The ostrich boa in white and black,
in all white, or in white with color
matching the suit, cannot be said to
take second place, although 1t followed
the neckpiece of fur in popular favor.
Just now 1t is in more general de-
mand than any other and heads the
list of favorite neckpieces. The new
est ostrich boas are short and finished
with long tassels OF narrow silk braid.
Nesting in the long and dainty hbers
are beautiful millinery roses in a
small cluster, or a single rose and bud
shows off to wonderful advantage so
placed. These ruffs are fastened with
tassels hanging at the back. Occa-
sionally short neckpiece of white
marabou is seen, but the longer fiue
OF the ostrich makes it the favorite.
Besides furs and feathers there are
the collars OF malines and nets made
in variety so great that everyone may

KILL HESSIAN FLY
BY EARLY FLOWING
Fifty Million Bushels of Good
Wheat Fed to Pest Every Year
How to Destroy 1t.

We feed 50,O00,000 bushels OF good
wheat to the hessian fly every year, to
say nothing of what II costs us to feed
our chinch bugs and other pests, and
have only ourselves to blame. There
is only one subject In which all farm
ers agree, and that is, high taxes.
They want pay for sheep killed by the
neighbours dogs. Why not ask pay for
the wheat killed by the neighbours hes
sian flies?
Cut the wheat high. above the Sec
ond Joint. Remove the grain from the
field and stack it somewhere else. The
fly is now in the resting stage and the
safest way and only sure plan is for
every farmer to pillow every acre deep
ly and thoroughly within two weeks
after harvest, turningsunder the stub
BILE completely. This will fix Mr. Fly.
Team work is necessary. Teach the
schoolchildren to look for the fly, and
report IL at every stage. Appoint a
captain in every school district, who
should be the best wheat grover in
the neighborhood.
This early complete blowing will not
only reduce the fly, but will be a
great benefit to next years crop. IL
does not let the field dry out after
harvest, and gets It ready to hold all
OF the moisture which is so badly need
ed in most sections. II is stated that
other things being equal. three acres
plowed in July are worth five acres
plowed in September.

and as gay, your parasol this season
may be OF any shape or color you
choose. II you incline to plain one

new shapes-a pagoda parasoI or one
of those fiat, Chinese-looking affairs.
These shapes and the small UNI
brella style, like those shown in the
picture, are displayed in the shops in
green, cerise, blue, tan, and other
colors, banded with black-and-white
stripes or with Dresden designs in
lowered borders. Black-and-white
checkerboard silks have been used
with fine effect on both white and
colored models. Vivid green, bordered
with black-and-white stripes, and a
darker green with a wide band of
Dresden ribbon inserted, are among
the most attractive and the most USE

successful as the various black-and.

The strawberry plant should be kept

to be secured, for, unlike the bush

Bordeaux Mixture Outfit.

Bordeaux mixture is made of cop
per sulphate, lime and water.
These three substances are COM
bined in various proportions, depend
ing upon the kind of plant to be
treated For apples, pears, cherries
and plums Except Japanese varie-
ties) the preparation is usually four
pounds copper sulphate with about
the same amount of lime to so gal
Ions of water. Poison is added as
needed. The copper sulphate will
readily dissolve in two gallons of hot
water, to which should be added
enough water to make % gallons or
onehalf barrel Do not use an iron or
tin vessel to dissolve this in as the
copper sulphate will destroy it, and be-
sides the iron will spoil the bordeaux.
A wooden pail is good. Stake the lime
into a thin paste and add water to
make Is gallons. Pour, or let these
run together into a third barrel, and
the bordeaux is made. When It Is
emptied into the spray barrel or tank,
It should be strained through brass
wire strainer to catch any of the
coarse particles.
Whenever 1t is necessary to use a
quantity of the mixture, it is desirable
to have the lime and copper sulphate
In stock solutions" A quantity of
lime is slaked to a paste and held 80

pended in a barrel Zone with wood

tanning 25 gallons of water. This will
dissolve in about a day. One gallon
OF this stock solution is equal to two
pounds of copper sulphate.
A good quick way to combine these
three substances is as follows; Put

copper sulphate required in a bar
