| } | ie $0 BUSHELS OF OATS TO THE AGRE: WHAT MR. KALTENBRUNNER HAS TO SAY ABOUT HIS GRAIN CROPS IN CENTRAL CANADA. Writing from Regina, Saskatche- wan, Central Canada, Mr. A. Kalten- brunner writes:— “Some years ago I took up a home- stead for myself, and also one for my son. The half section which we own adjoins the Moose Jaw Creek; is a low, level and heavy land. We put in 70 acres of wheat in stubble which went 20 bushels to the acre, and 30 acres of summer fallow, which went 25 bushels to the acre. All the wheat we harvested this year is No. 1 Hard. That means the best wheat that can be raised on the earth. We did not sell any wheat yet, as we intend to keep one part for our own seed, and sell the other part to people who want first class seed, for there is no doubt if you sow good wheat you will har- vest good wheat. We also threshed 9,000 bushels of first class oats out of 160 acres. 80 acres has been fall plowing, which yielded 90 bushels per acre, and 80 acres stubble, which went 30 bushels to the acre. These cats are the best kind that can be raised. We have shipped three car- loads of them, and got 53 cents per bushel clear. All our grain was cut in the last week of the month of August before any frost could touch it. “Notwithstanding the fact that we have had a late spring, and that the weather conditions this year were very adverse and unfavorable, we will make more money out of our crop this year than last. “For myself I feel compelled to say that Western Canada crops cannot be checked, even by unusual conditions.” Information regarding free home- stead lands in Manitoba, Saskatche- wan and Alberta may be had on appli- cation to any Canadian Government Agen*, whose advertisement appears elsewuere. He will give you informa- tion as to best route and what it will cost you to reach these lands for pur- poses of inspection.

Fashioned in Cretonne, They Are Artis- tic and Attractive—Some Window Draperies in a High Degree Effective. Quajnt lambrequins of flowered ma- terials are in again after being out for a hundred years. They are wonder- fully attractive, too, even in a rich- ly furnished room, for cretonne is be- ing made in some very artistic color effects now. Besides the advantage of lightness they do not require so many sets of sheer curtains inside. A single pair at each window with plain, straight side hangings of cretonne and a lam- brequin to finish the top is quite enough for any room. Lambrequins may be straight across the top of the window. They may be plaited or be cut in three shaped scal- lops. One quaint fashion is to dis- pense entirely with any side drapery of cretonne, and to have the lambre- quin form a panel at each side of the window top. Then between the two panels have the cretonne draped in a festoon a little shorter than the side pieces on the lower edge. For a straight across plaited lam- brequin side curtains may be used or not, but if no side draperies are used then the lambrequin should be rather deep, perhaps a quarter the full length of the window. Much of the effective- ness of this window decoration de- pends on getting the right proportion for the dranery. Double box plaits laid close together and having the plaits shirred three inches below the top will make a graceful’ hanging. When more fullness is desired triple box plaits are used, and if gathers are not liked the plaits may be held in place with a few rows of stitching and held to the pole or frame by under fastenings. A simpler way, which is attractive for bedroom drapery, is to~have the side curtains quite plain, just a width of the cretonne used for each, and across the top have a deep valance of the cretonne hung on a rod with a narrow upstanding frill to finish the top. After it is put up the greater fullness of the valance may be pushed to the sides. Very often other curtains are omitted in rooms which have sash pieces or inside shutters. It looks prettier, however, to hang some thin lace or netting the full length of the window under the cretonne side draperies. Ruffled valances are both quaint and effective. They differ from the above only in having a separate frill two or three inches wide set on the edge of the valance proper. Sometimes this frill is trimmed with braid or gimp, or the whole valance itself may have a decoration. As a rule cretonne is decorative enough in itself to re- quire nothing in the way of trimming to enhance its effect. In arras fabrics lambrequins are made on frames to fit over the top of the window or doors and to form a support for the side draperies. If curtains at the sides match the lam- brequin then there should be the same decorative treatment used on both, Applique and stencil work show to advantage on the rough linen arras which is now so popular with mission furnishings. nnn TASSELS COMPLETE THE BELT. New Idea That Is Most Becoming to Ordinary Figures. Most of the new high belts are fin- ished in one long end with a tassel. This idea is carried out even in morn- ing dresses, voile or pongee, and is becoming to the average figure, par- ticularly as the new _ semi-princess dress is so much the rage. The belt at present is not fastened directly around the waist line, but slightly above it, to give the skirt a very long line in front and on the sides. Some dresses of light materials are finished in front directly below the guimpe in a large bow of the material. This is not unattractive for very slim figures, for it adds several inches to the bust measure. There will be, ow- ing to the present increasing popu- larity of the guimpe waist, a decided leaning toward the very low line of the corsage, for it is becoming to every woman, and the guimpe will add what- ever is necessary for the sake of modesty. Mohatr Petticoats. First it was reported that taffeta might be rubberized; then pongee took kindly to the process, and now mohair has become water and dirt proof. This last is a great acquisition to enthusias- tic motorists, for the material is light and cool, and at the same time it wears like wire. Pongee and silk may hold their places in the esteem of womankind for raincoats to be worn at social functions, but for driving, auto- mobile and coaching mohair will be found superior. The prettiest coats are of white and many are made in models so charming that no one but the initiated would suspect them of being any more useful in a storm than a light and lacy opera coat. WHEN THE DUST FLIES. Pretty Coat Designed for Either Al- paca or Tussore. Alpaca or tussore are the best ma- terials for such a coat as this, as they are light in weight, and the dust can be easily shaken off. This pattern has the short-waisted effect produced by the waistband that is put round a little higher than the actual waistline; it is fastened by a fancy metal clasp. The deep cuffs and turn-over collor are simply stitched at the edge, the cuffs being ornamented with buttons. Hat of fine Tuscan straw, with full lace crown surrounded by a band of velvet. Material required for the coat: five yards 46 inches wide. Pe v-w at aaa a ttt cacaeaeaea aoa ace ONS STOTT, CASE FOR CHURCH BOOKS. Useful Article Easily Put Together in the Home., The accompanying sketch shows a very pretty little case for carrying a prayer and hymn book, which might easily be made at home. It is carried out in strong Roman satin, lined with x cardboard, to give it greater strength and substance, and it should be chosen in some color to harmonize with the \dress in whose company it will be geen. A cardboard box might well serve for a lining, if one can be found of the right size to hold the prayer books comfortably. The edge is bound with rather wide gold galloon, and the front prettily embroidered in a floral design. Two long ends of ribbon tied in a bow will serve to sling the carrier from the wrist, so that the hands will be free to hold a purse or handker- chief, or to keep warm in a muff. For the Hair. Jeweled daggers for the hair to suit the time of the day will shortly be- come social necessities, according to jewelers who make “art” ornaments a specialty. Jeweled daggers are not a new fashion, but those that are now being displayed are larger than the poniards which were worn about 40 years ago and are indeed much more formidable-looking weapons. Although only measuring from six to ten inches in length, they could easily be em- ployed as a means of defense in time of trouble. Curl daggers are shown in many designs. The little blade is fit- ted with a tortoise shell or carved horn handle for morning wear. An enamel hilt decorated in shades to match the gown is very artistic in the afternoon. Red enamel shining among dark braids of peacock blue in fair curls make a charming accessory to a_ successful toilet. The evening dress daggers can be procured in the most elaborate pat- terns, and vary in costliness from those with a silver hilt set with rough turquoises, amethyst or pink coral to elaborate designs in gold, inlaid with precious stones. . BUYING PAINT BLINDLY. Many people look upon paint buy- ing as a lottery and so it is, the way they do it. It is not nezessarily so, however. Pure White Lead and lin- seed oil are the essential elements of good paint. Adulterants in white lead can be easily found by the use of a blowpipe. Adulterations in linseed oil can be detected with a fair degree of certainty. See that these two elements are pure and properly put on and the paint will stay put. National Lead Company, Wood- | bridge, Building, New York City, will send a blowpipe outfit and instruc- tions for testing both white lead and linseed oil, on request. There is nothing imaginary ahkout the weakness that results from worry over imaginary ills. U. 8 DIP, WASH AND DISINFECTANT The Best and Cheapest, 1 GALLON MAKES 100 GALLONS.

" NATURE AND A WOMAN'S WORK Nature and a woman’s work com- bined have produced the grandest remedy for woman’s ills that the world has ever known. In the good old-fashioned days of our grandmothers they relied upon the roots and herbs of the field to cure disease and mitigate suffering. The Indians on our Western Plains to-day can produce roots and herbs for every ailment, and cure diseases that baffle the most skilled physicians who have spent years in the study of drugs. From the roots and herbs of the field Lydia E. Pinkham more than thirty years ago gave to the women of the world a remedy for their pe- culiar ills, more potent and _effica- cious than any combination of drugs, Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is now recognized as the standard remedy for woman’s ills. Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 N.C. St., Louisiana, Mo., writes: “Complete restoration to health means so much to me that for the sake of other suffering women I am willing to make my troubles public. “For twelve years I had been suffer- ing with the worst forms of female ills. During that time I had eleven different physicians without help. No tongue can tell what I suffered, and at times I could hardly walk. About two years ago I wrote Mrs, Pinkham for advice. I followed it, and can truly say that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Cu.a- pound and Mrs. Pinkham’s advice re- stored health and strength. It is worth mountains of gold to suffering women.” What Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege- table Compound did for Mrs. Muff, it will do for other suffering women.
