WOMEN TAKE UP FARM WORK
War Has Made II More or Less Neees-
sary in Enaland-Use Special
Costume.

Farm work for women has become
fashionable. College girls from Newn-
ham, Oxford and almost the entire en-
rollment from Sheffield university are
among the volunteers for war work
in the fields. and girls who had pre-
yiously devoted all their energies to
sport and fashion are making fad
OF Il a special costume for women
farmers has been designed and exhib-
tied. The suit is made of tough
brown linen fashioned into n long coat
buttoned down the front. Knicker'
bockers of the same material are
worn underneath, buttoning below the
knee. This costume is not only cheap,
but allows as much freedom of move
ment as mans dress. Because of the
knickers the women farmers can climb
trees for pruning or picking fruit.
Some prejudice Is encountered on the
part of the old-fashioned farmers.
When they receive an application for
work from girl who looks like the
dairymaid OF n comic opera, they are
inclined to give n refusal on the spot.
Most of the applicants have little idea
OF what real farm work is like. They
think of n rose-covered cottage. with
tea served in the garden among the
flowers, and an arcadian existence.
But they are willing to learn about
pigs, chickens and stock. and gen
orally do we'll at fruit picking and
hay raking-London Mall.

The premier had 20 deal with huge
figures TO explain the financing Of the
war and warned his hearers that al
though the expenditure was now more
than 81 500. 900 daily. there was a Ike
Ihcod Of IT'S increasing owing 70 the
advance TO the allies and to the do
ninions-which had reached s1-e50.-

Since the war began nearly 1900. 900
men. he said. had enlisted IN the army
and navy. Besides 100000 persons
we're now engaged IN the manufacturs
Of munitions. But both figures would
have to be Increased. and he appealed
to the women to give their assistance.

Reviewing the military situation. Mr.
Asquith stated that in France and

4 considerable extension Of lines taken
over from the French

Russian army remains unhruken- He
asserted that the superiority Of the
Germans was only IN artillery and that
their objective was still far cut CT
