INDIAN FURNITURE

IS SUMMERS FAD

FOR THE BUNGALOWS

Indian splint furniture is the latest fadfor the summer bungalow

This furniture despite Its somewhatbulky and rude appearance is by nomeans inexpensive for the splint chairbacks and seats are mounted in framesoC weathered oak and the strips of galvanised seel cleverly woven throughthe splints make the furniture verydurable and solid

To match these big smartlookingchairs and low seats there are splinttopped tables and footstools and splintwoven scrap baskets and the very uptodate bungalow will haveeled walls divided off by uprights ofweathered oak A room of this sortrecently desired by a clever womandecorator suggested the woodsy appearance of a mountain Interior Therewore hangings of coarse canvas runwith colored leather thongs and edgedwith colored bead fringe

Bits of dullcolored potterystood about and even the lampshadewas unconventional being made ofraffia in an open pattern over aJapanese rice paper

Capital Is MarketFor Two Products

Of Texas Farmer

Washington would not seem at firstto be an Inviting market to the Texasfanner yet tomato and onion growers-In the Lone Star State are beginning-to compete seriously with CarolinaGeorgia and Florida farmers In sellingthese two products The presence today in the local market of a largeshipment of Texas tomatoes served tobring this competition sharply Into viewInquiry elicited the information that theTexas farmer now regards Washington-more favorably than he did In formeryears

While the Texas tomatoes shippedhere as a matter of fact do not

the sales of the famous Norfolk andEastern Branch tomatoes yet they docut into the sales of those from theCarolinas Georgia and Florida Theyare not nearly so sweet andas our varieties nor dothey grow 10 such size If they wereIn tho market at the same with

Norfolk and Branch tomatoeswould be a drug on the commissionmans hands

The Texas grower probably realizesthis and he Is to be earlybird and catoh the worm
