The silhouette is A changed affair and for that reason there is no suggestion of monotony or aameness about any of' the new tfothes or the details of trimming tad decoration. Mot only have the general lines been changed, but none tf the accessories have been permitted to keep their character of a jrear ago. We have entered a new era, led by jfte hand of the Parlatenne experienced . to the art of dress, and reluctant as We may be to Join the procession our presence there seems inevitable. At any rate, there are few who will be able to resist the litre when they behold the new frocks with their graceful charm and artistic appearance 1wiM, #cample of Short Coat, Fur-Trtmmed ;7vf and Worn With Draped Dreaa. JitSpeaklng of colors, they have been need with rare* uerfectlon. It is not only that the brighter and the more illusive colors have been chosen for the season's frocks, but they have been Rut together in such a way that A tfcey brtng oat each other and create • picture not approached for many • long day. Sleeves are long and wide, although . some of them are tightly fitted with portions that branch out and break the stralghtness of the silhouette. Skirts continue to be long, with many .floating panels and as much draping "l§0t the figure can possibly carry. There la a great deal of fur trimming, always in an original manner, not only for coats and suits and street dresses, but for the filmiest and sheerest of frocks as well. There are ribbons and flowers and much silver and Cold. There Is any amount of embroidery done by hand In the most fascinating designs and Intricate atitches. In fact, embroidery has been developed until at times it Is used to cover the whole surface of a dress or • wrap. And this genera! mode has l«d to the materials which are embroidered In their weaving with all* iCver patterns and quilted designs. There is more variety in the day- 'dme dress this season than in any other field of eaAtniaific. Vim couturiers seem to have run wild in making new things and new designs. In carrying oift their own pet Ideas, as it were. At the showing of each collection more beautiful frocks than the last - seemed to appear untU one became bewildered In trying to decide which was the best. Chanel shows dreasea that £re particularly simple and young. The waistlines are never indicated by belts but only by folds of the materials. Contrary to the rule of most of the other houses, Chanel makes the decollette square. One remarks, as elsewhere, a tendency to the fondness for the straight lines. The skirts are sometimes plaited with waistlines remaining plain and untrlmmed so that the skirt of the fnock Is apparently the most Interesting feature. At Paul Caret's the panels 4 ave their places on each side of the gown, giving a fuller and more ample line to the skirt. At times they are placed near the back of the skirt, resulting in a long and decidedly graceful silhouette. Jean Paton shows a number of dresses of olive green veloara or <4 plain bruJe trimmed with dyed lamb's wool. The skirts are straight, adorned with the floating panels, two or more attached at the waist according to taste. One Is surprised to tmd that most of Poiret's skirts are straight of line and narrow of width, contrasting with his usual inclinations. Favors Gray Models. , Lactam Lelong shows a decided feeling for gray models and for the lighter shades of tan. A frock of blacK velvet is gorgeously enriched .y sleeves of silver cloth. A "dress of cream JJUSlln has for a girdle three bourrelets of graded velvet, irom maroon to champagne color in lovely modulations. Jenny persists In the batean line of neck for her afternoon frocks. Serge dresses of*navy blue are straight and simple. Some are trimmed with a conservative band of narrow black braid. One gown of blue serge remains straight and simple with sleeves tightly fitting, the left sleeve surprising one with a wide cuff of white serge. On the right side of this skirt la a panel hanging from the waist and lined with white serge. At Premet's all of the serge frocks are straight and narrow. One model of black serge Is lightened by a collar and wristbands of white crepe, braided and rebraided with crepe of orange awl brilliant green. The majority of the afternoon gowns Lave round necks with large collars which reach over the shoulders like a bertha. One exquisite frock of myrtle green relies for its trimmings upon an embroidered pattern of tiny beads of porcelain In marigold yellow. This Is, In effect, most unusual and charming. At Madeleine et jladelelne there is an attractive gown for the Jeune fllle of beige kasha with an adjustable corsage which fastens In the back with huge buttons. This frock has an ample skirt which reaches well below the ankles. A serge dress has a skirt full and long with a short waist and sleeves tied at the elbow and falling bouffants. At Martial et ArmancTs one sees ai always a number of the transformation dresses. There Is 6ne of white crepe with panels of black crepe which fall from the shoulders and may be removed to show a tightly fitting skirt of white. Another has a removable skirt of black marocaln which la made over green jersey. This can be detached and used as a cape. Many gowns have girdles which form large geisha bows at the back. ^ • > i. '%V- Scarf of Crepe ; At Drecoll'a there la a dress with a iitaKf of crepe that Is draped from the .ahoulders and caught at the waist •with a wide band of fur, falling again jbi a floating panel to the edge of the skirt in back. This panel may be detached and twisted about the neck, {forming a scarf. A gown of black crepe de chine carries no other trimming but a long queue of black fox ^rbich la hong from' the waist down 4me side. * One cannot help bat notice that fleers' skirts are slightly shorter and narrower than the skirts shown else-, where. Charlotte likes very much to combine unusual colons. On an afternoon gown of maroon one finds a broad girdle of scarlet and* panels of thejmme draped over either hip. At> other dress of maroon crepe has huge foil sleeves of raualln, Intricately embroidered with red beada In a quaint, style. Renee remains faithful to the Busai& n blouse, with the waist always full and long. A fanlike panel draped from the ahouldera or from the waist gives more ample lines to the ailhouette, a means which la frequently resorted to rather than the actual widening of the jjkirt At Molyneaux's simplicity domlnates, with skirts that are not long, nor yet excessively short; at about the length, that is, which the American women -as a whole have long favored. The waist at this house, too, is shown by a low girdle. A gown of copper colored velvet is embroidered with steel beads, and has one long sleeve, and the other arm remains bare. Pointed necks for the decollete frocks replace the bateau tine at house. (Prepared by the United Statna Department of Agriculture.* A certain number of farmers have long recognized the superiority of purebred animals over scrubs and grades. By them no exact figures were needed. There are many men, however, who demand definite statements of facts showing that it pays to raise animals of known blbod lines. The United States Department of Agriculture now has statements from a large number of farmers which go to show that the experience of nearly all of more than 500 of these raisers of purebreda is in faver of theae anlmala as profit makers. Purebred* Far Superior. An analysis of the large number of eatimates made by these men shows that they consider purebreds of all kinds more than one-third better or more efficient than common stock. The difference seems to be most marked in the case of dairy cattle, the average dairy farmer In the list questioned considering that the cow of and sold m.v scrubs and bought registered Herefords. They have more than paid for themselves." For the most part, users of purebred sires are reasonably well satisfied with them Individuals. Of 450 users, 380 report general satisfaction, 71 are satisfied except for the desire for still better, and eight are dissatisfied. In general, about 98 per cent of the owners appear to have obtained satisfactory purebreds as sires. The average estimated increase In financial returns "traceable to the use of purebred sires" was 48 per cent. The profitable results are due largely to the fact that such a sire gradually Improves an entire herd or flock. Especially in the case of poultry and hogs, which multiply rapidly, a few anlmala of pure breeding may in a few years become the ancestors of hundreds of purebreds. Men change their ways of doing things for various reasons. The farmers questioned by the department changed to purebred animals as a re- Only Thirty Found of About 90 i 1 Buried m Pennsytvaifi ^ Shaft. • 1 PIT SI8EWN WITH BODIES Purebred Cattle on Pasture Qlngham Corsets.

It la difficult to overestimate the Importance of fans in the evening toir lette. They always have been popular •nd always will be because of their grace and charm. It was In the vain days when Queen Elizabeth reigned that fans reached the peak of their popularity. At that time men as well as women carried them. Later, ia the "Eighteenth century, fans became such important and essential articles of •dress that artists and Jewelers exerted their utmost skill In their decoration. In the fashionable fan of today featb-' •ere and lace are the outstanding features. Birds of every specie are called upon to donate their brilliant ylumage. and even that Is frequently Improved upon. Feathers are being 4yed and treated In so many unique ways that It is negriy (impossible to 4#ter*tlnf from what Mrds they Many curious designs are brought out for tbe autumn. One of the newest * notes Is ostrich dyed In Persian effects, each plume being dipped In five or six different colors. Nine o< tbe largest plumes are not too manj tn form the present-day fan, so witl. each plume featuring, say. five color* there is a blending of 45 mellow shades In a single fan. These are particular ly smart when carried with an evening dress embroidered in cashmere colorings. Handsome Suit Coats. When suit coats are long they entirely cover the frocks under them, a no may be worn separately as topdmrs. The godet flare on the h: »s is a favorite with many houses for this type of coat, which, this season. Is frequently of velyet over a crepe and velvet frock. Sometimes theae costs are made handsome with rich soutachlng. solid embroidery or the material itself worked in fine rucju bands or in eome ether wml pure breeding was 47.8 per cent better than the common cow. The superiority of other kinds of farm stock, according to the investigation, was as follows: Poultry, 40.7 per cent; swine, 88.3; sheep, 87.8; horses, 87J8; beef cattle, 86.8, and goats, 36.8 per cent The average superiority of all kinds of purebred stock over common stock was given as 40.4 per cent. Cows and hens show up better than other kinds of farm animals probably because It Is easier to measure their production and consequently easier to improve them. A New England dairyman attributes his Increased returns from purebred dairy cows to the fact that "more attention Is paid to testing and feeding. Consequently there Is more weeding out of tbe poorer cows, which result! In building up a better herd." A Florida poultryman described how by trapnestlng his flock he Increased the annual egg production per hen from 80 to 150. This was accomplished by selection and feeding without introducing new blood. How do purebreds exeel ordinary stock? Here are the different points In the order of their importance as listed by the Department of Agriculture: Better conformation and quality, better selling price of animals, Increased ' production, stock more salable, more product for the feed, Interest and price (results In greater returns), uniformity (factor In making aales), early maturity, ease of fattening and finishing, better prices of products, Increased vigor and docility and ease of handling.' "My purebred stock," sayt> one farmer "weigh as much at 15 months as my scrubs did at three years--a saving of 21 months in feed and labor, besides getting a better price. They are early maturing, easy keepers and good producers." A dairyman sayse "My cows have more than doubled In milk production. Scrub and grade cows used to give me about 4,000 pounds of milk a year, while my purebreda average -more than 8,000 pounds." Worthy of High Prloe. There appears to be a determination among experienced breeders to get aires of the desired type and breeding even at great trouble and high price, because of their faith In ultimate re-' suits. "They come high," says one breeder, "but are worth what they cost I saw the need of better cattle ^n Virginia. suit of various Influences, but principally as a result of reading, observation, talks with county agents, lessons learned at meetings and Institutes, sales, fairs, shows, home influence, college Instruction, natural liking for good animals, live-stock club work, and various other reasons. "As a boy," said one stockman, MI saw that my father never would make a success with scrubs." MOST DAMAGE TO MACHINERY Water Seeping Into Bearlnga and Farming Coat of Ruet Around Journala la Harmful. e greatest damage to any machine standing In the weather is caused by water seeping into the bearings and forming a coat of rust around the Journals. This rust must be broken when the machine starts operating, and causes much heavier draft and rapid wear because the Journal will not become entirely smooth and bright until the metal has Worn down to the depth of rusting. Take a large noczied on can, draw some of the heavy oil, 600 W Steam Cylinder, from the gearcase of the automobile and fill each harvester bearing full and around the ends. This coats the Journal so that it will scarcely rust at all. Then paint the knives and wooden parts, also knotter bills, sprockets, latches and other bright parts with asphaltum. Next year all you need to do Is squirt kerosene Into the bearings and over the wearing parts to cut out the grease and asphaltum, wipe clean with cotton waste or old rags, oil well and the machine will start off smoothly and easily. Be sure and oil well after using kerosene, as kerosene Is the greatest destroyer of lubificants readily available, and the Journals will run dry enough to cut in a very short time If the operator la not careful. Alfalfa Dislikes "Wet Feet." Alfalfa will not grow well with "wet feet" and tiled land cannot be used to advantage because the roots of the alfalfa plant being perennial will finally fill the tiles.

Terrific Exploelon In Heart of the Workings l« Causa Miners Frew ler Shafts AW Reeeu*'Work.' ' „i* _____ • > Spangler, Pa., Nov. 7.--Between fifty and sixty miners lost their lives In a gas explosion in Reilly mine of the Reilly Coal company near here, according to an official estimate made public here by rescue workers and company officials. Exploration of the workings by trained rescuers Is being continued. Thirty blanched survivors, most of them young men, lay on a double row of cots in the miners' hospital here. They were the known survivors of tue ninety-four miners who went into the mine this jnornlng a fevt minutes before a terrific explosion. At 7:20 o'clock In the morning the explosion occurred in the heart of the mine. As soon as miners from neighboring pits could reach the mine preliminary work of rescue began, and It was supplemented later in the day by trained engineers from the United States bureau of mines in Pittsburgh and the rescue crews of neighboring mines. Tbe rescue men all told the same story aa they came to the surface. They declared that bodies were scattered through the workings for more than 500 feet "The sad part of IV said one sturdy miner, "Is that at least twenty of the victims were within 100 feet of fresh air when they were overcome by the gas." OUSTING OF SULTAN IS 0. K.'D Moslem World Back* Divorce of the Church and State, Declarea Rafet Paaha. Constantinople, Nov. 7.--Rafet Pasha, governor of the "province of Constantinople," says the divorce of the church and state had been made with the full knowledge of the Moslem leaders In all parts of the world. The startling decision of the grand national assembly to dethrone Sul-« tan Mohammed and to separate the dynasty of the Osmans from all temporal powers was not hastily made, but after lengthy deliberations.

' Medriehahafen--Fir ; i by August at LIGHT OMCAU3ES OF CORN ROT « --, * Diseases Found Distributed Throughout the Corn Belt, Dlasases Can Be Greatly RedneSd by Properly Balancing Fertilizing Elementa In Soil and by Using' •elected, Seed. (PrsaarsA by the United Btatae Department of Agriculture.) The aeverity of the root stalk, and ear rota of corn, diseases found to be more or less widely distributed throughout the ; corn belt, can be greatly reduced by properly balancing the fertilizing elements in the soil and by planting selected strains of corn. These conclusions are the result of Investigations carried on by the United States Department of Agriculture, in co-operation With a number of state experiment stations. In the past it was not thought that the corn plant was particularly sensitive to the balance of the various elements in tbe soli, but now the damage caused by these rots is believed to depend iargely upon these conditions and upon climatic factors. Also the nature of the plant itself--what plant breeders call the genetic composition --has much to do with Its susceptibility or resistance to these rots. In the experimental fields self-fertilised strains of corn of many different varieties are showing peculiarities formerly regarded as symptoms of mot. stalk, a' d ear rots, and many strains are being laoluted which, even thouah self-fertilized for many generations, show resistance to the organisms aa* aociated with the rota. Reducing the losses from these rots Is a complex problem, requiring much more investigation. At present the department can go little farther than to say that primarily it involves a careful consideration %t environment, soil fertility, and the nature ol tbe particular strain of corn. ALFALFA PASTURE FOR HOGS * There Is No Form of Grass That Pi*, duoes Gain at Such Low Cost aa Doea This Legume. Alfalfa paature should be found eri every farm where hogs are kept. There is no form of pasture that produces the gain at such a low cost as doea alfalfa. One acre of alfalfa will produce, when fed with grain equaling 1 per cent to 2 per cent of the llVe weight, between five and six hundred pounds of pork with very little or no labor cost outside of the first cost of seeding. Mature sows tbln In flesh have often gained as high as one-haif pousd per day on alfalfa alone. ? Fall Seeding of Lawns. • \ Many grasses reach maturity In the early fall and re-seed themselves where they stand, indicating that the fall Is their natural seed time. This seems to bold good for lawn grasses as well as for other lands and fine lawns are frequeai% aatabllshed by (tell seeding. Follows Ancient German Superstition Which Came Down ^ From Heathen Times. jBerlin.--The mother of an illegltt* mate child, following an ancient German superstition which has come down from heathen times, deliberately buried her baby alive near Oppeln, Upper Silesia, recently. Those bellevlng In the old superstition hold It is no crime to do away with a child born out of wedlock, provided the baby Is buried by moonlight in a cemetery. The superstition provides, however, that the shadow of a cross, thrown by the moon, must fall over the body of the Infant as It Is lowered alive Into Carried Out the Anolent Rita of Burial.
