Child's Leuuinos,

The long leggings of jersey which
extend from the ankle to the waist
line are an exceedingly practical addi-
ton to the small folks wardrobe.
These leggings button up the leg al
most to the knee, and another set of
buttons extends from above the knee
to the waist line. An elastic holds the
leggings in position about the waist.
The ieggings are to be found in black,
blue and brown

Corduroy leggings are made to

they are dressier looking.

BEST COLOR FOR CURTAINS
Strange That Gray, So EminentIy
Appropriate, Has Not Been More
Largely Made Use OF.

IN one of the popular plays of the
day the woman who is artistic will
get an idea well worth following as to
house decoration. In one of the
scenes a room is decorated with gray
curtains.
Why, says the artistic woman, has
she not thought of gray curtains be-
fore? Why adhere to blue and brown,
rose and white, when gray makes a
frame for the outside world that is
inimitable? 1t softens the garish
brightness of an azure sky, and drapes
the sad day with sympathetic har-
mony. Moreover. a gray tone with
any room is never obtrusive, does not
weary the senses, is dignified, charm
ing and picturesque. 1t is, in short,
perfect choice.
Gray curtains made of chintz,
China silk and sheeting, or the
sumptuous brocade and satin, are the
ideal accompaniment of the house

1t is believed that bulbs can be
grown on the Pacific coast, and Of a
quality that will compare favorably
with. and In many ways surpass, the
imported article, the cost Of produc-
ton and marketing being now the
chief obstacles.
An effort is being made to over
come the differences between the
high price OF labor In America and
the cheap labor of Europe by invent
Ing appliances to lessen the hand
labor required In bulb production, and
the substitution Of horse power for
many OF the operations performed
entirely by hand In Europe has re-
duced the cost Of production consid-
erably. In this way It is hoped that
growers in the United States will be
able to compete successfully with the
European bulb growers.

Comparatively few know of the in.
teresting experiments that are being
carried on at the bulb garden near the
town Of Bellingham, Washington, un.
der the direction of the secretary of
agriculture.
For years the United States has
been sending to Holland and Euro
pean countries many thousands of dol.
lars annually for hyacinth, tulip, mar.
cissus, and crocus bulbs. The pur.
chase of these bulbs had constantly
increased until the past year, when

ported.
In 1908 the secretary of agriculture
decided to establish on the Pacific
coast garden for the culture and
propagation Of Holland bulbs, and a
point on Puget Sound near to the
town of Belliigham was selected as
having a suitable soil and climate for
this work. A tract Of ten acres was
leased through the Bellingham board
or trade and the necessary buildings
erected and turned over to the depart
ment Of agriculture for the purpose of
demonstrating whether or not the Hol-
land bulbs could be grown successfully
at that point.
The department commenced work at

A serious drawback to the produc-
ton Of Holland bulbs on the coast
Is the heavy expense of freight ship
ments across the continent, but when
shipment can be made by water. as
will be the case after the completion
Of the Panama canal, II should be pos.
sible to deliver such bulbs at tho port
OF New York almost rs cheaply as
they can be brought from Europe.
Furthermore. the demand for such
bulbs for planting on the Pacific coast
is rapidly increasing.
These experiments are solely for
the purpose OF showing prospective
bulb growers what can be done in
growing these bulbs In the United
States. The gardens are always open
to the public. and when the bulbs are
In bloom thousands avail them
selves OF the opportunity to visit the
gardens and enjoy the flowers. At
that time 1t is a veritable little Hol-
land. Thousands upon thousands OF
hyacinths. tulips and narcissis in all
colors and nearly all In flower at
once can be seen.
