Every variation of the blouse costume
Is fashionable and, since nothing ever was
more becoming to school girls, each new
one is welcome. Here is most attractive
little frock with one of the simple blouses
TO be drawn on over the tld and a
straight skirt that is quite separate that
can be attached to an under waist or to
q belt. The under waist means perfect
freedom and comfort, holding the skirt
easily in place and being faced to form
a shield. The loose blouse belted and the
shorter blouse drawn up at the waist line
give really quite different effects yet there
is only the one garment, shorter in one
case and longer in the other. 1t will be
seen at a glance that such frock can be
made of one material throughout or Of
contrasting ones. Mothers who have
remodelling under consideration will be
glad of the two materials and, whenever
they are selected harmoniously, the result
is sure to be good one.
For the IL year size, the blouse will
require 312 yds. of material 27, as yds.
80, yds. a. in. wide; the skirt and trim
ming yds. ~ or SO, 214 yds. "A in. wide.

FOR FATTENING THE LAMBS
Experiments With shelIed Corn and
Alfalfa Hay Furnish Valuable
Comparison for Breeder.

W. c. Coffey, chief in sheep husband
~ at the University of Illinois, has
completed his experiments on the pro-
portion of shelled corn and alfalfa hay
for fattening Western lambs. The ex-
pertinent also furnishes a valuable
comparison OF the feeding and market
qualities OF wether and eve lambs and
shows the effects OF early and late
shearing on the feeding operations as
a whole.
Western lambs which had been pur-
chased on the Chicago market about
year ago were used in the experiment.
These were divided into two main
groups Group one was fed the largest
quantity Of corn that II was possible
to get the lambs to consume, with Just
enough hay to keep them healthy and
thriving. Group two was fed large
amount OF hay, with just enough corn
to put them In choice market condi-
ton.
In experiment or group one, four lots
OF wether lambs were fed as nearly as
possible like two of the lots of wether
lambs. In experiment No. 2 three lots
Of lambs were shared early and three
were sheared late.
In each experiment the lambs receiv-
ing the largest proportion OF corn made
the largest gains. The difference be-
tween wether and eve lambs In feed
ing and market qualities were slight.
Shorn lambs ate more feed than un-
shorn lambs In warm weather, but
there was little difference between
them in gains and no difference in
market quality. Lambs left in the
fleece until the end of the experiment
sheared from to 2.75 pounds per head
more than early-shorn lambs, and on
this account returned more profit.
