FARM NOTES.
—~Sheep require some kind of a
succulent food more than other stock.
—The older the hog gets the more
it costs to put a pound of meat on it.
—Proper attention to sanitation
with farm animals will prevent many
losses.
—English hogs tend more to the
bacon type than do those raised in
America.
—The growing pig should be fed at
least 2 per cent. its own weight in
grain, daily.
—Two growers of nursery stock in
Pennsylvania were recently prosecut-
ed for selling uncertified nursery
stock. These nurseries had been in-
spected and conditions were found
which made it impossible to issue a
certificate. The owners were notified
of the existing conditions and were
advised to immediately clean up all
undesirable conditions. Instead of do-
ing this, the growers proceeded to sell
stock in violation of the law.
The State nursery law provides for
the inspection and certification of all
nursery stock produced in the State.
When such stock is infested, it is
placed in quarantine until cleaned up.
In no case is the nurseryman allowed
to sell uncertified nursery stock. Such
disregard of the law subjects the own-
er to prosecution and a heavy fine.
—The last spray for the control of
codling moth which is the insect caus-
ing wormy apples, should be applied
about the second week in July, states
‘T. L. Plant Industry, Pennsylvania
Department of Agriculture. This
spray should be thorough and should
be made up of lime sulphur diluted 1
to 40 with the addition of one and one-
half pounds of arsenate of lead.
It is important that this spray be
made at the time indicated on all win-
ter varieties of apples in order to be
effective. This spray is frequently not
necessary on varieties of apples rip-
ening in the early fall, neither is it
required on the summer varieties.
Fruit growers are advised by spec-
ialists in the Department to keep fruit
as free of spray residue as possible
this year since it is known that fruit
free from discoloration and residue
sells better than when strained.

FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.
DAILY THOUGHT.
“I do not think much of a man’s religion
unless his dog or cat are happier for it.”
—Roland Hill.
The fall millinery openings which
have just taken place in Paris place
emphasis on varied crown treatments
rather than brim manipulation. Wid-
er brims than last autumn are the gen-
eral rule, but principal interest cen-
ters around the numerous high-crown
effects. High, straight crowns, after
the manner of the masculine opera
hat, more moderate shapes with fed-
ora clefts and the very new and still
slightly bizarre cone crown are the
outstanding types. Below is append-
ed a summary of some of the early
openings. :
The most unusual millinery in many
seasons is featured in the Agnes fall
collection. The new cone shape is
presented in various interpretations.
In one instance it is of felt, unexag-
gerated and trimmed with grosgrain
triangles. In another the cone theme
comes to such a bizarre point that it
resembles a jester’s cap. Agnes then
makes the transition from the ridi-
culous to the sublime by offering ‘an
Italian renaissance model of black
velvet and gold lace with a semi-tur-
ban brim, which gives the effect of a
halo. Felt is the leading Agnes fab-
ric—black, gold and brick the leading
colors,
Velvet is easily the outstanding
fabric of the Talbot collection, which
sponsors numerous versions of the
high crown and comparatively little
brim complexity. The characteristic
brim is quite regular in shape, and
even when fairly large in size appears
small by reason of the stately crowns
which tower high above. Most fre-
quently these high hat models are
cleft in or near the middle, but some-
times they are peaked or ridged
across the top directly at the center.
Feathers, flower and ribbon trim-
mings are freely employed, and the
greatest of these, numerically, is fea-
thers. Compared with recent sea-
sons, an air of elegance is apparent
at the showing.
Rose and light blue are the out-
standing shades of the early autumn
collection of Marthe Regnier, which
strikes a decidedly luxurious note
throughout. Shirred and corded vel-
vets are frequently employed as the
base material, while trimmings in-
clude ostrich feathers, metal orna-
ments and fur bandings. The crowns
in this collection are either draped to
the headline or definitely square with
no attempt made to follow the indi-
vidual line. Capelines are employed
and there is a definite falling away
from small hoydenish shapes.
Soft crowns and stiff brims are the
general rule chez Collot, whose au-
tumn collection employs intricate styl-
ing and a deflection from the cloche
and its progeny. Brims are marked-
ly wider in front, but characteristically
decline almost to the vanishing point
in back. ,
Lovely cashmere-weave woolens and
light summer-weight flannels are util-
ized for sports and general-wear
dresses; £6 coats of ‘individual design
and for the ensemble that is so desir-
able a costume for travel and for the
vacation journeying.
Color is delightfully varied, permit:
ting of ideal individuality or a becom-
ing acceptance of decidedly modish
color schemes. All in all, a happy
condition exists in fashion for mid-
summer with promises rich in inter-
est of pleasing modes for early au-
tumn. :
The mannish simplicity that pre-
vails in the overblouses of crepe de
chine and washable silks now being
worn is a characteristic that is being
carried over into the designs in
blouses for autumn wear.
Recent models presented by French
designers as styles for midsummer
stress an increasing tendency to raise
the waistline placement and. lengthen
the skirt. Both .of these design de-
tails have received so much attention
within the present season that it is
reasonable to expect that by autumn
they will have a quite definite bear-
ing on new clothes. The influence of
the Spanish belerc is glimpsed in a
design of a French frock being ob-
tained by trimming.
Tailored and semi-tailored dresses
of georgette and transparent crepes
are very smart, especially these mo-
dels that ‘express the two-piece style,
either by being cut in two pieces, a
blouse and a skirt, or by simulated ef-
fect produced by bands or belts.
The large hat grows more popular
as the seasen advances, and tailored
styles are much in evidence. These
styles are developed in Milan, hair
and bangkok, and are to be had in a
wide range of colors.
The first conference of physicians
ever called to discuss weight control
was held in New York on Feburary
twenty-second and twenty-third. It
was brought together by the Ameri-
can Medical Association and the De-
lineator magazine. From the dis-
cussions of these leading doctors will
result a series of twelve articles, writ-
ten by the doctors themselves, which
will be the last word on safe methods
of gaining and reducing weight.
These will be published exclusively in
the Delineator.
Of course to reduce your weight is
not always harmful; if (you weigh
much more than you should, it is the
right thing to do. Insurance com-
panies have proved that over weight
people do not live as long as those of
normal weight.
But reducing until you are the
right build is very different from re-
ducing until you are emaciated. One
of the doctors at the Weight Confer-
ference brought out the fact that re-
duction of this kind in young girls
might prevent motherhood.
Nor should you reduce by using
harmful drugs, or by unbalanced diets
that deny your body not only the fats,
starches and sugars that make weight,
but the vitamins and minerals neces-
sary for health. This question of how
not to reduce will be discussed fully
in the July issue of the Delineator by
Dr. Arthur J. Cramp, Director of the
American Medical Association.—From
the Delineator.

Pa. Has 7,655.5 Miles of Surfaced
Road. i
Pennsylvania had 7,655.5 miles of 4
145,508.9 surfaced mileage in State
highway systems at the close of 1925 !
the Federal bureau of roads announc- |
ed last week. Of the approximately
18,000 miles of highway surfaced in
1925 there were 1,012.7 miles in
Pennsylvania. ; i
In addition to the mileage surfaced :
in the United States in 1925 there
were 5,316 miles of earth road graded
and drained according to engineering |
standards making a grand total of
more than 23,000 miles tmproved dur- |
ing the year of which time a little
more than 10,000 miles were construct- |
ed and improved with Federal aid.
Total mileage in State systems was '
placed at 270,653.6 by the bureau and
of this 10,827.8 miles are in the Penn-
sylvania system, which is exceeded in
mileage by Texas and New York
alone. Figures compiled by the bu-
reau show that in surfaced mileage the
Keystone State is exceeded by New
York, Ohio, Texas and Wisconsin.
The mileage included in the State
systems embrace the important roads
of the country which have been laid
out to serve the needs of the State,
the bureau said, pointing out that it
is upon these systems that the most
important through routes of the Fed-
eral-aid system and the United States
lighvays have been entirely laid
own.
systems at the close of 1925 were of
