be used against them successfully.
Briefly. insects may be divided into
two classes. One develops from the
egg to the adult without any resting
stage. Insects belonging to this class
are said to have an incomplete change
OF form. The other class has a resting
stage in its life-history, and insects
belonging to this class are said to have
a complete change OF form. In in
complete change of form there are
three stages in the life cycle OF the
insects. First, the egg, which is laid

DRINKING WATER FOR FOWLS
insanitary Condition Remedied by
Use Of Old Cheese Box-Good
Arrangement for Chicks.

When you go out to supply your
fowls with fresh drinking water, is the
vessel full of dirt or litter? This in
sanitary condition used TO bother us
a lot, even though we used poultry
drinking fountains, says writer In an
exchange.
A good remedy follows: Procure an
old cheese box and split off the bottom
half OF il around the sides, then put
the fowls drinking vessel on top OF
this. Ii will not take long for you TO
note difference in regard to cleanli-
ness.
For small chicks another plan has
proved excellent. Fill basin level
full CT pebbles slightly smaller than
hens eggs; then sink the basin In the
ground. leaving the rim an inch above
the surface, and fill with water. The
chicks run all over this, yet they can
not push one another into the water
and drown, and scarcely being able to
get their feathers wet. They drink
between the pebbles. The pans are
easily cleaned, and the pebbles help
keep the water cool for several hours
in the summer and warm in the winter

SUMMER FASHIONS

The peplum is still with us. Many
summer blouses are made with short
skirt-like Russian blouses-or a
shorter peplum that is worn outside
the skirt
Lace berthas give a particularly
dainty and summary look to thin
frocks OF silk or muslin.
Striped parasols are effective with
plain colored or white suits.
Some of the new boudoir caps
which are often called negligee caps
now, by the way-are made like chill
dren's bonnets, with strings to tie un-
der the chin.
Pockets are more and more capa-
cious. Many of the new linen frocks
for summer wear have huge pockets,
almost like bags. applied on the
skirts.
A charming new hat is trimmed
with real butterflies, properly dried,
and placed under white tulle for pro-
lection.

Simulated Cape Effect.

Another novelty is a short coat, with
a simulated cape at the back. This
idea was expressed in a black and
white check suit, hemmed with the
new enamel black braid. The coat
was arranged on surplice lines in
front, fastening on the left side with
the aid Of a tab passing through a
large slot. The collar was arranged
with a pretty cascade effect, while the
back of the coat was nothing but a
suggestive cape. The designers Of
these capes believe that their career
will be so prosperous that they are
making motor coats with capes with
out sleeves. The cape drapery at the
back has a small yoke, while at the
hem it is attached to the skirt of the
wrap. which is very voluminous.

fabrics that bear these designs once

when women dressed according to
the climate. For decades, it has
been an American joke that If a man
turned up his trousers, it was rain

admission to mans slavishness to Eng
lish fashions; but recently, women
have worn the fashions of icy st.

is also admirable, even If a bit more
expensive than bingham, and the
dressmakers have already turned to
1t for frocks for garden parties and
even for afternoon weddings in the
open.

DWARF APPLE TREE STOCKS
Como Into Bearing Somewhat Earlier
Than on Standard Stocks, Says
New York Station.

Apple trees propagated on dwarf
stocks come into bearing somewhat
earlier than on standard stocks. This
is the experience OF ten years study
by the New York station. The French
paradise stock is somewhat subject
to winter-killing In fact, the injury
and loss from this cause was so heavy
that conclusions from the expert
ments cannot be drawn at this time.
There is considerable confusion In
the trade between the doucin and the
French paradise stocks. The para
disc stocks grown by English nursery
men are similar to the doucin stocks
grown across the channel.
The growth of the dwarf tree is
largely individual Many varieties
throw out roots from the cions. IL the
union between the. stock and the cion
ground. This makes ii necessary TO
remove the cion roots. otherwise one
will get standard or semi-dwarf trees.
Then the suckering habit OF the
dwarf stocks must be contended with.
A further disadvantage Is the rela-
tive shallow roofing system OF the
dwarf stock so that the trees are like
ly TO be blown over In exposed situa-
tions or where high winds prevail. Al
though these dwarf trees came into
commercial bearing somewhat earlier
than standards the tests have not yet
shown that they are more profitable.
The station authorities believe that
the dwarf trees are likely to be moro
valuable to amateur than to CONNER
cial growers.
