DRUG HOUSE ENJOlNED
BY FEDERAL COURT

Judge jeremiah Neterer. of the
United States district court, to-day
granted a permanent Injunction in be-
half of the Centaur Company of New
York. the manufacturers of F1etchers
Castoria, against the Stewart &
Holmes Drug Company of this city.
The controversy arose from the sim
ulating of the labels of this well-known
preparation, and from the evidence
filed in the case 1t was shown that the
infringing label was first discovered
on sale in Honolulu. and was traced to
its origin here in Seattle.
The defendant company is one OF
the oldest and largest concerns OF Its
kind in the Northwest.
The decree carries with 1t an order
that the Stewart & Holmes Company
recall the goods which are on the mar
ket under the infringing label, and to
pay all costs in the suit and damages
assessed at $4O0.-Seattle, Wash

EOR present wear and for early
i spring the draped silk turban is to
the fore with more strength as q
demi-season hat than ever. 1t is
nearly always ''in the running" when
the race of styles comes on. This
season the vogue of draped hats and
the new high-slde shapes have made
for the popularity of the all-silk turban.
Two pretty examples of rather dash

them . long turban frame with a
moderately small crown is draped

A style suited to both brunettes and

ringlets over the forehead and ears.
It is noticeable that the hairdress

of the brow is becoming to most faces

MANY REASONS FOR HARROW
Besides Making Up Lumps. Allowing
Seeds to Germinate II Increases
Feeding Area OF Roots.

Some farmers are content with one
or two harrowings, or merely enough
to break up the largest Jumps and en-
able the seeds to germinate. But that
is not enough. We harrow to increase
the feeding area of the roots all
through the season by. giving them
finely divided soil in which to spread.
We harrow to put the soil in the best
possible condition to catch and hold
the rains. We harrow to warm the
soil, to aerate 1t and to promote the
activity of the germ life that Is so es
sential to its fertility. This means
that the ground should be gone over
more than is necessary to merely
break up the Jumps so that the seeds
will germinate. 1t means narrowing
and cross-harrowing, three times, four
times, six times, II necessary; or until
all of the upper four or five inches Of
soil upturned by the plow has been
made as nearly like an onion bed in
mellowness as the texture Of the soil
will permit.
It does not pay to skimp harrow

Of the farmers busy year A farmer

Thanks to skirts becoming more

to have pockets in their dresses again.
But will the new pocket relieve them
Of the necessity of carrying bag? Ap-
parently not, for since the pocket was

ber OF articles they usually carry about
with them has enormously increased.
Here, for instance. is what woman
generally carries in her bag:
