Farm work for women has becomc

,rollment from. Shefield university are
among the volunteers for war work
In the fields, and girls who had pre-
viously devoted all their energies To
sport and fashion are making q fad

farmers has been designed and exhib-

brown linen fashioned into long coat
lbuttoned down the front. Knicker-
bockers Of the same material are
worn underneath, buttoning below the
knee. This costume 10 not only cheap,
but allows az much freedom Of move
ment az mans dress. Because OF the
knickers the women farmers can climb
trees for pruning or picking fruit.
Some prejddice Is encountered on the
part Of the old-fashioned farmers.
When they receive an application for
work from girl who looks like the
dairymaid of q comic opera, they are
inclined to give refusal on the spot.
Most of the applicants have little idea
OF what real farm work is like. They
think Of rose-covered cottage. with
tea served in the garden among the
flowers. and an arcadian existence.
But they are willing to learn about

Gently the two animals participated

snarled and snapped at her. perhaps
thinking she was bent on stopping the

dog did not bite the child and he could
not say the canine had ever bitten any
one, still he contended the Scotch COL
lie had disposition to be barking and
stirring up a row.
HE Is a regular fight promoter and
a nuisance in the neighborhood," said
the complainant to the Judge.
The defendant had brought into
court raft of children who have been
in the habit of playing with the dog.
and they declared the dog was all
right. Then came the dogs turn. and
he took the stand In his own defense,

The Judge concluded the dog was
not vicious or dangerous and returned
a verdict Of not guilty.
