SHOULD NOT HOLD POTATOES
Government Men Say Not to Expect
Big Prices.

In announcing that unusually large
stocks of potatoes were held on jan
uary 1 in the large potato producing
states, the department of agriculture
warned southern growers, who usually
sell their spring crops in competition
with the stocks carried over in the
northern states, to take notice of the
situation.
Prices are unusually low and, there
fore, may not decline further, the de-
rartments statement said, "but ma
terial advances In the next few months
cannot be forecasted from present sup
plies The United States seldom i'm
ports or exports relatively large
quantity of potatoes. Therefore the
European war has no material direct
bearing upon the potato market Of the
United States"

For Bald Head and Corduroy
Skirt

Dear Miss Doom:
Can you tell me how to dye white
corduroy skirt Alice blue? | would
like to do 1t at home. Also can you
suggest something a young man who
is getting bald may use to make his
hair grow? VERA
Any preparation which YOU would
purchase to dye the skirt would give
you full directions. Be sure that you
let out the hem and wash skirt care
fully before you attempt TO dye It.
Falling hair, an indication of a
diseased condition of the scalp, may
be remedied mi two ways. One is to
take n tonic internally, to build up
the general strength, and the other is
to treat the scalp externally. The
latter does not take time nor thought
and is not difficult.
A massage given every night is
most beneficiary, followed by the ap-
pllcation of a good tonic The follow
ing is very good:
One dram OF alcoholic tincture of
cantharlde, half dram of tincture
of capsicum, two drains OF nux vom-
lea, three-quarters of an ounce OF
cocoa oil and two and a half ounces
OF cologne. If the hair happens to
be heavy with natural grease one
more likely to agree is made from
half an ounce of alcoholic tincture
of rosemary, glycerine and aromatic
vinegar, with an ounce and half
of rose water.
Either of these is applied in the
same way and should be used every
night.

OF course, you remember about
little Rags, the dog that saved Hunk
when he fell over cliff and broke his
leg. Well, this is about another ad-
venture in which Rags played the
hero for a second time.
After he had gotten used to his
bright new collar, Rags would lie for
hours on the front lawn, right by
Baby Pauline's cradle. For everyone
knew she must have fresh air and
they also knew that the dog would
not let anyone touch her without
fight.
Here he would stay for the entire
morning, mapping when the baby
slept and playing with her when she
was awake. So the time passed on
very pleasantly.
One morning the children all came
out in the yard directly after break
fast, so as to arrange some boxes
down by the gate in order to see a
circus procession pass. About 10 the
parade started and the bands came
by with big bursts of music. AS soon
as Hunk heard the noise he ran out
of the house to join the children at
the gate.
Hello, Rags, old boy" he said as
the dog trotted up for pat on the
head. "You are looking fine today
take good care of the baby while we
watch the parade go by"
And as Rags limped back to the
cradle Hunk smiled sadly, thinking
that Rags was getting too old to be
trusted with the baby. And the dog
seemed to read the mans mind, Tor
he laid his head solemnly on his paws
and kept blinking his eyes Just like
people do when they want to Keep the
tears from coming.
The baby woke and Rags played
with her for some time, pulling her
rattle away and bringing the sticks
as fast as she would toss them away
into the grass, but she soon grew tired
and went off into another nap. SO
the dog lay down again, watching the
flags and music trembling on the air.
Then around at the back OF the
house he heard a queer bark--a short,
hoarse yelp-that he did not under
stand. But he started to his feet and
sprang before the cradle.
AS he did so there came around the
house on run big, yellow cur, it's
eyes blinking wildly and it's open
mouth dripping foam. over in the
lane at the side a policeman was
running toward the dog, while a
couple Of boys screamed at the top
of their voices. Mad dog! Mad dog"
The animal rushed straight to-
ward the baby, but Rags stood
bravely in front. Hunk heard the
cry of Mad dog" but was too far off
at the gate to- reach the baby in

Honey, the Wholesome Sweet. How to
Use 1t.

Honey, the wholesome Sweet. How to
Use 1t.
Since I heard that one tablespoonful
value as one egg I've been using this
delicious sweet In many ways. Sug-
ary substances are always favorites
on our table, although neither Bob
nor I like complicated, mixed up
desserts. Nowadays honey of the pur-
est variety can be bought at fairly
low price, and adulteration of honey
Is not common, as it was years ago.
OF course, one can't use honey just
as one would sugar in the same pro-
portions, but honey Is nevertheless a
good substitute for sugar-more
wholesome and more favorable, es-
pecially In cakes and cookies. Honey
is also ever so good when used with
cereals in place of the usual cream
and sugar dressing. Another of its
charms is that It's splendid on the
emergency shelf
Honey Sandwiches-Most delicious
sandwiches can be made on short
notice by mixing q few tablespoon
fuls of honey with chopped walnuts
and spreading on three very thin lay
ers of white bread.
Honey Filling For Layer Cake
While the layers are still hot spread
with the mixture of one tablespoonful
of lemon juice, two heaping table,
spoonfuls of granulated honey which
have been stirred to a smooth paste.
This is a quickly made and very
flavorful filling.
Honau Tolixy. n0a hale o,,nP,,I 80
honey, two eggs, one teaspoonful OF
gelatine, one-half pint of whipped
cream. Honey, gelatine and the yolks
of the two eggs are boiled together for
three minutes. When cool the we'll
beaten whites of two eggs and the
whipped cream are added, the mix
ture chilled and served in dessert
glasses.
Honey-Plum Butter-Two quarts of
plums are rubbed through a colander
and then brought to q boil. One quart
of honey Is added and the mixture
boiled for about fifteen minutes. 1t
must be tested by trying a small
amount to see whether 1t ctusts on
! being finished. 1t must be stirred
often while boiling to prevent scorch-
| ing.
Honey Junket-This is made Just
| like ordinary junket. For two people
the following quantity is sufficient:
1 pint of warm milk, 2 tablespoonfuls
of honey, " junket tablet dissolved
in cold water.
Honey is mixed with warm milk,
then the dissolved junket tablet is
added, and the whole set in q warm
place until firm.
Honey Salad Dressing-1f correctly
prepared this can be kept for two
weeks in a cool place and will be
perfectly good: egg yolks. table,
spoonfuls of butter, tablespoonfuls
of honey, scant teaspoon of mustard.
Egg yolks must be we'll beaten, and
the rest of the ingredients mixed to-
gether we'll, then cooked in a double
boiler until 1t reaches a smooth, pasty
consistency. 1t must be stirred con-
stantly while cooking. When I'm
ished 1t can be kept In a closed jar
in some cool spot. Small quantities
can be taken whenever needed and
thinned for table use by adding thick,
sweet cream.
Instead OF using ordinary butter or
peanut butter "honey-plum" butter Is
a delicious change.

time. yet he came dashing madly to-
ward the house.
Just as the policeman ran in at the
side gate the mad dog sprang to-
ward the baby. Rags sprang, too.
All the fighting blood of his young
days was up and he forgot his age.
With hair bristling and mouth wide
open he met the mad dog, and the
two animals grappled in midair.
Back and forth they leaped and
plunged, biting, snarling and hanging
on to each other. Just then up came
both Hunk and the policeman, while
the baby's mother grabbed IT and
flew into the house with the children.
"Mr. Ohicer," said Hunk, sadly, as
he watched the dogs in a deadly en-
brace, there is only one thing to do
both must be shot"
"Yes. sir" replied the officer, draw
ing his pistol, rags is a brave
hero, but he has been bitten and it
would be dangerous for him to live"
Hunk turned his head away, the po-
liceman sighted his pistol, there was
quick bang, and both dogs lay on
the lawn-dead.
Little Pauline was broken hearted
over Rags's death and sobbed for
hours. But the next day Hunk had
fine box made, a grave dug in the
bottom of the garden, and In the
afternoon all the neighbors came to
see the dog buried. The mound was
covered with flowers. and at the
head was placed beautiful white
marble stone, on which was cut:
