The shape of the roof is intended to

Bile during the farrowing season, which
usually varies a few weeks in the dir
ferent latitudes. This pitch of roof
is intended for the northern sections
OF the country.
Metal ventilators are provided to
carry off the foul air, which is a nec-
essary precautiOn, because the health
of breeding stock depends greatly upon
the supply Of fresh air.
Improved winter hog houses have
helped to eliminate disease and to put
the hog business on better paying
basis than ever before. The fact is
now recognized that hogs require as
careful handling in winter as other
kinds of live stock. Hogs have been
structed buildings, but ii pays to house
and feed good breeding stock in a
thoroughly scientific manner.
A few breeding sows, say three or
four, may hustle for themselves around
the barnyard and make themselves
fairly comfortable at night by roofing
their way into the haystack, but there
is not much profit to a farmer in keep

RIBBON IN PLACE OF FUR
Decoration Lends Itself Admirably for
Use on Evening Wrap-Sugges-
tion That May Help.

If you can't have fur on your eve
ming wrap, you can have ribbon, and
if you are sufficiently clever you can
probably achieve even more charming
results with the ribbon than with the
fur. Here is a decorative suggestion
that may help.
The wrap to begin with, was of
horizon blue velvet, and the ribbon
was embossed velvet in black and
terra Gotta; also it was quite wide.
The circular cut of the wrap made
long pointed inserts of the ribbon all
the way round the skirt part, tremen-
dOusly effective.
First of all cut your ribbons the
full length of the skirt, then slender
ize the strips into long points. Ar
range the wide part of the ribbon
side by side for a solid hem treat
ment letting the points come waist
high. h collar falling in four deep
points, petal fashion, made also of rib
bon; offers satisfying finish.

caIIot's Mummy Frocks.

The house of Callot also accentu-
ates change in the silhouette from
what we have had from other French
houses. 1t is nothing new under the
name of Callot, for it was advanced
last February and we called it the
mummy silhouette, for want of bet
ter name. The gown is really a bag,
with square sleeves and tight ankles.
1t is in striking contrast to the
straight, chemise tunics of nearly all
the other French houses.
This season it is not so pronounced
in its baglike proportions. 1t takes
on more of the atmosphere of gown
intended for live, and not lay,
figure. 1t pulls upward in drapery
around the knees and ankles, has a
closer line to the figure under the
arms, and depends for its beauty upon
Indian embroidery that spreads itself
in sharp points down the front from
shoulders nearly to knees. This is
usually done in copper tones of silk
floss.
Outside of this peculiar silhouette
which the dressmaker exploits more
than the public adopts, are the draped
Roman and Grecian gowns which are
also in direct contrast to the chemise
tunic.
And here is another decolletage
which is a change from October and
which is seen in black velvet gowns {;
the fabric is cut to the bone of the
neck in back and then downward in a
deep U in front. It is edged with a
three-inch collar of antique ivory lace
which is slightly full, but caught to
' the fabric, so that it may rest fiat and
steady. This extends nearly to the
waistline, and where the lower part
rounds itself out over the figure, there
is g straight tucker of fiat tulle COW
cred with lace. 80
/ This is an eighteenth century decol-
letage and is far more becoming to
any woman than the severity of the
half low, medieval line.
