used the silver Is always the whitest
and the gold deep yellow. The
damask pattern resembles that often
seen in table linens or tapestry bro
cades.
Velvet on Georgette Grounds.
Fewer dresses of crepe georgette are
noted, though all the big houses are
showing special qualities in that cloth
which have tendency toward heavier
effects. Redmond's Crepe Marquise
and Crepe Jersey are of the weight
approximating georgette crepe and
seem to be very popular. These are
also more durable than georgette
crepe.
An important feature this winter Is
the revival of velvet brocades on chif.
fon and georgette crepe grounds.
These come in both self-tones and
varicolors. An elaborate pattern Is
known as Main de SINCE.
A very notable success Of Remond's
is Crepe Byzantine. This was intro
duced by Jean Patou and Is a heavy,
double-faced. satin crepe one meter
wide.
Another attraction from this mantr'
facturers line is Velours Flamme, an
exquisite warp printed silk velvet In
colOrings, known as Clair de Lune-
opalescent blues and greens-and also
in orchid and alabaster blue combina-
tions. This novelty Is being especially
featured by Gallot Soeurs. In faille
and grosgrain weaves bengaline and
veloutine are much in favor.
Perhaps no other manufacturer Of
fabrics in France is more generally
represented at the big dressmaking
houses than Rodier, who is so famous
as creator of galloons and novelty
cotton and wool dress goods.
Starting in with the kasha cloths In
plain and mixed colOrings. there are
the later novelties, such as kashadou,
kashadrap, kashaduvetyne, chineka-
sha, ziblekasha and indokasha. All
Of these are notable successes. being
used by Jeanne Lanvin, Paquin, CallOt
Soeurs, Cheruit, Jenny, Renee and
other equally important houses.
Fancy Stripe Patterns.
The Smyrna patterns shown by Ro-
dier are also widely used and are very
beautiful. One particularly successful
series is called poplavella. >-Tchinel-
laine is shown In both plain and fancy
stripe patterns.
Another popular vogue Is marokcl-
laine. This is particularly used for
separate coats and comes in fancy
stripes and in embroidered designs. A
very effective material for evening
wraps Is Velours Jaspellor, Smyrna
velours, intermixed with gold threads.
Another velOurs Is called Payellalns
Cachemire. This Is an extreme novel
ty, the design of which is outstanding
and in opposing color. The outstanding
design Is often ombre, or clouded, and Is
particularly lovely when used for sep
arate coats.
A particularly striking fabric is
poplin carre, the big two-color square
in panels Of no centimeters long.
This is cleverly used by Cheruit, Cal
lot Soeurs, Premet. Martial ct Armand,
| as well as other designers.
Among extreme novelties for trim.

is now in full swing and every day
brings confirmation of the survival of
the fittest.
Important features include the re-
tanning of the slim-line silhouette, In
spite Of the profuse use Of circular
flounces and godets. This circular
movement is achieved in various ways.
Sometimes the flounce is placed diago-
nally on a model; sometimes 1t Is
straight, again 1t starts at the hips or
at the waistline. Then, too, q fiounce
may begin at the normal waistline and
continue in a spiral around the skirt
to the hem. But whatever the nature
Of the flounce, the back Of the dress
invariably remains plain and straight.
An interesting model, which Philippe
ct CASTOR have named Van Houten, has
as it's novel feature shaped volants
which begin at the yoke and descend
to the hem Of the skirt. Even the col
lar and cuffs carry out the circular
movement. The dress is a one-piece
affair of brown cloth and the fur also
Is brown.
One of Renee's circular founce
coats, accompanying a matching dress.
and thereby forming the popular three
piece costume. Is in the limelight.
FIounees at One Side Only.
While Paquin and Worth use con-
tinuous founces at the edge Of their
coats, Renee varies the idea by having
the fiounces at one side only, and let
ting them end in q broad panel band
Of fur.
Another costume Is a Martial ct Ar
mand model, which keeps the slender
lines even while carrying a suggestion
Of the godet. Au Bois is the name Of
this dress, which Is developed in We
lours de Smyrne, the carpet woven
cloth, in the new elephant gray shade
combined with lacquer red and gold.
Another model from this house,
which shows an interesting movement
Of the skirt, is developed from man.
DARN brown MORE, with brown and
gold embroidery. The skirt has an
overtunic which Is quite circular at the
front, but shortens toward the back.
The embroidery appears in girdle-
like band around the bottom Of the
waist and the long, tight sleeves.
Miller Soeurs show many new ideas
In the arrangement Of founces. One
Of their newest models Is cut on
straight lines except for the founce,
which is let in by slashing the fabric
and reversing the fiounce to turn back
on itself. Another model from this
house shows the skirt wrapping the
figure, but reverses at the front to
form a sort Of cascading fiounce. Both
Of these models are extremely clever
and entirely original.
Everywhere one sees very marked
revival Of metal ,brocades. The ten
dency, however, is to use single tone
effects rather than the brilliant color
ings Of the previous seasons. There
are fewer marked patterns and more
Of the shi,nmering moire effects with
the color shot through the background.
The leading demand seems to be for
rose and green, shot with silver,
though copper-colored effects in gold
brocades are much liked. The combi-
nation Of copper tone metal lace and
gold brocade Is often seen. Frequent

New Hog House Plans Aid In Placing
Windows to Best ADVANTAGE

New Hog House Plans Aid In Placing
Windows to Best Advantage.
1t is important that the windows
In hog houses be so placed that the
sun will shine in the pens at farrowing
time, which is generally in the early
spring when the weather is still raw
and cold. It really costs no more to
place the windows where sunlight can
be admitted than it does to place them
so that only a little sunlight strikes
the floor at that time Of year. In this
connection H. B. White, who is in
charge Of the farm buildings section,
University of Minnesota, says:
ION many farms of Minnesota the
arrangement of the farmstead is such
that it is necessary to stand the hog
house east and west. In such cases
it is desirable to place the windows
so that the sunlight will fall on the
nest at farrowing time. On December
% the sun is farthest south and the
sunlight falls farther to the north
than the height of the window.
"Just where to locate windows in a
south wall of half monitor roof build
ings or in the south side of gable roof
is shown in plan No. 233, prepared
by the division of agricultural engi-
neering, University of Minnesota. The
plan shows the proper height for top
of windows for the different sections
Of Minnesota and for the months Of
December, January, February, March,
April and May Rules and examples
are given so that anyone planning to
build an up-to-date hog house can be
sure of placing the windows so the
sunlight will fall on the nest at far
rowing time. The plan includes a
map Of Minnesota so that the latitude
for any part Of the state is shown.
although the half monitor hog
house and the roof, windows are not
very highly recommended for north
ern Minnesota, when such building
is erected, the windows should be
properly placed and the plan No. 233
is very helpful in determining their
proper height. Copies may be secured

Representative James 7. Begg, re-
publican, Ohio, who was right hand
man to Representative Florian Lam
