No shipments of fruit can be made
from Hawaii to the Pacfic coast or
unloaded there unless they have first
received federal approval The fed
eral horticultural board also maintains
a fruit-fly specialist whose duty it is to
gather available information regarding
this pest either by travel in foreign
lands or by correspondence with spe-

Aid From the Public.
Travellers from foreign lands have
been called upon to help to the ut
most in seeing that they do not be-
come the carriers of insect pests.
Printed matter calling attention to the
serious consequences that may follow

duction of fruit flies from Hawaii is
distributed to all persons entering Pa

Each passenger must sign an affidavit
stating that he has in his baggage no
fruit subject to fruit-f1y attack. In
spectors who search the baggage of in
coming travellers for fruits carrying
fruit flies or their maggots find infest-
ed fruit every month. Any one of
these instances if not dealt with
promptly and properly might mean the

WEAR GINGHAMs DURING WAR
Paris Takes to the Material Which Is
Popular With Many in
America.

Now we may know that this Is war
time. If we have not had it brought
home to us before, we are realizing it
now. For France has taken to ging-
ham-bravely to gingham for the dura-
ton of the war, notes fashion critic.
We wore ginghams last summer and
wear them this summer. It doesn't so
much matter what we wear. But
Paris in gingham is a different mat
ter-and we bring out our last sum-
mer frocks with new kind Of feeling
and look them over to see what can be
done to make them just little more
Frenchy and complete.
In the first place bits Of darker
color-black, or a deeper shade Of the
same, help a great deal. Big hats go
with them, sometimes made of ging-
ham, too, and durable sort Of para
sol is not amiss to finish the effect.
A pretty suit is made of checked blue
and white, with a white lawn gilet,
and plain blue taffeta ribbon tie, and
white seam cording. 1t is cut higher
In front than in back, showing the
gilet plainly, and the white belt. The
way the tie crosses and comes down
through a slit on either side, hanging
well below the waist, is new and pleas
ing. The skirt is full, but somewhat
held in at the hem. The white sean

fuls of sugar, the juice of two lemons,
few slices of diced pineapple, and
tablespoonful or two of marischino
cherries. Mix and chill, serving very
cold.
Spced Cheese Pudding.-Cut two
slices of bread into cubes and place

cupful of cottage cheese to which
fourth of a teaspoonful of soda has
been added. Add three-fourths of a
cupful of raisins, one-half teaspoonful
each of allspice and cinnamon and one
fourth teaspoonful each of mace and
cloves; then fold the whites, pour the
mixture over the cubes of bread and
bake like q custard in a moderate
oven. A meringue may be put on top
If desired.
Lemon Tapioca JelIy-Soak q cup
full Of tapioca in four cupfuls of cold
water overnight. Cook with the addi-
ton of one-fourth of a teaspoonful Of
salt in a double boiler until clear.

MoDIsH IDEAS

Organdie or batiste folds are in gen.
eral use for trimming purposes on
cotton and silk dresses.
Hats of gingham are mentioned for
the little girls. They are usually Of
the mushroom or poke shapes.
Filet lace trimming and hand en-
broidery are prominent on sheer white
voile and organdie summer dresses.
For dressy wear the newest black
satin slipper has a narrow collar all
the way round, Of cut jet and no
buckle.
Perhaps the most modish coat collar
is the one which is rather wide, softly
draped and merging into long revers
or an elongated vest front.
Black velvet handbags are to be
used this summer with the lingerie
dresses. These new bags also come in
very dark brown and blue, with ivo-
rine frames.
There are many sleeve innovations
some revivals of old fashions that are
quaint and pretty, while others are
new ideas smartly carried out in new
materials.

ALL WHITE GOWNS
Sheer 0rgandies, SWisseS and
Linens Are Used.
Among the New Materials ArIette,
With Texture Between Geor-
gette and Crepe de Chine,
Is Favored.

Looking at it from fashion point Of
view, one realizes that after all there
is really nothing more becoming than
white, and summer is to see decided
prominence given to the all-white cos
tune, says correspondent. There is
a smart morning costume of simple
tailored blouse and skirt, usually Of
linen or one of the new cotton ma
terlals; then for afternoon one
changes to q more elaborate hand
made frilly blouse of batiste, with
just bit of fine lace, and completes
the ensemble by a skirt of silk or
satin; and for the summer evening
frock nothing is lovelier or more sat
isfactory than white net or point
d'esprit.
The charm of summer frocks lies
not so much in anything startlingly new
or conspicuous, but rather in exquisite
daintiness. Sheer organdies, summery
looking swisses and delicate nets and
georgettes are all fashioned into the
most adorable gowns, and as they are
usually put together with the finest of
handwork, the result is always distinc-
tive. Among the new materials none
Is more beautiful than Arlette crepe.
The texture is just between georgette
crepe and crepe de chine, and there
is a cross weave that gives character
without in any way detracting from its
f1lmy, delicate look. The range of col
ors is very wide, and it may be fash
ioned into the simplest of morning
frocks or the most elaborate of evening
creations. In dark shades it is ad-
mirably adapted for street wear as it
is so delightfully."- cool.
Foulard and georgette offer unlimit-
| ed possibilities for combining different
materials in interesting ways, and they
are so summery and cool-looking even
in dark colors that they make ideal
frocks for warm days.
What could be more attractive for
summer wear than the shirtwaist
frocks of crepe de chine or georgette
tucks and beautiful collars and cuffs
to give an air of immaculate freshness
so essential at all times?
A very pretty model is Of liberty
blue georgette; 1t has bands of blue
and white foulard put on in a very
effective way. The collar and waist
coat are of white organdie, beautifully
embroidered and an odd touch is given
by the bow and ends of lighter blue
ribbon. Completing the costume is 6
hat, very chic and quite unusual. 1t is
made of dark blue taffeta and for trim
ming has a plated frill Of white ba
tiste.

Pockets have gone the downward
road prognosticated for them some
time ago. They still appear on frocks
of muslin, silk or satin and in coats

for that very reason they are more efa

DAILY ATTENTION TO HANDS
CuticIe Around the Nails Can Be Eas-
lily Trained If Proper Care
Is Given.

By giving your hands daily attention
1t should not be necessary to cut the
skin around the nails. Some persons
have the cuticle cut regularly whether
it's needed or not. This causes the
skin to grow rapidly. Also it has the
tendency to become thick and callOus.
However, if the following sugges-
tions are carried out, the cuticle will
be kept neat and in healthy condition ::
Dip the tips of the fingers in a small
saucer of heated olive oil, allowing
them to soak for about ten minutes.
The heated olive oil is absorbed
through the pores, and very effectively
softens the cuticle. This attention
should at first be given nightly.
After a few minutes withdraw the
fingers and dry them, leaving a little
of the oil around the cuticle which is
already softened.
Then with an orange wood manicure
stick release the clinging skin by work
Ing the stick around the cuticle and

gently pushing it back. Of course, II
any ragged edges are produced by this
operation they should be carefully
clipped with the manicure scissors.
Some cuticles are very sensitive,
while others are quite healthy and re-
quire little attention beyond the daily
treatment of pushing them back with
the orange wood stick.
Sensitive cuticle should be fed.
Whenever the hands are washed lit
tie dab Of cold cream may be applied
and allowed to remain for a few min
utes. This can be rubbed off with a
towel, always pushing the cuticle back.
1t doesn't require much time to keep
the cuticle in good shape. If little
attention is uaid to the cuticle daily it
should look entirely presentable with
out the ugly, ragged edges which COM
pletely destroy the appearance Of an
otherwise pretty hand and nail.

A smart basque frock is made of
gray madras orr rechambray, with white
linen collar, cuffs and gilet effect. This
is tight around the waist, coming well
down in front, trinity. White under
sleeves come down under the sleeves,
which are full and flaring at the bot
tom. The neck is one of the quite
high, round ones-like the Elton school
boys. A little black tie finishes 1t,
and tiny buttons come all the way
down the front of the basque.
A dress Of yellow gingham with
plaid gingham knife plating is excel
lent. The blouse falls full over belt
which shows only in the front and I'M
der the belt slip the ends of the col
lar, which form a deep fichu. This is
coatlike in effect, with deep turnup
at the bottom Of the blouse. The plaid

CaulifIower can be grown almost as
easily as cabbage.
1t takes a good farmer to make good
hay year after year.
Plant the black-eyed pea in the corn
when it is laid by and it will do about
as well as when planted alone.
This year of all years it behooves
every one of us farmers to utilize ev-
cry available bit of feed for man or an
imal.
AS soon as corn is above ground
the cultivator should be started.
Good drainage is the best cure for
soils containing excess deposits of al
kali salts.
Beans should never be touched while
wet with dew. Be sure the plants are
dry before venturing to cultivate.
The general tendency among those
unfamiliar with the method of making
clover hay seems to be to let it become
too ripe before cutting

Sweet clover makes better feed if

Spring green manure crops should

The potash was obtained from such
wastes as tobacco stems, cottonseed
hulls, hardwood ashes, wool washings,
