HEM Of THE SKIRT To Be NARROW

used it as a splendid splash of en-
broidery on a gray satin gown made
for Mary Garden to wear when she
sang the title role of "Griselidis." The
embroidery was done in colored crys-
tails, silk floss and bullion threads and
of the skirt, rising from a ground
work Of crystal embroidery.
When the Indian shawls came into
high fashion last September, as parts
of gowns, they were accepted only
by few conservatives. The intro
duction was dismal failure, although
1t had been attended by high hopes and
much enthusiasm. The people who in
troduced the idea, both dressmakers
and milliners, stood in the forefront
of originality. For instance, Jenny of
the Champs Elysees gave herself
Fundamentally to employing the In
dian shawl in various ways for day
apparel; and yet she who has so few
did not put it over.
Women who owned these shawls
rushed to the shops and dressmakers
with them and were perpleXed be-
cause they could not sell them. The
truth is, the market was overstocked;
genuine cashmere shawls were too
expensive to cut up into an expert
ment, but the shops and dressmak-
ers over here found that they could
import paisley shawls from Great
Britain, giving as little as SIS for some
of them.
SO the idea in itself failed, but its
suggestiveness to fabric makers Is
now bearing fruit. Rodier instantly
put the pear, the palm leaf and the
Persian tree into his new materials
for spring and summer, and, there
fore, we shall wear muslins that show
these designs.
Another forecast for spring is that
we shall be bordered as though we
were a state on the map. Most of
the new materials. have ornate bor-
ders, and when the weaver has left
them off, the dressmaker supplies
them. In these deep edges will lie
most of the artistry of thin gowns,
and even frocks of satin and chiffon
will be framed in with bands of bril-
liant colors, to keep in the picture of
the hour.

MICE RAVAGES IN ORCHARDS
Farmers and Those Interested
in Our Forests.

The ravages of short-tailed field
mice in many parts of the United
States, according to D. e. Lantz, as
sistant biologist of the department of
agriculture, result in serious losses
to farmers, orchardists and those con-
forests, and the problem of controlling
the animals is one of considerable i'm
portance. ShOrt-tailed field mice are
commonly known as meadow mice,
pine mice and moles; locally as bear
mice, buck-tailed mice or black mice.
Over so species and races occur within
the United States and nearly 40 other
forms have been located in North
America.
The runs of meadow mice are main
ly on the surface of the ground under
grass, leaves, weeds, brush, boards,
snow or other sheltering litter. They
are followed out by the animals claws
and worn hard and smooth by being
frequently traversed. The runs lead
to shallow burrows where large nests
Of dead grass furnish winter retreats
for the mice. Summer nests are large
balls of the same material hidden in
the grass and often elevated on small
hummOcks in the meadows and
marshes where the animals abound.
The young are brought forth in either
underground or surface nests.

PLAN TO MOVE LARGE TREES
Best Time for Working Is When
Ground Is Frozen-SimpIe Ar
rangement Is illustrated.

The arrangement illustrated is very
simple, and a big tree may thus be
taken up and replanted. First dig
around the tree, preferably when the
ground is frozen; don't injure the
roots by going too near; take up
large clump of dirt. Place connecting
piece of the standards against the
tree, to which fasten with ropes, wind
ing a cloth around to prevent barking
the tree. One or two horses hitched
to the rope will easily raise the tree
with ball of earth, and swing it onto
the waiting stone-boat, on which you
may haul it to the planting place.
There dig a hole sufficiently big, set
the tree, and fill and ram the earth
securely into place. Then trim the
tree branches a little-to make up for

SUITS OF GREEN AND GOLD
Indications Are That Those CoIors Will
Be the Most Popular Combination
for Sports Garments.

1t seems assured that green and gold
Is to be the dashing sports combination
of the summer, for several silk sports
suits in this combination have been
turned out for Palm Beach and will be
worn by women whose word is law
from fashionable standpoint. A good
looking suit Of this kind is of La Jerz,
a soft, substantial silk of Jersey weave,
without the aggravating stretching and
sagging characteristics which some 9TH
er silks have evinced. La Jerz comes
in plain and figured patterns, and the
sports suit referred to has q skirt of
plain gold color and a rather long
sports coat of gold and green stripes.
The coat Is loosely and comfortably cut,
with low-placed belt and big patch
pockets. Another sports suit of similar
type has coat Of gold-colored La Jerz
and skirt of the same silk in large
plaid pattern, green lines on gold
ground. The collar and long revers are
faced with the plaid silk. Sports hats
for wear with these silk suits are of
Panama In rather small sailor shape,
with mushroom brims; of felt, also
small with the down-turning brim, and
of straw-the crown milan and the
saucer brim, curving upward all round
Of rough straw.

SECURE FRUIT TREES EARLY
Those Intending to Plant Nursery
Stock This Winter Should Get
Orders in at Once.

(By C. w. RAPP. Department of Horti-
culture, Oklahoma A. and NJ. College,
Stillwater)
Those who expect to plant nursery
stock during the present winter should
purchase their trees as soon as pos
sble. BY so doing they are likely to
profit, and they cannot lose.
Every nurseryman prepares for his
custom to the best of his ability, but
he is not always able to gauge his
volume of business correctly, or part
of his stock may be unavOidably poor
and stunted. In either case he does
the best he can for his customers.
Everybody gets the best, but the best
toward the close of the selling season
is frequently far inferior to the best
at the beginning.
For these reasons the prudent buyer
will place his order early. Even If he
does not wish his stock delivered at
once, he will place his order subject
to call, or to delivery on certain date.
In this way he will receive the ad-
vantage of an early order, and the best
trees will be his.

BEGIN FIGHT ON PARASITES
Poor Policy to Wait Until Spring When
Insects Become Numerous-Dust
Birds Thoroughly.

A common practice among poultry
men is to wait in the spring until lice
and other parasites have become so
numerous that they will be noticeable
BY far the better plan is to begin the
fight early aad keep them from getting
a start.
One of the best means of doing this
Is to dust the birds thoroughly with a
good insect powder, at regular inter-
walls, beginning in late winter. There
is no harm in giving the hens an appli-
cation occasionally even in midwinter
since they are never entirely free from
lice, and everyone of these pests killed
before the breeding season may mean
a million or two less to fight next sum-
mer.

FARM
POULTRY
START IN POULTRY BUSINESS
Spring Is Good Time to Begin-Either
Obtain Breeding Pen or File
Order for Eggs.

Spring is a good time to start in
the poultry business. Either obtain
a good breeding pen from someone
who is reliable and who raises the
breed you fancy, or else send for
eggs. You do not have much time
to obtain breeding pens, for mos,
breeders of purebred stock have their
pens mated by this time and without
doubt will have disposed of their sur
plus choice breeding males by adver-
Using them last fall and selling them
to parties wanting good breeders.
The other plan, then, is to send to
these breeders and obtain their price
lists at once. Even if you do not care
to have the eggs for month or so,
send now and obtain the price lists
and get your order booked, for others
are doing the same thing, and most
breeders send out eggs in the order
booked. Delays oftentimes cost much,
due to inability of the shipper to fill
his many orders as promptly as he
may desire.

ROOSTER TO IMPROVE FLOCK
In Selecting Young Fowls Use Best
Judgment-Certain Characterize
tics May Be Noted.

The kind of cockerels used is far
more important than most farmer
poultry raisers believe. The fact that
one bird looks we'll and is healthy and
active is good indication of a good
bird. But this is not enough. The
male bird should be of such good
breeding that he will improve the
flock. If he is not capable of doing
this he is not worthy of his place as
head of the flock.
When you are selecting the male
birds from the young cockerels of your
own flock you should use your best
judgement and find the best indivi-
duals. In this case you must be in

fluenced by the appearance Of the
birds, as for the most part the cock
erels will be about the same in breed
ing unless you have trap-nested and
kept records on the hens.
1t is rather hard to select young
cockerels, as they may often deceive
one when they are quite young. Like
a calf, colt, or pig, there is much
speculation in selecting for breeding
purposes. Nevertheless, there are
certain characteristics that may be
noted. From these careful breeder
will determine the male birds for his
flock.
