BOSTON, August 20 (R.-Page "
Shaw, Inc, candy manufacturers. today
fled a voluntary petition in bankruptcy
in the Federal Court here. Otis e.
Durham, president Of the firm, with
II other persons, was indicted last May
on charges growing out of alleged ir-

The bankruptcy petition showed the
firms liabilities would exceed $500, 900
and that its assets totaled about
5000 900.
The action was in accordance with a
vote of stockholders yesterday. Voting
in the meeting were Durham and Henry
j. Shaw, treasurer.

by . State court last June, after q

FARM REPORT HITS
VIRGINIA GROWERS
August Price Figures Prove
Discouraging to State
Apple 0rchardlstS.
BY the Associated Press.

RICHMOND, Va, August 20.-The
August report on farm prices issued by
the United States Department of Agri-
culture is not encouraging to Virginia
apple-growers, whose prospects have
been estimated by the Federal-State
Crop Reporting Service to be mil
lion barrels under last years production.
A supply of apples for the Nation
1000, 900 bushels in excess of last year,
is forecast by the Department of Agri-
culture for total of 100000 900 bushels.
Decreases in the North Central and
South Atlantic States, says the report,
have been more than offset by increased
production in the North Atlantic and
Far Western States.
With special reference TO Virginia,
the report says that here, where prices
appear to depend largely on the Ma
tional and local supply, it would seem
that the considerably reduced produc-
ton would sustain prices above last
years level. But since business is sub
normal" the report points out, "the
full influence of reduced local supplies
may not materialize. The shortage is
likely to be reflected more toward the
end of the I930-3I season than in the
next few months"
For the country as whole, the re-
port says, the larger apple crop Is likely
to bring a smaller income than. last
years because of the lower level Of
food prices In general and because Of
the reduced purchasing power of Nnpn-
Gumers in this country ana anros

NEW YORK, August 2o.--Under the

DROP IN FARMERS
INCOME is FORECAST
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, August 20.-On the
basis Of the latest official forecasts and
price levels, Standard Statistics Co.
tentatively estimates that the 1880 agri-
cultural income will be about $4,000
100000, or IL per cent below the pre-
vious year.
While stating that sufficient data is
available to clearly indicate farm wealth
for 1880 will be we'll below the previous
year, the statistical organization states
1t will not be as severe as in the major
depression of 1921, when gross value
of farm products slumped $1,000, 600.
and that consideration must be given
to increased purchasing power of the
farm dollar resulting from the slump
in non-agricultural commodities. Crop
conditions are unusually spotty because
Of the drought, and while reduced val
ues in some will adversely affect trade
in their reducing regions, the favorable
trend of fruit and vegetable crops should
be somewhat q palliative factor to a
certain degree.

Flower Scents Latest
Fashion in Perfumes

Now that every one is striving to
keep pace with the mode and appear
ladylike, Economically modern, quaint
ly smart. or demurely elegant, the ex-
otto types of perfumes just will not
serve.
Unquestionably the ankle-Iength de-
mureness of the net gown with tiny
puff sleeves calls for a demure, deli
cate fragrance. The magnificent opera
gowns of velvet with its attendant
blaze of imitation or real diamonds
requires a harmonizing scent. SINH
larly the feminine formal suit, with
its soft. frilled blouse of satin or
crepe, needs a subtle feminine odor.
The skilled simplicity of the more
elegant sports mode exacts a CORE
spending sweet odor.
What shall these perfumes be?
Floral fragrances and bouquet odors.
With the new silhouette these light
oral scents and sweet bouquets create
an allure and further the effect of
femininity. They need not be entirely
unsophisticated. as the newer odeurs
offered by the best perfumers attest.

on Spring Coats
Shoulder Cape Prominent;
Galyak Takes Lead as
Fashionable Fur.

The spring coat may be depended
on to be tricky about the neckine.
The great majority have collars en-
larged TO cape proportions. The coat
with shoulder cape is the coat of the
year. Not every one can wear II.
however. 1t is the choice Of the slen-
der, the wide shoulder line produced
by the cape being an unfortunate one
for other figures, says a fashion
writer in the Kansas City STAR
Some coats go so far as to have
two capes and 1t is an almost general
rule that where there is no cape
there are revers or some soft collar
drapery.
Women, having become so accus-
toned to hugging their coats about
them, still retain preference for the
one-sided or wrap around type. The
type is not. however. insistent
Galyak takes the lead as the spring
fur. 1t is used in black. beige, egg
shell. gray-whlte and usually in rath-
er wide fiat bands on the edge of the
capes in question. Egg shell lapin is
another approved fur trimming. while,
Of course, fox is too flattering to be
released from service.
There are coats galore that are not
fur trimmed, but even SO 1t is the
fur-trimmed models which are charac-
teristic. Black and all shades of
blue are the color preferences. with,
of course. browns, grays. greens and
reds in much less proportion. Tweed
remains a tremendous factor in spring
styles for both town and country
wear. Shark skin Is one of the new

fabrics and a revival of covert one of
the talking points. Soft. novelty
woolens remain definitely in the style
picture.
Relatively little response to the
velveteen separate coat is felt. A
generous employment of pleats is be-
coming more and more a feature in
the development of the seasons fash
ions. Suits are no exception to the
new ruling that pleats are again de-
sirable. Not content with introduc-
ing circular peplums. Lelong spon.
sored ruffled ones, and pleated ruffles
are no longer barred from the domain
of the custom tailor. -
The subtly suggested high waistline
is cleyerly done this spring. One may
have ones waistline at different lev
els, depending on the point of view
from which the costume is seen. This
is also true of capes. A suit, or coat
may have a cape as viewed from the
back. or a cape as seen from the
side Capes are so often divided or
made to disappear into seams that one
is further fascinated by them.
