 The Department of Justice has ta ken charge of the evidence brought in Washington by Nieman, and al ready has traced the disloyal arti cles to a common source, it is stated It is likely that arrests will be made shortly if it is found that the pres ent laws will reach far enough to cover the offenses.
 The vagueness of the actual charge that can be placed against the plot ters at this time has caused govern ment agents much concern. but it is believed that sufficient evidence can be obtained to get convictions OF conspiracy charges. In the event of these charges failing, Congress will be asked to lend a hand to for ever smash German intrigue in the United States.

Important Legislation May Be Passed Soon by Congress to Crush
 Plots.
SENATOR BUSTING BUSY
Actual Charges Are to Be Placed Against Certain German
 Editors.

WASHINGTON, July D.. - Follow ing close on the heels of the rccen, exposure of evidences of further Ger man machinations in this country President Wilson, Attorney-General Gregory and members of Cons ress have been searching for some more direct machinery of the law to get at the plotters than the present statutes afforded.
 As result, it is probable that some legislation will be offered with in the next week or two.
 Senator Paul M. Musting, of Wis consln is one of the leaders in the movement to crush out the German plots in the United States.
 It was Senator Husting who took l.. w. Nieman. the Milwaukee edi- tor, to the White House, that he might lay before the President in person evidence he had gathered showing great conspiracy to pro- mote the cause of Germany and ham, per and embarrass the United states through the columns of var. lous newspapers and journals pub lished throughout the nation.
 Criticism and DisloyaIty
 Any editorial or other matter Tn newspaper or periodical at this tlme which tends to criticise or ham per the government is disloyalty," said Senator Husting, "and disloyal. ty at this time is treason and should be punished as such. I understand that much of the propaganda work IS carried on in such an indirect way that the Federal agents find it hard to get the absolute evidence needed in our courts.
 Il am in favor of dealing quickly and sternly with such offenders, and if it Is found that the present laws are inadequate, l will introduce any legislation that will place in the hands of the government the weap- on it needs to fight this insidious foe"
 Senator HustIng declared the latest publicity campaign of German agents bears all the earmarks of an under ground news service, which supplies newspapers and periodicals in all parts of the country with pro-Ger- man articles and matter criticising the President and government for its work in behalf of the Allies.
 This charge is borne out. it is stated. by the simultaneous appear

FOR WORKERS WITH NEEDLE
Most Effective Way Of Attaching Lace
to Edge Of Ceneerpiece-Use for
Old Yokes and Sleeves.

To attach lace to the edge Of cen
terpiece, roll lace very closely, keeping
edge to be sewed on very even. Have
a pan OF boiling water ready, and dip
edge to be sewed on in this water two
or three times, being careful not to
wet all the lace. Squeeze the water
out as dry as possible, then lay away
to dry In the roll for while.
Carefully unroll 1t on the top of a
fiat surface letting 1t unroll in circle,
and then let 1t dry thoroughly. BE
careful not to stretch the edge to be
whipped on, and you will find the lace
will have circular edge. Whip on fiat
without having to pull or gather 1t.
Cut the Jokes and sleeves from old
nlghtgowns and make bodies into pro-
tectors for your suits and dresses by
sewing the tops together, leaving q
small hole for the coat-hanger hook.
Cotton dress skirts could be used In
the same way.
When the little cloth center or inner
side of buttons has either pulled out,

healthy and vigorous, 1t put them in
the best condition to make e ID gains
from their grain feed.
1t pays to feed grain on pasture, for
pasture alone will do little more than
keep up pigs weight. A light to
medium grain ration is usually most
profitable. About two or three pounds
of grain day Is good ration for
shoats weighing eighty to one hundred
pounds. If you have scales, weigh
your pigs occasionally and feed about
three pounds of grain daily for each
100 pounds live weight Of hogs.
Good rations for summer feeding are
easily obtained. On clover, alfalfe or
rape pasture, feed corn and a little
skim milk. On blue grass or timothy
pasture feed three pounds of skim
milk to each two pounds of corn.
More milk would do no harm. If
skim milk is not ut hand. it will pay
to feed oil meal or tankage with the
corn, where blue grass or timothy pas
ture Is used about one part tankage
to eleven parts corn or one part oil
meal to seven parts corn.

DRESSMAkERS NOT TO BLAME
Patrons Demand the Best France Has
to Offer, and They Were Forced
to Buy-Expensive Material
Used on All Costumes
Much Velvet.

New York.-There has been host
ing this autumn. There are many
chastened and saddened souls among
those who sell feminine apparel. Some
thing happened-nobody yet knows
quite what Ii was-but women did not
buy as they should have during the
three autumn months. In this city, for
instance, where one expects the larg-
est amount Of money to be spent on
clothes, the buying was held back for
so long that numbers of high-class
dressmakers and shops sent out addi-
tional announcements after the first
one and devised several kinds Of
shows to bring the public.
The delay in buying clothes was
laid to infantile paralysis and the
election, but, possibly, If the truth
were acknowledged, 1t would be due
to the tremendous prices asked for
French gowns.
1t is true that prosperity was ram
pant and wages high, but the cost of
living was greater than ever before
in the history of this country, and 1t
was not the psychological moment for
dressmakers to ask enormous prices
for apparel.
Forced to Pay High Prices.
1t is true, they have their own trou-
bles; the American women demand
styles that have originated In France,
and the dressmakers who went to
Paris In August for inspiration and
for French models were asked prices
that Marie Antoinette and Catherine
de Medici would have refused to pay.
They felt compelled to pay them, how
ever, and when they came back to this
country they tried to get the original
price plus the duty.
Evidently, enough American women
rebelled to throw the dressmaklng
world into a state of turmoil and anxi-
ETY., and we have arrived ut December
outlay of costumery.
Even counting the struggles of those
who are trying to do their best without
spending large amounts of money, 1t Is
not winter of economy. Materials
are splendid, evening gowns are es-
pccially gorgeous and women in gen
eral have taken on an oriental sumptu-

Change In Demand.
Up until now, women have gone

they happened to possess, concentrate
Ing their attention and finances on
the getting together of street clothes.
In doing this, the manufacturers have
