HAREM SKIRT WORN HERE.
Miss Hutcheson Says She Likes 1
and Tells Why.

The much-talked-of harem skirt was
seen in F street yesterday afternoon.
Miss Anna Hutcheson, of I429 Ninth
street northwest, being the wearer. Ow-
ing to the fact that the design which
shocked Paris and New York was much
modified, the skirt did not create much
Of sensation, but at no time in her
walk did Miss Hutcheson lack a train of
feminine onloOkers and male admirers.
Miss Hutcheson claims the skirt is a
great improvement over the hobbIe skirt
in that it permits the wearer to walk
freely and not depend upon a series of
six-inch steps to travel. The dress was
designed by Miss Emma L. Davies, upon
the suggestion of Owen Owen.

need give thought to bird for the home table
on thanksgiving. There is always some sort of

at the homestead. We may dgress for moment,
Uoo' 10 add that In late years there has come
great change in sentiment on the part of many
OF the farmers as to the Thanksgiving turkeys
Tor their own tables. In days gone by there
was often disposition to regard almost any old
gobbler as sufti cient for the home folks All the
choice birds were sent to market, because they
would bring the best prices and the farmer and
his household not infrequenty had to put up
with the leavngs as It we're Latterly however
as greater prosperity has come to so many OF
the farmers there is growing disposition to re-
gard the best as none too good for the kings of
the SOIL and this applies to turkeys as to every
thing else. Consequently 1t is usual for the
progressive farmer to retain one Of his tenderest
birds for the kith and kin that break bread with
MIN on thanksgiving, and not infrequently the
chosen bird has been singled out from the others
long In advance and is specially fattened in
cordance with the tastes of the family.
There has been much discussion on the part OF
the public in recent years regarding the compare
tive scarcity of small turkeys-that is six to eight
pound birds-in the Thanksgiving market. There
is no difficulty in fixing the responsibility for this
disappearance of the small turkeys. 1t is due to
the growing tendency among turkey raisers to
devote their best efforts to the bronze" variety
of fowl-the largest variety of the bird. The
lure Of the American love of bgness has made
itself felt in the turkey realm and the 80 to SO
pound birds which have attracted so much atten-
ton at fashionable hotels and on banquet boards
have come to be regarded as the most desirable
specimens Of that fowl which becomes for one
day each year our national bird
Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1911-11-23

1t must be admitted, however, that the bronze
variety Of turkey not only holds the post of honor
because of its size and its rich pumage but also,
In the estimation of many epicures because of Its
flavor as well. There is no doubt that the size Of
the bronze variety-its standard weight ranges
from 16 to SO pounds-is to be attributed to the
fact that the birds of this family originated from
a between the wild and the tame turkey.
For that matter, the wild turkey OF North Amer
lea was the ancestor of all presentday do
nestle turkeys, but the Crosses" which have
been made in the Of the bronze variety have
been particularly fortunate in inducing mammoth
size However. of the officials of the depart
ment Of agriculture recently declared that the
bronze turkey had been developed too much in
the direction Of size and II he can convert the
turkey raisers to his way Of thinking may
see some years hence Of smaller bronze
turkeys of even finer flavor than those regarding
which such enthusiasm has been manifested by
lovers Of the good things of life.
OF course the Wanted bronze variety is not the
whole thing in turkeydom, for there are six other
standard varieties, the branches of the family in
addition to the bronze being the Narragansett,
the buff, the slate, the white and the black.
Many people who think that we have been
1oying pretty appetlzing turkey from time out OF
mind may be surprised to learn that the prestige
Of the turkey as an article of food was seriously
threatened few years ago through carelessness
and lack Of foresight in breeding methods. Not
much said about It, except in the poultry
papers and at the conventions of poultry raisers,
but the menace was sufficient to arouse the more
progressive turkey rasers with the result that
they mended their ways, put ban on inbreed-
ing and went in for the purebred or standard
bred turkey, with the welcome outcome that rich.
new, vigorous blood made its influence felt in
infusing strength and vigor In turkey hocks all

In the case Of growers who have had the bene-
fit Of enough experience to qualify them for the
work, turkey raising is, under favorable condi-
tons, highly profitable occupation. No other
kind Of live stock will return so large a profit to
the successful producer as will poultry and tur-

the farmer who sell his turkeys direct to
housewives can get from rs cents per pound up
according to the state of the market and the
quality Of the fowl-but even the growers who
market through commission merchants, as most
of them do ought to net from 16 to 20 cents per
pound providing the sales agent Is not allowed
to pocket more than his share OF the sales price.
OF course, for the grower to net 20 or "a cents
pound 1t is necessary to have the choice, special
ly fattened turkeys that bring top-notch prices
in the markets catering to the wealthy class in
the large cities.
Recent years have witnessed change in the
methods Of shipping turkeys to market Many

turkeys for city markets now shipped by ex-

the birds make the Journey by fast freight, but
under such conditions man must be sent along
with each car load to feed the birds. SO that in
the end 1t is likely to be just as cheap to send
the birds by express, the transit thus being ac-
compshed In a few hours and no feeding en-
route being necessary. To carry out the present
