PLANNING FOR RURAL
ORGANIZATION SERVICE
Department Of Agriculture officials
to Make Surveys Of Various
Communities.

Plans are being formed very slowly
for the work of the new rural organiza-
ton service in the Department of Agri-
culture. Little information Is given by
the officials connected with this branch,
but it is known that they intend to con-
duct surveys Of various communities.
SO as to see in what line they most need
help. Several of the states have insti-
tuted surveys of this sort, notably
Maryland. where the governor appointed
a country life commission that made a
very detailed social and economic survey
of Montgomery county.
The first two surveys that are being
conducted by the rural organization serV-
Ice are in Minnesota, where they were
started under federal auspices last year
before the organization service was
projected.
Other States to Be Taken In.
Plans also are being laid for a simila,
survey in the Shenandoah valley. and
other states will be taken in as the work
progresses Some Of the surveys are t.
be made by townships. and some by vii
lagos and their tributary territory. but
it is not yet expected that any OF them
will cover an entire county.
One of the objects of the service will be
to study the conditions Of the reInotei
roads, which act as feeders to the mar
highways. These roads, as rule, are
neglected, and are in very poor condition
and part of the work will be educational
showing the local farmers the need OF
better interior roads. and aiding them II

! ing and maintenance.

Staple Food Product.

The officials Of the department say It
Is hard to realize how staple an article of
food these persimmons are in China. The
total crop there last year was valued at
seven million yen. They are dried, and
are then strung in lengths of from a
foot and a half to two feet, and are dis
played in markets. piled up like cord
wood. They are really fruit, but take
almost the place Of a vegetable.
One curious thing about the culture of
the jujubes that have been sent Is that
the Chinese force the tree to bear more
fruit by practically girdling it. Pictures
of the orchards show the trees to be
ringed from the ground to the lower
branches with punctures through the
bark to the sapwood. The explanation of
this practice is that the sap is forced to
travel through the sapwood. and less of
1t being able to return to the ground, 1t
is absorbed In the fruit crop. resulting in
a much heavier yield than would other
wise be the case.

Eleanor was a bright girl clerk in
the biggest store in CaryVille. She
was pretty and she was very much
alive, and she knew her business.
The owner of the Caryville store
crowded four dollars week on her
for her services.
There came travelling man who
represented the wholesale depart
ment of big city firm. While he
was waiting to talk to the manager
of the store where Eleanor worked
he entered affably into conversation
with Eleanor, who was not very busy.
He discovered in her young woman
who understood her work thorough
ly. When he heard the amount of
Eleanor's pay check he snorted.
-Four bucks peri" exclaimed the
travelling man, why that's a joke.
The city is simply hoIlering for girls
who know as much about the dry
goods business as you do, and you're
wasting your talents in this hole of
a town." 81.

nocent little country maid, but l
don't exactly see the whysomeness of
all this. What's your game?"4
The travelling man grinned.
SISTER, he said, eff you don't OBJ

ton, I'm married and have five chill
dren. The oldest will be your age
before long. I'll let you look me up
in all the moral-improvement socie-
ties you please, and you can write to
the firm and learn all about me. The
fact is that you're live person with
head on your shoulders, and I'm al
ways picking up that kind of people
for the house when l can. I'll write
you about the job if land it for you"

True, Eleanor was not. exactly in
the dark as to the dangers of a great
city. She had read all about them in
the magazines, and the local minister,
who had once been in Chicago before
the fire, gave her plenty of warning.
She was fully prepared to snub any
man on the train who might wish to
be nice to her, and she had her hat
pin ready if she were mobbed by abb
ductors and kidnapers at the city ter
minal.
Having been warned not to take a
cab, Eleanor abode by the warning,
but she noticed casually that all the
cabs drawn up in the station bore

she had cried over at home.
A policeman told her which car to
take, and she boarded it. Here also,
there were plenty of young men, but
they apparently did not know she was
on the car, for the seats were full and
they buried themselves in their
papers that they might not notice
her.

Cents IN DRESS

When II is said that people are
known by the clothes they wear as
well as the company they keep, the
subject Of dress economics is an I'M
portant one. Many people plan their
education, household affairs and yaca-
lions, but to plan out the wardrobe
is another question. Too many choose
clothes hastily; they see this or that
in the shops which they admire, and
when they come to combine the diff
ferent purchases the effect Is not sat;
isfactory.
For women who have 70 consider
the question of dollars and cents, and
there seem to be few who do not, II
is we'll to decide first how much may
be spent on the wardrobe and divide
the amount between the different
lines, such as costumes, millinery,
shoes and furnishings, and In this
way one line will not be complete and
another seriously lacking and inappro-
pirate to go with it.
Clothes are not only the outward
establishment. but we derive unco1-
gciously feeling of self-respect from
being well dressed, and the clothes
we wear reflect ourselves to great
extent. When We look at this ac-
auaintance or that we knowt that the
one who is CARRIED in the extreme Of
of style wants to secure attention.
The woman of refinement affects a
costume which is less startling but
is strictly genuine in quality.
The purchasing of good materials Is
advisable. The expenditure may be
larger at the time of the purchase, but
it is economy in the end, for the ma
teriaI will not only wear longer but
1t will admit of remodeling, and will
always look better than inferior quail
ties. A few frocks of good material
will give a woman far greater feel
ing of being well dressed than any
number of SNOWY clothes which are
not genuine.
The purchasing of materials has
come to be one of the fine arts, for
such improvements have been made
