Beach millinery presents a new challenge to designers to do and to dare this season. In matter of brims the spirit is to “keep on keeping on” until the limit in width is attained. Perhaps It would be more accurate to say that there Is no limit when it comes to dimensions, for the

wider the brim the smarter the-beach bat. / Not only ns a matter of protection, for milady’s sunshade or parasol serves no better, are these huts of enormous. brims winning the-favor of by-tbe-sea vacationists, but from a pictorial standpoint they are injecting a note of breath-taking novelty into the beach style parade. Huge hats of straw, sometimes very fine/ such us mil.ni or hemp, some times very coarse, as is the new lightweight, novelty straw, which is making its debut late in the season, take on mufti colorings -that is. alternating sections are in various bright lines. These straw hats of many col ors are worn either drooping like n canopy almost hiding the face, or their en or stum's brims are throwii back or blown by the wind In a dashing manner (see hat to right in lower i picture). Beacli hats made of linen In pastel shades are quite the thing this season. Tlie enormous brims of these easy to launder chapeaux are draped

LAYING HENS ARE ANXIOUS TO QUIT Good Plan to Keep Them in House Until Noon. “Laying hens are looking for any excuse “to quit laying at this season of the year,” says IL K. Cray, extension poultry specialist at the Ohio State university. “But there are several ways to fool them.” . Cray recommends that the layers be kept in the house until noon or the middle of the afternoon, to increase their consumption of mash ration. The morning grain feed should be reduced or eliminated, and wet mash should be fed at noon, to the amount of four or five pounds to each 100 birds. Regular dry mash, moistened with milk, is suitable for this meal. At the same time the amount of milk which is being fed to the layers should be increased if possible. Comfort for the laying hen in hot weather is an important factor in determining whether she will or will not quit laying. The laying house should be well ventilated and kept as cool as possible, for this reason. Green feed In liberal amounts will help maintain the laying record of the hens and pullets, as well as contribute to their general good health. Influence of Minerals on Growth of Chicks Experiments at the Wisconsin station show that chicks which were fed the Wisconsin ration of eighty parts ground yellow corn, twenty parts middlings’ five parts chick size bone meal, five parts chick size ground limestone and one part salt, with free access to skiin milk, did much better in recent tests than chicks that 'were fed rations in which part of the minerals were left out. In ton weeks the chick t which Were fed the regular ration given above weighed 5<19 grains. A similar lot in which the bone meal was left out grew loan average of ■ -a lot that failed to have, limestone included in their ration weighed ."53 grams. At the age of nineteen weeks the chicks weighed bit.” and 4.60 grams, respectively, for the- different lots. r . The above tests show the need of including minerals in the chick ration. A ration containing milk or milk byproducts, combined with minerals in the approximate, proportion used in the Wisconsin ration, forms the basis for most of the successful chick starting mashes. Yellow corn is a good ingredient for one of the grains as it contains a plentiful supply of vitamin A. The kind of other cereals used does not matter so much, so long as they are easily digested and attractive (o the chicks. Natural Mother Found Best for Young Chicks “Give me a mother with feet and feathers Instead f a brooder,” an old fashione<| poultf) man insists. He has his hens set In batteries of twelve, each hen and her brood to herself, the divisions being made with poultry netting. Corn and water are supplied to the hens to discourage their gobbling up the more .expensive chick feed. The coops and yards are moved often to’ fresh ground, but the hens are not let out until the chicks are weaned. The edge of the strawberry bed, garden or corn field are the fa--vbrlte parking places of this breeder for his hens and chicks. Feeding Green Corn A common ‘method of feeding green corn is to chop it into short pieces and allot* the hens to pick It off the cob In such eases the poultryman should be careful to see that the birds* crops are full at night. Even though some of. the green corn may be consumed It would be a good idea to feed, some shelled corn at night to Ipsure birds going to roost with full crops. The chief dangers from green corn feeding are Intestinal disorders and partially filled crops, but if the poultryman realizes these dangers he will Introduce new corn to advantage. Vigorous Hybrids In n study of hybrid vigor in pool try at Kansas experiment station; White Leghorns and Rhode Island Reds were used. In the pure breeds the mortality of the birds up to three weeks of age was 5.6 and 6.3 per cent respectively, while that of the hybrids was 1.4 i>er cent. The hybrids of both sexes outgrew the pure bred‘offspring. The mating of the Leghorn males and Red females produced more rapidly growing offspring than those of the reciprocal .cross. Poults’ Worst Enemy Lice are the -worst enemy jmults have to fight. They are usually found between the quill feathers of the wing. Lice will kill a poult quicker than they will a chick. Poults are very sensitive to strong odors. In treating them for lice it Is well to use ns little lice powder as possible, but be sure It Is fresh. Sodium fluoride Is used by the pinch method on poults aftei' they are three weeks old. The hen that is given eggs of any kind should be well dusted with sodium fluoride. Success With Poults The wild turkey hen 1 keeps het young turkeys as quiet as possible until they are able to run about rapidly. Even then she spends two-thirds of the time resting them and keeping them covered. Be as near like nature as possible. All success In turkey raising is due to giving the young turkey natural conditions as nearly as possible. Keep green grass before the young turkeys at all times. The grass should be cut fresh at least once a day.

ORCHARD GLEANINGS CONTROL CURCULIO TO PREVENT HARM Important That “Drops” Be Picked Up and Destroyed. (Prepared by theJ United States Department of Agriculture.) Supplementary control measures against the plum curculio, or peach worm, must often be used in addition to the customary spraying or dusting with lead arsenate, if a large cull pile of wormy peaches at harvest time is to be prevented. The United States Department of Agriculture considers that the most effective of these supplementary control measures is the collection and destruction of peach “drops.” A majority of the small peaches that are punctured by the curculio-early in the season fall to the ground within a few weeks’ after the calyxes, or “shucks.” have been pushed off. The worms remaining In these, if they are not picked up and destroyed, later reach maturity, push their way out, and enter the soil to transform Into adult beetles, thus starting a new generation of this destructive pest. Three collections of “drops” will get about 90 per cent of the worms that fall to the ground in peaches during the season. The first collection should be made about one month after full bloom and the other two at intervals of about five or six days. All drops should be made harmless as soon as collected, either by burying tn a trench IS to* 24 inches below the surface of the soil and covering with a layer of quicklime before tilling in the soil or by submerging them in boiling water. Another precaution for keeping down the number of adult beetles is to burn over woodlands and brush near the peach orchard during the winter months. This may not always be advisable, hut, primings, rubbish, and brush piles should not be allowed to remain and harbor curculios. Disking under the spread of peach trees-in the orchard from about May 10 to the last of June will destroy many pupae in the soil. This should be done as frequently as possible. Jarring the trees in the spring enables the orchardist to collect many adult beetles, which are then killed by placing in a can of coal oil. The regular spraying and dusting schedules should be followed as well as the above measures. ’ - Bees Are Essential to Proper Set of Fruit Bees are essential to the proper set of fruit as demonstrated last year in pollination experiments at Ohio State university, according to Virgil N. Argo. There should be a stand of bees on each acre of ground in the Orchard for best pollination results. The blooming time for some varieties of fruit is very short and if Hying weather is bad the bees will work near their hives and may not spread put sufficient pollination. If there is a stand near it will bring about better pollination than if they wefe a distance from the orchard. Arsenates used as sprays or dusts are disastrous to bees and a spray schedule should be arranged that would not interfere with the bees, Mr. Argo states. L Apple Varieties Will Vary in Qualities Apple varieties vary greatly in quality, texture, season, and in the best use to which they can be put. Some varieties are tine in December but poor in March. Some are excellent cookers but poor bakers. Some are good for eating out of hand but poor for any other purpose, while others are excellent general purpose varieties. Needless to say, a customer who buys apples for a particular purpose only to find them totally unfit for that purpose Is not a satisfied customer and is not likely to be a “repeater.” 1 I II IF IF I I I 1F H-FFFFFFF 1 111Horticultural Notes ■I I I i n I-H I 1 I 1 TFF-H' l IFF I 'l l T Apple trees planted 4b feet apart yield 43 bushels more fruit to the acre than trees spaced 30 feet apart, says an eastern investigator. • • » Pro-pink and pink sprays should be •prepared for in April. The disease to be combated is the apple scab. The spray material Is lime sulphur. The dilution is one and one-half gallons of concentrate to 50 gallons of water. One and one-half pounds of lead arsenate should be added to control such early insects as curculio. • • • Many serious consequences may follow when fruit trees, vines and other fruit plants are allowed to starve. Blossoms may form and fall to set fruit, and this is especially true of apples, pears, and plums. • • • Raspberries, both the red and black varieties, are easy to grow and produce an abundance of fruit the second year. This is also true of blackberries. Just a few plants of each of these fruits will make a fine display of both flowers and fruit and the berries will furnish nourishing food. Slight bruises on fruit placed in storage may result in large losses from decay. • • • Did you know that it is a very bad practice to trim the branches of an apple tree up from the bottom? The branches should start about 20 inches from the ground. Trimming them higher will reduce the yield and endanger the life of the tree. Sunscald Is much worse on trees with high trunks, and there is definite proof that trees with low branches give the highest yield.

SCENIC ■: PLAYGROUNDS OF AMERICA By G. M. KILBOLRN '! Falling Bonfires of Yosemite IN MOST of the scenic playgrounds of the West, the sightseer’s day outdoors is ended when the Great Electrician turns out the big light without deciding to leave the little one on. But in Yosemite, as well as at Old Faithful camp in Yellowstone, man provides the illumination, and with it even an added touch of drama, when nature fails to supply it. For Yosemite’s long tirefall, which gives each traveler a chance to set his watch at 9 p. in. regardless of what day it is, is almost as famous as its wurld-renowned waterfalls. Thirty-two hundred feet above Camp Curry and the valley floor Is Glacier point, which is also a hotel site and hence a convenient place for conspiring against the world of darkness that surrounds the promontory from below as well as from above and sideways. Also the cliff's amazing sheerness is quite an asset for dropping things. The blaze Is lit at Firefall point for about two hours—just long enough to Looking to See Where the Fire Goes make red embers of the wood and pine cones chosen to be chief actors, inj the drama. ! “Ilello-0000, Glacier," comes the call from the valley three-fifths of a mile below, and glacier replies in kind. “l.et-ttt the tire tailin'” sings the stentor in the valley, while thousands of listeners, perhaps, stand hushed. And a special contrivance resembling a huge hoe gives the bonfire a slow boost into space. It is 1.400 feet down to the first protruding ledge. John Muir used to tell how then the wild geese were apparently dumbfounded at the height of Yosemite's walls; these distances not only dwarf the long waterfalls, but make them seem hesitant and playful. And so it «is witli ttie tirefall; there is poise, deliberation, drama, hi its mission. No matter how often it is seen, it is always interesting. thrilling, even inspiring. No one knows, for sure, just who threw the tire down first. Some say it was J. K. Barnard, who ran the old Sentinel hotel in the valley in stage coach days; and others claim it was John McCauley, who built the first Glacier point establishment in 1872. aria though a Scotchman, thus gave his customers one of the greatest viewpoints in America. But whatever its source, Yosemite’s firefall during the long summer season is just as much a fixture as is lunch or sunrise; and o.) such honored, days as New Year's and the Fourth of July, there is r triple'firefuli.

CHURCH TO BE NATIONAL SHRINE f j Li. i- A HO' V View showing old St* Paul s, tn Mount Vernon, and a corner of the graveyard. This structure was once used as headquarters by General Washington. A plan is afoot to restore it because of its associations with the country’s early life.

Plan to Restore Old St. Paul’s in Mt. Vernon V Announcement that St. Paul’s Eastchester Episcopal church In Mount Vernon would be made into a national historic and religious shrine recalls that the original church of that name was built before 1G65. it is the plan of the rector. Rev. W. Harold Weigle. resident chaplain of the Episcopal Actors’ guild, and his vestry, to restore (he present churcli. which Is one hundred sixty-seven years old. to establish a museum, and to build an outdoor sanctuary in one corner of the graveyard. A drive for s3tk>,(KH with Avhkdi to make the transformation is being started by the parish. St. Paul's Eastchester is older by a few years than St. Paul's chapel, Broadway and Fulton street, which was built by the British and later became part of the Trinity parish Os the Protestant Episcopal churcli. The parish of St. Paul's Eastchester goes much further back, and is one of the oldest in America., Hospital in Revolution. Services have been held there for 265 years with only one break, That was xvhen the building was command eered us ff hospital in the Revolutionary var. The churcli stands near the intersection of South Columbus avenue and South Third avenue. Mount Vernon. accessible byway of the Boston Post road or the Kingsbridge Road station of, the New York. Westchester and Boston railroad. h was a center of worship before, there was a good road to Boston. It has a churchyard with gravestones dating back 226 years, or 72 years before our government was founded. Aaron Burr practiced law there when the church was used as a courthouse. The names of many families linked to the early development of our country were on the rolls of the old Eastchester church. Ground Fought Over. Located In the rery path of the Revolutionary struggle, old St. Paul's was in the area traversed in going tq/Connecticut and New Englund, just eighteen miles-north of the settlement of New York. The strip between Long Island sound and the Hudson was the famous “neutral ground” of American history, because it was not for long in the hands either of the British or the Colonials. The present stone edifice stands on the very spot occupied by the first meeting house, and is the third building which has served the parish surrounding Eastchester green. It appears to have started near an Indian path, which subsequently became Kingsbridge road. It was called “Hutchinson’s” in the early days, after Anne Hutchinson. It retained this title until 1666. when by royal charter it was enacted that . • t,ie plantation shall continue and retain ye name of Eastchester. . . -” The name was taken from that of Chester, Engird. Tells Origin of Famous Bunker Hill Battle Cry The reason for the famous command to The American Colonial soldiers at the Battle of Bunker Hill to hold their fire until they saw the whites of the British troops’ eyes is given by Clifford Raymond In an article in Liberty. “It was because the New England militiaman was not a sharpshooter,” Raymond asserts, “that the order for holding the fire was wise. It was delivered at close range In a deadly concentration that knocked the British charge cold.” The writer then explains why the New England militiaman was not a sharpshooter. “For one thing.” he points out. “his smoothboremusket was not the thing for IL It had a confident range of sixty yards or less. For another thing, he had not had the ’powder for target practice, or even to shoot crows. It was too scarce. For still another, the New Englander was no longer a frontiersman. The Colonial riflemen were from the Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina mountain fronts, where they had been fighting Indians.” Honora Men of *76 A bronze tablet to 25 Revolutionary soldiers who enlisted from the Turkeyfoot region, in which is embraced Confluence, Harnedsville, Ursina, Jersey Church and other sections, was unveiled last year at Confluence.

Courage Shown by Hamilton on; Monmouth Field What lover of American freedom can read of the part played by Colonel Hamilton without a sense of pride and emotion? A mere boy—jus( the age of Lafayette 2 —commanding an artillery company at nineteen; lieutenant colonel on the staff of Washington, and at Yorktown in 17SI, in tlie presence of three armies, leading the assault on the redoubt do the night of October 14. with a brilliancy of courag,e and success' that- could n< t be surpassed. Indeed, a monument built as big as the Treasury btiildi tg itself would not be too large for lexander Hamilton. For his great encouragement to thecommander in chief —to whou he even served for a while as confidential secretary —ail Americans owe a debt of gratitude. Nor will history ever tail to record the loyalty to iiis chief, notably displayed lit the battle of Monmouth, during a temporary reverse brought on by the tetreat of 5.000 picked' officers and men under command of Maj. Gen. Charles Lee. George Washington Parl.e Custis. grandson of Mrs. Washington tmd adopted son of the first President, gives an Interesting uecouul of this episode. He tells us: “As the commander in chief, accompanied by u numerous suite, approached the vicinity of Monmouth Courthouse, lie was met by a little lifer boy, who archly obseivcd. They tire ail coming this way, your honor.’ 'Who are coming, my little; man?’ asked General Knox. ‘Why, our boys, your honor, bur boys, and the British are right after them.’ replied the tic tie musician. exclaimed Washington. And giving a spur to his charger, he proceeded at full gallop to an eminence a ’ short distance ahead. There, to his extrenie pain and mortification, it was discovered that the boy's intelligence oas but too true. “The very elite of the Atnerican army, 5.000 picked officers and men. were in full, retreat, closely pursued by the enemy. The first Inquiry of the chief was for Major (tenoral I.ee. who commanded the advance, and who soon appeared, when a warm conversation ensued that ended by the major, general being ordered to the rear. “During this interview an incident of rare and citivalric interest occurred. Lieutenant Colonel Hamilton, aide to the general in chief, leaped from his horse, and drawing his sword, addressed the general with. ‘We are betrayed; your excellency, and this army is betrayed, and the moment has arrived when every true friend of America and her cause must be ready to die in their defense.’ “Washington, charmed with the generous enthusiasm of his favorite aide, yet deeming the same ill timed, pointing to the colonel’s horse was cropping the herbage, unconscious of the great scene enacting around him, calmly observed, ‘Colonel Hamilton, you will take your horse ’ “The general In chief now set himself in earnest about restoring the fortunes of the day.” It was here that Sergeant Molly (Molly Pitcher) made her name famous by performing the duties of an expert artilleryman.—John Clagett Proctor, In the Washington Star.
