Will Last Long, but Ar« Extremely Coctly at the Present Moment-- Velvet in Particular Form Is Extremely Popular. There la always a peculiar seduc­ tiveness about a fine wrap, and now this charm is more bewildering than ever, for every point of the elegant garment strives for grace and beauty. As for textures, you can imagine how grand they are when I tell you that some of the more exquisite coatings for evening use are marked as high as forty dollars a yard, while such prices fij as twenty-five dollar!' aind thirty dol­ lars are as common as if every wom­ an had her pocketB lined with gold. However, thp fabrics have a lifetime quality, for some are in substantial silks so interwoven with gold and sil­ ver threads as to suggest the absolute defiance of time. For a long period, at least, bits of such materials will endure, and when they are looked at CARE OF THE CANDLE SHADE Lace Covers May Easily Be Arranged 80 That Laundering Work Will Not Be Hard. Keep the lace covers on candle shades separate from the lining so they can be laundered easily. They are quickly tacked to the linen or silk lining with bead fringe and mica lined, that comes in various shades of green, white, pink, blue, red and yellow and costs about 40 cents apiece, aocording to the New York Times. Another cover for these linings Is the lingerie one made of sheer white linen, embroidered in mer­ cerized cotton in eyelet designs. A distinctive set has a fine buttonholed scallop at top and bottom, a bunch of conventional forget-me-nots at one side and on the other a medallion in eyelet work with the monogram of the owner done in raised satin stich within. A popular shade is made of over­ lapping Bilk petals with bead fringe. These come in green, yellow, red, old rose, blue and pink, ""he same shades can be found in the electric shade made to fit sixteen-candlopower bulbs. USE FOR RIBBON REMNANTS Make Attractive Serviette Bands When They Are Carefully Put Together. Small ribbon remnants have a knack of collecting in Mrge numbers, and it is not easy to find useful pur­ poses to which they may be put One HATS FOR THE YOUNGSTERS Season's Models Show That the De­ signers Have by Nc Means Forgot­ ten the Younger Element. The kiddies are not forgotten in the making up of materials for their head- wear. There is a cotton seal plush in white and colors suitable for children's hoods and capes, as well as for brims of ladies' hats, for the entire hat or for turban effects. Velvet manufacturers say that great quantities of black velvet have been sold, not only for the making of pressed velvet hats, but for trimming, and also for drapery effects. Of course, ribbons will be utilized to no little extent. Satin and moires are again to the fore, says the Millinery Trade Review. The latter will be the favorite of the two materials. All these materials, especially in piece goods, are repre­ sented in the manufactured hats, in plain shapes, tailored hats, pattern hats and trimmed hats. Moire used as facing and trimmings will be featured widely for early fall. in the years to come everybody will marvel at the magnificence of our time. For, of course, there must be a revulsion of feeling at last, and then we will come down to the most coun­ trified simplicities. The present gran­ deurs a™» ascribed to the needs of the manufaf y-^'H-s, who, seeing no way of getting to use more material, have hapWmed upon the lucrative no­ tion of making textures more splendid. One of the loveliest fabrics for both evening and fine day coats is cut vel­ vet, which is now shown with gauze background, the texture falling aa softly as veiling, /and yet looking warm and permitting rich fur edges. But to return to the coat of dinky cut which is so popular now, and which always offers a splendid idea for the top garment of a tailored suit in one fabric; for it is the difference between the coat and skirt materials which makes this model trying to most figures. The style is shown by the figure illustrated, the material be­ ing a tan wool ratine and the trim­ ming black panne velvet As a one- piece dress of black panne is worn with this garment it is here presented in its most aristocratic phase, and the get-up is admirably topped by a very dashing hat of black panne and yel­ low and black paradise plumes. Ready made, a coat in this style can be had from fifteen dollars up. Woolly coatings in two colors, wide wale serge coating, wool cheviot, chinchilla, etcy are some of the prac­ tical materials. If the garment is to be made at home it can be varied as the type needs, and if the dressmaker wants a very swagger coat cut for a stout suit of corduroy or serge she could do no better than to use thi£ model. If the coat get-up is to be foi reception purposes, and there is every chance of its being as well the only garment for t£e theater, have the coat of velveteen and the dres of cloth in the same color. Taupe, in that very smart shade called eclipse, would be a splendid color for it, although many rich shades of plum are equally fash­ ionable. Soft New Porcelains. Have you seen the fascinating Dan­ ish porcelains in soft gray and white that are being shown in interesting vases, candlesticks and fruit bowls? One attractive piece that could do duty for flowers or fruit is a Danish peasant girl in her native costume, with quaint cap and 6abots. Her frock is gray, her apron, cap and sabots white. She leans gracefully forward, apparently walking, and drags beside her great baskets, each fully six inches in diameter, of plaited gray and white porcelain. Besides the beauty of this vase, it permits delightful effects with short stemmed flowers, and is especially graceful as a center piece filled with purple and white grapes, or blue plums and green gages. good way in which pieces of strong ribbon about seven inches in length and two inches in width may be uti­ lized is the making of serviette bands to take the place of the ordinary rings. In the accompanying sketch we show a band of this kind, and the ribbon should be cut into a point at one end, lined with sateen and bound at the edges with narrow ribbon, or a fine silk cord may take its place if preferred. It can.be made to fasten either with a small button or button­ hole, or a snap fastener cut from an old gleve may be u&ed. An initial or number can be worked in the center of the band in some strongly contrasting shad* of color. The upper sketch shovs the band spread out perfectly fiat, and in the lower illustration it is r,hown beni into shape and fastened together. As these little articles can be eas­ ily made at a very trifling cost, they should not be forgotten at those times set aside for preparing work for ba zars. Moire ribbon,, both narrow and wide, is shown, from which is developed many new and interesting high ribbon cock­ ades. An imported model shows the use of mustard colored moire ribbon, forming a stunning high plaited fancy with a base of the shirred moire ribbon. An­ other clever use of this ribbon, about two inches wide, is, noted, forming a succession of flat bows, which are placed in a high stand&rd of velvet of the same shade as the ribbon, &aking a simple but effective trimming. Jacket Lining. Many women clever with their needle who' think it is difficult to re- line a Jacket will find that in realit; It is quite a simple affair. Rip out one-half of the jacket lining for a pattern, and cut a complete lining by this, leaving the other half attached to the jacket for a guide. Sew the lining together. Teavlng the underarm seams open. Now tack in one half, fitting it smoothly along the fronte and base of the jaqket, tben cut out the other half of the old tntng and tack it in the same way. v - - r ' . • , x • » > !

Imts y » g i » r r Aagoumois Grain Moth, Sitottroga Cerealeila; a, Imago (XS); b. Pupa (x13)j c, Grain of Corn With a Portion of Surface Removed to Show Injury (X3«/2). By A. A. GIRAULT, Assistant to State Entomologist S. A. Forbes, University of Illinois. Insects of the granary are much more easily kept out than put out. All places where grain or any of Its products (ire stored should, above all things, be kept clean--not merely ap- parenty clean, but actually so. Cracks in the walls and floors, for example, may seem to be clean when swept over, but may really be filled with dust of grain and similar debris and thus become a breeding place for a number of granary insects. Storage rooms and bins should, in fact, be so constructed as to be free from cracks, the walls, floor and ceiling smooth and everything solid and snug. No rubbish of any kind should be allowed to accumulate either in the building or on the adjacent premises. Every­ thing should be done also to keep in­ sects out of the storehouse. Grain should be brought in from the field as eoon as possible, since the longer it is exposed after ripening the more like­ ly is it to become infested by the Angoumois grain moth, the rice-wteevll and some other species. If found in­ fested when brought in from the field, it should at once be fumigated with carbon bisuifid in a room especially, constructed for the purpose. The more important special meas­ ures which used akme or in comb^j, nation may prevent infestation by granary pests, may be described as follows: 1. Small grain should be threBhed and stored as soon after ripening as possible. Wheat should be harvested and threshed directly from the shock if practicable, but if stacked, should not stand in the field longer than Is absolutely necessary. 2. The place intended for the recep­ tion of a crop should be thoroughly cleaned out some time in advance, and if there is reason to suppose that it has contained granary pests, it should be fumigated with sulphur. 3. If it were possible to dry grain from the field artificially at a tempera­ ture of 125 degrees P. for four or five hours, all insects would be killed and grain could then be stored in a thor­ oughly clean and tight place and safely left until needed for shipment or use. Corn which has been shelled dry and sacked is much safer than that left on the ear, whether with or without husks. Qrain stored for seed should be dried artificially, since it not only keeps better and germinates more generally but it also is less li­ able to be eaten by such insects as de­ vour the kernel. 4. Farmers, seedsmen and millers in buying grain should make sure that it is free from insects.

Computed from Statistical Abstract of the U. S., 1910, pp. 33, 48, 672, 732; Yearbook U.S. Dept. Agri., 1910, pp. 616-20; Hasell's Annual, 1911; Statesman's Yearbook, 1909, p. 238. By HERBERT W. MUMFORD and LOUIS D. HALL, Professors of Animal Husbandry, University of Illinois. The number of cattle in various countries in proportion to population is shown graphically in the diagram. Both beef, milk and draft cattle are represented in this diagram. It is im­ possible to differentiate aharply be­ tween special-purpose beef cattle and others, since milk and draft cattle are usually used ultimately as beef. The large relative numbers of cat­ tle in South American countries, Aus­ tralia and Canada, are explained by the small population of these coun­ tries in proportion to their vast areas. Ill Denmark, on the other hand, !• found a large number of cattle per capita together with a dense popula­ tion, due to the systematic develop­ ment of intensive dairying The sup­ ply of cattle in the United States is greater in proportion to population than is that of most European coun­ tries in which agriculture is a leading industry. Excepting Denmark we have more than twice the number of cattle per capita found in any Euro­ pean country for which statistics are available. This in part explains the large export trade In beef cattle and beef which we maintained until re cently. but which is now rapidly de clinlng. It has been asserted by some that as population becomes more dense livestock production must gradually be abandoned in order to render a larger proportion of the grain and vegetable products directly available for human food. It is also believed by many farmers that It is impossible, under normal conditions, to raise or feed cattle on land worth $100 to $200 per acre. Whether these statements are warranted may be determined in a general way by observing the number of c&ttle in proportion to population in various countries at different stages of their hUtory. Evidently a dense population and an Intensive system of agriculture do not necessarily involve a decrease in the cattle-raising industry; but, on the other hand, it appeal's to Increase. Only in Holland, where the cattle are chiefly of the dairy type, is a relative decrease noted, and this is so slight as to be considered insignificant. In gen­ eral. the value of land increases more or less directly In proportion to the Increase in population, from which It i^ apparent that cattle raising has not been found incompatible with high-priced land in the countries repre­ sented above. lm- Fertillzatlon of Wheat. "What is the best method for mediate fertilization of wheat?" Phosphorus for Immediate effect upon wheat may be best obtained in good steamed bone meal, this to be used at the rate of 200 pounds to the acre. On ordinarily good soil I would not advise the use of anything further unless it would be a top dressing or well rotted manure In a good rota­ tion In which a legume crop such as clover is grown regularly once every three or four years and then the larger part of the crop returned di­ rectly as green manure or as farm manure, and stalks and other crop re­ sidues to supply organic matter, phos­ phorus may most economically be sup­ plied in the form of raw rock phos­ phate.

Lip- pincott, bead of the poultry depart­ ment at the Kansas Agricultural col- legs. says. f The farm is the place to raise tur­ keys. They must have a good range. During the first few months it is better to give them no grain, but let them forage and eat bugs. If small turkeys are cared for in • this way, the fatality will be much less. Professor Lipplncott suggests that you let BO me farmer take your young turkeys and rear th^rn. You might arrange to pay a little rent to a farmer for allowing your birds to roam on his pastures. Then, along about Thanksgiving, all you have to do Is to go out and harvest your turkeys. Turkeys Need Large Range. For those persons in town who are thinking of raising a turkey or two In their back yards there is trouble in store. The back yard or pen is aot the place for a bird which re- Effect of Excitement.

IN THESE DAYS OF DIVORCES . "i .Kj,, ' .xv' •.'(?* Ready Nothing Remarkable the •Unplo and Frank ExpiantfUftn of the 8mall Boy. We were walking down the street Sunday and we saw the most beauti­ ful child sitting on the front steps of a pretty house, says ^Ted .Robinson. His eyes were so big and blue, his curly head BO golden, his innocent smile so frank and inviting that we could not resist the temptation to en­ ter Into conversation with him. "Well, son," we said in the idiotic­ ally genial way with which an adult usually addresses a child, "how old are you?" "Four," lisped the Infant (He didn't really lisp it, because you can't lisp when you say four; but that's the way children are supposed to do.) "Isn't that fine!" (It would have been Just as fine if he'd been three, though, or five. More idiocy.) "And whose little boy are you?" "Mamma's li'l boy." "Aren't you papa's little boy. too?** "Nope." "Why aren't you papa's little boy?" "The decree gimme to mamma." Then we went on our pleasant way. --Savannp.h Morning News. A CLERGYMAN'S TE8TIMONY. The Rev.
