NEW BELTS MADE TO FIT.
Dress Accessory Which May Be Re.
lied Upon to "stay Put"

II the heavily-embroidered linen
belts. or wellcanvassed cloth ones
persist in slipping up to disclose the
waist and skirt attachments, there is
a way out-and it's all in the shape.
Was there ever a problem In the
realm Of fashion that could not be
solved by some woman's genius?
There are women who have Just ex-
actly the correct contour to be per-
fectly fitted about the waist line by a
straight band of material, which
stays put but is that a reason to
suppose that every belt must needs
oe straight? It is quite enough of a
tax on the general amiability to ac-
eept the lace stock made in one size
only for every neck (the saints be
praised for collars in quarter sizesl)
but, while the ready-to-wear beltings
in embroidered galloons and the like
are necessarily straight, all belts
turned out by tailors and at home
need not conform to a pattern fitting
half the public.
A very simple solution is the belt
looking like every other belt when
round the waist, but cut two inches
and half wide in the center back
and sloped gradually to a width Of
an inch and quarter at each side OF
the front. The extra width in the
back lies over the hooks on the skirt
band, and the usual narrowness in
the front slips more readily into most
belt buckles.

The Time to Plant.
So little has been done In this mat
ter OF growing winter cover crops be-
tween the rows OF cotton that we are
not entirely sure when is the best
time 70 plant each OF the various
crops that may be used. There is a
mechanical dificulty too, in many
cotton fields by reason OF the fact
that many Of the branches OF the cot.

intermihgle so that It seems QUITE
impossible to drive a horse through
the row to cover seed that may be
sowed in the fall months. On poor
upland soil where the growth OF the
cotton stalk is very small II is quite
easy TO do this and II is really these
soils that need winter legumes. To

at that time the only other desirable
time seems to be Immediately after

a one-horse cultlvator without knock

vantage Of the bur clover IN the mat

be sowed when the cotton is laid by

too large during the fall, The seeds

Winter Cover Crops and all Plowina.
There has been much said about
the advantage Of plowing the land in
the fall in preparing for cotton and
corn the following year. The writer
is a believer in the advantage of fall
plowing and he is also a believer in
the advantage OF winter cover crops
In the fall. and these ideas, in a meas
ure, conflict. For instance. II the
land is plowed In the fall II is nearly
impossible to have a legume for q

TO use winter grains for that purpose.
Oats, barley, wheat. or rye can be
sowed after the fall pIowing is done
and these will prevent the washing

Standard Oh Back Of Democratic Ireachery
Fitzgerald and His Band Now Wear the Rockefeller Tag

United States Senator Bailey OF
Texas has taken up the task of having
the democrats, who deserted to Can
non in the fight over the house rules,

Mr.. Bailey is one Of the senators
whose connection with the Standard
Oil trust was exposed by William Ran
dolph Hearst. Inasmuch as it is COM
mon gossip at both ends of the capt.
toll that Standard Oil was the influ-
ence that prompted the Democratic
treachery, and that the price of this
treachery was the exemption of Stand
ard Oil from any interference in the
schedules of the new tariff bill, the as
sumption by Mr.. Bailey of the role Of
peacemaker is regarded in Washing
ton as clinching proof Of the rumors
that are flying about.
Bailey has been to see Champ Clark,
the Democratic leader in the House.
He wants the Democratic boilers for

of Standard Oil.
They will be lucky if they escape
with only that. Where rumor is so
rife, it will be strange if an investiga-
ton is not ordered that will uncover
the truth of the midnight changes in
the oil schedule.
A quiet investigation is being made
by the old-time Democrats, and if any
opening wedge is driven, their purpose
is to break wide open the whole affair
and show to the country the real con
nection between Standard Oil and the
upholding of Cannon's rules through
Democratic aid.

revolt, is the representative for Boss

Facts About the New Tariff Bill
Its Main Provisions Briefly Told.

The Payne tariff bill is described by
Senator Clapp, a republican, as a
monstroslty.
It provides for an inheritance tax,
at the personal request, it is claimed,
of President Taft.
It preserves the features Of the ola
law providing for reciprocity with
Cuba
The revenues to be derived from the
bill, it is estimated, will reach $780,
600, 600.
The maximum rates are not to be
pat into effect until sixty days after
the bill is enacted.
Where articles have been trans
ferred from the free list to the dutiable
list, they are in most cases luxuries.
Where duties have been raised it
has been with the object of increasing
the revenues.
The inheritance tax is expected to
yield $4,000, 900 per annum.
zF5 AL 1Ot GiS u VI aoC s1S OOIiOaeS oA = ~
be annulled and the maximum and
minimum system will take their place.
Substantial red uctions are made on
steel and iron ores.
Reductions are made on lumber but
they are reductions that will be OF no
benefit to the consumer.
Wood pulp is put on the free list
from countries that impose no import
tax. The tariff on print paper is re-.
duced.
Hides are placed on the free list and
there is a slight lowering OF the tariff
on shoes.
Tea is taxed eight cents a pound,
but coffee is left to come in free.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1909-03-24

Works Of art, more than {twenty
years old, are also admitted free.
No extra tax is placed on beer, that
commodity already being burdened
with about all it can stapd.
The protection accorded the Stand
ard Oil company is, Of course. left
undisturbed.
Countries admitting our agriculture
al implements free get the benefit OF
free trade in these articles with the
United States.
To meet deficiency conditions in the
treasury while the bill is getting into
full working order, provision is made
for the issuance of $40, 900, 900 Pana ANA
bonds, and treasury certificates to the
value of $3.50, Do0,o 900 are authorized.
Reciprocal free trade with the Phil
ippines is provided, except as to
sugar. tobacco and cigars. A limited
amount of these Philippine products
are permitted to enter free, but above
the limit set full duties must be paid.
Foreigners acquiring patents in this
country are required to comply with
all conditions in this country which
are exacted of people of this country
who acquire patents in their countries.
This is aimed at the foreign require
ments that articles protected by for
eign patents must be manufactured in
those countries. It is expected to
cause foreigners to build large manu-
factories here.
The bill proposes the establishment
OF the maximum and minimum tariff
system adopted by Germany, France
and other foreign countries.

A Lecture on Genuine Generosity
From the Chicago Examiner.

Mr.. Rockefeller, having more
money than he could spend on him
self if his life were to be prolonged
through centuries, endows college
in Chicago, and, better still, estab-
fishes a great institution in New York
for the purpose Of finding the causes
of the dreadful diseases that lay waste
the population of whole tenement dis
tricts at time. His liberality is need
full. There should be no question OF
accepting his money or asking where
he got it. Such part of it as he has
given away is doing a good work.
Mr.. Carnegie, having amassed some
hundreds Of millions, chooses to spend
it on libraries, and books to fill them,
providing, thriftily, as he thinks, that
the benefciaries of his liberality
shall be liberal, too.
The libraries are useful-the books
ought to be read. There is no reason
why any community should refuse a
Carnegie library if it can afford to
keep it up.
But the liberality of Mr.. Carnegie,
like the liberality Of Mr.. Rockefeller,
costs the giver nothing.
Endowing university does not
mean that there will be less meat on
the Rockefeller table, fewer automo.

Teller family to and from work, a
scarcity of greensward on the Rookie.

campaign fund at Mr.. Archbold's dis.
posal in the Standard Oil treasury.
And all the libraries that Mr.. Car.
negie has given away have not i'm.
posed upon him any self-denial and
self-denial is what counts after all.
Gong down into ones pocket as a
response to a call for charity is one
thing. Finding for ones self pub
lie duty that needs doing, and intel.
ligently considering the best way tc
do it, is quite another.
The first is liberality. The second
is generosity.

The man about town, coming home

on the street corner, and losses a dol
lar bill to her. He feels a generous
thrill as be does this worthy thing
his chest expands, and he says to him
self: Really, am q pretty good fell
low, after all. No appeal from the
suffering is made to me in vain
Next morning he is informed that
his brother is ill-dying, perhaps in
PARKWAY town. To send money is
easy. He writes his check for cou-
pie of hundred dollars and drops it
into a mail box with another glow Of
self:satisfied pride. "It does beat the
world,' be murmurs to himself, "what
a generous chap I am. How many
brothers would be so willing to dig
up-instantly, too-and without a
thought about the money?''
But strange news comes back over
the telegraph wire. His brother doesn It
need money; he has enough to pay for
his doctor and his hospital bills. He
is all alone, without friends. What
he wants is, to see his brother-to have
some relative by him in his last illness.
All! This is different matter. To
go to the sick brothers. bedside would
mean sacrifice sacrifice of pleasure,
of business interests, of comfort. The
brother thinks it over and grows un-
comfortable. Then he says to himself:
TT is all foolishness-his wanting
me. He has money, he has good doc
tors, a good nurse, everything that
can be done for him is being done. It
is outrageous that he should ask me
to leave my friends and my home and
my business and go to him. I'll send
him all the money he wants, but as for
going-no, it can't be done!'
And so our pattern of generosity,
who blithely losses dollar bill to a
beggar woman, isn't generous after
all; only selfish, sordid, everyday
man, who will give freely and continu-
ously-as long as it doesn't cost him
anything.
