HOBBIES WRECK
NERVES, SAYS
DR.. NJ RAE
Noted Atlanta Physician Calls
Tight Skirts an AbOmination.
'Insanitary and Immodest.'

Women who wear the extremely
tight skirt decreed by modern fash
ion are treading the road that leads
to nervous prostration. according to
DR.. Floyd McRae, one of Atlantas
most noted physicians In this opin-
ion DR.. McRae takes direct issue with
prominent members of the Chicago
Medical Society. who recently de-
clared the tight skirt hygienic. artis-
tic and comfortable
Women who wear the tight skirt
that is, one so tight it does not al
low perfect freedom Of the lower
limbs" said DR.. McRae Tuesday
morning, are constantly under a
strain which eventually will bring
about nervous prostration. This con-
dltion is due to the fact that the mus
Giles are cramped and DO not get that
perfect freedom which is necessary in
walking. Some muscles are override
veloped and others are not devel-
oped sufficiently to do their share of
the work of walking.
The tight skirt has not been in
vogue long enough for the effects of
this to show in the women as
whole, but If 1t is not abandoned the
time undoubtedly will come when
women virtually will be nervous
wrecks.
Hobbies an Abomination.
THE tight skirt is an abomination,
and one of the worst things women
have taken to in years. Ii is i'm
source Of continual danger to the
wearer. With their freedom Of move
ment restricted, they face danger
every time they appear on the streets
in a tight skirt
"A woman wearing a tight skirt is
in danger of spraining her ankle
every time she sets on a street car
or in an automobile, and many Of
the minor accidents sustained by
women nowadays are due to the tight
skirt and the restricted, hobbling
walk which it necessitates."
DR.. McRae declared the old style Of
wide, flowing skirt which touched
the ground was as bad as the modern
skirt
Old Styles as Bad.
THE kind of skirt that every wom-
an should wear" he said, should be
wide enough to permit of perfect
freedom in walking, and it should not
touch the ground at any point. The
old style skirts, plated and flowing,
picked up enormous quantities of
germs in the streets and carried them
into the home, which the sensible
skirt would not do"
The opinion that the tight skirt is
hygienic and the right thing for wom-
en- was expressed by rs doctors in
Chicago, among them Drs. Maurice
3. Wolff, Norman Curry and Arthur
B. Reynolds. They declared the tight
skirt is a splendid thing, and that,
among other things. II corrects the
tendency of the American woman to
turn her toes out when walking.

NEED. OF COOPERATION.

In addition to the administration of
it's waste lands for forest purposes,
the individual state should play a part
IN cooperating with private cumberland
owners, commensurate with the inter
est which the state has in maintaining
its timber supply, says the committee
on state forestry of the national con-
servation congress at Washington.
The committee further recommends as
general principles for the practice of
state forestry everywhere that the gov
erning board should be removed from
partisan political control, and that the
state forester should be fitted for his
work by professional training and ex-
perience.
Civil service should govern in tho
selection Of all forest officers, and all
industries directly dependent on the
forests should be represented on the
state forestry board. Further, the
committee says, the forest officers
should have ample discretionary pow
er, and should be delegated enough
authority to settle controversies as
they arise.
After an organization is formed it
should be provided with machinery
which will make it's work effective.
such az ample funds, sufficient force,
prompt and effective measures against
forest vandalism, and strong police
power. Without including all these
things, the committee says, state legis-
lation will fail of it's purpose and
largely be a dead letter. ~

to have names given them, and these
roads should all be marked and there
should be dire punishment for the fool
behind gun who uses these signs for
target.
The auto routes are being marked
and there will soon be two or more
routes on the same road, and yet while
the road may be known as a way"
and as a Trail and perhaps also as
a Route" yet it's own name will be
essential and of as much value to
travellers as the fanciful markings of
the various trails.
These trails are great thing for
the man who wants to fit across the
state in an auto. But if you are look
ing for man in the next township, 1t
would be quite help to you If you
knew on what road he lived and about
how far from a certain point, which
would presumably be the next town of
consequence.
Naming and marking the roads with
signs is not going to be a very ex-
pensive proposition, and it will be
worth all that it may cost.-Burling-
ton Hawkeye.

BUYING ABROAD.

It developed this week that the navy
department has been making a number
of purchases abroad recently.
The first purchase, and the only one
SO far to attract much publicity, was
that of eight drum turbines, which
were secured from foreign manufac-
turers for just about one-third the
price asked by American makers.
1t was after the awarding OF this
contract to the foreigners that Secre-
tary Daniels came out so strongly in
favor Of a government armor plate fac
tory.
It appears that under the new tariff
law, all materials used in the construc-
ton of ships may be brought into this
country free of duty. The materials
are brought in in bond and then re-
leased on proof that they have gone
into ships.
Foreign ship building concerns, to
prevent the American ship builders
from getting a better start. are said
to be turning this provision against
the Americans by selling their supplies
at a loss. In other words, they have

FARM LAND $500 AN AcRE-WHY?

FARM LAND $500 AN AcRE-WHY?
Time and again It has been proven
that legume crops would wonderfully
enrich any land in which they had
been sown, but until William Galloway
of Waterloo, Iowa, purchased worn
out farm near that city and carefully
and properly prepared his seed beds in
which he, sowed legume crops with
practically all his grain-vetch be-
tween the rows of corn as the corn was
LAID by-cow peas and soy beans W tn
oats, and alfalfa in carefully prepared
seed beds no farm land in the state
of Iowa or the corn belt ever sold for
$500 per acre for farming purposes.
Mr.. Galloway has been at the head
Of the legume planting movement in
the corn belt. No one has advocated
legume planting more forcibly than he,
and no farmer has more closely prac-
ticed what he preached than Mr.. Gallo
way.
After a few years of good clean
farming in which inoculated legume
crops, such as COW peas, soy beans.
vetch, clover and alfalfa, were used to
bring the soil up to a high state of
fertility, Mr.. Galloway disposed of his
farm and it was purchased by Eli
Messer of Dysart. Iowa, at $500 per
acre, the land being sold to the high
ext bidder at public auction on No
vember 5.
Since this sale has been made the
question that arises in the minds of
thousands of corn belt farmers is,
"What will the best farm land be
worth in another twenty-five or fifty
years?" It has already been proven
that corn belt farm land can produce
6 to 10 per cent profit on valuation
of $1,000 per acre. On the Gallo
way farm alfalfa yields a bona fide 8
per cent profit made from alfalfa alone,
the number of cuttings running from
three to five per year, and the hay be-
ing valued at $18 per ton.
