Hobble Skirt Comes Hobbling Back Again

With women's styles, day by day, in every way g0wing simpler and more sensible, who'd have thought there was a chance for the hobble skirt to stage a comeback"
 And yet, here it is.
 This new and charming spring model for street wear is hobbled to an extent that would have been fash ionable in 1910,
 If you want one, it's an easy mat ter to acquire it-tlst turn last years skirt upside down and attack a blouse to it,
 Of course women say they won't wear such ridiculous things-but watch them.

that it is not a problem merely

prizes, q 365 rat-tails were count

Poultry Producers Organized
Rapidly.

A series of meetings is now be-
ing held in various parts of the
State for the purpose of giving
information about the proposed
Virginia Poultry Producers, Co.
operative Association. Within
the next three months it is the
intenting OF those interested in
promotion the organization to
hold meetings, in PRACTICAL y
every county in the State. at
least in those counties in which
egg production is an important
part of the agriculture activity.
The attendance at recent meet
ings has been very good and
there is no doubt but what the
egg producers are deeply inter.
ested in a plan that offers a bet
Ter way of marketing their eggs
90 that better prices can be OBJ
tanned. Under the system now
in general uses there is no in
centive to I producer to take
special care of the eggs as they
get the same price regardless of
the quality. Many producers
have fully realized their landi-
cap under such q 81 stem and are
now shipping direct 10 the larger
markets where their eggs are
bought and paid according to
1nolifs.
