clever petticoat of taffeta, made to
wear with full frocks of sheer mate
rials, substitutes wide frill about the
hips for the hoop which is usually in
serted in a casing in the gown. II
has several points of advantage over
the hoop. The flare In the frill results
from the stiffness of the taffeta and is
supported by parallel corded tucks.
The tucks are run in at two-inch inter
walls and a cord is run in the narrow
hem which extends about the bottom
and sides of the frill.
The petticoat is finished with shall
low scallOps about the bottom, outlined
with narrow frills which are extended
into rOsettes. 1t is shirred in at the
waistline TO bodice and fastens in
the back. The frilI may be separate
and fastened On at the waistline with
snap fasteners, so that the petticoat
will serve for wear with other gowns
as well as those with wide flare
about the hips. With frocks of this
character the frill is more graceful
than the hoop and easier to manage. II
is acceptable TO women who VIII moi
go to the extreme Of the hoop and is
especially effective with dancing
frOcks.
Taffeta is not the only silk used for
petticoats but is the best choice for
one of this particular kind. The Japa-
nese wash silks and crepe de chine
have steadily advanced in favor for
making under-garments. Aside from
the softness and luxury of silk II is
the easiest of fabrics to launder. Like
many fine, sheer cottOns the soft, thin
silks are far more durable than they
look. They are TO be washed in luke
warm water with white soap and
ironed when about halfway dry. and
they emerge from the right kind of
washing and ironing with their orig

SKIM MILK Is MOST
IMPORTANT PRODUCT
No Better System Regulator on
Market-Protein Necessary
in Every Ration.

Skim milk Is one of the most inn
portant products of the farm II fed In
proper quantities. There Is no better
system regulator on the market not
excepting wheat or bran. Constipation
vanishes when 1t is fed In sufficient
quantity and all bowel complaints are
bettered. II has about the same effect
on pigs and chickens as oats has on
horses.
Practically. all the protein of the
flesh building part of the whole milk
is left I'm the skim milk. This protein
Is necessary in every ration especially
In the feeding of young stock. Con-
sidered from the standpoint Of fertiliz-
ing and feeding, protein Is the most
expensive portion Of the milk. When
you purchase milk and other expensive
feeds the price paid depends upon the
amount of protein they contain. II
pigs have been fed on corn for a long
time until they have lost their appe-
tite for IL, skim milk, even II fed In
only small quantities, will help very
much In remedying this condition.

WILD PARSNIP is A
MOST DEADLY WEED
Plant Is Quite Dangerous to Live
Stock-Children Poisoned
by Eating Roots.
py GEORGE H. GLOVER, Colorado As-

CBy GEORGE II. GLOVER, Colorado Ag-
ricultural College, Fort Collins, Colo)
Wild parsnip is not the common
garden parsnip that has escaped from
cultivation and grown wild. The lat
ter has a more yellowish flower and
Il tap root. What is commonly called
wild parsnip" is the Wyoming water
hemlock (Cicuta occidentalis) which
greatly resembles the garden parsnip
but has a whittier flower the leaflets
finely toothed along the margin, and
cluster of roots.
The American water hemlock is one
W the most poisonous plants native
30 the United States and the poison
is found largely In the roots, espec-
tally of the matured plants. This plant
is very deadly to live stock, especially
cattle.
Every year we have reports OF
children being poisoned by eating the
roots of wild parsnip and parents will
do well to caution their children
against touching any wild plant that
has an unbrella-shaped top, that
looks like the garden parsnip.

is not much change in collars except
that che cape collar has grown less at

went ahead. Perhaps she was nerv'
Gus perhaps she forgot to put In some
necessary ingredients; however that
may be, the dumpllngs were a dismal
failure. They were fiat and heavy and
off color, and Elizabeth, who was heart
broken over IL, wanted to throw them
into the alley, or give them to the de-
serving poor, but Mrs. Turner didn't
like to see anything go to waste, so
she had them served up.
The members of the family ate some
steak and potatoes and then tackled
the dumpllngs. After eating IA small
portion, old Mr.. Turner reared up and
yelled, and bit piece out of the back
of his chair and then began rolling
around on the floor. Then Robert
Gregson Turner gave good imitation
of contortionlst; and presently Mrs.
Turner and the clerks did some ground
and lofty tumbling. Chirurgeons and
apothecaries were summoned, and of
course, they decided that the family
had been poisoned with arsenic. And
who but Elizabeth Fenning could have
administered the poison? Her guilt
was manifest. SO Elizabeth went to
Jail.
A great mass of evidence was in
troduced by the prosecution at the
trial, and all of il was so trifiing as
to be absurd. Great stress, for in
stance, was laid upon the fact that
Elizabeth had repeatedly asked per-
mission to make apple dumplings. This
was considered conclusive proof that
she had contemplated the crime a long
time. It didn't occur to anybody that
dumplings were not necessary to the
administering of arsenic. Had she
been anxious to poison the Turner'S
she had opportunities every day.
Mrs. Turner testified at great length,
and in every sentence showed her
hatred of the girl. She testified that
there had been paper of arsenic In
the drawer of the kitchen table, and
when she recovered from her sickness
she looked for the paper, but it was
gone. This made deep impression
upon the jury, and seemed to stick In
| their minds, to the exclusion of the
story of one of the clerks, who swore
that the package of arsenic had been
missing before Elizabeth went to work
! for the Turner's. 1t was taken for
granted. that arsenic had been used
because an ignorant doctor and more
ignorant druggist said so. In after

Along with other more or less
known diseases of the apple is the
blotch, which winters over in the
form Of a canker which fastens itself
onto the twig or watershoot preferably
the latter, and ripens its spores the
following season, spreading to both
fruit and twlg growth. Its spread is
due chiefly to water. The spores are
spread by rains and heavy dew, as
the worst infected fruits will be found
directly underneath the cankered
limbs or twigs, topmost fruit in many
cases being entirely free from the in
fection. Rainy seasons are the worst
for blotch and there is practically no
blotch-infected fruit in extremely dry
seasons.

The blotch on the fruit first appears
as minute brown speck on the skin,
enlarging rapidly as the season adj
vances; it often covers one-fourth of
the fruits surface by gathering time.

WEED OUT ALL STAR
BOARDERS IN HERD
Success of Dairy Farm Depends
Greatly on Keeping Cows That

Don't be satisfied If the average

of the hlgh-producIng members of the

pends ON wedding out all these star

open, making the fruit subject to the
innumerable rot spores that abound
everywhere. When once under the skin
of the fruit, blotch cannot be cured or
even remedied, therefore it is very ad
visable to catch the disease In ample
time.
Repeated experiments have shown
conclusively that lime-sulphur solution
will not control blOtch, and further
that bordeaux mixture completely con-
trolls the disease AS arsenate of lead
can also be used with the bordeaux
mixture we have the complete mixture

NEW YORK HAS 7ss,7lo VOTERS.
Registration Larger Than Last Year. But
Not as Large as Expected.

New York, Oct l7.--Although the reg.
istration OF 73s,7l0 voters in New York
City exceeded last years record by TO-
800 the predictions of political leaders
were not fulfilled The complete regis
tration figures now available show a gain
of 1924 over the registration for the
last presidential election in 1912 Politi-
clans have prophesied that a total of
10000 to 100000 would be attained One
reason given for the failure to reach
these figures is the return to Europe Of
many men Of foreign birth.
Republican leaders pointed out yester-
day that there was large decrease in
the registration in some OF the strong
Democratic districts of Manhattan, but
the Democratic chieftains asserted that
this was more than compensated by
Democratic gains in Brooklyn, Bronx,
and Queens boroughs. Manhattan was
the only borough to show decline from
the registration of l9lz.

CURRENT COMMENT
Dale's Place in the Sun.

Let's see. There was Republican
convention in the second district two
years ago and three citizens of the dis.
trict were candidates for nomination
Alexander Dunnett of st. Johnsbury,
John w. Gordon of Barre, and Porter IL.
Dale of Island pond AT the time we
wondered why Mr., Dale won the nom
nation and held somewhat of the belief
expressed in the above editorial. Since
then we have found out that there were
other people in the second district be-
sides the circle we knew, and they were
enough to make a majority and favored
Mr. Dale for Congress. Since then we
have found that Mr.. Dale is well known
TO this majority and it was owing to
this he secured the nomination Por-
ter II. Dale is held in high esteem by the
larger number OF people in the second
district. He has Won this by his sterling
character, eloquenee, genial personal
touch and kindly interest in the common
every day people in the district. We
agree with The Times on the fact there
are sections of the district where Mr..
Dale is but little known, but they are
the losers. Mr.. Dale has not been in Con
gress long enough to make any startling
notoriety, that is not the custom OF Yer
monters, but he has been there long
enough TO impress his colleagues OF his
ability or he would never have been Sc
lected to take the important part he is
now doing in the national campaign. The
Barre Daily Times and that section of
the district that now know him least will
hear more from Congressman Dale and
hold him in the respect and esteem that
the majority of the people now do. Isn't
it little unkind for The Times TO say
that Republican voters in the second
district have voted for Dale, in primary
or election, mechanically because they
saw his name under the Republican desig.
nation and because they were averse to
voting for Democrat? Was there any
thing mechanical" about the voting in
the convention that first nominated him
Was there anything mechanical about
the vote he received in the first primary
election where he led the Republican
ticket in much, if not all of his district
Be patient. The Barre Daily Times and
the splendid citizenship of that section
will have an opportunity to look" at
NOhSiessildH odle Deioie tHey dle, UNI
less the summons yonder come sudden,
and we sincerely hope it will not, for we
want those citizens in Barre and vicinity,
who are foremost in the progress and
OF the state, to get "look"
at Congressman Dale and personally |
know him. They viii find he measures
up to the best OF Nermont's sons who !
have represented the state in the ma
tional Congress- Essex County Herald.
