A Right Anglcd Triangle
ing one too.

| hiSnt hnBlcu Triangle
Perhaps the very smartest hat in to-
days group, from a Paris standpoint,
Is the dashing model of black milan
with brim that turns sharply up. to-
ward one side of the front, making
rlght angled triangle of the shape. the
corner of the triangle over the left
eye and the long slope Of brim at the
back forming the hypothenuse of the
triangle. The style originated in
Paris, at the Maison Lewis and the
original hat was of black celaphone.
The pictured model is OF fine black
milan and the trimming is a black
breast which is placed across the
front OF the crown, feathery ends
shooting off at the right side. There
IS great deal OF subtlety about the
shape or this hat, which is not the
least stiff in spite of the triangular
and cNa Grated brim The straw is
soItly rolled over around the edge of
the brim and this soft, becoming roll

and the huted effect above the soft roll
reIieves any possible suggestion of
severity. The shape Is bound to be a
very fashionable one--though such
hats can only be produced satisfac-
lorlly with fine. supple straw and this

deal of straw is used in the large |

for childhood
When you come to consider them,
these juvenile Easter togs are far
more fascinating than grown-up wear
ablcs. Such crisp, smart little top
coats; such gay little frocks of en-
broidered linen or batiste, or ruiiled
silk; such fascinating Easter boots,
shiny patent leather in the toe part
and neatly buttoned cloth above-and
as for the Easter bonnets and ribbon
trimmed hats for little maids of two
to teens, never was anything more
irresistible. And for some of the wee
headcoyerings you may pay almost
as much as for your own Easter hat.

- HOUGH silk covered shapes hold
their own this spring. the really
stunning Easter hat will be OF
straw. New all-straw models
seem SO engaging-after one has been
forced to economic scrupulously in
straw for several years--that quite
naturally the blocked straw shapes
nave the preference. There are tur-
bans, tricornes and the particularly
favored marquis shape which has a
low crown and 4 wide brlm rolling
back against the crown in front. This
duplicates the line OF winter hats
made OF velvet. with unstiflened brims
caught back against the crown. These
mats proved so becoming that they
simply had TO be duplicated in straw
and the style Is called the marquis
shape to differentiate Il from the tri-
corne. A smart model OF the sort Is
pictured rather large hat OF fine
plack milan with long ostrich feath-
e? shaped like tassel falling over
az one side of the brim. Evelyn
FaTon brought out the first hat Of
tnis kind. "a dark blue milan marquis
shape with sbrim quite ecllpsing the
crown from a front view. and blue
wings bound all around with patent
leather shooting out al either side.
Leather And Even OIL Cloth On New
Hats
Leather IS a very favored material
for trimming spring hats. Tailored
hats have cunning leather belts with
metal eyelets and buckles instead OF
ribbon bands around the crown. There
are Mowers with petals and leaves of
ieather-or rather, soft kid. And
wings bound with leather are newest
of the new. Oh cloth is a still strang-
er hat trimming. but there are even
whole turbans OF shiny oicloth em-
broidered with wool flowers.

Beef raising in the East and
South Is worthy OF more general
consideration than 1t enjoys at pres
ent. Here Is a system of farming
recognized as a permanent soil i'm
proven. and soil impoverishment Is
one of the most threatening obsta-
cles to agriculture in these sections.
1t is a system which requires a mini
mum of labor and labor Is a big
problem with the farmer today. II
Is profitable and safe. However. re-
turns are slow at the start and they
are smaller per acre than those de-
rived from dalrying or specialized
crops. Formerly labor was cheaper
than land, and capital was elusive.
So the Eastern farmer found 1t more
profitable to follow a system which
gave quick returns st the expense
of labor and soil fertility.
With no bountiful supply OF
farm labor in sight and no evidence
of too much meat and leather In
the world. ii may be well for some
farmers to investigate beef produc-
tion. That it can be adapted to a
thickly settled region is shown by
England where larger crops are
grown now than the land was able
to produce 200 years ago.
!. Livestock has been the founda-
'tion of English agriculture since the
beginning of the modern breeds.
That beef cattle and high-priced
land may be combined is demon
strated by such centers as Lancas-
ter County, Pa, one of the three
richest agriculture counties in this
country, and one in which beef cat
tie have formed the basis of the
agriculture.
The stockman does not get rich
quick, but he is following a system
that develops a prosperous COM
munity and one that will never
wear out. The man who sticks to
II through low prices and short
crops wins. 1t is no business to
start when conditions look good and
stop when things begin to go
wrong. Farmers who try this sell
dom make a success with their
beef cattle. But to the man who
can take the lean years with the
fat ones beef cattle show good re-

suits. As a rule the old stockman
is well to do. and able to stand Pc
riods Of depression.
The size of farm must be consid-
cred. A man cannot afford to spend
two years to raise q couple OF
steers. His farm must be large
enough for a working unit" but
1t need not be q 1,000-acre ranch.
Remarkable successes have been
made with beef cattle on relatively
small farms. There IL man In
West Virginia who has achieved
wonders with feeding steers on

has "the biggest ninety-acre farm
In several States"
Soil and topography must be
suited to forage crops and pasture.
Cheapest gains are made on pas
ture. Satisfactory results will hard
ly obtain where abundant pasture
is not available. A rich limestone
soil that will grow bluegrass is
ideal, while q thin sandy soil un-
suited to grass will not feed many
steers well.
It pays to intensity farming up
to the point of greatest profit for
the conditions. Present labor con-
ditions may make this point lower
in some sections than II has been in
the past. By proper management
beef production can also be made
more Intensive" than 1t commonly
is.
With the beginning Of livestock
club work, 1t was conceded that,
while 1t was all right for a man to
own cow. boy should own a calf.
He usually fed the calf to capacity
all summer and sold It in the fall.
He could do the same thing the next
year IL he wanted to. Since one OBJ
ject of club work Is to introduce
well-bred livestock. II is now be-
lieved more desirable to have the
boy start with a bred helfer or with
COW or calf, and keep the COW,
with y the idea of establishing
him in pure-bred herd. A
more permanent interest and great =
er progress toward the chief aim of
boys and girls clubs results from
this method.
