No Farm Product Show This Year.

meeting was held in Westminster
Saturday, night to consider holding
county farm products show about the
tenth of December. Only a few Tar-
mers were present which indicated
that farmers as a whole were most
foo busy husking corn to take much
interest in anything at present
Those at the meeting were ANXIOUS
IN start such an annual eXhlDltlOn
and the mayor and the toWnS-people
present expressed themselves as WILL
ing to provide q place to hold the eA-
hibit and to do what they could To-
ward getting prizes. AS a result VI
the meeting the County Agricultural
Agent and the Home Demonstration
Agent we're instructed to investigate
the matter further and II 1t seemed
advisable to appoint committee W
get I'D the exhibit. AS a result OF
this investigation it was learfeI
that it was hardly probable that the
new armory, the logical and ldeai
Mace to hold such show, would De
completed in time and that Wnlle
some are in favor of starting such
fair even tho it is not much OF d
success the first year the majority o.
+ba farmers and business men teeI
that in view of the destructive nan
storm and backward season, the
shortage of farm labor, the great
number of things that have already
demanded our attention and money
and the fact that the new arAory can
NOT he used that it would be better
NOT to attempt to hold a county sno"
this year for because OF these InlHSo
Carroll county is hardly in po5ltlon
70 hold a creditGbie one.
So the matter is at an END lof lhlS
wear SO far as this county is concern
ed but il is hoped and believed thaI
the next five years will see the lar
mers of every county in the state
organized into county agricultural
societies composed Of the county milk
producers, fruit growers, crop I'M
movement, bee keepers, and poIl-
trymen's associations and that the
president of this general society &s
chairman of a committee with ne
presidents of the different societies
as members will see to 1t that thcre
are first community exhibits, then
county shows, and then the MARYLAND
Week exhibition in Baltimore. Such
an organized and definite plan or
exhibiting will Gerry home to every
one the advantages OF better SEED ana
methods and will help make farming
more interesting.

Make Repairs Now.

This is the time of year when the
housewife should take a survey of
the many small repairs about the
house which should be attended to
before winter "sets in" 1t might be
well to have a repair day when the
handy man takes his time and tools
and finishes these numerous odd jobs.
Perhaps one or two window panes
are out, a cupboard door sticks, or a
lock is out of order. The back steps
that are worn out (and have been
for some time) and are propped up
with rock or pile of bricks might be
repaired to lessen the danger of acct
dents. Little things "out of order"
are source of unnecessary worry to
the busy housewife and when repair
ed in "ship-shape" they mean much
in comfort and convenience.-Miriam

lege, Fort Collins, Colo.

USEFUL OVER KITCHEN SINK
inexpensive Medicine Cabinet Will Be
Found of Value in a Number
of Ways.

Get an inexpensive medicine cabi-
net and hang it over the sink. In 1t
keep securing powders, silver polish,
ammonia, brushes and the things nee
essary for DISTINGUISHING and cleaning
but which are unsightly. Every wom-
an likes to glance into handy mirror
also before she answers unexpected
rings of the bell, so the cabinet serves
two purposes.
A special economic device is to apply
a piece of rubber hose one and one
half inches long to both hot and cold
water faucets in the kitchen sink. This
prevents a chance bump against the
metal faucet breaking or chipping
dishes. 1t will save many a piece of
china from the unsightly and expen-
sive hicks which so often occur and
are so disliked by good housekeepers.

"May / speak to Constance Starr,
Mr.. Imes?" she asked. ut is very i'm
portant. This Is Prudence, her Sis
ter" And when Connie came to the
telephone, she cried: "Oh, you blessed
little child. why didn't you tell me?
VIII you forgive me, Connie? You're
dear, sweet, good little darling,
that's what you are"
"Oh, Prudencew That was all Con-
ME said, but something In her voice
made Prudence hang up the receiver
quickly, and cry BITTERLY
That noon Prudence pronounced
judgment on the sinners, but her eyes
twinkled, for Carol and Lark had
scolded each other roundly for giving
things away
Connie should have refused to obey
you" she said gently, holding Connie
in her arms. but she has been pun
ished more than enough. But you
twins In the first place, I right now
abolish the Skull and Crossbones for
ever and ever. And you cannot play
in the barn again for a month. And
you must go over to the Averys this
afternoon and tell them about it, and
pay for the apples. And you must
send all of your spending money for
the next month to that woman who is
gathering up things for the bad little
children in the reform school-that
will help you remember what happens
to boys and girls who get in tie habit
of taking things on the spur of the mo
mentl"
The twins accepted all of this gra-
ciously, except that which referred to
confessing their sin to their neighbors.
That did hurt The twins were so SUI
perior and admrablel They couldn't
bear to ruin their regulations. But
Prudence stood firm, in spite of their
weeping and wailing. And that after
noon two shame-faced sorry girls
crept meekly in at the Avery's door to
make their peace.
"But about the Skull and Crossbones,
it's mostly punishment for me, Prue,"
said Connie regretfully, ''for the twins
have been in 1t ever since we came to
Mount Mark, and never got in at all !
And l wanted them to call me Lady
Magdalena Featheringale." And Con-
ME sighed.

but you'll get it just the same or I

When the twins arrived home Fairy
was just cutting the candy she had
made. Its delicious" she said to
Prudence. "Here's a nice dishful for
you and the girls. Pitch in twins, and
help yourselves. It's very nice.'
The twins waved her haughtily
away. mo, thank you" they said.
"We couldn't eat that candy with rel
ish. We are unworthy"
Then they went upstairs, but not to
their own room at once. Instead they
slipped noiselessly into the front bed
room, and little later Carol came out
into the hall and stood listening at the
head of the stairs, as though on guard.
BE sure and leave quite a few
stitches in, Lark" she whispered once.
1--WE want it to hang together until
Babbie gets here"
That was all. Presently Lark
emerged. and their own door closed
behind them.
"It's a good thing father has to go
to the trustees meeting tonight, isn't
It'll" asked Carol. And Lark agreed,
absently. She was thinking of the oy-
sters.

olives of Veal.

This takes some pains, but 1t is well
worth while. You will need one or two
outlets which you should trim and cut
into pieces about two and one-half
inches wide by four inches long. Place
on each piece a strip of thin bacon and
tablespoonful of chopped mushrooms.
Season with pepper and salt and roll
up, tie and skewcr. Have ready fine
bread crumbs and a beaten egg and
dip each olive first in eggs and then In
the crumbs. Now do each one up In
buttered paper-oiled paper will an
swer-and bake them. Cut the string
when done and remove the skewer
They are especially tempting when
served with tomato sauce.

Now, will you twins run downtown
for the oysters?" asked Prudence
briskly.
"Who? Us?" demanded Lark, indig-
nantly and ungrammatically. do you
think we can carry home oysters for
this Babbling young prince? Not so !
Let Fairy go after the oysters"
"Oh, yes, twinnies, l think you'll go,
all right. Run along, and be quick"
For few seconds the twins gazed
at each other studiously. Neither
spoke. Without a word, they went
upstairs to prepare for their errand.
They whispered softly going through
the upper hall.
Twins You must hurryw This
was Prudence at the bottom of the
stairs. And the twins set off quite hur-
riedly. Their first call was at the
meat market.
"a pint of oysters" said Lark
briefly.
When he brought them to her, she
smelled them suspiciously. Then Carol
smelled.
slave you got any rotten onesY'
she demanded.

The twins sighed and hurried next
door to the grocer's.

This was quickly settled-and the
grave-faced twins betook themselves
to the corner drug store.
We've want something with q

soberly.
"What kind of smell?"

Vanity bags bob up or dangle in
the most unexpected places. They
swing from umbrella handles and
from fans-they are concealed in shop
ping and party bags, and are even sus-
pended from pretty carriers. But vanity
cases are frankly carried in the hand
and hold, in the most compact arrange
ment, all the aids needed in emer-
gency cases of beauty in distress. They
also accommodate small coins-in
case they are wanted.
In the illustration three cases made
of German silver are selected from an
array Of many different patterns.
There are perfectly plain cases with
polished surface and others with satin
finish, but, in the long run, the fancier
cases look better than the plain ones.

of hammered silver, show a disposition

Artificial Flowers.

Hortense is very fond of the present
artificial flower bud, which she says is
$50 Frenchy." Possibly never before
have artificial flowers had such a
vogue as they have just now, and a
small corsage flower is one of the best
means to giving color to dark street
frock or suit
There are punches of tiny flowers in
brilliant red that are very good. There
are bouquets consisting of a rosebud,
few forget-me-nots and sprig or
two of green that are good. Then there
are nasturtiums, poppies and many
other flowers in their own natural, rich
coloring.-Paris Correspondence.

Two cupfuls of brown sugar, one

cake of shaved chocolate dissolved in
one-half cupful of very hot black cot
feel, one level teaspoonful soda dds
solved in one-half cupful of thick sour
cream or milky two cupfuls of flour.
The sour milk makes the cake richer
and the coffee improves its flavor. If

can use white instead of brown sugar
