IN GOWNS OF DISTINCTION
THE MATRON TRIUMPHS
' I ?' . " ?
MKRELY to think of h dress, for
dress-up times, gives one & crepey
feeling, it appears. For crepes, In
tfctir various weaves, remain unrivaled
and so far, even unchallenged. Every
where in afternoon and evening gather
ings they predominate, making a pleas
ant color harmony In shades of blue,
belce, gray, green, rust and brown,
with black interspersed rather plenti
fully among them. No fabric Is hetter
adapted to the demands of the matron
who looks for long and graceful lines
and Is devoted to clever and original
Ideas in designing.
A gown that will score a success on
every one of these requirements ap
pears in the handsome model pictured.
It Is made of French gray crepe and,
except for gray beads, the material Is
sufficient unto itself In Interpreting the
present mode superbly. Narrow folds
of the crepe, dotted with beads, are
simple as can be, but they contrive an
original and beautiful adornment. Set
In between two wider folds they fornf)
the girdle. This gown may be worn
over a sheer, lace-trimmed slip (short
er In length) in flesh color, or in white
posed over a light pink undersllp.
Beaded trimmings, used with fine re
straint, fringes and trimmings made of
the material, characterise these crep?
gowns. They obey the dictates of
fashion gracefully, with skirts ankle
length and low waist lines. But the
uneven hem line and such transparent
devices as appear In the gown "pictured,
betray that the shorter skirt Is held
in fond remembrance. Sleeves are
endlessly varied, neck lines fairly high,
all conspiring to please the woman
who has learned to value distinction.

THE SWEET POTATO INDUSTRY
Maximum .Production of High Quality
Potatoes Essential.
Clemson Cofllege, June 5. ? F< w
crops are so wefl adapted to South
Carolina soil awd can bo so easily
worked into tho . 3) resent fanning
.system as the moist flesh Southern
sweet potato. However, the methods
of growing, harvesting, curing and
marketing n? ' ipracttccrl in formrr
years atre not acceptable iii> com
mercializing ami establishing sweet
potato growing as an Industry.
South Carolina now produces an
nually a pproxlma tely 1 0 ,0 0 0 ,<> 0 0
buShel s of sweet i>otutoes, or in the
nelgltlrorihood of -10 per cent. o? tbe
'totad annual production of the pota
to producing states of tlio United States
hut South Carollmn puts on tbe com
mercial markets rather less than 10
l?er cent, of her production.
Tbe commercial markets, mainly the
northern markOts, are accepting only
tbe highest quality product from the
storage houses ami green or summer
shipments. Tlierefore the consuming
power of <the lastilng and economical
market is limited to very early sum
mer shipments and the highest quality
storage house potatoes rather than
those potatoes kept In the old-fashioned
dirt hills or lm?k9. Hence, growers
and prospective growers of sweot po
tatoes must realize the vital impor
tance of quality production, together
with the necessity of marketing local
ly and feeding to livestock the off
grades for Just as much expense is
involved in the marketing of a low
grade product as In marketing one of
the highest quality.
A profitable market may l>e hajj for
off grades by supplying farm hee<ls
?nd local markets and by feeding to
livestock. In short, at present profit
able sweet potato growing mi^ht
said to be contingent upon combining
this as an Industry with other diversi

dairy herds, hog raising, beef cattle
and horses and mules.

The wife should hav^e gone to Vas

Arkansas
wai nam
ed utter the
river which
flows diagon
ally through
this state and
Is one of the
chief tributaries of the Missis- j
?ippl. It is said that the early ]
settlers found ia this territory, ;
an fiwtlan trlhw nnu>fli? JLrkai>^MT ,
but the actual meaning of the j
word Is not known. It probably <
has Houje relation to the word \
Kansas. There has been much |
confusion as to the correct pro- {
nuiu-latlon of Arkansas; To r?- ]
wove this as far as possible a <
resolution wos passed by the J
state senate in 1881 which specl- i
Ofd that the true pronunciation ]
was "Ar-kan-saw."
Oriulually Arkunsas was a !
part of the Louisiana Purchase. ;
Its first settlement was made by \
the French about 1685. Kxcept j
for the few years during which j
by secret, treaty It was ceded to <
Spain, it remained under French j
rule, until purchased by the Unl- j
ted States in 1808. For nearly \
ton years after this, it was a j
part of Louisiuna territory. With i
the admission of the State ot \
Louisiana in 1812 this northern
section was formed Into the Mis
souri territory. In 1810 thero'
was another partition and Ar
kansas territory wtas created,
which included the present state
and what later was called Indian
territory.
Due to the reports of an early |
explorer named Tike, whp \dslted, <
this region in 1800, the lncor- 1
rec't idea was generally accepted 1
that most of the expanse of
plains east of the Rockies was
a vast desert. This idea per
sisted to such an extent that as
late aB 1850 the western plains
were called in the school geog
raphies "The "Great American
Desert." Adventurous settlers,
especially from the South, found
conditions in Arkunsas quite oth
erwise, however, and by 1888
Arkansas was admitted as the
twenty-fifth state of the Union
with an area of 53,385 square
miles.
The natural -resources of the
state are considerable. There
are the mineral springs of me
dicinal value, which have been
placed under governmental con
trol at Hot Springs.
