expect to see elaborate sleeves.
The rumored return of the normal
waistline is not borne out by present
displays; the waist line continues low
and very often is bloused. Skirts
grow longer and panels continue to
adorn them, usually draped and fall

contrasting colors, ornamental buckles,

little silver buttons are much in evil

BABY BEEF MOST PROFITABLE
Young Animals Give Greater Returns
Than Older ones-can Be More
Economically Fattened.

The phrase "baby beer has been in
existence for many years. At first It
was to some extent term Of re-
proach, but any stigma attached to 1t
has worn off, and it Is now part and
parcel of modern farming.
Baby beef Is early maturity In con-
centrated form. An animal that loses
Its calf flesh may yet be finished at q
fairly early age, but it will never
make baby beef. The latter. in addition
to early maturity, must combine quail
tty, finish and thickness Of flesh.
There are many cattle that cannot be
fattened early; breeding will play ita
part in this as In other things.
Experiments carefully planned and
carried out have demonstrated that
young animals will give a greater re-
turn in beef for food, and can, there
fore, be more economically fattened
than older ones.
The advantage Is from rs to 80
per cent in favor Of the younger ami.
NAL. This is quite sufficient margin
to induce many who have not yet es
sayed baby beef to try it. 1t has an
other advantage in being ready for
the market at any time, and can be
sent off If trade is good or held back
If prices are low. There is a quicker
turnover, greater profit. and bet.

CHIEF NAICHE CURES HIS
WIFE'S JEALOUSY

HVoU are Jealous Of your sister.

Of the Chiricahua Apaches, to the elder
Of his two wives one day. Il will cure
you" So he threw a cartridge into
the chamber Of his rifle and shot her
that sort seemed TO run in Matches
family. An army officer who visited
old Cochise, his father, in 1878 in the
Dragon mountains, Arizona, noticed
that the chiefs hand was badly burned
In two circular holes. He asked about
them and Cochise explained that they
had been made by his younger wife,
who was jealous of the older. She had
bit him so badly that he had to cauter-
lze the wound.
Because Cochise's son was constant
Y leading his playmates into trouble
1e was given the name Na-ai-che,
which means ''miSchievous," or med
dlesome," prophetic name. When old
Cochise died and the chieftainShip
passed on to Naiche he more than up
held the traditions of his family.
He first made his name known In
1881, when he led his Chiricahua war
riors on devastating raids all over the
Southwest. This band was known as
"Geronimo's band" although, as a mat
ter of fact, Naiche was the real chief
and Geronimo merely warrior leader
of considerable renOwn. For five years
they went their bloody way. Then, in
1885, Geronimo was finally cornered
and forced to surrender to General
Miles.
Naiche did not surrender until day
later. He felt that 1t was appropriate
for Elm. son of the great Cochise and
first chief of the Chiricahuas, to be the
last to lay down arms and cease fight
ing the white man whom he and his
fathers had fought for two centuries.
When the hostile Chiricahuas were
finally settled at Fort Sill as prisoners
of war they looked to Naiche as their
leader. He was a most forceful ana
reliable man, proud and Self-reSpect-
ing chieftain," was Gen. Hugh SCOTS
tribute to him. Naiche became men,

proyed to be faithful officer. Like
Geronimo, he accepted Christianity ana
thereafter always signed his name
.Christian Naiche." He was signing It
when he cured his wife of jealousy!
After years of pleading. the Chiri'
cahuas finally were allowed to return

satisfaction of leading his people back
