The war in Europe has made itself
felt in this country in so many ways
it is not surprising to learn that the
curtai1ed importation has affected
even the manufacture of bluing, and
this circumstance has deeper signifl-
canoe for the American housewife
than one would suppose, as shown by
some interesting facts given out by
the c. A. Murdoch Mfg Co., of Kan
sas City.
Murdock's Bluing is known as the
very finest obtainab1e, and in making
it. a German -unimportant
in name, but very essential to the
quality of the bluing-is used. At the
beginning of the war, when the price
of all imported supplies began to
climb, the Murdoch Company. fore
seeing a still greater decrease in the
supply and proportiOnate increase in
prices, contracted for an enormous
quantity of the German Mineral suffi-
cient to carry them through the pinch
of war.
Oxalic and other acids, of which
there has always beer a cheap and
plentiful supply in this country, were
even previous to the war used in max
ing many brands of b1uing- and now,
with the supply of the German Mineral
practically cut off, an even larger per
cent of the bluing on the market is
made from these acids which are very
destructive to cotton and linen articles.
Particular housewives should select
a brand of bluing known to be above
the use of OXalic and others of these
destructive acids; and which now are
so commonly found in bluing made by
manufacturers who have been forced
by the exigencies of war to disregard
standards of quality.
Women who wish to heed this sug-
gestion will find the label on b1uing
a sure protection, since inferior in
gradients must be named on the label.
Murdock's bluing is warranted free
from all acids-look for the Murdoch
label. ADV.

The slope or exposure of an orchard
site IS the point of the compass
toward which the land inclines. A
question very commonly asked is,
What slope is best?" 1t is one that
admits of no direct answer. No one
slope is preferable under all condi-
tions and in all regions. In fact, the
influence which a particular exposure
may have in the success of an orchard
is probably much over-emphasized in
the popular mind.

1t is safe to say that farmers who
have observed the stock raising feature
of farming and utilized judiciously the
manure from the stock and practiced
rotation, have not only maintained
the fertility of their soils but increased
1T, while those who have neglected
this feature have paid the penalty in
deficient crops.

the productive area that supports the
great city in which you face the flu

idea, because l lived through most
of it with them. The hardships and
disappointments of pioneer life on the
prairies did not dishearten them.
They did not complain when drouth
and hot winds might well have blasted
their hope. Why, I remember when
your grandfather had to haul water to
our old claim for family from a
spring eight miles away. Failure sue
ceeded failure, but father was not dis
heartened. He persevered, useful in
the work of his time, and he sue

of those with whom he lived and
worked Time keeps me from going
further in discussion of what your
ancestors have done. Most of it you
know. Why, it is only few years
ago that one of your uncles, without
what appeared to be his only chance
for usefulness on the last prairie
frontier. He embraced it, uncom-
plaining1y and he made a home for
his family and place for himself in
the respect of those with whom his
IOC was cast because he unQ0IlOOS
his hard task with unbroken spirit and
with determination to make his own
opportunity. And in doing this he
obeyed a tradition of his family. He
made himself useful in the opening
that presented itself, as self-re1iant
money to do that That's the thought
want you to get. And they don't
need to get money to be successful,
either. Your ancestors have paid less
to getting money than they
have to being useful. That's a family
Gus one. Perhaps your family history
and your family traditions are much
like those of most of the young men
around you. They are nightly in
terwoven with American history and
American traditions. There may be
your fathers, but there are tasks for
your generation and you are as well
equipped to meet them as was that
Bo1en who landed in America 100
years ago, with two dollars, to meet
his task. Perhaps your equipment is

is the same amount that he had when
he took up his career in a new world.
If you follow his example, and are
true to family traditions, yours will be
a successful life because it will be a
useful life. Be useful in the little
things, and you will find larger oppor-
tunities for usefulness continually
