Distinctively Russian are the new
frocks, with their side-closing blouses
like 1918. They are smart and becom-
ing, and offer a chance to use com
bination of colors of fabrics-as, a
skirt of white ratine, and blouse of
pink or blue linen or ratine. Another
pretty combination is the blouse of
lowered crepe or voile, with skirt of
plain white voile. Then for afternoon
wear, the blouse may be of some
pretty brocade, with skirt of char
meuse matching the figure in the bro
cade. 1t is good way to use up rem
nants that can be picked up toward the
end of the season very reasonably. In
troduce some note of contrast in the
collar and girdle, and fasten with but
tons covered with self-fabric. Have
you noted the new silhouette that is
creeping into the present fashion? 1t
is just the shape of the pegtops little
boys play with, and this has given it
the name of the peg-top outline. The
skirt illustrated, 1914, shows this new
note in very simple form. There are
two sections, scanned at the side, and
toward the foot the fullness is held in
by a small plat, not stitched. but kept
in position by buttons. At the back is
the fashionable half-belt, that gives
such an effective finish. Patterns for
this blouse are obtainabIe in six sizes,
80 to AZ, and for the 36-inch size,
yards 36-inch material will be required.
The skirt is cut in sizes for misses, 16.
II and the l8-year size which is quite
large enough for small and medium
size women, calls for 22 yards 36-inch
Each pattern is fifteen
cents

LIKE THE SCHOOL GARDENS
What Children of Los Angeles Have
Done Those of Any Other Commu-
nifty May Copy.

Though it is but a small stretch of
years since first we heard of local
school gardens, the movement has
been one of the most rapid in deYel-
opment of anything touching public
life during that time. We 0 have
gardens at Is schools in this city with
$4,000 children actually working in
them from a half hour to three hours
a week, says the Los Angeles Times.
In addition about 15,000'of these chill
dren are doing some sort of gardening
at home. Surely this is a most salts
flying and gratifying showing, consid-
ering how recent and how crude
the beginning, and how feeble the
movement during the first year after
it's introduction. At first no support
or even encouragement a given it
by the local school officials, and funds
for it's launching and maintenance
were collected from an apathetic pub
lie by a few noble, Jealous club wom-
en-, who had more than a dream of
a glorious future for this great edu-
cational feature of modern school
life.

GARDENS TURNED INTO PARKS
Movement Started In Baltimore That
II Successful Will Make a Real
"City Beautiful"

Two years ago there was inaugu-
rated in Baltimore a movement, or
perhaps it might be better termed a
propagandism, which aimed at the
pulling down of the fences which
hedge the back lots that extend from
the real of dwellings to the midway
alleys, relates the American OF that
city. Each householder was expected
to beautify his particular back yard
by the planting of flowers or shrub
berry, or, at least, by raising a carpet
of grass. When all the ~householders
in a block act upon this suggestion
the result will be to create a small
park in the rear of their homes.
When the scheme is realized fully
the back window outlook will be upon
a spread of flower gardens-a bloom
ing small paradise.
The idea has not yet materialized
in a way to make Baltimore a city OF
flower gardens, all over and every
where, but about in spots there are
evidences that a good many house
holders have had their imaginatlons
touched by the poetic suggestion. The
home garden committee, which has
its headquarters at S12 Fidelity build
ing, is doing much to promote the
backyard garden movement.
Scattered over the city there are
thousands of back yards that are now
beautiful with blooms and green
shrubbery. In the majority of in
stances, however, these are boxed-in
affairs-each little garden is care
fully segregated from the neighbor-
ing gardens on either side. The pull
ing down of the division fences would
at once enlarge the vistas, and If all
the division fences on both sides the
midway alleys we're pulled down there
would be the effect of a diversified
garden park. There may be obstacles
in the way of pulling down the back
fences, but they are generally obsta-
Giles that can be removed. The con-
vincing evidence that the difficulties
can be obviated is that, in instances.
they have been obviated.

Smith one morning to them.

had to undergo two operations"
"Why, how was that?" questioned
Smith, in an agitated voice.
Because the doctor assigned to this

stripe down the back. 1t lives over
winter in sheltered places much the
same as chinch bugs and in the early
spring LAYS it's eggs in the alfalfa
stems. The larvae from these eggs
do the damage by feeding upon the
buds for a period of about six weeks
if unmolested.
Control methods recommended by
the Utah station include keeping the
alfalfa growing rapidly in the spring
by disking or spring toothing, remov-
ing the first crop rs soon as serious
injury occurs, followed with thorough
spring tooth and brush dragging, and
rotation of alfalfa every four or five
years. AS with chinch bugs it is ad-
visible to keep out of the way places

OATS AND BARLEY STUMBLE
Allow Sufficient Time for the
Weeds to Rot.

II the oats and barley land Is to be
drilled to grain in the fall, 1t should be
plowed in August to give time for the
weeds to rot and the ground to settle.
says a writer in the Baltimore Ameri-
can. If the ground is dry and SO hard
as to make it impossible to plow, put
three horses in the sulky cultivator. A
better implement is the steel cutaway
disk. Set the teeth to run deep and
cut the ground over. BY narrowing
the field lengthwise and then across,
most of the weeds a be turned under
and the hard surface broken up, max
ing 1t much easier to pillow as soon as
the August rains set in. The stubble
and weeds should be plowed under and
not burnt, as these, when rotted, add
to the fertility of the soil and tend to
make 1t capable of holding more nois-
ture. Long stalk or strawy manure
should either be spread evenly over
the field and plowed under or used as
a top dressing after the grain is
drilled in. If the is rotted and
fine, spread it on top of the plowed
ground and harrow it in as soon as
spread. The quickest and most eco
nomical method is to use a spreader,
as it can hen be spread evenly and
just the right quantity to the acre.
One of the great advantages in the use
of the spreader is in cutting up the
Jumps and strawy portions as it is be-
ing spread. Two men with a two-horse
tspreader will haul and spread more
manure than four men will spread
from wagon or cart. The manure
should not be put out in little piles, but
spread direct from the wagon and har-
rowed into the top soil before it dries
There is then no loss of fertility.

Horses for Deep Piowinq.

Deep blowing is essential to good
farming to increase fertility and mois-
ture for better crops. Heavy draft
horses, says the Live Stock Journal,
are the first essential for deep plow-
ing and big loads. Deep and shallow
blowing has had a long time con-
troversy and the deep blowing has
won the victory for better farming
by the scientific experts at the agricul-
tural colleges, and farmers who have
good draft-horse teams pillow deep,
and the farmers with light scrub
teams must still SKIM along and put
up with light crops until they a get
the heavy draft teams that can pull
a big 16-inch pillow down to the beam
that will produce big crops.

DISARMS THE ENEMY
PERHAPS IT WOULD BE MORE
CORRECT TO SAY "DIs-cLAWS."
Anyway, New Jersey Farmer Devised
a Scheme Which Resulted In Dis
comfiture to the Spoilers Of
His Hen Roosts.

Benjamin Groner. a farmer In the
Birds Eye Hollow neighborhcod. just
over the New Jersey line from Gosh
en-, in studying the habits Of hawks
noted that those prowling and snoop-
ing birds always perched on me
branch of some tree or on a high
fence or other good point for observa-
ton neal a poultry yard and from
there took a comprehensive view or
the surroundings and their possible
ties before s%wooping down on the con-
tents Of the yard. That set Farmer
Groner to thinking, and he thought to
such purpose that it resulted in his de-
vising a continuance which he believed
would be the ruination of every hawk
that came nosing about his premises.
He had a sythe blade made of the
best steel he could procure. He ground
and whetted the edge of the blade I'M
til it was as keen as keen could be.
Then he fastened the butt end of the
blade with bolts tight to a high pole
near the top, edge up, and at an angle
of 45 degrees. The pole he then set
in the ground, a few rods from his
poultry yard at the edge of a wood lot.
In the afternoon of the day he set
the trap a hawk came sailing along
over the tops of the trees. Farmer
Groner was in his barn and saw it and
watched it's manoeuver
The big bird circled about a few
+ip,as opd Than 5ropnod dorp an thA
outstretched scythe blade, which ap-
peared as a convenient point Of OBJ
servation.
The instant the hawk lit it began to
slide down the smooth slant of the
blade and the razorlike edge sliced it's
claws off as quickly and as neatly as
a meat cutter slices smoked beef, The
bird futtered to the ground, but as
its wings were still at its command it
flew away. And it has eve come
back to Farmer Groner's place again.
Going out to the trap pole and
finding the talons of the crippled
hawk, Farmer Groner knew that his
bordering over the ways of hawks
had resulted in a successful demon
stration of the conclusion he had
come to, and next morning he dis
covered that he had builded even
wiser than he knew, for he found a.
couple of sets of owl toes on the
ground beneath the scythe blade. He
had not calculated on owls, but hold
ing to the old fashioned belief that
those nocturnal providers were habi-
tual robbers Of hen foosts, he gloat-
ingly accepted the evidence of the eff
ficacy of his trap as an owl dis
courager. 1s@s
Ever since that installing of the
scythe trap for business on the Groner
farm it has been kept on duty, and
the frequent findings OF hawk and owl
claws scattered beneath it and the
noticeable increase in his poultry flock
are incontrovertible proof to Farmer
Groner that it is doing the work it
was planned to do. An owl or hawk
that lights on that terrible perch Is
forever untitled for stealing chickens,
for both birds capture their prey with
their claws.

A Stitch In Time.

Don't forget to fix the fences. A
trip around the pasture and field
fences now and then will often save
trouble, strength, and the time of hav-
ing to drive the cattle back into the
pasture. Animals are almost human
when it ome to going where some
one does not want them. Remove the
suggestion, therefore, by not allowing
