trinity straight down the middle of the
front, 1t will be noticed, which Is a
consummation devoutly to be wished
in the coat for spring.
This is one of many models IN
black and white checks, more or less
large, usually more. Even in suits few
very small checks are shown. In them
and in coats the moderately large star
check seems to be best liked. The
wide pointed belt and oddly shaped
pockets give this design individuality.
The collar and cuffs are gracefully
shaped and finished with panels OF
black silk. In the collar one may see
how clearly the designer has taken
advantage of the small cape idea with
out copying 1t outright. In the buttons
used irregular white stripes appear
on a black background. They might
be effectively made Of molds covered
with black silk with greater elegance,
but less durability. Speaking OF but
tons, many of them in coats and suits
are made of the same fabric as the gar
ment.

BID THE THRUSHES WELCOME
These Birds Do Farmer Little Harm
and Much Good-Hard to Over
estimate Their Value.

That the group Of birds in which
are included robins and bluebirds do
a great deal of good and very little
harm to agriculture, is the conclusion
reached by investigators who have
carefully studied the food habits Of
these birds. Altogether there are
within the limits of the United States
eleven species of thrushes, five Of
which are commonly known as robins
and bluebirds. The other six include
the Townsend solitaire. the wood, the
veery, the gray-cheek, the olive-back
and the hermit thrushes.
The robins and bluebirds nest close
to houses, and even the shyest OF the
other species are content with the se-
clusion of an acre or two of woodland
or swamp. For this eason these are
among the best known and most care
fully protected of native American
birds, and at times their numbers be-
come so great that 1t Is feared they
will do much harm to crops and fruit.
Recent investigations, however, show
that there is very little ground for this
fear. On the other hand, they destroy

A most appetizing filling for any

which has been thinned with a little
of the seasoned oil and vinegar from
oil pickles, with bit Of the pickles
chopped and added with tablespoon
full or two of finely chopped boiled

A green pepper finely chopped

Olives stuffed or plain, pickles of vari-

One more example of the success
full management of lines and adjust
ment by means Of new departures in
the garment-cutters' art may be stud
led in the coat pictured above. In the
new spring models cutters appear to
have thrown tradition to the winds,
but the coats justify them in this in
dependence.
1t appears that the designers are
striving to achieve the required full
ness without making coats cumber-
some, and to give to the figure the cor
rect silhouette. In the model shown
here the back of the coat and top of
the sleeves appear to be cut in one
piece. The introduction of Pc
culiarly shaped underarm piece leads
one to think that this eccentricity of
cut is often made with an eye to its
decorative value as we'll as to the
hang of the garment. The fronts
are extended toward the back in a
curved line over the hips, and contrib
ute their share of the fullness about
the bottom of the coat. 1t hangs

COVER CROPS FOR ORCHARDS
Means Provided for Preventing Win.
ter Soil Erosion, and to Hold
Moisture in Spring.

(By c. w. RAPP, Department Of Horti-
culture, Oklahoma Agricultural Col
lege)
Any orchardist who neglects COW
er crops is missing a good oppor-
tunity for improving his orchard. In
fact, we might almost say that the
cover crop is an essential. It's use Of
fers a means of preventing winter soil
erosion, adding humus and retarding
fall growth of trees.
Cover crops are especially impor-
tant in hillside orchards. If the soil
in these orchards Is left bare the heavy
fall, winter and spring rains will wash
Off the top soil and reduce the land
to rough infertile condition. Cover
crops will largely prevent this erosion
and will also cause large amounts Of
water to be held in the soil during the
winter and spring.
Oklahoma soils are generally def
cient in humus and nitrogen. The
summer cultivation which is recon-
mended for orchards in this state pre-
vents the growing of summer crops.
Cover crops are, however, beneficial
to the orchard, and when plowed up
in the spring aid greatly in improving
soil conditions.
Wet falls are especially trying to
orchards. The wet weather causes
the trees to take on new growth
which Is easily winter-killed Cover
crops will aid greatly in preventing
this growth. They utilize the surplus
moisture and the result is that late
growth Is largely prevented.
Wheat, barley and rye are especial
ly adapted to Oklahoma conditions.
These crops should be planted as soon
as possible in order to get well es-
tablished before cold weather. This
early planting is especially important
In case of wet weather conditions.

The Bluebird.

such a vast number Of insects each
year that it is probable that without
them many crops would suffer serious
damage.
The bluebird has not been accused,
as far as known, of stealing fruit or Of
preying upon crops. An examination
of SS5 stomachs showed that 68 per
cert of the food consists of insects and
their allies, while the other 32 per
cent is made up of various vegetable
substances, found mostly in stomachs
taken in winter. Beetles constitute 21
per cent of the whole food, grasshop-
pers %, caterpillars 10, and various
other insects 8, while a number of
spiders and myriapods, about six per
cent, comprise the remainder of the
animal diet. All these are more or
less harmful, except a few predacious
beetles, which amount to per cent.
In view of the large consumption of
grasshoppers and caterpillars we may
at least condone this offense, IL such 1t
may be called.

If the styles designed for small girls,
by great authorities in the realm of
apparel, are faithfully copied. Spring
frocks for the little miss are enticingly
pretty and leave nothing to be wished
for.
Speaking generally of frocks for
"dress-up" wear, skirts are full and
short and much befrilled. In many
models there is no waist line and
sleeves are merely puffs or ruffies Of
thin materials that cover part Of the
top of the arms. In wash frocks, for
daily wear, the sleeves are elbow or
three-quarter length. There are excep-
tions, however, with sleeves reaching
to the wrist.
One of the simplest Of little silk
dresses for girl of five, or more. years
Is shown here. II Is made of foulard
silk in dark color with scattered
dots of white over its surface. The
skirt is set on to a very short plain
bodice, square at the neck and fasten-
ing in the back with row of tiny but
tons set close together. The neck Is
outlined with fiat shirred pun Of the
silk, and the frock is worn over an
underbody Of organdie.
