Built around the play "Nothing to
Wear but Clothes." the semi-annual
utile show of the Chicago Garment
juanuiacturers- Association is con
ceded by every one to be the great
est style show ever held In America.
This show is being beld at the aud
itorium 'theatre, under the capable
direction of the stage manager for
the Metropolitan Opera Company of
.new york ana Chicago.
Two hundred garments, portraying
fashions of the moment, are being
worn by fifty of the country's best
professional models In one of the
rlcheBt settings ever given a style re
view. Several members of the grand
. opera company are taking part In the
production, which adds to its Interest
and artistic effect. The estimated
cost of the production is $20,000.00
with a company numbering more
than one hundred artists.
Good music is a feature of the
show, and while the auditorium seats
four thousand people, seats are at a
premium. The auditorium, which is
famous for its wonderful staging fa
cilities, is showing some of the most
beautiful and artistic scenery that
has ever been seeTi at a style show.
When artists like Josef Urban, the
painter of the scenery for the Follies,
Is Interested, the beauty and artistic
effect is assured.
The musical comedy, "Nothing to
Wear but Clothes," affords the mod
els an opportunity to feature clothes
which are suitable to be worn at all
times of the day and evening. For
the staging of this comedy fifty pro
fessional models, renowned for their
beauty and ability to disp lay clothes,
and twenty-four chorus girls and
men from the grand opera eompany
are assisting sixteen specialists in
singing and dancing, presenting one
of the most unique and artistic en
tertainments imaginable.
Among the unique features to be
Introduced and which adds immeas
urably to the success of the entertain
ment is the skating scene on real ice,
also a bathing scene In water, show
ing - Palm Beach, Florida. In the
ball room scene the models wear
4100,000 worth of real diamonds and
pearls. Luclle, Lady Duff Gordon, of
world wide fame, is displaying some
of her own costumes and creations.
, The first scene in "Nothing to
Wear but Clothes," is laid at the
Arfikenorth Country Club. The exter
Siot scene of the club affords the mod-
els an opportunity to appear In
sporting attire as well as in, suits and
afternoon dresses. Here are shown
the fashions of the hour in hats and
r sweaters of brilliant hue, worn with
separate skirts and waists to harmon
ize. White skirts, striped sKiris ana
v kirts of Bolid color with pockets and
'buttons and trimmings of bands are
iuhowu in th most fascinating assort-
. tnenL The brilliant colors of sport
iine attire and Its extreme popularity
make this country club scene one of
tfihe most attractive of the evening.
The second scone of the comedy Is
ohHp MimilHr to the first, but the
ihlrd is the skating scene at Lake
wood. New Jersey. The models for
' this scene are professional skaters,
who wear brilliant colors, making the
scene very gorgeous and attractive.
The fourth scene Is a bathing beach
at Palm HeRch. Florida. Here the
xnotiels wear bathing suits, caps and
hosiery and shoes In all the faBhlona

Oat of Town Until Yon
See What We Can Do
skirts made of gorgeous silks, nets
and laces trimmed extravagantly in
spangles and beaded trimmings, were
never more beautiful.
The bodices of ball room dresses
show quite an Inclination to follow
the lines of the natural figure, while
the skirts are flared In an extrava
gant manner. In most cases they
are short, and in many cases extreme
ly so, which necessitates the wearing
of embroidered hose and dainty slip
pers. This scene also affords the
models an opportunity to wear even
ing wraps, which for richness of ma
terials and beauty of design have
seldom been equaled.
The sixth scene is a palace on San
Francisco bay. In this scene after
noon dresses, dressy suits and coats
as well as beautiful millinery suita
ble to the occasion are worn to ex
cellent advantage.
The dresses show quite an Inclina
tion to favor bright colors. Georgette
crepe, chiffon, taffeta In both plain
and fancy weaveB. crepe de chine
and nets enter largely into the de-
sientne of spring dresses. The corn-
bin ne of soft taffeta ana sneer ma
terials, preferably Georgette crepe, is
noticeable feature of many or tne
smartest models. In the majority of
cases skirts are full and waists are
closer fitting. Overdress effects,
draperies and any effect to give baur-
fancy Is resorted to this season,
skirts are cut circular, gored and
pleated In many attractive variations.
The tendency to trim skirts is pro
nounced.
Altogether' the styles for the com
ing season are entirely new, entirely
becoming and entirely heautirui.

TO ERADICATE CATTLE TICKS
Department of Agriculture Will Ce-
Operate with State or County
Authorities in Battle.
'Ticks take as much as 200 pounds
of blood a year from a 1-000-pound
teer; cut the milk production of
cows nearly BO per cent; reduce the
home price of meat animals from one
half to one cent a pound; prevent
bankers from lending money to pro
mote the live stock Industry; keep
down fertility and production of
terms; and make the southern farm
ers pay $50,000 a year to supply the
never-ceasing barbecue of blood."
Thus Carl Vrooman, assistant secre
tary of agriculture of the United
States, remarked in telling of the new
tick campaign the government has
started.
'Dip the tick" Is the slogan which
.he department of agriculture has
DippingTick-lnfetted Cattle.
adopted for a special campaign against
the cattle tick. Blazoned in big let
ters this legend will stand out In star
tllng relief upon a two-colored poster
which the department proposes to dis
play in every post office in the tick-In
tested country.
"It costs less than 50 cents a head
to dip the cattle of a county and free
that county from quarantine," Mr.
Vrooman said, "and enable its cattle
to compete with free cattle at the
stockyards. But before the ticks can
be cleaned from a county the people
in that county, by themselves or with
the aid of the state, must build dip
ping vats which cost from $50 to $100
each, and must supply arsenic, which
costs about five cents per head, to
make the arsenical bath that kills the
ticks. The people must then join in
aeeina: that every steer or cow is
dipped a sufficient number of times
to kill all the ticks infesting the cat
tie, and prevent the seed ticks in the
grass from finding a new boarding
house."
The department will co-operate with
a county that is ready to aip ticks uy
sending its expert field men to super
vise the building of vats, to prepare
the arsenical bath and to take charge
of the dipping of cattle. The people
of a county and state, however, have
to provide the small, amount of money
necessary for the actual dipping.
PROPER SHELTER FOR SHEEP
Imoossible to Keep Animal's Fleece
Dry If Not Given Some Protection
During the .Winter.
It was fo. merly quite generrliy
houKht that tne sheep's wool a.To:.'.t3k
It all the promotion necessary during
he winter. If the fleece could be kept
dry it probably would retain enough
body heat l keep the sheep warm,
but this is I ai possible without shelter
When a fleece once becomes wet it
takes a long time for it to dry out,
especially If the weather is cold.
Much energy that would otherwise
be used for growth or fattening niv.st
he used for eruporating this water.
The wet fiu.:e also gives rise to un
healthy conditions.
In Great Britain little housing is
necessary, but in meat places in Amer
ica this would result in severe losses.
CORRECT FEEDING OF SWINE
One Scientist Gives Voluminous Fig
ures, While Another Says Let
Porkerti 8uit Themselves.
A well-knowu scientific reaearch pro-
fessor spent years in experimentation
to ascertain the correct amounts of
protein, carbo-hydrates and water to
feed hogs of varying ages. .
He formulated voluminous, feeding
tables for farmers to follow that would
cause (be average feeder to lie awake
nights to decipher.
Now comes another investigator
who produces better weights and bet
ter profits with hogs by simply allow
ing the porkers to feed and water
themselves Just as their tastes dictate.

In introducing tliUnew Itumely model we helleie that we reMnt a one-man outfit which em
bodies all the necex.sary iialifi-ntioiiN for a successful small farm tractor.- It In a one-man outfit in
every sense; a tractor deslunt-d for use mi the small farm, where a tractor of light welKht, convenient
handling and cconoiii) t desired for field and Itelt work.
In the first place, this new Rumely Tractor is a general utility tractor, capable of efficiently
and economically handling not only plowing, but all the power Jobs, tractive and belt, encountered
on the average farm. ' '
This tractor, besides plowing, will pull your harrows and discs, drills, packers, binders; it will
haul your belt machines from one setting; to another, haul loads over helds and on the road. As for
belt work, it will run a small size grain separator, operate your silage cutter, shelter, feed mill andr
saw rig In short, handle every and all power Jobs within its power.
FOK ri.OWINti
As a one-man power plowing outfit the Rumely General Utility Tractor meets all requirements
for efficient work, simplicity and ease of operation. Tractor and plows are combined In one machine,
and the control of the entire outfit is centered in front of the operator's seat.
The above illustration clearly shows the arrangement of plows -two bottoms, attached to the
frame by means of a swinging draw bar, all mechanism and plows directly in view of the operator.
The plows are automatically raised and lowered the simple pressure of the foot on the trip raises or
lowers the plows at the will of the operator. N
The plowa ure hitched to one side so that all three wheels are on unplowed ground at the
same time the load is so unbalanced that there is no draft on the tractor.
The depth of the furrow can be changed without leaving the seat or stopping the tractor. When
. used for other purposes than plowing, the plows and plow frame are detached. It U a simple mutter
for one man to quickly take them off.
