crease the egg yield on the average.
1t would be serious mistake, how
ever, to select year after year the
smallest individuals for breeding pur-
poses without regard to other consid-
erations. Vigor and health must al
ways be uppermost. Continued Sc
lection of the smallest would, in the
Leghorn breed, for example, finally
evolve Bantam type, so far as weight
is concerned. On the other hand, it is
mistake to pick out the nice large
hens and the nice heavy males and
save them for breeding, where eggs
ape the object. Better send those to
the pot"

stage, which was most imperfect
Since then the greatest weavers
have given the best of their time and
thought to developing it into some
thing satisfying, and they have sue
ceeded. The modern version Of this
old fabric is good to look at and good
to wear, but it is costly. Many rea-
sons contribute to that fact. The price
of labor, the price of the looms and
the difficulty of procuring a large
amount Of perfect weaving.
Artistic Colorings.
The colorings in velour are most
artistic. The threads take the deep
rich dyes in manner that pleases the
heart of the dyer. Evidently, there is
a plentiful supply of dyeing matter

HARDNESS OF JERSEY cow
She Has Shown Her Ability to Adapt
Herself to All Conditions, Gil
matte and Otherwise.

A criticism often directed against
the Jersey breed is that the animals
are not hardy enough to stand severe
weather.
Possibly such criticism has as it's
basis the fact that the climate of Jer-
sey island, the birthplace of the
breed, is rather mild. But the criti-
cism has no basis; in fact, Eminent's
Bess, one of the worlds most famous
cows, was bred, raised and made her

Wherever the Jersey COW has gone
she has shown her ability to adapt her
self readily to all conditions, climatic

INDOOR GOWNS IN PROPULSION

rapidly they are picked up by the more
exclusive class of women, showing, one
thinks, that the trend of fashion may
turn this way before the New Year.
These jackets are not after the Elton
model, nor do they have the least re-
lationship with the army jacket of the
British soldiers. They have a tend
ency to become hasques under the
slightest persuasion. The shoulders
are fitted to the figure, there are darts
in front, the fastening is negligible,
with a button at one shoulder and an
other at the waist. In order that a
resemblance to a basque should be
further extended, the darts pinch in
whatever fullness Inight occur at the
waistline. and the peplum is cut in
points.
This is the idea Of Nine. Paquin, and
there are several variations of it. 1t
is quite natural that we should be a
bit weary of the blouse of the peasant
that has been with us for over three
years, and as skirts are definitely long
er, it is well to regard this shortening
of the jacket as an augury of the near
future.

that has seemingly reached it's apex
this season, there is no method by
which it's variety could be boxed into
a small space of written matter.
In coloring, to begin with, it is al
most exotic as the evening gowns
which have borrowed dyes from the
palettes of the fife enth-century paint
ers. There is no hint of the futurist
school in these co;ors. We are not
listening to call from the years to
come but hardening to the far call of
the past, q seemingly fit thing to do
in an epoch which has been turned
backward five centuries in it's method
of DISCRIMINATING mankind.

PITTMAN STRONGER
THAN EVER BEFORE.

The following rs from the Nevadan,
OF Reno. a paper independent in
politics:
The jejune newspapers and self.con-
fessed statesmen who have been JAM
mering about the Pittman land grant
bill betraying the state into the hands
of the cattle barons have succeeded in
doing the exact opposite Of what they
expected to do-to discredit and de-
stroy Pittman. Here in Reno, where
the actuating motives of the calamity
clackers are pretty thoroughly under
stood, Pittman is UNNECESSARILY
stronger than he has ever been before.
and is steadily gaining strength. This
is not due to the fact that any consid-
cradle number of people care particu.
larly about the bill, one way or the
other. but TO resentment of the meth
DDS employed to work his ruin. His
friends are sticking all the closer to
him because they feel that he has been
grossly mistreated: others who were
rather inclined to oppose him are now
his strong supporters. alleging as n
reason that he is on the job in Wash.
ington and is trying to do something
for the state. and that his efforts
should be encouraged and supported
instead Of being belittled and decried
II the bill passes the house, in the
face of the opposition that has beer
offered, 1t will practically insure Pitt
mans nomination and election because
it will demonstrate. beyond question
OF doubt, that his activity and his in
fluence in Washington are such that
the state can i'll afford to dispense
with his services. IT, on the other
hand. the bill should be beaten he car
justly claim the credit of having
passed 1t through the Senate and car
with equal justice lay the blame fol
its defeat in the house to the obstruc
tionlsts here at home. So, whichever
way the cat jumps on this proposition
the agitation has been a big politica
asset to Mr.. Pittman, who is extremely
fortunate in having enemies who rur
more 10 belly than TO brains.
