The little house gown of two ma terials is causing a great deal of at tention just now. Every couturiere seems intent upon rendering it more and more attractive, and fresh essays are made every day to add distinctive touches. The original design which is our small contribution to the galere, while following certain accepted de- crees. is yet quite distinctive little scheme. The favorite alliance of vel vet and Georgette is the selected ex- pression, and one that never fails to carry conviction. Favors are about divided so far as the skirt is con- cerned, the velvet, however, taking a certain assertive position in front of the skirt. The little sleeveless cor sage is slightly indeterminate, square slice being taken out beneath the arm and suggesting that an under bodice of the Georgette is worn.
 The sleeves are clearly of the lat ter, and note should be taken of their fashioning, the cut allowing of de- cided droop at the back of the wrists, tha fullness being subsequently, drawn

line foot. Below the sash on this south wall from east to west are strung galvanized telegraph wires to support the grapevines one foot from the glass. At the east end is a door three feet by six feet six inches, open ing into the grapery. In the cut it is shown in the west end for purposes of illustration. Steps lead down to the floor, and on the north wall is fastened, within the grapery, poultry wire. This poultry wire serves the purpose of a trellis for growing cucumbers or other climbing fruit. The entire inside is whitewashed The floor is of earth, and in winter where it is not desired io put in heating plant fresh manure is piled on the floor to generate heat. At the bottom of this door is made ven- tilator with a slide to regulate the ad mission of air.
 The grapevines are planted in soil outside the south wall, and the stems trained into the grapery through the apertures above mentioned and the branches trained on the telegraph wires below the sash. In the house the finest grapes, as Black Hamburg, Thompson Seedless and other delicate and high-priced grapes may be grown in the North where it is impossible to grow them outdoors. The writer re peatedly tried to raise the Thompson Seedless grape outdoors in the mild winters of southern Michigan without success. The vines were winter-killed each year and finally succumbed en- tirely. With grapery such as de- scribed above they can be grown cas- fly. This grapery is not an expensive structure, as one may see by little figuring, and in the winter, and when cucumbers and other iiiAuffs de- mand. a titsa Aissa4 price, they may be grown against the north wall. Ampelopsis quinquefolia, ivy and other vines planted on the outside of the wall make very attractive addition to the vista of the farm.

The crisp days of autumn spur women up to the consideration of their needs. or desires, in furs, and the fur riers shop Is soon caught in it's an- nual .whirlwind of business. Tn order to anticipate the rush, the stores and shops show advance models in August and advertise special values. good many sales are made then, but not enough to relieve the pressure later. But styles become established, at any rate, and certain furs become leaders, quite often making quick advance in price.
 For the present season all furs are fashionable. Skunk or martin stands close to the head, with mink in the same class. Opossum fur, especially as a trimming, has sprung into a sud- den vogue; fox of every yaEiets-fs selling freely -aaad4--gU5d Hudson seal 5slnss a higher price than ever.
 Martin and mink are among the hard furs. That is, they will wear longer than many others, and they bring a higher price than the less durable, or soft" furs. But this is not an invariable rule, for certain rare

species of fox fur bring fabulous prices.
 Neckpieces are moderate in width and length and many of them are de- cidedly short, worn about the neck like 8 high choker collar, with short end hanging at the back and one at the side. A straight neckplece is worn close up about the neck with ends crossing and both hanging at the back.
 Muffs are worn in several sizes, but fashion clings to the larger ones. They are round or barrel-shaped and few fancy shapes and patterns have been introduced.
 A fine set of mink is shown in the picture. It is a conservative design as it should be in such cho1cs-teFe1s' for fine fAes-afer-s0mewhat independ- 'ent of the whims of fashion.
 When furs are to be selected an expert judge of quality will be needed, since there are so many grades of the same kind. Their value is consider ably influenced by fashion, but the rarest furs-sable, mink, ermine and rare fox-constantly grow more valu- able.

PAYING FOWLS ARE
 SOURCE OF DELIGHT
Money-Making Hens Live in Houses Free From Vermin and
 Are Properly Cared For.

Paying birds are a delight to the eye. You like to show them to your friends and finger in the description of what they are and what they have done for you. Paying birds never make up large part of your flock, when you sell the cream of your chick ems every year.
 Money-making flocks are made up of the best you raise, always letting the second quality go to the market.
 This class of birds, because they pay, receive thought and attention from you. You gladly take good care of them. You are willing to properly mate them and feed them. You look for fresh blood to improve your flock. You can buy birds that should pay, but it is another thing to have them pay you after you own them.
 The paying hen is usually matched from paying strain. The paying hen that comes out of the flock of good-for-nothing birds is seldom met and not worth looking for. It takes time, it takes money, it takes born hen sense to produce flock of pay ing hens.
 It takes little neglect to send this flock back to the class of non-paying hens. Paying birds live in houses free from vermin and all are supplied with pure air and water. They get food that is needed to bring the profit to the proper point.

The growing of the delicate grapes of southern climes may be easily ac- complished in an inexpensive grapery made of concrete, as outlined in the ac- companying plan. In some localities the climate in the North is so severe that grape growing is out of the ques- tiOn, and the hardest variety must be buried in winter even to keep them alive, and it is needless to suggest that this is nuisance, as the vines must be taken from the trellis in the fall and replaced in the spring. But the finest grapes may be grown in house as designed in this plan, writes Her. man Haupt, Jr., of Michigan in Rural New Yorker. A greenhouse is made of re-enforced concrete. We make wall 12 feet high on the north side and six inches thick using poultry wire strung from top to bottom of the wall, be- tween the forms in which is shoveled a mixture of one part best cement, two parts clean sand (to test the sand put some in pail of water and stir it well, and if it is muddy do not use it. Clean sand will settle to the bottom at once and leave the water clear) eight parts of gravel or brownstone. This will set in day or two and make a firm wall, but week or more should elapse be- fore removing the forms. The south side is made of hotbed sash secured to rods of T-iron bolted to the concrete walls. The bolts are set in the soft concrete with the head sunk in the wall and the screw out, to which the rods are secured by the nut, and in the interior walls bolts are set wherever it is desired to fasten wood or any other structure.
 The roof is made of re-enforced con- crete laid fiat with a series of galvan- ized iron ventilators placed about three feet aaprt. The southi--1w-sIn is four feet -Aiisann;-rwo feet being below the surface, and three feet apart are made apertures in the wall, connecting with the outside, and below the ground

SLING FOR FODDER
 IS A CONVENIENCE
Plan Outlined for the Perform ance of a Troublesome Task
 on the Average Farm.

In hauling shocks of GOTH, fodder and all, to the barn to shuck it on rainy days, it is sometimes trouble some to handle.
 An open sling will help, in which the boards are three-fourths by four inches, four feet long with a three quarter inch hole two inches from each end for one-half inch rope.
 The ropes in each sling are long enough to enclose a shock of fodder. To load the shocks, the slings are placed one by one on the wagon, the boards lying crosswise, and the ropes laid back and forward When one shock is loaded the ropes are brought together and looped, then another sling is loaded, as before, until six shocks are on the wagon.
 The load is driven to the barn, the hay carrier hooked to the sling. and the shock is lifted at once to the barn.
 The corn as it is shocked, is assort- ed, and clean, well-shaped ears are thrown into one crib; the "nubbins" are thrown into the bin next to the crusher and are ground for the COWS, the fodder is cut up on the large cut ting box. The cutting box is run by a gasoline engine in the pump room. The fodder, nice, bright and sweet, is moistened with hot water, a mix ture of wheat bran, oilmeal, crushed oats and gluten feed; sufficient salt is added to season. The pile is forked over thoroughly and let lie over night, or from morning to night.
 The pith of the stalks that the cows do not eat is used for bedding, which is one of the best absorbents we have

MULCH STRAWBERRY
 TO PREVENT KILLING
Trouble Usually Caused by Plants Drying Out Too Much-Cover
 With Clean Straw.
(By E. F. M'KUNE. Colorado AgricuI- tural College. Fort Collins. Colol

CBy E. F. M'KUNE, Colorado Agricul-
 tural College, Fort Collins. Colo.)
 The object of mulching strawberries in the fall is to prevent winter kill. ing.
 Winter killing is usually caused by the plants dying out too much dur ing the winter months, or by alternate freezing and thawing.
 The best mulch material to use is clean straw; this is placed on the plants four to six inches deep after the ground has been frozen.
 In the spring after the ground is thawed, the straw is worked around the plants. This serves several pur poses, such as keeping the patch free from weeds, conserving the moisture and forming clean mat for the Der. ries to ripen on.
 After the fruit has r.pened the straw should he removed.

Another interesting decorative detail is silver or dull gold gallon, both of which are very much in favor just now; while the vest, with it's pic turesque roll back collar, delicately picot edged, is supported by a high roll collar of the velvet. And this is but one of similar ideas that run into hundreds. As the cold weather advances, these dresses will be worn more than ever as balance to the weight of fur coat. And they have unquestionably come prepared to sub side into settled acceptance.
