The suit has somewhat changed its
character, in that, II 1t is a suit. II is
SO strictly plain. But then there has
come into being this new thing called
the costume suit, over which American
designers are going quite mad. They
are doing marvellous designing and
seem to have been inspired by this new
turn In the affairs Of street clothes.
Some Of the costume suits are pro-
vided with capes, either long or short.

transplanting leads to branching or
knotty roots when they mature.
Each beet "seed" Is really fruit

Beets may be planted between rows
of corn and yield successfully as they
will do better for the shade In mid
summer and do not take enough food
from the soil to interfere with the
corn.
The combination of a slow-growing
and q fast-growing crop In the garden
is good one to keep in mind, be-
cause they can usually be companion
crops without harm to either, the slow
growers taking the nourishment from
the soil slowly and in such small
quantity the fast growers are not in

The beet Is a most obliging vege-

any fresh manure in the soil to do Its
best but only well-decayed manure or
compost.
Early beets are most valued as
greens, the roots being more esteemed
later In the season or even In the fall
and winter. II 1t Is desired to get an
early crop of beets for greens they

DRAIN MUCK AND PEAT LAND
Area Should First Be Drained by
System Of Open bitches to Per-
nit Land to Settle.

When muck and peat land. Is to be
drained by tile the area should first be
drained by system Of open bitches.
according to the bureau of public
roads, United States Department of
Agriculture. Such soils settle or sub.
side considerably after drainage and
tend to disturb the grade or slope of
the tile line. After such soils have
been drained for year or so they be.
come compact enough to permit the
installation Of tile drains. Usually the
best method, says the bureau, Is to
dig the bitches where the tile Is to be
laid later. and after the tile is laid
and the ditch back-filled there will be
nothing to interfere with cultivation.

The American woman does not wait
20 begin to display her fresh. new
spring frocks and suits; already she Is
beginning to appear In seasonable
clothes, which have only Just been
turned out by those who create these
things with young enthusiasm eacn
year.
But, hidden away In the corners Of
shops and studios, there are more and
more lovely things waiting for what
are known technically as "the exclu-
sive." They are not too different from
the styles Of last year, observes fash
lon writer In the New York Times, but
they are sufficiently changed to have
an unInistakable newness Of thrill
about them.
The discussion and the game Of short
skirts versus long ones goes merrily
ON. No one can tell exactly what
lengths they are going to be, or are,
for that matter. At one fashion show
ing you will see skirts that cover the
ankles and at the next you will see
them rising to the knees. The whole
performance leaves you with sense
OF bewilderment anu a feeling that
there Is nothing reliable In this direc-
tion upon which to base your theories
of good style. However, 1t leaves a
golden advantage for women to wear
their skirts at exactly the lengths they
wish and to look their best In the style
that best suits them
AS for sleeves-well, as far as eve
ming gowns are concerned, there are
none whatever. There are merely APP
ertures where the sleeves should be,
and, in the dresses for the new sea-
son, these armholes become more and
more severe and squared Off. They
ore strangely becoming in spite Of their
severity, even though one might not
expect them TO be so. 1t Is fashion
that you become used to and find that
your original fears against 1t were
founded upon sand.
In one of the very latest evening
gowns there were these plain, carved
out armholes. into which faring
sleeves made of one layer Of tulle were
set. On the ends Of the sleeves three
wide bands of crystal bead en-
broidGry were set so that they weight
ed the layer Of nothingness in
the most delicate, exquisite fashion.
or sashes and girdles there are any
number, and they are all surprisingly
beautiful, for, along with the general
simplicity Of all Of the more formal
dresses, there goes this stunning op-
portunity to make the belt tell the
whole story. When the dress Is of
some dull or indefinite color, then the
waistline will, invariably, show some
sparkling bit OF color that makes the
design thrilling thing.
Unadorned Frocks.
Simplicity Is word that has been
used overtime in connection with the
newer styles, but really that ideal
(even though we can find no better
word) has reached the height of its
expression in the newer gowns. They
are all matters of line and color and

SOME HABITS OF
BARBERRY SHRUB

Of Eradicating II.
SCATERS BLACK STEM RUST
Plant 10 Most Persistent and to Make
Destruction Complete Digging
Must Be Thorouoh-Root
System Extensive.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
The Office Of cereal Investigations
Of bureau Of plant industry of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture, is making study Of the habits
Of the common barberry with view
Of improving the methods of eradicat-
Ing the shrub. AS is well known, the
common barberry spreads black stem
rust Of wheat, oats, barley and rye.
In the past four years, during which
a systematic program OF eradicating
the common barberry has been In
progress In the 13 North Central
states, digging has been practically
the only method employed. The ex-
perience Of these years has shown
that the shrub is most persistent
plant, and that, to be effective, Dig
ging must be most thorough.
Extensive Root System.
The root system Of the common bar
berry is extensive. The roots Of bush
four or five feet tall may penetrate
the soil to depth Of three to five
feet and spread laterally an equal
distance. In larger bushes the root
spread Is considerably greater. The
root system Of the plant varies some
what with the kind Of soil. In wood
lands where layer Of rich humus
soil caps more compact and less
rich stratum Of soil, the roots are
chiefly confined to the humus layer.
but extend laterally considerable dis
tances. On the other hand. In a type
Of soil which is fairly uniform at its
various levels the root system Is
more deep-rooted, and frequently less
extensive In It's lateral spread. A
rather constant character of the bar
berry root system, however, Is the
occurrence of at least a few relative
ly superficial lateral roots running a
few inches beneath the soil surface.
This holds true even In those bushes
which have deeply penetrating roots.
It Is chiefly from such laterals that
sprouts originate following digging.
Hence, precautions need to be taken
IN digging to follow out along these
surface roots and to remove all Of
them from the soil.
Reserve Food Material.
The roots Of the barberry store
within them large quantities Of re-
serve food material. This enables
them to send up sprouts readily when
the tops are cut at the ground line.
Moreover, portion of root left In
the ground may have sufficient re-
