STYLES FOR THE BRUNETTE
Vivid coIorlnss, So Popular Just Now,
Need Dark Beauty to Set
Them OF.

At a recent style show held In
Washington under the patronage Of a
committee Of society women the liv-
ing models chosen were girls with
brown hair and brown eyes. No mat
ter how beautiful girl Of the blonde
type might be. she did not have a
chance Of being chosen for the show.
The blonde girl is not admired this
season for she does not bring out the
good points Of the new creations"
and dreams" launched by the Paris
dressmakers for the winter season.
Poiret, the most daring Of the Paris
dress artists. still clings to the orlen.

ure, but the wonderful vivid colorings
of the orient still hold his attention
and in some Of his startling new after
noon and evening frocks he has com.
bined vivid reds. blues and green's
color schemes which would be lurid
and terrible except when combined
with the master hand OF Poiret and
worn by woman Of the right type.
The fair beauty Of blonde model
is eclipsed when she dons one Of these
frocks with Its vivid color notes. She
is not the woman to set 1t of to best
advantage, SO an olive skinned. al
mond eyed beauty is chosen In her
place. 1t is said there will be no
fiaxen haired models employed at any
OF the big style shows held In this
country or Paris. Only the languor-
ous beauties who suggest the mystery
Of the orient are In demand.

IGNORE WALL STREET BEARS

Let us not devote 80 much time to

are to blame for the low price Of cot.
ton. We are the successful BEARS We
have no business to plant three.
fourths Of our land In cotton and buy
corn. oats, bacon. lard and so on. We
plant too many acres in cotton and
thereby force the price down. We
buy farm products on credit and are
forced to dump our cotton on the
market In the fall and thereby force
the price down. Let's prepare to live
at home. stay out Of debt and pay
cash as We go.
The too-exclusive culture OF cotton
means that we will buy corn. oats, ba.

Now is the time to begin to fix the
price of cotton for 1912. Sow acres

that the road to high price cotton, fer

COOPERATE TO SELL FRUIT
Growers' Work Does Not Cease Until
Money Is Safely peposlted-caII.
fornla Example.

For the benefit of the fruit industry
! would urge that as growers we take
broad view Of the marketing prob
lem. In the first place 1t has been
clearly demonstrated that fruit grow.
er's business does not cease when the
fruit is grown; 1t only ceases when
money for the crop is safely In the
bank. and then only to begin again In
the preparations for new crop. This
thing Of turning ones crop over to
some ouside commission house to sell,
although sometimes coming up to ex-
pectations has, nevertheless, so fire..
quently ended In financial disaster to
the growers concerned that enlight.
ened communities have long since
evolved the better plan Of marketing
through associations Of growers. says
writer In an exchange BY this
method, sufficient quantity Of fruit
Is brought together to enable the asso.
citation to employ Its own MAJ ayers
and statesmen. These men are inter-
ested only In getting as much for the
growers as possible. The largest and
most notable example OF this In the
United States, or the world. perhaps.
is the California Fruit Growers ex.
change. which has its agents In every
large market In the United States and
Canada, and representative In Eu.
rope. Then there are fruit growers
associations In Florida. Texas. Wash
ington. Oregon. Utah. Idaho and Col.

GAIN MADE BY COOPERATION
Successful Marketing Of Farm Be.
pends on Education Of Farmer
Along Selling Lines.

This summer has seen early pota
toes reach top.notch prices. Some OF
the farmers. however. hear that
James Brown. who was a commission
man in Philadelphia several yeari
ago. but who failed. by the way. said
that potatoes would go higher, even
for the unprecedented price Of S4.Sa
per barrel. They believe that Brown
knows what he Is talking about. They
do not stop to consider that the pres
ent price is unusual and remarkable,
writes c. G. Holloway In the Orange
Judd Farmer. They know absolutely
nothing of the potato outlook farther
north; in fact, they know nothing ex.
cept the local market and local condi.
tions.
The farmer has great deal Of hu.
man nature in him; he is tickle, like
all other classes of the human fam.
lily. The farmers produce exchange
has become well established in vari.
GUS parts OF the country. The farmer
who Is member is supposed to sup
port the organization by shipping all
his produce through it. yet the min
ute a buyer or speculator steps IN
with fairly reputable looking check
book and says cash and no risk, the
exchange is left In the hole, unless 1t
Is fortunate enough to have good
opening and can afford to buy In COM
petition. At one small town some
thing like the above condition Of af.
fairs had been in vogue for day or
two. Potatoes were selling at prices
ranging from 81 to $435, with the To-
cal representative Of the exchange
buying the majority. When the man
ager Of the exchange learned Of the
high prices paid by the local repre-
sentatives misunderstanding oc-
CURED whereby the responsibility was
shifted to the latter, who sold out his
right to buy. and also about 21s cars
very near cost. Immediately the
speculator dropped prices to $3.50 to
$3.50. 1t was truly pathetic and mad
dening to watch the hard-worked
farmer eye with doubtful mien the
speculator as he examined the stock
and when he would bid $3.50 or $3.50
hear the following dialogue:
rs that the best you can do?"
| Yes"
A long pause, after which: well.
l guess they're yours"
What else could he do? He had
abandoned the exchange: he was not
In touch with any dealer or commits

probability could not load car him.
self. 1t is out Of the question to
think Of forming general farmers
