be JOlned to q belt or to the yoke. Thd blouse is made with straight fronts that are adapted to thia use and with a collat and vest of a con@ trasting material that arc charming. Here; they are made of handkerchief lawn, but the sleeves and the back of the blouse are of plain voile, cut from the upper part of the wide founcine used for the fronts. At the waist, there is a novel girdle that is made of a bright col ored ribbon, but if a finish of the material is liked, that girdle can be omitted, the blouse cut a little longer and shirred to form its own girdle with an extension over the skirt that is very charming on many figures. As a matter of course, any bordered material can be used treated in just this same way, whether it is silk, cot. ton or linen and plain or lowered materials can be trimmed on their edges if a Dor. dered fabric is not liked. There are lovely lowered voiles that make charming dresses after this model with the edges banded or finished with hemstitch- ing or in any such way. Bordered taffeta and bordered foulard are pretty made exactly in this manner. White crepe de chine would be very charming with bands of black velvet ribbon for trimming or with ruches or ruhaes or with bands of taffeta, for taffeta and crepe de chine combine most successfully Both long and three. quarter sleeves are being worn this sum- mer and the pattern allows a choice, but most women will pre-. fer the long ones foa this model with the frills that fail over thu hands to give an ex ceedingly becoming effect.
 The blouse as illus trated will require IM yda of bordered material 4I in. wide yds. of the same width.

NOTICE FRUIT GROWERS.

There is no reason why the farmers of Carroll county should not receive from S100,000 to $150, 900 each year from a straw berry crop. Strawberry grow ing helps in many ways. They increase the fertility of the soil for other crops, they enable every boy and girl in the country and city as well to earn money, they come on at a season of the year when crops which wi l bring a cash return are scarce. Your soil is ideal for strawberry growing and l can see no better time to get busy than right now. Let's get together and see if we can start this splendid industry. It will take cooperation as in- dividual effort cannot bring the best results. They m us t b e grown in car-lot quantities to make the most out of them, that means that many farmers must engage in the industry.

Homestead, Okla., Jan. 4, 1915 Editor Tribune: You will find enclosed $1.00 to keep the Trib- une coming another year. Our old home paper is always well come visitor at our home.
 1 would like to step in and chat a while with my old friends and relatives. It has been eight years since 1 left there, but a man hasn't much time to visit after farming three-quarters of a section.
 We have had some crop fail ures since l have been here. Seems like everything has been against the farmers, but I have never failed but one year to make from 5000 to $500 bushels of wheat. There is a great ex-
  pense in taking care of wheat crops. l have made some money in hogs and cattle. Perhaps my old stock dealers would like to know that l am doing fairly well in the stock business. 1 have 145 head of yearlings that are doing fine on the wheat pas ture, and 100 head of red hogs.
 1 have better health than have ever had. 1 weigh 18O pounds.
 1 will not take up any more of your space. If it is the good Lords will expect to see you all again. With best regards to my old friends and neighbors,

rings and lavalier worth about S1, 900.

rings and lavalier worth about $1, 900.
 On Saturday night MT. Keebey received a telephone message asking him to go to his office and meet a man who desired to make the purchase of a diamond ring. Illness in the family prevented, but he made all engagement to meet the man in his office Sunday morning. A t t h e appointed hour MT. Keebey met a neat appearing young man at his of flee and displayed a tray of dia- monds. After discussing t h e precious stones for sometime, showing himself to be an expert on gems, the would be purchaser asked for a glass of water. He was told where to get it, and from the lavatory, asked MT. Keebey if he did not care for a drink MT. Keebey replied that he would take one if 1t was brought to him. It was, and he drank from the glass proffered him. In a minute MT. Keebey felt a dizziness in the head, then he lost consciousness entirely.
 Half an hour later MT. Keebey aWoke to find the tray of dia- monds missing, his safe open and $63 taken from the cash drawer. The jewler immediate ly notified the city detectives, who began a systematic search for the robber. They are look ing for well known yegg who was known to have been in town on Saturday night, and who fits very well the description of the robber given by MT. Keebey. The bandit wore no disguise and talked with Mir. Keebey for half half an hour, so the jeweler was able to give officers an excellent de- scription of the man.
 The lavalier is valued at $500, and there were fifteen rings with diamonds of various sizes.

KANSAS CITY MARKET REPORT

Cattle trade showed some inn provement late last week, ex- cept on stockers and feeders, which suffered severely from the Kansas sanitary situation. The fact the Kansas cases of foot and mouth disease seem to safely confine within the quaran- tined district, and that only one new case has come to the surface since the original outbreak, is tending to spread confidence. Shipments of stocker and feed ing cattle are now permitted to Kansas in cases where the cat tie can be traced as originating in clean territory, otherwise the quarantine is strict. Missouri, Iowa, and Nebraska recei V e stockers and feeders from here without restriction.
 The supply today is 5000 cat tie, market steady to 15 higher than last week. Sales under $7.50 including butcher grades, got the advance, buyers moving slowly when asking price was above $7.50. Some but c h heifers sold at $7.O5 and $7.25 that were like heifers last week at $7 or less. Light weight short fed steers at S7 to $7.5O brought a little more than last weeks values. While the market was some improvement over la s t week it was still a disappoint- ment to most sellers. Runs were moderate at all points, but were composed largely of killing grades, both here and at Chicago. The market situation changes so often, and is subject to so many active influences that com mission men hesitate to give ad- vice to shippers, although their suggestions at the close last week favored staying off the market with cattle for the pres ent, unless there were urgent reasons for selling.
 Hogs sold five to ten higher on the early marker, to shippers, top $6.90. Packers bids were steady and bulk of sales ranged from $6. 70 toS6.85. Cheap hogs are blamed for portion of the depression in prices, but on the other hand, the good demand for pork, resulting from cheap ness, makes outlet for more hogs at prevailing pric es. Cold weather makes it possible for much hog killing to be done at home, but that works in two ways, cutting down both supply and demand.
 Sheep and lambs are weak to 10 lower today, receipts IA, 900 head. The market opened slow, with bids sharply lower, but actual sales show only the decline indi- cated, half a dozen lots of southern Colorado lambs, selling al $8.75 the top. Northern Col prada ewes brought $6.50, weigh ing 114 and 1l6 pounds, and some 89 pound northern Colorado lambs brought $8.45, good to choice yearlings $7.55, wethers $6.75. In spite of storms, the northern roads delivered their stock early today.
