rendered. One of the most interest
ing things was a poem composed for
the occasion by Mrs. Won StOrch.
Everybody seemed to be happy and
all declared they had had a good
time.

.S0UTACHE TO Be
IN GENERAL USE.
New Models In Tailor Mad9s.
Stripes and Checks Favored.

Soutache braiding, mostly used en-
heavy materials, is now appearing on
the fine materials, such as chiffon,
mousseline. ninon, etc, the rose, blue
and gray shades being particularly
lovely. Russia braid trims some of the
dresses in ninon, the design being
worked in military style.
1t will be a season of radical changes
in tailor made styles. from the fact
that the skirts are all narrow, having
one or two models of plaits from the
waist. which are tightly strapped in
about twelve inches from the bottom.
Striped and checked materials are
very popular just now. and they make
charming tailor made suits. The
stripes or checks are either close or
widely separated, and in some cases
they are used in combination with
plain material.
Early showings of fabrics for suits
are mostly tweed and serge in mixed
colorings. Velvets will be extremely
fashionable for winter wear in dark
colors, with a fine stripe of another
hue.
These elaborate little boleros of EN-
broidery transform simple gown into
ornateness. They look wonderfully
smart, too over a last seasons dress.
and they are particularly pretty over
dresses of soft net.

A Schuylkill county business man
wrote Professor Surface, state ZOO
logist, in reference to the condition
of mildew on his rambler rose
vines, and which causes the leaves
TO curl. He requested a remedy
The professor replied as follows:
you can prevent mildew by
spraying with boiled lime-sulphur
wash, or with sulphur alone stirred
into water, or by dusting with sui
phur in the morning when the leaves
are damp with dew, or you can
spray with an ounce of sulphate of
potassium, or an ounce of sulphate
of soda, dissolved in each gallon of
water 1t seems that sulphur, or the
sulphur compounds in any form,
are practical specifics for mildew.
With mildew, red mites or red spi-
ders are almost always found, and
sulphur, either in liquid or dry form
or in compounds, is one of the best
remedies for the red mites. Thus
the application of sulphur, either
dry or stirred in water. or in some
of its chemical compounds dissolved
in water, proves to be an efficient
remedy for both mildew and red
spiders"

The Frenchwoman has suddenly
flung away all heavy wells with large
figures. which she has been wearing
for sonTe time, and she has taken up
the latest sort of filmy wells, which are
called '-toile d'araignee," or spider
webs. In their delicate meshes are
woven aFf sorts of flower designs and
star shaped and leaf shaped things
held together by fine webs, so that
they completely cover the surface Of
the veil.
For summer these new wells are very
much daiatier and lighter than the
earlier styles.
The classic chantflly lace veil, with
its beautiful designs and border, is
also very much worn these days in
both black and white. 1t is very hard
to recognize a friend who is hidden
behind one. of these wells, but there are
undoubtedly a certain smartness and
chic that go with them that add much
to the costume.

If you expect to sell hogs at fancy
prices you must produce fancy hogs.
Too many breeders are content with
fancy pedigree expecting the blood
lines of the animal to carry it into
popularity.
While It is very essential that an
animal have a desirable pedigree, 1t
is all the more essential that the
animal itself possesses individual
merit
A well-known breeder of Poland
Chinas writes us that he has had the
best trade the past six months that
he ever enjoyed and the prices he re-
eeived have been very satisfactory.
His hogs are extra fine and always
find ready sale.
AS soon as breeders Of pedigreed
hogs come to a full understanding
that the animal produced must pos
sess greater merit in connection with
the pedigree then the people will
readily pay a good price for it, re-
gardless of whether or not public de-
mand is strong for such animals.

A manure spreader makes the pro-
fits from dairying stin greater.
Plenty of bedding for the COW helps

Of thoroughbred stock for the cities,
Don't keep the culls, the Ioafers,
the puny, weakly chicks around. Send
them TO market.
The best remedy for sick fowls is
the ak, but with proper precaution
they won't get sick.
Pullets should be grown. or nearly

RattIlng in Chickens Throat.

"Rattling in the throat" is a prom
inent symptom of bronchitis. Isolate
all afflicted fowls and begin treat
ment.
In the early stages of the disease
give one drop of tincture of aconite
in half teaspoonful Of water.
Repeat every hour for five hours,
and then once in three hours. Have
a hot mash of at least one-half bran,
the other half mfddlings or bread
crumbs.
Also slightly acidulte the drinking
water with ten drops each OF sui
phuric and nitric acid.
In place of the aconite a teaspoon
full of glycerin and about two drops
OF whiskey added will often allay the
irritation. Repeat daily for about a
week.

New Pearl Ornaments.

You may wear as much jewelry as
you wish and still not be overloaded,
according TO the dictates of the sum
mer fashions. Shirt waist pins now
come in sets for the fronts and cuffs
of blouses. They are Of pearls or
moonstones usually, seldom OF colored
stones. Belt buckles also must nc
longer be of the common type known
as harness buckles, but Of a more or,
namental nature OF dull gold or Ger
man silver. Jeweled barrettes, gold
chains and ornate memorandum cases
may now be worn all at the same time
without prejudice.
Even earrings are seen, which is d
fact to be deplored. These are usual
ly either pearl or jet pendants, but

Moore issued the following statement:
Representative Foulkrod and myself
called upon Secretary Nagel with re-
gard to the immigration station site,
and ound that the secretary had about
decided to make a selection outside
of the city of Philadelphia. We en-

that the law contemplated a site on
the Philadelphia side of the river. The
secretary answered by saying a legal
opinion had been handed him. showing
that this point was not we'll taken.

there should be no further delay, asked
