Weather Crop Bulletin.
Des Moines, Iowa. For til

Des Molnes, Iowa. For the
week ending Sep. 25, 1910.
The first three days of the
week were clear and very warm
but the last four days were
cloudy and cool with generally
heavy rain on the 22d and 23d.
Corn made rapid progress to-
ward maturity during the early
part of the week and about IS
to 80 per cent of the crop is
now safe from an ordinary
frost. Much of the remainder
will require ten days to two
weeks to be safe from damage
from heavy frost and would be
seriously injured by freezing
temperature within that tire.
Rapid progress was made DUR
ing the early part of the week
in cutting corn and filling silos.
the late rains have put the
ground in fine condition for
fall blowing and that work, to-
gether with seeding fall grain,
is progressing rapidly, with
a large increase in the acreage
of wheat. The early sown win
ter wheat is up and is growing
nicely. Considerable hay is
put up, especially on the Misso-
uri River bottoms. Late pota-
toes continue to improve where
the vines were not killed by the
drouth, but the crop will be
light. Pastures are in excel
lent condition for fall and win
ter feed. George M. Chapel,
Section Director.

Fashionable Life.

absurd length fashion will Car.
ry people in this country. Il
mas caused the unhappiness of
many, the boycott andneg,ect OF
others, and the laughter and in
difference of the sensible part
the community. AS the old
woman said: Better be out Of
the world than out of the fash
ion." 1t has given US the ladies
wonderful head gear, the hoop
skirt, the big, and tight sleeves,
and now, to cap the climax, the
hobble skirt has made its ao-
pearence, but none of these, OF
all combined, is half as absurd
as the table etiquette adopted by
the people of the twentieth CEN
fury, among which we note the
foolish idea that you must not,
under pain of being thought a
savage, use your knife at the
table. One of the most serious
charges against Grover Cleve-
land, President of the United
States, was that he used tho
knife at the table in his meals!
The historian tells us that up
to the year 1863, people ate
with their fingers, then such a
thing as a table knife was un-
known. Forks did not come in
to use until about 1911, coming
from Italy. AS late as 1880,
knives, forks and spoons were
so scarce that in the farmer
class each guest was expected
to bring his own with him. At
that early date crockery ard
glass ware were unknown. The
meals were served from a pew
ter or wooden bowl, and all par
taking from the same dish, but
now, after the lapse of years,
and the aid of science that has
given Us the knife, fork and
spoon, fashion, or a foolish fad
has made it very Objectionable
or even vulgar to use the knife,
only as an ornament, at the ia
BILE, especially in fashionable
society. The time is soon COM
ing when we will be expected
to eat our soup with a fork, and
our desert with a pair of tweez-
ers. 1t is nice to be fashiona-
BILE, but there is danger of be-
coming entirely too fashionable
for real comfort. We have al
ready passed the days of the use
| of the finger as a means of con-
|veying food from the plate to
the mouth and now fashion has
decreed that the knife is not to
be used, so there you are-take
the knife or byw tn fashion.

Silence is commonly the slow poison

It. No shock Is given. Hope is not

ton. Love dies like natural decay. 1t

Revised Football Rules.

Il
The football rules have been
revised radically in the attempt
to provide a more open and
spectacular game, and to lessen
the danger of injury to the
players. The flying tackle is
prohibited; no pushing or pull
ing of the man with
the ball is allowed: there must
be several offensive players on
the line Of scrimmage; there is
greater protection for the re-
ceiver of the forward pass or
on-side kick; there are two adj
ditional rest periods; the quart
er-back is now virtually a half
back, and may run anywhere
with the ball; and a player who
retires from the game may
later return.

Crippen, charged with the murder of
his actress wife, Belle Elmore, in Lon
don, and captured after a sensational
chase across the Atlantic, announced
in the provincial court he would not
resist his return to England.
The authorities are confident that
Ethel Leneve, his stenographer,
charged with being an accomplice in
the murder, will give no more trouble
than Crippen promises to and that as
soon as the fifteen days of grace pro-
yided by the extradition laws of Can
ada have expired both prisoners can
be returned to London without any
hitch.
Miss LeneVe has been, transferred
from the provincial Jail to a hospital.
The girl scarcely has been able to
stand since her collapse when she was
taken into custody.
The jail keepers suggested to the
court that she be sent to a hospital,
where she could receive medical at
tention, of which she is plainly in
need.
The court granted the request and
went farther in making known it's in
tention to send an official to the hos
pital to take her answers to the same
formal questions that were asked of
Crippen in open court.
