SOME NOVEL TRIMMINGS

Designers Are in Strong Competition
to Produce Most Unusual Ideas
In Ornamentation.
Designers upponr to bo competing
with one another In ait effort to create
unusual trimmings, writes a Paris fash
ion correspondent.
ltenee, who has always excelled In
hand-mnde ' decorations, Is offering
muny suggestions, particularly In self
materials. She makes considerable
use of the tabs of the same material
as the garment, usually massing them
at the side or front In panel effect.
Another effective method of ornn
inentntlon populnr with this designer
Is lenfllkke points and nnrrow strips
of silk or cloth pasted together und
then massed to form a design.
She gains on unusual effect by
making flowers of the material used
for the dress and tipping the points of
the petals with gold sealing wax. This
sort of trimming freqently Is used on
velvet frocks. Ilenee also treats tiny
ribbon loops and short fringes In this
way, using for these a' sealing wax
slightly darker than the fabric.
Lanvin Is lavish with trimmings. She
makes unstinting use of applique de
signs of monkey fur in either black or
brown. She is quite as prodigal In her

use of trimming on gnrments of fur as
on those of cloth. For Instance, a
model In Tibet lamb may be trimmed
with bauds of white rabbit.
An original Idea in embroidery done
with tiny shells has been launched by
this designer. So diminutive are these
shells that they present an nppout
ance of pearl embroidery. Lanvin uses
this type f trimming on evening
gowns and headdresses.
Embroideries, particularly those In
spired by the Polish Renaissance, are
of prime Importance In all of the fall
collections. They are most effective
on plain dresses, the sleeves of which
carry the trimming.
Turkeys and Kanred Wheat Ths lat.
tor Yields More Because of Rust
Resistance, Earliness and Hardiness.
Crimean wheat selected at the Knn
;ns agricultural experiment station tea
years ago, from which source It Is es
timated that 2,000,000 acres were har
vested In 1021.
"Kanred Wheat" Is toe tKte of De
partment Circular 104, Just Issued by
the United States Department of Agri
culture. Kanred Is a hard red win
ter wheat very similar to Turkey. It
la heurded and has hairless white chaff.
The superior yields of the Kanred va
riety In northern and northwestern
Kansas, eastern Colorado, southwest
ern Wyoming, anil In Nebraska and
South Dakota npHar to have been due
largely to Its resistance to rust and
to winter killing.
Kanred wheat may be grown with
success wherever other hard-winter
wheats are grown and should partly
ropluce the Turkey and Kharkof va-
rletles now widely grown. It shows !
no special advantage In the northern 1

EVERYDAY GOOD THINGS.
A good custord pie well made and
baked Is a dessert which It Is hard
to equal. It Is not nec
essary to use four eggs
to a pie nor are three In
dispensable twtf eggs
with a tablespoonful of
flour mixed with the
sugar will make a very
good custard. If one de
sires a richer custard,
three eggs may be used.
Coffee Custard. To three slightly
beaten eggs add one-half cupful of
sugar, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of
salt, one cupful of strong coffee and
a cupful of cream. Strain Into cups,
set In a pan of hot water and bake
in a moderate oven until firm Serve
cold with :
Caramel Sauce. Melt one-half cup
ful of sugar In a smooth omelet pan,
stirring constantly. When melted add
one-hnlf cupful of boiling water and
simmer until the sugar Is dissolved.
Potato Timbale. Spread a pan
thickly with butter, then cover with
fine dry crumbs, roll beaten egg light
ly all oMer the surface, then dust with
crumbs again. Fill the pan with hot
mashed potato, seasoned highly with
salt, pepper and butter, onion Juice
with cream and two egg yolks to each
pint of potato. Bake thirty minutes
In a moderately hot oven. Invert on
n hot platter and let stand ten min
utes before removing the mold.
Tomato Sauce. Brown one-fourth
of n cupful of butter, add five table
spoonfuls of flour and stir until well
mixed. Add one and one-half cup
fuls of brown stock and the same
amount of stewed and strained toma
to, one large slice each of carrot and
onion finely chopped, a small bit of
bay leaf, a sprig of parsley, four
cloves, three-fourths of a teaspoonful
of salt, pepper and tabasco sauce to
taste. Cook twenty minutes and pour
over the croquettes when ready to
serve.
Popovers. Beat one egg until light,
add one cupful of milk to the beaten
yolk, then stir In one cupful of flour
and fold In the egg white with one
eighth of a teaspoonful of salt. Bake
in deep granite or crockery cups, well
greased. This recipe makes seven pop
overs which should bake about 40 min

bread.
SPRtAU OLD Si"rAV7C:! LA'-':
Considerable Fertility Can Be Ol
tained Winterkilling of Wheat
Is Prevented.
Farmers who have old stack bot
toms on their farms should put this,
straw In a manure spreader and put ll
on the land. Considerable fertility
can be returned by this means, and nt
the same time nn eyesore cun be elim
inated from the farm yard. By plac
ing racks on the sides of the manure
spreader much straw can be hauled at
a load. Where this straw Is wet, of
course, the rack will not be needed.
New straw that will not be used for
feed could be placed on the winter
wheat, and this will furnish n good
cohering and make n good fertlltror.
One farmer last winter reported tbnt
the use of struw prevented winterkilling.
