FRESH EGGS DURING WINTER
Demand Far Exceeds Supply and
Prices Rule Exceedingly High
Give Hens Summer Feed.

The demand for strictly fresh eggs
during the late fall and winter months
far exceeds the supply, prices rule
very high during that period and the

aging them that will produce a good
egg yield at this time of the year is

Boystrous and GIrIstrous.

Mary's mother objected to her asso-

be contented in playing with Tommy,
her small brother
She once said to Mary, Il don't like
you to play with that little girl, she is
too bOisterOus.
Mary replied, you won't let me
play with her because she is too boy
strous and I won't play with Tommy
because he is a sissy-he is too girl

Whenever heavy main dish is served
light dessert should follow, and when
light dinner, hearty dessert.
Heavy salads fit into light luncheons
and may often form the main dish,
while a fruit salad makes a most ac-

then cook slowly until soft enough to
rub through a sieve. Return the sift-

salt and pepper and add a little

FUR EVERYWHERE
ON WOMEN'S WEAR

New YOrk.-Two important facts
stand out in the fashions for winter.
The extraordinary display of peltry is
one, and the juxtapostion of different
materials is the other.
The first fashion spells extrava-
gance; the second stands for economy,
1t is the latter in which the great ma
jority of women should be more inter
ested, but with that delightful incOn-
sistency which makes the race charm.
ing, they pay more attention to the ex.

ings? Some Of them are shaped like
the lace mitts worn in the Civil war,
with a slash at one side for the thumb;
others are made very much on the pat
tern of the knitted wristlet desired by
the Red Cross.
This fashion has not spread over the
continent quickly, and it is, therefore,
offered to all women who want to do
the unusual in dress. Bits of fur may
easily be used for these wristlets, the
lining may be quite gorgeous, and if
one affects color, this wristlet of fur
may be rolled back at its top edge and
made to show the color beneath as 1t
flares away from the sleeve of the
bodice or jacket over which It is worn.
AS a fashion, these peltry wristlets
are good looking, and as means of
protection against cold weather they
are entirely admirable. They are by
no means confined to the smart classes,
but have been taken up by all the mass
Of women who go out early in the
morning to their various activities
either as professionals or as volun-
teers. They are not substitutes for
muffs, but in connection with large
neckpiece or fur cape they provide
enough warmth to coat suit against
low temperature.
The Blouse Of the Hour.
The second fact of Importance in
fashion which was stated in the begin
ming of this story is the furtherance of
economical ideas in dress by joining to-
gether whatever materials one likes to
accomplish a suit or a frock.
In this one respect, fashion has
turned sOmersault over the interven-
ing decades between a fashion that
was and fashion that is. Those who
were shrewd enough to fOretell scar
city of wOrsted materials in the world
warned US that q season would soon
break in which the uniform line Of
color and fabric from chin to ankle
must be abandoned. That hour has
approached more rapidly than even the
prophets foretold. At the moment, we
are not aware that there is any eXas-
perating need Of such economy, but
preparedness is the best way to face
an approaching truth.
Therefore, the world of dressmakers
has given women to understand that
it is no longer necessary to have a coat
that matches a skirt or a blouse that
matches either, no matter for what oc-
Casion the costume is intended Even
for the most ceremonial hours, such as
the opera, a dinner or a dance, there
are black and cOlOred velvet skirts with
bOdices that are as remote from the
skirt as though they had been bodily
lifted from another costume.
The Peasant Blouse.
For the house, and for all manner Of
usage under a coat there is another
kind of separate blouse which Is, at
last, q serious rival to the white shirt
waist
There is nothing new in 1t. 1t has
been worn for centuries by the peas
ants of every country. 1t was adopted
in America by minority of women
over year ago, but it is now offered
as the most pleasing contrast to q
skirt that has nothing in common with
it as far as texture and color go.
The host of women who have worked
in the arts and crafts department of
dress, and those who have catered to
the artistic element, offered these sep,

KIDDING SOILS OF GAPEWORM
Winter-Freezing Weather
Kills Insects.

Winter blowing is an effective meth
cd of Kidding soils of the gapeworm.
This worm causes the so-called
"gapes" In little chicks, and can only
result from contaminated soil. Win
ter blowing throws the worms to, or
near the surface, where freezing
weather quickly ends their existence.

travagant fashion and allow it to alb
sOrb the better part of their thoughts
on dress.
The last savage instinct to exist in
a woman is her desire for pieces of
fur to adorn her person. There was
once time when peltry belonged to
winter and was needed for protection,
and this excuse was used by every
woman who could fitch money from the
housekeeping allowance to buy bit of
fur to go about her neck; but this
fiimsy excuse has faded into the back
ground since 1t has been the fashion
to be as prolific with fur in hot weather
as in cold weather
PeIting Women With Peltry.
The appearance of group of wom-
en- on the street on q cool morning
suggests that some dynamic force has
been pelting them with pieces of fur
in hit or miss fashion.
There is no plan of action running
through the scheme of dressing.
Wherever a piece Of fur has hit
frock, there 1t remains. 1t may be on
the head, the waist, the ankles or the
back.
There are swinging panels at the
sides of skirts which are edged with
fur; there are immense collars with
wide, separate wristlets of fur used on
blouses and coats; there are jackets
which have fur peplums or fur panel
down the back; there are other coats
that display waistcoats of peltry and,
possibly, patch pockets which CORE
spOnd with the hem on the skirt.
The milliners have made hats of fur
in patchwork fashion. A turban of
yellow will have brown spots on 1t +;
tlaring brim of sealskin will be at
tached to crown of ermine which has
medallion of seal on top; beehive
hat of black velvet will have bands
made from three kinds of fur running
around the base of the crown to end in
a lovers knot at the side.
Few women want to buy top coat
or a short, ripping jacket of fur which
IS not built up in successive tiers of
opposing peltries. For instance, short
cape coat of sealskin has collar and
cuffs Of ermine edged with black
brOadtails and there are huge buttons
of seal surrounded by broadtall and set
in gunmetal rims.
Where there is so much fur floating
about, it is quite natural that the odds
and ends of it should be utilized as
long as fashion permits women to put
st on their clothes without apparent de-
sign.
Lovers knots, which have come into
fashion again, are made Of fur, for in
stance, and are attached to the cuffs
TO the front of the collar and some
times used as a substitute for buttons
down the front Of velvet bodice or
n loose Russian blouse that Is belted in
with peltry.
WrlstIets Of Fur.

Soft, lustrous black satin is decided

Is introduced as relief and white net
