Farmers May Raise Price
of Milk to Retailers

Up will go the retail price of milk
if the dairymeR of Dauphin and
Cumberland counties carry out the
plans which are to be acted upon
next Thursday night when they meet
in the Franklin building at Mechan-
icsburg. Two hundred members of
the Dairymen's League have Just
about decided that they must order
an increase in the wholesale price of
milk, and final action is to be taken
at this approaching meeting.
The result will in all probability
be that the retail price per quart,
now fixed at 10 cents. will be ad-
vanced.
High cost of dairy food is the rea-
son given by the wholesale dealers
for this necessity. The dairymen say
that the present price of six cents n
quart which the retailer now pays is
not enough to reimburse the farmer
even for feed, not to speak of time
and labor.

HERE IS new 'NEEDLECRAFT'
But the Needles That Are Employed
Are Those That Are Obtained Fpm
tho Pine Trees.

It's really a needlecraft because you
use needles, but not the fine, shining
steel needles of embroidery or the bone
or amber Of knitting and crochet, but
the long, green needles of the pine
trees, the longer the better.
One Is reminded Of Indian basketry
as one binds the sweetsmelling needles
gathered from under pine trees into
pliable ropes of many uses. As the
needles vary in length, the binding
must be a continuous process. The
thickness Of the rope decided upon,
the needles are laid In a bunch until
the correct rope thickness is reached,
then they are tied with q bright cord
or strand Of raffia, which winds round
and round, and as one needle ends
another is added. The rope may be
shaped into a basket or mat as the
winding goes on, and the attractive
trinket further elaborated with en-
broiderings of raffia after the whole is
finished. The continuous rows of rope
are held together either by sewing
them with the cord or raffia run
through a long-eyed needle or as each
row is wrapped it can include the row
just preceding.

WAS MOST TALKED-CF GIFT
Duster Box, Prepared at Total Cost
Of rs Cents, Center of Attraction
at "Linen" Shower.

The "linen" shower for the engaged
girl struck one Of her friends at a
time when her pocketbook was, oh,
so very thin. She would have liked
dearly to have brought set of in
1tialed towels or really pretty rum
ner, but 1t was out Of the question.
After all, linen showers are more or
less elastic things; so she finally de-
cided to buy eight yards of cheesecloth
at 5 cents a yard. She cut this into
two-yard strips and folded each into
yard square of double thickness.
Then she blanket-stitched each with
different colored cotton to hold the
edges together. Incidentally, she
knew the color scheme of the engaged
girls new home and so there was
pink edge for one bedroom, a laven-
der for another, a blue for the dining
room and a yellow for the living room,
though nobody would say word if the
dusters-yes, that's what they were
If the busters got mixed.
Then she painted up q nice fiat tin
box with two coats of black enamel
and added cute little busting lady
cut from a magazine ad to the lid.
The busters went into the box with
small bottle Of furniture oil, the
kind used for mops. This was to make
the busters dustless, and a note went
with them to tell the engaged girl all
about it.
The buster box was the most-talked
of gift of the shower, and the whole
thing only cost IS cents because the
clever girl had the tin box and the
bits Of colored cotton.
