In the very simple draped bodice,
the taffeta silk is draped W the lace
~underbodice. reversing the order Of
things in the skirt. The iece extends
beyond the silk, forming a short sleeve
drapery for the arms and a chemisette
at the front Of the bodice. The bodice
and skirt are Joined at the waist line.
A very wide girdle and sash is made
Of the taffeta. II Is laid In folds about
the waist and extends from Just be-
low the BUST to a few inches below the
normal waist line. II Is kept in shape
with stays tackled to the front, sides
and back, on the underside. The ends
cross at the right and are brought
down below the waist at the back,
where the sash is finished with two
big loops without ends.
For the too slender girl an under

or one Of chiffon. may be added &c

DAIRYING PAYS ON DRY FARM
Experiment Solves Problem Of Han
ding Butter During Summer
Month-supplles Money.

Those Of the dry farmers who have
been experimenting on selling cream
Instead OF butter, have demonstrated
the fact that a couple OF cows will
maintain a house and family. Feed
for the cows costs nothing during
the summer, as grass is plentiful, and
sufficient 70 produce a good aow OF
milk containing the required amount
Of butter fat. This experiment has
solved the problem OF how to handle
butter during the summer months.
AS cream brings fully as much or
more than the butter from the same
amount Of milk. leaving the separated
milk TO be used sweet. as calf. hog or
chicken feed, this business supplies
the farmer with ready money each
week as regularly Al he markets the
cream, and by raising his own stock
feed the cost OF w~intering the cows

SUDAN GRASS FOR DRY LAND

Sudan grass belongs to the sorghum
family, and Is considered BY some an-
thorities to be the wild, original form
Of the cultivated sorghums. II Il a tall
annual grass. being somewhat like

latter, and never becomes a weed. I'm

moisture in the soil. II sown broad.
cast II does not grow so high as when
planted In rows which permit OF culti-
walton.
Sudan grass Is particularly well
adapted 10 the dry land sections. rs II
produces good yields OF hay, and un-
der average conditions should produce
two cuttings OF hay In a season. II Is
very drought resistant and win sue
coed where II is possible to grow any
other sorghum.
In feeding value, Sudan grass an be
compared with the miiletB. making Q
large crop of hay during the warm
weather. Hay made from Sudan grass
is preferable to millet hay, as il can
be fed to all classes OF live stock
without injury. The stalks are fine
and a be readily cured into hay.
The crop may be grown either
drilled, in cultivated rows or broad
casted. II drilled or broadcasted, from
10 to is pounds of seed Ia own per
acre, while IL planted In cultivated
rows. the rows being about thirty
inches apart, two or three pounds OF
seed should be used per acre.

POST0FFICE POINT.
There Is No Mail Station Located on
This Arctic Ice Pack.


This Arctic Ice Pack.
Almost due north of Boring strait is
a point in the solid north pack that
always extends much farther south
than the pack at the eastward or at
the westward. This point is naturally
variable, according to the heat Of the
summer and the severity of the preyi-
Gus winter, but it does not move more
than a few degrees For fifty or sew
enty-hve years this point of ice has
been spoken Of by the arctic whale
men as "Postofice point"
This does not mean that there is a
postoflice there, but the significance
Of The name is because the whaling
fleets usually are divided. some ships
going considerably east of Postofice
point and others west Of it, Ships
that have been east Of it cruise along
the edge of the pack and very fire.
quently meet ships that have been to
the west of it, and the meeting point
for some reason has always been in
the neighborhood Of PostofIice point
1t was here therefore that the ships
used to meet, after being separated
for many weeks, and exchange news
and gossip.
The solid north pack comes pretty
close to Point Barrow and extends in
an irregular line from Point Barrow
to Postoffice point. Much Of this ice
"looks as though 1t has been there
from the year l." as one of the whal-
ing captains has expressed it. Bear
ing In mind the fact that Postotfice
point is always to be found in ap-
proximateiy the same latitude and
longitude. it seems as though there
must of necessity be land back of it,
although Of course there is n posi-
bility that there may be a very solid
pack of ice instead of land, held in
place by comparatively shallow water.

domesticated turkey-not. however, of

his wild state, have sought to cross
the stormy seas to find green fields
and pastures new,
He is not so constructed He is not
bold or adventurous of disposition. On
the contrary, he is timid and much
afraid Of things he does not under
stand and when undisturbed is prone
to let well enough alone and get along
with his accustomed feeding grounds.
Again, us a fiier the turkey is not a
pronounced success. He dies ponder
ously. almost painfully and with great
effort and only when very much fright
cned. His flight can be sustained for
only a short distance, but what TIE
wild turkey lacks as an aviator he
fully makes up as a sprinter
He can outrun a race horse, especial

underground and bushes seem but to
add to his speed. But he could not

had had that unnatural desire.

man, first to Spain. then to other
