WAR ECONOMY IN
LEATHER WANTED
Simple Measures Recommend
ed for Preservation of
Shoes and Harness.

War demands Ieather-leather for
soldiers shoes, leather for harness,
leather for equipment of many
kinds. In this country there is no
such surplus that we can afford to
waste any of it; and it is wasting
leather not 10 care for and preserve
il properly. In the army and out
we all wear shoes. IL we manage
them rightly they will last longer.
we will not need so many new ones
and there will be more left for
others The following suggestions
from the leather and paper labora-
tory of the u. s. department of
agriculture can be utilized by every
one who walks.
Shoes should be oiled or creased
whenever the leather begins TO get
hard or dry. They should be brush
ed thoroughly and then all the dirt
and mud that remains washed off
with warm water. the excess water
being taken off with a dry cloth.
While the shoes are still wet and
warm apply the oil or grease with
a swab Of wool or flannel. II is best
TO have the oil or grease about as
warm as the hand can bear and IL
should be rubbed well into the leath-
er. preferably with the palm. If nee
