Pioneer Border Citizen Taken

Especial to The IIeraldl


RIO GRANDE CITY, Tev., April
2S.-Judge ]. R. Monroe, former
county Judge of Starr county, and
one of the best known citizens on the
border, died at o'clock this morn
ing.
Judge Monroe's death was unex-
pected. He retired last night in his
usual good health and arose this
morning at his usual hour and had his
breakfast. He was alone for a short
time when other members Of the
household, entering the dining room,
found him dead. Death was due to
an attack of heart disease.
The funeral will be held in Rio
Grande City at o'clock this after
noon, with services under the aus
pices of the Masonic lodge, of which
he was a member.
daughters, j. S. Monroe, Mrs. Min
ME Knox and Mrs. Lily Thaison, all
of Rio Grande City.
The decedent came to Rio Grande
City thirty-seven years ago and en-
gagged in the practice Of law, which
he followed until his death. He was
born in Georgia about seventy-four
years ago, coming to Texas as young
man and settling at Jewett, in Leon
county.
Judge Monroe served Starr county
as its county judge for man years. He
was member of the twenty-fourth
and twenty-fifth legislatures.
NEWS OF DEATH RECEIVED.
News of the death at Rio Grande
City early today of Judge j. r. Mon
roe was a shock to the legal frater-
nifty OF Brownsville, Judge Monroe
was widely known among the lawyers
of the border country, and particular
ly was he well acquainted among the
"old timers of the border country.
He was frequent visitor to Browns
vile, and never missed a session of
the United States court IN IT'S Browns
vile sittings.
Judge Monroe for many years past
has taken an active part in the grav-
ity irrigation movement for the Lower
Rio Grande, and for many years it
was through his efforts that agitation
for it was kept alive. In 1918 he
went to Washington in connection
with the movement, and despite his
advancing years his interest in that
and other progressive movements
never died. He was, in fact, among
the first of the Rio Grande City citi-
zens to inaugurate the movement now
underway fer railroad between the
Valley and San Antonio, and for
many years he worked to secure an
extension of the Gulf Coast Lines to
Rio Grande City, without success,
however, although it seemed at one
time that the government might un-
dertake the project.

String of Beads
and a Costume

Into the limelight of general fash
ions have come the strings of beads
once confined to the Bohemians. The
counters where these things are dis
played look like veritable supply plants
for the harem section, and an unedu-
acted observer would wonder where
they would find their place. But they
are really necessary to certain types
of dress, and the woman who wears
them artistically finds that she has
achieved something.
Beads, it must be understood, can
not be added Unfortunately to any
costume without thought of its de-
sign or trimming, for if they are pro-
miscuously planted they become as
gingerbread. On the other hand, ii
they are thing by themselves thew
can become the making of an entire
costume. Their color must be studied
with relation to the gown and the
DorSOH WulCl thCy ebiS NASoS-
adorn. Their shape and size must be
taken into consideration.
An Example of Discrimination
For instance, there was seen at
smart restaurant at a nearby watering
place the other day a costume OF
black satin worn with a dropping
black hat wreathed in yellow forsythia.
A long string of light amber beads
was worn with this, and that was the
only trimming to be seen. 1t was a
striking combination and real exam
nile of the discretion with which BEADS
should be used in relation to cos
tune.
Beads for belts have also taken a
prominent place, and the same truth
holds good with them-they are only
really good when they become the one
note of adornment of the costume, ana
then there is nothing which can take
their places.

Few Americans know the taste of
thoroughly good table poultry and
mentioned three especially good
breeds that are considered by epicures
as being prime for discriminating
tables.
l have a few more that I consider
worthy of mention that will talk
about now. The first breed that comes
to mind is the Sussex. This breed is
a very old one, although but recently
brought into prominence. 1t has been
called the "Four-Toed Dorking' in its
home country, Sussex in England,
because it resembles the Dorking in
so many ways. This breed can be
had in various colors; white, light red
and speckled, the latter being the most
sought-after in the United States, and
is the only tri-colored fowl generally
known about. These fowls take on
fat easily, not the sort of fat of the
Plymouth Rock, but more full flesh
which is tender and juicy. And. by
the way, this taking on of weight in
meat, is the inherent property of all
good table fowls. The Dorking, the
Houdan, the Faverolle, La Fleche and
the Crevecoeur all have this common
tendency which mark them as being
of especial importance for the table
The Faverolle, French breed, is
said to be the most heavily featherco
fowl of them all, and in England has
made quite record as winter layer
probably owing to immunity to eli

Table poultry require different treat

one.
In growing and feeding poultry for
the table the object is to produce a
large, soft-meated, plump, full fleshed
chicken in the shortest possible time.
All feeding plans must be developed
to secure this end. The easiest and
surest way is to feed plenty of moist
mash and so keep them coming from
the very start until ready to market.
Corn is fattening and should be fed
freely, the finer it is ground the
quicker and more easily it is digested.
Beef scrap is flesh forming and should
be an important ingredient of the
mash. A night feed of whole grain is
essential to keep the crop busy during
the roosting hours. Milk, if possible
to obtain, should be literally fed. But
whatever you do, feed often, feed
plenty and have the feeding stuff pei.

Good market fowls can be grown

tiers, the less exercise they have the
softer their muscles become.

Busters for Warm Days

Women always want them when the

They afford ample protection for
light gowns and suits, yet are light

There are busters of linene, in the

black, blue or gray, and coats of silk

If one wishes cape she may have

scarfs seem especially intended.

Tan is the most fashionable color
at this minute, and these scarfs are

The tan, one must add, is but the

are finished at the ends with two
color block designs.
