Summer Fallow.

The summer fallow method hos
been tried to . limited extent in
northern Iowa. The land is plowsd in
the spring, disked and narrowed at
least once week during the entire
season; the frequent cultivation brings
the roots to the surface and the direct
sun destroys them.
This method means . loss Of the
crop and is not to be recommended for
expensive Iowa meadow and pasture
land. When meadow or pasture has
been down for several years the root
stocks are found much closer to the
surface Of the ground than in cult
waited fields. In order to destroy
the quack grass the sod can b cut
TO depth of about three inches. In
week the disk should be used.
When the disking ID thoroughly
done repeat the operation in = week
or ten days, continuing this during
the dry weather Of the fall. This will
probably kill vast majority of quack
grass roots.
Tafred Paper Method.
Tarred paper method is advisable
where there is only q small patch Of
quack grass. In laying down the tar
red paper the edges should be over
Tapped carefully to exclude light. One
should be careful Also to let the tar
red paper extend some distance be.

grass roots are sometimes three feet
long. Six weeks of hot weather will
kill them out. A covering Of straw
or manure is frequently used in
bringing the roots to the surface
where there has been shallow cult

Sorghum Method.
When this method is used, especial
ly where the quack grass has been in
small grain, the infested ground
should be given shallow blowing as
soon as the oats, wheat, or barley
has been cut. Plow shallow and disk,
exposing the roots to the sun. AS
soon as the quack grass comes
through the ground, harrow the field;
repeat this often as may be necessary
through the months of August and
September as these months are FIRE.
quently dry. This will help to destroy
a large number Of roots for the next
season.
The next season, when the soil is
in good condition, sow sorghum a,
the rate of IL to 2 bushels per acre
The sorghum will crowd out the
quack grass. There is no other meth
cd as good as this.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Z VERIFYING is trimmed with fur
II and already furriers are making
up in what are called millinery furs"
limitations Of martin, ermine, skunk,
leopard. moleskin. mink and sealskin.
These furs are used in bands and are
used for trimming muffs, turbans,
neckpieces and dresses. They border
gowns at the hem, and sleeves ct the
wrist. Occasionally high-necked
blouse shows a narrow band of fur
hugging the throat.
But it is in millinery and muffs
(Which are made of velvet or other
fabrics) that fur bands appear as an
indispensable part of the composition.
Round, close-fitting turbans, Oriental
turbans. small hats. a few of the larg-
er ones that are beginning to emerge
from their eclipse. are all taking to
themselves the luxury and suggestion
of warmth and comfort which is lent
them by the fur band.
Millinery furs are called by the
names of the furs they initiate, as
"sealskin." fox" martin" mole,
leopard" "ermine." 1t is more than
likely that Molly Cottontail provides
many Of the skins which are trans
formed by furriers into almost any
thing they wish to initiate. The op
possum. the skunk, the muskrat, the
coyote and others have and help out
in providing furs for trimming, be
cause there is a tremendous and in
creasing demand for them. The skins
of these people of the wild are so dis
guised by the dyeings and marking
and piecings and clippings of fur
riers that their masquerading is &C
cepted easily. No qualifying 'imita
ton" prefiXes their borrowed names
They are used in the handsomest o

but short-haired furs, not so bulky. |
are invariably this season cut either |
narrow or wide.
In passing, it may be mentioned |
that furs must not be cut with scis-
sors. The home milliner or dress |
maker may cut them satisfactorily by
marking line with tailor's chalk on
the skin side of the pelt and cutting
along this line with a razor blade. In
sewing seams two edges are held to-
gether and overcast. Furriers use
triangular needle and it is far easier
to sew skins with than the round
needle. All three edges are cutting
edges.
1t will be seen from the picture that
the muffs and hats are made to
match, while the neckpieces are odd
of another kind of fur or plush. This
is only a fancy not an established
fashion. The vogue of plain skirts
with plush jackets to match il color
| does away with the need of a neck,
piece other than band of fur around
the collar. With such a suit hat
and muff to match, trimmed with fur
like that on the collar, is delightfully."-
chic and also delightfully."- comfortable.

The materials used for the muffs
and turbans are many, velvets,

crepes, wide heavy brocaded ribbons
satins and chiffon all contribute to
the making up of these smart acces
sories.
Muffs are fiat and soft. Lace is
