Accessory for Headgear Also Has
Head of Pearls or Arrow of
Diamonds.

The pins for hats are still elaborate
and set with brilliants, but fewer Of
them are worn. Increasing favor is
shown, according to Vogue, to the
small pin with head of pearls or the
arrow of diamonds, also small, which
is set here or there to hold The hat to
the hair. Wells are seldom worn over
the face, except the very fine almost
invisible veil which serves to hold
the hair in place. On the other hand,
the long veil of chantilly or applique
lace, of chenille or of rare old lace, is
draped over certain shapes in such a
way that one of the points is brought
up in front and hangs down in back.
For the woman who fancies envel-
oping wells, there are thousand ways
of wearing them. Lewis drapes over

The sunlight admitted by the many
windows also has purifying effect
on the air in the barn. 1t will be
noted by consulting the floor plan that
the 81 stalls are grouped in four
blocks and that the animals face the
center of the building. This arrange.

full benefit of the sunlight. When it
is remembered that sunlight is na.

stood that there is a strong motive for
this arrangement.
Another feature of the modern dairy
barn is its equipment. The factory
method Of arranging the equipment so
that the work can be done easily and
quickly is used in the modern dairy
barn. Also numerous pieces of labor
saving equipment are installed.
The stall partitions usually are of
steel, set into the concrete floor. These
partitions are easily kept clean and

sanitary. The floors of the stalls are
either of concrete or some of the less
hard floor materials, such as cork brick
or wood block. Back of each stall is a
gutter, which permits the refuse to be
washed to a drain whence it is piped
| to liquid manure tank.
Overhead is a carrier track running
over both the litter alleys at the sides
of the stable and over the feeding al.
| ley through the center of the building.
The carrier that is hung to the track
provides a means by which the litter
can be removed to the manure piles
at the rear of the stable and by which
the food can be distributed to the stall
head.
Drinking cups, which are connected
to the pipes from the water pressure
system are located at the stall head

KEROSENE LAMPLIGHT BEST
Efficiency of the Eye Declared to Be
Best When a Yellow Flame
Is Used.

There has long been an impression
that yellow light is more agreeable to
the eye than that containing chiefly
the green and blue rays, and it is
generally believed. for example, by
many medical and technical men that
the kerosene flame produces a more
"restful'' light than other illuminants.
especially than incandescent solids.
This supposition has been submitted
to careful tests by G. E. Ferree and
G. Rand, and the results have appear
ed in the Transactions Of the nlumf-
mating Engineering society, remarks
the Scientific American Monthly. The
experiments have compared the kero-
sense flame with the light from the
carbon incandescent lamp, the Mazda
lamp and with Welsbach mantles con-
tanning various amounts of ceria, and
therefore varying in yellowness. The
standard of comparison is the eff
cheney of the eye as determined by

Up to 1885 handkerchiefs were of
every conceivable size and shape
Then one evening Queen Marie An
toinette, in a fit of passion or indig-
nation at Versailles, said that all ker-

to indicate good taste. The result
was that Louis XVI issued a decree

the quicker the farmer gets his plans

The advantages and good features
Of modern dairy barns and cows sta
bles have been pointed out in these
articles numerous times, but they are
SO important to the man who wants to
get the maximum of profit from his
herd that they will bear repetition
many times.
Sunlight. fresh air and warmth are
the three things that make cows pro-
ductive and healthy. And nature fur
nishes all three without charge. The
dairy herd owner, however, has to sup
ply the building in which natures
gifts may be conserved and put to
work for the profit Of the dairyman.

Milady Goes In
for Accessories

The accessories of dress play no
small part in the fashions of the mo-
ment. Along with the high cost of
living a reckless expenditure of money
for every detail of a voman's toilette
has developed. One would think OBJ
serves prominent fashion writer, that
money had no value whatever in the
eyes of the world and that woman's
supreme desire was the possession
OF everything that is beautiful and flat
tering, regardless of cost.
This craze, as it were, for spend
ing money is psychological. 1t is COM
modities that the world lacks now and
not money. Therefore, the value of
all material things is enhanced in the
eyes OF the prospective purchaser.
There is an avarice for the possession
of articles of adornment rather than
for money.
Many of the most reckless Spenders
are those who before the war did not
have great fortunes. Money has come
easily and it goes quickly. This is
why woman will pay as much today
for some dainty nOnessential accessory
of the toilette as she paid yesterday
for basic necessity. Apparently, she
does not care that her veil costs as
much as her hat, her purse as much
as her dress, her fan as much as a
coat and her hair ornaments as much
as she once spent for real jewels.
Nothing Too Extreme.
No evening toilette is complete with
out some form of headdress or hair
ornament, and nothing seems too ex-
treme or fantastic to find favor. The
hair is dressed very simply and close
to the head. All extravaganza of out
line is given, therefore, by ornaments
or garnitures of the most striking sort
The interest in Spanish fashions
manifests itself markedly in the high
| back Spanish comb, delicately carved
and set with real or imitation jewels
and sometimes with the high open
back holding panel of priceless lace
There are also Egyptian hair orna
ments of Egyptian and Greek types
In fact, almost every source of in
spiratiOn has been drawn upon tC
provide designs. The antennae of the
butterfly are worked out in fine golt
wires springing from a jeweled pend
ant adorning the forehead.
Even the crude art of the American
Indian has been resorted to in thi:
mad rush for ornamentation. Like the
wife of an oldtime Indian chief, tht
woman of today wears headdresses o
dyed feathers and necklaces of wood
en- beads. To keep the latter from be
ing inexpensive a costly ornament o.
some sort, such as a piece of carved
Jade with a brilliant pendant, is at
tached.

Artificial SILK.

The silk-spinning caterpillar is an
Industrious creature, but it cannot
keep up with the steadily increasing
demand for the precious fiber it pro-
duces. Hence there is always good
market for the artificial article.
If your silk stockings "melt," you
may know that they are not woven Of
the real stuff. Artificial silk will not
endure contact with moisture; and it
has the additional disadvantage of
being highly combustible.
However, a new process has been de-

A fascinating little vanity case is
made of raspberry red seal in ob1ong

The handle consists of four straps end

of this sort should carry the initial

ing to the mountings of the purse.
Flat folded purses in billbook form
are receiving considerable attention.
These ARE quite different from the
usual commonplace leather ones. They
are developed both in leather and in
satin with inset panels of rare needle

bits cut from historic pieces torn apart
In the devastation of the war.
Carried on Bracelets.
When silk is used for the fiat bags
it is of the heavier type, such as faille,
the softer silks being reserved for
those of the puffy type.
Galilith, dyed in all colors, is used
on bags. 1t takes the form of brace
let's, dangling ornaments, chains, tops
and cuplike bottoms of bags, to which
! silk tops are attached. This is a good
way to introduce bit Of color into
a costume, and is at the same time a
less expensive mode than the beaded
bag, which. when beautiful in color
is quite expensive.
A bag on which galilith is used is
IN melon shape, with the cuplike bot
tom just described and a silk pouch
top gathered by a drawstring. There
is a cap of the galilith with holes in
the top, through which the drawstring
slips. The cap is pushed down tc
form cover for the top of the bag.
Ever so many of the new bags are
carried on bracelets. 1t may be just
a bright colored galilith bracelet or
one of solid gold, or even of platinum
set with precious stones. This fash
ion for bracelet handles furnishes al
excellent opportunity for introducing
costly effects in bags. This, unfor
tunately, seem to be one of the pres
ent-day demands.
Before passing from the subject Of
bracelets a description of a new nov
city galilith bracelet in bright cora
color may be interesting. 1t is made
in small rectangular pieces about
inch long and u inch wide. Holes
are pierced in the galilith and through
them very narrow elastic is run tt
make the bracelet pliable, so that i
will fit any part of the arm. In these
bracelets we see the return of fash
ion of our grandmothers' days.
