RESOLUTIONS
CONTINUED from page l
10

We recommend that the gov
eminent should formulate a
feaseable plan Ito be published
in bulletin form which will en-
courage the business interests
of farming communities, to
make the farmers stay in town
more pleasant and comfortable
such as may be afforded by club
rooms, and better stable con-
veniences and rest rooms for
tee family.
Ia.
We recommend government
aid in the initial development
of our agricultural resources
to the end that it will advance
every phase of agricultural
industry as best suited to each
section and thus make it better
fit for settlement.
Is.
We recommend that the
government cooperate with
each state to encourage capital
to develop districts fit for
settlement and that the gov
eminent plan and supervise the
development which should in
clude clearing, irrigating and
draining of land and especially
permanent good roads.
16.
We recommend that the plan
for settlement shall be under
government and state super
vision and that the settlers
shall be encouraged by long
time payments without in
terest and that the second pay
ment shall begin at the end of
the second year of crop pro-
duction.
IL.
We recommend that the
government and state encour-
age and supervise a plan to
commercialize the crop pro-
duction of every community
or district prior to settlement,
and to foster a movement to
commercialize the products in
the order established districts,
thus encouraging better farm
ing and establishing a founda-
ton for organization among
farmers to better their inter-
ests.
Is.
We recommend, that in irri-
gated and humid sections, the
government shall not allow an
Individual to exceed 40 acres
of government land.

MAR
=

For morning wear and tennis, golf
and boating, what is SO cool and sensi-
BILE as a dainty little laydown collar
finished with null tie, silk scarf OF
brooch?
The eagerness with which women
have adopted the Dutch or Puritan
collar proves conclusively that when
comfort is sought high clasping col
lars are entirely ignored.
An effective little finish for the tall
collar is simply narrow velvet ribbon
of any desired shade, finished with tas-
sells of silk or gold, or carrying a tiny
buckle near the center.
The sleeves of the lingerie blouses
and shirt-waists for next winter will
be long, with few exceptions, and
those will be for the elaborate lace
blouses to be worn with afternoon cos
tunes, for bridge, etc.

SAVE LABOR IN WASHING.
Simple and Effective Method Of
Cleansing Cotton Fabrics.

To wash all the fuzzy cotton fab
rics so much used for night dresses
for children and grown-ups, the cas-
lest way is to prepare a tub full of
good warm lather made with a mild
soap. Add the garments one by one,
but only so many at a time as will
leave a generous amount of water
over them, say six inches at least
above the clothes level Let them
soak half AN hour, then pull out the
stop cork, push the garments to one
side and let the soiled water run off.
Repeat the soaping, this time rubbing
soap directly on the soiled spots, and
let them swim in warm water for Is
minutes. Nearly all of the invisible
oil and the visible as well as invisible
dirt will by this means float off the
nap of the garments, leaving them al
most or quite clean. A good squeez-
ing and a rinsing in two waters and
the garments are perfectly clean
Much time and rubbing is thus saved.
While the clothes are soaking the
maid may attend to other household
matters.
A lump Of borax to both the cleans
ing waters is an improvement

A Unique Musicale.

A decided novelty in the way of
musicales was given recently by a
charming musician and her husband.
They have done and are doing a won
derful work for children. The invita-
tions were issued to the youthful
guests with the request to bring the
dolly they loved, the best to the doll
musicale"
The hostess was assisted by a much
beloved corn-husk dolly who belongs
to this musical household.
On the day appointed there were
over 80 dolls of various ages and sta
tions in life assembled in demure ST.
lence to listen to the following clever
program:
Dolly Lost and Dolly Found" Martin
THE Japanese Doll". Swift
sleep, Dolly, Sleep" and dance,
Doly, Dance ................ Reinecke
Dolly Goes to Sleep" "............ Goodrich
song-"I Love the Old Doll Best" .Gaynor
In Doily's Kitchen" ........... Hollander
Dolls Dance ............. Tschaikowski
Dance of the Marionettes" .......
..................... Mrs. Crosby Adams
Overture to the Marionettes". "...... .Gurlitt
song-"My Dear Jerushy" ........ Gaynor
song-'Now Go to Sleep. My Dolly.
49,, ...;.,....:..::...... Mrs. Crosby Adams
reaching Dolly to Waltz. Bartlett
Funeral March of a Marionette" .Gounod
'Poupee Valsante" .............. Poldini
Dancing Doll' Seeboeck
DOLLS Reverie". Mrs. Crosby Adams
The children were perfectly de-
lighted and took in the ideas expressed
to the great satisfaction of the hostess
1t was a revelation to find that all the
world loves a doll, as is evidenced by
the fact that ''music-makers of every
cline" have told the dolls own story
in song and rhyme"
This suggestion may be carried out
easily, as the selections are within
reach Of the average musician.

Two Outdoor Games.

These games are just the thing for
outdoor parties, which may. be given
all the month of September. The first
is called Deer Foot"
All the players are different kinds
of deer: Reindeer, elk, moose, red
deer, fallow deer or mule deer, ante
lope and fawns. For the forest trees
have pieces of paper held to the
ground with sharpened sticks, or real
trees if they are available. There must
be one less tree than deer. The extra
deer stands in the middle of the "for-
est" A leader is chosen by popular
vote or by the host, and all follow him,
skipping lightly around the forest"
Suddenly the deer in the center calls
"Deerfoot all run rapidly to a
tree for shelter. OF course the deer
in the middle is after tree, too. The
oeer who fails to find a tree is called
a snail and takes his place in the cen.
ter and the game proceeds.

Cold Cozy,

Make a "cozy" the same as for a
teapot, as it will keep the tea hot for
a long time so it will keep your milk
cold. Take a piece of oilcloth or rub
ber sheeting and fit it loosely to a
milk bottle rounding it off at the top;
do not plait or gather in any fullness
of the cloth on this inside lining, as
you will need to wipe it off to clean
it occasionally, sew up the seam, the
finished side of the cloth toward the
bottle, pad this thick on the outside
with cotton, make an outside cover
ing of oilcloth, the finished side out,
cut little round piece for the top
with strip of the cloth across it for
a handle, plait the fullness to this and
sew; put the padded lining into this
and sew together at the bottom, gath
ering the fullness of the outer cover
to the lining You may also make a
pad for the bottom, but this is not
necessary. Instruct your milkman to
put them on the milk bottles when he
delivers them. This will also keep
your milk from freezing in winter.

Wall Decorations,

For drawing-room nothing in ths
wall decoration line could be lovelier
and more novel than a wedgewood pat
tern, with the background of a paler
shade of wedgewood blue and the
medallions Of the darker shade re-
lieved with white. The woodwork and
trim of such an apartment should be
white. Either blue or that soft green
which Is a Characteristic shade OF
wedgewood pottery is effective when
used in this way. The carpet should
match and If the wedgewood design is
reproduced in the center 1t will EN-.
phasize the scheme of the decorations.

To Rid a House of Flies.

A good way to rid your house of
flies is to mix in a small watering pot
equal parts of crude petroleum, or If
that is not attainable use kerosene.
and sprinkle all outhouses, barns, gar
bage piles or drains with the mixture.
Then sprinkle the window sills and
wipe off the netting on your screens
with a cloth wet with kerosene, and
you will soon see the flies disappear.
This, too, will prevent you with being
bothered with mosquitoes, which are
SO troublesome this year.
Do this quite often during the sum-
mer months, say two or three times
week.
The kerosene not only drives the
flies away, but when the places where
they breed are sprinkled the eggs will
be destroyed and the household will
be saved from this miserable pest.
This method has been tried and
found to be excellent.

HOW TO STENCIL A WALL.
Simple Method of Securing the Most
Artistic Effects.

Very artistic effects can be secured
by stenciling wall. 1t makes a break
in the plain surface and very har-
monicus contrasts and dainty color
schemes can be worked out by the
use of stencils. To use the stencil
successfully start at one corner of the
room, press the stencil firmly against
the wall, have the material that you
are going to stencil with mixed up
ready for use, dip the ends of your
brush in this, and simply rub it
across the face of the stencil, being
careful not to get too much stuff on
the brush so that it will run back of
the stencil and blur or blot. When
you finish one section remove the stem
ell from the wall and carefully match
it foc the next
An ordinary round paint brush is as
good stencil brush as any. Tie the
bristles about half way down so that
they will not spread, and in using dip
the tips of the bristles into the tint
ing material. - Country Life in

Always Staunch
And True

The Denver Republican has al
ways avoided the fallacies and
knaveries of yellow journalism,
and its steadily increasing Circula-
ton proves conclusively that its
policy of telling the plain Truth
without exaggeration or misrepre.-
sentation, standing fast for the
Right, is heartily approved with
growing force by the intelligent
Public to which it appeals.
To'read it is a liberal Education,
and the citizen who goes without
it does a positive harm to himself,
to his family, and to the commu-
nifty.
In no other way can the invest
ment of ~ cents per day
for that is all The Republican
costs any subscriber-bring such
rich results in that knowledge
which is both Power and Pleasure.
Information, instruction and en-
tertainment fill its columns and it
leaves good taste in the mouth
of the reader.

The WiuWam.

Half Of the players hide and have
ten minutes to make their trail with
cut papers (confettD or corn. Each
Indian goes a different way. Then at
the expiration Of the time limit the
other players, who are white men,"
go on the trail and the game is to see
who can return to the wigwam first
with his Indian.
While these are supposed to be boys
games, girls enjoy them, too. 1 speak
from experience, for it was the de-
light of my childhood days to play
Indian" and 1 still thrill with genuine
terror when l think of my fear of be-
ing scalped.

Aprlcots Dried In Sugar.

Peel and cut in halves some ripe
apricots; remove the stones and weigh
the fruit Boil fruit for few minutes
in water, remove, drain and put them
in a bowl For every pound of fruit
place one pound of sugar in a kettle
with one-half pint Of water for each
pound of sugar, and boil to a soft
ball; add the apricots, let them boil
up twice, then pour them into a bowl.
Twenty-four hours later drain the ap-
ricots in sieve and dust them with
sugar; then transfer them to dish,
dust them with sugar again and place
them in cool oven, turn them, add
more sugar; continue this way until
they are dry, then wrap in paper. All
kinds of fruit except berries may be
prepared in the same way.

Homemade Lard.

Home-tried lard is much better and
sweeter, and perhaps cleaner than
that bought readymade. Leaf-lard
may be purchased of the butcher. If it
is not product of ones own farm.
1t should be tried out with care to
preserve it from scorching. A few
minutes before it is turned out from
the frying kettle into jars and while
1t is still hot. but not too hot, a tea
spoonful of salt for each quart OF fat
should be added, the lard being cooled
slowly for five minutes longer. The
salt will keep 1t sweet. The jars con-
taiaing 1t should be set in cool. dark
place.

Democratic Rally.

The Day County Democratic organ.
ization has made arrangements for a
big rally for Day county at Webster,
Saturday, August 8, when Hon. Gren-
vile Jones, formerly of Texas, now of
this state, the greatest speaker of the
day, will discuss the issues before the
American people from fair standpoint.
The committee have also made arrange
ments for Mrs. Ross, business manager
of the Sioux Falls Critic, to address the
people at this time.
For the benefit of visitors they have
arranged for an excursion tram from
Aberdeen to this city which will enable
all from the west to take advantage of
this rare opportunity.
Mr.. Jones needs no introduction as a
speaker in any section of the states, as
his reputation is world wide and people
should take this opportunity to hear one
of the best orators of the present day.
Remember the date of this great rally
and make your arrangements so that
there will be no possibility of your not
being able to attend
