with brown sugar, soap will bring

FASHION AND FAD
BY Mrs. Maud E. cilIey.

Skirts are fuller without being volum-
inous.
Lingerie gowns are taking on touches
of bright color.
Sleeves generally arc still close fit
ting and quite long.
Kimono sleeves remain quite fash
ionable for elaborate gowns.
Colored embroidery on white is one
of the fads of the season.
A huge bow at the back is the sole
trimming on some Of the new turbans
Coat Of mail sleeves are coming in
for evening gowns, supple and race
full.
Present fashion demands that the
figure be kept in slender lines about
the hips.
The envelope flap is in evidence and
is not an unattractive trimming below
the waist.
Some of the handsome new sweaters
are of white, with large sailor collar
and cuffs in color.
A noticeable feature OF the seasons
blouses is the tendency to simulate a
side-front closing.
Suede, patent leather and natural kid
belts are in high style with silk, wool
and linen costumes.
Long skirts are worn for afternoon
and evening, but even at such times
many women wear short skirts.
A unique and most effective trim
ming for a gown is made Of shirrings
of satin over colored satin rattail.
The shawl-shaped collar, cut pretty
narrow, is quite prominent, being faced
with satin, moire and even velvet.
Coat lengths vary a good bit, though
most of them are below the hip depth,
and number have novel vest ef-
/ fects.
Rather striking are the long evening
gloves of white suede with the back
stitching of the seams done in black
/ The Chantecler belt pin may be in
/ gilt or silver with the rooster held il
gold and red. The head is in hall
relief
l. Coat lengths are bit shorter, vary
ing from s2 inches TO the half length
which is usually that OF the Russian
blouse.
There has been a tendency to rais'
the waist line a trihe. but It is hare
to tell if it will become general.
Buttons are not now used in grea
numbers. and are always selected witt
great care TO guard against undu
prominence.
Purses Of Chantecler suede are still
further suggestive of Rostand's pla
because Of the rooster etched into tn
leather.
Draped effects and overskirts in som
form are so marked a feature Of th
gown of the day that their absence

As result OF extensive experiments
which he has made Professor Boney Of
the North Dakota experiment station
presents the view that fax does not do
well after fax, not because of an
exhaustion of the fertilizing elements
OF the soil, but as a result of the de-
velopment in the soil Of root rots and
ether blight producing funguses. which
attack the plants and greatly reduce
their vitality. He holds that the same
conditions apply to spring wheat and
some other small grains. His remedy
for this situation is the planting Of
the seed of blight resistant varieties
Of fax and grain. the formalin treat
ment Of seed and a rotation of crops,
which will prevent the several fun
guses from getting a foothold in the
soil.

AII Should Kn0w When . be slIsnI

All Should Know When to be Silent.
1t requires tact and judgment. as is
well known. to decide when it is best
TO talk and when TO listen.
In the presence of men and women
of superior talents and accomplish
ments. or OF wide experience of the
world we must be wary and not let
our vanity run away with us. To
such persons we may not be able 10
afford intellectual stimulus, and there
fore. it viii be we'll TO avoid giving our
opinions at length, unless these are
called for.
With men and women Of small talent
and accomplishment we must also be
on our guard lest they find us didatic
and wearisome. 1t is with our intel
lectual equals, or with persons of a
generous disposition who like to draw
out the talents of others, that we feel
the greatest freedom and attain the
happiest results.

In sections where clover and alfalfa
are the chief forage crops many horses
are lost annually as a result of the
feeding of a ration too rich in protein.
and the loss is especially heavy during
the winter months. when the animals
are taking the least exercise. A par

lies in substituting for a good share
Of the leguminous ration clean, bright

Nothing is thought OF paying from
s. 70 $3.50 for enough oats or other
sn 7rain to plant an acre, yet many
a fellow will balk at paying more than
81 bushel for seed corn. This seems
a bit inconsistent, for at the unusual
price Of $40, a figure which prevails
in some sections Of the corn belt this
season, the cost OF seed for each acre
would be but S1.25 ON the assumption
that a bushel will seed eight acres. In
determining how much a fellow can
afford to pay for his seed corn this
spring it is well for one to keep these
figures in mind.

Little Embroidery on Seasons skirts

Little Embroidery on Seasons Skirts
There is little embroidery used on
any of the skirts this year. for they
require little. If any, elaboration.
On the waists of the gowns, however
embroidery and lace and trimmings OF
all kinds run riot.
The so-called jumper bodices, wheth-
er in cloth. silk, linen. or rajah. are
embroidered or braided in gold and
silver. the latter being employed ir
a number of he handsome cloth cos
tunes.
Silk and rajah are both worked in
one or more tones Of embroidery silk
while the linens are kept on the one
shade.

Goods Combined in New Fashion.

Goods Combined in New Fashion.
A new idea where two plain goods
are combined in a costume is to make
a simple bodice just filled in to the
belt. half Of one and half of the other,
the line of division running straight
across the bust. and the same height
across the sleeves.
Then there is the bolero effect given
by three pleats curving away from the
bust under the arms combined with a
fiat panel running from the shoulders
down into the skirt.
The whole will sometimes be belted
round, but a more stylish arrangement
is obtained with two short straps COM
ing from under the pleat at the back
and fastened down by buttons.
The bloused front is merely held in
by the skirt stitched in few darts to
make it set properly.

: Charged with contributing to the
delinquency of q minor, M. H.
Smith, better known as "Hambur.
ber'' Smith, was arrested last night
and is now in the city jail.
It is charged by the police that
Smith has been instrumental in the
downfall of 14-year-old Norine Mac
Earland, who a short time since
ran away from her home at 1917
Cleveland avenue, where, she
claims, she was badly mistreated
by her father and brothers.
At the same time that Smith was
arrested, Lewis Gatewood, miner,
was taken into custody on statu-
tory charge in connection with the
girl. and Mrs. Gertie Johnson,
Smiths daughter-in-law, was ar
rested charged with having assist
ed in leading the girl into an i'm
moral life.
In the city Jail today Smith de-
clared that his arrest was put-up
job, and that the police we're sore
ON him because of his being a wit
ness In the case against Detective
Lee Downey in connection with the
shooting OF Joe Curry.
Smith declares that the girl came
to his home some time since, ask
ing shelter for the night and say
ing that she had been forced to
leave her home because Of the
abuse of her brothers and her
father. The girl was allowed to
stay all night, but when she came
back the next evening Smith told
her she had better 60 back and fix
things up with her folks. The girl
then returned home. There, ac-
cording to the story she afterward
told Smith, she was again abused
and her father told her to get ready
and he would take her to the juve-
nile court. The girl, SO her story
0Des, prepared herself to be turned
ever to the court. and when her
1ather refused to take her she again
left home, and went to stay with
Mrs. Johnson, where she was found
last night at the time the arrests
were made.

rest is only a bit of police persecu-
tion, he having been one of the &C.
tive leaders in the recent l. w. w.
