A SLICE OF BREAD

Washington, d. CA single slice
of bread seems an unimportant thing.
In many households one or more
slices of bread daily are thrown away
times stale quarter-or half-loaves
are thrown out.
Yet one good sized slice of bread
such as a child likes to cut
weighs an ounce. 1t contains almost
three-fourths of an ounce of flour.
If every one of the country's co.
900, 900 homes wastes on the aver
age only one such slice of bread
day, the country is throwing away
daily over IA 1000, 900 ounces of flour
over $4,000 pounds. or enough
flour for over a million one-pound
lOayes a day. For a full year at this
rate there would be waste Of over
319, 900, 900 pounds of flour $780,
900 barrels OF flour-enough to
make 365, 900, 900 loaves.
AS it takes y bushels of wheat to
make a barrel of ordinary flour. this
waste would represent the flour from
over 10000 bushels of wheat.
Fourteen and nine-tenths bushels
of wheat on the average are raised
per acre. 1t would take the fruit of
some 100000 acres just to provide a
single slice of bread to be wasted
daily in every home.
To produce this much flour calls
for an army of farmers, railway men,
flour-mill people. To get the flour
to the consumer calls for many
freight cars and the use of many tons
OF coal
But, someone says, full slice of
bread is not wasted in every home.
Very we'll, make il daily slice for
every four or every 10 or every 80
homes-make it weekly or monthly
slice in every home-or make the
wasted slice thinner. The waste of
flour involved is still appalling-al-
together too great to be tolerated
when wheat is scarce.
Amy waste of bread is inexcusable
when there are so many ways OF
using stale bread to cook delicious
dishes.
The L. s. Department of Agricul-
ture, Washington, d. c., or your state
agricultural college will tell you how
to use stale bread in many ways.

PATRIOTISM AND CLOTHES
The Red, White and Blue in Evidence
in Many Novel Acoessories-
Blue Foulard Combined with
White Organdy

The patriotic spirit of flag-decked
New York begins to make itself felt
in many of the small accessories that
make a womans costume, and often
in the costume itself With flags to
the right and flags to the left, it is
not to be wondered at that the spirit
of the times is being reflected in our
clothes.
The red, white and blue colors are
in evidence everywhere. New vests
and collars of white silk or satin are
edged with narrow red, white and
blue ribbon, or rows of red and blue
ribbon are stitched around the edges
of white collars. The vests are the
very latest addition to coats, and are
so popular that even blouses are be-
ing made in vest effect now.

them are attached only at the back
OF a coat or dress. While being very
smart, these capes have a practical
value in that they give extra warmth.
In very smart dress which COM
bined dark blue satin and serge, a
cape of serge was attached at the
shoulders. The lining of apricot COL
ored silk formed an effective back
ground for the dark dress.
Much of this satin and serge COM
bination is being used again this
spring, and frocks of this kind are
especially practical for shopping and
street wear. With one of the fur
capes no other wrap is necessary at
this time of the year.
The linen frock for summer means
as much as the satin-and-serge frock
does for spring. A tailored coat dress
of white linen buttoned down the
front and frightened by a colored
linen collar. belt and large pockets
of the same. is seen in the sketch.
Stitching is the tailored trimming
used to accentuate the distinctive
lines of this model.

latest novelties seen. showing the ex-
tent to which patriotism may be
taken. There are also small silk
handkerchiefs edged with little flags,
and parasols edged with ribbon bear
mig the stars and stripes. Even a
parasol of red, white and blue bunt-
ing has been devised, with the colors
used alternately in each section.
Costumes consisting of red or blue
wool jersey MILDLY blouses are worn
with skirts OF white wash satin or
sports silk. The blouses are decor
ated with embroidered emblems on
the sleeves, on the ends or collars or
in front With the blue blouses are
worn red ties, and with the red
blouses. blue ties.
Foulard Combined with Organdy or
Georgette
Every smartly-dressed woman re-
allies that if she is to be up to date
she must have a dress of foulard in
her wardrobe this summer Blue
foulard with large white polka dots
| is the kind one sees most of, but
sometimes the order is reversed and
blue dots standing out on white
| background appear. They are just
as smart and even a little newer than
| the white dots on the blue.
Foulard is often combined with
| GeOrgette or organdy. In the sketch
it is combined with white Georgette,
white is used for the soft, gathered
vest and collar, of very modish bo-
lero dress of navy blue dotted fou-
lard. The pretty bOlero style has
come back to us. and this is one of
the many attractive models in which
| it is seen. Some of the new summer
suits have short bolero coats trimmed
around the edge with some form of
embroidery or stitching. A very
smart model was made of blue twill
and foulard.
Foulard is put TO other uses be-
sides the fashioning of dresses. 1t
makes very effective trimming on
suits; for instance, on collars, cuffs
and pockets. White dotted blue fou-
lard combines we'll with navy or
sand colored serge or twill.
Speaking of the combinations Of
materials, one of the very newest eff
! fects is that of using organdy and net
together. And speaking of organdy
it is to be very popular this summer
| for entire dresses and also for trim
ming white net summer frock
worn over a pink organdy slip and
trimmed with bands of pale pink or
CANDY on the skirt was recently
seen. A very cool and refreshing
frock for summer It looked.
Silk Braid a Fashionable Trimming
The use of flat woven silk braid as
trimming is becoming more and
more favorable. Braid about half
an inch in width IS applied on coats
and skirts in straight rows one above
the other and at even distances
apart. Sometimes the braid covers
an entire coat, sleeves and all.
Black braid on navy blue and
dark blue on tan are the eombina-
tions most frequently seen. To ac-

FARMING OPPORTUNITIES

Doubtless there are some people
in this state who would like to farm
II they knew of a good opportunity.
Any state land suitable for farm
ing that is not now under lease can
be used for crop production without
rental or any other cost. Anyone de-
string to use such land should i'm
mediately write to Clarke V. Saw
idge, state land commissioner, at
Olympia, and get authority from him
to farm the land, whether it be acre
age or town lots belonging to the
state. Application for the use of city
lots must be endorsed either by the
mayor or the president of the COM
mercial club; those for outside tracts
by at least one member of the board
OF county commissioners. Applica-
tons will receive prompt attention
In the Yakima valley several
thousand acres of irrigable land can
be put under cultivation if men and
money can be secured to put it into
crops. Two thousand acres come
under the Indian reservation canals
and a considerable acreage of vacant
land is available under the Sunny
side and Tieton canals. Anyone de-
string to farm the Indian lands
should com municate with Don NJ.
Carr, Indian agent, Wapato. Any
one wishing to farm lands under the
government projects should apply to
K. X. Tiffany, project manager. U.
S. Reclamation Service, North Yak
ina, Wash.
In Okanogan county there are two
irrigation projects where lands can
be obtained under very liberal con-
ditions. The Whitestoue Irrigation
& Power company offers the free use
of all vacant land under its project
and agrees to furnish free water for
the irrigation of the same. Compe-
tent supervision of farming under
this project is guaranteed by Marvin
Chase of LOOMS, Wash, the engin-
eer and manager of the project, who
is also a very practical farmer him
self These lands are good for corn,
beans, root crops, grain, etc, and by
irrigation they can be planted any
time in May.
Several hundred acres suitable for
crop production this year can be Sc
cured by anyone who will furnish
the labor, and finance that labor
during this season. This donation
OF land and water by Mr.. Chase gives
a most advantageous opportunity to
anyone with even very limited
means.
The West Okanogan project. hay-
ing about 1000 acres of unused land
under irrigation, offers the use of
its unsold lands, of which about 1000
acres are now available with water,
upon payment of water maintenance
cost and taxes. These charges are
guaranteed to not exceed SO per
acre. The owners of the project are
willing to finance practical farmers
who own their teams, by advancing
money for ranch improvem ents,
seed, and extra labor cost. Any
farmers interested in this kind of a
proposition should write TO Andrew
Kennedy, Colman Bldg. Seattle,
Wash. These lands lie north of Lake
Chelan.
This information regarding avail
able lands, the use of which is prac-
tically donated at this time, is given
out in the hope that they may be put
to immediate use.

PEACE TALK SHAKES.
new YORK MARKET
Rise in General Motors Causes
Meeting of Governors.
CBy the International News serviee.)

CBy the International News serviee)
New York. Aug. 14.-Peace talk
disturbed Wall Street again today
and this time there was something
definite about Il. The Pope's propo-
sition must at least receive respect
full attention from all parties. This
will mean discussion of peace at
least. 1t is bound to disturb the
market in some stock issues. 1t
Is also bound TO help others. and
the rise in Mercantile Marine today
was one OF the first evidences OF
this feature of the situation.
General Motors was the star per-
former today. Its opening price of
51-2 points above the close brought
governors OF the exchange into an
unofficial meeting. They quickly
verified the statement made in this
column of the cause OF the advance.
Notice was sent out Immediately
to the offending brokers to the ef-
feet that they must not charge un-
reasonable premiums on the stock
and that they must lend 1t freely;
This made the excitement subside.
In the marines 1t is becoming evil
dent that something more than spe-
culative buying Is on going on.
Action OF Z. S. Steel was comfort
Ing, 1t yielded so slightly. The big
corporation has taken care since
the beinning OF the war to make its
extensions only along lines that will
be useful when peace Is declared.
