WOMEN ADOPT THE MoNocLE
What Seems Extremely silly Fad
Has Been Taken Up by "society"
In New York.

The ultrafashionable young woman
Of 1913 will wear monocle. In fact
the fad has already struck New York
and on Broadway and Fifth avenue
the monocle is seen every day adorn-
ing the faces of up-to-date femininity.
More than year ago one Of the most
noted horsewomen In New York wore
a monocle at the horse show. 1t at
tractsd no end Of comment. Despite
the attention IL drew to her she con-
tinued to wear ton horseback, at
society functions. both in the after
noon and evening. The tiny piece OF
glass was in her left eye whenever
she was seen in public. Whether she
started the fad or 1t sprang up from
other sources is not known, but re-
Gently there has been q steady de-
mand for monocles at the big Jew
elry shops on Fifth avenue.
The smart young woman does not
wear q monocle on all occasions. She
allows 1t to dangle from her neck by
fine gold chain or narrow silk
ribbon. Now and then she raises 1t
to her left eye, but she never wears
1t for any great length of time. Most
Of the monocles that are sold on Fifth
avenue have tortoise shell rims. They
are more easily worn than the rim
less or even gold-rimmed variety.
According to several jewellers, the
hand monocle--a glass too large to be
worn in the eye, but which can be
raised to aid the vision-ls destined to
eclipse the smaller and true monocle
in popularity.

Everybody should be cutting
weeds.

Washington, August s2-Support'
ers of the administration Currency
Bill scored an important victory in
the House Democratic caucus today
when they brought to their aid an
unqualified Endorsement of the
measure from Secretary Bryan and
defeated proposed ''insurgent"
amendments that would have pro-
hibited interlocking directorates In
national and state banks incorpo-
rated under the proposed new law.
Secretary Bryan, in letter adj
dressed to Carter Glass, chairman
of the currency committee, approx
ed the bill .as it stands, declaring
President Wilson had recognized
fungamental rights of popular con
troll in its provisions. He asserted
that the plank of the Democratic
platform against lnterlocking direct
crates was aimed chiefly at trusts
and he urged Democrats to "stand
by the President" and not to load
down the Currency Bill with any
amendments that might endanger
its early passage.
The amendment over which the
fight waged throughout the day had
been offered by Representative
Medley of Kansas, one Of the So
called 'insurgent" members OF the
banking and currency committee
1t was not until nerr the close of the
session that Chairman Glass, after
declaring that President Wilson did
not want such an amendment in
corporated in the bill, brought forth
the Bryan letter.
And thus another effort of the
little Congressman from the Big
Seventh to secure free advertising
has been squelched by the mailed
hand of the Great Commoner.
The spectacle of mis-representa-
tive Medley fighting the Administra-
ton would be ludicrous were it less
serious. Medley offered his So
called amendment" in the Com
mittee where he. was coldly turned
down. He then carried his fight to
the floor of the House where he was
reinforced by the enemies of cur
rency legislation who sought to kill
the measure by loading it down
with ''amendments"-the usual tao
tics of Wall Street parliamentarians.
1t is great satisfaction to the
American people to know they have
a man at the head of the Depart
ment of State who has the courage
and the ability to bring refractory
members of Congress to time, but
it is a great humiliation to the DEM
ocrats of the Seventh Congressional
District to learn that their Congress
man must be sat down on hard by
the administration, upon whose
coat-tails he rode into office, before
he will be good.

Still another reports:
There is difference of opinion by
both the retailers and wholesalers as
to the quality of the western apples.
Those that are interested in the sale of
local apples contend that irrigated
fruits lack in quality. The majority OF
those | talked to contend that the west
ern apples are the best of the two
They are becoming very popular as eat
ing apples in this district, but the
trouble is that the retailers with high
rents ask such fancy prices, ranging
from three cents an apple to two
for quarter. The only salvation, it is
thought, is for the growers and others
interested to open distributing depots."
Another reports:
All classes express the opinion that
the western box apple for table and
fancy use will always be in demand on
account of the superiority of packing,
absence OF blemishes and good quality
which enables a better display and is
more attractive to the customers One
large dealer in eastern apples expressed
the opinion that the western growers
will become careless in their grading
and packing as years go on and that
the eastern apple will eventually crowd
them out, as more attention is being
paid here now to better packing. Some
dealers report that the pack of western
apples this year is not up to previous
years, probably due to inexperienced
labor which had to be used on account

Stimulating Demand

Considering the next question of
stimulating the demand, we are con
tronted with another problem which
obviously requires cooperative action
1T must be kept in mind constantly
that your high grade apples are III the
nature of luxury. They are not a
style for the masses such as other
forms of farm products. Your marke,,
therefore, while large, is also limited.
You can not expect the laboring Classes
to purchase box of your high grade
apples at price for which they can
purchase a barrel of eastern inferior
apples, but as | have said, notwith-
standing this condition, you have a
large market, sufficient, in my judg-
ment, to absorb not only your entire
present product, but the large increase
which is in sight, provided the mar
ket is properly stimulated, the supply
regulated so as To insure stability Of
prices aud your own inferior fruit kept
at home. This can be largely accom-
plished by proper and legitimate meth
DDS of advertising and by honesty in
dealing with the consumer
AS to advertising, you have an ex-
cellent example of what can be done in
the experience of the California citrus
fruit growers and the Hawaiian pine
apple growers; their situation is exact
ly identical with yours; their products
are also in the nature of luxuries and
they also have to overcome the handi-
cap of long distance from their princi-
pal markets; also in the case of citrus
fruits, their CROP like yours, is of
perishable nature, involving storage
problems.
Advertising California Citrus Fruit
The citrus fruit growers were losing
money steadily, just as you will be,
unless you make a radical change in
Your methods, and the situation became
so serious with them that they were
confronted with the alternative of 60
ing out of business entirely or getting
upon some plan for advertising and
marketing their product. They organ
lied an advertising and selling agency,
expanding for advertising the first
year 10000 The results were so sat
isfactory that they kept increasing
their advertising fund from year to
year, until last year the amount ex-
pended was 100000, and this year
they had decided to expend 100000,
had it not been for the freeze and the
consequent curtailment of their output.
Concluded next week.
