Medieval and Napoleonic Styles in Strugoiefor Supremacy. • V#. MILITARY IDEA ALSO EIITERS :v; Are Not Now Asked to Wear Frills and Flounces, Streaming Ribbon* and Rosea. . New fork.--The medieval in dresii dies hard. The Napoleonic influence in apparel never really loses Its grip. • It may be said by the historian of dress that one of these two phases of feminine costumery is the basis of fev- , ery fashion that comes and goes. The world of clothes has just ex­ perienced a mad revival in medieval- isa. Women of every weight, age and curve have adopted the gowns of Qyeen Guinevere and Mellsond. Such garments have been cut by the hundred, in block, and they have been worn In all the market places of the civilized world for two years. The splendid, sweeping robes in which Guinevere met Launcelot have served, 'when modified, to carry Mary Jane to the department store to buy bar- ' gain shirtwaists. The swinging sleeves, the loose, Jew­ eled rope girdle and the straight widths of deeply colored velvet worn by Juliet when she went to the somber tombs of the dead have been worn by blue-eyed Miss Flapper, rapturously applauding The Midnight Follies. "Wh&t are the uses of history,"' say the designers, "If not to turn it into present use?" And so, over and over, the,wo rid of apparel greets the rising of the medieval sun, season after sea- . ion, decade after decade. Th« Napoleonic period is as deeply impr&sed on the minds of the design­ ers. There was nothing medieval about French costumery throughout the : reign of the superman, but there were so many eccentricities, such a vast variety of beautiful lines and curves, so much glowing narrative and tragic romance attached to the sweep of a skirt and the flow of a sleeve, that the dressmakers pever get away from ,, tigpse pages of costumery. / Jg Napoleonic Again Threatens. ... >' " ^IToday w,e are again threatened with the JNapoleonfc. We are almost sated with medievalism. The Directolre beckons; the First empire allures. The madness of Mme. Tallien will not be repeated today, unless France is suddenly assured of victory, when, if history repeats itself, she may go quite mad again for a short time, through the costumery of her women. In this glow of feeliaitft toward the m Napoleonic period we are not even * averse to the laced bodice and tb? This glorified poke bonnet is made of dahlia red satin, with underbrim of white straw and uncurled plumes of tan color. The blazer is in tan and pale blue stripes. It has Chinese sleeves. gathered skirt of those "citoyennes" who wrecked the Tuilerles and par­ celed among them the finery of the Austrian. Already the colored cotton bodice laced with cords, Instead of fastened, tea come into being. The Liberty cap Is being brought out by the milliners In a modern form which is still the symbol of equality and fraternity. The high waistline and the long skirt that droops in a simple line from bust to ankle have been introduced by powerful designers, who have usually had their way in the world of fashion. , Broad stripes in taffeta and soft silk HEM DOWN ON FORMAL GOWN are offered for skirts, separate pep- lum blouses, revers and hats. And so it is. And if an airman were in an airplane above the fashions of the hour on the battlefields of com­ mence, his map would show the Na­ poleonic struggling with the medieval. Both have cohorts of strength behind them. ' / • The Military Influence. Between the medieval and tlie Na­ poleonic which still influence the ma­ jority of clothes that are offered this summer, the new military dress is For Outdoor Wear, However, the Skirt May Be Cut Off at Any Length the Wearer Likes. For sports, for the country, for the porches of country clubs, the skirt can be cut off at any length the wearer likes, but for the formal occasions, even, dancing, the hem is reaching to­ ward the floor, it drops at the back of the skirt1 in an elaborate train that is cut to a point, but which promises to be square in the near future, as it was when this century was in its in­ fancy. There is one shop in New York to fall back on when the woman who dis­ likes long skirts and trains needs an argument to uphold her continuance of the very short evening skirt, but even this one adds the snakelike appendage to,the back of the skirt. This famous house keeps to the wisp of a train be­ cause it likes the shocking contrast between the audacious shortness of the front of the skirt to the dignity ikfoived- 4jt' • tssiftf*" *-• •* g.-.f ' Here is a new uniform for girls in war work. It is made of wool khaki with skirtlike trousers and long jack, et. The full cape fastens about the neck with a yoke collar. Qoots and puttees of Russian leather. wedged. It forms a salient that Is be­ ing rapidly strengthened and organ­ ized. The first woman who appeared in a military outfit at a fashionable res­ taurant at the noon hour received aa much enthusiastic attention as did the young artillery man who stood be­ hind a rapid firing gun mounted in the lobby of the hotel, with a poster asking for subscriptions to the Liberty loan as a background. The woman who wore the military costume had just come off duty and was getting her lunch in as much of a hurry as she could. It amused her very much tjwit a number of people thought she was in fancy dress cos­ tume. She wore the Jibaki of the United States army. Russian leather, low- heeled shoes, a very short, scant skirt, a khaki regulation military Jacket and the regulation cap. Against the background of filmy chiffon, strings of pearls, picture hats and Oriental garb, she made a delight­ ful picture. She was the essence of simplicity, efficiency and trlgness. Wlttyn the month the desire for the military costume has grown so great that one sees all classes of wom­ en on errands of war relief In these khaki outfits. 'Women who have been taking their lessons in ambulance driving, ^valk through the streets wearing the full, kliakl breeches which the uniform prescribes, and over their shoulders is the full, swirling cape'of the French ambulauce and avi­ ation corps. Greeted With Deference. Women have long worn ridlnj breeches on the street, covered with a cape or a long top coat, and this new ambulance costume creates less at* tentlon in large centers than It would have done a half-dozen years ago; but even now it creates a ripple of interest which is always attended by approval and admiration. There are no jests no satirical remarks, no laughter from the men as these uniformed women pas* through the ranks of people on the staeets.' Some of the deference is shown to them that Is given to the women with the red cross on their costumes or the brassard of mercy on their arms. It is a happy fact to remember, when one is separating the segments of fashion for this summer, that the 1840-60-70 fashions for women have not reappeared. They were ugly, futile and costly. Fortunately for us, In this, season of embrogllo, we are not asked to wear frills and flounces, streaming ribbons and roses. Medievalism is severe, even if gor­ geous at times. The Napoleonic fash- Ions are economical, for they run from what is known as, the First Empire through the Grecian draper> and to the Dlrectoire severity.

Tack the covered burlap to the frames by using a narrow gimp and brass-headed tacks, and putting a white molding on top. Taffeta Coats Wool Collared. The summer cloak of taffeta is col­ lared and cuffed with woolen tissue in­ stead of fur.

Sonneck of the' Library of Congress, writing in the Art World on the specific subject of music in pub­ lic libraries, has this to say in refer* ence to books in general: "A librarian ought not to content himself with giving to the public what it happens to want, but ought to help create a demand for what the public needs; no self-respecting library can afford to be without certain cultural document? whether they be consulted frequently or seldom; the needs of one solitary scholarly specialist should weigh with librarians just as heavily as the wants of a hundred "general and generally superficial and unpro­ ductive readers. "After all," he odds," "It is not the frequency of use that counts, but the use to which a book is put. A costly and rare book consulted only once in ten years, but then by a man of far- reaching research or codification of research, has justified its acquisition just as much afc an Inexpensive com mohplace book consulted every day for more receptive information." Her Great Comfort. Donald and Charlie, two Muncie boys of eleven, went for a "hike" the other day, and When the noon lunch­ eon hour arrived failed to appear after an absence of two hours, causing Don­ ald's mother to become worried, fear­ ing an accident had happened to the boyr who Is always prompt at meal times, even if not on other occasions. But the father ate his luncheon calm­ ly, being wise to the ways and wan­ derings of boys of eleven, and unwor- rledly started for his office at one o'clock, when the wife remarked to him, her brows furrowed with care, "What shall I do if Donald doesn't come?" •TO tell you what you do," said her consoler.

The Pittsburgh Chronicle-Tele­ graph prints a Scotch version of what Is apparently the same story, wherein the testy engine driver explained to the Scot commandant that they were not on the way because "a lot of whisky drinkln' Scotchmen had sneaked all 'the hot water from the boiler to make grog."

Farmers 8hou!d Provide Themselves With Poisons and Then Keep Vigil First Outbreak of Eneanjftif' Crops. (Prepared by the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture.) Much of the destruction to crops by Insect pests is due to the failure of farmers and fruit growers to detect an outbreak at its beginning, and to delay in getting the necessary combative ma­ terial. Farmers who provide them­ selves with insect poisons and then keep a vigil for the first outbreaks of crop enemies will bring through the largest yields. That a great part of the |nnual loss to grain crops due to insect Injuries can be avoided by vigilance and vig­ orous action on the part of growers is not sufficiently realized. Frequently Insect outbreaks originate within a limited area, and when this is the case It Is often quite possible to stamp them out before any great dahiage has been done.

(TYom the United States Department of Agriculture.) Shippers at this time should exer­ cise unusual care In packing and load­ ing their perishable products. They should grade their products carefully with reference to the degree of their maturity and select a nearby market for the ripened products and a distant market for the products that will hold Up the necessary time in transit to reach the distant market. Weather re­ ports should be utilized In a study of the weather conditions that are pre­ vailing In the different large markets, to the end that foodstuffs that normal­ ly are consumed In large quantities in warm weather may not be sent to mar­ kets where cool or cold weather is prevailing. < There should |»e a fuller recognition of the joint responsibility of the ship­ per with the carrier for the safe car­ riage of food products to destination, the specialists of the United S.tates de­ partment of agriculture point out. Shippers should co-operate closely with carrier by giving ample Instructions with reference to refrigeration and ventilation, to the end that food prod­ ucts may be properly conserved In transit and reach channels of consump­ tion. Railroad agents could render useful service if they were instructed In some of the most fundamental things connected with the proper care of perishable shipments during the pe­ riod of loading carload shipments at country stations. Shippers too frequently, through carelessness and a lack of knowledge of the proper methods of protecting perishable shipments, leave wagon- loads of them exposed to the hot sun for hours at a time insteud of loading them promptly Into a refrigerator car and keeping' the doors of the car closed between loads. The carrier's representative or local agent usually takes notice of such condition only for the purpose of recording the circum­ stances for consideration In connection with damage claims that may be filed. The fact frequently is overlooked that the carrier may render definite assist­ ance In the conservation of foodstuffs by co-operating with the shippers and giving them all the information which it has as to the proper methods that should be used. Shippers should invariably notify consignees as soon as shipments are forwarded from point of origii^. Where the distance to market is short, the no­ tification should be given by wire, so that the consignees may be in a posi­ tion to take more prompt delivery of shipments on arrival and thus elim­ inate the deterioration that so fre­ quently takes place by the holding of shipments long periods of time after arrival at the market. prevent the infestation from becoming widespread.

Rape stalks should not be closely pastured after the leaves are eaten off. The plants should be about 14 to 18 Inches high when ,the pigs are turned in. For less intensive feeding, when fewer animals are kept on the same lot fdr a longer time, rape is sown broadcast with oats and clover. Five pounds of rape, six pounds of clover, and one bush?! of oats are sown per acre. Swine should not be turned in until the crop is eight or ten Inches high. An acre with a good stand of crop should supply 15 spring pigs with forage for the rest of the season. CHICKENS AID FOOD SUPPLY Hen Is Only Producing Creature That Can Be Profitably Kept dn Small Space in Village. (By A. C. SMITH. Minnesota Experiment Station.) The hunger period which threatens the United States and Its allies in the present war may be warded off, in part, at least, by attention to the low­ ly chicken. The hen Is the only producing crea­ ture that can be profitably kept on small areas such as city and village lots, that will transfer table waste Into a highly edible product. She selects from waste material, bugs, weeds and grasses a large part of her living for several months In the ypar, and dur­ ing this time is usually u high pro­ ducer of very fertile eggs. She re­ produces her kind much more often than any other productive animal. She can be cared for by women and children and often by Invalids and con­ valescents.

The saying runs that as soon as a lieutenant is made a commander he be­ gins to carry a stick, and as soon as a commander becomes a captain he "turns religious." For Justification of the latter part of this assertion there exists the undoubted fact that naval captains are mostly serious minded men who give some thought to the greater things of life. Possibly their hours of loneliness may conduce to this frame of mind, though for the most part their leisure hours are given up to stu(ty of mutters connected with their calling. One well-known captain there was who used to hold prayer meetings, which any member of the ship's com­ pany could attend. "Remember there are no rates to be picked up here," the captain would warn them before the meetings started, meaning that any­ one who came there hoping to curry favor and thus get promotion would be disappointed.. And in this the cap­ tain was always as good as his word. ---London Mall. ' • * ' Jb HUMUS ONE OF ESSENTIALS It Prevents Cohesion of Soil GraiM Into Solid Clods--Farmers Are Urged to Rotate.
