Empire Scarf.

Favorlte skins are white fox, cross iov mole. ermine and Hudson seal, although various other sorts are likely to be worn. The genuine Empire scarf or long straight scarf that varies in width from hrec-cights to onc-half yard is favorite and well deserved one. It drapcs the figure most grace fully, it provides warmth just where warmth is needed and it is so easy to adjust that it is an ideal wrap to slip on and off at moments notice. The foxes are however, largely shown in the natural form. The white fox always is dainty and especially adapted to the younger contingent. Cross fox is serviceablc and rich in color. We will see the brown fox, the blue fox and the silver fox, used to a certain extent. Ermine with its pure lovely white surface seems especially well adapted to wear with summer costumes and great many of the empire scarfs are shown with tails used only as fringe. The absolute purity of the white means consumate charm. What is known as summer Ermine is ex- plotted by some dealers and shows very tender lovely wood brown with white stripe down the center of each skin, for the Ermine that is white in Winter when snow covers the groun'1 is brown in Summer. He is far lc"- familiar to Us in his warm weath~ garb than in the cold, but he is vc-. beautiful in both seasons. The scur

HERO SEA TRAGEDY
 DIES IN ENGLAND

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
 Penarth, wales, June 2S.-The death of Capt. Hamilton Murrell of this town recalls a remarkable rescue of 734 lives which he and his men on the steam2r "Missouri" effected in mid-Atlantic in April, 1889.
 The Missouri" bound from London to Philadelphia, sighted the Danish emigrant vessel "Danmark," from Copenhagen for New York, in distress 500 miles from Newfoundland. She had broken her shaft and had a fear full hole in her hull, into which the water poured while the 665 pas sengers and 69 crew were helpless. They could neither cope with the in- rushing water nor could they lower the lifeboats because of the stormy weather.
 After twenty-four hours of sus- pense, the Missouri appeared On the

The extension d. vision of the university and the agrl- cultural department recommends: Picking and burning squares and practicing consistent, shallow, late cultivation.

CAN THE SURPLUS.

All indications point to higher and higher prices for all food stuffs next winter. How foolish then for farm CTS to have to buy foodstuffs that they can grow, either vegetables or meat. There is hardly a thing now that cannot be canned, even saiisage for summer or sweet potatoes for win ter. Probobly fifty thousand bushels of Arkansas peaches rotted in the or chards last summer. Can the surplus this year. Farmers who do not have peaches will do we'll to buy "seconds" from the orchard and do their own canning. Write for bulletins and Huss gestions on canning fruits and vege- tables to Miss Emma Archer, exten- sion division, University of Arkansas, and United States department of agri- culture, old state house, Little Rock. In 31 counties in Arkansas the farm women have the good fortune to have home demonstration agents who are always ready to help. If tin cans are to be used, it might he well to buy now as in all proba bility prices will go up very soon.
 \ STITCH IN TIME SAVES 95O,OOO.
 Entomologists estimate that one pair of boil weevils emerging early in the year may have before frost in the fall 250.000 living descendants. Therefore, if the first few weevils to emerge are allowed to live they will soon produce enough young weevils to destroy the squares as rapidly as they can be put on. Why not avoid this by watching for the first weevils, picking up the first squares that fall, destroy them and in this way prevent the rapid multiplication of the weevils.

PAPER DOLL PARTY
Original Way Of Entertaining Little
Girls at Afternoon Party-Win-
ner Is Given Prize.

II some little girl is thinking of in.
viting her girl friends in for an after.
noon entertainment a paper doll affair
will prove most original and amusing.
When you invite the girls tell them
each to bring a pair Of scissors.
When all have arrived seat them
at sewing tables and allow them to
choose from the colored fashion plates
the dress each likes best. Heads al.
ready must be cut from advertisements
S o all the children will have to do
is to cut out the dresses. Tissue pa
per. lace paper and all sorts Of odds
and ends Of gilt and silver paper are
placed Oh the sewing tables and with
jars OF library paste a happy hour will
follow. Simple prizes. such as a pair
of scissors, or a paper doll outfit which
is put up by crepe paper houses in
attractive form will prove satisfac-
tory.
One mother who employed this
party to entertain twenty little girls
declared that she never gave a party
which was sc little trouble or gave so
much pleasure. Perhaps the reason is
that the secret of making children as
we'll as grown people happy is to keep
them busy.

ulated in accordance with the soil. eli.
mate and market conditions. Early
planting usually gives the best results.
Good judgment alone will determine
the time to plant.
The method Of planting varies to
some extent. but where large areas
are to be grown the machine planter
is the only practical way. If a good
planter is used and care is taken to
regulate it good work can be done.
Depth of planting is another prac.
tice which should be regulated by sev.
eral conditions, soil, climate, time Of
planting, moisture and cultural meth
DDS. In dry seasons deep planting Is
best. when everything is considered.
three to four inches will prove to be
the best depth to plant. Less than
three inches would be considered shall
low and more than four inches deep
planting. Four-inch planting gave
Az per cent heavier yield than three
inch planting and eight per cen more
than any greater depth of planting, in
experiments in planting 3, 4, S, 6, Z
and s inches. respectively. Deep plant.
ing produced the best quality and the
larger per cen Of merchantable tubers.

s3O0,o00,00o LOSS IS SEEN
Two Million Miles Of Unimproved
Highways In United States-Farm.
era Blamed for Condition.

There are 6,500.00 farmers in the
United States. the most OF whom raise
something for the market" says the
American Highway association.
They have been described by DR.. T.
N. Carver. the Harvard university ~.
pert in economics who was engaged
last year by the department Of agri.
culture to draw plans for the organi.
ration of a rural community, as tenn.
peramentally an independent, head
strong, individualistic class, and.
therefore. difficult to organize. That
they are difficult to organize Is evi.
denced by the fact that there are
1000, 900 miles OF unimproved public
roads in the United States over which
they must haul their products to mar.
ket at a loss Of approximately $780,
600. 900 every year. or about the total
assessed value Of property. real and
personal. in South Carolina. That they
are independent Of good roads to
their own great loss is evidenced by
the enormous waste OF both money
and muscle in trying to do business
without good roads and their appar-
ent lack of interest in compelling their
representatives in legislatures and
congress to provide highways for their
service.
Good roads are equally necessary
to both the production and distribu.
tion Of farm products They are pre-.
requisite says Mr.. Houston. secre-
tary Of agriculture, in his last annual
report. not only to economical produc.
ton and distribution, but to the pro-
motion Of the broader life of commu.
mites. The great need. obviously, is
for roads which will get products from
the farm to the nearest railway sta.
ton, enabling the farmer to haul when
he cannot SOW or reap. and to haul at
a lower rate, to transport his children
to consolidated schools and to enjoy
comfortably his social enterprises
There can be, indeed. no such thing as
community life without good roads. To
assure such life there must be ease OF
communication and transportation.
and. as Doctor Carver expressed 1t.
as the characteristic evils Of urban
life grow out Of congestion. so do the
characteristic evils of rural life grow
out of isolation. Except for a few rare
souls. isolation means stagnation.'
LAS a rule. town schools are better
than country schools because the
means of transportation, or the streets
and roads. are better in the towns
than in the country. On the so-called
great highway between Washington
and Richmond there is a stretch Of
about fifteen miles on which In the
fall and winter farm wagons and auto
mobiles sink to the hubs and traffic is
practically impossible, and this high
way between the two capitals must be
Judged by the soft and not the hard
