Milo Growers
of Valley Are
Going to Meet

In order to make the farmers of
imperial Valley better acquainted
with the work being ~arried on at
! the Meloland Experiment Station
| the extension service is planning a
series of meetings there. The first
of these was one to study the sum-
mer legumcs. The next one on the
program is a meeting of milo maize
growers, which will be held on
Thursday, November 13, at 1880 p.
III.
This meeting should be one of
great interest to growers of the val
ley, inasmuch as Il great deal OF
work is being done at the station
to improve corn growing. Besides
eight varieties which are being
tested against each other to deter
mine the most desirable for Imper-
ial Valley conditions, considerable
time and space are being given to
the study of spacing and time of
planting. The perpetuation of q
pure strain of seed G. a desirable
and even growing variety is of
great importance, as The time is
coming when our corn must be her
vested by machinery if a profit is
to be expected.
Larger yields arc also very inn
portant, and it has been plainly
shown that certain distance be-
tween rows and plants will produce
the maximum yield of corn. What
that distance is the experiment sta
tion is attempting to ascertain, and
some very apparent results can now
be seen.

decorative cuffs, this fashion is
very effective.
Gloves of two-button type which
button about the wrist are seldom
worn and they are selling very
cheaply for this reason. Chamois-
ette gloves are now being made
in the finest Of weaves, so that
one can scarcely distinguish Them
from suedcs which are SO popular
this season. One can purchase sew
eral pairs of chamoise gloves for
the price one would pay for one
p&ir of suede. Chamosse gloves
do not soil as quickly as suede
gloves and they are washable, which
makes them doubiy attractive.
They are made in the latest of
novelty styles and for everyday
wear, at least, are in quite as good
taste as the real suedes.

A germ must be an acrobat
There is no visible sign OF long
skirts returning in the FaI. skirts
are growing shorter, il anything.
Five oat of six women one sees on
Fifth avenue are wearing skirts
tarrying from twelve to fourteen
inches from the sidewalk.
This same shortness is found in
sleeves, in spite of the fact that
most of the leading designers have
been making their fall gowns with
ong, tight fitting sleeves. Women
gho have known the comfort of
hort sleeves. refuse to accept the
uncomfortable long sleeve, either
for street wear or for dress wear.
Many of the best dressed women
in New York are wearing new fall
frocks made with sleeves which are
mere shoulder caps or sleeves which
extend between the shoulder and
the elbow and with these short
sleeved froeks they are wearing
gloves which extend almost to the
elbow.
Generally the fall frock has some
sort OF short cape wrap. Many
of them have the new -eighths
length coats which match the frock.
These ensemble suits are very pop
ular Just now and will be worn un-
til the weather, demands a fur
coat.
As to shoes. vamps are neither
long nor short but are a happy me
dunn which will meet with the ap-
proval of those who like short,
french yamps. as well as those who
prefer longer vamPs. Evening slip

MCCARTHY REARRESTED
Former New York Who Jumped Bail of Sl5,000 a Year Ago Is
 Being Held in New Jersey

Atlantic City, N. J., Oct. 10-De- tcctives from Boston came here last night with extradi.ion papers for Thomas Mccarthy, formerly of New York, who was recently caught in Philadelphia after he had been at liberty for over year, having skip ped a bail bond of $15.000- given on appeal from a state prison sentence of two to four years for conspiracy to eXtort money from Robert L.. Haney ofaPhiladeIphia.
 The original conviction was set aside by tie supreme court and q new trial ordered, but Mccarthy was not to be e~found when the case came up ~aftlfeugh his companions. Hubert Wood, alias Charles J. Mur- phy, Donald Lloyd, alias Lamont, and Edward Neafsey, were again convicted and sent to prison. The National Surety company paid the s15,Ooo )bond last fall. and when they finally caught Mccarthy, asked for their money back, but were re- fused. -.,.
 As the complaining witness, Ha- ney, refused to come back to try Mccarthy over again, and other wit ncsses were not available, the local authorities were about to turn the man loose when Rhc Boston police lodged detainer against him. He is said to be wanted there for con nection with $65,000 confidence game.
