LATEST FASHION NOTES
from the FASHION CENTRES

THE Horse Show in New York
has opened its doors and is vastly
entertaining as we'll as brilliant.
The opera will come next and we are
preparing therefor and there are all
sorts of beautiful costumes 20 be seen,
not alone at the Show but also on
the street and displayed for the benefit
Of the many strangers who always are
in town during the week. As is com
monty the case, fur makes really the
most important feature Of the costume
display From time immemorial,
Horse Show week has been the date
set for the opening Of the fur season.
II seldom is really cold enough TO
make. for real comfort. but weather
conditions are f9f too trivial to be
allowed to hamper the world Of
fashion, and fur coats, fur trimming
and the high, enveloping collars Of
fur arc being worn with great eclat
and distinction. For evening wear,
the loose, ample wrap is the accepted
one and it is to be met in every avail
able skin from ermine TO squirrel. For
he street coat, the redingote is a
much liked model and redingotes are
found in such fur as seal and also are
conspicuous made OF velvet combined
with fur. A notable one. for example.
is Of black velvet. richly embroidered
with gold and silver and combined with
breitschwantz. A very superb coat
Of seal shows a "Chin-Chin" collar
and deep cuff Of spotless ernine, and
there are numberless evidences Of
similar combinations. An exceedingly
handsome redingote met early in the
week was Of Hudson seal in Russian
style with wide belt of the fur and
very full, faring skirt. 1t was finished
with exceedingly high "Chin-Chin"
collar and deep cuffs Of skunk. Caracul
lends itself to the redingote idea and
the making of plated and draped
effects with marvellous success. The
shorter coats for the street take a
great many different forms. A notable
one is a jacket Of seal with a loose,
raglan back and high collar that rolls
over 70 reveal a lining Of ermine.
Smaller fur pieces take the form Of
scarfs and Of collars and the scarfs
are worn most interestingly. The
long straight one that we used to
know as "directoire" is to be seen in
a variety Of skins and is worn with one
and wound closely around the throat,
while the other hangs loose from the
left shoulder down nearly to the hem
Of the skirt. A very smart and beau
tiful model is Of white ermine of the
tailless sort, combined with narrow
strips Of seal and was carried with a
round muf to match. The wide scarfs
Of shorter length are many Of them
draped over the shoulders after the
manner of shawls. with the ends

variety Of materials. On the figure,
chinchilla cloth is shown and that
material is much liked this season,
and il is always warm and always
comfortable. The belted coat with
high neck is made of beaver cloth
with velvet collar and cuffs.
THIS is a coat that can be made
either with a hood or. with a
= collar. and the two treatments
result in such entirely different
effects that really there are two
separate coats instead Of one. Fun
damentally. it is just a plain little
garment with shoulder and under
arm seams only, but the sash or
belt is arranged in a quite novel
way. There can be slashes cut on
indicated lines through which one
or the other is passed. and in either
case. the result is a most attractive
one and the coat thoroughly smart
and generally becoming. On the
figure, it is made Of diagonal cloth
in shades of brown and is trimmed
with champagne colored broadcloth.

deep yoke and the upper one ar
ranged over It. Various materials
are pretty made in this way
chiffon taffeta is much liked, crepe

for simple dresses. challis, alba

are charming.
THE simple coat is always the
best one for the small boy.
4 Here, is a model that can be
worn with open neck or be but
toned up about the throat and as
lust a plain coat or as a belted one.
In fact, there are three quite diff
ferent ways Of treating it. On the
figure. it is Just a simple coat with
generous pockets. In one small
view, it is shown with the collar
worn high and with a belt that is
passed all around, In the back
view. the fronts are loose and the
back only is confined by a belt.
All three styles are smart. For the
making Of such coats, there are a

crossed at the front, but the younger
contingent. at least, is apt to place
the closing at the back and to arrange
the scarf straight across the body.
Afternoon costumes show a great
many beautiful materials, but per
haps there is nothing that can be said
at once to be more fashionable or
more elegant than the redingote suits
Of heavy satin. A very beautiful one
is of brown satin with high, choker
collar. deep cuffs and the band at the
lower edge Of the coat Of natural
beaver In cut and in treatment.
however, the costume is simple, for
the coat is simply graceful full one,
belted while the under skirt is plain
and of moderate width. A novel
feature, however, is found in the belt
which is slipped through two small
rings of dark red at each side Of the
front. The entire costume gives a
sense Of quiet elegance that is
very charming but the lining is
lowered silk in rich and even sumpt-
uous colors.
The evening costumes are always
Of interest The latest to have ap-
peared give evidence Of the great
favor for rich, metal brocades They
are Of necessity somewhat simple in
cut and in style, for material Of the
sort is so superb Of itself that it will
not allow Of trimming 10 any extent
and must be used on comparatively
plain surfaces 10 give the best results.
A fascinating gown that makes good
example is Of white silk, richly and
heavily brocaded with silver. The
skirt consists Of a long plain tunic
slightly gathered at sides and back
and finished with a band Of silver lace
sewed to its lower edge. Beneath the
tunic is seen a narrower skirt all Of
silver lace bound with plain satin and
on the edge Of the tunic is a tiny little
bit Of black fur. The bodice is quite
plain at the back and forms three deep
points at the front, two Of which ex-
tend to the shoulders where they are
joined to the back by means Of strips
of rhinestone beads. The center point
is Of half length and Is arranged over
a band of exquisite silver lace. There
are tiny little sleeves Of tulle and there
is just a little drapery Of the tulle
against the skin, above the brocade
and silver lace, that has a delightfully."-
softening effect. The waist line is
finished with a narrow girdle of silver
ribbon and at the left side. hang long
ends Of the same, finished with bands
Of silver lace and edged with fur.
Everything that scintillates, every
thing that sparkles. everything that Is
brilliant is worn for evening occasions

THOS. c. HUDSON
MAKES FORMAL
STATEMENT NOW

Thomas G. Hudson makes his formal
announcement for congress from the
Third district in this mornings issue
OF the Times Recorder. 1t appears in
the announcement columns and pre-.
sents several planks upon which Mr.
Hudson will make the race.
The announcement of Congressman
G. r. Crisp, asking for reelection ap-
peared weeks ago, and with the formal
entrance of Mr. Hudson the race has
formally begun.
Both gentlemen have been candi-
dates for several months and have at
tended to the features of prediction
days. 1t was predicted in these col
umns some time ago that the Third
congressional district race would wind
ua in campaign between Congress-
man Crisp and Mr.. Hudson as every
political indication pointed to a race
between these two gentlemen, instead
of field with a larger number Of car
didates.
Mr.. Hudson stated some time ago
that he would open his campaign in
Americas. 1t is likely that he will
announce the date within short time.
Congressman Crisp stated in his an
nouncement that he would actively
campaign during the summer, and
make speeches in the interest of his
race.
The race gives every promise Of
overshadowing other political battles

PEACH COUNTY IS
IN BIC
LEGAL TANGLE {.
Peach county figured in Americas

Peach county figured in Americas
yesterday.
Judge 2. A. Littlejohn heard a petit
ton for injunction Saturday at cham
bers regarding the disbursement OF
$4,000 appropriated by Macon county
to fight the creation of the county Of
Peach. The new county would take a
large section from the present county
of Macon and large slice of Houston
county, making Fort Valley the county
site.
Following the appropriation of $5,-
900 temporary injunction was grant
ed by Judge Littlejohn last Monday.
The hearing today was interlocutoro
with Warren Grice, former attorney
general, representing two residents of
Macon county, alleging the illegality
of using this money in this way as
appropriated by the coutny commits
sioners.
The county was represented in the
hearing by julie FELTON,, of Oglethorpe,
and after the legal phases and argu-
ment had been made Judge Littlejoh1
stated that he would take the matter
of permanent injunction under adj
visement and possibly render the de-
cision Monday.
The point urged by Mr.. Grice for
the parties bringing the injunction
was that the county commissioners of
Macon county had no legal right to
appropriate this sum of money in the
manner in which they did for. the
purpose of fighting the ceration of
Peach county.
William A. Dodson, Esq, of Ameri-
|cus, has been secured by parties in
Macon county, to assist in the fight on
Peach county before the legislature.
The new county affects Smter, as
stated several days ago in a Times-Re-
corder news story. 1t takes territory
out of the senatorial district by secur
ing slice of Macon county, and by
taking this section also affects the
Southwestern judicial circuit and the
third congressional district.
Peach county is being urged by a
prominent array of people at Fort
Valley, and Emmett Houser, a Fort
Valley lawyer and newspaper man
has been engaged to wage the cam
paign in behalf of the new county

100000 BALE
CROP ESTIMATE
FOR THE YEAR rs

Present conditions indicate a cotton
crop of 14,266,000 equivalent to 500
pound bales this year. The departmer.
OF agriculture forecast this total pro-
duction today in connection with its
report announcing the condition of tho
crop on June % and the preliminary
estimate of this years acreage Last
years crop, tie smallest since 1909,
was 11,191,820 bales, while two years
ago it was 16,134,93O bales, the biggest
crop ever grown. In 1913 it was II
l56,4S6 bales and in 1912 the produc-
ton was 13,7OS,421 bales.
In its preliminary estimate of the
area of cotton in cultivation this year
the department places the figure at
35,994,000 acres. That compares with
80, 107 900 acres, the revised estimate
of acreage in cultivation a year age.
and with 36,S32,00O acres harvested in
1914, the year of record production,
37,089,000 in 1918, the year OF record
average, and 34,2S3,OOO arces in 1912.
The condition of the growing crop
On June rs was S1.1 per cent of a
normal, as compared with IT'S per
cent. on May 25 this year, 500 per cent
on June 25 last year, and S0.2 per cent,
the average condition for the last ten
years on June %.
Since May % report was made, plac-
ing the condition at 77.5 per cent of
normal, the weather has not been en-
tirely favorable for the growing crop.
1t has been too wet to permit of salts
factory cultivation and too cool fo1
proper growth. During the first week
following the May report the weather
was favorable for development and
the crop was reported improving
steadily Boil weevil were reported III
southern Alabama and in parts OF
Mississippi. Rains hindered cultiya-
ton during the second week in the
north and there was considerable
complaint of slow growth, due to cool
nights, in nearly all sections, while
boil weevil were reported numerous
III Alabama and were found in Flor.
ida Some damage from weevil was
reported. Rainy weather and unseas-
enable cold continued during the lat
ter part of the month checking growth
but the plants were reported improv-
ing generally in the central and
southern parts of the belt. The weeyil
was reported in parts of Texas aud
northern Louisiana.
In calculating it's forecast of total
production the Bureau of Crop Esti
mates based the yield on the condition
of the crops on June Is and the pre-
liminary estimate OF the acreage, al"
lowing for abandonment one per cent
from the planted area. The final pro
duction, however, probably will be
larger or smaller than estimated &C
cording as conditions from now until
time of picking are better or worse
than average conditions.
Estimate on Georgia
The estimate of the acreage in Geor-
gia under the dates of the general es-
innate is 5,51600O bales of cotton. The
condition in Georgia is estimated at
so per cent.
Alabamas acreage is estimated at
3.46S,000 bales, and her condition at
10.
