SUCCESS IN A DRY SECTION
Do Not Place Yourself In Position
Where You Have Not Sufficient
Capital to Work On.

have driven very widely over the
arid plains during the past year. My
early experience in new country
places me always in sympathy with
those who go into new lands with
the thought Of establishing home.
There are some things which must be
observed by those vino succeed In
what is called the dry sections, writes
o. c. Gregg In the >Deseret Farmer.
First, do not invest all OF your cap
ital In land and then incur debt for
adjoining lands and 80 leave yourself
without sufficient amount OF ready
money to aid In doing the things which
must be done In order to make that
land sustain expenses and family liv-'
Ing. Second. do not delay to open up
a reasonable amount OF this land
which you have acquired so as to OBJ
tain from It as soon as possible a
measure OF crop that will help II It
does not fully sustain the expense OF
the family for the first year or so.
Third, one Of the greatest aids for
the sustaining Of the home will be
found In a reasonable amount OF
stock which should be obtained very
soon and so help pay the running ex-
penses. Let this stock comprise few
good cows. Do not forget the poultry
and add to these two classes OF stock
one or more good brood sows. Fourth.
without mourning too much expense
proper shelter can be made for this
stock. There will need to be a little
fencing. This is more readily obtain
ed today than in the early days be.
cause woven wire Is now comparative
ly easily obtalnable.
Fifth. make every effort that Is need
full to keep this stock we'll. The reve.
nue. from them will enable one to live
upon the land without incurring debts
which may seriously handicap further
efforts Sixth. use what implements
are necessary to do the work upon the
land which is open. Do not, however,
open more land than you can proper
ly cultivate. Seventh, let the increas.
ed acreage be made gradually. 1t Is
better to thoroughly cultivate small
number OF acres rather than to have
much land that can not be fully titled
and that will probably call upon the
settler to furnish expensive imple.
ments which will in turn make trou-
blesome debts. Eighth, begin quite
early TO plant about the buildings the
beginning Of shelter belts. The trees
should be so set as to aid the comfort
of the home and make one of the best
conditions for the continued effort
to make that new piece OF land to be
a home In every way.

Does beauty bring happiness?
One OF the most beautiful women In
the world thinks that by itself It can
not. but says that every woman has a
charm-for some man.
Every woman Is charming In some
way to somebody" she says.
Beauty OF itself cannot bring hap

woman who possesses It. One cannot
be beautiful forever. and love that
centers only round woman's beauty
turns to hate when she grows old
II have known ugly women who
charmed men by their grace OF man

kindliness OF heart. You may say that
is little consolation to the woman hun.
cry for beauty. but know how little

COMPARTMENTS IN THE BAG
One Of the Newest and Most Welcome
Of the Many Recent Fads
Of Fashion.

II you once have owned a fourfold
bag you will never again be without
one. Into the separate compartments
can go buttons, hooks and eyes. thread
and sewing utensils and small piece
OF work, and there Is no wild hunting
for the article needed as In a one
piece bag.
These bags may be made in any
size, but a convenient size Is made
from yard and three.quarters OF
five.inch flowered ribbon with colored
satin edges. Cut the ribbon into four
strips OF equal length. double each
strip and overcast the edges together
to form a small bag, Turn In the top
to the depth OF an inch for the head
Ing and run with double line of sew
Ing for casing.
Use two yards OF number one or
baby satin ribbon for drawstring
cutting in separate yard pieces. Rip
the stitches on the outside OF the
casing between the line OF sewing, and
run the drawstring through the out
side OF each OF the four bags, tying
the ends In n fluffy bow. Start the
other drawstrlngs at the opposite end
with two bags to each side and run
around the four, using the inner side
OF the casing. Tie ends In bow.
To keep the bags from sliding on
the drawstring, tack the two on each
side together. running stitch or
two in the frill just above the casing.
This makes them draw easily on one
string.
