G many new patterns in scarfs and
~ muff1ers made their appearance on
shop counters for tie holiday trade
that they could not be overlooked
And upon inspection certain new fea-
lures were evident Il them that led
the mind to an inference not to be es-
capped. The inference is that, along
with so many other accessories of
dress, the muffier must be washable in
order to be salable.
Those that pleased the public most
were knitted (by machinery of mer-
cerized cotton or some other fiber that
looks just like silk. Many different
riety. Most of the mufFlers were cream
white, many of them gray, very few
were black, and there were fine COM
binations of black and white that sold
readily. Two shades of gray made an
elegant combination with the lighter
shade and as border on darker
ground Many of the mufflers were
finished with silk tape fringe. A hand
some muffler of this kind sells at
moderate price, a dollar being about
the average to be paid for the knitted
ones.
There is little difference in the pat
terms made for men and women. White
mufflers knitted in the fancier stitches
were naturally selected for women,
with gray or black and white favored
for men.
Besides these moderately heavy and
medium sized silky-looking patterns
there were long heavy muffiers of wool
made of ample length ard width to be
wrapped about the neck, for those who
are devoted to outdoor winter sports.
The handsomest were of white angora

bit of garlic is an improvement. Give
the eggs six or~seven whisks and pour
into a pint granite dish that has been
well buttered. Set this in the gas
oven and turn on both burners after
the dish has been put into the oven.
AS soon as the eggs have risen to the
top of the dish, turn off one burner
and then as soon as the eggs are set,
turn off the other, leaving the eggs
few minutes longer. They must not
remain over twenty minutes, and
often fifteen minutes will be enough,
depending upon the gas pressure.

RATE INCREASE
NECESSARY
FARMERS UNION OFFICIALS
THINK RAILROADS ARE EN-
TITLED TO MORE REVENUE.
Products Of Pillow and Farmer Who
Lives at Home Should Be
Exempt From Increase.
BY Peter Radford.
Lecturer National Farmers Union

Lecturer National Farmers Union
The recent action of the Interstate
Commerce Commission in granting an
increase in freight rates in the eastern
classification Of territory; the applica-
ton Of the roads to state and inter
state commissions for an increase In
rates, and the utterances of President
Wilson on the subject bring the farm
ers of this nation face to face with the
problem of an increase in freight
rates. 1t is the policy of the Farmers
Union to meet the issues affecting the
welfare of the farmers squarely and
we will do so in this instance.
The transportation facilities of the
Uni I'd States are inadequate to ef-
fectively meet the demands of COM
MERGE and particularly in the South
and West additional railway mileage
is needed to accommodate the move
ment of farm products. If In the wis
dom of our Railroad Commissions an
increase in freight rates is necessary
to bring about an improvement in our
transportation service, and an extern
sion of our mileage. then an increase
should be granted, and the farmer Is
willing to share such proportion OF
the increase as justly belongs to him,
but we have some suggestions to make
as to the manner in which this In
crease shall be levied.
Rates Follow Lines of Least Resist
ance.
The freight rates of the nation have
been built up along lines of least re-
sistance. The merchant, the manu-
facturer, the miner, the miller, the
lumberman and the cattleman have
had their traffic bureaus thoroughly
organized and in many instances they
have pursued the railroad without
mercy and with the power of organ
lied tonnage they have hammered the
life out of the rates and with unre-
strained greed they have eaten the
vitals out Of our transportation system
and since we have had railroad COM
missions, these interests, with skill
and cunning, are represented at every
hearing in which their business Is
involved. =
The farmer is seldom represented
at rate hearings, as his organizations
have never had the finances to en-
ploy counsel to develop his side OF
the case and, as a result, the products
of the pillow bear an unequal burden
of the freight expense. A glance at
the freight tariffs abundantly proves
this assertion Cotton, the leading
agricultural product Of the South, al
ready bears the highest freight rate OF
any necessary commodity in COM
merce, and the rate on agricultural
products as a whole is out of pro-
portion with that of the products OF
the factory and the mine.
We offer no schedule of rates, but
hope the commission will be able to
give the railroad such an increase in
rates as is necessary without levying
further toll upon the products OF
the plow. The instance seems to pre-
sent an opportunity to the Railroad
Commissions to equalize the rates as
between agricultural and other classes
of freight without disturbing the rates
on staple farm products.

For the Man Guest,

Much has been said about the COM
forts and conveniences which a guest
room should offer i, the way of sew
ing supplies and reading matter for
feminine guests. L seems that the
masculine cause has been neglected.
AS a contribution to their comfort
have on the guest room bureau a small
Japanese cabinet, in which are collar
buttons, black and tan shoe strings,
heavy safety pins a few useful but
tons, with heavy needles and thread
and other odds and ends which expert
ence has taught are likely to meet
masculine needs.

would prefer that the rate on plows
remain the same, and machinery,
pianos and such articles as the poor
er farmer cannot hope to possess bear
the burden of increase.
The increase in rates should be so
arranged that the farmer who lives
at home will bear no part of the bur
den, but let the farmer who boards
in other states and countries and
who feeds his stock in. foreign lands.
pay the price of his folly.

ends. And for dressy wear mufflers
OF heavy silk, hemmed at the ends and
adorned with the monogram of the
owner, remained the choice of those
whose taste is unquestioned. Light
gray is far and away in the lead as to
colors.
The most fashionable of soarfs for
women are apparently those made of
crepe de chine. This alluring fabric,
in the good qualities, is not hurt in the
least by washing. 1t is therefore ex-
tending it's field of usefulness These
scarfs of crepe are made in all the
light colors, and some of them are ex-
quisitely embroidered in floral designs
in self-color. They are hemmed at the
ends.

Strong Navy Our Best
Insurance For
Peace
By Colonel R. M, THOMPSON, Navy
League of the United States
THE best insurance the United

THE best insurance the United
/ States can have is the navy.
There is no fear that we shall
get into a war if we can hold our
own on the seas for one year, BE-
CAUSE IN A YEAR WE COULD
GET AN ARMY BIG ENOUGH
AND TRAINED AND SKILLED
ENOUGH TO HOLD OFF ANY
WOULD BE INVADER.
We simply must be able to hold
the sea year against any invader,
for that will give us time to make
ready our army to take the field,
We need large navy to do this,
and if we have it we need have no
fear of aggression, because ours is
policy of protection. War often
starts without blame on either side,
but we have always pursued poll
cy of protection.
For the past two thousand years
there has not been period OF
world peace for over two years.
This has been permitted by the AL
mighty. 1t is the same as disease.
We have adequate measures for pre-
venting disease, and adequate arma-
ment prevents war.
WE MIGHT AS WELL ABOLISH
THE POLICE OF NEW YORK AS
TO ABANDON OUR ARMY AND
NAVY. THE POLICE MUST STAY
UNTIL ALL MEN ARE PERFECT,
AND THE SAME APPLIES TO THE
ARMY AND NAVY.

DRAWS LINE AT INKY STAMPS
Uncle Sam Ready to Redeem Them,
But They Can Not Be Used to
Carry a Letter.

'fHow dirty can a postage stamp be-
come and still letain it's usefulness in
the eyes of the government" was a
question propounded to middle the al
ready overworked brain of a busy
man. Happening to meet a postman
who was collecting mail, the man
handed him a stamped letter.
"'That won't co. said the postman.
Stamps dirty"
AS was his wont on special occa-
sions, he busy man resorted to sar-
casm.
"Since when" he demanded, "did
the United States government be-
come so immaculate that it requires
none but unsuliled stamps stuck on
its letters?'
well, they've always been pretty
particular" returned the unperturbed
postman,< ''but there are some kinds
Of dirt that count for more than 9TH
ers. That stamps got ink on 1t.
Inky stamps won't go, because an ink
spot could be used to disguise can
celed stamp"
'Then suppose every stamp hap
pen to drop a speck of ink on Is
wasted?''
ooh, no. Turn it in to the office
where you bought it, and after a GER
tain period you will get your money
back
''How long will that take?" the man
asked.
FAbout three months"
''Tm afraid I can't wait" said the
man, and over the discredited stamp
he stuck a spotless one.
