Learning New Crop Methods.

There Is today a greater amount of
valuable information about crops and
the very hest ways of caring for them
free for the asking than ever before III
the history of this country. II you have
any problems that puzzled you in your

them out while they're still fresh in

Write to the nearest agricultural ex-
pertinent station for full. free informal
ton on every one of these problems
and YOU will receive enlightenment in
the form of direct advice and reference
to books that will extend your knowl-
edge. It isn't too early now to begin
to solve those problems for next year;
indeed, some of them must be tackled
right away so that spring will find you
ready to begin your work with the full
est possibility of success.
Make one of your first studies the
proper methods of preventing and fight
ing insect pests. In one state the loss
of farm crops from insect pests totalled

the insects in this present need for the
fullest production of food the impera-
tive demand for effective preventives is
clear. Not only for your own profit, but
for the nation you should make it i'm

No longer do we see the iirnono sleeve
as we did previously. In fact, most of
the more original models forsake this
type of sleeve entirely. The set-in
sleeves or sleeves with their fastonings
to the coat definitely emphasized are
more widely used.
This is illustrated in the model Of our
sketch. 1t Is q cloth coat of mahogany
color. one of the newest shades. Rather
wide sleeves characterize this coat, and
they have heavy stitching and row of
buttons along the entire side. Heavy
bands of Hudson seal make a large. up
standing collar and the wide cuffs. This
is espe cially distinctive both on account
of its collar and the color used.
|, Mahogany is one of the new popular
shades Snd is adaptable to most iig-
ures and complexions. 1t hasn't the
sombrc dullness of brown. which isn't
an easy color for every one to<@ear. 1T
partakes more Of the garnet, a color
that is especially becoming to those
with a rather pallid complexion.
The back of this coat falls in a. fiat
line from shoulder to hips. The black
embroidery forms n sort Of square
panel. giving an appearance of breadth
AMI fulness to the lower part OF the
coat, which in reality is made UP with
an economy Of material In this black
embroidery the colors of collar and
cum are repeated, and the color scheme
CT mahogany and black is very digni-
| fled and charming. This coat Is indeed
! suitable for almost any occasion for
| afternoon or may even be worn as AN
evening wrap.
Only the tall figure can carry off this
| type of coaN with grace. although 1t
looks well on the plump as it does on
the more slender figure. There are so
many lines on the coat that 1t breaks
up the figure considerably.
| This, of course. is excellent for the
woman of solid proportions. but this
| type of coat on IL small figure would
give 1t an appearance of overelaoorate
/ and excess adornment. 1t Is distinctive
! ly coat for the tail figure.

I raised startled eyes to his face.


"All about what?' parried.
1.-THE purpose of your coming over to-

His wonderful tenderness seemed TO

shoulders, and raised my eyes to his

told him.
''You mean that you're In need Of
money, child. and you want me to help
you out?''
And then. under his breath. he ut

ears caught distinctly. 1t was q sacred
name, and his manner Of uttering 1t
was q desperate appeal for help!

SUNDAY AND. MONDAY
NOV. 3.4.

Sundays planetary aspects point to .
day of activity in the family and social
circle, and also in romantic interests,
all prospecting under the benignant
Venus in conjunction with Lunar. The
lumiparies also In conjunction bring
dement's from superiors. dignitiee. hon.
crs end esteem. Certain aspects cali for
very circumspect conduct. with cool acts
and speech. 49,
: Those whose birthday 1t is should have
an active and prosperous year. both fn
business. domestic and social affairs. A
child born on this day will be interest
Ing, kind, affectionate and populsr.
Monday IL likely to be a day Of per-
plexity. growing from unusual situa-
lions. but with the discernment to cope
with these It should eventuate in good
fortune. as the fruitful Jupiter assists
over difficulties through his trinc posi-
tion toward the Moon-one OF the most
favorable astral influences. Change,
journeys and removals may well be
summed. and also some cratic condi-
ton concerning contracts and writings.
Much care Is advisable in all dealings.
Those whose birthday II IL may have a
year Of success and increase II they
carefully handle their affairs and avoid
change. A child born on this day will
be kind and generous. but perhaps Diff
hcult to understand, owing to Its origin
n and adventurous mind.
