INSIST ON FREQUENT CHANGE
Winter Asserts Women Are to Blame
for the Variations Of Styles
In Clothes.

Women want something new to wear
every few months. The absolute
truth Of this statement is what puts
the world Of women against reformers,
1t is easy to read and write reams of
theories as to why women should not
indulge In the caprice of new
clothes; and, with delightful ingenious
ness, these dress reformers put the
blame on the Style-makers and shops,
ignoring the fundamental truth that
the blame should be placed on the
women.
Those who are sincere and those
who are insincere but want to be
heard crying aloud in the market
places, do not 60 far enough into the
clothes question when pleading for
dress reform.
What normal woman would want to
be robbed of her privilege Of seeing
new clothes and buying them when
ever 1t Is possible? What healthy
minded woman would want to go
through life wearing the same gown,
cut on the same lines and preserved,
or copied, from season to season?
Mary Garden, the opera singer, an
swered this whole question once in an
interview ON tile deck of a steamer
when she was sailing for Paris. II
was at the height Of the great hubbub
concerning the question of American
clothes only.
The reporter called up from the
gangplank. when, in your opinion,
will American women wear American
clothes only and show their patriot
ism?'

over the rail. "They can't protest
against an American shroud. "-Ex-

GOOD
ROADS
FOR PROMOTING GOOD ROADS
Suggestion Made by Chairman Diehl
for Great National Congress to
Be Held in Washington.

"Unquestionably The time has ar
rived for a great national road con-
gress to be held once a year in the
national capital under federal govern
ment direction" asserts George G.
Diehl, chairman of the American Au-
tomobile association good roads board.
''This gathering In Washington
would be under the auspices Of the
United States office of public roads
and rural engineering of the depart
ment of agriculture" continues Mr..
Diehl, "and the event could be made
most comprehensive in its scope; there
could be complete exhibit of road
machinery and road materials; there
could be sample construction of vari-
Gus kinds Of highways; road schools
could be conducted for state, county
and town engineers, and various tech
nical phases of the work could be set
forth by trained experts who would
gladly attend such a great good-roads
event.
"Then there would come the interre-
lated phases Of road travel, and road
transportation. Undoubtedly the de-
partment of the interior, because of it's
national parks, would set forth the
scenic attractions which are under
government supervision. Various states
would be given opportunity Of adver-
tidng their attractions.
"The good-roads board believes in
state highway conventions which are
generally called for specific purpose
in the endeavor to concentrate the eff
forts of road enthusiasts for definite
ends. These state meetings are of In
calculable value, for the state Is the
political subdivision which must carry
on by far the greatest burden of future
road construction and maintenance.
with the vast amount of funds be-
ing expended throughout the country,
the government Of the highway depart
ments is becoming largely question
Of scientific management, and it is be-
lieved that If the county were the
smallest unit of administration greater
efficiency would result. The numerous
state good-roads meetings converged
into great national congress once
year, held in the national capital, it
is believed would be the best way of
handling the changed highway situa-
ton, and the government could proper

ly assume the obligation resulting
from the management of this great ma
tional event.
"The time has arrived when high
way conventions should have more of
an official character. There should be
good-roads meeting in every town
ship in the United States at least once
year, held under the charge of the
chief highway official of the township.
There should be at least one county
meeting held every year in each coun-
ty, under the charge Of the county en-
gineer or the chief highway official.
There should be one state meeting in
each state each year, under the
charge Of the state highway commits
sion. Then the local automobile clubs,
the good roads associations and others
could cooperate in these conventions
as their interest and location war
ranted. The township, county and
state meetings should be held before
the national meeting, so that at each
of the smaller gatherings delegates
could be named to go to the national
convention, which in reality would be
great good roads school, lasting for
one week or two weeks, in the city
of Washington, under the charge Of
the most important highway official
of the country, namely, the federal
authority in charge Of governmental
expenditure"

Most Profitable "Ad.n

Do you know what was the largest
harvest ever reaped from an adver-
tisement?
1t was the settlement In Pennsylva-
mia of 100000 German colonIsts.
We know that at Germantown, this
city, was made the first German settle
ment in America. We also know that
in fifty years double that many thou
sand Germans came to William Penn's
colony.
Furthermore, history tells us that
wars and religious prosecutions in
Germany caused this then unparalleled
exodus Of men and women.
But what brought them to Pennsyl-
vania and so made of this the German
commonwealth? An advertisement

Record of Eighteen Ohio Farm FIocks.
Two years ago the Ohio experiment
station made study of the profits in
farm poultry. Records of IS typical
farm focks were carefully kept.
These tlocks ranged in number from
SO to $40, some were purebreds; others
were mongrels. They were kept, fed
and tended just as the farmer had been
caring for them before the experiment
station asked him to keep q record.
Here are the results Of the investiga-
ton. For the sake Of comparison, we
have figured the profit from each flock
on the basis of 100 hens in a flock.
The best five focks yielded respect
lively $247, 1854, $153, $107 and $104
per hundred hens, while the poorest
five flocks yielded $67, $G6, $63, $62 and
SIS respectively. In no case was there
loss. The average profit per hundred
hens of the Is flocks was $97.
Poultry Profits.
One hundred hens are worth "a hun
dred dollars-just about the price of a
good dairy COW. Records Of the cow
testing association in Iowa show that
the average dairy COW makes a profit
of $33. Which would you rather do
milk two or three cows or take care Of
hundred hens?
Most of US fail to realize that pouI-
try is profitable-the wife pays the
grocery bills and every now and then
gets new piece of furniture or q new
dress with the Chicken money" But
probably not one farmer in q thousand
could tell just how much his chickens
are paying.
You probably have about hundred
hens-that'S the average size of the
farm flocks in the United States. How
much profit are they producing? ARA
they above the average or below? Arg
you getting S247 or SIS?
Produce Eggs When Price is High.
Sixty per cent of the eggs are pro-
duced in March, April and May. Then
the number drops gradually until only
one per cent is produced in November.
Production remains low during Janu-

What She Wanted.

Lydia Virginia was having her fifth
birthday prepared for her. Grandma
baked her birthday cake and made her
little sample cake. Lydia Virginia,
on breaking the sample apart, ex-
claimed: "Why, grandma, this is not

toned what kind she wanted, she IN
swered: "Why, l want my cake when
you cut a piece of it to look like a
spotted cat" Her grandma baked a
marble cake and when cut Lydia Vir-

Gather your eggs daily and keep

$15,0o0,000 Annual Loss.
Fertile eggs cause great loss-a
loss estimated by the government ex-
perts at $15,O0O0OO a year.
Two years ago the United States
government experts conducted an ex-
pertinent in Kansas to compare the
loss from fertile and infertile eggs.
How Experiment Was Conducted.
Ten thousand eggs, collected from
different farms, were used in the ex-
pertinent. Half were fertile and half
were infertile, and every egg was alb
solutely fresh when 1t entered the ex-
pertinent.
These eggs were kept on the farm
under ordinary farm conditions. Some
were stored in parlors, some in kitch-
ems, some in cellars and some in pan
tries. Some were put in nests, some
under laying hens and some under sit
ting hens. The same number Of fertile
and infertile eggs were always put I'M
der exactly the same conditions. In a
week the eggs were collected and sold
to the local grocery store where they
were candled. They were then shipped
to st. Louis, where they were again
candled.
Results Of Experiment.
While on the farm 20 per cent Of the
fertile eggs were spoiled for food, as
compared with only 16 per cent Of the
infertile ones. On the way to market
IA per cent of the fertile ones were
spoiled as compared with 8 per cent of
the infertile. This makes a total Of
43 per cent Of the fertile eggs unfit for
food as compared with only 25 per cent
of the infertile ones-a difference of 10
per cent. Notice that the greatest loss
in both fertile and infertile eggs is on.
the farm.
Fresh air is as good for hens as 1t
is for people. If you have an open
front or a partly open front poultry
house you need not worry about the
ventilation.
Fresh air does not hurt hens, but
drafts are injurious. The north, east
and west sides of the coop should be
tight to prevent drafts.

need not fear lice and poultry dis.

Foruet to PAY,

Patrons of Winchester barber shops

to pay their tonsorial bills. In many
cases it Is done Internationally.

His business for the evening included
lodge meeting, and, most important
Of all, catching train for his home.

chair. He babe them all good-by and
started to leave the shop. He had not
yet paid his bill.

POULTRY AND EGG CROP

Almost every farmer keeps some
poultry. The trouble is he doesn't
make the poultry keep him. Too many
of them are ROSTERS. A lot more are
old hens that lay but few eggs and
then want to set. Whenever the price
of eggs gets high, the old hens go on a
strike. They lay in the henhouse when
they please, but too much Of the time
prefer to lay their eggs out in the
fence corners. That means they are
not gathered until they are stale-and
In consequence a low price for the
eggs.
The average farmer considers poul-
try raising "side ISSUE" q job for
women and children-a sort of neces-
Sary nuisance in order to provide fresh
eggs and toothsome roast or fry. But
after all, this "side issue" branch of
the farming business, poultry, nets an
annual return in the United States of
over $600,000,000 or enough money to
build two Panama canals every year.
The Panama canal has been written in
to the pages of history as one of the
greatest achievements of modern times.
In its construction our greatest minds
in the science Of engineering, art and
medicine were employed. Yet the farm
hen with little or no care closes her
yearly account with balance of more
than half a billion dollars. Only a
very small portion Of this vast sum of
money is earned by the well-cared-for
commercial hen. Ninety per cent of it
goes to the credit of the much neglect
ed flocks ranging at liberty on the
farms of the country.
Hen Not Appreciated.
None Of us half appreciate the
money-earning possibilities Of the hen.
For example, the cotton growing states
during recent slump in the cotton
market due to the European war,
joined other cotton producing states in
an appeal to congress for federal aid
to tide them over the financial diff
Guilty. The appeal was for $150,000,00O
to be distributed in the South through
the medium of the federal reserve
banks. If these one-crop states had
reckoned with the farm hen they
would have saved themselves the hu-
utilization of asking Uncle Sam for help.
