bined with white chiffon taffeta formed
the materials used for one Of the
smartest vests seen this season, and
which is shown in the illustration.
The body Of the vest is made of fine
net shirred or the shoulders and
again shirred at the bottom into a
waistcoat or high girdle which fas-
tens at the front with three crystal
buttons. At the armholes of the body
of the vest, which is nothing more
than a slit from shoulder to girdle,
there is a narrow plated frill of net.
The soft crush collar is of the white
taffeta. There are also exquisite lit
tie w~aistcoats formed of pompadour
taffeta in light or dark tones to suit
the fancy Of the wearer.
Shadow lace, chiffon, net and crys-
tai buttons are effectively utilized in
the development of the popular fichu.
These materials are used alone or in
combination, and any combination

in the shaded weave and solid colors.

CANADA WINNING
CHAMPIONSHIPS
In AGRICULTURE
The Latest Is Winning Cham
piOnship for Oats a Third
Time.

Recently was published the fact of
remarkable winnings by Canadian
farmers in several events during the
past three or four years. The latest
is that of Messrs. ]. c. Hill & Sons
Of Lloydminster, Saskatchewan, who
won in a hard contest for the oat
championship over Montana. At the
National Corn Exposition at Dallas
during February, Montana oats were
awarded the championship for the
United States. Waiting for the win
ner of this to be announced was a
peck Of oats belonging to the Ca
madam growers above mentioned, and
alongside of these was a like quantity
belonging to a Minnesota grower, who
was barred from the regular compe-
titiOn because he was at one time the
winner of the trophy-the prize. The
three entries were side by side on the
judges bench. 1t would not be pos
sfble to bring together three more
likely samples. The Montana and
Saskatchewan entries were Of equal
weight-50 pounds to the bushel. The

pounds lighter. The award was
unanimous in favor of the Saskatche-
wan oats. A remarkable feature and
n greatly to the credit of the Ca
madam product was that the oats,
grown in 1913, were grown and shown
by those who had competed during
the past two years, winning on each
occasion. This, the third winning,
gave them for the third time the
worlds championship and fun posses
sion Of the splendid s. 1850 silver
trophy contributed by the state Of
Colorado.
The oats which have thns given to
Western Canada another splendid ad-
vertising card, were grown 800 miles
north Of the international boundary
line, proving that in this latitude, all
the smaller grains can be grown with
greater perfection and with more
abundant yield than further south. In

said of any portion Of Manitoba.

over the world not only as a country
where championship grains are grown,
but where cattle and horses are raised

where wild grasses are abundant

are grown, thus giving plenty Of feed,
and with a good climate. sufficient
shelter and plenty Of water, bring
about results such as western Canada
has been able to record. Thousands
of farmers from the United States
who have their homes in Canada bear
ample testimony to the benefits they
have derived from farming in west

there is deep gloom everywhere

ment is making public only some of
the losses and the newspapers are
carry ing only a small percentage OF
even the official lists. There is de-
clared To be grave discomfort because
the government has failed to make any
provision for the unemployed. Busi-
ness generally is at a standstill and the
leading Socialist newspapers are COM
planning because the government is
employing prisoners on road work in
stead of hiring German unemployed.
Some of the reports received from
interior Germany say that already
there are whispers of an uprising by
the Socialists who feel that the coun-
try has been deceived by the kaiser.
These reports, however are extremely
