North Yakima, Wash: Fruitgrow-
ers report the heaviest shedding of
fruit in many years and estimates Of
the probable crop are being revised
by shippers. Instead Of the $4,000
carloads predicted month ago, some
think the total will not exceed 49,
600 carloads. The cherry crop will
scarcely exceed 100 carloads, in place
of the 300 anticipated at blossoming
time, and the pear crop, estimated at
1000 cars, will be reduced at least
one-fourth. In some apple orchards
not more than half a crop has stuck
to the trees, Winesaps having shed
especially heavy. About $500 car
loads is now accepted as the probable
apple crop, instead Of 10000 report
ed early in May.

Oregon's total war registration is
62,9S5. These figures were released
by the war census bureau recently
and they indicate that Oregon regis
tered within a comparatively small
of the estimated 10 per cent
of the population. The ratio is based
on the federal census OF 1910 and
not on the population estimates by
the war department, which ran far
in excess of the actual population Of
not only Oregon but of the entire
United States.

trict law.

cloth. Manager E. Kroppe has prom
ised the government to turn out
5000 yards of the material every
month until the contract is finished.
He says that the government agents
with whom he contracted desired to
place orders so that the mill would
operate to its full capacity on this
cloth alone, but as there are large
orders ahead for other cloth and the
steady customers Of the mill must be
accommodated, he was unable to han
die any larger order than was taken.

How to Help Flat Feet

From "Preventing and Curing Flat Foot"
 by John Joseph Mutt, M D., in Physi-
 cal Culture.
 It will be seen that we try to bring the
 outer border of the foot into more use in
 weieht-bearing than the inner border. Therefore, it will be of advantage in en- Geavoring to overcome the condition Of flat foot to have the soles so construct ed as to help in this shifting of the su-
 perincumbent weight The heels may be raised by adding a quarter of an inch wedge of sole leather so placed that the base of the wedge will be at the inner side and the edge of the wedge at the outer side. This will make the heel 8 quarter of an. inch higher on the inner side than on the outer side. wedge is also placed under the sole so as to gaise that along the inner border but this wedge should be a trifle less than the one on the heel. Usually it is sufficient to raise the inner border of the shoe one- quarter of an inch, but in pronounced cases one-half an inch may be needed. It is advisable in cases of weak feet that the foot never be called upon even for an instant to bear weight except on the outer border Opportunity is thus given for the shortening of the fragments which have become stretched To ac- complish this the foot should at no time be placed upon the ground without hay ing the tilting heel and sole beneath 1t Not even half a dozen steps. as from the bed to the bathroom, should be taken without slippers or shoes which have been wedged. When these precautions are not taken the heels should not be allowed to bear any weight even for a second; standing and walking must be done on the toes

the opera, a dinner or 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
 These bodices are usually of jeweled
 net and they glitter like that famous corslet once worn by i. great beauty Of
 France, who, in the hour of her highest
 social and financial triumph In tho
 primrose path. put together all the jew
 els that men had given her and covered the supper part of her figure with them.
 These crystal bodices are not especially
 expensive, and there are many thou
 sand dollars worth of difference be-
 tween them and the corslet of Merode.
 but they give much the same effect These corslets, by the way, are not all ways attached to one skirt. They are mounted on fitted lining. and a satin. velvet or brocaded skirt can be placed below them.
 For the house and for all manner of usage under coat, there Is another kind of separate blouse which is at last, a serious rival to the white shirtwaist. There is nothing new in it. It has been worn for centuries by the peas- ants of every country. It was adopted | in America by minority of women over year ago. but 1t Is now offered as the most pleasing contrast to q skirt { that las nothing in common with 1t as
 far us texture and color so.

Our Busy War Department

c. w. Gilbert, in Leslie's.
 To be equal to the business which an $, ,o00, o0o000 budget involves, the war de- ed. It will have to be still more ex- banded. Special buildings for it's ac- commodation will have to be erected on the vacant lots of Washington. Let me give few figures showing what has happened: Clerks are working in three shifts in many bureaus. Some of these bureaus are badly divided, physically, part in one building and part in others, often well removed from each other. Be- fore the war began the adjutant gen. erals office received daily 5000 letters; now it handles 100000 The surgeon gen. eral before the war began occupied quarters with 5000 feet of floor space; now he has. or wants, 100000 feet of floor space Before the war began the war department had a telephone ex- are 20 operators. The telegraph opera tors were originally in one corner of a room with telephone operators, now they occupy two rooms by themselves. And this process of physical growth has only just begun. Our armies at this writing are only just about to take the field. When this article is printed a million and a quarter men will be in training, occupying the cities of cantonments which have maryelously sprung up in the wilderness for their accommodation
 in response to the commands of the man with the $S,000, ,6Oo00O budget. When Gll those men are under arms and when they are followed by the next draft of 100000 men, what we have now in the way of war department will have doubled or trebled.

Bead trimming is widely used on many trocks and blouses of georgette crepe Une especially lovely afternoon ifrocl is
 made of gray georgette. with deep overskirt edged with an inch wide band |of blue bead embroidery. The round- necked bodice and the long, loose sleeves
 are likewise edged with the same band ing
 Flaring ornaments made of feathers of iridescent coloring are used on some of the new velvet hats. Flame color is coming in for much at tention this season. especially for eve ming wraps and gowns. It is a lovely color, especially in velvet or in net or georgette.
 Deep hems of fur are used on frocks of thin material.
 Young girls frocks of serge or some other heavy fabric are shown with pique collars On frocks for women the white collar has been to large extent replaced by a collar of colored linen or else georgette or chiffon. Dull blue is much used for collars for navy blue frocks.
 Umbrellas of colored silks are gaining more and more popularity as the days become longer and darker. Blue, green, red and purple are the colors most often seen.
 Festoons of lace are arranged ruffle like on some of the new silk petticoats Much millinery Is shown in brown vel vet. Whether the dye situation or the swinging pendulum of fashionable taste is responsible for this popularity nobody knows. At all events, brown is one of the best colors of the winter. Leather belts are widely used in tailor made suits and frocks. Although Sam Browne belts are ta- booed in some sections as far as soldiers apparel goes, they are increasingly pop ular for women. They are sold mex l pensvely and give the much desired | military aspect to the young girls street | costume.

 Pajamas are made in many colors. Uusually they are in the lighter shades, but lavender. pink and rose violet, green, mustard color and blue are all used for these sleeping garments. Very often two coors are combined. Gray underwear seems to be an accomplished

It may be argued that separate shirt waists provide the excuse for wearing
 a separate skirt, but the majority of
 women have learned that the peasant
 blouse is a more graceful garment than
 wash blouse that ends at the waist
 line and breaks the figure at the very
 point where it should be smoothed over
 and flattened.
 The host of women who have worked
 in the arts and crafts department of dress, and those who have catered to
 the artistic clement offered these sep arate blouses with persuasive words, but
 it was only when the shops took them up that the public accepted them as a lead ing fashion.
 It is quite easy to see how they sim
 plify dressing. They are made of soft, colorful fabrics, the lining may be added or dispensed with, they manage to blend with any kind of separate skirt that the wardrobe affords, and they permit woman to remove her coat at lunch con in the afternoon, which was a. per- mission not given by the separate white shirtwaist.
 The universality of the topcoat and the decreasing popularity of the tailored suit are other factors that promote the growth and development of this blouse of the hour, which, after all, is re- turn to primitive things.
 The revival of special weave of jer- 1 sey silk and it's acceptances by fastid- 1 ious women, gives one chance to have these separate blouses in a fabric that I is most agreeable in such garments. The
 high-class weave of new jersey has a
 brocaded surface, and it is used for one ] piece frock trimmed with fur. However, when the purse affords it, it makes a Remarkably good looking peasant blouse
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-12-02

suitable for a black velvet skirt, both of which are hidden by topcoat until such time as their appearance is needed.
 Panne vefvent has also been widely taken up for these separate blouses when they are to be worn for formal house affairs.
 Although the tailors are continuing to make mannish coat suits that are built from the same fabric, the dressmakers are offering separate coats to be worn with plain or plaid skirts and they frankly say that one jacket will do for
