Satin is the new love of designers of afternoon gowns just now. They are not running after strange gods or sparing much attention to anything else. Few of the new fall models em- ploy two kinds of silk, but there are many beautiful combinations of satin and wool. The tunic is here and makes plenty of opportunity for the introduc- ton Of two fabrics in one dress.
 The gown shown above is less simple than the average In the new displays of afternoon models for fall. Its color is an unusual purplish brown, dark and rich. It makes a wonderful con- bination with deep blue, and this color in soutache braid is used for decorat- ing 1t.
 Like seafty all the new dresses 1t sticks rather close to the straight-line idea; the high waistllne is means to this end. The skirt Is plaited on to yoke with plaits at each side of a front panel and a tunic begins where the plaits end. It's fullness is also

Sure of joyous welcome wherever the trained eyes of fashionable wom- en fall upon them; that is the happy future of these beautiful hats. The test of the successful hat is simple it must flatter it's wearer-she must look better with 1t on than without it.
 The three hats pictured go even farther, for each has a decided char acter of it's own to lend to the head 1t covers. At the left, wide, grace full picture hat will provoke 6 sigh of longing in the heart of every girl. Its brim droops little, making fine .hadow for the eyes and the narrow fall of geSrgette crepe about the brtm edge Is a trick of the milliner's that enhances every beauty-whether of eyes or complexion.

They were very impressive to look at. but when the farmer bought he usually found that it made the most durable impression upon the ground. It was better staer than a politician.

It Is full of spirit, and chooses for trim ming one of those interesting painted paddle quills. Of course 1t must be worn at a daring angle which assures it success with the younger set who aspire to looking a bit reckless and sophisticated.
 The third hat is just q smart velvet shape for the street, trimmed with flat feather band and small fan of plaited ribbon. It is something of tricorn and has all the vlvacity and trimness of that undying favorite. It is a good hat for all-round wear. and should be considered by those who want hat that will rob them of few years.

Afternoon Gowns Appear Wider.

The afternoon models are generally somewhat wider in appearance. This effect is obtained by the use of fiounces, panels and tunics over nar- row foundations. Large girdles are often employed forming draped ef- fects.
 The materials in these afternoon gowns are veloutine spangles with tar nished metal, satin, yoile. mousseline and velvet In shades of beige, sand. ochre yellow and gray, often combined with black.

Test Before Dyeino.

If all goods were pure there would be fewer dye troubles. Satin Is often nothing but cotton with silk face. silk Is sometimes doctered to such a degree that there is little of the pure material In it, mercerized cotton masuuerades as linen. and cotton Is given the appearance of wool. Home dyers should know how to test mate rials in order to know the special kind of dye for the fabric. Always fray few threads each way of your goods and apply match. Cotton flames up and burns like bit of punk without odor; wool just singes. does not flame and the odor from it Is that peculiar to animal fibers: silk burns less freely than cotton. A piece of silk weighted heavily with chemicals if set on Are will have all the silk burnt of. and the piece of material will be left in Its original shape. and rhis kind of so-called silk xaits conc from the dyepet limp 0s.

A favorite trick of one make of California tractor is to turn completely around on ordinary railroad flat When one con- elders the width of these the feat is re- markable one. If all else fails the machine get q job in circus contortionist.
 One of the odd uses to which tractors put is that of clearing land for cultivation. On the virgin fields of Canada the ranchers found the new land to be thickly covered with tough brush and young trees, forming a dense mat, to clear which by hand seemed a formidable task A tractor owner rgged up sort of summer snow pow' made of two sharp blades at the bottom and a number of steel rods placed horizontally a F-shaped frame that to height of four five feet. By fastening this contrvance to the front of his tractor, and by bucking the forest growth as he would snowdrift. the brush was cut of close to the ground and thrown to side and burned. Later the same tractor went over the ground with gangplow and cut out all the roots and turned up the soil for planting.
 The tractor the farm has to stay, and the up-te-date farmer will find it hard to get along without one wife and much easier to get along with.
