are yoke skirts, too, but one sees less of
them in the severe tailor modes since the

The arrangement Of pockets in two OF

interesting. and it is in such details as
this that the clever tailor finds originality
even for his most conservative models.

Adulterated Seeds,

The wild garlic" which infests por- tions of Pennsy ylvania, Ohio and Indi- ana is a noxious plant first seen in Pennsylvania. \ farmer in Southern Indiana secured some seed wheat from the Ohio Valley and noticed the pres ence of the oTl1onlike pest in the re- sulting crop. He gave it no further thought as the entire infested plot might have been carried away in his hat" And yet within three years the wheat from that section of the coun- try was refused by all miliers because of the malodoroas garlic. the seeds of which are about the same size as large wheat grains In ertain localities land values have been Sereiy affected by the presence of this weed.
 Corn. aside ali farm seeds are open to adulterstiou and liable to carry weed seeds. Tn view of this. and in addition to it's laboratory operations. the government has been carving on an educational movement for the pur- pose of encouraging greater interest in the work. by means of lectures. and lantern slide demonstrations at farm CTS institutes Moreover hundreds of authentic sam pies of com mon weed and economic seeds labelled with their familiar and scientific names. have been distributed broadcast for refer ence. thus enabling the individua I farmer to famfliarize himself with pure seeds and their mpurities.-Phil- adelphia Press

A WILD STATEMENT.

Secretary MscVesgh, in his annual report takes notice Of the statement made by Senator Aldrich that ss00,- 900 ,0e0 could be saved if the business of the government was run upon bus- ness principles, and makes the fol- lowing comment upon this subject:
 When it IS the fact that the entire ordinary expenditures of the govern ment last yser were less than ssS9,- ooO. 900. and when great part of these expenditures is not rcducible at all as. for example, the interest on the debt and the pensions. one can readily see that there proBxbiy is not very much more than s3So. .ee1.0 gross left on which to save sSo9, ,000, ,oG9'
 It is evidently easier to criticise the management of the government than it is to economically administer national affairs The locality argument for ap- propriations as demonstrated in the bills for public buildings. in the river and harbor bills, and the navy yard budget, indicates how difficult it is to economize even where economy might be done.

THE HEROIC COAST GUARD.

There is no nobier service In this country than that of life saving squads on the coast Of this great re- pubhc In the thirty years since its organization it has to its credit 162. 000 lives saved and property totaliing Stse 900 900 in value.
 The Massachusetts coast guards have taken the brunt of the work, and a large proportion of the rescues have Desn made along ths Cape Cod coast where there have been about 1,1od wrscks. Deeds of the rsrest heroism are reco1nted Of the men of all sta tons and no hazard has been deem ed too great in tho performance of du- tles dangerous at all times.
 The New England cosst is a fruitful field for wrecks ana the past half century has witnessed some I4 900 dls- asters along these shores.
 It Is strange the justice of pension ing the men who are disabled in this service, and the women who have lost their husbands, has not been recog- mixed by the government. There arc no braver or more deserving men tC bs found anywhere than volunteers fol this work.
