the various counties of the state.
Freezing temperatures occurred on
several nights in the western half and
on one or two mornings in the south
east portion. While these have added
little to the damage of the severe
freezes of the previous two weeks,
they tended to defer crop growth
which would have been expected had
the abundant moisture been followed
by warm weather.
Wheat in the southeast quarter and
from the Kaw Valley to the Nebraska
line is generally in good condition
and growing nicely. Here and there
early fields in the southeast portion
that had begun to joint were damaged
by the freeze. In the central and
western counties, where most of the
wheat was frozen to the ground and
turned brown, the growth has been
very slow this week and some cor

respondents are doubtful about it re-
covering entirely. especially as much
of it had already been weakened by
prolonged dry weather. High winds
added further damage this week by
blowing soil in the western third of
the state.
The returns of freezing weather
have been distinctly unfavora BILE to
oats, which is generally frozen to the
ground, except in some of the south
east counties, and what is left has a
poor color. In several of the north
eastern counties oats have been extern
sively re-seeded- Barley that was up
was also frozen back in the north
western counties, where this crop is
largely raised.
Alfalfa is showing the effects of
the freeze quite generally. 1t is also
rather badly infested with the green
bug in the southeastern counties, es-
pecially Montgomery, Labette, and
Wilson, and as far north as the Kaw
Valley, tho the cool weather seems
to have checked the ravages of the
pest. Pastures have not made much
growth this week and stock have not
generally been turned on them, ex-
cept in the southeast and south-cen-
trail counties.
Corn planting made very little head
way, owing to the lack of warm
weather. The condition of fruit buds
has not changed materially. Reports
indicate that some peaches and cher
ries and a considerable part of the
apple crop, have escaped.

SAY IT in "BLAH"

Pitcher Carl Mays OF the
Yankees has coined a new word
to hurl at umpires.
It's "Blah."
When his Jump rufles the sub

Umpire Chill contends that
this newly coined word for
baseball players is Okay with
him as It doesn't mean anything.
That's a good tip to other
quick-spOken ball players.
Just say "Blah." II gives you

Der of large motifs designed from
such models
There are rich Chinese motifs. The
plumage OF tropical birds has played
its part IN inspiring color. And in-
terspersef with these are lovely
floral patterns printed on clear back
grounds. So one may safely say that
there is no other one fabric catering
to so many tastes and offering such
vast variety
A chemise dress of cretOnne has
a large pattern in red, green and
black on French blue background
The bottoms Of the sleeves and the
neck are bound with red linen and
the frOck is drawn in at the waist
line with a string belt Of red linen.
On model Of cotton crepe, In
cool shade Of green, the skirt has
apron panels and the dress is trimmed
with bands of cretonne which has
a background exactly matching the
crepe in color and bold pattern in
black.
The very young people, like their
mothers, are dressed In cretOnne.
Children are extremely fond of anus
ing clothes to dress up in. They do not
look upon clothes of this sort as real
clothes, but as something to wear
when playing games.
Not new idea, you may say, for
garden aprons for children have been
shown In the shops for some time,
and dresses of this material for
grown-ups made their appearance at
Palm Beach last winter, but the idea
of making vast showing Of cretonne
clothes and devoting a whole depart
ment to them, as this French special
ty shop has done, Is a new one, and
has attracted a great deal of atten-
ton to this fabric for midsummer
country clothes.
Effects In MauVe and Gray
If you are not one of those athirst
for color, you may find great pleasure
and satisfaction In the chIntz frOcks
Of soft mauve and gray tones They
have little pun sleeves Of white or
candle that may be little more than
caps that extend to the elbow. Often
these sheer white sleeves are finished
with band of old-fashioned en-
brOidery or they may be gathered In
to Just a plain band of the organdle
Ornsmented with running stitch Of

Cretonne hats, although not new,
are excellent for country wear at this
season of the year There is not a
great deal from which TO choose in
inexpensive straw hats for this pur-
pose, but If we resort to cretonne we
may have an almost limitless variety
for very little expenditure, especially
so If one is at all adept in trimming
hat ones self.
