Of apparel have demonstrated that the
most utilitarian Of garments may be
made with an eye to beauty This is
demonstrated in the overaIl-aprons,
which answer the purpose of house
dresses in summertime. and in the
new breakfast suits which have an at
traction all their own.
These useful garments are turned
out by manufacturers and retailed
through shops at a lower price than
they can be made for at home, if the
housewives time is counted in as
worth anything. The overall-aprons
are described by their names and they
are designed to be slipped on and fas-
tened in the quickest way possible.
They cover the dress completely and
are perfect garments for Homework.
There is a surprising number of styles
in them to choose from. and they are
priced in the neighborhood of dollar.
Heavy percales, ginghams and cham
brays, or any OF the strong cotton ma
terials that stand tubing well are
used for them. The colors are nearly

Strawy beds at night make strawy

Mutton and wool are high enough
to encourage sheep raising, especially
on farms where pasture is sufficient,
with grain, hay and roots.
Heavy or forced feeding during the

will often make it lose its teeth be-

Although it made it's bow somewhat
earlier in the season, this gown was
in the vanguard Of fashions and its
strong points are emphasized now,
since they are all approved styles. The
skirt shows a commendable method of
managing the flare by means of panel
at the front. an inverted V-shaped yoke
at each side, supporting full side
pieces, and two panels that meet at
the center Of the back. Each of these
panels is formed by deep inverted
plaits, so that the skirt sets trinity
about the hips. 1t is finished at the
bottom with heavy silk-covered cord.
The rather plain bodice is cut with
a dropshoulder, and the arm s-eye is
finished with narrow hem. The long,
tapering sleeve is set in under this
hem Yin the same manner as the side
pieces in the skirt are set in the yoke.

is joined to the skirt under a plain

Persian lamb fur, says a writer in
the year book Of the United States
department Of agriculture, can appar-
emily be produced IN the United States
and seems TO present commercial pos
sibilities- At the present time this fur
is brought TO the United States
through Europe from the plateaus OF
Bokhara, a section Of central Asia
lying between Turkestan on the north
and Afghanistan on the south. In this
territory there are from 1900, 900 to A.
600, 900 Of what are known as KarakuI
sheep. the name being derived from
Kara Kul, meaning Black Lake, a vii
lage In the eastern part Of Bokhara.
The fur of the young KarakuI lambs
is in great demands in the large cities
OF the world. and the common practice
is to kill the lambs when but a few
days old, in order to prevent the skin

this fur in the United States. At the
present time there are some so pure
bred Karakul rams and ewes In the
country, and more than 1000 head OF
sheep having one-half or three-fourths
Karakul blood With further Cross
ing these grade ewes should prove
valuable as producers OF fur-bearing
lambs, and, at some later time, OF
breeding rams. Prospective breeders
are warned in the article mentioned,
however. that there is no prospect OF
securing marketable skins by breeding
half-bred rams to ewes OF any class.
It is not enough for the lambs cover
ing to be black in color and curly; Il
is the character Of the fur and the
luster with the blackness that gives
the skin its value Skins possessing
the desired qualities cannot be pro-
duced with half-bred sires.
The future OF the industry in this
country depends very largely upon the
results obtained by mating KarakuI
rams with ewes Of other breeds. Be
tween 1911 and 1915 the department
OF agriculture conducted various breed
ing experiments along these lines, but
all but four OF the sheep used in the
work were lost through the burning
OF a barn in March, 1915. Before this
disaster took place, however, much
useful information had been acquired,
and it is largely as a result OF this
work that the statement is made that
apparently Karakul sheep can be bred
successfully in this country.
The Karakul is q sheep OF medium
size with black face and legs, and
long coarse fleece OF some shade OF
gray. In its home in Bokhsra the
sheep is accustomed to an elevation OF
about 5000 feet and to very hot, dry
summers and long, cold winters. As
result OF this environment It seems
reasonable TO assume that the Karakul
is well adapted to areas OF extreme
temperatures and limited rainfall In
Texas, il has been found that these
sheep, whether imported, native born.
or grades. were better able to resist
cold and storms than animals OF other
breeds. From q mutton standpoint the
conformation OF the Karakul is quite
inferior to that of the British breeds.
though lambs by RarakuI sires from
ewes Of other breeds have made rapid
growth and found ready sale.
