who has seven field agents working

ditions, and their work during the past
winter has been largely devoted to adj
vising the farmers in Mississippi and
Alabama along the lines Of the advance
of the weevil as to the b bsst methods Of
controlling that insect and growing
cotton successfully in spite of its
presence.
Itis the purpose OF President Finley
to make the Cotton Culture Department

is largely cooperative, Mr.. Finley has

bafaa and Mississippi, and the Presi
dents of the Agricultural Colleges Of
these States to participate in the con-
ference. In tho forenoon OF the same

duced passenger rates will be made for

come back to greater popularity
than it has ever known, and cotton
voiles are on the. highest pinnacle of
fashion as materials for summer
frocks, white and the delicate pale
blues, greens and pinks being the
chosen colors. Frocks of white and
colored wolfe are charming with trim
mings of pretty laces, and white
dresses with hens and knee deep skirt
bands of satin or surah silk are pleas
ing novelties. Wolfe frocks with en-
|broideries in imitation of the more
costly bead trimming are extremely
pretty for younger women.
Foulards are back to renew their
acquaintance of a year ago. Black
and white stripe finish foulards, so
similar to the old time surahs as to
be called surahs by many, make the
most delightful little frocks for almost
any daytime occasion A touch of
brilliant red is charming on a black
silk hairlined with white.
Overdraperies of diaphanous ma
terials keep their enviable position,
but they seem to have moved upward
in the scale until now only very
dressy costumes for afternoon and
evening wear are developed with chif-
fon and marquisette over dresses that
dull and sadden lustrous satins and
glittering and brilliant embroideries,
producing a wonderfully mysterious
effect calculated to enhance feminine
beauty and call forth a goodlP tRpcunt
of masculine approval.
