Patrick Finn of Winifred, has the re-
| cord yield Of Turkey Red Wheat for
Fergus county this year. The yield
was a fortytwo and one-half bushel
average on forty-fve acres. This IS by
no means a record only for 1914 Tor
Fergus county or the Judith Basin as
that is really siXty-three bushels per
acre. 1914 supplied the Judith Basin
with the lowest averages it has ever

ing about two weeks short at the time
when the grain was filling preperly.The

There is great hue and cry about
buying cotton fabrics. The result is
that there are many very handsome
cotton materials put on the market
which can be used all winter. Cordur-
oy is a notable example of this. Stun
ming corduroy costumes with luxur-
ious trimming of fur defy t. e winters
cold and give the wearer the comfort
able feeling of having done his best
to support the home industry.
Poplins, serges, garbardines are al
so popular fabrics this season. Serge
has become a standby-it may be
bought as low as fifty cents a yard in
narrow widths up to four and five dol
lars a yard for the wider widths. But
the most popular of all suitings is CO.
vert. The colors are usually in the
tan shades, but it is also made in
other colors, such as dark blue, black
and green.
The newest fabrics show a sickness
of textures and suppleness which
makes them particularly susceptible
to draping and soft folds.

January always calls for a refurnish-
ing of ones winter wardrobe. Usually
the clothes that have been bought In
the fall for winter wear are beginning
to look shabby and there is a general
feeling of wanting something new.
AS the separate coat holds such a
strong place in the up-.o-date wom-
ans wardrobe, it is safe to say that
it is a new dress to be worn under
this coat which she needs most.
For this dress come many mater
iais both practical and smart. At pres
ent the chosen fabric is covert in one
of the light tan shades which is al
ways to be seen in. Simple of style
are most of these frocks. l saw not
long ago one of these with plain bo-
dice, so short wasted as to be almost
Empire. The waist was double breast
ed, buttoning on one side with round
ball buttons covered with the mater
ial. The high military collar also but
tons at the side with these buttons.
The skirt is gored and flares at the
sides. 1t is untrimmed and fastened
70 the waist with a four-inch belt.
Another frock developed in beige
colored garbardine, a fabric which is
known to hold strong place next to
covert cloth and which | am using for
my illustration.
The waist is made becomingly sur
plice with long close-ftting sleeves.
The skirt is the popular short length
and very full. There is no belt, as the
waist is worn over the skirt and fin
ished like the old-fashioned short bas-
que at the normal waistline. A cum
ming little hat which reminds one OF
little Scotch cap was worn with this
dress. 1t was of the same color as the
dress and trimmed with band o1
grosgrain ribbon which ended in some
streamers in the back. A veil was
worn over the hat, coming down vel
below the chin and allowed to float
away from the face.
Another material which is used fol
this type of frock to wear beneath 6
tcp-coat, for street or outdoor veal
is a serge. The finer weaves of serge
is best for a frock, as it is usually
than the heavier twilled quantities.
Navy blue is the most popular color
in this fabric at the present time and
is often trimmed with black satin
bands and satin-covered buttons.
It may be an afternoon dress that

Covert Cloth and Gabardine
in Light Tan Shades Popular

iccable for the above mentioned oc-
casions is made of black charmeuse
The waist of this dress is long and
loose-ftting, similar to jumper with
guimpe of brown chiffon, and band
of fur around the neck and the cuffs
of the long sleeves. The skirt was
long and full, faced up on the right
side with the satin, giving the appear
ance Of hem on the right side in
stead of the wrong. At the top of the
hem or facing was cording.
Probably the most difficult age to
dress girl is when she is between the
ages Of twelve to fourteen and some
times sixteen. She is too young for
misses clothes and too large for the
girls, and to reach the happy medium
requires some thought and ingenuity
on the part Of the mother.
In the accompanying illustration is
dress which is particularly well
adapted to those between ages. The
blouse is short and hangs loosely over
the full, flared skirt. The high COL
lar is trimmed with braiding, as is the
bottom of the waist and the edges Of
the sleeves.
Often mothers fail to realize that
their daughters are growing up and
continue to keep their dresses short
when it makes them look all legs, and
few ambitious mothers err the other
way and start to lengthen their daugh
ters' dresses too soon. It is happy
medium which must be reached, and
can only be attained by careful
thought as to what is the most be-
coming length for the particular fig
ure. If the girl is tall and slender she
needs different length from the short
and stout figure.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way TO cure deafness.
and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube Is en-
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and VIXEN 1t is en-
tirely closed, Deafnsess Is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be TAX
en- out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be des-
troyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is noth-
ing but an inflamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.

HUNTERS OBJECT TO PLAN

The hunters of the various counties,
those who have paid the license fee de-
manded by the state, will oppose any
effort to turn the fund derived from
the LICENSES towards the Improvement
of the county roads. This diversion of
the fund is being sought in number
Of places over the state.
"The state law requires that fifty
per cent of the money derived from
the sale of licenses shall go toward
the propagation of game birds and
game animals" declared one of the
hunters of Medina this week. The
rest Of the money is used to maintain
the Offices and officers of the state
game warden's department. Any ef-
fort to change the law in regard to
this fund will be strongly opposed by
the hunters who pay for the licenses.
We are organized all over the state,
although not especially for that pur-
pose."
The hunters are not opposed to good
roads, but they are opposed to the use
of money which is paid in to keep up
the supply of birds and animals, which
are an inestimable benefit to the far
mers. Another factor is that the hun
ters who paid in their money this
year for licenses were unable to get
any great benefit from them as they
were compelled to go some distance to
enjoy the sport.
