letin.)
Cutworms eat of the young plants
at the. surface Of the ground, and they
do this In the night. In the daytime
they can usually be found buried an
inch deep and only short distance
from the last plant eaten. Plants that
are transplanted can be protected by
wrapping paper around the stem, COW
ering 1t half an inch above and below
the surface of the soil. The cutworms
can be poisoned with the following |:
One-half pound paris green mixed dry
with 20 pounds bran, then acd one gall
Ion water and one quart molasses and
mix thoroughly. The set time to spread
this is In the evening, or late after
noon.

Woman HappIest at Forty.

The happy, joyous age Of woman
kind is not sweet sixteen, neither Is 1t
twenty-five nor thirty, but between
the fortieth and fiftieth milestones OF
life, according to Mrs. Herbert ]. Cur
ney, president of the State Federation
Of Women's clubs, says the Boston
Post.
While many matrons giggled and
some actually laughed outright, Mrs.
Quincy explained the situation as fol-
lows:
"The right age for women Is be-
tween forty and fifty" she said. "A
woman of that age can talk to man,
and IL he Is good man he doesn't
think you are trying to flirt with him"
Mrs. Quincy concluded by adding
that at Is a good thing to be a good,
middle-aged woman"

GUARD ALL ALFALFA LEAVES
Two-Thlrds Of Feeding Value, of Plant
10 in Leaves-Rake Into Wind
rows Before Dry.

Two-thirds of the feeding value Of
the alfalfa plant is In the leaves. If
the leaves are lost In curing only one
third Of the feeding value remains.
This fact is regarded as important by
farmers who advocate that alfalfa hay
be cured SO as to save the leaves This
means that the alfalfa must be raked
into windows before the leaves dry
and fall of. Raking can be done two
hours after cutting, thus saving the
leaves and preserving the green color
and desirable fiayoR.

Satin for the Wedding Gown.
Even IL the brides of this summer
insist upon telling each other often
and rapidly that they intend to be
economical In the purchase OF their
trousseaux, they at least yield to the
temptation to have an extraordinarily
good-Iooking wedding costume for the
outfit.
Even though the weather Is warm,
there are few brides, even In war
time, who care to rellnqulsh the tradl-
tional white satin gown. 1t must be
that each woman-chlld, from the era
die to maturity, has that kind OF
bridal frock fixed In her subconscious-
ness. Throughout all her nursery
days, she dresses her dolls In white
satin to go to the altar; In her school
girl days she giggles and confides to
her Intimate friends the plan for that
sumptuous frock. 1t may be said that
she thinks more of the gown than the
man, for she always sees herself at
the apex of her career as radiant
vision in tulle and satin, slowly ap-
preaching a fower-banked altar.
And now that It is wartime and
weddings are rushed and romances
sometimes end at the altar almost as
soon as they have begun In a corner
OF drawing room, the thought OF the
white satin gown rides triumphant
until It is finally expressed through the
skill Of the dressmaker.

PLAIN GOWNS FOR SUMMERS BRIDES

satin.
No CoIors Are Permitted.
Once upon time, ultra-fashi0nnbls
folk thought that 1t was high time to
adopt some of the primitive methods
concerning wedding gowns. They In
troduced sea green, pale blue and rose
pink into the white draperies. They
borrowed from the peasantry Of other
countries the glittering gold and silver
embroideries. They filched from the
Italian days of Catherine de Medlci
the metallic tissues and soft and brill
liant tinsels, and they borrowed from
Russia the massive laces and deep
toned white and cream velvets.
Not content with this, they had
subtly woven lace gowns. the patterns
of which had been originated for roy
atty. Doucet once made an entire
lace frock dropped over ivory satin, at
the cost Of $1,000, to be worn by a
young girl I'm Washington.
A thousand dollars was paid for
court trains Of subtly woven lace,
which were caught on the shoulders
with diamond ornaments and held out
at their extreme length by tiny pages
In white satin and Louis XIV hats.
The daughter Of great banker paid
$1,000 for wedding gown of old Ital.
ian tissue, woven with crystals and
embroidered In silver threads, with a
deep tunic Of old French lace that had
once belonged to royalty.
These gowns were worn Mt q time
when such prices were considered
monstrous, and that was only few
years ago.
For the last three years, this ex-
travagant idea of wedding finery has
passed out. 1t Is family possible that
the war may have something to do
with this condition, but probably not.
The .actual reason for the disincllna-
ton Of women to use colors Is that
they prefer white for the wedding day.
II Is a tradition that dies hard and
may never die.
The Gown Of This Summer.
No bride of today will consider an
extravagant wedding gown. She may
pay reasonably high price for 1t at
good dressmaker's, but there will be
no lavish display of lace flounces,
metal underskirts. jeweled court
trains or gorgeous girdles.
The Russian influence Is still being
strongly felt In all wedding costumery,
but It is content in expressing itself
through the headdress. Every bride
has looked for something new in the
way of headgear. She has experiment.
ed with all manner of crowns, from
the coronet of countess to copy OF
the royal crowns that are sufficiently
obsolete to be placed at British
museums.

RAMBO-BENSON WEDDING
EVENT OF BRILLIANT INTEREST

Of Statewide social interest was
the marriage of Miss Regina Rambo
and DR.. Warren Edgar Benson, which
took place last Friday evening at the
Methodist Church the Rev. S. R.
Belk, of Athens, officiating. After
wards, a large reception was held at
the home of the brides parents, DR..
and Mrs. S. d. Rambo, and ceremony
and reception were distinguished by
beauty Of detail and were attended
by brilliant company.
The church was artistically and
deliberately decorated in quantities
of graceful Spanish moss, Easter liz
lies and bright morning glories. Down
the center aisle was lovely pergola
effect, hung with ropes of moss and
ivy, around which twined morning
glories of every hue, while down the
two side isles were trellises festooned
in morning glories, moss and punches
of Easter lilies. On either side of
the chancel were arches hung in moss
and morning glories, while around
the chancel candles burned in tall
candelabra. Between. these were
placed white floor baskets filled with
Easter lilies. Inside the chancel were
two more candelabra and in the cen
ter was formed as a back ground a
tall Cathedral effect from which hung
a curtain of moss and ivy. On the
top of this blazed many candles Great
ing wonderful effect.
Mrs. Hodges presided at the organ
and rendered artistically two lovely
selections Nevins Venetian Love
Song, and the Bridal Song"
Miss Burnes, of Atlanta, sang 81
Love You Truly, by Carrie Bond,
and Claimants "At Dawning."
The bridal party entered the
church to the strains of Lohengrin' s
Wedding March and 81 Love You
Truly, was softly played during the
ceremony.
The costumes and boquets of the
brides attendants formed an effec-
tive rainbow color scheme. Each
bridesmaid wore a gown of a differ
en- color and carried shepherd S
crook on which hung baskets filled
with Chas. Russell's roses and ferns.
They also carried lovely ostrich fans
to match their costumes. These fans
were gifts from the bride.
The matron of honor, Mrs. Joseph
NJ Brown, in white georgette crepe
over silver tissue and the maid of
honor, Miss Emma May Rambo, in
apricot taffeta, carried shepherds
crooks of white satin decorated with
