ILLINOIS AND IOWA
most CULTIVATED STATES

WASHINGTON. FEB. is. - The
back TO the soil movement still has
plenty OF room to grow according to
Figures just made public by the De-
partner, Of Agriculture which shows
that there are today S33,OOOOOO acres
OF tillable land in the Unlted States
which has never been turned by a
plow In fact. only twenty seven per
cent OF the land of this country ca
pable Of being farmed is now under
cultivation. The remaining 73 per
cent does not include 61.OOO,OO0 acres
which arc non-tillablc but valuable
for pasture or fruit growing.
The most thoroughly cultivated
states are Illinois and Iowa, where
for every acre titled there is 1.6 un-
titled. Indiana is next with a ratio
of one to Is; in New York it Is one
acre titled to "a untitled. and that
proportion is general throughout
New England. Arizona has the
greatest proportion Of untitled land,
having fO.t available acres idle for
every acre on which crops are now
raised. In New Mexico It is one TO
3l.2; in Nevada one to 2S3. and in
Montana one to 25. California's rat
ing shows one TO 61.
The entire United States. excluding
foreign territory contains l.9O0,-
100000 acres. OF this about 60 per
cent OF 1.114.000,O00 acres. is esti-
mated to be tillable including that
which, though not tillable at present
may be made SO by clearing. lrrigat-
ing or draining. About nineteen per
cent is tit only for fruit or forage
crops and 2l per cent will probably
never be OF any use from an agricul-
tural standpoint.

An extensive study Of methods oil
preventing the shrinkage OF. cattle
shipped on the hoof has Just been
concluded by the Department of Ag-
r'culture. The methods promise to
save hundreds OF dollars to tho far
mers and stock raiscrs. Heretofore Il
has not been uncommon for a steer
TO reach the stock yards weighing
from 60 to 10 pounds less than when
II left the farm, but by proper feed
ing this may be materially reduced.
In 265 shipments Of cattle, compris-
ing 10000 head. the loss ranged from
PA to Z per cent, depending on the
length OF the time the cattle were en-
route. the treatment they received en-
route, and what they had in their
stomachs when they started. steers
show less shrinkage than COWS but
the difference is not as great as many
shippers suppose.
III cattle are to be in transit "a
hours or longer, II is a good plan
/ to feed about two bales of nice bright
! hay for each carload. a few hours be-
fore loading, is the advice Of the de-
I partmont. There is no way OF entire
4 ly preventing shrinkage. but by judic-
ious care in the handling and feeding
the cattle just previous to shipping
the shrinkage may be lessened The
shrinkage OF fed cattle does not difer
greatly from that of range cattle fed
for equal periods of time. Cattle fed
on silage have a largo gross shrink
age. but usually all so we'll when
fed at tho market that the net shrink
age is small. Pulp fed cattle shrink
more in transit than any other class
of cattle and also show a greater net
shrinkage. For a long journey the
common method OF unloading for feed
water and rest is preferred to the
use Of feed and water cars"

Efforts 10 dodge the boil wocvil by
planting cotton late have been proven
fruitless by the government bureau
Of entomology. in spite of the theory
that prevails very generally through
the south. In fact the most recent
experiments along this line show that
late crops are a decided disadvantage.
In one field in Louisiana last year
l.125 we're picked from an acre that
had been PLANTED early. while i'm an
adjoining field. that had been planted
late. the yield was but $50 pounds
per acre. In another instaace
field planted May p produced but
one-fourth of a bale per acre, though

Attainabie Beauty
Fo- Most Women at
No Expense
New-York tribune., 1914-07-05

de la Paix is making specially OF
1880 models this year. and some OF
them are charming. For example. a
close fitting shape with very mar
row brim, made Of leaf green rice
straw and bound with green silk. AT
regular intervals round the high
crown large velvet dahlias, IN nat
ural colors, were placed.
These flowers were beautifully
made, and the dark flowers had light
centres. while the hearts OF the pale
dahlias were quite dark: each flower
was framed in its own leaves and
stalks were very much in evidence.
French Like Artificial Flowers.
The use of artificial flowers has al
ways been an important factor IN
French costuming, but this years
productions are reaching the height
of artistry and attractiveness. Scarce
iy a gown in Paris is made without a
touch of artificial flower somewhere,
giving an accent OF lightness and
color that nothing else quite equals.
For evening gowns nothing more
effective has ever been presented
than the garlands running diagonally
from shoulder to waist. They are a
garniture which lends itself most
gracefully to the adornment of the
newest gowns, and an old costume is
completely rejuvenated by the addi-
ton Of simple wreath OF flowers
we'll chosen as to color and size, for
too large a garland gives one May
queen aspect.
Gown Wrcathed with Garlands.
One beautiful tulle gown OF sap
phire blue was thus wreathed in
small silk roses of pampadour red.
A black gown has crimson azaleas.
and with a white costume was used
a garland of green hyacinths, shad-
ing from light to dark.
These flower trimmings are not

water lily. and still another had
three little brown orchids Of the lady
slipper variety.
There is new rose which resem-
blcs an elongated cabbage head, very
stiff and usually coming in cluster
Of two contrasting colors. With a
white tafieta gown was worn one OF
these couplets in orange and purple.
The use OF artificial flowers ex-
tends 10 every article of woman's at
tire. Parasols are decorated with
them. fans show delicate borders OF
tiny blossoms; they are pressed INTO
service for slipper rosettes, and even
lend themselves to the decoration OF
lingerie.
Dark Red Carnations for Men.

"HE dance tea. which our Amer
lean colony has made so FASH
ionable and which has very
little in common with the tango teas
Of yesterday, has made us familiar
with fascinating millinery creation
the Castle dance hat. This bewitch-
inc little affair was launched by Mrs.
Vernon Castle, the famous dancer,
and American buds" have made
their own of it. Undoubtedly, 1t is
charming; close fitting in shape, and
composed of the most dainty mate
rials. such as quilted lace and chiffon,
pleated tulle, ruched silver gauze, etc.
These little hats-or caps-should
be semi-transparent, with a supple
crown mounted on light wire frame.
An ideal trimming would be wreath
of wild flowers and ferns, or single
beautiful rose apparently hanging
from the close fitting brin:.
Water lilies would look well on a
black lace hat. or black and white
blowaways on a model composed OF
ruched chiffon in a subtle shade OF
rose pink; or again. supple silver
tulle. with large black velvet rose,
set in dari. green leaves, dropping
over the hair at the back.
A Happy Revival of Pink and Black.
The revival of black and pink ef-
fects shows that the expected not in
frequently happens. Big, transparent
hats made of fine black lace are
trimmed with a couple Of giant pink
roses surrounded by dark brown
leaves and many stalks. A model of
this order which pleased me very
much had one exquisite rose thrown
carelessly on the fiat brim near the
front, and similar flower tucked
away underneath the brim at the
back.
A smart variation of the omnipres-

with pretty buttons or jaunty bows.
The muslin gown with its wealth
of hounces defines fashions deter
mination to depart from the tight
skirt and to reinstate the more close
fitting bodice and sleeves of long
past years.
1t is the prettiest possible bodice.
with its kerchief folds. and when de-
veloped in taffeta marks the change
distinctly and makes one wonder
whether once more the whirligig OF
the modes will veer around again to
waists, by which / mean, Of course,
small waists. Comparing the present
frocks with thost Of last year makes
the alteration in the silhouette con-
vincingly defined.
EVENING DRESSES MUCH TRIMMED
The evening dress is more
trimmed than the daytime one.
though the two share a disposition
toward the use of embroidered tulle
and lace. Debutsntes are wearing
silver lace, which in delicate patterns
looks very charming, breaking the
line OF a pleated chiffon tunic, and
silver ball fringe is a good choice for
them. Their cross-over sleeves. too,
are charming. for they are very
light and yet dress the upper arms
which in girlhood are not sufficiently
statuesque to look we'll when uncov-
cred entirely. Handkerchief corners
of lace are taken and folded over,
after which the points are attached
to crystal bead shoulder bands or
little straps of silver rosebuds.
Dowarers Wear Steel Lace.
A novelty for the dowager is steel
lace. which has a richer and darker
ASPECT than the fine silver lace her
daughter wears. 1t lights up bril-
liantly upon shell-pink taffeta. with
a mist-like sheen Of green upon it,
end is repeated by tassels and skele-
ton flowers all made Of beads.
Bead flowers are very pretty
means Of introducing color to
white dress. and as an example may
be cited a taffeta frock for a girl
with a tulle ruche at the hem OF the
tunic and above it narrow garland
of forget-me-nots and rosebuds all
embroidered in beads. For the bod
ice there is white tulle cross-over

races. and always stand out most
restfully and smartly in the sea OF
plumagc.
Even Dogs Wear Flowers.
The wearing of arutclsl flowers
extends even to the small dogs that
daily 60 with their mistresses to
walk in the Bois. Often a collar, or
harness. is seen covered with small
flowers, such as violets, bluets and
very tiny roses. A wonderful collie
appeared one morning with two red
carnations tied to his collar. This
does seem to be going too far. and in
defence of canine tas:e, 7 am glad to
relate that they were promptly
chewcd up by French bulldog.
The effect OF elimination Of
aigrettcs and paradise is nothing
compared with what would happen
should law take away our artificial
flowers. for there would be absolute
ly no substitute and no consolation.
An American debutantc recently
appeared at an embassy garden
party in flounced frock Of chalk
white tulle with big sash in pale
blue gauzc ribbon and big black k
picture hat trimmed with a single
black ostrich feather Of great beauty.
AT her breast there was a cluster OF
moss roses, and her gloves were inn
menscly long and in pearl gray
suede. Every one declared that she
was stunning"
The kerchicf Corsagc and the Cuirass,
Everywhere is to be observed the
cross-over design. 1t is as plainly to
be seen influencing the evening
trock's corsage as the daytime cape
and the bolero. for which has been
discovered the pleasing finish OF two
wisps OF material crossed upon the
