blouse that looks as though it were
made to be worn minus the outside
covering. Some women have their
vests made without the sleeves, to
be worn over a white long-sleeved
blouse. but the best are those of long
sleeves, for put on over anything else,
this vest becomes heavy and hot.

For MOTORING.

Even for motoring thick white
ratine is most successfully built into
smart motor coats. This ratine looks
almost like the popular pilot cloth,
only white. These coats are perfect
ly but plainly cut and have no trim
ming, except a thick double cord that
forms a shaped girdle and fastens the
coat on one side with an ornamental
looped motif The coat can be worn
open at the throat if preferred, when
1t forms a new shaped rever on one
side only.
But the distinctive note is the or1gi-
nal scarf effect formed, when it is
closed and the scarf all in one piece
Grapes round the neck and falls tas-
seled end on the left down below the

sleeves, with the natural shoulder
line, and set perfectly plain into the

self as fully as possible by reading
good pigeon literature, let him give
his stock that careful attention indis-
pensable to the well-being of all living
things, and it will not take a very tai
ented prophet to predict a result quite
at variance with the one first outlined.
Squads die in the nest or are found
on the floor or do not fatten up prop
erly, when the old birds are not fed
properly A young squad is not to be
compared with young chick. A very
young chick can run about and help
Itself to food and water and the other
necessities of life; whereas the squad
is utterly helpless at its birth, and is
unable to walk and must be fed in the
nest by the parent bird and with what
ever the parent birds may feed it.
The watchful pigeon man is the one
who gives his flocks the best of care.
He keeps them in health by noting the
first signs of ailment.

FUR TRIMS SUMMER COATES
Chinchllla, Swansdown and Ermine

So many evening wraps and dressy
short coates are trimmed in fur that
It looks as though the garnish would

a touch to evening wraps, while for
the jaunty little abbreviated coatee,

How tuberculosis Is spread.

Based on figures obtained from
cases of tuberculosis reported in
Cleveland. New York and other cities
where thorough registration of con-
sumptives is employed, 1t is esti-
mated that for every death from con-
sumption in the United States, of
which there are on an average 200,-
600 annually, there are constantly
more than five living cases, making
at least 100000 in all. OF these mil
lion living cases. it is estimated that
the health authorities have records of
not more than 100000 to 10000, or
one in every eight or ten, and that,
for the great majority of cases re-
corded, no hospital, home or dis
pensary care is provided. Practically
nothing can be done to control the
spread of tubel cnlosis in the unre-
ported cases.

FOR WEAR IN THE COUTURE
Numerous Ornaments in Order If
Woman Would Follow the Elk
tremes of Fashion.

II she would be very well equipped
there are many little accessories for
her tresses that the modes demand.
If, for instance, the hair is worn low,
there are certain heavy hairping OF
plain real or imitation shell to hold
the knot in place. And more elabo-
rate are the mounted hairpins, with
imitation jewels-these, of course, for
dress and evening wear.
Combs and barrettes of real shell
beautifully marked-are chosen by the
woman who wears her hair high and
keeps her tresses smooth and firm in
the back by their use
Very effective are the ornaments
studded and inset with rhinestones.
Some of the designs are most artistic
and the stones beautifully set. To
give the effect of those exquisite orna-
ments which are set in platinum, the
French jewelry designers have used
the rhinestones in a silvery metal
that has the rhinestone finish, and
wonderfully good looking the combi-
nation is. One may have this in bar
rettes, those pretty bandeaux, hair
pins, and mounted combs.

ERRORS OF BEGINNER
Element of Common Sense Often
Is WoefuIIy Lacking.
Having BIundered In Initial Move He
Now Proceeds to Growing Folly
OF Purchasing Cheap Stock
Way for Success.

Practically all beginners are honest
In their belief in the business, but it
seems at times that the simple ele-
ment of common sense is woefully
lacking in the majority of cases-per-
haps because common sense is not so
common after all, writes w. B. Thorn
as, in Utility Pigeons.
Having Numbered in his initial
move, he now proceeds to the. crown
ing folly of which he can be guilty
he buys cheap stock because it is
cheap. He is either victimized by the
proverbially conscienceless dealer, or
he takes the stock OF some fellow who
has already demonstrated himself a
failure; in either case he gets a sorry
lot of birds.
Now suppose that instead of com
hitting the usual folly, the beginner
applies a little of that golden specific
that / mentioned common
sense. Instead of an old shack, sup
pose he provides a good rat-proof
house, built on plans approved by ex-
perienced breeders; then suppose he
looks up some good, reliable breeder

Meat Ration for Hens.

The effect of meat rations for hens
was tested at the West Virginia ex-
pertinent station, where one pen of
fowls received a ration largely of corn
and other starchy grains, while another
pen was fed partly on meat and fresh
bone. The meat-fed fowls laid 1856
eggs, while the granted fowls laid
3,431,So less than one-half as many
as those receiving the heterogeneous ra-
ton. The eggs from the meat-fed
fowls were larger, much firmer, rather
better and produced far more vigorous
chickens than those of the others.
Both lots of fowls remained in a
healthy, vigorous condition.

SOWING SEEDS TOO DEEPLY
Hardly Be Covered Too Lightly
With the Soil.

More seeds are probably killed by
sowing or covering too deeply than
too lightly
1t is no uncommon thing to find
small seeds covered with a quarter
or over half an inch of soil.
Thousands so deeply sown perish,
germs either never come to life at all
or are quite unequal TO coping with
such weight of covering earth.
Only the larger seeds of vegetables
should be sown from quarter to one
inch in depth.
Peas, beans and such like seeds may
go underground two or three inches
but the smaller vegetables and flower
seeds can hardly be covered too light
~, provided they are covered.
1t should always be borne in mind
that deep sowing ruins more seeds
than any other fault or mistake.
