THIS SPRING THE
WOMEN TO LOOK
VERY ALLURINC

"This Spring, women can look their
Most alluringly feminine" says Mrs
johnson, Fashion Department Head
Of Montgomery Ward. 81 can't be
too enthusiastic about the new fash
IONS we've just received"
In dresses, the "hard" sophisticated
looks is passe the tiny-waisted,
@hour-glass" effect (Which so few of
ws managed to achieve) has gone.
American women come into their own
with the "longer torso" silhouette,
originally created by Mainbocher, an
American designer with American
ideas! Enthusiastically new, the longer
torso silhouette gives you a young,
1.-THE look, with emphasis on your fig
Nre from bustline to hipline. Some
Of the new longer torso styles have
pockets placed far down on the hips,
which gives longer-waisted look, but
the waistl1ne stays at it's normal To-
cation.
Pockets abound on all the new
dresses on jackets, on bodices, on
skirts. Rows of buttons march gaily
ever the new tailored styls, in trend
with the military influence inspired
by Paris.
There's nothing like snowy white
lingerie touches to lift you into
Spring. Mrs. johnson says that crisp
lingerie flattery is being used this
Spring more than ever before.
Practical, budget-minded women
will be delighted with the various en-
sembles available. Jackets, redin-
gotes, and boleros appear over many
dresses, making them double duty"
frocks for street or afternoon wear.
Yor example, one ensemble has a long
dark coat tsat can be worn over other
dresses too.
Hats are frivilously feminine . F. yet
Sanel For one thing, they sit firmly
On the head. Secondly, there are
ne of the towering atrocities men
have objected to (and rightly SOY in
recent years. Yards Of yelling, flow
ers galore, and ribbon pompoms make
Ryou feel dixie story book heroine!
sTiny calots mothered in colorful bios
SONS are seen everywhere. Sailors
make fashion headlines with higher
crowns and a "softer" look. A new
Flemish sailor with wide, upturned
brim is indescribably youthful and
dattering. The young look angelic

Caring for Colt

A little attention given to the feet
of colts and young horses may make
a difference in the value of the horse
when ready to work. When colts
feet are allowed to become uneven
and crooked, it is almost sure to af-
feet the feet and legs permanently.
Keeping the feet trimmed and
shaped up properly allows normal
development of the legs and pre-
vents defects in the feet and legs.
Poorly shaped feet and crooked legs
that have resulted from neglect can
be corrected in some measure by
proper trimming of the feet.

ment of grain are common forms
of damage.
Nitrogen, phosphorus and potash
are all vital, but each must contrib
ute its benefits in cooperation with
the others. Some land requires more
of one fertilizer element than an
other. The average farmer can de-
termine the needs of his soil by con-
sultation with his county agent or
agronomists of his state college or
experiment station. They are
equipped to make specific sugges-
tons concerning officially recon-
mended fertilizer analyses adapted
to various soils and crops"
