weaving cloths tor military uni
forms, the same type of cloth in a
Iooser weave is being made for the
civilian population. Naturally, the
colors differ; and brown, navy blue,
and mixtures seem to predominant.
No doubt those will Influence the
kind @of fabrics used here, since we
have long looked to England for ma
tcrials suitable for tailored suits
The gaioty of plaids and checks,
which have endeared themselves to
US in the singhams so popular this
summer, is to be seen among silks
and in modified degree among wool
materials for early fall dresses and
separate skirts Plaid skirts pleatcd
are very fashionable for sports and
general utility wear.
The combining of materials is fash
ionable as well as very practical. |
recently saw very pretty and styl-
ish frock, suitable for the late sum
mcr or early fall, Of sand-colored tus-
sab silk and polka-dotted blue fou-
lard. The waist Of this dress was
made extremely plain and semi-fit-
ted with a straight tunic, opened up
each side to the waistline. over a
skirt Of polka-dotted foulard. The
waist had Il collar of the dotted silk.
and tussah silk buttons with Il mar
row blue rim were used down the
front and down one side of each slit
in the tunic, while on the other side
were buttonholes bound with blue
silk.
The illustration shows a dress de-
signed for small women, in more fall
like materials, which is developed in
a similar way, The materials used
are blue serge and blue satin. The
front and back panels together with
the smartly draped pockets are of
serge, and tho rest of the dress is
of satin.
Other combinations suitable for
street and afternoon frocks are
broadcloth and satin, and jersey cloth
and tafieta or rajah. A fashionable
color combination, imported from
Paris is gray and black
The second illustration shows an
evening dress of brocaded taffcta
combined with Gcorgette crepe. The
entire dress is in this instance made
OF the taffeta except for straight
piece of Georgette attached to an up
per tunic Of taffeta which reaches
across the front and sides only. The
Georgette softly ycils the taffeta be-
meath.
Gay plaids and figured silks are
often yelled with Georgette crepe in
an alluring and fascinating manner.
Sometimes the undordress is of plain
material deliberately beaded or en-
broidered and then Swallowed by the
overdress Of sheer Georgette.
Although wool embroidery con-
tinues to be very fashionable, che
nile is taking its place 1t is much
richer anu more suitable for hand
some silk CT wool fabrics.
Already hats of straw are being
oanished and hats OF velvet, satin,
and Yelours are taking their place.

NORTHWEST FARMERS
CLAIM DISCRIMINATION
Continued from first page)

That there is little chance for the
Pacific Coast securing recognition at
the hands of the price-fixine commits
sion is indicated by Associated Press
reports of the situation at Washing
ton from which we quote:
mo encouragement at all is given
by the food administration TO the
wheat growers of the Pacific North
west in the effort of those growers
to have specific base markets for
wheat established at the Seattle and
Portland terminals. mediately on
receipt of protests from the state on
the bases established, Senator Jones
wrote to Food Administrator Hoover
urging that conditions in the Pacific
Northwest be remedied Today he
received n reply. written from the
headquarters of the food administra-
tions grain corporation at ~ Broad
way, New York city. signed by julius
II. Barnes, as follows
Fear Congestion on Coast
Referring to your letter of Sep
TENDER to Mr., Hoover and forward
ed to me here In the first announce
ment we did not name a specific base
for Pacific Coast wheat. One reason
for this was that very point covered
in the letter Of your correspondent
from Spokane. that we lacked ship
ping facilities at the Pacific Coast for
proper handling, but we are trying
to work this out Last year and prob
ably this year the current of Pacific
Coast wheat will move largely by rail
across the country to the east and
gulf. Under these circumstances,
naturally the basis for the west
would be Chicago or the gulf basis,
less the rate to reach them.
4 quite cmprehenod that if ship
ping were free on the Coast and with
rates which would compete with the
transatlantic rates. that the Pacific
coast could have an established rate
of its own, but there Is no reason at
present for attracting a stock of
wheat at the Coast which could not
be moved because of lack of facili-
ties. Keeping this in view We have
tried to leave the field of private en-
terprise in the Pacific Northwest as
wide as possible
Herbert c. Hoover, food admins
traitor, while having no hand in fix
ing the prices and naturally being in
disposed to go over the head OF the
newly organized grain corporation,
expresses to Pacific Northwesterners
full sympathy with them and hopes
that they will obtain relief, In fact
he has SO assured Senator McNary of
Oregon

able for landing is Governors island.
With the thousands Of aeroplanes that
will be flying in this country within a
few years the problem Of providing
landing spaces will become rapidly
more urgent. IN fact, the postofice de-
partment is now, in conjunction with
the Aero Club Of America, planning to
select appropriate fields for landing in
or near every important center.
In France most Of the aerOplanes,
from a standing start, 60 only some 100
or $50 yards before leaving the ground
and then shoot up into the air at a sur
prisingly sharp angle. They land cas-
lily in thirty acre field. There are any
number Of places in New York and in
most Of our other cities and towns
which would make ideal landing
places If they were leveled of and
trees, bushes, wires and other obstruc-
tons removed.
One of the most important problems
for the city In time Of peace is the
moving Of crowds Of people quickly
from one place to- another. Its impOr-
lance is increased tenfold I'm time Of
war. In France we saw everywhere
narts Of great network Of national
military roads. They often 60 straight
up and down, over hills and valleys, ~
did our old turnpikes, but always with
the grades cut down to the minimum
and with ample width and excellent sur
face. The roadways are never too 1aR-
row for two great motor trucks to pass
each other at high speed, far different
from our niggardly custom.
Although these national roads go
through the towns and cities. even In
the larger cities they continue to be-
long to the national government and
are paid for and maintained by it.. They
are the backbone Of efficiency In the
handling Of people and goods about the
country. Without them France would
have had the greatest difficulty in meet
ing the situation with which she. has
been confronted.

fields for training maneuvers and stOr-
age require acres Of continuous open
space almost level in character and
well drained.
Around most cities such space is diff
fcult to find, and it is only by plan
ming we'll ahead that adequate reserva-
tons can be made.
The remarkable increase in the COM
mon use of aeroplane and dirigible bal
looms in Europe today makes it OBJ
vious that their use for commercial
and pleasure purposes after the war Is
going to be perhaps as rapid in its
growth as was that Of the automobile.

mooRiAno ELEVATOR BURNED.
Farmers Company Loses Plant and
Grain Valued at $4,000.

Mco-ia33, May q. Eighteen nun
dred bushels Of small grain and the
elevator at this place, owned by the
Farmers Elevator Company. were de-
stroyed In a fire that started around
midnight The blaze was under con
troll five hours later but at the present
time the small grain Is still shoulder
ing The loss can not be estimated at
the present time. but it is thought tina.
II will reach at least $4,000. The loss
of the grain will be keenly felt owing
TO the shortage of food that exists in
the country at the present time. The
origin Of the fire Is mystery.
The Chicago Great Western night
operator happened to look out OF his
window at midnight. towards the e!e-
vator. He saw flames spreading from
all parts Of the building and gave the
alarm. Handicapped by lack OF hre
lighting facilities, a bucket brigade was
resorted to, without much impression
upon the blaze. AS result the entire
building was ruined and the scale
house and office which stands near the
elevator was also destroyed.
In the elevator were 800 bushels OF
corn and the same nutnb-r OF bushels
Of oats. This Is practically a total
loss, as the only use TO which the re-
naming grain can be put to Is as feed
for hogs.
