Need at Least Three Hats.
No less than three hats should bt
taken. There should be one sports
hat of soft felt, an informal after
noon hat, preferably with a matching
scarf, and at least one chapeau to ac
company the more formal types of
costume. Three or more pairs of
shoes should also be included in this
wardrobe—a pair of low-heeled sports
shoes, a pair of shoes suitable for af
ternoon wear and slippers for the din
ner and the dance. Undertliings must
be light and of the easily washable
type. Three or four pairs of gloves
complete the minimum wardrobe for
the steamer trip.
Two essentials that would he badly
missed If not included in the outfit
are the Raedeker and the kodak. An
other convenient article which will be
in frequent use is a large purse of the
envelope type, to contain the always
necessary passport and the equally es
sential letters of credit.
For the motor or train trip no such
elaborate outfit Is required, and the
size of the wardrobe is dictated by the
extent and the 'character of the con
templated journey.
Another striking wrap contains 8
very novel idea and one which makes
it particularly appropriate for the au
tomobile and train. The wrap Is of
blue serge and it has a detachable
lining of bright red silk. When the
outer portion is removed the wearer
Is revealed in a striking silk garment,
once the lining of the coat. When the
temperature becomes lower the coat
is again put on and the erstwhile silk
robe becomes once more a vivid lining
for the cloak.
Across the front of an effective
steamer coat which Is developed in
Scotch plaid, are four pointed godels,
giving movement and fullness to an
otherwise quite straight silhouette.
Tire very necessary scarf effect ic
achieved by having one end of the
collar continue uutil It simulates litis
important accessory to the spring
mode.
An excellent traveling dress which
may be pricked in the trank without
fear of its becoming wrinkled Is given
the distinction of a name —Fiorina. It
is developed from one of Patou’s new
wool ■shawls, the pattern of which is
beige und brown. The cut is identical
in front and back and emphasizes the
typical, straight silhouette. The dress
is sleeveless and lias a low waistline
and a square-cut neck. Bright red
mat beads form a right angle era
broidery design which starts at the
waist and continues down the right
side of the dress.
Smart Luggage Provided.
The first und most essential of The
traveler’s aids is luggage, and only an
experienced globe-trotter can properly
appreciate Its importance. Whether
you’re going away for a week-end trip,
a fortnight visit or an ocean voyage,
the selection of appropriate trunks
and bags will save you many unccin
fortable moments.
The luggage designers have been
particularly ingenious and many new
and interesting touches have been
added—even in trunks, which are out
wardly unchanged. These are snmri
in either blue, maroon, black of gredti
basswood, or fiber finished in basket

buffalo hide and lined with heavy
leather. Each drawer is finished with
tooled leather. •
The \V6ek-end case has not greatlj

BABY HIPPO
In the wilds of Africa, along a rivei,
lived Baby Hippo. It was a nice home
for a hippopotamus baby and Baby
Hippo was very happy.
There was every reason why Baby
Hippo should have been happy.
His mother was devoted to him and
watched over him with loving care
ns every mother hippopotamus does.
In the daytime she taught her baby
to stay out of harm’s way and at
night she took her little darling mar
keting.
Baby Hippo was growing Into n
splendid hippopotamus. Soon his
height and his length would be of gen
erous size, and his teeth were strong
and ids tusks showed that they would
be able to cut tiie vegetables and
herbs with their scissors-like power.
Baby Hippo had been born along the
river, by a little spot where there were
many reeds and herbs and near by
were pastures where there were splen
did vegetables and grain.
It had been a beautiful birthplace
for a baby hippo and some time Baby
Hippo would be saying:
“There I was born. That was my
home and it was there my good mother
taught me tiie lessons every hippo
must know.”
And Mother Hippo did toarh her
baby all the lessons he must learn.
. She taught him that sleeping must
be had in plenty. She taught him that,
too, he must keep half awake at times
to be ready for anything Ihut might
happen.
She taught him how to lie low in
the streams and rivers with ills head
sometimes Just above the water and
His Mother Was Most Devoted to Him.
nt other times how lie must sink far
down into tiie water out of barms
way.
She taught him to walk along the
bottom of streams,, putting his head
up every so often for n(r und breath
ing.
And she taught him that delicious
tilings grew along the banks of rivers
and streams. •
Even though they lived near water
site taught him to eat vegetables and
such food. Fish, she told him, was not
Jhe food for a hippo, and even if they
went off to the sea for a little seu air
he must not drink salt water nor eat
fish'.
There had never been a hippo who
wanted fish food or even animal food,
or salt water for that matter, and he,
too, must follow along the way of
other hippo leaders.
She told hi in lie must he gentle and
kindly In his ways.
“Unless,” she said, “you are In dan
ger, but the hippo is known to be
gentle and to have a good disposition
and you must not disgrace the family
ways.
“Of course some may say you do
harm in getting food from the pastures
and farm lands about and also in the
way you get at the roots of trees, for
that is very likely to hurt tiie trees.
“But we must got our food and this
is the food we like. We do not kill
other animals. We do not eat them.
“But you must he very careful not
to go about too much In the daytime.
Nighttime is the safe time for going
about.
“Your legs are not long and they will
not grow to he very long hut you must
learn to run fast, and at the first
chance get to the water and sink
down into It and then run along the
bottom if danger Is near.”
And Baby Hippo raised his voice
and In a funny roaring, braying fash
ion said:
“I will do as you say. Mother Hippo.
I will do as you say.”
And Mother Hippo was happy for
she felt her baby had learned his les
ions well.

Guinea Raising Is
Quite Profitable
Substituted in Fashionable
Hotels for Various Kinds
of Game Birds.
(Prepared by the United Staten Department
of Agriculture.)
Guinea raising is becoming more
profitable as a result of their success
ful substitution In fashionable hotels
and eating places for such game birds
as grouse, quail and partridge, says
the United States Department of Ag
riculture. When well cooked, guineas
are attractive in appearance, although
darker than common fowl, and the
flesh of young birds is tender and of
especially fine flavor, resembling that
of wild game. The census figures
show an Increase of fid per cent in the
number of guinea fowl on farms In
1920 over the number In 1910.
Raise In Small Flocks.
A few of the large poultry raisers,
particularly those within easy reach
of tiie large eastern markets, make a
practice of raising a hundred or so
guineas each year, but the great major
ity of guineas are raised in small
flocks of from 10 to 25 on the farms of
the Middle West and of tiie South.
The highest prices for guineas are
paid in the large eastern markets.
Poultrymen who are near those mar
kets, or who have developed a trade
among private customers, receive
prices that make tills Industry very
profitable. Wholesale prices In New
York usually range from $1 to sl.flo
per pntr for dressed spring guineas.
They are marketed late in the summer
when they weigh from one to one nnd
one-half pounds when two nnd one-half
months of age, and also throughout the
full, when the demand Is for heavier
birds.
Guinea liens usually begin to lay In
April or May, those In tiie South lay
ing earlier than those In the North.
From 20 to .'lO, and often more eggs,
are laid before tlie guinea hen be
comes broody, at which time she can
be broken of her broodiness easily by
removing the eggs from the nest, when
she will soon begin laying again. If
not allowed to sit. guinea hens will
continue to Iny throughout tiie sum
mer, laying from 40 to 00, and In some
cases 100 eggs during the season.
Persistent Layers.
As profitable egg producers guinea
hens cannot compete with ordinary
APPARATUS THAT SEPARATES
PARASITES FROM THE SOIL
Ingenious Flotation Device
of Dr. Cobb Is Valuable.
(Preparptl by th* United Btntes Department
of Agriculture.)
In studying the nemns which exist
In the soil nnd which, in many cases,
cause diseases of plants such ns root
knot nnd certain rots, there has been
much difficulty In separating the or
ganisms from tiie soil. Most of these
threadlike parasites are extremely
small and cannot be picked out by
ordinary methods; neither can they
be washed out readily. However, Dr.
N. A. Cobb of the United States De
partment of Agriculture has devised
an ingenious flotation apparatus
which affords valuable aid In remov
ing nemas from a sample of soil.
The apparatus consists essentially
of a hollow cylinder several Inches In
diameter and three nr four feet high,
tapering for about a foot to a small
opening at the bottom and provided
with a spout near tiie top. This cyl
inder Is fastened to a circular rotat
ing table or frame which Is turned

Mississippi Girls Work
for Pure Bred Poultry
Pure bred poultry Is receiving en
couragement In Mississippi through
the Interest of a leading merchant In
Laurel, Jones county, who gave twen
ty settings of pure bred Rhode Island
Red eggs to twenty “4H” poultry
club members. These girls were re
quired to raise as many as possible of
the chicks hatched and keep all ex
cept one pullet, which was returned
to the donor. The twenty pullets
which came back were made Into five
pens, to each of which a cook was
added. The five pens were then given
to five other girls in the county, who
were to own the chickens. Each of
these girls, however, promised to
send In a setting of eggs to he dis
tributed in turn to other girls.
Eighteen of the original girls suc
ceeded with the project, according to
a report received by the United States
Department of Agriculture. The two
who failed were allowed to try again.
This plan has proved an excellent
menn of Interesting club girls in the
hens, but during the Intter part of the
spring nnd during the summer they
are persistent layers. The eggs are
smalleY than hen’s eggs and conse
quently bring lower prices, being
graded as small eggs. The chief claim
to profitableness on the farm Is the
demand for the fowl by trie eastern
markets for supplying tiie hotel de
mand for 'a wild game substitute.
Their noisy, never-ending, harsh cry
which is often cause for their unpopu
larity on the farm Is really n point
in favor of keeping a few of them, -as
they are excellent sentries, giving
warning of marauders In the poultry
yard. Their pugnacious disposition,
while sometimes causing disturbances
among other poultry, also makes them
show fight against hawks and other
common enemies, so that guineas some
times are kept as guards over the
poultry yard.
