PROSPECTS POR RUBBER
WORKERS BETTER
Akron, o., Feb. 19.-Chances
of victory for the striking rubber
workers frightened today when
the American Federation of La
Dor and the Industrial Workers
of the World laid aside their diff
ferences and began working side
by side to organize the 10000
strikers.
Officials of the rubber factor
les had been hoping the rival or
CARNATIONS would split the work
erS into two camps.
The rubber strikers have their
girl leader, as has every strike in
the last few years among the
poorer paid trades.
Mary Avramovich, 10, is the
Joan of Arc of Akron. She was
the first girl to quit work and
urge her sister workers to join
in the movement for better con-
ditions. Mary was employed in
the tube department of the Good
rich plant. She was dissatisfied
with her wages and the long
hours she was forced to work.

PROPER CULTURE OF CLOVER
Best Results Have Been Obtained on Black, Sandy Loam-killIns Dan
 ger Is In Spring.

My best results in clover growing have been on black, sandy loam So far I have grown exclusively the me dium or common red clover. says a writer in the New England Home stead usually SOW from eight to twelve pounds per acre on wellpre- pared seed bed I prefer sowing with nurse crop Wheat and barley both have been tried for this purpose. prefer barley. as 1t does not form such dense shade for the young clover plants when they are start. ing. The crop of clover grows rapid. lly, and cutting begins about July 1 In this locality. and sometimes a little earlier in the fields where clover is without any other grasses, and some times q little later if timothy and clover are mixed
 Clover Is not grown 10 any great ex- tent in this locality. The past two seasons have not been the best to secure a stand. The real danger of eloverkilllng comes fin the spring When 1t freezes and thaws out. and the ground heaves the plants are torn loose and die. Whenever the snow collects 1t comes in fine shape in the spring. With the continued culti- vation of this soil and with large amount of manure worked into the soil will come better clover-raising in this part of the state

Graceful Coats.

One of the most graceful forms ta- ken by the fur coat of the moment is that in which the garment is made seven or eight inches too long. The extra length is then caught up In a series of festoons down each side seam. This is distinctly due to the pannier idea. 1t has the advantage of not making the figure too much like the fashionable pegtop.
 typical coat of the moment in tall less ermine has a Vatican plait of the fur at the back held down in plaits between the shoulders. The fulness Is again caught in at the level of the knees by a broad band of lace. fringed with ermine tails. which draws the watteau plait out to its fullest and holds it tightly in to the figure.

CONTRASTS IN C0L0RS
NEW JEwELRY MOSTLY SHOWN
 IN BLACK AND WHITE.
mountInss Made Especially Fine and Delicate Evening Gowns Span oled With crystsi-Amber
 Has Much Vogue.

The gorgeous coloring of the sea son's costumes is reflected in the newest jewels. 4 difference is noted too between these and last winters jewels in the mountings for the plat mum work, which is much finer and more delicate in design.
 There are two opposite modes in the matter Of color in jewels, just as there are in gowns The first is a decided vogue for black and white. The black and white note in gowning lis echoed in jewels by the popular fly Of crystal and jet.
 Necklaces of large Jet links and pendant plaques of jet are worn with gowns of white velvet or silk bro cades. and in no wise Is the polished let considered 6 jewel for mourning wear. There are wonderous new eve ming gowns spangled with crystal. and others with sequins or jet. and with these are worn jet or crystal jewels, the jet sometimes inlaid with pearls, while diamonds are embedded in the crystal ornaments.
  enamels and semi-precieus stones as well as the gems is practically end less. Every stone is brought into play, and such combinations as jade and d. amouds and coral with pearls are seen.
 Handsome carved deep green jade is used in necklace Oriental in form. The central panel is an oblong shaped plaque from which are suspended five pendant strings of large diamonds, each ending in a cube of jade This motif of square cut jade Is repeated throughout the circle of the necklace when diamonds in groups of four al- ternate with jade cubes.
 Amber Is having an unprecedented vogue. The smoked variety in open work settings is very striking, while the deep, rich tone of clear amber is set off to the best advantage to mountings of tinted gold.
 Red enamel and diamonds form a beautiful necklace intended for wear with Besnard red gown. It has three rows Of diamonds held in place by enameled slides that are framed in tiny diamond chips, and three pend ants in elaborate design of red enam- el are intersected and oyerlaid with diamonds
 And then, in entire disregard to this mode for vivid cclorings, is the per sistent fashion for the unassuming pearl above all the bright hued gems 1t holds first place.

 Companies using large number Of horses have found chopped and ground feeding both better and more teconomical Corn, oats and other grains as rations for horses are used ground. and mixing the ground grain with moistened, chopped hay has proved to be a more economical stable regimen than feeding whole grain and uncut hay and roughage
