Paris, Nov. 2.--The French cuutu riers have many points of difference" but in two respects they all think as one:
 [ 1, All stress the long straight line
 2. All grant veiyet the star role in the fashion pageant
 Tho velvet of this season is SO soft and supple that it may he used for any type of costume. and it comes in subtle colors that may be obtained in no other fabric.
 Changcablc velyets arc new and very fascinating, and they cry out and ask to be draped. Figured yclvets come in very rich eolors and eompli- cated designs, and hence arc used for tho simplest type of straightlino frocks, Or are comlin, l with a gold tissue cloth or with plain colors.
 These hgured yelvets arc used not only for gowns, but for coats and for Things for coats. and particularly for smart little tacauettes 10 hc worn with plain frocks, or straightline hlouses combined with fnr.
 In evening froeks, velvet is pastel or in vivid tones is very smart, and it is most frequently combined with fur--the richer the fur the better. Naturally ermine is the ideal comple- mont of black velvet, but fox and

AMERICAN INDIAN
 STAGING COMEBACK
Redskins Are Beating Death Rate Each Year and Are Growing Fast

Washington, D.'C., Nov. 2.-Lik' his old friend, the buffalo, tho American Indian is making q come. back. Figures recently announced by the Bureau of Indian Affairs show cur American Indian population '' now Sf4.803, gain Of ll44 ovel last year
 Not only last year, but for thirty years, the rcdmen have steadily teen gaining on their death rate, says a bulletin from the Washington n. C.. headquarters of the National Geographic society.
 Today there are six Indians per square mile on reservations which comprise an area not much smaller than that Of all New England. Ac- cordins to the best estimates avail able there Was an average Of only one Indian for every three square mics when white people first came 10 American shores. If only two thirds of the United States were oc- cupied by red skins al the present reservation population rate. there would be 12,O00. .000 Indians in ihc United States today.
 Aboriginal Population small.
 "Massasoit gave the Pilgrim fath- CTS corn, but the fact is that Mas sasoit and his kith and kin lived for the most part by product of the chase. Deer. buffalo, bear and rab- hit were their pork and beef. and berries and nuts their potatoes. Even verdant America could not support an intense population living in this fashion. The total Indian popula- ton at the time Columbus landed al San Salvador is set at about SAG GGn, IT all the tribes, from the Pa ciir 10 th" Atlantic, and from the Gulf to tho Great Lakes had assem- hlcd at cue great meeting. they would have made up community rot so .arro as Detroit and only q uw tho'Sdod greater than ClCvo- land or Boston,
 White mems guns decinated somc tribes, diseases, dissipation. and cpi- denies which came with the white men spread death more surely. Smallpox epidemics swept through the western tribes three times be- tween l7St and 1887 with more fatal results than tho influence plague Of 1918. A peculiar fever killed 70,0oo Indians in California and Oregon in enc year. By 1880 the Indian popu- lation had been reduced 10 a56,127, therefore the present population rep ,esents an increase Of nearly 100. .0Oo in 30 years.
 Richest Group nn Earth.
 One American Indian tribe today is tho richest people on the face Of tho earth, Beneath the lands Of the psaEe Indian tribe in Oklahoma oil was discovered, Their wells produrc s5o. .ooo.

DAIRY
POINTS
KEEP YOUNG HEIFER GROWING
Winter Rations for Animal Important
.. II Profitable Milk Producer
ls Expected.

The dairy heifer, since she is for
the present unproductive, is likely TO
be neglected after the pasture season
is ended. To keep the young stock
growing normally during the winter
months the department of dairy hus-
bandry Of the Missouri College Of Ag-
riculture suggests the following ra-
lions:
If sllage and clover or alfalfa hay
are available, feed from two to FIVE
pounds Of corn or other farm-grown
grains available, depending upon the
age Of the animals. Heifers close to
calying time can profitably be fed
somewhat larger quantities of grain.
If silage is available but no clover
or alfalfa hay. a good ration would
consist of sllage and fodder or mixed
hay with a grain mixture consisting
Of equal parts Of corn and llnseed
meal. Cottonseed meal or gluten feed
may be fed in place of linseed meal.
Where clover or alfalfa hay is fed
alone dairy heifers win do fairly well
