Whether women are really going TO
devote great deal OF time to farm
ing in earnest, or whether they are
simply going to cultivate the small
plot in the backyard to raise the vege@-
tables for the family supply, an over
all suit is the thing to get. =
The sketch shows suit Of very
practical overalls. This is the kind :
that is worn with any separate blouses
the top of the overalls being made IN a
Jumper effect. The boomers are
roomy and comfortable. They are
gathered at the lower edge and Sc
curely tucked under the tops Of the
high lace shoes, which are the correct
shoes to wear for gardening. No dirG
or twigs will get in aid make tine feet:
uncomfortable when the bloomers ara
arranged in this way with the shoes
laced up over them.
Some overals are made all in ons
with waist and sleeves sewed H.
forming a complete costume whicAa
eliminates the necessity OF. wearing:
a waist underneath This style is pre-
ferred by some women.
The overalls illustrated have BEEN
adopted by the National American
Woman Suffrage Association whose.
members use them in the agriculturaG
department.
Women in the home are also taking
to overalls for performing the rough
duties about the house. When used for
this purpose, they are usually made up
in the lighter materials such as per-
Gale, chambray and gingham.
Word OF Freckles With a Snn-Hat!,
While women are cultivating the
soil they surely do not want to ba;%
cultivating freckles as well, so the"
gardening outfit is not really coun-
p1ete without sun-hat or a sunbonneS~
to protect the head. An excellent type
of sun-hat with brim which may be-
rolled up or down is shown with the
overalls illustrated. This is just ass
essential to the gardener as the hoe.
rake or spade, not to mention the
important overalls. The overalls ana
hat are usually made of the same ma.
terial, and one of the most practical
material to use is khaki or heavy
kahaki-colored materials. This color
is the best to use for the obvious rea-
son that it does not show the dirt as
much as any other. Women's overallss
are also made up in blue jeans thai
practical fabric which has always BEEN
used for mems oyeralB.

DO NOT BUY COAL AT
PRESENT PRICES
Greenwood Journal.

Greenwood Journal
The advice of Mr.. Harris, chair
man of the Federal Trade Commission
is not to buy coal at the present
prices. He declares that prices are
outrageously high. As this is OF vital
interest to Greenwood people we are
quotingin full what he has to say
about the coal situation:
There is absolutely no danger
from a shortage of coal in the coun-
try: coal is plentiful, and there is nc
excuse for the present prices, which
are outrageously high
Such was the statement Tuesday
morning of w. J. Harris, chairman OF
the federal trade commission, Who Il
in Atlanta staying at the Ansley ho'
tel.
Mr.. Harris said that he talked
with President Wilson before leaving
Washington and that the presiden,
expressed himself in regard to- the
coal situation, saying that he was
very much opposed to the holding
up" policies of some of the coal op
orators and retail dealers.
THE trouble has BEEN" said Mr.
Harris, 'that the coal operators
couldn't get cars. The operators ar
fighting the retail men AID the re
tail men are fighting the consumers
Congress will give President Viii
son the right to direct the movemen
of coal cars, and this will relieve tn
situation. There is plenty OF coal Il
be had.
"The real truth of the matter" con
tinued Mr.. Harris, "is the fact ths.
the coal, mine owners and operator
are making efforts to gouge the peo
pie. My advice to people is: Don
buy coal at the present prices"

things possible to make the vast crowd
that is expected to be present, for
get about the war and the condition
of the crops and their thousand and
one other troubles for the space OF
ore day. With that idea in view
they have gone out of the State and
sent toWashington for national cele-
brities to come to the insignificant

It is worth something to be one OF
the first of the American troops TO
land in France in this war and It Will
be something to the soldiers pos
terity. You may well imagine that
there is rejoicing in France, where
the man power has been so nearly
exhausted, to know that there is a
steady stream of fresh men coming
for the redemption of the land ana
that there is unlimited money and
power and ability to feed and care
for the men sent in the great country
that has started the movement. 1t IS
time to be happy in France.

NATIONAL FORESTS TO SUPPLY
WOOD FOB FUEL NEXT WINTER;

possible coal shortage in the west
next winter, more extensive use OF
f,,el wood from the National Forests
is urged by the Governments fores-
tiers. who are advising both ranchers
ard town dwellers to be forehandeo
in making arrangements for the sup
ply OF their fuel leeds.
The supervisors fthe 15S Nation
al Forests will be instructed to a1ord
all possible f.cilities to local resi-
dents wishing to obtain cordWood'
which settlers may obtain free for
their home use and which is sold at
low rates to persons cutting and
hauling in order to sell to others.
Since the material thus utilized IS
mainly dead timber, it's removal, 1t IS
explained, helps clear up the forest
and thus lessons the fire menace.
Timber which is insect-infected, or old
and deteriorating, or otherwise dam
aged or undesirable from the fores-
ters standpoint, as also disposed OF
for fuel purposes. The demand in the
next twelve months is expected to
break all records.
There is a possibility of a coal short
age because of the increased demand
for coal by industrial plants and the
lack of sufficient means of transpor-
tation. It is believed that it Will be
ouite feasible and economical for
many western communities to utilize
an increased quantity of National
Forest wood for the fuel next winter
When dead and down timber or 9TH
er timber which is deteriorating is
rot available for cordwood, the cut
ting of mature living trees will be
permitted to the extent necessary 10
meet demands.
While wood as a fuel is less econo-
micaI to handle and use than coal, II
is in many parts OF the West cheaper
even at normal price levels. Stoves
and furnaces, however, equipped to
burn coal usually require different
crates to permit OF the substitution
to advantage, and this is pointed out
as one reason why the householder
will do we'll to look ahead and decide
beforehand how he will keep warm
and what he will feed the kitchen
stove next winter.
Where sawmills are operating in the
woods at points within hauling dis
tance of towns, there is chance 10
obtain slabs and other material that
ordinarily goes to waste. Since green
or wet wood is both poorer fuel and
heavier to transport and handle than
dry. mill waste as it comes from the
saw is relatively undesirable tor I'M
mediate use. For this reason, as well
as i'm order to be sure of supply
the Government foresters suggest that
g. good-sized woodpile in the back
yard or under cover before winter
sts in may be found thrifty prov1-
sion.
During the last fiscal year over 3o,-
900 permits for the free use OF Ma
tional Forest timber mainly in the
form of fuel wood were taken out By
local residents. The amount OF TIM
Der involved approximated 250.oOo
cords. Additional supplies OF cord
wood were obtained from the Forests
at nominal price by others who were
not entitled under the law to Ae
free use of timber.

AN ANALYSIS OF THE
TEXTBOOK ADOPTION

Columbia, June 25.-An analysis OF
the textbook adoption by the State
board of education shows the follow
ing:
Books displaced. ...............- -
New books adopted to take the
place of books displaced 25
cid books readopted ........... 81
New books added Ito meet the
requirements of the course OF

It was remarked today by one who
has studied the list closely that dur
ing the next FIVE years the back OF
many a child will be bent, as though
with the weight Of years, in carrying
to school. the numerous text books
which it will be supposed to master.
The percentage. of changes was S4.S.
cut of a possible so per cent allowed
by the law. More new books were
added sto meet the requirements o.
the course of study" than were In
eluded in the original list which was
before the board for change or re-
adoption.
The books displaced" and "old
books readopted" represent the list
Of text books adopted by the board

ssThe board made sweeping ano
wholesale changes he said. The
progress of knowledge, science, peaa-
soolv and text hook manufactured with
in Eve years is never enough to JUSTIFY
so many changes. Books are tools
