Truly, fine feathers maks fine hate this spring, for almost every turban, poke, mush room, sailor and stovepipe shape that isn't beaded is abristlo with wings. Some of them nro both beaded and winged at that. Hats aren't the only things in the shop windows that go to tho female heads,, however, as thero are stunning Spanish back combs or tortoise sneii amber, deiui-aniber and carved jet. Wonderfully artistic Bud alluring they are and everywoninu is immediately bit ten with a desire to possess one as soon as she tries their teeth in her topknot. Like Dutchman's breeches, violet, j dogwood and all the spring flowers the! fashionable growths in the spring shop windows are prono to have as ephemera) an experience. They enjoy a brief popu larity and -then vanish like the crocus, to bej;liuip3ed no more this year. 1 am wondering if the exuberant new waistcoats of rainbow hued jersey silk nro doomed to so fickle a fling. Most amazingly colored are they in the broad Roman etripea ot orange, emerald green, purple and scarlet, 'ihey are stunning for wear with the new sport coats of velvet that are pressngented as successors to the ubiquitous sweaters. I rather fear the existence ot the cli vers hued waistcoats will be fleeting, however, since all of their colors are guaranteed fast. Speaking of brilliant colors, we are due to have a perfect riot of them on hands this spring, if we are to judge by the way the glove 'fing ers point. Talk about hnndpainted; well our hands will certainly look paint ed when they don the new sport gloves. Their lower sides are of wash kid in tho most hectic matching tint or a con trasting tone- They will look hand painted if they don't look as if some thing had dyed on our hands. Royal palms may well be dubbed the hands that are covered with the royal purple gloves with orange silk backs. Verdant palms will be those of emerald green backed with Chinese blue. White gloves with black silk backs and vice versa are especially smart in these duys when blauck and white is such a winning hinntion. but, the bricht colors run pretty close for favor. When the kid underpart of the glove is in the same brilliant color as tne sn uuc mirau of being a contrast the stitching on the back in an off color relieves the mo notony. ... , Just, fancy a group of foreign born ehnrmcrs at the nolo match, the gol'f club or tho race course indulging in an animated conversation in wiiicn nnnii gesticulation plays sucn an imp.m.m. part. Thus gloved their waving palms are bound to have all the colorful chitt ing effect of a kaleidoscope. PUTTING IN THE SEEDS. By Carl Vrooman, Assistant secretary of agriculture.
