The soft, supple qualities of the
new materials have influenced our
styles to q marked degree the past
season and doubtless viii! continue
to tempt designers into quaint
graceful drapings and folds the com
ing season. Skirts are full at the
top and narrow around the ankles;
shoulders are dropping and hips are
wide. This sums up the new sill
houette. Whereas the suit or gown
of one color with hat and access
series matching Is still smart and
elegant; many of the newest gowns
and suits show decided leaning
toward contrasts. A plain silk or
cloth is combined with figured
material or plaid with excellent
results.
In number S115-S117 is shown a
three-tiered skirt and novel bod
ice. The bodice is draped on the
shoulder in bournous effect, has
full length sleeve and an effective
vest. One of those odd little de-
tails that do so much for a frock
is the wired frill around the throat
and at the wrist. This. of course,
follows the idea of the lamp-shade
tunic. Dull green duvetyn, edged

HOW HAIR RIBBONS
MAY BE KEPT FRESH

A hair ribbon muses. very quickly
Il tied each time 1t Is used.
Instead of tying a child's hair ribs
bon each time it Is used make the
ribbon into a bow, and tie the latter
to the hair with a short piece of baby
ribbon, the same color as the bow,
slipped through the knot.
BY this means the bow Is fastened
to the hair securely and the bow Is
always kept fresh.

necessity net only OF the town, but
o: the country as well being free from

He also discussed the relative mer
it's Of sweeping and flushing the city

which each system was meeting in

FIRST REPORT FROM
THE SUPERVISOR
SHOWS Some Interesting Facts Ahou+
the Elementary Rural
Schools

Inc state department or fire..
schools has just tabulated the first
months report Of the district super.
visors in West Virginia. The sum,
mary Of these reports shows some in.
terestins facts, one Of which is that
nearly one-thlrd Of all the childrer
or the elementary rural schools are in
the first grade. The distribution Of
the 44.47O children reported Is as fol.
lows:
1888, or 81 per cent are in first
grade; 6,42S, or IA per cent are in
the second grade; 1929, or ID per
cent, are in the third grade; 1852,
or 1874 per cent, are in the fourth
grade; 1915, or 81 per cont, are in
the fifth grade; 3,1G9. or II per cent,
are in the sixth grade; 2,422, or 30
per cent, are in the seventh grade;
while only 2,O92, or Al per cent, are
in the eighth grade.
These facts are cause for serious
refectlon." said l.. ]. Hanifan, state
cally all our children start to school
soon after they have attained to the
legal school age. They drop out all
along the grades until note quite 5
per cent of all the children attending
the schools are in the eighth, or last,
grade. What becomes of these chill
dren?" asks Supervisor FTanifan, and
then answers his own question abort
as follows:
THE school attendance is SO poor
in the lower grades that it takes many
Of the children two or three years to
complete the work Of the first grade
This accounts for the large number
in the first grade Then if they lose
another year or two in their progress
in the next two or three grades. they
arrive at the age or Is before they
have gotten far in their studies.'
Asked what is the remedy, Mr.. Han.
ifan replied: "a more stringent COM
pulsory attendance law would help
wonderfully but the best way to keep
the children in school is to have clos
err cooperation of the home and the
school. The parents and teacher can
beat all the truant officers in keeping
the children in school if they work to-
gether and work hard enough

SMALLER APPLE
CROP IHIS YEAR
Maryland Expert Writes of Prepar-
ing Fruit For Market-How 1t
Should Be Done.

There is Il large apple crop
throughout the country this fall
writes r. p. Symons, OF the MARYLAND
Agricultural College, in The Ameri-
can Union, but not nearly SO large
as at first thought, and not nearly so
large as the 1912 crop. Further, I'm
unslual conditions existing by viz
tue TO the war in Europe affect the
apple market chiefly through a fell
ing of uneasiness among the dealers,
who have usually bought apples for
expectation or for distribution in our
markets through the winter. Yet
even If Europe does not take a single
barrel the crop can be marketed in
this country, if judiciously handled,
with satisfaction to all.
Growers should be extremely care
ful to see that the apples are picked
properly Proper picking and hand
ling have great value in the sale Of
apples. With some varieties the
trees should be picked over two or
three times. DO not allow the fruit
to remain in piles in the orchard ex-
posed to the sun. Fruit should be
hauled on wagons equipped with
springs. Indications are that poor
grades Of fruit will bring practically
nothing on them arket. 1t also has
an affect on the market Of good ap-
pies. 1t will be better to keep this
class Of fruit at home | have seen
several growers who have sold their
good apples for a fair price. Jona-
thans mad Grimes at SO per barrel
and Yorks at $3.50 and 81. Don't
ship your fruit to a market where it
would bring not more than $125.
The Office of Markets. United
States Department of Agriculture,
makes the following suggestions
First, the growers pick and handle
fruit in such condition as to insure
it against deterioration.
Second, that growers, associations
and operators who use the barrel IS
a cOntainer adopt the standard bar
rel, and uniformly grade and pack
the crop in compliance with the stand
ards Of the Sulzer law, branding their
packages accordingly.
Third, that all inferior grades be
eliminated from the green fruit mar
kets and diverted as far as possible
to cider mills, canneries and evapor-
atOrs.
Fourth, that only bookkeeping,
standard-pack varieties be placed
in cold storage.
F1fth, that special effort be
made to fully supply small towns by
direct sales, for the purpose Of secur-
ing equitable distribution and avoid
ing the suggestion Of large markets.
Sixth, that all growers, operators,
dealers and associations early rec
oncile themselves to the conditions
and arrive at an estimate of true val
ues in order to assure quick move
ment Of the crop from producer to
consumer

FRUIT PROSPECT
STILL LOOKS GOOD
Inspector Macy Finds Conditions
Varying in Different Parts

Idaho will not have the bumper
fruit crop that was promised the
growers month ago." said Mr.. Macy,
state horticultural inspector, Thurs
day after he had returned from trip
% Emmett made for the purpose of
sizing up the damages done by the
recent freezes Notwithstanding this.
however, we may count on a goou
crop and one that in some fruits, will
be better than that of last year.
Though a large percentage Of the
Dooms were killed by the frost OF
last week and that of two weeks ago.
there will sill be enough left to COM
pare with last years CROP
'In the orchards where water was
run along the trees and where every
possible precaution was taken, the
ioss while large, need not worry the
grower. In those orchards, however,
where nothing as done to save the
lruit from the frost, the loss will
range from so to 80 per cent, depend
ng on the amount ofnatural protec-
ton the trees had.
"fhe prunes did not suffer great
deal in the last cold spell They were
ait to some extent In the freeze
1hich came two weeks ago, hoover
and the prune crop this year win be
about the same, possibly slightly
smaller, than was last u
The apple crop this year will be
little larger, probably, than that of
1913. | should have liked to see a
bumper crop, such as was promised
month ago in order to test the eff
fiency of the mark citing organza-
ons, but perhaps it is as well that
they have another year to perfect tbs
system and establish themselves.
