QUEER IDEAS ABOUT FOOD.

Slowly but surely modern enlightenment Is reie-
eating to oblivion the foolish and often costly super
stitons which have been passed down from cen
fury to century OF those, however, that finger Is
the superstition about the spiing of salt and the
sure coming of i'll luck-the result of the painting
of a celebrated picture which showed that Judas, at
the Last Supper, sat before overturned salt Gel
lar Then there is the idea against thirteen at table
because there were Christ and his twelve apos-
ties around that board in the upper room at the
supper which was followed soon by our Lord $
death, and that of Judas, too.
In some European countries i'll luck is said to
follow the person who stirs any liquid in pan from
east to west In Scotland persons when baking oat'
cakes break piece off and throw it in the fire to
appease evil agencies. Still another custom in that
land is to make birthday cake with nine knobs.
then of nine of the assembled company when the cake
comes hot out of the oven, each breaks one knob
off and throwing it behind him says: This give
to Thee, Fox, Eagle Wolf" etc.
In some countries it is considered unlucky to give
mince pie to guest-it should be asked for. Like
wise a mince pie should never be cut with knife
but held whole with the fingers and eaten that way
Also to eat many mince pies as possible at as
many different houses before Christmas, it is be-
lieved will insure so many happy months for the
eater.

10 work on and are absorbed in the discussion
blending.
The looms are much the same that grandmoth-
ers mother knew The size has been somewhat
reduced, but the principle has not altered any
In fact looms in all countries as far back
they can be traced, have the mechanical de-
vices that are ingeniously elaborated to-day in
the high power carpet factories
Weaving, no doubt, originated when some prime
val creature plated his her hair, and then
tried crossing three strands of heavy grass
over the other. From mats and baskets the
icea of interlacing wool threads and cloth was
invented. Weaving in some form or other is one
of the earliest signs of civilization.
1t might be argued that weaving is not evil
dence of the advancement of intellectually. The
wonderful shawls which come from the far east,
and which we are quite unable to initiate, are
made by peasant popuace. And whoever has
turned over pictures illustrating the manufacture
of Turkish and Persian rugs is much impressed
by the uncouthness of the makers as by the sym
metry and imagination of the designs.
Crossing the Great Divide of this continent
the Navajo and Moji Indians and the Mexican
blanket weavers to the south, are not leaders of
intellectual thought, though they have established
blanket weaving industrial art. The old
squaws are more wrnkled than winsome. This
isn't the fault of the weaving, however and there
is gainsaying that rugs and tapestries and
draperes and all the other products of the loom
into which individuality is woven nave reac-
tionary effect daily life.
In bingham, ardent handicraftsmen not long
ago discovered old colonial loom lurking in the
recesses of a garnet. 1t dragged forth and
restrung, and it is back at work again.
Here too, Swedish linen weaving is done, for
at bingham the industrial arts flourish. Linens
for dresses toweng, sheeting and table covers
are woven on the Swedish loom.
The process of preparation requires almost as
much time and skill as the weaving itself. To
warp the skeins of linen is the first step. This
is done by arranging all the threads in even
lengths on device somewhat like a turnstile
which spins around carrying them from top to
bottom and back again. Thus the threads are
measured off accurately, while by means of pegs
they are twisted into figure eight shape. With
this device as many threads as 1000 to a yard
wide material may be kept from tangling A
frame with teeth in it, like big wooden comb

The colonial atmosphere which permeates the
town of Deerfeld fosters the zeal OF the laoolerS
who devote themselves to the simple industries VI
earlier days. From Deerfed come speclaiy AZ
tractive bIue and white woven rugs and exquisite
needle work. Here also, they dye their own ma

to turn the drug store into a fitting
room, she hustled away and presently
she returned with the new skirt and
paper of pins. She slipped that skirt
over the one she wore, as cool as any

that mirror, turning up the hem. felt

INV SShSSS ohN Sk0hS
This Iowa state college of agricul-
ture is reaching out for the boys and
girls of the state and is getting them.
The college has formed a close al.
lance with the State fair and the two
are working together for the up
building of Iowa agriculture and in
dustry. With the construction of the
new administration building on the
State Fair grounds this year, the
state college people spoke at once for
use of the old building used for some
years as the central offices of the
fair. This fine cottage has been Civ
en- over to Ames people and they will
make for the college an especially
fine exhibit at the Fair. In faS it is
the intention to closely connect the
Fair and the college so that every
year there will be held meetings Of
the college graduates and the young
men and women eligible for the col
lege work, and thus there will be
benefit to all. The college scholar
ship contests formed the beginning Of
this alliance, and it is extending.
This year these contests of the
boys and girls for college scholarships
will be held commencing on Satur-
day of the Fair week, this year on
August %. The fair opens on the
goth. The boys will compete in stock
| judging and in sampling seed corn and
| the girls will display their ability to
make biscuits and serve choice
