PREPARED by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
No farming people have ever been
able economically to maintain the Ter
tility of their soils without the use OF
live stock. Farming without the use
of manures Is waste of energy ana
results in the exhaustion OF soils. The
neglect in preserving and increasing
the quantity of farm manures has re-
suited In a great drain on the natural
resources of the American farm. es-
pecially In the southern part OF the
United States. The lack of intelligent
care. of the waste products and the
convenient form of commercial fertil-
izers have Jointly been responsible for
the almost general neglect OF farm
manures. A much greater value can
be had from commercial fertilizers
when used wisely in connection with
manure and green crops.
The use Of barnyard manure Is the
best means Of improving the condition
Of the soils, and the Importance of
carefully preserving all the manure
products on the farm for judiclOus use
on the cultivated fields cannot be too
strongly impressed on the farmers.
One of the principal reasons for the
small value sometimes realized from
manure of any kind Is that 1t has not
been properly handled and through
exposure and neglect has lost large
percentage Of it's plant food. Prob
ably from IS to 80 per cent of the
fertilizing value of a crop Is left In
the manure after passing through the
animal. Since the f.. tilizer in soluble
form and the manure quickly begin to
ferment with loss Of nitrogen, we
have some idea of why it is Of the
utmost Importance to protect the
manure supply from teaching by rains,
excessive fermentation, or from other
sources of loss.
The Cornell university experiment
station found that as much as 30 per
cent Of the plant-fOod constituents in
manure may be lost by teaching and
unnecessary fermentation. The prob
lem is how best and most ecOnomical-
~ to prevent this loss. The best plan
where It is practicable is to haul out
the manure regularly. spread it upon
the land, and pillow 1t under. The
best results usually are obtained by
turning under shallow. The next best
plan is to keep the stock under sheds
or in stables with sufficient litter to
absorb all liquids. This treatment will
not only take up moisture but the con
tinual trampling Of the animal will ex
clude all air. so that the accumulation
may 60 on without injury to Its quail
ity until a convenient time to remove

nARIS.-There is no doubt now that
the French designers will put
through their plan to give US
skirts that are longer and less wide.
There is no return, however. to the
sheath or hobble skirt. Not a ripple
on the surface Of fashion indicates
that woman will have less freedom In
walking because Of the tightness of
the hem.
There is q great deal Of fullness
taken out of the side seams in the new
skirts, and the effect is more like the
full skirts of the eighteenth century
than those Of last winter.
A few of the Paris houses cut their
walking skirts only three yards wide.
Four yards, however. was q more gen.
eral measurement, and many Of the
evening skirts fell to the floor in slight
fullness, with q sizeable train behind.
Even this moderate amount of full
ness is not held out by cerclettes or
crinoline, nor is there any tendency
toward the barrel skirt or the exag-
geration Of the hips by the vatican
panniers.
No Hip Distension.
Mind you, there Is still an orna'
mentation Of the hips, but it Is not

of the belief that the sides of skirt
should be brought into relief.
Lanvin originated this trimming
and Poiret put good deal of EN-
phasis on 1t in slightly different way
1t consists Of q stitched or embrOid
cred band or bedroom slipper with Q
rounded toe. and this is placed down

part Of the belt.
Certain forms of this slipper trim

10 the Short Skirt Doomedf
There may be a few hundred youni
women and girls who will insist upol
the extra short skirt until they are as
sured that 1t - doomed. 1t is graceful
on all those who are not burdenet
with height or width. but 1t has beeI
carried to such degrees of absurdit,
during the last six months by womel
who should have known better, tina
one does not look with any sorrow Of
its threatened downfall.

plicity, which, after all. is far better
than expensive ugliness. Gowns are
priced beyond the dreams of avarice,
today. and no one but a buyer for a
rich American firm can afford more
than one in Paris at this season
No plausible reason is given for this
increase in prices. There is no need OF
one. Paris needs all the money she
can get and she is no different from
any other section of humanity on this
planet in demanding all she can get
when she knows that the world is de-
pendent on her work.
Whether or not this will mean that
the American people will pay more for
their autumn clothes Is In the balance.
We, the laymen. have never found
that the American commercial world
ever had the slightest hesitation In
getting all 1t could out Of us.
Fashions That Are Promised.
Several Of the French houses still
insist upon the Russian influence In
clothes, but this does not mean the in
fuence of the Russian ballet There
is a vast difference between the
clothes of a Cossack and those Of a
slave in Scheherazada.

RED PEPPER AS sTIMULANT
eriy Arranged House Vastly
Superior In Value.

The use Of red pepper as a stimu-
liant for laying is largely a myth I;
plenty of a balanced ration and warm
quarters. properly lighted and ven-
tilated. are all vastly superior in value
to make hens lay as compared with
excessive feeding Of such a condi-
ment as red pepper. Adding a little
condiment occasionally to hot wet
mash will stimulate appetite when
the fowls do not appear to be eating
as well as usual. 1t should not form
part of the daily ration. even in
cold weather.
