Big Saving to Farmer and City Man

Atlanta, Ga.-(Special )-The farm

in the habit of paying the supply mer-
chant for his food supplies The man
with back yard city lot, turned into
a garden, can save on his living ex-
penses In the same proportion.
The man in the city has been hit

in the country, and here in Atlanta the
Agricultural Committee of the Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce, of which H. G..
Hastings is chairman, is actively en-
couraging the back yard city garden
as one OF the most effective steps in
solving the problem of living. One At.
lantan made $3.50 worth Of vegetables
last year on less than one-sixteenth OF
an acre. Others have been encourag-
ed to try It, and this spring will see
Atlanta full of home gardens.
THE farmers of the South, in my
opinion" Mr. Hastings said, have
well learned the lesson Of the cotton
crisis, and believe they are going to
keep 1t learned. They realize now as
never before that they must make
cotton their servant instead of their
master, and making food crops is the
only way to do 1t.
"The first big step toward the solu-
ton of this problem is the home gar
den-an all-the-year-round garden
one that is kept busy growing food for
the table every month in the year. A
garden like this means q saving OF
half the living expense Of any family;
II is worth more as a money saver
than any five acres Of cotton ever
grown.
City families pay fancy prices for
vegetables and other food products
which the farmer can have on his Ia
BILE without the expenditure Of dol
lar, and this would mean to the farm
ers of the South an aggregate saving
of millions of dollars they are now
paying out annually for food supplies,
that might be turned into bank ac-
counts"

PARIS DRESSMAKERS
WAR OVER MRS. GAIT
Comments Were Classed as "Piffle" at
the White House Yesterday on
the Gown Strife.

Washington, Nov. 20.---Dispatches from
Paris, published in this country to the
effect that French dressmakers are at
war over gowns which Mrs. Norman Gait,
fiancee of President Wilson, was having
made by modistes in France, were CLASH
fled as "pifile' yesterday at the White
House.
The Paris story is that announcement
was made by Paul Poiret, president of
the Dressmakers' syndicate, that no
gowns intended for Mrs. Edith Boiling
Gait will be delivered through Charles
Kurzmann of New York or through any
other German house" Any member of
the syndicate will, however, according to
the announcement, be pleased to make
a gown for the presidents iiancee, pre-
senting the raiment rs compliment.
The house of Kurzmann on Fifth ave-
nue. yesterday denied any foreign pro-
Iprietorship.
The refusal to serve Mrs. Gait, which
is announced in IOeuyre, the news
paper of Gustav Terry, is taken as an in
ldication that American gown ablish-
ments suspected of German ownership
are to be henceforth boycotted by the
French. LOeuvre says that kurzmann
has threatened to make the matter a
diplomatic issue.
Charles kurzman has been in Paris,
according to the report, under commits
sion to buy gowns for Mrs. Gait. Each
house to which he has appealed has re-
fused to accept orders from him while
offering to supply them directly to Mrs.
Gait with its compliments, is the story.
Would Do 1t Free
Paul Poiret is not in Paris. The an
nouncement of the modistes' refusal to
serve Kurzmanp was confirmed through
his private secretary.
''No member of our syndicate" the see
rotary said, will deliver gowns to Kurz-
man or through him or any other Ger
man house. At the same time each and
every member of the syndicate win be
pleased to be honored with commits
sion to make a gown for President Will

mitted to do so to make the gown a |

Washington, ID. c., Nov. 20.-President
Wilson and his cabinet yesterday con-

All the information so far obtained

fore the cabinet by Secretary Lansing.
BY next Tuesdays meeting it is hoped
complete information will be available
to begin drafting the Austrian note.
Officials said it was foregone con-
clnsion that vigorous representations
would be made because of the conclusive
evidence that passengers were not al

the Ancona had stopped. While the ext

CITY OWNERSHIP
CANADA SUCCESS
Story of How Municipal Proprietorship
of Public Utilities Came Out Told
in United States Consular
Report

Washington, Nov. 20.--The story OF
the success of municipal ownership OF
public utilities by the city of Calgary,
in the province of Alberta, Canada is
told in a report to the department Of
commerce by Consul Samuel c. Reat.
Beginning with 1900 Calgary, by pur-
chase, formed the nucleus of the present
system of waterworks. This was fol-
lowed in 1904 by constructing munich
pal electric light plant. In September,
1908, the construction Of municipality
owned street railway system was start
ed.
The report deals with each project
separately and shows how it has pro-
crossed financially. The waterworks af-
ford moderate schedule of domestic
rates. The plant has over 100 miles of

WHAT TO DO FOR
ITCHING SKINS

Eczema, ringworm and other itching,
burning skin eruptions are SO easily
made worse by improper treatment that
one has to be very careful. There is one
method, however, that you need not hes
itate to use, even on baby's tender
slin--that is, the resinol treatment.
Resinol is the prescription of Balti-
more doctor, put up in the form of res
mol ointment and resinol soap. This
proved so remarkably successful that
thousands of other physicians have been
prescribing it constantly for 20 years.
Resinol stops itching instantly, and
almost always heals the eruption quick
ly and at little cost. Resinol ointment
and resinol soap can be bought at any
druggists.

CLEARS BLOTCHY SKIN

Try resinol soap for a week. You
will be surprised to see how it clears
and freshens your complexion, even in
that short time. Used for the sham
poo, it removes dandruff and keeps the
hair live, rich and lustrous. This is
because it contains the soothing, heal
ing resinol medication.
