LATEST FASHION NOTES FROM

and wool ratine in a rather
indefinite check. or small plaid.
showing varying shades of tan and
brown with threads of green. The
skirt and the short coat are Of the
ratine but the trimming on the coat
and the short tunic are Of green duvtyn.
Shown, as it was, upon tall, svelte
model, the costume was really beauti-
full. ltrequires some consideration and
self control to remember that the tunic
Of color different from the coat and
skirt mean a cutting Of the figure and
that only the tall, slender figure could
look well so clothed. A more con-
sentative costume, bearing an equally
important name, is made of blue CAB
ardine with plain skirt, double tunic
and jaunty little jacket The skirt
and jacket are Of the duvetyn. The
tunic and the frills that edge the jacket
are Of taffeta in the same color and the
note Of contrast and brilliancy is found
in the collar and girdle of figured
novelty cloth. 1t is not less smart
than tine ratine costume. 1t gives the
newest and latest lines and there is a
contrast Of materials and the fact that
one color is preserved throughout will
render it far more generally becoming
than the contrasting tunic can ever be.
The designers offer US the models and
il is for each one Of us to determine
which one is adapted to our own need.
Il is surely our own weakness and not
the fault Of Others Il VIC go astray.

Contrast Of materials will often
bring about as beautiful result as con-
trast Of color and we will use all sorts
Of fabrics together this season, silk
with handsome cotton stuffs quite as
well as with wool and with other silks
and touches of trimming can be util-
lied to give the brilliant note that
seems so insistently called for by pre-
vailing styles that it is difficult to avoid
mentioning it again and again.
The severe, simple tailor made COS
tune is seldom found this season ex-
cept for the most prosaic morning
use and for the hardest service.
What is known as the demi-tailored
costume is the preferred one and
the one that will be generally worn
while silk costumes and silk gowns
with fascinating little wraps unques-
tionably will make a feature Of
afternoon occasions. Every kind Of
short, jaunty little coat is worn and
frequently the coat will be OF diff
ferent material from the skirt. as a
brocaded or a fancy material over a
plain taffcta or a taffeta in embroid-
cred flowers over a plain one. For
the carly season when some little
warmth is required over the shoulders
and about the neck. there arc ex-
quisite little neck ruchcs and ruffs
Of lace and tulle that are always be-
coming. and the very latest Paris
fancy is to arrange these rufs within
the collars that fare away from the
figure. the soft material resting about
the throat and filling the opening in an
altogether attractive and becoming
manner.

Perhaps few persons are cog
infant of the fact that Tangipa-
no parish has made such wonder
full strides during the past quart
er of century from an agricul-
tural viewpoint that to-day she
stands at the top of the ladder,
according to the last agricultural
statistics. This parish showed
the highest production per acre
of any parish or county in the
United States, namely, 500 per
acre. Only a few years previous
it was hard work to raise pump
kin on some of the land in this
parish, but to-day practically all
crops are cultivated. with the
possible exception of wheat. Oul
vegetables are the finest produc-
ed in the South. Our strawber'
ries command the highest mar
Iket prices in the United States
while our climate and water are
envied with a jealous eye. I'm

wonder Tangipahoa parish is re
garded as the most resourcefu

Washington. D. c., Sept. IA.
Lauderdale county, Miss. and
Tensas parish, La. were releas-
ed from quarantine for Texas
fever tick on September l, as
part of nearly 1000 square miles
of southern territory which had
been freed from this pest. 1t
It seems that both of these coun-
ties made unusual progress in
getting rid of the tick and SO put
ting themselves in q position
where their cattle could be ship
ped to market without quaran-
tine restrictions, and also where
they can safely import northern
cattle for breeding or dairy pur-
poses.
Lauderdale county began tick
eradication in earnest on April
/, 1914. and through the active
cooperation of the local and Fed
|eral authorities have succeeded
lin Kidding the county of this
costly and dangerous pest in five
months.
In Tensas parish the police
jury appropriated Sc. 200 for tick
eradication work in January,
1914. The building of cattle Dip
ping watts was commenced in
February, and early in April ac-
tive dipping of cattle was inaug-
urated. Federal. State and coun-
| ty authorities and individual cat
tie owners cooperated harmon
iously, SO that Tensas parish al
SO joined the white area on Sep
TENDER l.
The success of these two quick,
intensive campaigns has stimu-
lated cattle owners in other
counties to consider similar plans
in their own neighborhoods. and
lit is believed that the coming
year will see unusual activity in
these two States in extending
the territory that is free from
the expensive and troublesome
quarantine restrictions,
/ To help those who are individ-
ually interested in dipping cattle
to eradicate the tick, the Depart
ment Of Agriculture has prepar-
ed special bulletins on the Dip
ping of cattle and the prepare.

Cofax Men to "Buy-a-Bale'
Mass Meeting Adopts Instructions to Sellers and Buyers
of Cotton and Appoints Committee to Look
After Distress" Cotton
Plan Applies Only to Actual Growers

The plan adopted is similar to
the one adopted throughout the
entire South, and is a patriotic
movement with a two-fold pur-
pose-remove from the market
as much of the 1914 crop as is
necessary to raise the price of
cotton to its intrinsic value, and
to relieve as much distress"
cotton as practicable. Distress"
cotton is that cotton which the
planter is compelled to sell. If
a planter is able to hold his own
cotton for Zoe the committee viii
not attempt to take his cotton
off his hands. He is expected to
hold it until the "Buy-a-Bale"
movement has retired enough
cotton from the market to bring
the price up to 10c or more for
middling.
The following persons have
subscribed to the plan. and have
agreed to buy the number of
