are quite accustomed, will be used for
evening capes as a relief from velvet

brilliant Egyptian blue so well be-
loved by artists Is shown In evening
wraps of brocade with flowers Of

Three dominating shades of dark
blue are used for street and afternoon
frocks. The house of Doeuillet makes
an especial point of using one or all
of these shades in the ma jority of his
costumes.

New Shade of Red.
There Is shade of red called In
dian, which France is offering as some
! thing unusual and lovely. Lanvin has
a gown in it. The material is georgette
and the combined color is beige. There
! is a slip of the Indian red, and over
this a medieval chemise without
sleeves, accordian plated, and held in
by a loose belt covered with a design
which is familiar to those who are
stopped at every station in the far
West by Indians offering their wares.
There is q division among the en-
broiderers in France. Some cling to
the fioriated designs which have run
through French history like the
French language. Others take up the
primitive Indian designs and use
them boldly and effectively. They
have searched through the documents
of the Indian races of all countries
for their patterns. There is strik-
ing similarity which it would be up
to Prof Henry Fairfield Osborne to ex-
plain, between all Indian designing, an
cient and modern.

Co.ored Collars

The use of richly colored silks, says
the Dry Goods Economist, continues to
be feature of the newest collar
models. All sorts of shapes and de-
signs are obtained by the clever COM
binatlon of different colors or different
patterns or of plain silks with silks in
elaborate designs. Such neckwear finds
its best opportunity for use with the
tailor-made suit or the suit of Il strict
ly outline character.

OATS AND PEA HAY MIXTURE
Rather Hard to Cupe on Account Of

This mixture is rather hard to cure
on account of it's high content of moiS-

died carefully and kept cooked If the
weather is unfavorable. The less it Is
exposed to rain after being cut the
better hay it makes.

USE MORE POULTRY
Would Tend to Conserve Other
Meats of Importance to
the Country.
RETAILERS SHOULD GIVE AID
BroiIinQ Chickens Are Plentiful and
Selling for Five Cents Less Per
Pound Than Last Year-LarQe
Stock in Storage.

(F'rom the United States Department Of
Agriculture)
A present congestion IN the frozen
poultry market, shown by figures of
the United States department of ag-
riculture, can be relieved If the retail
dealers will handle the goods at rea-
sonable advance over wholesale prices.
This action would make poultry avail
able at prices comparing favorably
with other meats according to the find
ings of conference just held here
between wholesale, poultry distribu-
tors and officials of the department of
agriculture. Both parties to the con-
ference say that more poultry should
be eaten when the facts are under
stood by the consumer; and an in
creased use of poultry now, in the
opinion of the department, will tend to
conserve other meats which are OF
more Importance to Americans and
their allies in Europe. The retailers
as well as wholesalers, it is pointed
out, should aid in relieving the con
gestion.

LEG WEAKNESS OF CHICKENS
Trouble Is Brought About by Lack Of
Excrcise-Enlarqe Yard and
Give More Freedom

Leg weakness, commonly found in
broods of chicks, Is brought about by
insufficient exercise. For treatment
enlarge the yards, give the chicks
more freedom and feed less concen-
trated feeds; feed lightly, and induce
exercise by scattering the chick feed
in light litter. Add to each gallon
of drinking water one teaspoonful Of
soda hyposulphite.

Trampino as a Tonic.

Outdoor exercises are stimulating to
various organs. Where sport Is not
available, tramping proves an excel
lent tonic, while the deep breath lends
color to the cheeks and sparkle to the
eye. Sleep and rest are likewise mag
ical beautifiers, they restore lest con-
tour. fade out the wrinkles and revive
the complexion.

time the mole comes into the vicinity.
Before setting the trap it is well to
ascertain the course of the burrow by
thrusting down lead pencil or stick
of about the same size. The trap Sc
lected should then be lined up with
the course as nearly as possible; that
is, the jaws of the scisSor-jaw type
should be astride it, the loops Of the
choker type should encircle it, and the
spikes of the harpoon type should be
directly above it. IF the harpoon type
Is used, it is best to force the i'm
paling spikes into the ground once or
twice to facilitate their penetrating
into the burrow when the trap is later
sprung. This type Of trap Injuries the
pelts of moles, and is not recommend
ed for use when it is desired to pre-
serve the fur.
Repeated levelng of the mole ridges
on the lawn by means of roller not
only tends to discourage the animals
from making further incursions, but
prevents that injury to the grass
roots which otherwise would result,
and restores to the lawn its more
slightly appearance.
Unjustly Blamed.
The mole is blamed for much dam.
age it does not do, the specialist ex
plains, because other small animals
particularly voles or meadow mice
deer mice, and sometimes ordinary
house mice use the convenient run
ways of the mole for maraudng. Mos
of the injury to seed grains, tubers
and roots of cultivated plants is di
rectly chargeable to these intrudin,
rodents, as an examination of thu
toothmarks on the damaged prod
ucts will show.
From an examination of the stomach
contents of 200 moles taken in al
months of the year 1t was found tina

LIGHTER SOILS FOR MILLET
Plants Are Heavy Feeders and Need
Full Supply of Plant Food for
Their Best Growth.

Millet does best on the lighter soils
and those that are well drained, loans
and sandy loans giving the largest
yields. Heavy, poorly drained soils are
entirely unfit for the crop. The plants
are heavy feeders, and need a full sup
ply Of plant food for their best growth.
On poor land, finely rotted stable
manure should be plowed down before
planting.

CULTIVATE EARLY AND OFTEN
Physical Condition and Keep
Out Harmful Weeds.

Constant cultivation should be the
rule. for this will keep the soil in an
ideal physical condition for the roots
to grow in, besides keeping the weeds
in check. Cultivate early and persist

The Oakley herald. [volume] (Oakley, Idaho) 1908-1961, 1917-09-28

In the mash, but with present prices,
beef scrap is one Of the cheapest
feeds, considering It's high protein
content.
These experiments, the specialists
say, prove that wheat is not essential
in an egg-laying ration and that ex-
cellent results can be secured by
using corn and oats as a scratch mix
ture provided this is fed with a good
mash containing 25 per cent beef
scrap.

so. BEND GIRL NEARLY
BROWNS AT EAGLE POINT

Miss Cleo Spicer OF South Bend
had a close call 10 drowning yes
terday afternoon in the St Joseph
river at Eagle Point. She and her
sister, Miss Mabel also OF South
Bend. and William Montine and
Kenneth Spencer of Mishawaka
were bathing when Miss Spicer sud
denly sank beneath the water,
which at that point was but about
three feet deep. The fact that she
was standing and made no noise as
she doubled up and sank, caused
none Of her companions TO believe
at the time that anything unusual
was wrong. When she didn't ap-
pear for a quarter of a minute or
more the young men hurried to the
place where she had disappeared
and found her lying on the bottom
of the river. They removed the I'M
conscious form To the shore. where
several ladies worked over her for
more than a half hour before she
was out of danger She was later
removed TO the Heinderick cottage
and a physician was called to at
tend her.
IL was the opinion Of the doctor
that the young lady had gone into
the water too soon after eating and
was stricken with cramps
Mrs. Spicer, mother of the victim,
was within few hundred feet Of
the accident, but was not informed
of what had happened until her
daughter was out of danger.
