One tailored suit may be quite like another, so long as fit and finish are above reproach, but In afternoon gowns the same story must not be twice told. Therefore designers keep busy turning out variations on the themes of the mode, and they are inspired by fabrics. For formal afternoon gowns tha fabrics chosen are rich an1 dignified In themselves, and therefore simplicity is a requirement In designing.

The average needle woman can indulge herself in this luxury of handwork, by making her own undertlilngs.

That the United States Department of Agriculture and the various states are not alone In carrying on a campaign for better live stock Is shown by results collected by the bureau of animal Industry. The ministry of agriculture for England and Wales has been working for nine years on a "Live Stock Scheme" which is a combination of the "Better Sires Better Stock" bull associacampaign, associations and regtions, ister of merit of the United States. British farmers are being shown the advantages of using pure bred sires and the ministry of agriculture also is giving them financial assistance to enable them to use the Improved meth ods of stock raising. The "scheme" is now operating In practically every county of England and Wales. The latest report shows S31 societies and one individual using 747 bulls; and 93 societies and 451 Individuals using 509 boars. This Is an Increase of 105 societies and 100 bulls over the revloug vear-- enrollment. 0ne ,.irj;e dpaler n Yorkshire says that ne lu.lieves thut cottie values In his district have increased fully $13.20 per head as a result of the work done by the British government.

Of these, pruning the trees is one thing demanding first attention. H. F. Puyne, extension horticulturist for the North Carolina State college and department of agriculture gives some simple suggestions for pruning the apple trees. He states first that this pruning must be done after the leaves full and before the buds open In the spring. Dur ing this dormant season the tree Is bare and It Is easier for the operator to see Just what he Is doing. Mr. Payne's suggestions ubout how to prune are as follows: "The primary object of pruning is for fruit production, therefore the proper amount of wood must be produced. After the tree bus reached hearing age, no attempt should be made to shape it as the period of training the tree Is the first four years after It Is planted. Heavy pruning should never te practiced auring me i ne prat-period of fruit production, tice will throw the tree out of the production of fruit Into the production of wood, which Is very undesirable.
