No Fear of a Hay Shortage
Stockmen do not fear a hay short
age this winter, according to Claudo
Officer and Chet Maley, well-known
s'-.eep men of the valley. Last yea
ihe unusual long winter caught many
stockmen unprepared and hay be-
nme scarce before the feeding son-
son was over, the price reaching ?JU
x ton for a short time. The feeding
..eason will be shorter this winter, as
it began nearly a month later '.han a
year ago While the hay crip may
he little short, it is said that there
are not as many sheep or cattle in
the valley to feed, the stockmen hav
ing taken many out for the winter.
Hay is quoted now at $10 a ton.

Ueikeley, Gal., Jan. 12. Why are
buttons on men's coats placed on the
right side and why are those on wo
men's coats on the left side?
What's the reason for the little silk
bow in the back of the leather lining
in men's hats?
Why do men wear buttons on the
cuffs of their coats?
E. W. Gifford, expert in the devel
opment of dress, of the University of
California, herewith tells how a few
of the oddities came about.
"There was a great craze for but
tons when they were invented for use
of man," said Gifford. "The novelty
spread through countries with civil
ized dress and costumes with buttons
all over the fronts of coats, on the
sides and backs were much in favor,
the much-buttoned uniforms of today
being vestiges of the early coats.
"The reason for buttons on the right
side of men's coats seems simple
enough. This arrangement permitted
the wearer in the early days to thrust
his fighting arm into his packet in
order to keep it warm. If the but
tons were on the left side he couldn't
do it.
"The buttons on women's coats
were originally placed on the left sid
so the wearer could manipulate them
with her right hand, leaving her left
arm free to carry her baby. That's
the explanation authorities agree on
and it ought to be as good as any
other.
"If men will notice the buttons on
thcircoat cuffs the chances are they'll
find imitation button holes at the
side of the buttons. This is a remnant
of a seventeenth century custom. The
buttons nowadays are of no use. But
in the old days they were for a purpose.
"In the early days of fancy clothes
the men spent so much on their coats
that they had to find a scheme to
save the cuffs from wearing out. The
tailors of those days devised the but
ton and button hole on the coat
sleeves. The stylish men could button
the cuffs back out of harm's way and
thus save wear and tear on garment
and pocketbook.
"The primitive hat was simply a
circular piece of leather with alacing
threaded through it and tied at tho
back to fit the crown of tho head.
In the modern hat we find the little
bow of silk ribbon and in some hats
the ribbon in threaded through tho
lining. The modern trifle is of no use
whatsoever, merely a vestigo or trace
of the old days when men had to fit
their hats to their heads with the
leather lacing."
