HINTS OF THE FASHIONS

Blouses Of georgette and silk jer'
sey are trimmed with embroidery, and
many of these models have chokel
collars and elbow-length sleeves.
An exquisite hat recently seer had
a crown Of seal fur and q brim OF
metal brocade ribbon.
AS winter advances the vogue OF
stocks and jabots increases, and many
very smart tailored stocks and daintily
frilly jabOts are ready In the shops for
the assured demand.
Accordion-plaited chiffon velvet com
bined with plain velvet is used for
smart round turbans that are abso.
lutely devoid Of trimming.
The ever popular, never out of fash.
ion blue serge dress is with us again
this season. One particularly pleas
ing model is trimmed with embroidery
done in green, tan and a blue q trifle
lighter than the navy Of the dress,
combined with black buttons and black
soutache banding.

The Importance of securing the
greatest possible return from the man.
ure supply Of the country can hardly
be overestimated ut any time. 1t is
infinitely greater when the production
Of food is so vital to the nation as
during the present crisis.
In localities where leaves are OBJ
tainable at small cost as compared tc
the cost of straw, a condition which
exists in some sections, 1t would seem
advisable to make use of this material
for bedding instead Of straw. 1t is a
well-known practice in the wooded sec.
tons Of the South to use leaves for
bedding. Frequently land has been
built up into n high state Of fertility
when this was practically the only
means of supplying humus to the soil.

Lady slippers,

Sometimes they are white, sometimes
yellow or red or pink.

flowers which grow wild in the woods

Isn't that right"
YES" said Daddy.

likes them as well as the garden fiow-

"Well," said Daddy, "yOu both know
what wild flowers are. Now cultivated
flowers are just the opposite OF wild
flowers. They are the flowers which
are cultivated, or trained and looked
after. Cultivated flowers are the ones
in gardens, which have been planted
and cared for.
They haven't grown up on their own

flowers have. They have been helped

call it the Balsam family, have strange

They are of a bright scarlet color
which isn't strange at all. In fact
they're very beautiful. But the strange
thing about them is that they love a

"They don't come out when they are
thrown in the fire, do they?" asked
Nancy, much surprised, and Nick
laughed.

Winter Exercise.

Considering winter egg production
only, exercise is not absolutely essen
tial. Much good winter laying has
been done by focks with very little
exercise, but such flocks do not usually
lay as well the lest Of the year, and
if management is wrong at some other
point they are very apt to have more
than their due proportion Of deaths
toward the end of the winter.

flied sovereignty of the Ukrainian people.

for conquest held by the Polish Regents
Council at Warsaw, and by the Polish
representatives in Vienna in regard to the
