Ruffs Always Becoming
Oklahoma News
-t<-
TULLE, LACE, CHIFFON AND
FEATHERS REPLACE FUR.
Some cf the Popular Fancies in Scarfa
Can Easily Be Made at Home
—Little Capes are
Smart.
To many women, ami especially to
those past their youth, a l»oa or neck
ruff is so becoming that even after
winter furs are laid aside baos of
tolle. lace, chiffon or feathers, such as
•strlch or marabou. are adopted.
Pretty Neck Ruffs.
Many of these scarfs can easily be
■uade at home, the two models Illustra-
ed being especially practical, but
scarfs of marabou and ostrich feathers
are also very fashionable, and can be
sad in the shops at quite moderate
prices.
There are, too, some very attractive
scarfs of soft lace laid over sheer silk,
a ith a veiling of chiffon, and bordered
by a narrow line of ostrich or mara-
bou or by a rucliing of little frills of
lace or silk
For the fluffy neck ruches plain
tulle and the ring-dot net are favorite
materials, and. although fancy prices
are asked for these ruches in the fash-
ionable millinery shops and. large
stores, they can be made at home at a
fraction of the expense. Such a ruche
is sketched In the drawing, the model
pictured showing a deep plaited' ruff
of brown tulle mounted on a stiffened
silk band, and finished by silk loops
and bows in front.
Another very pretty model was
made of black ring-dot net. four deep
pltsse frills being used, with another
of tulle next the face. A cluster of
black silk poppies with yellow centers
was tucked among the tulle In the
front, which was finished with many
ribbon loops and ends of black velvet
and net.
Another very odd ruff was also
made of ring dot net. each ruffle being
bordered with satin ribbon. On the
ribbon at intervals were set little sat-
in-covered buttons, encircled by frills
of the narrowest valeneiennes edging.
Little capes of broadcloth, usually
with a touch of black somewhere
about them, are made up on the “Car-
rick'* lines, and are very smart and
becoming for driving or for use In
the country and at the seaside. Ona
very pretty model made in the Carrick
style was of bright cherry broadcloth,
each of three circular capes being fin-
ished by a stitched band of ths same.
The trimming consisted of a small
rounded collar of black, showing
scanty touches of gold braid, the low
er points of the wrap also showing
rounded tabs of black velvet.

A Spinster Tea.
This party was given by a dozen
bachelor maids as the farewell party
to one of their number who had Just
announced her engagement. It was
very funny, each girl was requested
to bring the photograph of a man
whom she was supposed to have “re-
fused’' and to tell her reasons why she
preferred to be a spinster. They were
«1ho asked to come dressed as typical
old maids, with corkscrew curls, glass-
es, etc. Baohelor's buttons were used
>n the table and a few blossoms at-
tached to the favors, which were tiny
FOULARD RIPPLES INTO FAVOR
Material Promises to Be Extremely
Popular This Season.
Foulard from all present indies-
'lone, will be extremely smart this
ear. although It has been rather out
*# favor for some time. So many of
he neweet models call for a material
that ts rather soft and clinging and
•astly draped that soft silks will be
• n noarly as great demand as was the
rase last year.

kettles. After the dainty repast cards
were passed with the following con-
test;
1. Alwa>» in pairs. (Cup and sau-
cer.)
2. Would they were here. (Jolly
boys) boy Lolls.
3. From curls. (Kid curlers.)
4. Objecs of envy. (Preserved
pears—pairs.)
5. Warranted to pop. (Bottle of
ginger ale.)
6. A solace. (Tea.)
7. Sadly missed. (Sugar kisses.)
3. Cause of woe. (A bit of spiced
tongue.)
9. Courtship. (A bowl of mush, two
spoons, sugar.)
10. A lover. (A diamond ring.)
11. Our tears. (Salt.)
12. Left over. (A heart.)
These objects were on a table in the
dining room and the hostess said it
was the “spinster menu." Afterwards
the time was spend in hearing why the
maidens had refused their offers and
their reasons for preferring “spinster-
hood." Of course it was all done to
jokingly try to make the engaged girl
repent her bargain. The guests re-
ported “the best fun ever" and at last
accounts the little bride-to-be was busy
with the joyful wedding preparations.
A sewing Party.
A correspondent writes that she
wishes to give a surprise party tor her
sister who is to be married late In
May and wishes to know if it would be
proper for her to give a linen shower
or should such au affair be left for the
friends?
I should advise letting the “shower”
be given by some one outside the fam-
ily, but the sister may arrange a very
pleasant surprise by following out
these suggestions: Write the invita-
tions oa heartshaped cards, with
“thimbles" in one corner, so all will be
prepared to sew. Have ready for hem-
ming a half doien dish towels, duster*,
roller towels and heavy muslin for
shoe cloths, which will be greatly i
predated by both the new housewife
and the liege lord. This will be
pleasant surprise for the brlde-etecL
For refreshments, pass chicken sals4
sandwiches, chocolate and tea (It le
always well to give a choice of bever-
ages), olives, nuts, heart-shaped cakea
iced in pink and white, decorated with
blanched almonds. Ice cream or a sher-
bet. It would be pretty to lay a pink
or white rose ou each plate.

The polka dots of last spring and
summer have given way to strtpea of
all widths and colors. There le the

Baled Will Do
That Ha* Been
the Trick.
Farmers in some sections suffer
much front the effeef of erosion of
their lunds. Ditches formed by over-
flow water I have found can be cheap
ly filled by hales of bay or straw
placed across the ditch so as to form
a dam. The ditch may then be
plowed in or a little earth piled
aguinst the bales and succeeding rains
will complete the work
The bales should be laid flat and
carefully fitted after manner shown
in the illustration, says a correspond
The Bale* in Place.
ent of Prairie Farmer. Tin* bottom
of the ditch should be leveled so that
the bales will set firmly on the
ground and the batiks dug off so that
they will be reasonably perpendicular.
Next all crevices must be tramp, td full
of earth.
If one bale will not reach across the
ditch more may be used. If two bales
are used they should be added so as
to press against each other and against
the (tank as shown in the cut. if put
in this way no support will be re-
quired. the force of water will only
crowd the bales against the bank and
keep them firmly in place
If more than one tier of bales Is
required the ditch should be filled
level with the top of the first tier be-
fore auother tier is laid.
Masonry or concrete would of course
make a better Job, but the bales are
not so expensive. 1 use damaged hay
or Btraw which I have had baled for
the express purpose of use in thiB
manner.
If the bales are properly placed na-
ture fills the ditch. Water goes
through the bales as readily aa
through a sieve, but all particles of
earth are held back until the ditch is
filled to the top of the bale*.
GLEANINGS.
Give the hog a chance to be clean.
The farm of tbe good farmer im-
proves in productiveness from year
to year.
After all, the grain and roughage
grown on western farms are the
cheapest and best feeds for fattening
stock, and especially for fattening
steers.
The best time to plant corn is when
the ground is warm enough, but the
surface should be so dry that the dirt
will not stick to the planter wheels.
Take quick and good care of the
trees aud shrubs as they come from
the nursery. Don't leave them lying
about in the wind and sun to dry out.
Protect the roots. Dig big holes,
spread out the roots carefully and
cover with fine dirt, and your stuff
ought to start right off growing.
Grass and grain form a good com-
bination for pork making. If the
grass Is blue grass so much the bet
ter, as that is rich in muscle making
food The best grain is that not too
heavy in starch. In some part* of
Europe barley is used for finishing
bogs on grass, and produces an ex-
cellent meat.
A WASTE OF MONEY?
J
Injudicious Methods in the Us* oF>
Roads Funds Prove Almost
Total Loss
The farmers of the west pay mtl-|
ItonH in each state every year for good'
road and yet bad roads are the rule
and good roads the exception
There is enough money spent. It in
folly to levy greater taxes to be spent
with equal folly. The great problem
is how to spend the money wisely, and
when we learn this there will be no
cry for grouter taxation, but. a reduc-
tion of about one-half, to the great
relief of farmers and to the great Im-
provement of the roads We have
given time enough in investigating
Use value of the road drag to be ab-
solutely convinced that after the road
is first dratne.1 and graded an ex-
penditure of five dollars a mile in
the use of the drag will keep the
roads of the west in better condition
than any living man lias ever expect-
ed to see them or than nine men out
of ten believe they can be kept. We
simply throw money away in allow-
ing the roads to go undralned and un-
graded and wash out and then get
men and team* together, use au ex-
pensive grader, pile up a lot of loose
dirt, with old cans and horse shoes,
and empty bottles, and with grass
and weeds galore in the middle of
the road, rendering it something to
be avoided until necessity compels
us to use it. This Is simply folly un-
speakable and a horrible waste of
good money.
It is equal folly, Wallace's Farmer
goes on to protest, for u* to put 1*
wooden culverts. The time has gon*
by when any culverts should be road*
of wood. It is equal folly to under-
take to build stone abutment* for
bridges, even though the stone wer*
quarried and lying on the ground.
These stone foundations for bridge*
will just as surely crumble as the
years come. Twenty years ago super-
visors ceased to build stone bridges,
but Instead put in piling in iron
tubes. These will stand for two or
three generations. It has been per-
fectly clearly demonstrated that ee-
ment is cheaper than the stone quar-
ried and lying ready to put In. Them>
fore, if we are to save our money w»
must discard these bridges with ston*
foundation, put in cement, discard
all the wooden culverts, using cement
instead, and then when the road Is
once drained by tiling or otherwise,
and graded, use simply the road drag.
We are satisfied that by following
this policy the state of Illinois could
save $2,000,000 out of the $4,000,00$
and over that were used on the road*
last year, and have road* that would
be a pleasure and a comfort to travel
over nine-tenth* of the year. The
same may be *ald of Iowa, Missouri,
Minnesota, Wisconsin and eastern1
Kansas and Nebraska. There Is not
much to the road question where the
rainfall is leas than 20 inches; but
where the ralnfsll Is from 30 to 40
inches we must have mud and misery
three or four months of the year un-
less we learn how to use our money
collected In the shape of taxes In-
telligently. The great trouble Is to
get road supervisors to quit patching
up roads or bridges or culverts and
put * In permanent culverts and
bridges, using cement, costly as It
may seem at first, but with the con-
fidence that It will stand uatil their
grandchildren are ready to vote. Hat-'
ing done this, quit patching up tbe
roads. Drain the roads tf they need'
grading, and then make It to the In-
terest of the farmers to get out after
every rain and drag the roads, using-
the cheapest and lightest drag that
they can possibly make.

Push the Corn.
All corn growers have noticed that j
if corn is planted at just the right !
time, that is to say. when the ground
has warmed up sufficiently, and the !
moisture Is not too deep, the seed '
sprouts quickly and often within two
days you can see the young plants in ;
the rows Growing crops, like young
live slock, need a quick, vigorous
start, and then they need pushing along
during the whole season. The harrow
will do more telling work right now
than any other implement. Don't be (
afraid of harrowing too much. Har- ,
row before planting, aud when the I
plants begin to peep through the
ground harrow with the rows. If thor-
ough work is done, the ground will be
kept clean, and Is in much better con
dltion than if cultivators were started
early. More thorough harrowing is !
