state has gone forward in its develop.

lductive, waste lands have been re-
Fclaimed. Resources of state better

For the first half of the present
administration, the state finds itself
with surplus in the general fund.
Under the state debt refund of
Sill, 108,300, the state will pay under
the new plan $3,4OO,197.5O less In

The boards of many institutions
SHOULD be consolidated, and the sup

would devote their entire time to
the management. The lepers' home,
school for the deaf and dumb, school
for the blind improved during the
year, but more remains to be done
lat these institutions.
The general assembly should pro-
vide means to construct and main

The present system Of taxation ia
unjust, inefficient and inadequate for
the needs of the state. The state
has no control over the sources OF
Its own revenue. Plans are suggest

The agricultural and immigration
department. is suffering from q lack
of system. Efficient service cannot
be expected as long as present con-
ditions exist.
The livestock sanitary board should
be given more liberal support. Sug-
ar planters are going into stock in

Levee work has been continued
along the old lines in the hope that
The federal government may respond
to its national duty by assuming full
responsibility for effective control of

among the people of the valley can
bring this about.
A 'drainige department of the

WAISTS OF CREPE De CHINE
Ones Own Selection Of coIors Allowed
-seml-TaiIored and Dressy De-
signs the Most Popular.

Bottle white and colored crepe de
chine, particularly czarina green, ap-
ricot and rust browns, taupe, Turco,
Copenhagen and plum, are favored as
waist materials this season, says the
Dry Goods Economist.
Comparatively few of the strictly
tailored styles are being worn, as
semi-tailored and dressy designs are
more suitable for wear with the fancy
types of suits and separate skirts that
are now the vogue. At no previous
time has the tendency for the outside
finish been so marked This applies
particularly to the waistcoat designs,
but styles which call for wide girdles,
short sashes and godet frills are also
included.
Colored chiffon waists are shown In
some very attractive styles. the col
ors over white lace or net being ex-
ceedingly we'll liked. Owing to the
sheerness and softness Of the combin-
ed laces and chiffons. they meet the
requirements of present fashions more
than any other materials. Special
styles In these waists are also being
brought out for the holiday trade,
these newest models representing the
high colors, such as the oriole and
minaret yellows, Eco blue, Bermuda
red, hunter green, etc.

CAREFULLY GULL ALL RUNTs
Best Way 10 70 XIII Them on ~ Soon
40 Birds Show Pronounced syinp-
toms-Feed 10 Wasted.

There are sure to besa few runts
In every flock. no matter how hard
the breeder may strive to guard
against them. Usually these runts
may be told from the time the little
chicks are Ave weeks old. The man.
ner in which they carry themselves
when moving around shows that they
can be nothing but runts when grown
up. No matter how hard you try or
how much feed you put into them.
they will be nothing but runts. The
feed and time taken to make their
growth will be practically wasted. as
the birds will never sell for one-tenth
what 1t cost to raise them.
Usually the best way is to kill them
as soon as they show pronounced
symptoms of being runts. II may ap-
pear cruel, but It Is better for the
birds and certainly better for the
grower. Removing them puts them
out Of their misery and insures that
the other birds will be healthier.
Runts invariably contract every dis
ease which is prevalent and carry It to
the healthier birds In the flock.
