WORLDS WHEAT CROP

Rome, Dec. 25.-The Internation-
al Institute of Agriculture's harvest
estimates continue to indicate poor
world crops. 1t is now able for the
first time, through new reports just
received, to forecast the wheat pro-
duction of Argentina. The Argentine
wheat crop is estimated at 10000
600 bushels, one-half that of last
year.
Australia wheat crop is estimated
at 1876, 100000 bushels, which is four
per cent better than the yearly av-
erage.
For the worlds IS most import
ant countries, including the United
States, Canada, British India, Japan
and all Europe, the estimated total
wheat crop is placed by the institute
at 2,500,0O0,000 bushels, which is 25
per cent less than last year.

The gradual lengthening of skirts
that has come with the vogue for
straighter lines is noticeable in many
dresses, but women, on the whole
have not taken readily to the longer
skirts, and the short skirt for street
costumes is still favored by a great
many. A long street skirt is really
not willing to sacrifice becoming
styles so readily.
In afternoon and evening dresses,
however, the longer skirt is not at all
ungraceful. Some afternoon and eve
ming dresses show slight variations
from the straight lines. The Turk
ish trouser effect and draped skirt
come from Paris as a departure from
the extremely straight hanging and
clinging effects.
Full overskirts are also much used
for evening, fashioned of soft silk
yoiles, tulles and laces. Black and
white combinations occur very often
in evening gowns. Black net worked
up with white beads over a white
satin foundation is one of the strik~
ing combinations used by an expert
French designer A sash of black
satin forms wide girdle, which is
weighted at the ends by heavy black
aud white hoad taccolc
Bead Embroidery Very Prominent
Bead embroidery is strong rival
just now of the darned-stitch en-
brodery worked in silk and worsted
On white backgrounds, white and col
order beads are used most effectively.
The white chalk beads on dark satins
and silks form very handsome trim
mings. Beads of various colors ar
anged in designs to initiate the popu-
lar Paisley effect is one of the new
est developments in bead work.
Other very attractive color combina-
tons are also seen, such as dull blue,
old rose and brown on light tan back
grounds.
Recent costumes from Paris also
show that achine stitching is very
prominent form of trimming. Rows
upon rows of stitching are used at
the edges of coats and on collar and
cuffs. The stitching is often done in
silk of a darker shade than the ma
terial it is Used on. and sometim es in
the same shade.

schools, and 100000 acres for char
liable, penal and reformatory insti-
tutiOns and such educational institu-
lions as might be deemed necessary
for the instruction of the blind, the
deaf and dumb, and mentally detect
I've pupils. 1t is not conceivable that
any one of the educational institu-
tons for which specific grants had
already been made should have any
part OF this 100000 acres.
But not content with it's own lib
eral endowment, the University saw
an opportunity to grab a portion of
the land grant set aside for the UNI
fortunates of the state, and by play
ing politics induced the legislature to
stretch the meaning of the word ed
uCational' and donate to ii one-half
of the 200, 000-acre grant. The state
supreme court upheld the legality of
this act, but it has never been passed
upon by the supreme court of the
United States.
An institution which has not hest
tated to play politics to enable it to
rob the blind, the deaf and dumb
and the mentally defective children
of half of their patrimony is not in
position to charge any other insti-
tuition with selfishness.

THE ARGENTINE CROP

Washington, Dec. 2S.-Argen-

one of the poorest the country has
ever seen, due to injury by drought
and locusts. Consular reports re-

wheat available for export this year
will total not more than one million
tons. Normally two and one-half
million tons are exported.

The county army selective board

Of the county board. said Friday that
the regulations stipulate that before

from the board to which he is sub

only when the board could fill its
quotas without the men leaving as
volunteers.

The county board. added Mr.. Esca-

OF men called for in the first quot
