An Englishman, Francis (lalton, was the first real weather man. (lalton was a cousin of Charles Iarwin. He was born in Kngland in 1SU4. Whether he was really able to forecast rain and sunshine with more accuracy than his successors Is an open question; but It is certain that he was the First to attempt the charting, on a large scale, of the progress of the elements of weather. The methods devised by him, in modified form, are used to this day. a Reason

BLEND OF COLORS

Delightful Shadings Features of Knitted Costumes. Suit of Plain Skirts and Slip-On Tcp Portion Dress and Cape Combinations. Delightful color blends in wool nnd fdlk and wool mixtures are a feature of the new knitted costumes. Suits composed of plain skirts and slip-on top portion, dress and cape combinations, and new notes In sweater numbers are among the points of especial Interest. Lavender and brown are blended in a most effective heather mixture in a dress and cape costume of Heigh Ho knitted cloth. The dress Is straight line with a few Inset side gathers, held in place by a tie belt which extends from either side of the front panel. The sleeves are full length with a slightly flared line, while the neck slit is bound in self material, enabling the wearer to adjust the collar to either a high neckline or turned back effect. The distinguishing feature, however, is seen In the cape of the same material, collared In a straight band of beaver. The 'cape dips slightly at the back and ties at the neckline In front. The smart French woman. It Is said, when she removes this cape from about the neck, ties it at the waistline In front. The gathers at the back and the graceful dip which makes the garment longer than the skirt length impart most effective lines to the costame. A two-piece suit of a shade between brown and henna Is banded at the skirt edge and about the coat in narrow silk strips of bright orange, the tie at the neck and belt being of the same Inspiration. All silk sweaters carry out this theme of bright color bands, as noted in a stunning gray tuxedo model with OF HENNA DUVETYN AND SILK 1 tf This is a winsome street costume of henna duvetyn and black silk, girdled with bronze beads.

OUTFITS FOR THE OUTDOOR GIRL

Miss 1921 Is Permitted to Don Breeches and Coat Not Unlike Clothes Brother Wears. This is the age In which the girl who goes for a canter down the bridlepath Is dressed in smart breeches not unlike hr brother's, and with them she wears n coat of severe cut and excellent workmanship, a derby or pressed beaver sailor tops her head; a tailored blouse, riding boots and heavy gloves complete her costume. She Is truly a contrast to her grandmother, who mounted a sidesaddle In a trailing full skirt with lace frills at her writs and throat and on whose head rode a large plumed hat. However, this is not the only way in which Miss linn is a contrast to her grandmother. Tor the golf course and the country hike, the limiting trip and the skating party the new knlckerbocker suit has made its welcome appearance. These Milts are made of rough tweeds and come with the knickerbockers and the short skirts, which button up the front and have large.- roomy pockets at the sides. In case these suits are not warm enough for the winter winds stunning topcoats of heavy velours and tweeds cut on'slmple masculine lines, or woolen . we.it is in many different designs and colors, are distinctly feminine.

The open rolling collar is of dark-gray satin. narrow band trims of burnt orange. Plain-color sweaters ii. sJlp-on style are made with V or rounded neckline enlivened by bright - color touches. Practically all of these models are shown vrlth matching scarfs in effective color blends, which add much in completing the costume.

NEW BELTS FASTEN AT SIDE Decoration Sold in Paris Shops Is Narrow; One Made by the Dressmaker Is Wide. Roth red and orange are Introduced I In the separate tunics that Paris is . showing, but Jenny uses splashing brocades, such as were worn by the men of old Persia. When the tunic Is not too long, it is fastened to the skirt at the hip, end pulled in to the smallest dimensions possible by a girdle. The public may think that these girdles are after the manner of those sold in our shops, also in the famous Oaleries Lafayette over In Paris which Is packed with Americans spending their surplus money. Put If the public thinks after that fashion, it . is wrong. The belts sold in the shops are narrow, and the ones used by the dressmakers are wide. They fasten J at the side, by the way, and have pendants of metal or beads in some cases. The sash which ties at the side is utterly out of fashion. Girdles. nirdles of all sorts may ho bad to add to afternoon and evening gowns. Some of them are made of segments of metal and others of some composition like celluloid hold together with metal rings. Some are of jade and silver. Some are of strands of beads. Some are of jet. There are all kinds, and for the most part they are very good looking and well worth having as a finishing detail of a new frock. The Use of Fringe. Kven separate skirts are not exempt from fringe, pongee and sport silk ones having pointed or straight bands of it In st If -co! or. purpose of sweater and scarf by throwing the ends about the throat and permitting them to hang down the back. Heavy plaited striped skirts are worn with these sweaters, one stripe of the skirt being of the same color as. the sweater. This makes a very attractive costume to wear lefore the log tire In the hunting lodge at the end of a perfect day in the hig outdoors. Gingham Frocks. You are wise to make frocks of gingham, but you are unwise If you make them without tirst shrinking the gingham. On second washing, even, gingham shrinks a little so make the frocks a little larger than you" wfli need them, and then you will not have to cut them down for little daughter, as has been the case with some women who fashion their gingham frocks of unshrunk fabric. Probably the cheaper gingham shrinks more than tlrU of better quality. Velvet Neck Band Again. The narrow black velvet neck band Is finding favor again this fall for wear with afternoon or party gown. A tiny Jeweled slide or buckle worn directly under the chin or to one side brightens the neck piece and makes it most effective. Popular Shades. All shades of tango, orange nnd vivid yellows. Including buttercup and marigold, are listed as favorites.

ASK INSPECTION ON ALL PRODUCE

Anyone Concerned in Interstate 'Shipment May Request Federal Certificate. INSPECTOR IS TRA1KEB MAN Many Causes of Disput:, Costly Law. suits and Lasting Dissatisfaction Are Removed Buyer and Seller Satisfied. (Prepa-red by the United States Department of Agriculture.) There are few shippers of produce who have not suffered at some time the discomfiture of receiving word from the other end of the line that their carload arrived in bad condition, due to poor grading, careless packing, frost damage, overripeness, rot, breakage, mold, disease or any one of half n dozen other kinds of injury. Every instance of this sort means a money loss and the shipper wonders sometimes whether the produce really arrived in bad order or whether some unscrupulous dealer possibly seized upon a trilling excuse to reject the shipment because it was received on a falling market, or sought a pretext to depress Its value or to gloss over a sale made at what seemed unduly low prices. Condition Determined on Arrival. If really damaged, the shipper wants to know to what amount. Was the whole load affected? What was the actual condition on arrival? Was the loss due to bad handling and packing or to delay or neglect by the transportation company or by the receiver? Was the cause a disease which may develop also In the rest of the crop? Some of these questions interest the receiver and the railways, as well as the shipper or producer. No one cares to assume blame and incjr loss for what happened to the produce while it was In the hands of others. How can all these questions be settled without undue expense or delay? Since the establishment of the federal inspection service three years ago by the bureau of markets and crop estimates of the United States Department of Agriculture, the answer is comparatively simple. "Telegraph to the federal Inspector In the nearest large city, asking him to report on the shipment." He is a trained man. with considerable experience In handling produce, a competent and certified judge of grades and condition. The inspector's verdict is commonly accepted by dealers and shippers and by courts, railways and express companies. With the shipment officially Inspected, all parties concerned have learned all that it is practicable to know about its exact condition and : l:. '.

The Inspector's certificate removes fully half of the sources of worry and uncertainty and narrows the market question down chielly to a matter of salesmanship. Anyone financially concerned In the shipment may ask for Inspection. If there is troulvle over the produce, or If there is merely the wish to avoid possible difficulty later on, the applicant writes or telegraphs to the United States food products Inspection service, bureau of markets and crop estimates, in the city where the car is to be received. Certificate as Evidence. The idea of otlieial Inspection is to provide a reliable, disinterested report as a basis for settling disputes regarding quantity, quality, grade or condition. No matter who 3j.ks for it or who pays the bill, whether producer, dealer or railway, the other party may have a copy of the report. If the shipper and dealer can not .agree, or If there is a damage claim against a transportation company which results in a suit, the certificate Is prima facie evidence in the federal courts on the points which it covers. The request for inspection should tell where the car may be found nnd the number, and should give also the main facts about the contents, calling attention to any special point as to rrrade, quality or condition.

INOCULATE ALFALFA AND KINDRED CROPS

Department of Agriculture Outlines Three Methods. When Broadcasting Avoid Undue Ex. posure to Sun's Rays and Immediately Harrow Field Liquid Pure Cultures Are Used. (Prepared by the Unlte-1 Stt Department of Agriculture. Farmers sowing alfalfa In ground where alfalfa or related crops, such as bur clover or sweet clover, have not been grown before, will lind It advisable to inoculate the soil with the proper kind of nitrogen-fixing lacterla. The same is true of clover, Ieas or any other legume. The United States Department of Agriculture says there are three principal methods of Inoculating soil by direct application of soil from a field known to have suitable bacteria, by pure culture Inoculation, and by the glue method. For the first, it is well to apply at least 2H) pounds of finely sifted Inoculated soil per acre. This can be done with the fertilizer attachment ef the drill, or broadcasting by hand. Ilroadcasting will require a larger quantity and should be done in the early morning, late evening or on a Making Examination of Alfalfa for Nodules. cloudy day to avoid undue exposure to the sun's rays. The field should b immediately harrowed after broadcasting. Transferring soil from any considerable distance is expensive and subject to the danger of introducing troublesome weeds, insects and plant diseases. An easier method of field soil inoculation which has met with success where only a small amount of inoculated soil is available Is to coat the seed with inoculated soil by means of ordinary furniture glue. Dissolve two bandfuls of glue for every gallon of boiling water and allow the solution to cooj. I'ut the seed in a washtuh and then sprinkle enough of the solution on it to moisten, but not to wet It (one quart jmt bushel Is sufficient), and stir the mixture thoroughly until all the seed is moistened. Obtain Inoculated soil from a place where the same kind of plants os the seed are growing, making sure that the roots have a vigorous development of nodules. Dry the soil In the shade ami pulverize it. Scatter this dust over the moistened sed. using from two to four quarts of dirt for fach bushel of sed, mixing thoroughly until the seeds no longer stick together. Liquid pure cultures are prepared by the Department of Agriculture and are mailed in limited quantities on application, not more than enough for one bushel of one kind of seed to any person. They are also sold by private concerns. Complete directions nr mailed with each bottle. FEEDING TESTS WITH FOWLS Mixture of Bran, Middlings, Meat Scrap and Corn Meal Is Ideal for Producing Eggs. As a result of eight years' feeding tests at the United States Department of Agriculture poultry yards at Heltaville, Md., a mash feed has been compounded which gives uniform high egg production. This mash, which has been tested for three years, is made of 4 per cent bran, 4 per cent middlings, 20 per cfnt meat scrap, and CO per cent corn meal. In the experiments the hens were allowed to select their own mash Ingredients. This H the proportion of those different feeds which they ate during fho yar. Several pens of . hens e.vh. both of Leghorns and of Khode Island Itcds, have averaged from 140 to 15." eggs apiece while this mash was frd. While the mash seems to be e-peclally adapted fT Leghorns, It has given very gfKxI results with Iteds. Wyandottes and Plymouth Rocks were found to get too fat on the ration and a mash somewhat lower In me;t scrap has g'ven better results with these breeds. Both the YVyandottes nnd Plymouth Hocks at Iieltsvllle are large standard sized fowls. The tendency to become overfat on this mash probably would not be found In a smaller type of Plymouth Hocks, such as is often found on commercial poultry fa run.
