Leather Money and Medals.

Leather Money and Medals.
On the authority of Seneca, curl
Gus account is given of period when
leather, appropriately stamped to
give it q certain legal character, was
the only current money. At com
paratively recent date in the annals
of Europe, Fredich the Second, who
died in 1850 at the siege OF Milan,
paid his troops with leather money,
Nearly the same circumstance oc
Cured in England during the great
wars of the barons. In the course
Of 1850 King John, for the ransom of
his royal person, promised to pay to
Edward the Third of England three
millions of gold crowns. In order to
fill his obligation John was reduced
to the notifying necessity of paying
the expenses of the palace in leather
money, in the center of each piece
there being little bright point Of
silver.
In that reign IL found the origin Of
the burlesque honor Of comforting "a
leather medal" King John having
used them when he wished to confer
honor upon some nobleman.-Har-

Just Now They Are Most Popular in
Embroidery or Lace-stralaht
Belt Is Not Becoming
at All. .zs

The belt plays an all-important part
on lingerie gowns.
It is made of embroidery or lace.
and is most carefully shaped to the
waist. Then the skirt is joined to 1t
by the finest Of stitches. and where
there can be cores and seams they are
put In. but are hidden under the tucks
or gathers in marvelously clever
manner
A straight all-around belt Is a dan
gerously; trying experiment for the
average woman to attempt. for II her
waist be more than tiny her figure
runs the chance Of looking square
and thick.
Slipping the belt through bars Of
lace or embroidery breaks the line, or
having the belt put on 80 that It
shows only at the back or front is an.
other device that Is popular and tends
to make the waist small. Never was
there time when 80 much attention
was paid to having the small waist;
In theory the large waist is the most
admired. but the woman who without
lactng in such manner as to draw in
the waist so tight that hips and bust
are thrown out can look as though her
waist measures but span is always
complimented upon her fine figure.
2 1t Is one Of the mysteries of the
science OF dress this giving the effect
OF small waist when the tape meas
ure reads more than normal number
OF inches, but it is mystery that
IN these days is solved by the clever
dressmaker and which can be and Is
copied by the woman who is clever
about clothes and who has learned
that attention to details helps beyond
anything In being gowned after the
very latest edicts of fashion.

AN IMPROVED VARIETY OF RYE.

q
A new variety of rye is being dis
trlbuted by the Minnesota Experiment
Station that promises to give new i'm
petus to the rye growing industry of
the State. This variety, known as
Minnesota No. 2, was developed by
careful nursery selection of individual,
plants from stock of Swedish rye
obtained from Mr. John Borgan of
Henning, Mimi, in 1896.
After several selections were made.
this variety was increased and tested
at University Farm during the years
of 1900 to 1908. The average yield
for that time was 40.4 bushels pc,
acre while the varieties commonly
grown in the State averaged for the
same years 1913 bushels. This va
sriety when well grown has large ker-
nels that are quite uniformly light
colored, though some dark kernels
may be found. The plants stool lux
uriantly and the straw stands up well
allowing the grain to ripen evenly and
in good season, usually about July 10th
to goth. The plants grow four to four
and a half feet high with heads 311z to
4 inches long. No. 2 rye was grown
by few farmers in various parts of
the State in 19O7-19Os, and was con-
sidered an improvement wherever
grown. From these comparative
yields it is calculated that the No. 2
rye will yield 9.5 bu. per acre more
than the common varieties It was
quite widely distributed In 1908 and
reports 50 far received indicate that
It is doing well this year.
The Experiment Station has only a
small stock OF the seed for sale at
$1.25 per bushel. but can furnish the
addresses Of seed growers IN many
localities who purchased seed from
| the Experiment Station last fan and
from whom It can be purchased d..
rect. These addresses may be OBJ
tanned BY writing the Agriculturist OF
the Minnesota Experiment Station. ST.

Tuck Aetn,

When basting garment where deep
tucks are needed, good way to keep
the tucks even when the marks are
far apart Is TO stretch the basting from
one mark 10 the next, taking the
stitches in line with the thread so
stretched. When finished, the work
presents an even appearance and may
be stitched exactly as basted.
