dealing with children Is preferable to

the things most to be avoided The
policy of the Chicago reform workers
is to get at the child before 1t goes
down, raise the standard Of the home,

for intimate relations with homes and

TORESHADOWING already what
we may expect for the coming
fall season. the hats for late
summer indicate that we shall have
many bonnet-like shapes, tall crowns
and large hats few in number as COM
pared to small and medium sized
models. Outing hats for July and Au-
gust are of felt In white or light
colors, such as Alice blue, champagne
and the seasons beautiful pink tones
These are either all felt or felt and
hemp combinations and are trimmed
with scarfs, bands, soft draperies Of
chiffon and wings or ribbon. They
are exquisite and. 1t must be con-
fessed, fragile in the matter of keep

rieties. in coarse silk nets and in

add immensely to the attractiveness
of the hats and the complexion. for
they are worn either over or of the

HARVESTING IN ARID AREAS
important That Grain Be Gathered
More Promptly Than IN Other
Areas--Time to Cut.

In dry areas II is even more impor-,
tant that grain shall be harvested
promptly than in other areas. One
reason is that the grain is usually
very plump, and therefore, shells
easily. This Is not true OF all kinds
Of grain. but Il is true Of many kinds!
OF the same. Some kinds OF wheHta
for instance, do not shell readily
though not cut for two or three weeks,
after reaching maturity. This. howl
ever. is not true Of many kinds OF
wheat.
The loss In Smelling does not result
entirely from the loss OF the grain.
In such areas, much of the grain thus
lost will grow again. but not until the.
next year II mingles with the crop,
that follows often 10 its serious detriS
ment, even though the crop should be
Ut the same species and variety It
makes II thicker than II ought to be,
thus making the moisture supply In
q dry season. On the open prairie
or beach lands, the winds will SO whip
the heads betimes. that II cutting Is
deferred for even two or three days
beyond the proper stage, much OF the
grain will be lost.
!. In such areas the cutting Is usually
too long deferred. With most cereals
cutting may take place as soon as the
straw has assumed yellow tinge for
several inches below the head. 1t will
also be OF the same tint for several
inches up from the surface OF the
ground. but the body of the straw,
may still be green. Flax Is ready for
cutting in such areas when say two
thirds OF the hollis have assumed
brown tint Peas are ready when two
thirds OF the pods on the vines have
turned yellow. The pods, still more
or less green in tint, will be found on
top OF the vines. They are much less
important than those first formed.
Where very large areas OF grain are
grown In dry section, the crop is fire.
Quently harvested with the header,
and In some instances with the com.
bined header and thresher; this 10
only possible where the area to be

Pulaski county soon will be in the

needs court house just as bad as
Cairo needs city hall, and unless
the opposition has some stronger
foundation than sectional or fac

vail. II is to be expected that, al
