@VERY season in millinery opens

this rule. But in another way these
first models are a great exception to
general rule; for they are almost all
colored hats-not black ones. Usually
black hats have prevailed in the early
fall showings; tables Of untrimmed
hats showed black turbans and toques
galore and IL you really wanted col
cred hat you had TO search and search
and then very likely buy It in the
expensive class Of millinery.
But this season colored models are
everywhere and usually the hats are
OF velvet in rich. dark shades. Brown
is especially popular-and deep blue.
But there are copper colored hats and
green hats. taupe. gray and orange
hats-even garnet hats. Color is TO
be feature Of autumn millinery and
rather than merely in its trimming.
Hat and trimming. now. must blend
IN one harmonious whole. Too strong
an effect of contrast in hat and trim
ming is not smart.

trimmed with COG. But the latter Is
one of the favored styles of Paris for
early fall. 1t is made Of burgundy

this small. stiff shape with It's brim

STUDY OF POULTRY
At STATE COLLEGE
Colored Students Spend Profitable
Week, Visiting Large
Plants.

At the State College for Colored Stu
dents, in the department Of vocational
agriculture, the students have spent q
very profitable week in the study of
poultry through praoticums and field
trips.
With the cooperation of Samuel G
Conwell, n ncighboring poultryman, the
boys spent two afternoons preparing fowls
for the local market by the sticking
and dry picking method Harold
Fontaine proved the most efficient in the
afternoon class. while the honors in the
morning class were divided between Har-
old Waters and Wardie Rogers. All Of the
work was highly commended by Mr.. Con-
well. and also the local merchant 10 whom
the birds were consigned.
After arrangements had been made
with the owners. the two elasses visi ed
several progressive poultry plants near
Dover. Among those visited were tho
farm of MIR Riley on the Bay road, with
White Leghorn flock; the farm of G. A.
Schmid on the State road with a Buff Leg
horn flock the farm of Jefferson Cooper on
the State road with a Rhode Island Red
flock, and the farm of Jesse Williams on
the State road with Barred Plymouth
Rock flock. At each farm the owner ex-
hIbited his entire plant TO the boys and
answered all questions they desired to ask
about the breeds, houses, yards, feeds and
markets. From these field trips, many
points not found IN books were learned
and principles already learned were en-
phaslzed by seeing them IN actual Use.

ORIGIN OF TOMBSTONE"
Arizona Town Was Named Through An
Army Officers Joke.

The several recent newspaper and
magazine stories going the rounds of the
origin of the name of Tombstone, Ariz.
which appellation was adopted from the
famous mine which made the discoverer
Ed Schieffiin, a Gold Hill boy, mill
honaire, give varied versions.
According TO Judge c. B. Watson of
Gold HILL lifelong friend and adviser
of the prospector, the naming of this
rich mine came about In the following
manner.
Ii was in the late seventies when Ger
onimo, the famous Indian chIeftaIn, was
giving United States soldiers merry
chase In the Southwest that Schiefflin
found some very promising prospects In
the Tombstone district, but on account
Of the Indian warfare and shortage of
supplies in this isolated country, he cover
ed his new find and retired to Nevada.
The next spring. with only his mounts
and pack outfit, and for the purpose of
getting a grubstake, he engaged himself
as guide TO detachment of United States
cavalry, which was seeking a route into
the Indian country beyond Schieffiin's s
find.
Reaching the diversion point, be left
the troopers and, pointing to the distant
hills, he said, 'Out there | expect TO find
my fortune" The commanding officer
replied, saying, "Yesi You'll find your
tombstone-op Geronimo will get you :"
So Schieffiin called his bonanza Tomb
stone. Portland Oregonian.

better than 30 bushels per acre
of as fine and clean threshed red
wheat as ever grew.
Mr.. Johnson is putting this
crop from the field into his new

about 75c per acre, or less than
&c. per buseel. You couldn't feed

the money.

BASE BALL

The base ball game Sunday be-
tween Roy and Dawson on the Roy
diamond drew a large crowd and en-
tertained them royalty. 1t was not
a fast game, but it kept you guessing
all the way through. The first three
innings were 0 on both sides, then
Roy scored 2 in the 4th, Dawson got
in four scores later and more in the
9Th and Roy then got busy and ran in
six scores in the last inning, making
it read 8 to Z in favor of Roy.
McCargo pitched and Wood caught
for Roy. Dawson's first-baseman had
the misfortune to hook his toe into
the base, fall and sprain his leg so a
substitute had to finish for him.
E. j. H. Roy umpired for Roy and
no decision was questioned on either
umpire throughout the game.
Aug.
14th, Van Houten's crack team will
measure skill with Roy on the Roy
diamond. Games with Mills and Mos
quero are in the offing and the great
national game will finish the season
in as good form as we have played the
first half Of the season.
