Oregon state fair grounds are rapidly
undergoing change and complete
metamOrphosis will have taken place
when the gates are thrown open upon
the occasion of the 55th annual Oregon
state fair, September $3.50, 1916. Al
ready marked improvement has been
made in the general appearance of the
grounds and long before the fair opens
a vivid contrast will be shown over
any and all previous eXpOsitions.
Contrary to the usual custom Of
waiting until two or three weeks before
the opening of the fair to begin prepa-
Tations and improvements of the
grounds, buildings, etc, the reorganiza-

Iy been completed and Secretary A. H.
Lea had assumed direct management of
affairs until plans were laid and actual
work begun looking to the complete
working over and transformation of
scenes and conditions generally through
out the buildings and grounds. Al
though a great amount of labor will
have been donated by the working pa
tients of the state hospital and the state
prison, alterations and remOdelling of
barns and buildings are being carried
on to such degree that a considerable
amount of money will have been ex-
pended in general Improvements ere the
extensive plans are carried into exeeu-
tiOn.

Under the general direction of Super
intendent R. f. Lee Steiner, of the state

Gotham Fads and Fashions

If you don 7 care for the crazy patch
sport hats and still desire to be a smart
ly hated sport, purchase a broad brim-
med hat and a hank of yarn and then
get busy with your crochet hook.
Just imagine your hat is a wash cloth
and edge it in vivid shade Of green,
cerise, yellow or purple and you viii
have a simply stunning ehapeau.
If you are a versatile crocheter you
can make hectic yarn flower with l.

hooked the most attractive sport hat ot

In the olden days twas a willy snake
Got the best OF Mother Eve;
But the times have changed for that
serpent bold
You may wel indeed believe;
For down at her feet, on her dainty
boots
And up in the air on her hat,
The modern Eve has the best of him
now
And what do you think os ihat|
New York, May 27.-Don't be wor-
ried and sign the pledge hastily il you
SEQ snakes these days. They are be-
ing worn in the best Of families and
every fair eharmer looks like a snake
one since the latest fad Of serpents has
come to light.
Just to turn the tables on the old
| snake for wearing Ewes nerves, her
granddaughter are wearing him on
their feet and heads.
Il surely is going back some to 90
back to the Garden Of Eden for our
fashions. We began by decking our
selves out in apples and now we are up
to the snake. Let's hope we stop at
that and DON'T revive the fig leaf for
the summer months.
At first glance these new high boots
Of grey kid appear to have tops of mot
tied silk, but second glance confirms
your snahy, shaky suspicious.
They are very stunning Of course and
when worn with wide brimmed sail
or hat with q crown OF the same mot.
tied skin the effect is not garish or
bizarre, as you may at first suppose, but
eonservatively rich and original.
Belts and pOeketboOks also are shown
in the snake skin.
The summer girl is very keen for
beauty patches. Indeed, she seldom ap.
pears in baTefaced condition without
tiny black heart, diamond or dot en-
hancing the dimple in her cheek or the
corner Of one eye.
However, beauty patches aren't the
only patches on the 1915 beauty. Al
together, they may wen be said to have
gone to her head, for the very newest
sport hat is q crazy affair made ex-
actly ike your GRANDMOTHER silk

Boston, Cradle Of Pre-
paredness, Has Mon
ster Parade Today

Boston, May 27.-Greater Boston,
whose minute men so annoyed the
paeifists of 1775, and which is the
birthplace of the American doctrine of
get-ready, is holding its preparedness
parade today.
More than $4,000 men and women
viii be in line, parading through the
narrow streets that once echoed the
footballs of the men in homespun who
fell in the Boston Massacre, who fired
from the redoubts of Bunker Hill and
who went to the aid of the farmers at
Lexington and Concord.
Lieutenant Colonel Beaumont B.
Buck, U. S. A., is the chief marshal,
with Major Williams ]. Keivlle of the
fighting Sth, as chief of staff.
Every member of the house of repre-
sentatives and the senate win march
today, as will many high officials of
the Bay State. Members of every pro-
fession in the Hub will be in line, in
cluding hundreds of prominent lawyers,
lead by Samuel j. Elder.
The new Harvard regiment, 100
strong, will be among the marchers be-
fore they break away for the intercol-
legiate meet tthe Stadium.
The Ancient and Honorable 4lrtillery
will be feature of the parade, in their
Colonial uniforms, recalling the days
of the Minute Men.
Another feature of the march will be
the first public appearance of three
newly organized Red Cross base hos
pital units.
Every unit of the State militia will
march, and besides these will be the
society women, who already have
pledged their homes for emergency hos
pitals; suffragists, anti-suffragists,
business men, fishermen, clam-diggers,
society men, at least one son Of Colonel
Roosevelt; actors, sailors, and particu-
larly farmers to recall the "em-
batt'd" days.
Every band for miles around has been
requisitioned, and 300 marchers from
Providence will bring one of their own
Boston today may not have the guam
tity that New York in her parade Nf
the 18th produced, but for quality the
committee in charge of the Citizen Is
Preparedness Parade, admits it can t
be beat.
In the ranks are hundreds of direct
descendants of the first disciples of
preparedness, those unlimited guests of
the Boston Tea Party, and those who
heard Paul Revere 90 clattering by.

How LinOleum Is Made


Do you have any idea
what linoleum is made
Of? De you know how
many far-off countries
contribute to its manu-
facture? Did you ever
realize that cork from
sunny Spain, flax from
Siberia, jute from the
swamps of India and
kauri gum from New
Zealand, are all brought
together in this modern
floor covering?
It is a long story and
columns devoted to it's
telling would not en-

as a few minutes spent

MAKING LIVE STOCK
LIKE SWEET CLOVER
Stake Animals in Pasture and
They Viii Soon Develop Taste,
Says Iowa Expert.

MY stock will not pasture on sweet
clover. They don't seem to like it.
What's the trOubIe?' is the query be-
ing received from many farmers over
the state by the farm crops depart
ment at Iowa state college.
Do not discard such an excellent
pasture as sweet clover because the
animals do not like it at first, as they
are likely not to. They can soon be
made to like it, even better than other
pastures.
Simply allow the animals nothing
but sweet clover for a few days II
the sweet clover patch is not separate
from other pasture, stake the animals
in it After a few days turn them out
where they will have access to other
pasture as well as the clover. Nine
times in ten they viii then eat sweet
clover in preference to any other pas
ture.
Sweet clover is proving to be one Of
the best pasture plants, especially for
sheep and cattle. Besides rarely eaus-
ing bloat, as do red clover and alfalfa,
it is nutritiye, palatable when animals
get used to it, increases the milk flow,
grows rapidly and gives an abundant
pasturage.

When sports clothes made their ap-
pearance up-to-date women came and
saw and were conquered by them.
They are not cIassed among the fads
of a season now but acknowledged as
a new departure that promises to be
come a permanent institution. They
have added a lot Of color and vivacity
to the apparel of women, and have in
tluenced styles in other lines. Al
ready specialists in designing them
have demonstrated that their charac-
ter and style lie in lines and in ma
terials as much as in color.
A separate skirt in a handsome
plaid, shown in the picture, is not
classed among sports skirts, although
it might be. But it reflects the style
of the sports skirt. 1t is made ankle
length with bias edges of the goods
Joined in a seam down the back and
the front. Pipings and parallel rows
of most wOrkmanlike machine stitch
ing places it in the class that is dis
tinguished by fine tailoring-and there
is nothing better.
The saddle-bag pockets. introduced
early in the season, proved an inspira-
ton for several pocket effects which
