The peplums, too, are treated in different ways. Many are made with the new normal waistlines, but there are still a few with the raised waistIines. Usually, with the peplum idea, the waist has

 Velvet Combines with Hemp and Chip
 Velvet is one of the fads in summer hats. However, it is seldom used alone and this season it combines with hemp and chip. One particularly attractive hat has wide soft brim of white hemp, with the low, close-fitting crown of black velvet finished at the front with swirl of black velvet. This Is held at the center with a pin stuck through diagonally. The head of the pin is a flower cut out of flat piece of wood and painted in color.
 And, so it goes, each hat is story in itself, absolutely different from the neighbor.
 Oriental Parasols
 Parasols are the one Oriental note In the fashions While there are some long handled, fluffy models shown, the Japanese parasol is by far the favorite. These are made of silk, cotton crepe and paper-blunt at the end with many ribs and flat when opened. They come in broad awning stripes, plain colors and lowered. The very latest is the Garden of Eden" This is a curious affair with black ebony handle, white ivory ribs and a white crepe top print ed in black to represent Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, with all the trees and animals present.

Midsummer Hats of Satin

Satin hats are an innovation of the midseason. Large shapes are favored in these, and trimmings are unique and original. A broad-brimmed white satin has flat bow inserted in slits in the front of the crown; a black satin has white velvet birds pasted flat on the crown, and still another

1914, same period, eleven months of
which was under the Underwood tariff
law, our export trade fell to $780,
1885, 91, a decrease Of about $780,
000, 600. Had there been a normal ex-
port trade in munitions of war, our
export trade for 1915 would, no doubt
have fallen below the two billion
mark.
For this same period in 1914-1915
our import trade PARTICLES WHICH com

$1,669, 698 ,934, compared with ST.
906,657,515 for the same period in
1913-1914, the first year of the I'm
derwood tariff law, a decrease of
$237 900 1000, showing the extent to
which the war performed the office of
a protective tariff proxy, so that it
is not unreasonable to say that the
European war benefited this country
to the extent of fully one billion dol
lars in export trade and $237 ,000-
900 import trade, and this does not
take into consideration the undoubted
fact that our import trade in 1915
would have been far greater than in
1914, had hostilities not resulted in
embargoes decreased tonnage, the
foreign manufacture of war munitions
instead of competitionory products,
and the sending of millions of foreign
laborers to the firing line. For the
same period, 1912-1913, under the
Republican tariff law, our imports
amounted to 81, 786,297, $3.50, or but
SIG, $780, 900 greater than the 1914
1915 period under all the trade de-
m~oralizations of the war.
This 81, 7s6 ZOO, 900 of imports in
1912-1913 produced a Government
revenue of ~$318,542,112, or an aver

$275, 1857, 818, of which $51, OOO, 900
should be credited to Republican
rates which were in effect for the
first few months of the Democratic

A QUESTIONABLE RECORD

Washington, Oct. 20. Especial cor
respondence.) Exports to the value
of three billion dollars for the period
September, 1914, to August, 1915, is
the new record set by this country, ac-
cording to figures recently made pub
lie by the Department of Commerce.
The nearest approach to this record
for this particular period, was in
1928, under a Republican admin
istration, when exports amounted to
two billion and a half of dollars. This
was the highest tide of our export
trade under normal conditions. It
came about as a result of our self
suficiency at home and legitimate
trade competition for foreign mar
kets. 1t was unattended by any brass
band announcements, or countrywide
press-agenting by the administration
then in power. 1t was made up of
products which added to the enjoy
ment of life, not largely of those used

SAVE THE STRAW STACKS.

10y lIOl. 4IIOIIldo OIldWs
The crops in the Dakotas and Mon
tana are phenomenal as every one
knows. This relates to the straw as
we'll as to the grain. It may be years
before the like of it may be seer
again. Because of the very abund-
ance of the straw yields, the danger
is imminent that much of it will be
wasted, ever when the crop is normal
the common custom is to burn much
of the straw in some places, nearly
all of it. 1t should not be burned.
The aim should be to use all of it for
gedding or as food for live stock. If
it cannot be cared for thus, it should
be spread over the ground and buried.
There are machines that will do this
now and that will do it effectively.
The straw in dry areas is very
valuable for food, especially when it
has been cut in season. 1t is richer
in nutrients than the straw in more
humid sections. It is also much
more palatable as it is brighter, and
usually is free from rust. 1t is really
too bad to have a forkfull of that
| straw burned, now it will probably
happen that many farmers will not
have the stock to consume all of that
straw. What should they do with it?
Why leave it in the stack and hold it
over for another year. In dry areas
it is always a good plan to carry
foodstuffs, both fodder and grain, at
least to some extent from n year
to another. This will greatly help
out the farmer when a dry season
comes.
In the winter of 1914-1915, it came
to the knowledge of the writer that
some farmers drew straw for 20
miles in some limited areas in order
to save their stock. Next year may
be very dry, we never can tell before
hand. Should that be the case, the
unused straw stacks would render.
great service in the winter that fol-
lows. These stacks do not waste as
they would do in humid areas, hence
they will furnish good food for a long
time after they have been made.
The greatest want of soils usually
in dry areas is the want of humus
soils aver that are newly broken in
areas of short rainfall are usually
!: low in humus. Then the practice be-
comes common to burn the straw,
each crop grown just reduces the
humus by the amount of the straw
that is burned. The men who head
their grain lose far less humus than
the men who reap it, providing they
don't burn off the stubbles. When
land is thus robbed of it's humus
the soil gets out of mechanical bal
ance. so that it is harder to till. 1t
does not hold moisture sc we'll, nor
are the plants so we'll furnished with
nutrients. 1t is true of nearly all
western soils that they are much
more in need of a liberal supply OF
humus than they are in need of ferti-
lization.
That the quality of the straw may
be good, it is hoped that the farmers
will stack the grain where it is not
to be threshed quite soon after har-
vest, such stacking will aid much in
maintaining the quality of the straw.
But the stacking should be done for
another and more important reas m.
It will make sure that the grain will
not be spoiled should the weather
prove adverse, for when ice stacked

process used in the device have been
made very simple, and yet are such
as to insure reliable samples. The
device does not require power of any
kind, as it's principle is the distribu-
ton by gravity of the material to be
sampled over a cone, which is pro-
vided with separate ducts in a way to
insure thorough mixture of the grain.
The device also can be so arranged
that one half of the sample a be
used for testing and grading, and ten
second half provided for the seller or
buyer. It can also be used for blend
ing two or more streams of wheat or
other grain in one or more sets of
rows in a mill. The device also can

like kind, or to mix or blend and d.

batting rally in the sixth inning,
which consisted of six safe drives, one
of which was double, allowed the
Nationals to score enough runs yes
terday to overcome a three-run lead,
which the Indians had gained in the
very opening inning.
Joe Boehling did not display form,
and before he could be retired the
visitors had made five hits and scored
three runs. That seemed enough to
settle the game, for five innings and a
half at least, but in the sixth the locals
fell on Morton and showed over five
runs. This was increased to six a
short time later, when a run came in
the seventh
Up to this time Morton had pitched
brilliant game of ball and it seemed
certain the Griffmens goose had been
once more cooked. But he weakened
badly in the sixth. while Gallia, who
took Boehling's place in the second,
improved as the game went along. He
was hit safely five times, but never
more than once in an inning. and he
did not allow a single run.
That big inning will long be remem-
bered by local fans. Foster started
matters by driving the ball directly at
Morton, who partly knocked it down,
but Foster reached first and earned a
single. Shanks sent him all the way
to third with double to right center,
and the bases were filled when Milan
beat out a bunt. Gandil followed suit
with a drive through Wambsganns,
and Morgan and Henry also came
through with hits. all of which netted
five runs. In the very next inning
Foster again started with a hit, and
Mortons error on Shanks put him on
third. Milans bunt again filled the
bases, but Foster died at the plate
when Gandil hit to Turner. who made
perfect throw to the plate. A long
sacrifice fly by Morgan, however,
brought Shanks home
This is how the Indians got their
runs. With one down Turner singled.
So did Chapman, and then Wood
tripled, sending in two runs. He
scored himself on an infield out, and
then Smith and O'Neil also hit safely,
but no more runs resulted. The score
tells the rest of the story.

Manager Griffith will pit Doc Ayers
against the Indians today. Ayers has
rot started a game this spring, and
Griffith figures that he ought to be
worked regularly from now so as to be
in form when the double-header season
rolls around. Ayers, when at his best.
is most effective pitcher and if he is
right in the game today he is very apt
to make it three out of four from the
Indians.
Just which one of his pitchers Mama
ger Foil will send to the mound is
problema tical. but it is likely to be
Willie Mitchell, who seldom has scored
a victory over the Griffmen. though ne
always pitches good ball against them.
There will be no change in the line

the Indians learned this fact to their
sorrow yesterday when they tried to take
liberties on the bases. Morton took too
long lead off of second in the fifth
and Henrys throw to Mcbride nailed
him Leibold tried to steal in the same
inning and Henry also nailed him.
Incidentally, the big catcher did
yeoman service behind the bat. especially
in the matter of helping out Gallia.
Gallia displayed excellent form yester-
day He broke into the game in the
second inning after Boehling had been
chased, and the Indians never scored
thereafter. He struck out five and walked
but two, and at least two of the five hits
charged against him were Of the scratch
variety. Gallia has proved himself
valuable addition to the pitching stan
this season. and when worked regularly
he always is sure to give a good account

unable to take the field per sched-

information came at such a short no

apparent negligence of Mr.. McGrath
caused quite few followers of both

Marines will be appreciated and with
