AN ADVANTAGE

Farmers may be getting low prices out they
have one big advantage over the rest OF us.
The city chap pays thirty-eight per cent Oh
his income for food and has to pay income tax
on the dollars that buy the food.
Rrt the farmer gets his food, rent and often
..hor ,i,,ny sxpenses before he begins reckon
ing his taxable income.
Is that right? Ethically, no. for pfa'"Na
purposes, yes. Too many are conceh'raNins -
cities. They must be gotten back TO the iaha

THIRTY-SIX HOUSAND PELTS


Canada's 1920 fur catch, recently reported
through our consular service totalled 100000
pelts or, roughly, one to every three Inhabitants
of the Dominion. Its value is put at $21, SS7,000,
rather less than 81 a skin.
The muskrat catch was important. exceeding
Sc 600, 900 in worth so there should be no lack
of Hudson Seal this winter. Beaver came
next with more than $1,000, 900 with marten'
mink and silver fox trailing. The average value
per pelt showed silver fox leading at $24o, fol-
lowed by black fox, fisher (pekan) blue ana
patch fox. Ontario's output was greater than
that of any other province, with Quebec ana
Manitoba next.
Ninety per cent. of these pelts represent the
work of Indians, trapping alone in the wilder
ness far beyond the vacation range of even the
most ardent amateur northwoodsman. Even the
making of summer furs of some of them cannot
rob them of their romance altogether. But on
it comes close to it, at that.

Fabrics of Washable Variety Are No
Longer in Class With High
Priced Luxuries.

There seems to be no reason what
ever why every woman should not be
daintily gowned at comparatively
small cost this summer. Fabrics of
the washable variety, whether cotton
or linen, are no longer in the luxury
class, and certainly style designers
have offered a splendid range of at
tractive styles.
A frock of two materials is one of
the excellent examples of smart sim
plicity offered this season. 1t may be
white or plain color linen with Gre
tonne. This type of dress is cut on
the simplest of lines, buttons sensible
and comfortably in the center back,
and is of the one-piece variety. The
cretonne is used for collar and cuffs
and to form a girdle effect at either
side.
White organdie and gingham in a
half-inch check in blue and white, red
and white or yellow and white, are
frequently combined in dainty sum-
worked out in some very pleasing
blouses for wear with white tub skirts.
The major portion of the blouse is
usually of the organdie with pipings,
belt or girdle and collar, of gingham,
instead of using the sheer material as
trimming for the heavier fabric.
Foulard, either plain of figured,
makes a great number of the most ef-
fective imported gowns. Pongee-
they call it "tussor" over there-will be
another popular summer fabric. 1t is
already used, a great deal in Paris in

FADS AND FASHIONS

Checks are good for sport wear.
The latest fad is plaid silk hosiery.
Paris is showing much gray foot
wear.
Red-and-white hats are very fash
ionable.
Embroidery is not as popular as it
was last fall.
The long or jacket-length circular
cape is popular.
Just now canton and finer crepes
are being worn.
Suits are worn more than dresses
for street wear.
Everywhere one sees drapery USED
without restriction.
Little ribbon loops make favorite
trimming for frocks.
A silk ratine is used for suits, skirts
and separate wraps.
A satin-striped georgette is used for
dresses and blouses.
Many of the smartest frocks close
with single button.
Black shoes are worn with any color
costume or stockings.

casaquin corsage of jade-green taf-
fetas, the latter curiously embroidered

with tiny cut jet beads in the inter-

This gown had wonderful girdle-
which fell over the hips-of cut jet
and silver. Just at the waist there
was an obviously unreal camellia made
of pure colored organdie muslin.
Here and there sensational models
are exhibited to catch the attention of
those foreign buyers who insistently
demand something different" but the
fact remains that all the best dressed
women-Parisiennes and Americans
alike-are wearing dainty frocks which
still display a straight outline even
though a good deal of supple material
may be crushed into the composition
of robe.

Summer Fabrics
Are Fascinating

We hold out our hands to welcome
ihe real summer weather, because,
observes a fashion writer, there comes
our chance to take on the picturesque
garments, and this year not only have
the summer fabrics been perfected to
formerly unsuspected degree, but
their fineness and beauty have In
spired the creators of fashions to work
them into more fascinating summer
frocks. There are things that can be
done with cOttons and linens and soft
silks that could not be attempted in
more cumbersome fabrics. And this
year they have been done in a most
expressive way. OF trimmings there
are few and those which do appear
are handled in a restrained manner,
being applied only where they will
show to their best advantage. They
sink into the gown as though they
were a pre-conceived part Of it, in
stead of something flung on at the
last moment, when the idea of trim
ming suddenly became uppermost.
So many are the fabrics, both of
domestic and imported origin, that no
one of them can be said to hold the
lead above another. But the thin or
candies and swiss and dotted mulls
certainly have received a lot of atten-
tion and all buying signs point to the
fact that they will be more popular
for daily and evening wear than they
have ever been before. Their colorS
are their chief fascination for there
are the most beautiful hues and tone /;
the dyers have outstripped themselves
in achieving really thrilling colors.
And they have done this coloring SO
subtly that, no matter how startling
the color may be, it still has the soft
ness that makes it becoming.
Combinations of Strong coIors.
The combinations of strong colors
with patches and frills and founces
of white organdie are being wonder
fully done. Organdie in pure white
is used with. ginghams, with calicoes,
with chintzes, with sateens, with
swiss with crepes, with other or
CANDIES, with silks-yes, with every
| fabric known to the summer ward
robe. i. White organdie in some form
or another is almost necessity, and
| there is this to be said for it when it
| is used, that dress wherein it is in
corporated is bound to be a success,
for the crispness of the transparent
white stuff is so becoming that it
cannot be rivaled by any other ma
terial or trimming
In some cases bits of white lace are
combined with the white organdie to
make the trimming more notable, but
the lace is fine and narrow. Filet
has gone out of fashion more or less
perhaps because it was so consistent
" overdone-and in its place we have
the real bits of valenciennes, the en-
Oroidered swiss trimmings. The lat
ter embrOideries are coming along in
cOlors made to match the tones of the
materials, and these are as good look
ing as the spring dyed laces have been,
with character all their own to
make them notable. The cream-col-
pred swiss embroideries are extreme

yoke with quantity puffed white or
candle sleeves. Then, at the places
where the gingham meets the organ
die there are bookings with bindings
of black cotton braid. 1t makes q
little picture dress most becoming to
some types of women, and in its sim
plicity it has everything to recon-
mend it.
Another gingham frock has a plain
turned-back collar of the embroidered
swiss. Then the. tiny, short sleeves
have narrow turned-back edging of
the same trimming. The gingham is
in cool green and white checks and
the trimming is of that deep cafe au
lait tone that combines so nicely with
the shades of green. The collar is
rounded and the simplest sort of
narrow black velvet ribbon bow is
poised under the chin.
Carrying out the idea of the Bram-
ley blouse, which has been so very
popular all winter, there are summer
ones being made in colored linens,
with skirts to match and white linen
collars and cuffs. Then there is a
fetching model made of white heavy
linen, with colored linen collars and
cuffs with a narrow belt made of the
colored linen stitched.
An organdie frock is made of a
shade Of yellow termed maize. 1t is
deep lustrous tone. Its trimming
ic r,aoda of e;npIa nuAiprc of vr,hito
organdie not more than an inch and
a half wide when finished. They edge
the low and rounded neckline; they
form two rows on the short, tightly
fitting sleeves, and they run around
the skirt in two rows. The bodice of
this frock is short wasted and slight
ly bloused and the skirt is quite full
after the accepted manner of the sum-
mer organdies.
Demand OId-Fashloned Line.
Many of the little calico frocks are
made up on this same accepted short
wasted model There is something
about the tininess of their all-over
patterns that seems to demand that
particular old-fashioned line. One that
is extremely interesting, in design has
sleeves that are puffed in a restrained
way, the little, tight arm bands being
edged with a rick-rack braid. The
calico is that red and black combina-
ZION which is the acme of the period
that the material represents and the
braiding is in the same tone Of red.
There is a square cut-out yoke with
the braided edging and the same braid
runs around the bottom of the gath
cred skirt to make an uneven edge
there. For a belt there is a simple
piece of black velvet ribbon with long
streamers at the left side.
The printed English sateens are jyst
as popular as the calicoes, for both
of these materials give practically the
same effect. A yellow and black sat
cen model was made with one of these
long, slightly fitted, slightly draped
bodices. 1t was buttoned all the way
I'D the back of that long waist with
a row of the smallest possible black
| buttons. 1t had a pointed neck-line
edge with a little fiuting of valen-
ciennes lace and running along the
base of this ruffling was bit of black
velvet ribbon of the narrowest sort
obtainable, tied in saucy little bow
where the V-neck came to a point.

Women Want Change in Clothes and

Since cOstuming is a matter of de-
Felopment. according TO Edwin Good

is in suffrage, will not adopt the lines
Of an unnatural figure. The long
straight lines will continue, and the
change in style win be in the develop

new effects by artful draperies, and
the use of original ideas in garnitures
and embroiderieS.
Nevertheless, women desire as much
change as possible in clothes, and Will
adopt with great pleasure the style OF
a bygone day., the graceful. straight
lined costume made famous by the
charm Of the beautiful Josephine. Ger

LONG BLOUSE OUT OF DAFT
Hip Length Is Favorite; Many Reach
Point Just Below the Nor
nal WaistIine.

Waist length blouses, except in mod
els of the distinctly sport type,
have gained no headway this season,
but the extremely long blouses seem
to have been entirely abandoned. Few
are seen that are more than hip
length. A great many reach a point
Just below the normal waistline This
is especially true of the handsome
lingerie blouses being brought out for
summer. A lovely blouse of this type
recently seen combined a very fine
voile, real filet lace and an equally
beautiful embroidery insertion. The
blouse was as straight as little shirt,
just covered the belt of the skirt, and
was caught to the figure rather loosely
at either side by inch-wide navy blue
picot-edge faille ribbon.

The TuniC Blouse
Garment in "Casaquin" Style
Beautiful and Useful.
Gives Long Waist Line and corsaee
Can Be Made Gorgeous
or Simple.

One Of the most important novel
hes of the present season is the
highly decorative tunic blouse which
is fashioned in "casaquin" style but
which forms in itself a very beautiful
and useful garment. The casaQuin
outline, according to a Paris fashion
writer, has become an established ia
Vorite.
This is easy to understand. A well
cut casaquin blouse makes the figure
look slender and eminently graceful.
1t gives the long waist line now so
fashionable and corsages of this order
can be made as gorgeous, or as SIM
pie, as individual taste suggests.
Now that it is again the fashion to
have the skirt of one coIOr-and ma
terial-and the corsage of quite an
other, an opportunity is given for pic
.uresque combinations of all kinds, and
the Parisiennes have not been slow to
make the most of an agreeable situa-
lion.
Individual women have done this,
but far more important is the example
set by some of our leading dress de-
signers. One of the latest models had
draped skirt made of a new black
crepe which has a slightly rough sur
face and casaquin corsage in dull
rose mousseline de sole embroidered
In soft shades of rose, copper and
dark gray.
The corsage, which was severely
plain save for the embroideries, came
down a few inches below the normal
waist, and at the hem it was slightly
draped. The sleeves were quite short
the neck was cut round, and at the left
side, just over the hip, there was a wa
terfal of black ribbons.
Another Doeuillet model of similar
design had a draped skirt in black
lace mounted over silver tulle and 6

Simplicity continues to be the DOM
inant style note, if simplicity can be
said to be dominant, small out-of-the-
ordinary touches serving to give dis.
tinction to this seasons outer gar
ments. For example, a simple frock of
yellow organdie recently seen was
made unusual by the trimming-a skirt

and white checked gingham in various
sizes, daintily hemstitched into the or

white linen stood out from the crowd
because of its trimming. An inch-wide
frill of bright red organdie edged it all
about. Red buttons and an inch-wide
belt of red leather completed the frock.
