Dungarees haven't exactly hit
the dust-mOst young people still
wear them for chOres-but sOphis-
ticated young mOdeTns do not wear
dungarees to a party these days.
Even with cool breeZes biting the
knees, the choice is Bermuda
shorts for play and lounging
around the home. Matador pants
are popular for at-home wear, too.
but if one has a choice usually the
shorts win out.
A new style note with the shorts
is gaily cOlOFed socks worn to the
knees. These are circular striped
in bright cOlOrs as a rule. One Con
necticut girl knitted socks and
matching sweater Of orange, white
and black in a wide stripe to COM
plement charcoal shorts and black
cardigan sweater Of a big-stitch
knit.
Some stores are showing the
socks in many combinations. There
is a choice Of shocking pink, navy
blue and white, fun for blue shorts;
white and red stripes for gray fan
mel shorts. Knit your own and
choose cOlOrs you like.
Sleepwear takes on a Far East
efn look with nightgOwns of cot
ton challis in handsome Oriental
designs. The Chinese tunic with
trousers is popular for lounging.
Even though the fashionable sill
hOuette for party wear is supposed
to be the sheath. most girls still
prefer the feminine crinOline worn
with full skirts. The boys are sup
posed to be charmed by the rustic
of these romantic-type dresses,
one reason young mOderns will not
be pried loose from them.
The mailman is happy again
what with the girls decorating en-
velOpes with humorous notatiOns

Winterize Poultry
Houses Now

Hens will lay a few more eggs
this winter if poultrymen check the
laying house now and seal up some
of the leaks, advises George Vapaa,
county agricultural extension agent
at Dover.
Be sure to take q good look at
the foundation ard siding, Vapaa
cautions. Seal all hoses with mortar
or siding paper. Roof repairs now
will save you a lot of trouble later
on when it's too cold and wet for
this work.
One of the worst offenders for
cold and drafts are cracks and
crevices around windows and doors,
Vapaa reminds. It's cold enough to
be able to ind them nOw-but not
so cold that putty and other filler
compounds aren't easy to work.

State Fruit Growers
Have New Service

Delaware apple growers were the
first in the nation to try a new
chemical leaf analysis service
made available commercially this
year by a Cleveland concern, re-
ports DR.. Chester Hitz Of the de-
partment Of horticulture at the Unit
versity Of Delaware.
Leaf samples from about 21 apple
orchards we're sent to the Cleve-
land concern, he says.
From the results, the State Col
lege. of Agriculture will be able to
make iGrIiividual fertilizer recon-
mendatiOns to these OTchardists for
lext year that will pinpOint the fer
tilizer needs Of their trees more
closely than ever possible before,
DR.. Hitz points out. He says that
leaf analyses made by the CleVe-
land concern by what is known as
the "spectOgraphic" method show
whether there is enough or too
much Of (nine) different plant
food elements in the particular
block Of trees from which each leaf
sample is taken. The College of
Agriculture men, with their on
the-spot knowledge of actual soil
and management practices at each
particular orchard. are then able
to pinpOint exact fertilizer recon-
mendatiOns. he says.
Charge made for the service by
the Cleveland concern is $40 per
sample. The leaf samples are col
lected in July.
DR.. Hitz looks for more Del
aware fruit growers to make use
Of this new fertilizer yardstick"
in 1856 and says that nurserymen
and vegetable growers may also
be trying a little "quick-sampling
Of leaves when they get plant
sickness symptoms that are hard
to diagnose otherwise. Chemical
leaf analysis may prove particu-
laTly helpful to asparagus grow
ers, he thinks.
