VIRGINIA

The value of Virginia farm lands
has declined 10 per cent from last
year and Is from the record values of
1920, according to the annual survey
of the Bureau of Markets and Crop
Estimates. The demand for farm
lands has not been very strong dur
ing the past year, owing to the ire
mondous decrease in price of farm
products, Consequently there have
been few sales. Values reported are
not based upon the present earning
power of the lands, which has been
reduced almost to the 1914 base, while
tho values have dropped to those of
1919.

The average value OF all farm lands
with improvements is reported to be
$50 per acre, compared with SOC last
year, and sos in 1920. The average
value without improvements is S24
per acre, compared with SAG last year,
and $40 in 1920.
A special inquiry relating to the
average farm rents shows that very
few farms in Virginia are rented for
a cash rent, but are leased for part
Of the crop, which varied from one
fourth to three-fourths according to
the fertility Of the land and the
amount and kind of the supplies fur
nished. The average cash rent paid
for farm lands is reported to be So

RUMORS OF THE
NEW FALL STYLES
Paris and New York Differ as to the
Limits of Brevity of New Frocks.

What is fashion going to offer us
this fall in the way OF dresses?
Some breath Of the coming fashions
of next season must blow gently now
so that we may plan ahead for our
fall wardrobe. Paris is foretelllng her
plans. American modistes have begun
to exhibit their advanced models.
The we'll dressed girl is the one who
plans ahead.
Among other things to be noted as
promising among the signs OF the new
fall frocks are the following:
Paris insists that skirts shall be
longer. The American dressmaker has
compromised and, While not lower
ing the hem of the skirt to the ridlcu-
louslv low level OF some leading
French modistes, still we have left the
short and full Skirt behind for while.
Crepes and chiffons, both figured
and plain, are holding their sway over
the fnery loving hearts.
Sleeves are both long and short
The sports costumes are very vague
as to sleeves. Some sleeves are so short
as to almost suggest sleevelessness-
Then. too, the real sleeveless dress is
popular both for day time and evening
wear
However, fashion seems to predict
the advent of simulated sleeves tor
fall evening dresses Lace lends itself
charmingly to this new idea. Many OF
the sleeveless dresses apologize tor
their daring by offering lace simulated
sleeves in long graceful draperies
Scarves of lace are very effective.
Lace berthas are going to be popu-
lar. Many OF the dresses now being
offered are displaying these berthas
Lace berthas combined with long, lacy
tunics are indeed very effective.
Cream silk and wool lace is charm
| ing on the darker dresses.
White is still being given first place
in summer fabrics.
Fashion still clings to the lowered
waistline for simple straight dresses
Drawn work is an admirable trim
ming for the more simple dress.
Russian styles still continue to be
in favor with many. One-pieCe dress
es with low bloused waists and color
! ful embroidery are still popular witt
the lover of this unique styles of dress
And colorful embroidery lends itsel
admirably to the darker fall dresses.
Sailor colors with large coquettlshly
arranged ties form a pretty neck line
for many a summer outing trock.
Simplicity is the keynote OF all. Lace
is beginning a reign OF triumph luck
ed waistlines are to be featured. Pan
els still hold sway with the advent o
the longer dresses. Ribbon is to b'
used quite extensively as trimming,

Made of Table
Cloth Are Very Stylish

Do YOU know those red and white
checked table cloth that your mother
used TO have on the kitchen table
Did you think they were rather awful
then? E.,
Well, anyway, they're not awful
now. They're right in the height OF
fashion. The smartest dressmakers are
using them to make the one piece
dresses which are all the rage ior sum-
mer DAYS and for sports wear.
The table cloth frocks are made
over the simplest of one piece models
and then they are confined at the low
waist line with a piece OF white cot
ton tape. And where the printing OF
the blocks comes on to the white linen
then there is left a white stripe OF that
linen to reach down the back OF the
dress. Sometimes, indeed, it stretches
down the front of that dress, but in
any event it is left there to adorn the
frock as sort of added decoration.
One of the chief beauties OF these
tablecloth dresses is that they wash
with all the ease and grace OF the
usual tablecloth. There is no danger
that the color will run, no danger that
the material will shrink, for it is all
Of extra good and heavy linen and it
has every attribute which will keep
it living through long and hectic
season.
So if your mother has a red or
yellow or blue tablecloth that is en-
cunbering her shelves, then just per-
suade her to give it over to your ten
der care and you can appear in one
Of the fashionable dresses of the day.
