MARCH LANDS SOME
STRONG PLAYERS.
Brattlcboro to Put Good Team Against
Springfield Men at Island Park
Tomorrow Afternoon.

Unavoidable circumstances have made
1t necessary for Hal March to obtain
some out-of- town players to complete
the lineup for the game tomorrow at
Island park against the Moore Drop
Forge team of Springfield, composed al
most entirely of former Twin State
players.
Goodell of Wilmington, who catches
for the Wilmington team and is one of
the classiest backstops seen in Brat
tleboro in some time, will catch for
the local team, as the local backstops
are unable to play. There will be a
shift in the infield because of the fact
that Thomas Guiheen, who was expected
to play second, left last night for
Chicopee, Mass, to take position.
March has at least two more men from
out of town who viii be here to take
any places made vacant and thev will
be men who have played on fast minor
league teams and are in condition.
Onslow Thompson is slated to do the
twirling, which means, with Goodell for
baekstop, that the visitors will have
hard time getting very far around
the bases.
There is likely to be a big turnout
Tor the game, and upon the attendance
will depend the continuance of games
Tuesday afternoons. While the expense
OF putting local team in the field has
risen unexpectedly because of the in
ability Of several of the local men TO
play, March saws that he will not con
slder the extra expense entailed in OBJ
tanning satisfactory out of-town pIay-
ers, but will reckon the finances on
what would have been the basis had
all local men composed the team.
The game will be called at , o'clock

For moderately abundant supply
Of natural hair the couture pictured

rather loosely for it, and pompadoured
AN the hair is combed in together and
brought to the crown, where 1t is tied
loosely. With the comb it is pulled
into position about the face and pinned
with small wire hairpins.
The ends at the crown are turned

is then spread and pulled forward un-
til it merges into the pompadour,
where 1t is held in place with pins,
making long soft puff at the top OF

A little silk goes long way when
:. is ruffled four times about full
skirt of crepe o. chiffon. The COM
bination is a faYorite which achieves
new triumphs in this elegant after
noon frock. 1t has several small Pc
culiarities that give 1t flavor entire
ly out of the ordinary. One of them
is evident in the bodice. which looks
like a coatee of silk with drop Shout
ders, and another appears in the full
ness of the corded ruffies and the way
in which they are set ON in two groups.
Between these groups, hardly discern
ible in the picture, theirs is an added
decoration. Bow-knot motifs of mar
row black lace insertion are set to
the underside Of the chiffon, since
fashion refuses to countenance a lack
of ornament whore there is space to

The coatee, or bodice, has a "
shaped neck and fastens to one side
In double-breasted effect. Its peplum
is mere plated frill at the sides and
back headed by narrow belt of the
silk which does not extend across the
front. There are -four small prettily
decorated buttons of glass at the
front. The sleeves of chiffon are long
full puffs that reach below the elbow
and they are set into wide flaring

noticed that they are shaped to bag
over the elbow and thai the cuff is
cut to correspond with this shape.
The narrow rufiles are made to
stand out from the skirt by the cord
ing at their hens. and they are iulled
over cord also. The frock is simple
but original, showing an ingenious
handling of the modes II presents
many advantages to the woman who
may wish to remodel dress made of
thin material as wolfe, organdie or
marquisette. The small coatee of taf-
feta and the taffs.a ruffles will go well
with these and with heavier materials,
or the finer lace founcings may be
used for the skirt.
Ruches of taffv.a frayed out at the
edges are used on many new models
" gowns and coats and on negligees.
In light-colored changeable taffeta
the effect is very pretty when the
edges are frayed and the box-plaited
ruching made very full.
Other silk will serve for coatee and
ruffles in making frock like the one
pictured. The corded edges will give
the right set to the ruffles, even in a
| soft silk or satin. in case one wishes
to use a material of this kind already
on hand. But If new material is to be
bought 1t might as well be taffeta; its
] crispness is an advantage.

The rurpentlne Workers.

In the Carolinas, whence most OF
the turpentine is derived, tracts of tur-
pentine land are called orchards I"
Early in the year, before the Juice" of
the pine is ready to exude, the trees
are boxed" The boxes are not, as
the term would seem to signify, ap-
pendages attached to the outside Of
the tree, but are cuplike cavities cut
into the trunks about foot from the
ground. They measure from ten to
fourteen inches across, and are four
inches in width and seven In depth.
Each of them is presumed to hold q
quart. Usually there are two and
sometimes even three or four such
boxes to each tree. The life of the
pine, as of other trees, is drawn from
the soil through the bark; hence it is
necessary always to leave an uncut
strip Of the bark between the boxes.
The number Of the boxes depends,
therefore. upon the size of the tree and
the width of the intervening strips.

On the larger farms it is very nee.
essary to have room for the horses
that are needed in the work during
certain seasons of the year, such as
during seeding time In the spring and
also during the fall blowing. Farmers
that use during these seasons as many
as IL horses say that good barn for
them is the best kind of economy. It
keeps the horses in fine condition and
makes it easy to regulate their feed
and take care of them so that they
can work ten hours day II necessary.
BY building a special barn 1t is pos
sible to provide the various convent
ences. such as feeding devices. manure

To protect the ends of the studding

one of the best ways Of constructing
frame barn structures. Holes are pro-
vided In the sides Of the sockets so
that they can be nailed to the upright
timbers. Post sockets are also pro-
vided for the double row of posts that
run through the center of the barn.
The construction of the feed room
shows very careful attention to details.
The sliding door that shuts this room
off from the rest of the stable is
placed on an inclined track so that it
is self-closing. This prevents the
horses from getting into the grain and
eliminates the possibility OF someone
forgetting to close the door.
Above the stable is NOV that can
be used for the storing of hay and
straw. The roof is of the self-support.
ing gambrel type so that large unob.
structed space is left In this upper part
of the barn. A dressed and matched
flooring is placed under this so that
no dust or chaff will fall down into the
stable.
A vertical sliding hay door is pro-
vided which does not take up any valu-
able room and cannot be torn of it's
hinges by the wind. Sliding doors
are a great convenience for this pur-
pose and are rapidly taking the place
of both the inside and outside hinged
door,
A circular concrete water tank
shown in front of the barn in the IL
lustraticn is great convenience. The
inside is made with slight taper
toward the top so that there will be no
danger of ice bursting the tank. The
circular tank also leaves no projec-
lions on which the animals can hurt
themselves.

The stable should be large enough
to hold the horses that are needed dur
ing the busy season. The one shown
here has stalls enough for II horses
and also has four stalls that can be
used for valuable animals or for any
reason desired. Outside Dutch doors
are provided in the box stalls in addi-
ton to an inside door and windows.
Dutch doors are great convenience
during nice weather. They enable
horses or cows to get plenty of fresh

the enforcement of the new pure milk
