WAR STYLES PROVIDE
FOR GOOD MATERIALS

Paris. Sept. S,-lBy main -
War restrictions inyariable arouse
protests, but the one limiting wool
on material FOR women's dresses to
four and half metres labout five
yardsl has been accepted without a
murmur-eyen with alacrity. This
measure was readily accepted by the
dressmakers' syndicate when tho
government pointed out It's advisa-
billty,
The tendency OF fashions had been
towards even ampler proportions Of
skirts. Since the war skirts under
went a shortening process. The
question was whether the fashion
OF ample skirts should continue and
the quality OF the material deterlo-
rate. or whether a radical change OF
style he introduced. The dress
makers syndicate preferred the lat
ter alternative, explaining TO their
clients that II Is essential for the
prestige OF French fashion that no
concession be made to the quality OF
material for tailor-made clothes In
order to preserve the impeccablo
line which is so essential.
One OF the chief considerations,
so the leading Paris tailors declare,
is American custom. which would
fall on II II we're found that Paris
clothes were OF inferior material.
The restriction only applies to ma
terlals containing wool, so that for
evening gowns and indoor dresses, OF
non-woolen material. those who pre-
fer flowing lines and fun skirts will
be able to indulge their fancy as be-
fore.
A striking contrast to the severe
and simple tailor-made, which Will
prevail In outdoor places, win be the
exotic toilettes which several OF
the big firms are about to launch for
evening wear. some OF which are
direct copies OF Chinese models.

M'NARY WOULD TAX
WAR PROFITS HARD

Washington. Sept &C. Especially
Following the passage In the sem
ate OF the $4,000. 100000 war reve-
nue. bill. and while awaiting the
final action OF the conferees with
respect to the adjustment Of all diff
ferences in the measure as II passed
the two branches OF congress. SEN
ator Charles l.. McNary made a pub
lie statement in which he said:
II voted for the revenue bill upon
its final passage as the war cannot
be fought without money.
THE only objection I have to the
bill now in conference Is that II did
not bear down more heavily upon
the reapers OF large war profits.
For example, the Dupont Powder
Company made annually from 1918
to 1914 inclusive profits amounting
to $5,000.000, while in 1916 its
profits climbed to the stupendous
sum OF ss2,OOO,OOO. The United
State Steel corporation made in the
year preceding our entrance into the
war $4,000 900 and based upon
the first six months of the current
year 1t is estimated that its profits
for 1917 will rise to the unprece-
dented figure of $500, 900. 900. Many
other similar examples could be
cited though these are of the lar
ger class.

DISCIPLINE NEEDED


The events OF the last few days
have justified the high hopes OF
Russia entertained by those who pro-
fess to know II we'll. Most Ameri-
cans had already been convinced
that the heart OF Russia was sound.
Now we find that Russian leadership
is sounder than we supposed.
The Russian people stand firm on
their revolution. General Korni-
loff's ambitious attempt at counter
revolution has failed utterly. In
stead OF civil war. there is an as
tonishing unanimity throughout the
vast complex population. Instead
Of chaos, there is an attempt at or
der. The Russians have demonstrate
ed again the same wonderful capa-
city for self-control, the same pa
tient spirit of fraternal cooperation
that they showed when the car was
overthrown and they found them
selves free.
Differences of opinion, diver
gences Of policy. there are Of course
Men and factions may differ with
out flying at each others throats.
Petrograd, naturally the storm-cen-
ter Of the revolution, is nothing like
the seething Paris Of the French
revolution.
One thing those quiet, big-heart-
ed, idealistic Slavs lack. That is
discipline. It must come before
they realize their ideals. But al
ready we can see the beginnings OF
discipline. The reins Of control
have all been frightened. The army
Is being taught to obey its elected
executive Just as It formerly obeyed
the autocratic czar. Voluntary
obedience is replacing blind submls-
sion. Peasants, workmen and SOL
diers are slowly realizing that DEM
ocracy means organized self-control.
Russia has far to travel before II
attains political efficiency enough to
realize its dreams. But 1t is on Its
way. Already we have in that In
FAINT Hercules Of a democracy an ally
of whom we need not be ashamed.

.ARMOR VALUABvE
BUT NOT POPULAR

London, Sept. l.-(By maiD-
English. Canadian and Australian
still refuses to grid himself with
armor, although several inventors
have perfected shields capable of de-
flecting bullets. shrapnel and small
shell fragments. II Is the story over
again Of the tin hat which the SOL
diers first sneered at as bonnet
made for towards.
Secretly. thousands Of men want
body armor. protective visors for
their eyes and every other sort OF
safeguard that inventive ingenuity
can devise. A soldier Of unquestion-
ed bravery will admit confidentially
that the only reason he refused TO
buy the stun for himself is that he
would be ashamed to wear armor
while other fellows can't afford to
buy It.
Some officers OF great value to the
army have the courage to wear
shields. not to spare themselves suf-
fering, but to safeguard their SER
vices to the forces.
Armor has its faults. II is heavy
and expensive and its manufacture
in great quantities would divert the
energies OF a great number of skilled
workmen now making other war ma
terials. But the severest tests have
shown that many lives could be
saved and many hospital cases avert
ed by protective plates.
The case Of the tin hat showed
how gratefully the army takes to
every innovation OF practical value
in saving lives. The helmet by now
has prevented head wounds by the
thousand, many Of which would have
been fatal. For good measure the
curved brim has warded OF many
shoulder or body wounds by defect.
ing shrapnel pellets and shell frag'
ments. Dozens Of battered helmets
pierced by bullets and chunks of
metal, may be seen rusting in the
shell holes after an advance, but the
inventors never claimed the hat
would stop everything.
II the army council ever decides
to adopt the armor for the men
there is no question that the men
will wear it, though reluctantly al
first. DR.. c. w. Saleeby INVENTOR OF
the helmet, may again become the
Tommy's friend II the council takes
this step He recently submitted q
shrapnel-proof jacket which has
passed several tests.
Another inventor got around the
weight difficulty by making fibre
shield. This is something like a
wartime sea-passenger's lfe-belt,
stuffed with light flexible material.
A. machine gun bullet may pierce
the hide of the jacket and raise a
painful welt on the wearer's chest,
but tests show that the bullet gets
stuck in the fibre and does not go
through.
The designers recognize the i'm
portance of shielding the lower por-
tions of the body.
No inventor has yet been able to
make a mask or visor strong enough
to protect the face and eyes against
bullet at short range. The chain
visor of fine steel meshes, slightly
distended just before the eye-balls,
has been more satisfactory than
any Of the others. 1t will fend off
small she'll fragments and chunks
Of hand grenade, however, and these
missiles have caused many cases of
total blindness in three years of war.

SOURCE OF INCOME
FROM FARM POULTRY
Steadily Increasing Demand for
Fresh Eggs of Superior DUAL
ity at Good Prices.

Eggs for market should be the most
important source of income from the
farm flock, according to NJ. G. Kilpat-
rick of the Ohio College of Agricul-
ture. There is steadily increasing
demand for fresh eggs Of good quail
ity at profitable prices. In addition,
eggs are produced with less labor than
other poultry products and are more
conveniently marketed.
Poultry for market should be the
second source of income. Under pres
ent conditions, the larger part Of the
poultry meat produced on most farms
is by-product produced and sold
with little regard to the cost of pro-
duction. The poultryman should
plan his work so that while producing
eggs for market, he may obtain con-
siderable revenue from the sale of

fowls during September and October

red. Then from the midst of IL leaps
up a great fountain of bright liquid
fire and scatters in all directions, send

feet high, then another fountain rises,

begin to move, approaching the rim of
the crater, and dash against 1t like
waves of the ocean, and you hear
roar like the breakers on rocky
beach; then more red lava bolls up,
then more, then there is quiet for a
few seconds, then all breaks out again.
We spent the whole afternoon here at
the crater. and then stayed on into the
night. If it be terrible in the daytime,
1t Is doubly overwhelming at night,
when all you can see is the fiery EN-
broidery of the black floating mass,
then the outbreaks, the fountains of
fire and the great waves dashing on
the circle of rocks around the pit.

ing for the hotel and a number of us

lar outbreak of all, and called the rest
back to enjoy it. The biggest Fourth
of July fireworks that man ever saw

but II couldn't hold candle to this in
the great mass Of material involved.

even the pangs Of hunger were forgot

RAPE MAKES SOUND
ROUGHAGE FOR SWINE
Crop Seeded Early in April Should
Be Ready for Pasturage
Early in June.

To provide good, succulent pasture
for the swine, few acres should be
seeded to rape, according to j. S. Cof-
fey of the animal husbandry depart
ment, Ohio state university. Rape
seeded early in April should be ready
for pasture early in June, If the sea-
son is favorable and the soil fertile.
Ordinarily an acre of rape will furnish
enough pasture for two sows and 10
pigs during the summer and fall.
Dwarf Essex is regarded as the best
variety to plant and generally costs
about Is cents per pound. Ordinarily
the rape is sown by itself on a care
fully prepared seedbed at the rate Of
FIVE or six pounds per acre. 1t may be
broadcasted or drilled and some pre-
fer to sow it in rows 16 inches apart
thus making lanes for the swine to
walk in, so that the loss from tramping
Is lessened.

PLANT FRUIT TREES IN SPRING OR FALL

(By J.. G. WH1TTEN, Missouri College of
Agricuture)
Fruit trees may be set in the fall or
In early spring. One-year-old trees are
usually preferable, If well grown,
though In the case of apple, pear,
cherry and American plums, two-year-
old trees may be used If desired.
Fruit trees are usually planted In
check rows or squares, in this state, at
tile following distances apart In feet:
Apples, % by % or 35 by 80; pears,
peaches and cherries, 20 by 20; plums,
1914 by 161s.
Young trees should be set about the
same depth that they stood In the
nursery. The color and character Of
the bark shows how much of the tree
grew below ground. The holes should
be dug just deep and broad enough to
admit the roots in their natural spread
without bending them.
Trim the Roots.
The roots should be trimmed so as
to remove any broken or diseased
parts. If a ragged wound has been
left at the end of a large root in dig
ging, this part should be cut off so as
to make a smooth, clean cut.
The soil should be shaken in be-

case of peach trees, scut off all side
limbs close to the trunk and shorten
the main trunk. A peach or japanese
plum will produce new limbs from the
main stem. These sprout strong new
limbs so readily that they may be
trimmed to single whips.
On the other hand, cherry tree
should not have It's branches cut back.
The active buds of the cherry are near
the tips of the limbs. The main trunk
has only dormant buds which do not
