MID-SEASON DRESS

variety obtains in cut and color or
fabric combination that 1t is difficult
for apycne with the slightest knack
at sewing or with artistic ideas to
go very far wrong.
Printed and plain white voile are
suggested as suitable for the little
frock shown in the sketch, although
plain and dotted handkerchief linen,
checked Bingham and plain color
chambray, etc, might be used as eff
fectively.
The double tunic is suggestive Of a
style line that Is to be given consider
able prominence In the first showing
Of fall frocks. Advance bulletins and
advance models carry out an Illusion
Of brevity in length and breadth OF
skirts, while they are In reality longer
and narrower than those generally fa-
vored at present, and the long tunlc
aids very materially In this illusion,
the undersklrt being reasonably close
reefed and modestly long, while the
upper skirt or tunic is given n decided
fare. The hosiery display Of the past
season or two will not be looked on
with favor In the fall, as practically
all frocks brush lower than the shoe
tops.
The little frock in the sketch is, how
ever, distinctly a summer model, and
! excellent for tub fabrics. The back
of the bodice has a deep round yoke,
coming below the shoulders, Of white
wolfe, and the back of the skirt is ex-
actly like the front, paneled in white
and printed wolfe. The dress fastens
In the center front.
To make this gown, three yards Of
plain fabric SO inches wide and seven
and a half yards of figured material
the same width will be required. The
bottom skirt measures four yards
wide. A bright ribbon is used for the
girdle.
The generous use of ribbon as a
trimming or finishing touch on sum-
mer frocks is a notable feature, and II
strengthens the quaint and picturI
esque tendency of the seasons APP
parel.
Ribbons will be used rather freely
on the next seasons evening frocks.
COlOred silk or bead embroideries are
favorite trimming touches for mOdish
utility gown of serge or ~gaberdine.
The tendency to favor a lower waist
line is more and more emphasized as
the early fall models see the light of

GET RID OF HARMFUL MITES
Parasites Sap All Life Out Of Hens
and Cut Down Egg supply-HaVe
Thorough Cleaning.

If you are going to be a successful
poultryman, young man, you must get
after the mites. They sap all the life
out Of the hens, and cut down the egg
supply enormously. They kill off large
numbers of the most promising chicks.
They are the worst enemies with
which your flock has to contend.
But you can get rid of them If you
will. Have a thorough house cleaning
some fine day. Clean up the dirty
floor. Take out the rOOsts and scrape
them, and clean out the dirty nests.
If they are too badly infested, burn
them up and make some new ones.
Brush down the cobwebs from the
corners.
Then take a spray pump and spray
the whole inside of the poultry house,
getting into all the cracks and corn
ers with a mixture of one part crude
carbOlic acid to ten of kerosene. This
kills any of the mites which may have
fed to the cracks and crevlces for
safety. After this is dry, put on the
whitewash. It may be put on with
the same spray pump, but it sticks
better and lasts longer If it is put on
with a brush. Lice and mites can't
stand whitewash.
After the whitewash has thoroughly
dried, reft the house with clean roCsts
and nests, and put some clean straw
on the floor. If you wish, you car
dust the hens OF with lice powder be.
fore admitting them to the house. Re
peat busting again in about a week, OF
better, apply the blue ointment. 1t is
a very good time to do the job. If you
will do this you will find that the lice
have departed for some other hen
house whose owner is not so good Q
pOultryman as you.

Pronounced Feature Of the Seasons
Styles Is a Thing That Has to
Be Recognized.

Buttons are not at all left in the
lurch because of the amount Of hand
work used. In fact, they serve TO ac-
centuate the special feature of the
waist, coat or suit they adorn. But
tons increase the Importance of pOck-
cts, belt and capes and give themselves
a chance to assume extraordinary
shapes and sizes.
Because of the vogue for dark suits
with white hats, shoes or CATERS, white
ivory buttons are allowed. Sometimes
they are ringed with black or a fash
ionable color, sometimes they have n
pearl center, but all of them are light
in weight, and that accounts for at
least part of their popularity. They
are also made on dark taffeta dresses.
Those used on coats and suits are
more conservative, mushroom and
saucer shapes being the most popular.
Balls, squares and cubes are also en-
ployed, as well as acOrns. Pearl but
tons come In all sizes and shapes, from
the large ball buttons, appropriate for
novelty suits, and the fiat styles for
separate skirts, to the tiny Ones for
shirtwaists. Heavy cOlored materials
make use of ribbed buttons.
Checked suits may be thanked for
the plain and checked button, as well

About the First Thing Is for One to
Become an Adept in Tying
a Bow.

This is a ribbon season, as we all
know, and the shops, naturally, have
put forth a big and goOdly supply of
attractive ribbons in response to the
demand fashion has made for them.
Do you know how to tie a bow?
Probably not. In this day of special
ization few women do know how to
tie more than a lingerie or hair rib
bon. We leave it for the s~aleswOman
at the ribbon counters, for our dress
makers and our milliners to tie bows
Of every other sort.
To begin with, If you would tie
bows successfully, buy a reel of fine
covered wire and use 1t to tie the
loops in position. This, for instance,
Is the way a professional ties n sash
rosette for a child's frock. She takes
one end of two or three yards Of rib
bon and measures off about thirty
inches to go around the waist. Then
she makes as many loops as she
wishes, gathering the ribbon for each
through her fingers.
Next she measures off with her
right hand, holding the loops In her
left, enough ribbon for the two ends,
and, at the end of this ribbon makes
n more loop. This leaves a long
loop of ribbon, later to be the two
ends, and with one of them ties
around the rosette loops, so making
n end shorter than the other.
MORE ribbon is perhaps prettiest
for children's sashes, although a stiff
quality of taffeta nswer the same
purpose well. The soft satin ribbons
are not so pretty on children as are

herents. There are purplish blues,
nickel and gunmetal grays, several
charming reds, including fuchsia, ge-

exclusively fashionable with a gamut
from bisque to chocolate. The great

be chameleon, each chameleon shade
combining two others in shot effect.
