Western Canada Farmers Rejoice Over Bountiful Harvest. Favorable Weather and Fertile Land Combine to Pour Riches Into, the Hands of Agriculturists. There arc thoe In nearly every state tn the Union who haw rclnthes or friend-, or someone they have known, who arc residents of mhhc of the proviTiOM of Western Canada. They haw ;'(nc then; to earry on the profession and occupation of fanning. Tin ir progress has been carefully athed and such invs as may come from them or tin country that they have taken partial posesIon of will he re.id with interest. Important news Just now Is the condition of the crops. Newspaper correspondents ami government representatives are now in a position, after mnkin a careful survey of conditions, to announce thar tin crop conditions in Manitoba. Saskatchewan Mild All'crta carry the promise of an early and bountiful harvest and fanners view the outlook with utmost pleasure, flood growing weather has prevailed since seeding and all cereal Tops are well advanced. Wheat headed out hiis Ion;;, heavy heads, and Ids UIds are indicated; prediction are being made that the record production per acre in 111. will be exceeded. Harvesting began in some oction.s in the early part of August. An interesting feature of the situation Is the fact that tin re are no bad reports from any part of the country from the Kcd river to the ICncky mountains and from the International .boundary to IVace river. There will also le good fruit, vegetable and nmt crops. Most remarkable has beeti the germination of most of tin; gniln. Marquis wheat sown on May 11 was fully headed out on June .'10. Considerable, advancement has taken place tn the last few years in the growing of corn. Sunflowers are also being grown quite extensively. Both these do wonderfully well. On July 4 the writer was shown a twenty-acre field of corn that had reached a height of upwards of live feet, while a liveacre held of s-Tinllowers dose by, vvas entering for a keen race skyward. Both will doubt le vs be used for ensilage, to which will lie added a splendid crop of alfalfa or sweet clover, which also have proved ery successful. Now that corn, sunflowers, sweet clover and . alfalfa have taken a liking to the country, it will mean a period of reconstruction in many farming districts, and mixed farming will supersede the period of "grain mining' that, no matter how fertile the soil, no matter how generous it may be in giving forth .Tom Us great storehouse of all the properties that have given to Western Canada Its well-earned name of the wheat granary of the world, loo much may be asked of it; the departure from this into the sphere of more intensive fanning, covering many generalities not iH'foro Indulged in. will add dollars per acre to the value of this productive him!. Those who have nab bed, the progress of Western Canada, have been looking for the day when corn and such like can be grown successfully. It has now arrived. The cuttle and dairy industry will e given an impulse that will attract those who have been wedded to this kind of farm life, while none of the interest that may he taken by the grain grower will be lessened. Already there U an influence following the fact that corn and sunflowers can le grown, that is leading to the erection of sllo in many parts of the country, all indicating u growing satisfaction as to the great future that lies before it. Due chiefly to the drop i:. costs of materials and wages, farmers throughout 'the prairie province arc erecting many buildings this year, says the editor and rnnnnger of the Prairie Lumberman, who was a visitor to Vaneomer a few days ago. A campaign is under way among the retail lumbermen and farmers, urging the erection of L(H) silos this year, and this is meeting with success more plans and specifications having been prepared and more structures being under way problably than at any ether time in the history of the WeM.

SasH for

Decoration Is Popular in All Kinds of Fabrics. Some Are Wide; Some Are Narrow Thin and Heavy Materials Serve to Adorn Frocks. The site of the waistline is descendIng visibly, r.ut the snsh is still with Sashes for Summer Frocs. us. It grows in favor and develops In grace as time goes on. It has about It a most feminine characteristic, and It adds to whatever gown It chances to adorn. As one looks about at the social SHAWL AS AN EVENING WRAP Spanish Garment Must Be of Soft Silk and Have Long and Graceful Fringe. The ' Spanish shawl as an evening wrap requires no designing or "making." A graceful woman winds the shawl about her lovely figure, declares l hat It is an admirable evening wrap, and lo, It is launched as a brand new style : The shawl must be of some soft silk, of course, and have a long, graccftil fringe, and it may be gorgeously embroidered If desired. The heavy silk crepe shawl Is a thing of beauty; most of the shawls sold as evening wraps are of a crepe weave. Naturally, a Spanish note must be sounded in the accessories worn with the costume to be finally draped In the graceful shawl, and a high Spanish comb for the hair is all Important. Heavy bracelets are also quite In keeping. Kvenlng shoes or pumps feature the high tongue so much In vogue now, but instead of having it match the fabric of the pump It Is a stlflly upstanding frill of lace. The fan. too, is Interesting. It is of black lace beautifully spangled with a deep vivid blue. LACES PREDICTED FOR FALL Embellishment Promises to Be Fashionable for Use on Blouses as Cool Days Come. The blouses now found in the show rooms of the smarter shops are principally made of georgette, with the exception of some types of mignonette. The belief is expressed, however, that laces of many sorts will be fashionable for blouses in the fall." Some newer models of the sport suits are exceptionally attractive. The combining of homespuns in overplald with duvetyn Is particularly effective in n suit where the plaited skirt is developed in homespun of a brilliant shade of red. with an overplaid In Mourning as Lighter Weight of Material and Shorter Period Is the Tendency in France. For several months a tendency has been noted in France to wear lighter mourning than formerly, and while many women are not only cutting short the duration of it, they frequenti ly adopt for deep mourning materials

which formerly would have been completely described. The long crepe veil, at one time so generally In use, is seldom worn in front except for the tly of the funeral service. The present fashion lias largely none away with the blouses, keeping only the frocks, which naturally follow the general line of the season. Materials at present used for the first period of the mourning are wool reps, gabardine, and even velours de lalne and duvetyn trimmed with English crepe. For the second period, the same materials are combined with crepe georgette, and for the last period of mourning mousseline and crepe georgette are much used, embroidered with lull beads. For this period, afternoon dresses may be made of crepe martH'aln. crepe de chine, cachemere fie sole, these naturally for home or small receptions, and made with a very modest deoolletage and short leeve. A particular detail to be noted Is that the decollates are outlined with white to make dull black a little more Mattering. Coats are cither In cape form or with sleee set In. and frequently

Summer

summer gatherings one is impressed with the fact that the sash in one guise or another does ilay a most i:niKjrtant part in all the modern dress. It Is th(. position of the saslf, or belt, and the way It Is tied and the angle at which it is posed that mean everything to the general tone and smartness of the dress of which it is a part. There are sashes that are wide and sashes that are stiff; those that slink gracefully away into nothing at all, and tliose that are heavy and lined and cumbersome except for the clever way in which they are handled; th ose that are m: ule of thin stuffs and those that are fashioned from the heaviest of brocades; those that are mere strings of beads and those that are embroidered with heads and stitches over their entire surfaces; those with ends that trail away past the limits of the skirts and those that end in a trilling bow with no ends whatever; those made of ginghams and those made of laces. No contrast, no striking use of formerly slighted materials can stand in the way of a sash making itself successful. This season sashes are made from everything under heaven, and it la a happy day for the woman, for she can. by this means, gain a becoming line without a great deal of fuss and trouble. Sashes for summer frocks are perhaps the most important of all, for it is the dress which has survived all rivals this season. There is something about the perkiness of a sash which Inevitably takes the curse off a summer affair that might otherwise be but a composite stringy mass of wrinkles. black and white. A silk duvet yn coat Is faced with the homespun of the skirt. The same model Is made of Harding blue plaid homespun, combined with black duvetyn. While box coats are shown, they are Invariably accompanied by narrow buckle or tie b'elts. Sport topcoats are entirely mannish as to cut and are shown in long and three-quarter models. ARE MORE THAN MERE SHOES ..".s 'r. su: $ Gone are the days when the plain black or tan shoe sufficed for dress occasions, for milady of fashion now demands a shoe as destinctive and at tractive as her especially designed gown. The above unusual design comprised a feature of a recent fashion show in London, where they were made. Red and Black. Kcd and black is a combination which is especially strong on French imported frocks. The body of the scheme Is usually black with touches of the brilliant color. Worn in Paris yi have a collar of English crepe. According to the strict rules of mourning, furs should not be worn; yet black lynx and broadtail aix now admitted and considered as correct mourning furs. As to i:ats, the small band of smooth crepe or English crepe, formerly considered as the sign of widow mourning, is worn today for all kinds of deep mourning, even on the flay of the funeral. HINTS TO HOUSEWIVES Volk of eggs are "well beaten" when thick, light and lemon-colored. A bit of thyme added to the filling for a fowl will give a good llavor. An electric iron outlit in the sewing riHiin is a great convenience. Even a spoonful of cereal is worth saving to thicken soup, gravy or sauce. The !est-shaped utensil for deep fatfrying is a cast aluminum kettle with an oval bottom. Peat the whites of two eggs until stilt ami dry ami add to two cupfuls of plain mayonnaise. This makes a deliciously Huffy dressing. If you have ditliculty with your cake becoming stale, try cutting out a portion rteht across the middle lirst and put the two sides that are left together.
