MARKING UNIVERSITY
PLANNING TO BETTER
QUALITY OF COTTON
(Ry Associated Pressl

NANKING, April 29.-In line with
the growth of textile industries In
China and the increasing number of
busy spindles in mills of the country
the University of Marking plans this
year to continue and to broaden the
scope of its work to improve the quail
ity of cotton produced by Chinese
growers. This effort is receiving the
liberal support of cotton mill inter
ests of the larger centers, particularly
Shanghai.
The university plans to carry out
two general purposes: first, to obtain
for Chinese growers an acclimatized
and improved seed supply, and second,
TO introduce its use among growers.
Authorities have stated that in other
countries the production of acclima-
tiZed cotton seed has required from
three to five years. With view to
Fastening this stage what is perhaps
the most elaborate and detailed piece
of acclimatization work ever attempted
in the history of cotton growing is be-
ing carried out at Marking.
The work was begun last year when
the seed fields not only were severely
rogued to discard all plants not true
to type. but thousands Of individual
plants of the Trice and Acala varieties
were selected and picked separately.
The selected specimens of seed cotton
from these plants were studied with ex-
haustive detail in the laboratory where
all but total of about eight hundred
were discarded. These have been
grown in separate rows and picked
separately for further study in field
and laboratory with a further discard
ing of the poorest and retaining of
the best.
AS a result of the first years work
II was possible to announce this spring
that this acclimatization method can
be successfully applied in China. About
a third of the selected specimens are
above the standard of average Amer
lean cotton, it is said, and tenth are
much superior to the product with
which the work was started.

barrassed firm Of Lucille, Ltd, by
which title the institution founded by
the celebrated Lady Duff Gordon is
known, listed one customer who paid
SIS 900 a year for gowns, and gave a
variation of the question as to how
long styles lasted by explaining how
the woman in question gut on the out
side of a $4,000 bankroll each yea-
through the single medium of the
couturiere.
She was one of the distinctive
types" demanding for each social oc-
casion something designed expressly
i. for her. She was the prototype of the
society woman who once upon time
had a rich gown designed-presum-
! ably the only one of its kind, and
then swept into the Waldorf-Astoria
dining room with it, only to find that
another woman had gown like her
oYn,
Turning 20 her male companion, the
woman who thought she had had the
the only" gown, said:
"Will you be good enough to excuse
| me for few mC\lents? l must go up
stairs and chang> this UNIFORM.
Rich Wear Old Ones
That is the idea of the extreme that
needs something new with each affair
But the extremes do not belong to

ments of high society. They are the
climbers. A society journal only re

moths about the fame, seeking rec

Four Styles of Year.

ed by the seasons. For each of them
there is usually some distinctive fea-
ture of dress, as, for instance, the
length of the skirt, which is now de-
creed as longer than the former sea-
son.
in the style just passed the sleeves
of the evening gown were conspicuous
by their absence. Now the rules of
the game decree that there must be
somethig looking like sleeve.
Paris has long been the supposed
marker of style. Of late that has been
something of a fallacy, for New York
has grown to be the greatest center
of women's wear in all the world, in
quantity, value and in design.
st is no easy Job for the dress-mak-
ers Of Paris to guard their secrets.
Admission to their places is usually
by card, with cards for prospective
customers only. No one is allowed
to bring a camera, a pad and pencil
or anything that might record the
style, into the places. But the agents
of the Americans do get there.
Presidents Salary for Dress.
II have even know them to cable
descriptions in detail for use here, but
that Is the exception, because the 10
cal designer prefers photograph or a
sketch, preferably the sketch. Now
while these styles are only four as a
base, any number of changes can be
played On them, and there Is where
the smart woman with social aspira-
lions comes in. You would be sur
prised to know how many of them
make their own suggestions.
Their bills run all the way from q
single gown to the salary of the presi-
4 dent of the United States. While

FRUIT STILL SAFE,
AUTHORITIES STATE

Fears of frost damage, expressed
Friday evening, proved groundless, ac-
cording to inquiries early Saturday
morning. Although the temperature
went as low as 81 degrees at the
pumping station, just before sun-up,
the low temperature continued only
for a short time, and was neither Sc
we're nor long continued enough to
cause serious damage. fruit growers
stated.
A light frost was reported by Wal
ter Ratliff but with the statement
that probably no damage had been
done by it. Stephen Kuth stated that
a few fruit buds probably had been
nipped but no real damage done, as
there is still a super abundance of
! fruit promised. The trees were heav-
| lily loaded with bloom, beyond their
| bearing capacity, this year, he said.
| The temperature at midnight was SO
! degrees, the pumping station reported,
with the low mark at 81 just before
sunrise. The thermometer started up
/ at o'clock, and at o'clock stood
at Al degrees.

ROMAN CATACOMBS
WORK OF CHRISTIANS

The famous Roman Catacombs were
discovered in 1873 by some laborers
who were digging in vineyard about
two miles from Rome. The discovery
at once attracted immense attention,
and a Roman named Boslo, an advo-
cate by profession, was so attracted
by them that he devoted his life and
great learning to their exploration and
study In comparatively short time,
they were extensively traversed, and

How long is a woman's dress or
gown in style?
The distinction, be 1t understood,
between a dress and gown is purely
one Of cost. If it costs less than $45,
it is a dress; if 1t costs more, it is
gown. Exactly the same mental
process that makes anything under
$50 a month a fiat, and the quarters
that cost more an apartment.
A jury of Chicago women recently
refused to make an actress pay for %
gown that was five weeks late in
delivery because it had gone out Of

style In the five weeks. The actress
said that she ordered it for a given
date in February, and that it did not
reach her wardrobe until more than
a month after the date.
At the outset the purely abstract
students of the question cited the re-
port of the Kansas State Commission,
recently made, that a woman could
dress on $50 year, and listed the
dress and coat as an article that ought
to last three years. That is one ex-
IRENE of the picture.
On the other hand, the recently en-

But, getting back to the question of
how long a style lasts, one mas only to
consider the individual class to get
the idea, making allowance, of course,
for the presence of certain women in
every class who are not averaged. For
