A New Alcohol Stove That VIII Make
the Vacation Easier.

A new alcohol stove that has just
been introduced possesses so many
merits that every one who sees it
wants one. It is so handy that it
should be included in the belongings
packed for the vacation trip.
One can heat water and irons, make
coffee, cook breakfast (if necessary.
heat milk quickly and do everything
that can be done on gas stove (no
oven, Of course), and with safety. The
stove is attractive, being nickel plated,
and so will be easily kept clean. De-
natured alcohol furnishes the heat.

Hats For Small Child
No End of Quaint and Charming Styles
to Select From.

to Select From.
THE baby's hat changes in style as
much as his mothers does. The
hats of this season are graceful and
easily made For hard wear nothing
equals hats Of embroidered pique. To
launder easily the brims and crowns
are made separate and buttoned to-
gether. The crown is worked with a
simple wreath Of detached flowers on
top and is finished on the edge with
groups OF three buttonholed scallops
alternating with a long tab that
reaches nearly to the edge Of the brim.
This is buttonholed around the edges
In q straight line.
The brim is cut double with the rib
side Of pique out on both sides and the
edges buttonholed together. The head
opening is then cut In circle and the
edge bound with tape. The crown but
tons down on the brim about an inch
beyond the head size, and the tabs
also button.
A wide soft ribbon is run under the
tabs and tied az the back in big bow.
This ribbon may be coiored 10 match
the frock. or soft null scarf may be
used with ends scalloped and en-
broidered.
There are charmingiy simple little
hats made with dotted swiss crowns
shirred into the brims. which are fin
ished with box plated ruffies OF swiss
edged with valenciennes lace. These
hats are adorned with many looped
bows Of blue ribbon at one side and
smaller ones at the opposite side.
A quaint hat is of white null with
the crown gathered In radiating lines
from the center. The sides are SHRED
over cord, and the brim is a deep RUNE
of openwork embroidery. A quaint
touch is given by small rosettes OF
colored ribbon outlining the top Of the
crown above the cordine.

ECONOMY IN MEAT.

When ordering meat always bear in
mind that beef when boiled loses
nearly one pound in every four and
when roasted Quite eighteen ounces.
Mutton will lose even more than this.
For this reason pies. buildings, etc.
are far more economical and in many
cases moro nourishing.

ABOUT Wells.

When money is scarce there seems
nothing that runs away with ones
money SO fast as wells. Their life Is q
very short lived one, and often a mis-
adventure ruins them as soon as
bought Yet we must wear them II
we want to look smart, and to buy
cheap ones is worse than useless, as
they never look well from the day they
are bought. The truest economy is to
buy fine net by the yard. It cuts to
better advantage. you get four wells
for the price Of one, and it is OF a far
better quality and lasts longer than IL
you buy yelling pure and simple.

regiments. 1t is said this distinction

neither she nor her husband was per-
mitted TO figure prominently in the
public eye. Edward VII was jealous
in this respect. Perhaps he felt the
popular patriotism demanded the pres
ence OF the king in important affairs,
and accordingly he seldom delegated
his son and the Princess Of Wales to
represent him. In this respect the
king obeyed vigorously his idea OF a
king, and now that he is dead George
comes out with less confidence and
less appreciation of the public than
usual. Queen Mary. despite her de-
votion to her home and g quiet life,

honors of her station. and many of her

NEW DANGER TO COTTON.
The Disease "Anthracnosc'' Is PLAYING
Much Havoc i'm This State.

The following special to the Augusta
Chronicle from Columbia gives few
facts concerning the new trouble that's
trying to put the boil wcavil in the
shade:
Columbia, s. c. Sept 1S.-The Cot
ton crop of South Carolina has been
damaged TO the eNtent OF several mil
lion dollars by authracnose a disease
which has attacked the plant in many
sections of the state. The State de-
partment of agriculture has been for
the past week flooded with samples of
the havoc that has been wrought and
many of the farmers are seeking in
formation as to how conditions NAV
be remedied. The department has
given information to all letters as to
how the disease may be eradicated.
Various estimates of the damages
wrought have been made. A conserva-
tive estimate of the damage is about
$4,OOO,OOO.
The county farm demonstration
agents have also sent many samples

After making an examination of sew
eral samples Mr. Williams has ad-
dressed the following letter to we'll
known farmer in Aiken county: THE
cotton bolis YOU sent me received.
thank YOU very much for sending
them. The trouble, without doubt, is
what you have seen written about,
called anthraCuOse. There is nothing
YOU can do to prevent the spread of
the disease this season. Our method
of fighting the disease is to select cot
ton seed from the fields where the
disease has never appeared, as the
germ will live in the seed from one
year to another. If field is affected
it is nest to rotate the crop, putting
some other crop in the land for an
other year, as the germs will live in
the stalks and burrs left in the field,
and therefore attack the ulaut the
next yetr. 1t also attacks some kinds
of cotton mere than Others. me Cook
cotton, | have found is subject to the
disease, while Cleveland big boil is
largely resistant"
Many letters Of similar nature have
been sent out to farmers residing in
all sections of the State. All experts
are agreed that when a crop has been
attacks there is nothing that will save
the crop for that year. The rotation
OF crops seems to be the only plan
TO eliminate the disease according to
those who have made a study of it
Many of the farmers have been adj
vised to plant corn and secure pure
cotton seed not affected by the dis
case for the next year.
The appearance of the disease has
caused much uneasness among many
OF the farmers. Many thought that
the boil weavil had arrived.
