The only products OF any impor-
lance which did not show an Increase
IN value In 1913 over 1912 were gyp-

an increase In the quantity of the
crude material mined. from i60.sGS
short tons in 1919 to lei $50 tons In
1918: but the value Of the output. most
of which was sold as caicined plaster,
decreased from s356,57s to S34h.74s.
The principal gypsum operations are
al Acme. In llardeman county. and AT
Hamlin. In Fisher county. The pro-
duction OF salt decreased from a73.-
o64 barrels, valued at s2sO.a2S to
s55.b2s barrels valued at s27s,0sS.
The decrease in the salt production
was due to the destruction BY fire Of

this method is not altogether satisfac-

closing adjusted and the hem turned. To
do this II Is put on Eand pinned together
the full length of the front and basting
thread run along the line of the closing.
This IL used later on as q guide by which
to baste the two fronts together for
stitching. While the skirt is on the hem
Is turned, and to do this in the most sat
isfactory way the material is TUNED up
on the right side, so that the skirt is
even all around. and pinned in this posi-
ton. For an outing skirt the lower edge
should clear the ground by at least three
inches.
The skirt is then taken on and a bast-
ing thread run around the material exact
ly where the turn for the hem is made
The width of the hem should be about
three inches. and to get II even take a
piece OF cardboard three inches wide and
mark on the turned edge this distance
from the bottom. The marking may be
made either with pins or with a lead PEN
ell. and the material above this marking
is cut away. The, edge just cut Is then
turned down on the wrong side one
quarter OF an inch and basted. The skirt
lis then ready to have the hem turned
along the line Of basting that marks the
lower edge when finished. After 1t is
turned it is basted close to the edge and
another basting thread run along the
top of the hem to hold II in place for the
final stitching.
These general directions hold good for
any skirt. and even for the double skirts,
such as shown in model No. 3, the mode
of proceeding with making, and the fin-
ishing, is about the same.
The upper skirt can be cut from the
pattern used for the under skirt by al
lowing material on either side at the
hips, to give it width, and cutting the
length at the point desired.

carefully handled the material will not
require ironing before it is cut out and
all that will be necessary is to give the
garment a thorough pressing when I'm

Directions for Cutting.
Three smart new skirt models. varied
in design. are given on this page. Any
woman may copy them and be assured
that they will prove becoming. To de-
velop them any ordinary two or three
piece skirt pattern may be employed II
a two-piece pattern is used, seam will
come in the center back, and II a three
piece pattern Is used the seams will come
on either hip The correct hang Of a
skirt depends entirely upon whether 1t is
cut, basted and stitched properly. II. In
other words, the skirt is properly made
il will hold its shape even after being
laundered.
In the first place to get the required
results the pattern must be placed on
the goods as indicated by the pattern
label. As much as possible a straight
line is kept fro-r the waist to the hem
Of the garment, and whenever the shap-
sary they must be taped so that they
will hold and not sag or pull. Cotton
tape is better than linen for the purpose
and a narrow width should be used. 1t is
basted in with the seams. so that the In
side edge OF the tape will be caught by
the stitching of the seam. Care must be
taken when basting this tape to see that
1t lies perfectly flat, and that 1t neither

There are so many uses to which such
clothes can be put that when planning
the wardrobe a sufficient quantity should
be arranged, In order to give a COM
Portable change and allow for launder-
ing when necessary.
Three tub skirts, with half a dozen
wash waists and a rough wooden coat
will be sufficient to see the average
woman through the next few months.
In these sport clothes color plays an
important part, and IL well chosen they
are very picturesque. For the main part
Of the garment a plain serviceable color
is generally selected. and the striking
color note is introduced by way of pip
ings, facings, and girdle.
Durable Materials Are Recom-
mended.
careful seiection of materials for
these sport clothes will save the wearer
much annoyance later. To get the best
results, the fact that these garments are
intended for utility purposes and that
they will get good hard wear must not
be lost sight of. The goods, thereGore.
must be chosen for its durability in
both color and weave. Dark brown,
blue. green, and tan will give salts
faction, and in these colors there is a
great variety of shades, so that there
is no danger Of finding a monotony in
tone.
For skirts to be worn at this season Of
of year there is nothing that will give
more satisfaction than the coarse crash
weaves Of linen or a wide vale wash
corduroy. The fine French weaves of
linen are at present considered very
smart, but they are not practical for this
kind Of dress. as they crush easily and
look badly unless pressed every time
they are worn. The crash weaves will
stand any amount of packing and rough
usage without showing il. Wash cordu-
roy will also stand any amount Of rough
usage and with a good shaking out will
look equal to new.
Shrinking Necessary.
All wash materials should be shrunk
before they are cut out, and II one
Knows how to go about this in the right
way 1t will give very little ezra work.
The goods should be left in the original
creases, placed in the bottom of a tub
and covered with lukewarm water, II a
few tablespoonfuls of turpentine are
added 1t will do much to preserve the
color until the goods is entirely worn
out. After an hour and a half to two
hours soaking the goods should be re-
moved from the water, without wringing,
and hung on the line to dry, keeping the
original creases as much as possible. II

Some one has said by way OF pointing
out the value Of schooling that q cauli-
flower was simply an educated cabbage.

weight few years ago, for then cabbage
was one Of the vegetables that went beg

IN now knowing how
The first thing about cooking cauli-
flower TO remember is that it should be
cooked lightly. To cook it more than half
an hour is usually TO ruin it. to -discolor

Several hours before the caulifiower Is
to be eaten trim it, removing the outer
leaves and the stalk. Then prepare q
basinful OF cold water with a teaspoonful
Of salt and teaspoonful of vinegar and
immerse the cauliflower head down, al
lowing it to remain thus for an hour or
more. Some housewives will shudder
when they know the motive of this pro-
cedure-but knowing It they will no doubt
want to take the precaution. The salt

Fleeing Views.

The motion picture magazines have re-
ported that the demand for American
cowboy and Indian pictures is decreas-
ing in Europe. where pictures of this
type were once very popular. This is
another mark of decided intelligence on
the part of the European audiences. Not
that there are no good films of this sort.
Some Indian pictures and some Of the
Western cowboy films are very, very
good. But they are exceptions. Most Of
them are exaggerated to the steenth de-
gree and bloodthirtsy in every scene
