In Trego county 796 persons got
their names on the poll books, that
being but little if any more than one
third of the voters in the county,
and the total cost of the recent pri-
mary election was S742.49, or about
one dollar for each voter attending
the election.
The highest number of effective
votes was GAL, that being the number
OF persons who expressed a preference
with regard to the office of Sheriff
and Probate Judge. 1t is something
OF coincidence that the number
should be the same in both cases.
At each of the ten precincts a few
women voted, the total number be-
ing 1913, or practically one fourth of
the total vote
Just 400 people went to the polls in
WaKeeney precinct-just a little
more than one half of the whole
number.

tion plan of nominating candidates
is father expensive luxury 1t
further appears to be a rather diff
cult way for western Kansas man
to get himself nominated on the state
ticket. And it may lake him a long

FOR EVENING WEAR
SMART EEOck DESIGNED ALONG
ORIENTAL LINES.
Blue Tuiie and Silver Sequins En-
p'oyed to Get The Desired Effect
Will Look Best on Tall, Rather
Slender FIGURE.

Oriental, in name 1T least, is the
smart little evening fruck shown in
the sketch. The "ASsyrian'' bodice is
Of blue and silver scquins, and the
gown proper is Of blue tulle in the
same shade over cloth Of silver. The
long, straight panel-shaped train is Of
royal blue velvet lined with cloth of
silver and adorned with silver and
blue sequin motifs, the same decora-
tive touch appearing OF the front Of
the skirt.
This is essentially Il gown for q tall,
slender figure, and while it is youth
full, like most apparel Of the present
day, the gown is not designed for a
debutante. The tendency is to omit
the train when designing an evening
gown for a very young woman, and
the clever little empire models fea-
tured by a number Of American, as
well rs European, designers are decid-
edly popular.
In no class of apparel is the ques-
ton of skirt length 50 difficult as it is
in evening gowns. While modest m
kle length is recorded rs entirely cor
rect in all tailored garments, evening
gowns run to extremes, the smarteSt
models being either very short or very
long ana sweeping.
Glittering spangled effects appear
more and more as the season advances
in the trimming or construction Of eve
ming gowns. Silvcr-and-lold cloth,
metal embroiderics, either forming the
entire gown or the bodice, as shown in

E~Xtrayagant claims are sometimes
made regarding the influence Of nj
trate of soda upon the yield and earli-
ness of certain vegetable crops. par
ticularly those Of which Il yegetative
part constitutes the edible product.
The claims are especially emphatic in
reference to early-planted crops, since
much Of their growth must be made
at a time when conditions in the soil
are not favorable for rapid nitritica-
ton; and the supplying of nitrogen III
il readily available form at such a
time would TO promise good re-
suits. In view Of these considerations
it was thought best to make some tests

Excellent Idea for Gift.

Here is a splendid idea for a quickly
made gift, but one should send a card
proclaiming its use or else the reclpl-
ent will be at Il loss. The gift IS i
laundry bag made of a square OF mate
rial. Since everyone aims 10 nave
ones belongings as bright and as at
tractive as possible, the bag should be
made of cretonne, which is prettlly
decorated and which is heavy enough
for the purpose. Hem the four sides
of the square. Turn back each cor
ner and embroider the recipients in
itial on one corner On each of the
blunted corners fasten q loop OF tape.
BY the four loops the square is hung
on Il nail in ones closet. The result Is
a bag into which one can easily tuck
soiled clothes.
Similar bags for smaller articles can
be made in the same way. Lighter
materials can be used for this purpose.
Large silk handkercpjefs would prove
ua.ful.

PROTECT CLOVER FROM RAIN
Best Practice to Allow Crop to Become
Ripe as Possib!e-Cut in Good,
Dry Weather.

An inferis grade of clover seed is
produced wen the clover is allowed
to lie in wi1drows in the field fer sew
eral weeks before it is hulied. Vary
ing proportions Of the seeds become
brown and often actually lose al ger
minating powers.
The best practice is to allow the
clover to become as ripe as possible
without loss from Smelling when the
seed is harvested. Cut it in good, dry
weather and then protect it from ex-
posture to rains. Provided q hu}ler
can be procured at once, hulling direct
from the field will economic labor.
If it is necessary to delay the hull
ing. damage and loss TO the seed crop
will be avoided by storing the clover
In a barn or in Il carefully constructed
and w~ell-covered stack.

Spanish Modes Find Favor.

A Spanish chapeau shown by one of
the best known Parisienne milliners
caused much favorable comment and
many copies this fall. 1t is Il dashing,
effective mode and one that is most be-
coming to the majority OF women. Not
little silk scarf that is tied around the
head in true toreador fashion, topped
by the chapeau, that is usually black.
But the Spanish hat has influenced
the sports hat, and many will be repro
duced for wear With sports clothes this
season. Not only is the hat the only
Spanish note to be observed in this
realm of fashion, for quite as often is
seen the mantilla of lace, used in yari-
Gus ways by the Paris couturiers in
their latest offerings. Chantilly lace
has been revived, both in black and
white and also reproduced in the vari-
Gus metallic threads.
Straight, full skirts, a bit longer
than those we have bccn wearing, also
carry out this idea and the pointed
bodice frequently seen iii evening
frocks for this winters wear, is an
other note of Importance.
Laces such as the Spanish women
wear are easily made at Lyons and will
probably be much in evidence for
spring. There will also be a revival Of
the high carved comb, SO typical of the
Spanish modes.
