NEW YORK, November There is
no doubt of the fact that the French
designers have sent us this year a
great many of those frocks in which
"one may look like a lady" The era
of exaggeration. of the bizarre in dress
of distortion of line and clashing of
raw color on raw color, is definitely
PASTOR the nonce. An era of gor-
geousness. at least in evening gowns,
has taken its place, but the gorgeous
ness is that of the regality of an i'm
perial court, and not that of grand
opera, or some gigantic stage spectacle.
1t is a restrained. dignified sort of
magnificence, not the reckless. lavish
abandon to the sense-stimulation of
color and the lure of eccentric form
which followed the introduction of the
fantasies of Eakst to the occidental
world.
Most of the new clothes are works
of art in the sense in which the lay
man always understands that phrase.
that gigantic labor has been expended
upon them. No Interpretation of a
trade catch word causes the artist
himself so much unavailing irritation
as this one. In vain he quotes Whist
ler's dictum that work of art" is
only art when it bears no appearance

majority will continue passionately to
admire the painting of buttons which
look as if they could be picked up. and
the elaboration of detail to the nth
power of niggling righteousness.
Still though elaboration of detail
may be out of place in a painting, few
of those who love beautiful things will
deny the appeal of exquisite needle
work. And it is in this field that the

have yielded much valuable informa- tion. The studies have shown that there are in the Grand Valley two broods of larvae and a partial third brood each year. A band trap has been devised for use around the trunk and branches of apple trees which permits the larvae to enter and pu- pate but prevents the exit of the moths.
 Investigation shows that the com mon service tree is very largely re- sponsible for the distribution of the round-head apple-tree borer in the eastern part of the United States. The destruction of such trees near orchards should reduce the damage from bo- rers.
 Other Investigations show that what is called "stigmonose injury to apples is connected with the punctures of the fruit by aphtds, particularly the rosy aphis. Spraying resulted in a con- siderable diminution of this injury.
 Experiments in the use of poison ous gases against the woolly apple aphis indicate that carbon bisulphid may with good results be applied to the roots by injection or in water poured around the roots. Experi- ments in the control of the woouy aphis on the roots of nursery apple stock by the use of poisonous gases in- dicate that while the use of carbon bisulphid is impracticable under nur- sery conditions, ra-dichlorobenzene offers promise against this pest.
 Field experiments in the control of the grape-berry both in the Lake Erie Valley indicate that the most effective control found was the application of arsenate of lead at the rate of lbs. of the paste to 50 gallons of water, inn mediately after falling of the grape blossoms and again two weeks later. Hand-picking of the infested fruit and the covering of the fallen infest- ed foliage by fall blowing seem to be valuable adjuncts to spraying. Some of the work upon this insect was done in cooperation with the Ohio State Agricultural Experiment, Station.
