Dress Serves as Sort OF Go-Between
in Matter Of Formal Clothes
Cool for Afternoon.

Every woman welcomes the return
of the net frock, sort of go-hetween
in the matter of formal clothes. And
too, net can be made so simply that
1t is lovely and cool for afternoon.
This year the net and lace dress
has come in for its own again.
And isn't it delight to have so splen-
did an opportunity to use odds and
ends of lace? What you have prob
ably worked out in the patch collar,
composed of bits Of hand-embroidered
net. filet, Irish Val and other laces,

scale on net gown.
Some of the net gowns are made
with a puffy net petticoat, drawn In

though sedate shades OF black. gray

there Is much lnvishness of gay color

Really elaborate fur trimmings do

A strange feature of new wraps
Is the combination of color and mate

imitation edges to match. No one
but the closest student of these things
can tell them from the real edge.

vious owners may have planted either
common barberry or the purple-leayed
variety among your clumps of bushes
or in the border.
Your father or grandfather or some
ones grandfather may have planted
one bush or a whole hedge Of bushes
from which the birds have scattered
seeds In all directions along streams
and in wood lots. You may have ac-
quired such property recently. AT
any rate, look over your property
carefully for barDerries. RI you find
any, dig them and report the number
and location either to your agricultur-
al college, or to the Office of cereal
investigations, bureau of plant indus
try, United States department of ag-
ricul{nre, Washington, d. G., so rec
ord may be had of them. BY this
means those engaged in the eradica-
ton work can check back to see that
any sprouts overlooked are dug up.
Letters win be sent to persons making
the reports urging them to be sure
no sprouts were left in the ground.
Many Roots Missed.
Even with the most careful digging
many small roots doubtless have been
missed. Seeds too, may have been
shaken Off and covered by loose earth.
Many of these no doubt will sprout
during the spring and summer. The
tender leaves Of sprouts or seedlings
are even more likely to become infect
ed with wheat rust than leaves of ma
ture bushes. Sprouts. If allowed to
remain, will soon grow into large
bushes. The work already done will
then be in vain
II you dug your barberry bushes
the year before last, or last year, or
even this spring, watch the place
where they grew, and do not allow
either sprouts or seedlings to grow.

! The campaign for the eradication
Of the common barberry has entered
its third year. The work is co-opera-
tive between the United States de-
partment of agriculture and the agri-
cultural colleges of 10 of the princi-
pal wheat-growing states, namely, Col
: orado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michi-
gan, Minnesota. Montana, Nebraska,
North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota,
Wisconsin and Wyoming. Most of the
bushes In cities and towns have been
located. All reports of country plant
ings have been followed up. Surveys
of all rural properties completed in
q few counties of each state gave an
average Of 20 paintings per county on
farms. Over million and a half
barberry bushes were found escaped
from cultivation In one county In

RAILWAY STRIKE
ON FRENCH LINES
General Federation Of Labor Refuses
to Allow Sympathetic Strike,
But Has Extended
Moral Support

! PARIS. March 1.-The general
federation of labor which has as
sumed the direction of the French
railway strike, today announced that
1t has refused to allow the strike
called in sympathy with the railway
men to be extended.
The federation will extend its
moral support only.
The strike situation remained sta
tionary today. The city's food sup
ply, government officials said, was
assured Projects in all the larger
cities in the strike areas have been
ordered to commander automobiles
and other means Of transportation
where necessary to insure proper
distribution of foods.
To prevent a fuel shortage the
government announced that all war
time coal restrictions will be REIN
posed beginning today. The reStric.
tons include early closing OF restau-
rants, theatres and amusement
places. .....
The government today inaugurated
airplane service for distribution of
mails and other essentials between
Paris, Lyons and Marsailles, Bor-
deauI, Strasburg, Brussels, London,
Tours and Dijon to be continued
throughout the strike.
Mariel Hutin in an article in the
Echo De Paris asserted that Premier
Millerand plans organization Of a
permanent civic guard composed Of
technicians and citizens generally to
fight revolutionary strikes.
The strikers today apparently had
abandoned their more specific de-
mands particularly for a promise for
immediate naturalization Of the rail
lines and we're seeking to make the
issues of a more general nature.
A majority Of trains, taking the
entire country into consideration
were reported running regularly.
Early indications of dangerous food
shortage have not been borne out and
although the public was rushing mad
ly to lay in stores Of food there was
little fear on the part of the authori-
ties OF a severe shortage.
Mobilization of strikers subject to
military duty was begun this morning
The government today indicated it's
firm intention to enforce its order
modifying all striking railway men
subject to military duty. Five strik-
ers were arrested for resisting mooil-
ization.
