FASHION NOTES OF INTEREST.
THHE season Of holiday making
draws near. When We reach
the beginning Of May, summer
seems very close and the average
woman is much occupied with plans
for the spending Of the long. bright
days. Whether she will go 20 hotel,
to one Of the fascinating mountain
clubs or 20 her own home, there will be
needed suitable wardrobe and sum-
mer, in these days, means so many
occasions. so many different needs,
that the subject is one Of general
interest. As prelude to the real
holidays. there will be, Of course, the
closing Of the schools and Commence
ment with all It's attendant demands;
therefore, while the costume for golf,
the proper tennis outfit and the tramp
ing costume may lie nearest TO the
heart Of the younger contingent, the
pretty, dainty gowns make one Of the
first needs.
Since the season is one Of essentially
feminine effects and lovely fabrics,
such costumes are somewhat unusually
fascinating. Undoubtedly a very
generous amount of net. simple shadow
lace and similar transparent materials
will be used. This is the day Of
diaphanous effects and all these fabrics
are essentially youthful so that they
seem especially we'll adapted to this

light and airy in effect. Every device
is rcsorted to for producing that effect
and special underwear has been designed
for wear Herewith. There are little
decollete corset covers Of white --ash-
able tulle that are simple straight
strips laid in three wide tucks and
held over the shoulders by bands Of
ribbon. They are very pretty and
very dainty and, over the brassiere,
give perfect protection while they
add greatly to the hlmy effect Of the
gown itself. Net in several thick
nesses means perfect protection and
there is not the transparent effect that
at first would be suspected while the
general air Of ilmy lightness is charm
ing. Petticoats of net are worn also
beneath these thin gowns and they
contribute to the lightness without
meaning any bulk. for. as a matter Of
course, the slip beneath is Of the thin
nest, softest silk.
A practical gown that can be worn
with guimpe when needed and with
out for evening occasions is made Of
an exquisite quality of white crepe
combined with shadow lace. 1t Is
perfectly simple in design as are many

but it takes the most wonderful lines
and folds. The skirt is absolutely
without trimming but is draped over
each hip to give just a suggestion a

COMMON IRISH
POTATO IS SUNDER
SUSPICION NOW
The Question Now Arises
Whether or Not Those
Edibles Imported From
Canada and Europe Are
Likely to Bring in Dam
gerous Plant Diseases.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Dec 1S.-Whether
common Irish potatoes from Canada
New Foundland, Great Britain, Ire
land and Continental Europe should
be barred from the United States be-
cause of the danger of Importation of
dangerous plant diseases, or should
be admitted under the same restric-
tions as apply to nursery stock, was
the subject of a hearing today before
the federal horticultural board.
T. p. Gill, secretary of agriculture
for Ireland; DR.. H. T. Gussow, an eX-
pert of the Canadian department of
agriculture and G.. T. Holloran, dep
uty minister. of agriculture of Canada,
were among those who spoke in favor
of the admission of foreign potatoes.
Representations have been made to
the American department oG agricuI-
ture that in view of the short do
mestic potato crop. the exclusion of
foreign potatoes would go far toward
raising prices in the United States
Secretary Houston said the question
was not the lifting Of an embargo
against diseased potatoes, but wheth-
er a quarantine should be absolute or
administered so as TO admit entry Of
potatoes properly passed upon by gov
ernnent experts.
Senators and representatives pro-
tested against any policy whereby dis
eased potatoes might get into the
country A few members, however,
urged that it would be wise to per-
nit the entry of foreign potatoes in
the hope of reducing high prices OF
food.
DR.. Gussow declared that federal
experts had not made a sufficient in
vestigation Of the Canadian potato
crop upon which to base a recon-
mendation that the whole crop should
be barred because OF disease. He said
American agents had gone into Can
ada to investigate potatoe disease
without cooperating with
him
