SUNsHADEs IN ODD SHAPES
Some Are Dome Shaped, While Others
Rival the Widespreading Parasois
Of the Japanese.

Accessories are claiming more and
more attention every day. Many Of
the latest sunshades assume curious
shapes.
Those resembling ~lamp-shades Of
the Empire period rival the wide
spreading japanese parasols.
There are others that are dome
shaped, with frllly rufles of lace or
tulle and fringed edges. They are to
be had in every conceivable color.
Characteristic of the summer
months is the rosebud ruche.
This Is the daintiest piece of neck

Made of palest pink tulle, with tiny
rosebuds sewn at intervals through
the center and a black velvet bow with
long ends In front, 1t is a becoming
setting for a pretty face.

LINEN FRocK OF TWO C0LORs
Especially Attractive Model Is Made
Of Pale Rose and a Darker Shade
Of Orchid Pink.

Among the pretty linen frocks
which are being worn now in great
quantities none is prettler than those
of two contrasting or harmonizing col
ors. One model is especially attrac-
tive, made Of a pale rose and a dark
er shade of orchid pink. The jumper
top is of the lighter linen, and the
rather full circular skirt Is Of the
darker shade. Where the two colors
Join Is a broad belt, made so that 1t
lies like a broad upturned cuff around
the hips. The sleeves are of the light,
with cuffs of dark and turnbacks again
Of light.
This combining Of materials is per-
haps the outcome of necessity as well
as design, for anyone who goes much
about the shops will have noticed how
many short lengths of linen there are
for sale. 1t would seem as If the odd
bits of this precious material were be-
Ing gathered from all sources and
made the most Of. II quite frequently
happens also that the price asked for
these remnants is the old pre-war fig
ure. and so they may achieve with
clever handling quite satisfactory and
economical results.

MILLIONS OF EGGS
SPOILED NEEDLESSLY
Storekeepers and Hucksters
Urged Not to Buy. Washed
Eggs for Storage Purposes.

P'rom the United. States Department Of
Agrlculture.)
Approximately 5,0i6.000 dozen eggs
spoil needleSsiy every year In cold
storage simply because SOME one has
let clean eggs getvstet or has washed
dirty eggs before sending them to mar
ket, according. to the specialists of the
United States department of agrlcul-
ture. Careful Investigations of large
quantities Of stored eggs show that
from II to % per cent of washed eggs
become worthless In storage. whereas
only 4 to s per cent of dirty eggs
stored unwashed spoil. The explana-
ton Is simple, Water removes from
the shell Of the egg gelatinous cover
Ing which helps to keep air and germs
out Of the inside Of the egg. Once this
covering Is removed by washing or
rain which gets 70 eggs in the nest,
germs ard mcids find ready access to
the contents tad spoil the eggs.
This enormous loss In storage eggs
largely can be prevented IL producers
and egg handles, especially during
March, April aud May, will refrain
from washing eggs destined for the
storage markets and take pains to re-
duce the number of dirty eggs by pro-
vlding plenty OF clean, sheltered nests
for their hens.
Millions Of eggs spoil In storage be-
cause they have been exposed to dew,
rain, dirt, and SON in stolen nests in
the grass or fence corners.
In view Of this great loss of valuable
food, the department urges. country
storekeepers and huclIsters not TO ac-
cept washed eggs for shipment in case
lots. Shiny eggs, especially in the
early spring. probably have been
washed. All washed eggs purchased
should be sold locally for immediate
consumption.

Hat Made of Ribbon.

Never before, perhaps, were ribbons
so effectively used as they are this
year. There is an interesting array of
them in the shops and there are many
interesting ways of using them. There
is, for instance, the hat and bag set
made of ribbon. A wide ribbon, figured
with an embroidered design In simple
outlines, Is used for the b-im, shirred
enough where 1t Joins the crown to
make 1t lie smooth Mt the outside of the
circumference. Then from the ribbon
cut a circle for the top of the crown
and for the upright part of the crown
use the ribbon straight, folded or cut.
to fit the height required. Such a hat
needs no trimming, although some
times q long silk tassel Is used, at
tached TO the center of the crown,
whence 1t falls gracefully down to the
brim.

TIMELY POINTS FOR
BREEDERS OF SWINE
OF Much Benefit to Get Pigs on
Pasture-SeIf-Feede Helps
Solve Labor Problem.

(By ]. w. WUICHET, Ohio College OF
A%griculture.)
Get the pigs out on pasture as soon
as possible. 1t will benefit both the
pigs and the pasture. provided the
pigs are taken off during wet weather.
A bushel of corn fed on some good
pasture Is worth two fed In n dry lot.
Red clover, alfalfa, rape, soy beans
and bluegrass all make excellent pas
ture for pigs. For efficiency they
rank In the order given. Provide
some shade in the pasture and some
shelter from bad weather. The pigs
will show. their appreciation in In
creased returns.
The use of n self-feeder will help
in the labor problem, but a s~elf-feeder
needs replenishing just the same as
the feed bin. Shell the corn for the
self-feeder and have n separate COM
partnent for tankage. IL the pigs are
pretty small, 1t will be advisable to
provide the middlings lin addition.
With the pigs on some legume pasture,
little tankage or middlings is eces-
sary.
Do not let the pigs wean them
selves. Take the SOW away from the
pigs when they are about ten or
twelve weeks old and give her next
litter a fair start in life. Take the sow
away from the pigs and not the pigs
from the sow. In this way the pigs
will be left in their accustomed lot
and will be less likely TO notice the
change in their living conditions. Keep
the pigs growing, for each day passed
without some gain in weight is Il loss
to the feeder.

Women Demand Comfort.

In the matter of hats II is difficult
for h fashion arblters TO gain any
Roadway with uncomfortable styles.
Sometimes in the spring there is n
positive announcement that brimless
hats viii supersede all others in favor.
And they do until -the time arrives
when the protection of the eyes and
face calls for a brim. Gradually the
brim comes in. at first narrow. and
then wider. Sometimes. as In this sen.
son, there has been no attempt to force
the small ones to the exclusion of the
narrow ones. The idea this year is to
have brims either very wide or very
narrow. But there are perfectly good
looking ones in all the intermediate
width of brlms.
