NEW INFLUENCE IN
HOME DECORATION

A NEW influence has crept into inte-
rior decoration. 1t had its impetus
in II. X. Prosser's achievement when he
designed the opal room for a London
lady and thereby added To an already
world wide reputation.
The idea Is to give TO artistic women
boudoirS that will emphasize their per
sonal CHAIRMAN intimate chamber III
which she may receive her greatest
friends. in which she may retire from
the hustle of her social life and reyel in
her whms. Nothing that was ever de-
signed for the purpose surpasses Pros
Ser's opal room.

opal for the motif OF his color scheme,

RAISING THE APPLES
FOR MARKET.
BY Frederic j. Haskil.

An average of seven years is required
to bring an orchard of properly planted
apple trees to a profitable bearing age.
After that. if the trees have due cultiva-
ton and protection, the owner may rea-
sonably expect return for the money in
vested in them. Last year an Ohio or
chard company marketed $500 barrels of
apples from a young orchard growing
upon hill land worth about 500 an acre.
Most of the crop was put into cold stor-
age until spring and then sold at the
highest market price, and the apples
yielded considerably over $1,000.
This year the crop will be still larger
and. as every precaution has been taken
a much more valuable yield is expected
In Texas a sixteen acre farm. averaging
thirty-five trees to the acre. is produc-
ing a straight average OF three and one
half bushels of perfect apples TO the tree
for which the owner is receiving the
highest price. In addition he realizes
considerable sum from the sale of apple

You see, they quite forgot that they very
seldom wandered to the deepest part OF
the Green Forest. OF course, they start
ed at once as fast as they could go to
tell all the other little people who live on
or around the Green Meadows. all but
Old Man Coyote. For some reason they
thought it best not to tell him. They
were a little doubtful about Old Man
Coyote He was SO big and strong and SO
sly and smart that all his neighbors We're
afraid of him. Perhaps the Merry Little
Breezes had this fact in mind, and knew
that none would dare go call OH the
stranger if they knew that Old Man
Coyote was going. too. Anyway. they
simply passed the time Of day with
Old Man Coyote and hurried on to tell
leyery one else, and 1t so happens that the
very last one they met was Sammy jay.
Sammy was terribly put out to think
that anything should be going on that he
didn't know about first. You know. he
is great for prying into the affairs OF
other people, and he loves dearly to
boast that there is nothing going on in
the Green Forest or on the Green Mead
oHs that he doesn't know about. So now
his pride was hurt and he was in a ter
-ible rage as he started after the Merry
Little Breezes for the place deep in the
Green Forest where they said that Paddy
the Beaver was at work. He didn't be-
!lieve a word of it, but he would see for
himself

he meant them no harm You see. he
himself felt quite sure that none of them
was big enough TO do him any harm
Little Joe Otter was the only one he had
any doubts about, and he felt quite sure
that Little Joe wouldn't try to pick a
quarrel. So he kept right on cutting
trees. trimming off the branches and
hauling the trunks down to the dam he
was building Some of them he fioated
down the Laughing Brook. This was
easier.
Now. when the little people of the
Smiling Pool. who were the first to find
out that Paddy the Beaver had come to
the Green Forest. had started up the
Laughing Brook to see what he was do
ing. they had told the Merry Little
BrceZes where they were going The
Merry Little Freezes had been greatly
excited. They couldn't understand how a
stranger could have been living in the
Green Forest without them knowing It.

Significance Of Patterns.

From the Atlantic.
No pattern Is without meaning. Just
like related tones of music. the relation
of tones and colors or of lines and spaces
in a pattern appeal to something in US
below the surface OF ordinary conscious
ness, perhaps. but all the more sensitive
on that account. The Greeks gave to
music paramount Importance III educa-
ton. We train the conscious intelli-
gence. but wholly neglect the harmonic
ing Of those deeper emotional states on
which music and the elements in all the
arts which are akin to music play 50
powerfully Plato held that the intro
duction OF a new kind of music might
imperil the whole state, by Subtly In
sinuating disturbing influence into the
character of the citizens. And really we
have only TO remember how different We
feel in room that is nobly proportioned
and in a room which has been built
without any care or idea Of proportion.
to realize how strongly we are affected
by these silent influences. Think, too.
how the pattern of a wall paper may
affect us, even though We may be quite
unconscious of what it is that makes the
difference. The very fact that We talk
OF patterns as gay, restless. depressing.
or the like, shows how they respond to
our moods.

Oven Frying.

OF course there is no such thing as
~ oven frying. but many kinds of
food can be satisfactorily Drowned in
the dry heat of the oven in such way
as to take the place of fried food.
For one thing. croquettes can be baked
instead of fried. The croGuettes should
be formed several hours before they
are to be used. and then dipped in
beaten egg and cracker crumbs. They
should then be Drowned for about ten
minutes in a hot oven.
Croutons. TOO, can be as satisfactorily
Drowned in the oven as in fat. Simply
