AS TO foremost fashions for sum
mer, costumes of black or
dark sheers such as silk chiffons,
marquisettes, organza and hand
some nets are carrying first hon
ors.
Your wardrobe may be as you
supposed replete with chic, but if
it be sans one of the beguilingly
styled dark sheers better send an
immediate S.O.S. call in to your
dressmaker or to your smartest
store in town or to whoever caters
to your sartorial needs. Telling
you, we are, that without a suit or
a dress of some one or other of
these silk sheers or nets in black
or in brown, navy or dubonnet red
or deep purple dye your summer
dress program will be sadly lack
ing indeed. We might add that
black is the favorite of them all.
Especially are fascinating things
being done with redingote fashions
made of silk sheers that are thin
to the point of transparency since
they are designed to be worn over
either a dress or slip in a solid
bright color or a gay print. See
the charming and chic ensemble to
the right in the picture. It con
veys the idea most eloquently.
Here a black silk chiffon redingote
with the new circular-cut hemline
is posed over a pink silk moire
slip. Very French in feeling is
this most winsome 1936 afternoon
dresses. Note the black silk taffeta
applique of roses on the redingote.
The corsage of huge twin roses
accurately repeats the pink tone of
the silk slip. Narrow velvet rib
bon ties about the waist and trims
the very lovely pink panama hat
worn with this costume.
While we are on the subject of
black silk chiffon and its im
portance in the summer style pic
ture it might be well to mention
the new skirts of black chiffon
which are the smartest ever for
evening, worn with a tunic or
jacket-blouse done in flamboyantly
colored flowered print. These
skirts are cut full circular and
their hemline measures yards. Yet
with all this fullness you are not
made aware of the fact as the
skirt is styled to fit about the hips
in slenderizing sleekness gradually
and gracefully leading into soft un
dulations about the hemline. You
will find a skirt of this description
to be a real asset in your summer
clothes collection. Have in reserve
a shirtwaist blouse of black net al-
so a decoUette bodice of self black
chiffon —an economical way to ac
quire a wardrobe of smart formals
for varied occasion.
If you have an urge for color
you will find joy in a costume that
poses a redingote of dubonnet red
silk chiffon or organza over a slip
of gorgeous flower print. The col
or effect is beyond the telling in
word or picture. It requires the
evening lights to glorify it.
Could anything in the way of a
daytime costume be smarter and
more to be coveted than the jacket
and-dress twosome to the left in
the illustration! If so we have not
discovered it. You may be in
terested in knowing that this en
semble is of royal lineage in that
it is a creation by no less a noted
designer than the personal dress
maker to Queen Mary. It came
over on the R. M. S. Queen Mary
as did a whole fashion load of
stunning modes. The dress is per
fect for afternoon wear on warm
summer days, made as it is of
cool Tudor-brown twytex net. The
finely pleated and tucked jabot is
of white silk net, and the loose
coat is of brown crossbar twytex.
The story of net as it unfolds in
the summer style program is prov
ing a most fascinating one. Noth
ing smarter or more practical has
centered the style stage than the
jacket dresses tailored of cool and
comfortable and chic looking nets
either in black-or the stunning new
rich dark colors.

Glamorous Apparel Wins
Approval of Parisiennes
For the polo matches, the races
and late afternoon occasions of sum
mer in Paris, it is now the smart
est fashion to wear frocks and hats
of the glamorous variety. Sheer
fabrics like organdie are altogether
enchanting and feminine for frocks
with wide and sweeping skirts and
hats with wide and flattering brims.
These decorative full • skirted
frocks, with little capes or puffed
sleeves, have not by any means re
placed the tailored evening costume
with a jacket, an important fashion
for parties from five o’clock on.
Daylight dining will enhance this
tailored idea. v
THE BULLETIN
MOLTING HENS CUT
OUT LAYING EGGS
Birds Go on Eating, Run
ning Up the Expenses.
By Roy S. Dearstyne, Head North Caro
lina State College Poultry Depart
ment.—WNU Service.
Early molting hens, which begin
to drop their feathers in the early
summer, are not worth keeping in
good poultry flocks.
These birds stop laying when
they begin to molt, but they go
right on eating feed and running
up expenses.
They do not lay as many eggs
as late molters and the eggs they
do lay are produced at a time when
eggs are plentiful and prices are
low.
Since early molting is an inherit
able characteristic, they will pass
this trait on to their offspring if
left in the flock and used for breed
ing purposes.
In hot weather, it is especially
important, that only infertile eggs
be produced for home consumption
or marketing, as they have a much
greater keeping quality than fertile
eggs.
Except in the breeding season,
roosters should be kept away from
the hens. And only the best roost
ers, those with the ability to trans
mit good qualities to their off
spring, should be kept for breed
ing.
If eggs are collected several
times a day during the summer,
and stored immediately in a cool
place, they will keep much better.
Wire baskets which permit air to
circulate freely among the eggs
are ideal for the storage room.
But even under ideal conditions,
eggs should not be kept in storage
any longer than necessary. A
poultryman who gets a reputation
of marketing only fresh eggs can
command good prices.
Lice and mites propagate rapid
ly in hot weather. Infested birds
soon lose their vigor and fall off
in egg production. Poultrymen
should examine their birds every
few days so they can check infesta
tions as soon as they start.
Select Cockerels Early,
Is Urged by Poultryman
Make an early start in selecting
males to be used as breeders for
next year’s poultry flock. During
the early growth period it is possi
ble to obtain information on feath
er development, growth rate, vigor
and standard qualities.
This is the suggestion of Dr. N.
F. Waters of the poultry husbandry
staff at lowa State college. The
male is extremely important to the
flock. Dr. Waters points out, since
he exerts an influence on the prog
eny of approximately 15 female
birds.
If a poultryman decides that he
will need ten cockerels for the fol
lowing breeding season, he should
start his selection when the birds
are about eight weeks old. In se
lecting these ten males Dr. Waters
recommends that about 40 of the
best birds be selected from the
flock. During the next three or
four months a careful selection and
culling should be made from these
40 males until the ten best remain.
Ration for Young Ducks
Young ducks will thrive on com
mon grains fed either whole or
mixed and ground to a coarse
meal. They will do best when
most of their feed is made into a
moist mash. They should have
cabbage or other similar green
feed and meat scrap or table
scrap, provided these are perfect
ly fresh and fed in moderation. In
summer ducks will find most of
their feed if near water but may
need some supplemental rations
when conditio. :s prevent them trim
iforagmg successfully.
