Hints for Summer Meals

During the hot weather food spoils
so quickly that ii is wise to pur
chase Just enough to last over the
twentyfour hours. Fruits of all
kinds. green vegetables and little
meat should constitute the bulk of
ones diet.
Fruits needs mastication. even the
very ripe and tender verieties. Those
who are distressed after eating fruit
are usually those who are careless
about masticating It,
Summer breakfasts are usually a
problem to the householder. especi-
ally If her family has a diversity of
tastes. There is nothing more re-.
freshing and satisfying than fresh
fruit in its season, and nature has
supplied us SO abundantly that even
the fussy person may have the kind
he likes.

NEW RUSSIAN BLoUsEs

The Russian blouse is less extreme
than the low-waistline jackets, and
1t is excellent style. All the French
houses are making it, and it is prov
ing popular in this country. The true
Russian blouse has a rather full pep
lum and the upper part blouses over
a regulation or slightly raised waist
line in front as well as In back.
If you do not care for either the
Russian or Balkan blouse you can
use a eutaway coat with the fronts
cut very much away and running into
a narrow cutaway back. or a jacket
with some suggestion of the raised
waistline either at the front or back
or both.

lightly with mayonnaise or French
dressing The slice of meat should
be placed on one piece of lettuce, the
other lettuee-cover piece of bread
should be put on top and the whole
pressed firmly together before trim
ming and cutting.

Covering the Glass Door

Possibly you have tired of the
white curtain at the front door. If
so. then by all means cover the glass
with one of the paper coverings that
can be pasted to the glass, and
which reflects the same light as a
genuine glass door The paper is
more fashionable than curtains The
deep ruby green and yellow papers
are best for the purpose. This paper
may be also used to cover stairway
and hall windows.

BIG Demand for the Weekly

Department Of Agriculture Embsrrsss'
ed by Growth In PopulsrIty--Look-
Ing FOR Some Way to "side
step" Without Hurting Any
Ones Feelings.

washington.--Aga the department
I agriculture is suffering from an ex
cess Of popularity. The last time II
ran into an embarrassment Of this
sort was when the past spring II Is.
ued it's now famous bird book,
which was a manual Of the common
farm and orchard birds of interest to
farmers. There was such shoal OF
requests for copies that the depart
ment has never been able to catch up
with the requests.
This time II is In connection with
the weekly news letter" that Secre-
tary Houston undertook to get out as
sort OF compensation to the $4,000
crop correspondents who get no other
reward for their services. The first
issue of this letter has just been put
out. II consists of about 1880 words
Of typewriting, giving in popular Ian
guage and paragraph form summaries
OF bulletins and other things of Inn
mediate interest to agriculturists.
The intention was to get out an edi-
ton just large enough to supply the
correspondents. The first number con-
tanned paragraphs about investiga-
lions into seed adulteration, damage
to the market value OF hides by the
cattle tick, action against misbranded
insecticides, etc., of direct interest to
farmers. There was an immediate
food of applications for the letter
from country papers and besides other
things a request that copy be sent
to each of the $4,000 postoffices for
posting for the benefit of visitors.
All this was quite complimentary.
but the appropriation for white paper
alone to meet such demand was too
much of drain, and the mechanical
facilities for printing and mailing all
the copies were entirely inadequate.
So the department is now looking
around for some way to sidestep grace
fully without hurting any ones feel
ings.
