Callot's Loveliest Model
Made of Taffeta and Net.

At the right of the group of
two at the bottom of today's page
is illustrated one of Callot's love-
Hest wide-skirted models. 1t is de-
veloped from yellow taffeta and
net and trimmed with garlands of
Juliet roses, those lovely blossoms
that are both pink and yellow,
growing naturally in France, but
which look extremely artificial be-
cause of their extraordinary color.
Some of the evening dresses
shown by Callot are made up of
series of tabs or panels of embroi-
deries, each independent of the
other. Many of these embroidered
panels have club-shaped ends
showing Persian or Chinese mo.
tifs. The colorings also are from
the Orient. The Persian flower
design rather than the Cashmere
patterns are used. The Chinese
include many landscape as we'll a:
lacquer designs. Often the dres:
is embroidered all over in a Chi

Effect of the Frost
on the Fruit Crop

THE last week in May saw quite
few frosty nights and for good meas
ure May 31st, the ground froze in
many sections of the State enough
81 that a crust could be turned over
without it's falling apart" said State
Horticulturist G.. a. Yeaton on Fri
day. 1.-The fruit blossoms were in
the critical stage where even a
slight frost would cause severe
loss to the fruit growers. This ap-
plies to all kinds Of fruit grown in
the State. Naturally we think of the
orchards first as that is the one mos.
important and having the widest
distribution. but by no means the
only one that a frost will materially
injure. Many times we find the ap-
pies badly russeted at harvest and are
apt to attribute it to spray injury,
when the true cause is a condition
brought about by the frost at bios
som time. Again we find the apples
deformed from the same cause. in
fact anything that weakens the pollen
will either destroy the entire crop. or
greatly reduce the production. The
same thing applies to pears and the
stone fruits.
1.-The small fruits that are growing
| on low land come in for a large share
Of trouble. In the past we have not
given the blueberry the consideration
that it justly deserves from its COM
mercial Importance. Last year the
| BURBERRY crop in Maine was 100000
bushels, selling at 1925 per bushel
and amounting to $500 We have
! sos acres of strawberries which pro-
! duced over $4,000 quarts bringing to
| the growers more than S11S,600. The
raspberry and blackberry crop was
something less. but still bringing into
| growers hands a substantial sum.
! With these figures. showing us some
! thing of the loss that a severe frost
means to the farmers of the State,
one can realize their feelings when
| they go out in the morning and see
| the frost on everything around them"

Governor Baxter
Opposes Sunday
Work on Highways

Governor Baxter recently received
a communication from a Methodist
conference in York county asking
that Sunday work on the State roads
be forbidden, except in cases of en-
Urgency. In the same mail the fol-
lowing letter came from a citizen Of
Massachusetts who favored Sunday
road work.
I'VE noticed something in the pa
pers about the Methodists in Kenne-
bunk complaining about your per-
hitting Sunday work on the roads.
Anyone who has interests in Maine
and. like yourself. who is interested
il. seeing the State develop should, we
believe, have work done on the roads

The State of Maine could treble
her tourist business il the roads were
put in shape. and if the road build
ing was done under contract by re-
putable concerns. and permanent
we'll drained roads put in. 1t would
be much more profitable in every way
and decidedly more economical.
I'VE hope you will pay no atten-
ton to those fanatics in your efforts
to do something to improve the roads,
all Of which decidedly need atten-
ton
ttNtlUo tohSii
this matter up with the highway
authorities. for he is opposed to any
work being done on the roads OF the
State on Sunday. unless in extraor-
binary cases where there is danger
to life and property and Governor
Bakers reply to his Boston critic
was as follows:
Il received your letter Of May 22nd
and appreciate the fact that the peo-
pie of every state are interested in
improving their roads. Maine is no
exception. Regardless of this fact,
however. I do not believe that road
work should be done on Sunday ex-
Cept in case of an actual emergency
III this I differ with you and do not
consider as fanatics the members OF
the Methodist conference who. I un-
derstand, are sending me communi'
cation"
Although the roads in Maine, like
those Of every other state. need to
have work done upon them," says
Governor Baxter, Il am Of the opin-
ion that six days a week are enough
and the seventh should be observed
In accordance with the long stand
ing traditions of New England. The
State Highway commission is in ac-
cord with me and regardless Of hos.
tile criticisms from within or from
without the State there will be nc
work done on Maine roads on Sunday
if I can prevent it. Once our Sunday
is broken into and Sunday work is
pm mitted, there would be no stop
ping place and the day would soor
become like every other day in the
week.
Il believe in the traditions Of New
England and am of Inc opinion thai
our entire country ewes a debt Of
gratitude to the men and women o.
the early days who stood for prin
ciple and for the proper observance
Of the Sabbath"
