For the small boy recently arrived
at the dignity of blouse and pants
nothing radically new has made Its
appearance in the suits designed for
spring. It is in little details of finish
ing and an occasional minor change In
construction that novelty may De
found. Those who wish to get the
sewing for spring under way are safe
in making up his washable suits ana
play rompers of the usual fabrics.
Belted blouses and boomers, or
straight pants, are made OF colored
chambrays or linens. Sometimes they
combine color with white, more often
a plain and striped pattern, and just
about as often two colors, in the same
suit These serve, with his rcmpers,
as in past seasons for his daily wear.
White linen suits fill in his needs for
more pretentious dress, and these or
velveteen suits bespeak his best effort
to do honor to formal occasions.
Rompers that look trim are made OF
chambray or serge, with straight pants
and long, plain body, cut in one piece.
They open down the back and at the
waist line and have belt for the ma
terial that buttons in front. 1t is
slipped through narrow straps OF the
fabric stitched to the body. of the gar

ished with a narrow sailor collar and
the sleeves with cuffs. A small patch
pocket at the left side and two short
straps across the split at the neck,
fastened with button at each end,
give bit of snappy finish.
A velveteen and linen suit are
shown here. Both are made with
straight pants and belted blouse. The
velvet blouse is plated, with slashes
under the plaits through which the
belt is slipped. The shallow v at the
front of the neck Is filled in with a
white dickey, and the small sailor col
lar, wide cuffs and belt are ell Of
linen.
The linen suit for midsummer is cut
on the simplest lines, with sleeves and
blouse in one piece. 1t is easy to make
and reduces the work of laundering to
the minimum.

Besides fur-fabrics, which gave
chance for a welcome variety in sep
arate coats and Jackets to be worn
with cloth skirts, corduroy has in
creased it's popularity or'this purpose.
Like fur-fabric it is more effectively
used as wrap, with skirt of plain
material, than in suits, and it makes a
handsome full-length coat for either
street or dressy wear.
It's adaptability to many purposes is
explained by it's manufacture in many
colors and of cotton as we'll as wool
or silk. The quieter colorings are
chosen for utility coats, the bright
hues for sports coats, and the richer
qualities provide wraps for evening

Country Will Not Scare.

AS a warning against industrial
overbuilding on the basis either Of
present war business or what is ex-
pected from ravaged and poverty
stricken Europe after the war, the
statement of Chairman Gary Of the
limited States steel corporation is well
placed. But as an attempt to scare
the country into lot Of reactionary
legislation, tariff and other, to meet
post-belIum conditions which neither
he nor anyone else can now confident

likely to carry far. The politics OF

NOT likely.
Republicans and Real Progress
siyes Wide Apart.
Big Interests, Real Rulers Of @. O. p,
Of Course, Desire It, but There
Are Many Obstacles to Be
Overcome.

Boiled down to it's bones of meaning,
the declaration of principles" issued
by certain progressive chiefs means
that they are willing to come back in
to the Republican party. II they can
choose the candidate and get front
seats in the band wagon. Considering
tE.t the Republican party has been
gaining in strength in nearly every
part Of the country while the Progress
sive organization Is well nigh dis
solved, this is about as comprehensive
a bluff as one can find in political his.
tory.
Most commentators on the program
see one great difficulty in the way OF
it's fulfillment. The Journal sees two
difficulties, and the one generally over
looked seems the greater.
The old guard Of the Republican
party will resent this attempt at die
tation, of course, but there may be
ways of modifying their resentment.
For the most part, the old guard takes
its orders from the big interests, and
these interests want to seat their man
in the White House, no matter what
political gymnastics it may take to
accomplish that feat.
Give them back their old tariff graft
and assure them favorable treat
ment" in letting the contracts which
are necessary to the new program OF
national defense, and they care not
a jot for the crime Of the Coliseum
If Roosevelt can satisfy them on these
lines, he can have their support and
that of all their henchmen.
But there is another obstacle to the
fusion plan not SO easily removed. A
considerable part of the rank and file
of the Progressive party were AMI are
dead in earnest. They left the Repub-
lican party on a question of principle
and they will not come back to it on
program of plumber. At the last
by-election in Massachusetts,, nearly
half the vote lost by Progressiyes
went to the Democratic candidate, In
stead of to the Republican one, and
a similar tendency has been shown in
other parts Of the country.
There are some votes which no boss
can deliver, and these make the big
barrier to the fusion plan SO glibly out
lined by self-appointed Progressive
leaders.-Chicago Journal.

GIVE cows SALT REGULARLY
Best Plan Is- to Have Box Handy
Where Animals Can Help Them
selves Whenever They WISH

s Don't forget to salt the cows. In
experiments it has been found that
COW should have three-fourths Of an
ounce OF salt day live weight, with
an additional six-tenths Of an ounce
for each twenty pounds of milk pro-
duced, to keep her in the best of con-
dition.
Animals deprived OF salt become
emaciated and of low vitality, finally
suffering a complete breakdown. Salt
should be provided regularly.
The best plan is to have box con-
tanning salt where the animals can get
to it whenever they 30 desire. Either
tine salt or rock salt can be used, ale
though we prefer the latter.

From these figures we see that it
would take the SIS cow about ten
years to pay for herself in butter; if
she was a middle-aged cow she would
never do it. On the other hand, the
SITS cow would have paid for herself
in butter in less than three years.
The buyer bought the SIS. COW.
Would he have done this if he had
