Every model that is designed by hanel bears the hallmark of dlstinc- ; >n. She ignores rumors of possiblt ndencles and quietly continues mak- •g gowns on her own aharacterlstic !"ies, and these are invariably among he most sought after on the continent. Whether she makes a simple sports suit with straight workmanl'ke breeches tinder the neat wrap-over skirt, or a georgette crepe coat for afternoon wear that is covered with .an elaborate embroidery of tiny steel beads. C&anel always gives that indescribable chic to every model that is typical ot her house. Beauty Is the leitmotif of the whole collection, yet the models are always practical. Robes flu aoir are either elaborate or quite simple. Some are developed In metal lama with heavy Incrustations of rich metal lace, while others are of simplest georgette or chiffon, depending merely 06 the charm of their cut, beauty of coloring and the simple grace of various little scarves, tied shoulder straps and floating draperies. Lace is very much used for evening gowns tn black, beige, green and in other colors, and it plays a considerable part In this section of the collection. Pearl and bead fringes are used, strings six to eight inches in length swaying spirally round a tunic and shorter ones covering a sklrt^n dose serried rows. The jumper dress occupies Its tilOal pre-eminent place. Chanel uses shades of blue crepella and crepe de chine to carry It out with an effect of chic simplicity. Perhaps the most delightful Jumper suit In the whole collection Is made in bols de rose waterproof crepe de chine with steel runners fastening the pockets and a rovers decolletage which is at the side Instead of the center front. Abandons 8leeveless Gown. Like other housed, Chanel baa abandoned the sleeveless gown for daytime this season. Instead this shows short sleeves some five or six inches long, some of them finished with hsndkerchief ties, some of them plain. Full-length sleeves outnumber all other types and they are generally fitted, although some of them widen just the tiniest bit toward the wrist Attractive tailored suits also play an important part In the collection. Black-and-white checked cheviot Is used for one of these which has a white pique waistcoat that fastens down the side. Another model Is In navy blue kasha with narrow box plaits in solid panels at the back and front of both coat and skirt. A white blouse accompanies tills model. A brown fancy check tweed suit has twoinch borders of two shades of darker brown at the hem of both roat and skirt. With It Is worn a plain sweater of natural Jersey clotb hound with the tweed st tha neck and buttoning down a short slit at one side. - Tweed, kasha and jersey are Chanel's favorite materials for golfing suits. She makes thein with practical wrap-over skirts or with a few Inverted plaits at the sides, and approximates the slim silhouette although at the same time giving plenty of room for movement. This season she Is again using the short scarves that such a striking finish to the jumper and skirt costume that la worn for golf or morning wear. Crepella Is the material which forms the basis of the collection. In black It is fashioned info simple little street frocks which have a distinct circular movement to the apron front of the skirt, discreet rows of buttons hers and there, and occasionally a shoulder cape. Although she uses a great deal of foulard, Chanel Is fully awake to the praetieul and becoming qualities of the Chinese tub silk that is so much used for men's shirts. Black and Whlta Used. Black-and-white effects are noteworthy. Once more Chanel makes straight sack jackets to match printed gowns. She also has a black-andwhite sack coat to wear with a plain black georgette crepe gown adorned with much fine plaiting. Red is ss great a favorite with Chanel as it was last season. She shows an amusing red foulard gown with black spots It at Irregular.

When his mother, Mrs. B. H. Crandall, came to the city, she left Leroy In charge of the home and of his slater, Viola, six, and his twin brothers, Lloyd and Floyd, three. Upon reaching here, Mrs. Crandall telephoned Leroy and was told the children are "having lots of fun." Next Mrs. Crandall beard a scream. "The whole kitchen Is on fire," came next as the receiver dropped from Laroy's hand. Rushing to her home in an automobile, Mrs. Cfafodall found that Leroy had carried the younger children to safety, pulled down and trampled clothing which caught fire behind a kitchen stove and was throwing water on the blazing wood box "I wag scared but I wanted to help all I could," the boy said. I I I li I 11 I 11 I 11 | | II M U ni Modish Dress Showing the Knee Flare to tha Skirt. while the corsage Is divided by narrow horizontal bands of piping some three inches apart. CHanel shows her usual genius for coats, though she Is making cat** as well, both for day and evening wear, especially the short shoulder variety for daytime. The coats fit slightly at the waist and flare just a little in the skirt. Wide bands of dyed feathers trim the evening wraps this year. Chanel still uses soma of the shirred gathering tha: she made so popular nearly a year ago. It is equally effective in velvet and georgette. Tbe Jenny collection this season Includes many of the little Parisian touches for which this designer has always been noted. She retains tbe slim, straight line with very little fullness, showing short skirts fully 16 inches off the ground, sometimes slashed Into pgnels, but more often straight. Her tailor-mades are severe and trim. Sometimes tbe blouses worn with them have high collars and they are Invariably accompanied by narrow cravats. The coat Is frequently piped and has collar and narrow cuffs of lacquered kid, either gold or sliver, or bois de rose with a metallic finish. Some three-quarter coats are lined throughout with gold kid, giving a strikingly novel effect. Lining Shows Down Front A characteristic of tbe Jenny coats this season is s lining of chiffon or crepe de chine, either plain or printed, that shows down each fcont> of the coat and turns back in wide revers, giving the effect of a separate under coat rather on the lines of that introduced by Chanel last year. Tbs revers fall on tbe lines of a jabot Sometimes a coat dress Is made on these lines--when fastened It looks like a coat and when open like a coat and dress. In reality It Is just a dresa, for tbe apparent coat lining Is In one piece with what Is apparently a dress and forms s straight line from selvage to selvage with each border of tbe lining. Yokes are very prominent in this collection, always In s contrasting material and color to the dress Itself. Sometimes the yoke has a V piece of the same material in front which at the back Is continued Into long tie ends looped Into a bow, tha ends falling nearly to the waist and edged with a narrow binding of tha """Yrls' of which tbe dress is made. Another variation of this type of dress hss long sleeves la contrast to the dress. These sleeves are lengthened from the shoulder Into scsrf ends that cross behind to form a yoke, and twisted in front of the throat and have the ends hanging back over each shoulder. Navy blue and yellow are a favorite color combination for this type of gown. Navy and almond green, navy and rose, black snd white and brown snd beige are also quite frequently used. Bead fringes are frequently used on tailored dresses, appearing in little tabs at the back of the yoke, at the wrists of the sleeves and also on tbe dress Itself. There are many tunics, often Irregular in line at the hem. some being longer at the back, others In front, while several have an apron frnni and 1mm aff at tha s«l^ Has In back. YOUTH FLYING KITE iS KILLED BY WlttE Burned to • Death When It Crosses Electric Line. Tampa, Fla.--His efforts to produce a kite superior to that of any of his playmates cost the life of Benjamin Guy Little, eleven years old. Benny appeared before his playmates one morning with a kite which he told them was the "last word" in kite making. To his kite, Benny had attached a copper wire. As Benny's kite mounted toward the clouds about noon a strong puff of wind carried the kite over some wires. The wire on Benny's kite touched a high-tension electric wire. One flash, and Benny's clothing was ablaze, the grass around him was burning and Benny's mates were fleeing. Ills body was badly burned. He was rushed to a hospital, but efforts to save his life were futile. Dance Frocks On some of the lovellst dance frocks from Paris the flower Is worn on the shoulder strap in the back Instead of in the front. Ribbon Trimmings Add to Appearance of Hat r- Tbe charm and variety found in rib-- - tons explains their extensive turn as trimmings. Roman striped ribbon Is one of tbe most useful forms of ribbon both for the milliner and the dressmaker. The variety of colors in a ribbon of this type, less than an inch wide, make it Immensely useful for lendiug a touch of color to a somber-colored bat or gown. Scalloped-edged ribbon Is a mom useful accessory for the milliner. It will face up tbe brim or cover the crown of a hat most effectively, and eliminate the technical difficulty of making ribbon lie smoothly round the Circle of a hat. * Ribbon is also being extensively used In the trimming of plain felt hats. The idea is to slit the felt and weave the ribbon in and out of the slits. Narrow widths naturally lend themselves to this treatment more easily than Wide widths, and the smaller widths of velvet ribbon are even mora effective than the silk varieties. Dies of Starvation a* Father Seek* Work New York.--Flrmo Ceilegrino, a blacksmith out of work since Christmas, visited the Fifth street police station recently on an unusual errand. He asked "the desk seigeant if the city would not provide free burial for George, one of the Ceilegrino twins, three days old. George died at Bellevue, where physicians said death was due to the mother having been undernourished. Ceilegrino was perplexed. It was the other twlfa, Telio, who had been ill. The twins were born prematurely. When Telio was tilling they took both babies to the hospital. The father went to inquire for Tello and was Informed that he was still ailing and that George had died. What makes the case still more difficult for Ceilegrino is that there is another baby, Giuseppe, nine months old, at home and nothing In the cupboard. Mrs. Georgiana Ceilegrino, the mother, is in bed, suffering from lack of food and grief over tlie death of little George. Meanwhile there is the burial to attend to. Tello may die any moment. Giuseppe hasn't any food. Ceilegrino is a willing worker, and If there is a Job available says he would appreciate the opportunity to earn enough for those surviving and to bury George. Mad Tiger Kills Trainery Killed in Audience Leap Manila.--Crashing through the steel bars that separated It from the girl performer wlto was putting the animal thtough its tricks, a circus tiger at a Manila carnival show instantly killed the young woman. A quick-minded Filipino detective In the audience shot and killed the bloodmaddened Jungle beast, just as it was leaping from the stage on which it had ended the girl's life Into the midst of the crowded seats encircling tbe ringside. ? So quickly did the killing occur that circus employees had no opportunity to come to the girl's rescue. The shot felled the tiger as It hurtled through the air toward the audience and quelled the panic which had started. Stock in Favor Then, again, ribbon appllqued oo flat or,, laid on In plaited bands, makes a most effective trimming for **a smart hat to weur with a coat or tailor-made costume. Crab$ Rope in Midair After Fall Out of Window Lawton, Okla.--R. F. Moore, a carpenter working on the new hospital building at Fort Sill, Okla., qualified as a movie stunt performer. While he was working on the second story of tbe building lie lost his balance and fell backward out of a window. As he fell he grasped a rope which ran through a pulley at the top of the building. The other end of the rope struck him in the face as he descended. He was also successful In grabbing the loose rope, retarding his rapid descent, stopping just as liis feet reached tbe ground. Aside from minor Injuries to his face he was unhurt New Tailored C6at The newest coat for the woman who goes In for tailored styles is made of tweed or homespun in the soft grayish tones called London lirvender. These are made like a man's coat and are slightly fitted to define a natural waist line. With these coats is worn a plain hat of velours and a gay scurf lnsid* tbe collar. Gayly Embroidered It may be bad form for a woman to wear her heart on her sleeve but she may wear nearly any other kind of em broidered motif there this spring. The knitted silk and artificial silk frocks are nearly all of rather sober tints Out the collar and sleeves •usually ale a mass of colorful embroidery.

A report just issued by the United States Department of Agriculture on the progress of the better siresbetter stock campaign for the improvement of domestic animals states briefly why pure bred animals excel other kinds. The information is based on the average experience of hundreds of stock owners who have been in a position to make comparisons. It thus points to the results which other farmers who are considering the Improvement of their live stock may expect from pure bred sires and also from the combined use of pur4 bred sires and pure bred dams. Summary of Points. Following is a summary of tbe pointy in which pure breds excel-: Based on utility alone, pure bred live stock has an earning power from a third one-half greater than scrub stock. Pure breds excel other stock In: Superiority and uniformity in conformation and type, greater sale value, early maturity and economy in the conversion of feed Into meat, milk, wool and work. Surplus pure breds are salable at satisfactory prices in a majority of cases. The progeny of pure bred sires has practically a 50 per cent greater sale value than the progeny of sires not pure bred. Better breeding, combined with proper and adequate feed, practically prevents runty live stock, of which the average farm has about 7 per cent. Well-bred beef cattle, sheep and swine yield from 5 to 10 per cent more meat thau Inferior animals of the same live weight, and the meat la of better quality. Profitable Use of Feed. Improved live stock makes about 40 per cent more profitable use of feed than common stock. Pure breds excel grades, and grades excel scrubs. The use of pure bred sires leads to the owneishlp and use «f fully six times as nwny pure bred female animals. The foregoing brief conclusions are based on thorough analyses of large numbers, of reports. The movement for better live stock which the department is conducting, in co-operation with the various states, has resulted in a gradually increasing recognition of the many points in which well-bred animals are superior to ordinary live stock. The study and control of animal breeding are among the most Impffrffyit and practical means jf making live stock enterprises more profitable to farmers and also of improving the quality of meats. Barley Is Superior for Fattening Farm Stock Barley is unsurpassed as a nurse crop for clovers and alfalfa; it is a better feed than oats for fattening hogs, sheep and cattle; and since it is one of the best substitute® ft>r corn, its early maturing quality will make this graiu doubly valuable in a short-corn summer. The early maturing quality of barley gives It a distinct advantage over oats. This is especially true during the present corn shortage. The grain can be threshed about the same time as wheat, eliminating two threshings and making 'available a midsummer grain feed. . Barley Is decidedly superior to late oats as a nurse crop for clovers and alfalfa because It shades the ground less, and. by its early maturity, leaves more moisture in the ground for the young clover. Chiefly because of Its lower percentage of hulls, barley Is a better feed than oats for fattening hogs, sheep and cattle. Barley contains more carbohydrates than either wheat or oats, has less fat, and contains only one-third as much crude fiber as oats. Sowing Sweet Clover in Wheat Is Good Practice Sweet clover may be sown In the spring on winter wheat the same as red clover, though it is more Important to sow the seed of sweet clover rather early, because much of it must lie in the ground for some time before It will absorb enough water to germinate. If it can be sown when tbe ground is checked open in small cracks or is honeycombed nothing •lore need be done to coyer it. In case a good rain should come soon afterwards. The main thing In growing sweet clover is to have a sweet soil, or to have limestone applied in case the soil Is sour. If you have no trouble however, in getting red clover to start and grow good, you will probably not have much trouble in getting sweet clover to grow. BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS RAPIDLY BEING ERADICATED FROM HERDS Country-Wide Plan Known as "Area Work." (Prepared by the United Stataa Department et Agriculture.) Eradicating bovine tuberculosis not only from individual herds but also from entire counties, is gaining favor among live stock owners, according to a recent announcement of the bureau of animal industry, United States Department of Agriculture. The country-wide plan is known as "area work." On January 1 of this year approximately 485 counties in the United States were engaged in some form of urea wor'x. Of these, 55 counties had reduced the extent of infection to less than half of 1 per cent, and are officially designated as modified accredited areas. One hundred others hau completed one or more tests of all the cattle within their borders and were approaching the disease-free goal. ' These 485 counties constitute about 16 per cent of the total number of counties in the country and contain nearly eleven million cattle. The activity is going on in all portions -f the country. Following the suppression of foot-and-mouth disease in California, that state, along with the others, Is now showing renewed activity in banishing tuberculosis. The cattle In Freeborn county, Minnesota, were tested under severe difficulties because of below-zero weather. *orty-two veterinarians started work December 8, using teams instead of *' Purest Grade of Clover Seed Always Cheapest The best grade of clover seed sells at a higher rate than the poorer grades, but one pays less for each pound of viable seed when the best is bought. "The term, a bushel of clover seed: Is very Indefinite unless you know the percentage of purity, the percentage of germination, the kind of weed seeds it contains and where it was grown," says E. C. Blair, extension agronomist for the North Carolina State College of Agriculture. "The purest sample of clover seed ever grown is ry» good If it will not germinate; seed that will germinate 100 per cent are costly if they are trashy and full of troublesome weed seeds. Field tests have shown that clover seed grown in the United States will survive our winters better than those grown In foreign countries" Mr. Blair states that the North Carolina seed laboratory has set 08 per cent as the standard of purity and 90 per cent as the standard of germination. Samples received at this laboratory last year ranged from 45.80 to 90.94 per cent in purity, and from 6 to 98 per cent In germination. "A comparison was recently made of Six good samples of American-grown red clover seed," says Mr. Blair. "The results of the tests showed that the best seed was the cheapest because the purchaser secured a larger number of viable seed for his money as compared to cheaper seeds which were low in germination, trashy and full of weed automobiles. They tested more than 59.000 cattle on 900 farms, finding about 3,lot) reactors. Federal officials have classed this activity as "a good piece of work." Most Effective Metho# for Treating Potatoes The most effective method of treating potatoes for scab is to dip the potatoes in a solution of corrosive sublimate, prepared by dissolving 4 ounces of corrosive sublimate In several quarts of hot water in a 50-gallon barrel and adding enough cold water to make 30 gallons. Place the potatoes In this solution and allow t<> stand for one hour. Potatoes may remain in the sack when being dipped, but it is better to place them in loose or in a crate that does not absorb the solution. After every six bushels about one-quarter ounce of corrosive sublimate should be added to the solution to preserve Its strength. Potatoes should be clean and all rotten or damaged potatoes removed before dipping. Only earthenware or wooden containers should be used for the solution a* it corrodes metals.
