and grain feeds.
Enough thrashing of grain has been
done to show that the yield of wheat,
rye and barley will not fall far below
the norma yield. Oats, though mate
rally injured upon sandy or dry land,
will furnish better yield than was
anticipated on the last report.
Corn planted upon good, fertile
fields, and well cultivated, has shown
a remarkable degree of vitality, and
with a general rain now would make
fair crop.
Early potatoes are small, and the
yield is light. Later potatoes are al
ready suffering from want of rain,
and the crop will be materially short
ened even if rain comes soon.
Early planted tobacco is blossoming
without a desirable growth of leaf,
while the late planted is still small
and no. promising.
Sugar beets are doing fairly well,
though making slow growth
The following percentages of cOndi-
tiOn of crops is reported by CORE
spOndents:

Says SEEMING Will Not Destroy Carp.
Prof. George Wagner of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin, an acknowledged
expert on everything that relates to
fish life, states that in his opinion
ten years of SEEMING in the lakes OF
Madison would fail to make any ap-
probable difference in the supply Of
carp Capt. G. w. Rickeman, state
game warden, insists that constant
SEEMING soon will exterminate the
large carp and in time will reduce to
minimum the number of these fish
in the lakes and streams around Mad
ison. He also insists that the carp
do more harm to game fish than pos
sibly can be done by the use of large
seines. Prof Wagner, in polite way,
intimates that Mr.. Rickeman does not
know what he is talking about.
I'm my opinion you could seine
these lakes for the next ten years
and fail to make an appreciate i'm
PRESTON upon the number of carp"
declared Prof. Wagner.
I'm the majority of cases all the fish
that are caught in carp seine die of
injuries" declared the university ex-
pert. You can imagine how much
chance a game fish would have in a
drove of fighting carp. When single
scale is bruised fungus growth de-
velops and causes death. 1t does not
take much to tear the gill of a pick
erel or a pike and an injury of this
kind is almost certain to prove fatal.
Pickerel and pike are particularly
sensitive. Bass can stand little more"

From The Winslow Mail

A@Olo >NoN ONN c liIN w N'A Harry Sutherland at the Metho- dist parsonage in Winslow, Rev. NJ. F Ault performing the cere- mony, and Geo Klase and Mrs. Ault acting as witnesses.
 So secretly had the affair been planned that none save the prin. cipals had any knowledge that the event was to occur until it had transpired and the happy couple was ready for congratu- l2tiOns.
 William c. Code, brother O f the bride received a genuine sur prise when at a late hour that night he was acquainted with the fact that Dan Cupid had success fully executed a well planned coup in his family and he has hardly recovered from its effects From him 1t is learned that the prospective groom made a secret tri D to HolbroOk that day for the purpose of securing a Ii cence fo r his marriage. Miss Code attended the show at the : Opera House that evening ac- companied by Mr and Mrs. Vii liam Code. After a short while there she left the hallcomplaining of slight illness and the presump tiOn is that she lost no time from that moment until she arrived at the parsonage to join the wait ing groom.
 Mir. and Mrs. Sutherland have been well and favorably known in Winslow for some time and their many friends will extend to them an abundance of well wish es for their future happiness and prosperity.
 The new Mrs. Sutherland is a daughter of Joseph Code f O r many years a train dispatcher in the local office of the Santa Fe.
 Aftev a brief wedding trip the young couple will make Winslow their future home.
