THE FAMILY BUDGET.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

A family. whose income was $500 a
year had never saved cent They were
not profligate in any sense They paid a
moderate rent for house in the location
where they thought it best for the two
children to grow up, they did not set
an elaborate table nor wear costly
clothes, but still they lived up to their
income-the money went. and half the
time they did not know how.
Then. not long ago. one of the children
had bad case of mastoiditis, which kept
him several weeks in the hospital and
the bills for medical attention approx
mated $3.50. They decided to borrow the
sum and pay it back out OF their income
SO for the first time they drew up a fam
lily budget in which they made an inven-
tory of their expenses. A complete re-
adjustment in household expenditures
followed, and they saved the amount of
the loan within the year. After that. they
got the habit. and put a certain per cent
of their income in the local savings
bank every month.
1t usually takes some sudden financial

The Turned-Up Tunic.

The feature of the skirt that caused
the name "Washerwoman" to be an
neXed to il was the turned-up tunic
that. after all. was colonial and revo-
1utionary. There have been constantly
recurring decades in the history of
womens costumery that have called
for the turning up of the top part of
the skirt into some coquettish line. 1t
may have been suggested by the cos
tune of the washerwoman on the
banks of the Seine or the maids in the
Marie Antoinette dairy.
There never was anything new about
it. 1t is merely a couuettish phase of
clothes that pops up now and then to
redeem the severity of certain kinds
of skirts.
In the sketch shown today there is
boX-pleated skirt of white serge.
with a turned-up tunic of the same
material hanging down in two big
loops at the back. The hem of the
skirt is cut into battlements. and it is
quite worth remembering that large
majority of the new skirts are orna
mented in some such way at their low
err line. The exact edge of the skirt
may not be made into a design, but
there will be some kind of stitchery
or stitched bands or applied material
of some sort just above the hem to
break up it's regularity.

Crisis Teaches
Need of Saving

the American attitude toward thrift. The
great men of all the nations have been
holding forth on the value of economy,
and the words of an American financier
have been quoted widely. "If you want
TO know whether you are destined to be
a success or failure in life. you can easily
find out. Ask yourself but one question:
Are you able to save money? If not drop
out of the procession, for the seed of sue
cess is not in you
SO thrift has ceased TO be ignomnious
but the great trouble lies in the fact that
many people don't know how to save.
When factories and other business enter
prises desire TO save more money. they
obtain the services of an efficiency eX-
pert. who points out various places where
there is unnecessary waste. But the
householder has nothing to guide him
but his own common sense. There are
many different ways of saving and
what is successful in one case will not
prove so in another.
In every household. however, there
should be budget simple system of
bookkeeping whereby the income is
distributed into various divisions. in
Guiding shelter, food, clothing. operat-
ing expenses. which comprise heat.
light laundry, etc; education, amuse-
ment and savings. There is no uni
versal consensus of opinion as to how
much should be expended on each item
as some people prefer to pay more for
rent and less for food. or more for
clothes and lesS for rent, but various
schedules have; been suggested. An
equable adjustment of incomes from
$1,000 to $1,000 a year. for example, is
given as 80 per cent for food. % per
cent for rent; clothing. "A per cent: OPP
Grating expenses. Is per cent: educa-
ton, per cent; luxuries. including
amusements, 4 per cent, which leaves
10 per cent to be saved. The majority
of persons spend more nearly 10 per
cent for luxurieS, and as consequence
other things must Suffer-usually the
savings account.

THE UpTURNED TUNIC STILL POPULAR.
BY ANNE RITTENHoUsE.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
NEW YORK. April 20.-There was
not much excitement over the washer
woman's skirt that France once sent
to America, so she is trying to get an
other clientele by making it this time
in fascinating manner and saying
that it is really the right thing to
wear.
Its first claim to our admiration and
acceptance is the fact that the lower
part of it is box pleated. American
women like pleated skirts.
So far the majority of the pleated
skirts were made of jersey cloth. and
the French leader in this type of cos
tumery is Channel, who has dressed
the swart women at Deauville. St.
Maritz and the Lido for several years.
Americans are copying the Channel
suits for 1916. These arc entirely de-
signed for American resort life. as the
only fashions that go at Deauville this
year are uniforms for soldiers, Red
Cross nurses and convalescents

WHO To VOTE FOR

Eugene Lorton, editor OF the World,
yesterday issued the following state
ment with reference to the nomina-
ton Of two Republican candidates for
the state legislature from this county:
"On the state ballot that will be
given each voter next Tuesday will ap-
pear the names of five candidates for
state representative from Tulsa cOuD-
ty | had understood that all but two
Of these had withdrawn from the
race, and am unable to explain why
their names still appear on the ballot.
/ believe il to be TO the best interest
Of the Republican party and the coun-
ty as a whole, to nominate Harry H..
Rogers and Glenn Condor for these
places. They are well known and will
make strong candidates. They will
greatly help the entire ticket and both
OF them will be elected, II nominated,
rs they Will receive almost as many
Democratic votes as Republican votes
trust that the Republicans Of the
county will keep this in mind and
nominate these two men at the com

BEWARE OF "EUREKA CLOVER"
A Much Exploited Plant That Doesn't
Come UptO Promises.

Under the name, Eureka clover
certain dealers are advertising a for
age plant for which enormous yields
or green fodder are asserted. The
plant in question is sachaline intro
duced into the United States in 1888
and much exploited in 1893 and for
a few years thereafter, declares a bull
letin of the department of agriculture
Sachaline is a native of the island
of SaSbalien. The plant is a hardy
herbaceous perennial an dspreads by
stout creeping rootsocks. The stems
of well grown plants become six to
hfteen feet high and bear numerous
large heart-shaped leaves. The flow
ers are small, reenihs-white and form
in small clusters in the axis of the
leaves. Seeds are produced rather
spariDgly.
Tests of the plant were made by the
department of agriculture and by
many experiment stations. Most Of
the reports are adverse, the plant not
thriving well under the conditions
tested but partially favorable results
were secured in Florida, Iowa. North
Carolina and Massachuset
Sachaline never has secured any
definite agricultural status in this
country. Occasionally splendid speci-
mems are found in gardens which
seem to Indicate that great yields un-
der field conditions might be obtained.
but such hopes thus far have not been
realized
In the advertisements of Eureka
clover" 1t is claimed that in western
Oregon it will yield over three hun
dred tons of green foliage to the acre.
In Europe 1t was asserted that yields
of from one hundred to two hundred
tons per acre were secured. In all
cases published, however, the yield
seems to have been estimated from the
produce of single plant a method
which gives results far greater than
ever are realized in actual agricul-
ture

Expert Makes Report Set

|; to Be Met.
WILL BE HARD TASK
Building of Filtration Plant
Will Take at Least
One Year.

In compliance with the request
made by the Chamber of Commerce
and in pursuance of resolution
passed by the city commissioners, G.
Arthur Brown, chief engineer, bureau
of engineering, water publication for
the American Steel and Wire COM
pany, has just completed n report of
the Tulsa water supply system which
has been placed in the hands of c. s.
y Hounkman, water commissioner.
The report, which is embraced in
u pages of manuscript, deals in de
tail with the present water supply,
the conditions to be met at different
stages of the source of supply, quality
Of the supply, the lack of reliable
analysis and other features which are
necessary in making a survey of the
local wJtterwOrks system.
The report says in part:
THE salt contained in the natural
water cannot be removed by any
practical treatment.
'It is fair to assume that the cost
of chemical treatment Will be about
$40 per million gallons treated, prob
pbly less than sl5.
Can Construct Plant.
"A publication plant which will be
capable of performing this work can
be designed and constructed.
'It this plant is built it will be suf-
ficient to purify water from any other
source.
The city is now using an average
of 5000 900 gallons per day. At GER
tain hours this rises to 100000 gal
Ions"
While these are but few of the
many conclusions reached by Mr.
Brown, they all are used in arriving ut
the conclusions which is stated in his
report in the following words.
"'Thc rate of 5,i60,000 gallons is
now attained Before the plant goes
into service, the time period of consid-
cradle quantities of water passing
through the basins when both are in
use or one, would be reduced to
3 hours ard 81 minutes, or /
hour and AZ minutes when only one
vas in service With a rate Of $780,
time period would fall hours and
when one was in use.
"It is seen that the size of the set
Ting basins as fixed by the present
construction is too small to permit
th"m to function properly. Unless
larger basins and more time period for
Eedimentation be provided the ex-
pense Of operation and upkeep will be
excessive, and possibly prohibitory.
''It will require at least one year
to build the proposed plant IL the
work is pushed from the instant the
lond issue passes. This means that IT
will be well into the year 1917 before
the plant can 20 into operation"
