T. VERY woman may go to the mil
- linery shop determined to find a
hat that adds at least 20 per cent to
her attractivenesS, for such a hat is
to be found there There IS so great a
variety Of shapes and such diversity
of styles that it is not hard to follow
the advice conveyed by that reliable
old millinery adage which says a -Wom-
an should look better with her hat
than without it. She may choose be-
tween hats large. small and medium In
size, all good style, in endless variety
Of shapes and materials and having
the advantage of real beauty In their
lines. IF the head is an average size
it will not be hard to find becoming
shape, but, If it is either larger or
smaller than the average, a hat must
be made to fit it, for this is the most
essential thing in the matter Of becom-
ingness.
There are quite a number Of little
hats with wells of net or lace playing
the most important part In their
adornment Usually the wells are very
brief affairs draped cleyerly on shapes
nlOng with flowers. They are wonder
fully becoming In q few models the

is longer but not very long at the back.
On spring and summer millinery flow
ersaA grains grasses and apes are
feaehred and many have streamers OF
silk or velvet ribbon. An example of
these pretty tri1nmings-a revival OF
times gone by in the styles, appears
in the hat of lisere braid with it's sash
of moire ribbon and clusters of flowers
and grapes with. wheat and grass
among them.
Among the hats for midsummer
there are many black ones of hair
braid and malines Or lace. Some Of
them have very wide brims and col
lars of velvet ribbon with a single
long sash end. Sometimes two or three
very long-stemmed roses droop over
the brim edge toward the back, and in
other models a variety of flowers
posed fiat on the brim, show through
the transparent fabric. A lovely hat

River to Go HIGHER.

According to the latest forecast of
the Weather Bureau, the Mississippi
i;>'er will reach stage of 1926 feet at
Donaldscnville between May rs and
%. The highest stage previously
forecasted was 31.6, but this level
has been passed and the water is ris-
irg slowly but steadily. The pre-
dicted increase is due, according to
the forecast, to the unfavorable
southeast winds which have prevailed
and which have retarded the passage
of the water out of the river. No
weak spots have appeared anywhere
in the levees of the state, all of which
are said to be in frst-class condition
and amply capable of withstanding
the additional rise predicted.

Farm Cow a National Asset

The farm COW that gives milk for
human food stands first, with a total
value Of S2,022, 100000, as compar-
ed with other classes Of farm animals
for January l, 1920, by the Bureau
Of Crop Estimates of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Not even the total value of all other
cattle is equal to the value Of the
dairy cow. The average price per
head of milk cows in this country has
increased from $685., since Jan
uary 1, 1915, to $91.95, the average
for 1919, or gain Of 5S per cent in
five years, according to the bureau.

To Eliminate Cash Bonuses.

A movement to eliminate the cash
bonus feature of the soldier relief
bill has been started among members
Of the house ways and means COM
mittee at Washington. An effort will
be made to strike out the cash bonus
sections on the ground that distribu-
ton of such a large sum of money is
bound to result in a big increase in

give ex-service men instead of the
cash, an option of farm or home aid,

The Horse and the Motor.

Even though it may be true that
the motor-driven vehicle has begun
to put the farm horse ''on the run,
there is no evidence that he has de-
veloped much speed, and his total
value still compares favorably with
other classes Of farm animals. On
january 1, 1920, the Bureau of Crop
Eatimates Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture estimated
the total value of horses on farms in
this country at $1,993,0OO,OOO, or
just a little below the value of milk
cows, which was $2,022, 100000.
