No one knows better than the motor
ist Just what she demands in head
except the people whose busi-
ness lies in supplying her demands.
Motor hats look simple, but they exact
much of the designers, whose difficult
task lies in making them comfortable,
durable, attractive and in line with the
changing styles. Their manufacture
has grown to a business of great impor-
tance, and specialists in this particu-
lar line of millinery leave nothing un-
done that will make for the success Of
their product. A rapidly and, con-
stantly increasing demand rewards
them.
The two motor hats shown here
are selected from q collection of many
that have been designed for the com
Ing season. Most of them are made
by combining pliable millinery braids
with silk, but the collection includes
others made entirely of silk or other
fabrics. Among the latter those Of
the smart new stripes In jersey cloth
are gay and novel.
The most important factor in the
success OF a motor hat is its fit. This
has been assured in the two hats pic
tured, by the insertion Of the head
band of elastic cord that holds the
hat close to the head. This clever bit
Of management has been patented.
The hat at the left has q grace
fully shaped brim covered with tan
colored braid and soft crown OF
green silk. A band. made Of the braid

FEED FOR FATTEMING SWINE
Mixture Of Grains Adds Variety to

Rye as feed for hogs ranks slight
ly below corn. The difference is so
small, however, that for all practical
purposes bushel of rye may be con-
sidered as equal to bushel of corn
for fattening hogs.
Since a mixture of grains adds va
riety to the ration. It is often desir-
able to feed some rye in connection
with corn. 1t should be ground or II

of the spring and summer styles.

elaborate collars are about to pass
