PU REBRED DAIRY
STOCK INCREASED.
Stock Valued at $4,000 Placed in
State Since January.

High grade dairy stock valued at
over $4,000 has been placed in the
state of Washington, since January
1920, as result of the purebred live
stock campaign" says Karl b. Mus
ser, dairy extension specialist of the
State College. "People are realizing
as never before the value of good
stock and are endeavoring to pur-
chase the best obtainable.
Stevens county leads in amount
paid for purebred dairy cows. Thru
cooperative buying % head of pure
bred Red Polls were purchased from
South Dakota for S6,250. The dairy
men of Okanogan county come second
having bought AZ head of high grade
Jerseys, 80 of which were purebredS
for $4,000. They also secured two
sires, paying $3.50 for one and $500
for the other.
"With the high cost of feed, high
COWS are the only money
makers, and it takes good qualit =,
stock, headed by a purebred sire to
get cows that pay. Realizing tn :
fact f6 farmers near Loomis, Okla
hogan county, have formed a bull as
sociation in order TO secure the best
service. These same farmers also
agreed to keep daily milk records
from their herds so as to weed out
any boarders. The prospects for
better stock in the state are very
bright"

MILL GIRLS MARRY YOUNG
Many Villages in the South Whera

village without an old maid
sounds somewhat like fairy tale, but
several such places exist down below
the Mason, and Dixon line.
"All the women get married In the
mill villages of South Carolina, and
at an early age" says Y. W. G. A.
Industrial secretary stationed at Green
Vile, where she works among the girls
in 13 mills.
Perhaps economic independence has
something TO do with II, as marriage
Is not looked upon by the girls as

ton. The wives do not give up their
Jobs but keep right on working.
That the textile industry in South
Carolina absOrbs a large number Of
women as well as men workers is not
surprising considering the fact that
there are as many as 10 mills In 20
counties. With the population of the
stute estimated at 1,500,015 people, g.
904 are mill workers. and 190268 ara

Fur Mantle In
Form of Cape

Judging by the fur wraps prepared
far this winter, the good, old-fash-
ioned fur coat has passed into the dis
card. To be really smart. observes a
Paris fashion correspondent, our fur
mantle must be In the form Of cape
or closely resemble a dress OF, II a
cont at all, decidedly of the wrappy
type. The fitted sleeve Is seldom seen
in the Inter. When there Is sleeve
II Is cut as part Of the garment, some
what on the raglan style.
Some of the very newest fur gnr-
ments for 1020-21 nre being made in
what is known in Paris as the robe
manteau style; that is, the coat is AZ
most in the form Of dress. The
leading furriers have taken this tip, as
It were, from the big dressmakers of
Paris, who are having remarkable guc-
cess with these coat dresses.
From fur to organdie is far cry, but
In fashion vagaries the whole gamut
Is often sounded, and so the robe man.
teau Is found In organdie and In price
less fur. The last word In summer
frocks, worn at the Trouville-Deau-
Vile races, was the robe manteau In
organdle, and the first fur novelty
wrnp for winter is in the robe man
teau style.
A charming wrap of this character
is developed In molesRins as thin and
fine as satin, with trimming bands Of

Another fur coat, in the form Of a

which show horizontal, bias and chew

Development In Fur.
One of the most interesting develop
ments In fashions is seen In the fur
coat Of the present day. A few years
ago designers would not have thought
Of draping furs in the same way that
they would chiffon. Very many OF the
new fur wraps of the mantle type
show almost priceless pelts arranged
In the form Of draped capes. Follow
Ing the great popularity OF silk and
serge mantles during the early iu-
