COUNTY COURTS DO NOT

LA GRANDE. Ore, Sept. 22.-That
eastern Oregon is anxious to have the
Lincoln highway come via Baker, La
Grande and Pendleton. but that the
three counties do not fancy paying
$500 each to the state engineering
department for expense money with
which to survey the road, is apparent
from a canvass of the three county
courts involved.

500 in each county to run the surrey

cides to run the road through eastern

cent, in value. Most of tic increase in tonnage was derived from the Ignite mines, whose output showed a gain of 190,4o1 tons; the produc- ton of bituminous coal increased o0,- 0S1 tons. In point of value, however. the advantage was as much ill favor of bituminous coal as the gain in quantity was in favor of Ignite. The value of Ignite increased by $123,971, |, while the value of the bituminous product incl eased by $409,205.
 The coal beds of Texas belong to three of the geologic systems-the Carboniferous, Cretaceous, and the Tertiary. The Carboniferous coals are found in the north part of the state, the principal mining operations being in Estland, Palo Pinto, Erata, Wise, and Young coun- ties. The Cretaceous coals occur ill the southern part of the state and are mined chiefly near Eagle Pass, ill Maverick county. The coals of this district, which extends into New Mexico and arc mined extensively at El FeniX, near Sabinas, and at EsperanZas, are. classed as bitumil- ous coals and in the southern DOT tions of New Mexico make fair grade coke. The Ignite beds are of enormous extent and occur in wide belt which stretches from the Sabine on the northeast to the Rio Grande on the southwest. Like the Cre-tace- ous coals these seem to improve i'll quality to the southwest, and near I in Iiupit to is changed to a higher-grade coal, approaching camel in character and classed as bituminous. The princi- pal Ignite operations have been car ried on in Anderson, Zastrop, Fayette Henderson, Hopkins, Houston, Lee, Leo, Medina, Milan, Rains, Robertson Shelby, Titus, Van Zandt, and Wood counties.
 The development of the Ignite re- sources of Texas began ill the closing decade of the nineteenth century, and except for a temporary setback i'll 1902 and 1903 after tine discovery of petroleum near Beaumont, has pro- gressed steadily with the develop ment and growth ill population. Lig- mite Is found to be an excellent fuel for the gas producer, and the vast resources of Texas in this regard posses great potentialities for the future.
 The first, record of the production of bituminOus coal in Texas is con- tained in the volume Mineral Re sources of the United States. 1884, which states that the quantity mixed in that year was 125,0 900 tons. The total production of Ignite and bitum- inous coal in 1913 was almost twenty times the output of 1884. Il

ENTER MINISTRY IS
 FEMININE CRAZE.
Women of the Church of England Seek to Enter
 the Priesthood.

London, Aug. S.-The latest femi- nine craze is to enter the ministry. Ordination of women to the priest hood of the Church of England is rapidly becoming a matter of prac- tical politics in certain church cir cles.
 Matters have gone so far that a conference of clergymen's wives and unqualified church workers is like ly to be held in the near future to discuss this new and startling de- parture from recognized custom. A great mail has been despatched far and near and the bulk of the replies received favor both the conference and the ordination of women.
 Those who are backing the scheme with their patronage have ready the usual stock of arguments at hand. It is held, for instance, that the priest hood is not necessarily a masculine office it is human office, not a sexual one: the brilliant careers oi various abbesses, Lady Superiors. and the yeoman work they have done in such cases as that of the Abbess of the Sacre Occur, recently dissolved in UParis, go to show the glorious service women have rendered to the cause of Christianity in all parts of the world. If women can be mission aries, why not clergymen? The Church. which is always conservative is of course opposed to the step. They may sit on church councils. but they must not interfere with the male prerogatives. On motion at the Representative Church Council that women should sit as law representa- lives of Diocesan conferences, etc One hundred and forty-one votes to 76 knocked it out The church papers strongly oppose the idea.

FEMININE FASHIONS.

New York, Aug. G.-Drcssmakcrs On advance models in gowns for both stret and house wear are paying particular attention to trimmings Embroidery has enjoyed a great vague and indeed, there is nothing more effective as a garniture for linenes, silk, chiffon, etc., but braid is coming into it's own. This trim ming will be used extensively on frocks for early autumn wear, especl- ally the tailored models.
 There are many different kinds Of braid. The plain little soutache o. delightful memory comes in many new guises-with scalloped and cor rugated edges, with colofed piplngs, lace scallops, etc., and they arc all exceedingly chic. Being stamped with the mark of novelty they will attract much attention as soon as they be- come better known. One of the most attractive of the new braids Is pas mcnterie braid which comes in black. 1t is welted as in mourning crepe, but with the lines running diagonally. On some of the smartest suits the trimming is used il two widths, the border one measuring about an inch aYoss and the narrower d quarter of aFinch. Set a half inch apart the liner braid heads the other at the hem of the skirt and outlines the collar and the fronts of the jacket, whether it be double or single breas- ed in effect.
 The flat effect of these novel braids is not unlike that of the strip Cd ribbon borderi1gs on some of the lightweight serge frocks. No other type of garnishing so clearly breaks tH silhouette.
 / 1loire and satin arc also to be used the decoration of summer frocks. All dresses being made now for the end of the summer are planned wlth a view to further service in the fall. indications of what will be fashion able on trotteur costumes next aut- ulnn are shown by a few of the mod els of lightweight gabardine and sat f lil which have already been launched One of these has satin undersklrt- Dy no means a nOvelty-a shawl col lar and half cuffs. Satin patch pockets are on the hips of its clrcu- iarcut, long Overskirt. Thinning the oVerskirt six inches above it's hem are eight closely set lines of braid made of finely twisted threads.
 Frocks for teas and dances show ths- skirts almost covered with ruf- lies of all widths and sizes. The tunic erect is preserved by having the 1rllls stop just about where the tunic would end and below this point the foundation is very narrow. The way some of the skirt extension skirts are trimmed remind one woegully of the pictures of young girls of many years ago whose "unmentionables" were given more of show than has neen dared in this generation.

FARMER RAISES SUNFLOWERS. Cultivated Them Like Corn and the
 Seed is Profitable.

Rockport, Ind, Aug. S.-The cul- ture of sunflowers is the aewest wrinkle among the farmers of Spen- cercounty. Almost 5000 acres were planted in sunflowers this year. The new crop, which brings between $6C and $S5 an acres, is good Substitute for tobacco.
 The cultivation of the sunflower resulted from the successive failures of the tobacco crop. The cultivation of sunflowers is the same as that ot corn and the seeds are thrashed much like wheat The plans grow 8 to 10 feet in height, and the harv- esters go through the fields in wag- ons. cutting off only the pods. which are placed in barns to be thrashed when there is little farm work ot be done. Single pods yield as much as a peck of seed.
