nounces to’ the farmers of Texjgs its
offer of $10,1)00 in gold for :’the larg-
est yields of certain crops ‘raised in
the state during 1912, as fo]low$:
CLASS A
For Model Farms Demonstrating Con-
servation, Rotation and .Diversifi-
cation.
The congress hopes to induce the
intelligent operation of a demonstra-
tion farm in every neighborhood in
tile state, which will by practical re-
sults prove to the people the necessity
for and the ‘value of conservation, ro-
tation and diversification by
and actually plowing under a
ous crop, say cowpeas, on one-fourth
(and’a different fourth)s of ;the land
in cultivation each year. In this way,
once in four years, at least, 411 of the
land will have a splendid application
of 3green fertilizer (hat will supply
the necessary humus and draw vast
stores of nitrogen from the inexhausti-
ble supply of the atmosphere^. If this
purpose can be accomplished a^tjvon-
derful stride will have been made in
practical agricultural education-I and
conservation. It therefore offers:
For the largest combined yields of
merchantable crops, cost of piroduction
considered] raised on ten adores, di-
vided into.-foiir twro and one-half acre
plots; on yie first plot cowpeias to be
grown, and to be plowed under when
matured; the rental of the ground,
the cost of the seed and of cultivation
to be refunded to the prizei-winning
contestants', on,the second pjot kaffir
corn or milo rrfeize; oh the third plot
cotton; on the . fourth plot Indian
corn; First prize, $1000;' second
prize, $750; third prize, $500*; fourth
prize, $250; for the twenty-five next
best result’s, $100 each; twenty-nine
prizes in all, amounting to $5#00.
The crops mentioned must tie grpwn
in the order named or tbe respective
plots, and these must together consti-
tute one solid tract or body of land
containing ten acres. ,; 1 _ ; f
When the pea crop is' at ijs best,
and .on the day it is- to be plowed un-
der, each contestant, with; the assis-
tance of two neighbors/shalj cut a
plot ten feet square, that is a fair
average of the two and one-ha!lf acres.
He shall weigh the product of thfs
plot and make a report of it] as the
number of pounds of peas aid vine
actually plowed under will be consid-
ered m tfreTproduction of-, the ten
acres. This contest is open to every-
body. • | j

Cultivation of Milo Maize and Kaffir
Corn Recommended.
Every farq^r in the state of Texas,
it matters not in what section he
lives, is advised to raise each year a
moderate amount of milo maize and
kaffir corn. These are of the sorghum
family, and are drouth resistant. They
will wait for the rain, and grow and
mature when it comes, while, Indian
corn, under like circumstances, will
die; in point of value as food for all
kinds of stock-, in both grain and
roughness, they will average to be
fully as valuable per acre as Indian
corn. If you had intended to plant
twenty acres in Indian corn, put five
acres of the ground in kaffir corn, or
milo maize, and the other fifteen acres
in Indian corn, and note results.
General Conditions.
The crops in each of . the above
classes must be grown on one plot or
tract of land of the required acreage,
on the same farm, under one manage-
ment, and without irrigation except
in Class E.
Competition in each class is open
to men, women, boys and girls, except
in Classes B and C, which are limited
to boys and girls under 20 years of j
age on January 1, 1912.
A contestant is pot required to do
all the work himself necessary to
produce hi? crop, but he must have
control and exercise personal super-
vision over it.
qualified to do so may
enter in any one or all of the above
classes, an dthey may make’ as mahy
entries in- each class as
Each contestant must so describe the
location of his land that an inspec-
tor may easily find it.
Full and regular crop reports, on
tn-inks to be furnished for that pur-
port msut be made to. tbe congress
by each contestant on the first of each
month, from March to October, in-
clusive, and failure to make reports
for two months in succession will be
eonsideredj as notice that the contes-
tant has withdrawn. A careful rec-
ord must be kept of how the crop is
cultivated, the cost of seed,
labor, fertilizer^ (if any), and every
other item of expense incurred in
making it. The contestant’s personal
abor must -be calculated at the rate
of ten cents per hour, the labor of
each horse used at five cents per
hour, and each * two-horse load of]
stable manure at two dollars.
The land upon which the crop is ;
grown must ■ be • measured in such a
way as to be approximately correct.
The measurement of the land and
the crop yiekf in each, class must be
proven by the affidavits of the con-
testant and two disinterested witness-
es; tpon blanks to be furnished for
that purpose. I
No application to enter any of the
contests will be received after April |
1, 1912.
Every contestant must agreq not to
vom-
its
cal crops, under exactly the same con-
ditions. as offered x*by the congress,
should be offered in each county and j
locality, to the end that contestants
may have an opportunity to win both
a state and a county or local prize, j
or failing to secure a state prize may )
win a local prize. The congress re- j
quests that it be advised promptly of
all prizes so offered. Every landlord !
is requested to co-operate with his j
tenants who enter this contest in I
Class A, by remitting the rent and
the cost qf production on the two and
one-half acers planted in cowpeas, as
the land receives all of the benefits
in this instance, and the soils fertility
is conserved and increased.
• All patriotic and unselfish citizens
o( the state are respectfully urg?d to
co-operate in inducing farmers every-
where ot enter these contests and to
keep in close touch- with contestants
in the several localities. Full infor-
mation and entry blanks for the con-
test will be sent to anyone upon ap-
plication to the Texas Industrial Con-
gress at Dallas.

Poke-and Semi-Poke Shapes Continue

It is difficult for a woman past her
first youth to resist the temptation of
indulging in one of the quaint poke
bonnets that are so becoming to youth-
ful faces, but she will find one of the
larger flaring shapes more appro-
priate. For young girls the semi-poke

rough felt, lined with black velvet and.
had an oddly shaped upstanding black
velvet bow at the back. A dash of
color was given by a tiny bunch of'
most brilliant red roses, that were al-
most flame color, perched high on the
side back of the crown.
White hats retain their favor, but
are best liked untrimmed, particular-
ly when of rich white beaver.

line. If one wishes the more elaborate
effect of two “falls” of lace let the sec-
ond be just far enough above to let
the drooping lace just overlap the
“silt” from which the lower jabot
comes.
A very pretty variation could be
made to match embroidered collar and
cuffs by having jabot ends like this to
match, but unless the linen used is of
the filmiest the jabot should be scant-
ily plaited to avoid a bunch effect.

Slippers and pumps for street wear

are madq of satin and with their thin. "
soles, trim lines and high heels,

boots are of patent leather, with tops
of suede or satin, and for ordinary
afternoon wear there are well cut

of stitched patent leather. With her
velvet costume the smart woman may
wear white glace gloves, though just
