method requires little attention, and
most ?f tee discussion la given oyer to
tt* renting of dairy terms on which
the landlord gets a half share of the re
ceipts. Host terms of this class are
[noted on some sort of share basis
but there la a great deal of variation,
depending upon the financial situation
,of tee renter, the condition of the land,
the interest the landlord takes In
tee development of the herd, the dis
posal teat la made of the miiw
other dairy products.
Meny Problems Brought Out.
renting of terms on which
dairying la an Important enterprise,
?sys the author, brings out problems
- that are hardly known where only such
crops aa corn, tobacco, cotton, and
?nail grains are grown. Buildings
?nd fences become Important consid
erations, and also the division of land
between pasture and feed crops Ques
tions arise concerning the alas quality
and ownership of the herd. IlMTWy ou

sary teat the landlord take aa inter

districts that have been developed af
ter years of trial should be ef ?'t
anee not only to men newly become
landlerds and tenants In these dis
tricts, hat to those engaged in the
same hnalneee In other districts. Vex
teg Problems may be deered up by
consulting this bo lied-down experience,
which Includes such things as the own
ership of tee cattle, the furnishing of
? man labor, supervision and assistance
by tee landlord, machinery and tools,
work animals the division of receipts
ftom swine and poultry, the rental ef
pasture, and the keeping of accounts.
Another Interesting feature qf the
bulletin is the part dealing with the
practices that have been worked eat
to satisfactorily handle the situation
when the tenant leaves tee farm?tee
division of Jointly owned live stock,
payment for foed left on tee term,
and for winter grain, tell plowing, ma
nure hauling, and Improvements made

sions of the length of notice given of

Renting far Caen.
It waa found that most good dairy
terms are rented on some sort of (hare
haste and teat It Is usually tee smaller,
and poorer terms that are rented for
cash, but there are some owners, often
those living at a distance from their
land or those knowing little about
terming, who Had tee cash arrange
ment the best, even though the farms
may be good enough to attract tee best
tenants However, tee condition of
the buildings and fences on many
oaah-rented terms end the difficulty of
arranging for betterments handi
cap the dairyman on such places. Borne
land owueis who rent for cash en
* courage better tenants and better
terming by leasing a herd of cows
with the land, but there are very few
who fellow jhls practice.

HATS, BAGS, PARASOLS MATCH
India Shawl Used for Sports Frock,
Affording Quaint and Interact
ing Outfits.
Quaint looking sports frocks aro
made of India shawls with hats, bags
and parasols to match. The Idea of
the matching set, consisting of a hat,
bag and parasol is one that has been 1
exploited for several reasons by varl-l
ens French modistes, notably among
them Elaine of the Bus do la Pair.
Bat this season's vogue for everything ]
printed, especially In Indian and Per
sian design, brings with It an excel
lent opportunity for working out en
tirety new variations of an old idea.
Susy, a French milliner who has
been quite successful in recent months,
makes very attractive sets, consisting
of hats and bags of flowers mounted
on foundations of net It Is but logi
cal that the Interesting developments
taking place in fabrics should have a
strong Influence on millinery, last as
wa have the printed and embroidered
fabrics in dress, so we have them In
hate There are the straw cloths,
braided and embroidered, as well, aa
organdie and other cotton materials
painted and embroidered with wool
and soutache braid.
In theee as well as in an other mil
linery the tortoise shell tints are
prominent Host effective hats are
made In these shadea, braided and
embroidered In darker tones of brown.
Sometimes braiding la combined with
embroidery. Interesting things are be
ing dona to the brims of large hats,
such as turning them up sharply at
different angles. Sometimes the hat la
turne<J up directly In the back after a
vary old-fashioned method. Again the
brim may be folded back to the crown

TIPS OF TRIMMINGS
Silver and black embroidery that Is
banded In gray fox and lined with sil
ver-colored satin.
Large bows of stiver ribbon trim
aome of the newest bats. They are
mushroom-shaped and brighten-up tai
lored suits or dark wraps.
Very soft, light leather In vivid col
ors Is used to trim sport dresses of
xcrepe de chine. Sometimes It Is mo
ployed to make the monogram and belt
Outwork self-trlmmlng la being used
on many of the heavy wool and silk
gowns Instead of embriodery. It Is
seen frequently on coats as well as on
gowns.
The most unusual cuffs seen on any
of the new frocks ere of organdie with
ruffle* of gold lace. They torn beck
from the wAat to tee elbow with a de
cided flare.
Very highly gtaaed ribbon la exten
sively used both In millinery and on
costumes. Dancing frocks show rows
and rows of It decorating the new long
skirts.
An overblouaa of gray crepe da
chine achieves something original in
the way of decoration by adding a
fringe of green seeds about the collar,
cuffs and hem.
The embroidery seen on the new
frocks for spring Is done In line thread
In very small, due designs. This la en
Important detail on many of the smart
est creations.

MEATS, best grade, and ;
Fresh at all times. My spec- I
ialty is to offer first class

Amusements will be of the highest type ever offered in this section. The
largest Carnival ever presented in eastern Carolina will hold sway on the Mid

Free Acts between the races in front of the Grand Stand are the best that we

best ever run in the section.
The night program will consist of free acts and double the amount of fire
