The better-sires movement is aimed

five classes of live stock in which al!
the animals-both male and female

Spot DREADED BY SAILORS
Goodwin Sands, of English Coast,
May Well Be Called Graveyard
of the Ocean.

Goodwin sands on the English coast,
that have a dread record running
back to the tenth century, If not fur
Their, had a traditional and historic
interest, long before the unstable
sands became the terror OF naviga-
ton and the bane of lighthouse build
ers. They have defied to this day
every effort to establish light. The
place was once terra frma, an island
with the soft-sounding name Lomea,
the property Of Ear Godwine-hnce
Goodwin. BY it's position at the en-
trance Of Dover strait the islet was
subject to furious attacks by the sea,
and money was regularly set aside TO
keep up the fight. But tradition has 1t
that the fund was diverted from this
purpose to the erection OF church at
neighboring Tenderden and, during
subsequent terrible storms, the Island
of Lomea was overwhelmed and Its
emplacement transformed into the
most deadly dangerous spot on the
Kentish coast. 1t was there that dur
ing a terrific hurricane in November,
1903. no less than 13 war vessels went
down in one of the greatest marine dis
asters of all time.

designers who spend their time think
ing up formal dress for fair women.
Unlimited color ranges are at their
disposal and many materials of fine
texture and fascinating luster.
The creator of the handsome after
noon frock shown at the left of the
picture above has chosen satin, yelled
with chiffon, for a lovely effort and
has taken embroidered bands and rib
bon as aids in making an ideal dress
for dinner or any other formal wear.
If you will imagine it in sapphire blue,
In certain brown shades or in black,
you will appreciate its elegance. As
for its outlines they could not be more
simple, but they are graceful and it is
in the decoration that the designer
has manifested his art and much indi-
vidua,ity. The bands of embroidered
net are revival and are set in the
chiffon, allowing. the luster of satin
to reveal itself from underneath.

GRAIN FOR HOGS ON PASTURE
Full Feed Is Not Economical Where
Grass Is PlentifuI-Some Protein
Feed Favored.

Hogs on pasture require grain for
greatest profit in pork productic-, but
a full feed is not economical when pas
ture is plentiful and grain high-priced.
When corn alone is led limited ra-
ton is considerably cheaper because
the forage crop takes the place of
much of the grain.
Some protein feed, such as tankage
or skim milk, is recommended to be
fed in small quantity along with corn
and pasture to pigs weighing less than
100 pounds. Pork production is usual
ly too expensive when such feeds are
given to large hogs, especially if they
are on such pasture as alfalfa, clover,
rape or soy beans, all of which are
high in protein.

MUST STRIVE FOR IDEALS
Highest Type of Citizen Is He Who Is
Always Able to See Better
Things Ahead.

No citizen will ever come fully into
his own until ne strives to reach a
high ideal. The boy who is satisfied
to pamper himself in the hope OF
reaching the top by magic is doomed
to failure. The exceptional happens
sometimes. Usually the man who rises
is the fellow who dares work and wait
and strive against odds. He must not
be satisfied with attainment, however
complimentary it may be. There are
always better things ahead if he Is
willing to strive for them. He will
rise as he adds intelligence to vision,
sympathy to character and selfmas-
terry to both. Then he will crown the
ideals with faith in God and its re-
sultant faith in his fellow men. He
will believe in himself enough to
dare the limit and try dozen times
to redeem former failures. He is a
citizen who looks upon failures as OPP
portunities and makes them stepping
stones to power. The biggest bust
ness in the world today is the max
ing Of citizens. And the nation with
the best citizens will rule the world.

G IDE plaits, knife plaits, box plaits
~ and, occasionally, accordion plaits
reiterate an appreciation of plaits in
separate skirts that is going to carry
over into the fall season. For already
manufacturers are making capital OF
this vogue for plaitings and using it
to enable them to introduce new fea-
lures in skirt models. Whether the
fabric be plain or striped or plaid,
sheer of heavy. it brings grist to the
mill of the skirt designer.
In striped materials where a light
and dark stripe alternate, the light
stripe is turned under either the side
or box plaits and often these plaits
are stitched down to the swell of the
hipline and pressed very thoroughly
below it. A skirt of this kind, when
hanging straight, appears in the dark
color, but moving about glimpses the
lighter color in very interesting way.
