ingly cachet. Gold and silver cords
aroused in the same manner and with
good results. Garlands of tiny roses
threaded through the careless locks
Of young buds Is one of the prettiest
garnishments in use Just now.
Simple turban-like coiffures for the
day and extravagant curl effects for
evening sum up the situation In fash.
tonable hairdressing. And let 1t be
added that front curls are becoming
more and more the ruling fad and are
very prevalent In the French capital.
Women who have not the time nor
inclination to visit the hairdresser
every day have their day and evening
chignons made separately. The art
OF hairdressing In America has gained
rapid strides in competition with
French hairdressers. and many of
their little whims and vagaries are be-
Ing successfully introduced by hair
dressers over here. much to the de-
light of their regular patrons.
One OF the recent innovations is the
chignon made Of waved combings
woven to flexible wire frame. The
long strands Of hair were interlaeed
into each other and the short ends
swathed across the front and the
others arranged around the lower part
OF the chignon. forming fiat double
swath effect over the ears. The back
hair projected several inches and
seemed to be merely a big, loose coil

fects for day wear. The same founda-
ton Is employed In the making of

other becoming chignon for the dav "a
made OF a four-strand braid OF mod.
erately long hair. The cunn,ng
method of interlacing is the redaam'
ing feature of this one, the completed
effect of which is mass of smooth
glossy plaits.
Artificial rolls, puts and inner nom.
padours, sometimes called transforma
tons, are almost extinct. as nearly all
the smart coiffures are perfectly fat
with the hair resting close to the
head. A tiny parting on the left side
forms one Of the very becoming ef-
fects- The line does not extend verv
far back on the head and on eithar
side little curls fall over the brow

have q natural cowlick are to be con.

been a part of the coiffure for so long.
American women are appreciating
more every year the smartness of the
French woman's faultless coiffure.
The heads of Parisiennes always look
as II their owners had just stepped
from the hairdresser's. Even the lit
tie shop girls appear on the streets
and at their places of business, Golf
fured in the latest fashion, and the
arrangement Is quite as perfect as
that seen on the patrons they walt
upon. 1t is a sort of natural art with
French women to arrange their
tresses becomingly and without a
single hair. out of place. This Is &C
oomplished without the aid OF nets,
but in many instances brilliantine Is
employed, sometimes indiscriminate-
".
Like the locks OF hair, the band
that twines about the head in classic
fashion is of the hair itself and is
smooth and glossy. This particular
effect is typical of French fashions Of
the present time and Is far more be-
coming to the average woman than
the ribbon bands that have been used
Of late. The strap-like band is shown
to best advantage in coiffure where
the back hair is arranged in soft ring
letpuffs and the strap OF the hair
around the front Is as natural In its
effect as If 1t had grown there. Such
hairdressing is not easy to accom-
plish, but 1t is sensible, unless mass

Prevailing Evening style.
Ribbon and jeweled bands crossing
each other, and the back, built out
with loose puffs and curls of the
Marie Antoinette type, is stunning
style for evening, but dressing that
few women can achieve from the nat
ural product of their own heads.
Twists of gauze or tulle are favored

costumes one sees the locks threaded

ough cultivation for the conservation
of moisture"

VI AlOAobulOs
"The practice of growing hogs OF
alfalfa has been shown to be very
profitable. On alfalfa pasture o.
good quality, at least 600 hogs coult
be pastured on thirty acres. Alfalfa
seeded in the fall will not give full
crop the following season. although
on irrigated land, fall seeding may
give single fairly good cutting the
| following season. Fall seeding is moi
usually SO satisfactory as spring seed
| ing. Young pigs can be grown sue
cessfully on Alfalfa pasture alone
but do not make as profitable q
growth as they will if fed some grain
Under present market conditions the
best grain to feed in combination
with alfalfa pasture is chop made
of equal parts of wheat, oats, and
barley ground together. Ten to IL
pounds Of alfalfa seed per acre is
sufficient, If sown with a grain drill.
II seeded broadcast, fifteen to eigh-
teen pounds is usually necessary In
order to get a uniform stand. Alfalfa
seed sells at 1Sc to Csc per pound,
depending upon the quality. Gener-
ally the higher priced seed is the
cheaper, as it carries a much higher
percentage of good Seed"
"Logged-off land in western Wash
ington and western Oregon IS admir-
ably adapted to pasture usage. 1t Is
quite a common practice to seed the
ground between the stumps with
clover, especially white clover, and
in a few months have splendid
pasture which may be used for per-
iod of years without removing the
stumps. There is considerable diff
Guilty in seeding grain under such con-
1itions, however. The adaptability
If such lands to the growing of cat
lie, therefore, depends upon the place
which pasturage may occupy in the
growth of the animals and this in
urn is determined largely by the eli
natic conditions. There is no ques-
ion whatever but that such pasture
ands are admirably adapted to dairy
,ows and growing young stock. 1t is
ny opinion that hogs may be very
grown under such condi-
ions, suplementing the pasturage
With little grain which can be either
,rown or purchased.

ANOTHER REPORT.

Last Wednesday afternoon, Dec. 6,
pretty wedding took place at the P.

Bette, was married to Peter Halvor-
son Of Georgeville. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. C. Swenson
Of New London. The bride was pref
thy gowned in white crepe de chine
trimmed with fringed braid, wore a
veil and carried cream roses. The
bridesmaid, Miss Mildred Johnson, a
sister Of the bride, was dressed in
white wolfe and carried white carna-
tons. The groom wore the conven-
tional black and was attended by o.
car Halvorson. The wedding march
was played by Ethel Thimell. The

autumn leaves and bitter-sweet ber-
ries. The table decorations were
ferns and flowers. A splendid three

a million dollars.
Word was received from a firm Of
London solicitors Friday that the
fortune was ready for distribution

will leave shortly after the first of
the year.
The other heirs are John Dudley,
Shieldsville, Mimi; Mrs. William
Geiger, Faribault, Mimi; Mrs. Rose
McKenna, Minneapolis, and Mrs.
John Casey, Danvers, MINI. ~
Mr.. Dudley has known for more
than a year that his chances of shar-
ing the fortune were good and he has
conducted negotiations since that
time through the British vice consul.

ever, as he had no idea OF the extent
Of the fortune or of the fact that the
matter was ready for final settle
ment.
The estate consist Of 10000
pounds in cash and a value larger
than that in real estate. It was will
ed to Mr.. Dudley's father and moth
er, Robert and Ann Dudley, shortly

has been in the courts. The estate is
now in the court Of Chancery, Lon

C0lfax Home Scene Of q Pretty
Nuptial Event Last
Wednesday.

A very pretty December home we'd
ding took place at the P. Q. johnson
home at Colfax last Wednesday,
when their daughter, Betty Ella, was
united in wedlock to Peter Halvorson
Of Georgeville.
At the appointed hour to the tune
Of the wedding march played by Eth
Ell !Thimell the bridal party entered
the parlor { (which was hastily decor
ated in autumn foliage), where they
were met by Rev. Swenson of New
London, who briefly spoke the words
that made the young couple man and
wife. About one hundred guests
were present. The ring. ceremony
was used. .-..,. " Il
The groom was attended by his
brother, Oscar, and the bride by her
sister.
The decorations in the dining room
were evergreens and flowers. Over
the tables were a large round loop of
candles fastened to place in the cell
ing with wide streamers Of white rib
bons, and while the wedding dinner
was served the rooms were made
dark and candle lighted, making the
effect very attractive.
The young couple will spend the
winter with the groom's parents and
in the spring will take up their resi-
dence at the John Peterson farm at
Ringville.
We all join in and wish the "newly-
weds" long and unclouded voyage
through their welded bliss.
