white hair and young faces, they
should never attempt clothes taken
from the bazaars of Delhi, the Assyri-

There is a happy medium and they

Feminine style to Continue.

The distinctly feminine note so much
in evidence in spring and summer
clothes promises to be strongly empha-
sized during the fall and winter sea-
sons. Garments on mannish lines are
rarely seen, and even the military note
is sounded but family in apparel for
women, except for such garments as
uniforms.

Color Of Hair and Face Should Re-

Style of Clothes.

The world does not often go in for
the kind of costumery that was worn
by Watteau's women or the dairy
maids of the Petit Trianon. Fashion,
for some reason, keeps to sterner and
more sedate rules, says a fashion crit
ic. Not that we ALLURE coquetry; our
women are full of it, even under the
ban of war. We are not averse to that
kind of seductiveness which is given
by the GENERALIZATION of clothes; we

Wooden Beads.

Wooden beads are much used for
trimming by the French designers.
They are put on in close rows along
the hem of an otherwise plain chiffon
evening gown, helping it droop and
cling to the figure in fascinating man

lower edge of a cape-like jacket or to
weight the flowing sleeves into the
shape desired.

many women have been restored to

this he must pay.
 But already he has received wages out of which he can have saved the necessary first instalIment on his place of 10 or Is Der cent. The balance with interest he can pay in 40 yearly installments, or earlier if he can. He should not be limited to choice of farms upon the one project on which he works. If the life in Arizona, let us say, is not to his liking he can nave the same opportunity after building the Arizona irrigated project to take up farm upon another gov ernInent enterprise in South Carolina where men have drained the old rice sTamps or in Wisconsin on @ tract of what once was swamp but has been converted into rolling prairie farms
 Four things are the essence of this program-that there shall be work ready for the men on their return that this work shall be for the mak- ing of America, that the money ex- pended shall be returned with inter- est to the government which ad- vances it, and that the land shall be plotted so as to be part of an or

does not attract as against the dis tant and alluring lands of the West, because it requires some systematic treatment.
 Within 50 miles of the city of Washington, both in the states of Maryland and Virginia, there are large bodies of lands which once were parts of great plantations that can be had for less than any lands within the same distance of most of the larger cities of the West. The mind of the country has been turned toward the development of the raw lands, the free unbroken lands, to the neglect of opportunities nearer the center of the country's markets. In almost every Southern state instanc ices can be cited where white men under the wise direction of the Department of Agriculture support their families and make an excellent living upon small farms of from 10 to 30 acres. Yet between Washington and New Orleans there are over 40,000,000 acres of unused lands.
 The New Farm Idea.
 No one, believe, can make a study
  vinced, as I have been, that this country can support a population of from three to four times that which we now have-if the people will give over their desire to congregate in industrial centers. The passion for the city is upon us. Ithas come from variety of cause.-the lack of so- ciety in the country; the distance be- tween farm homes, the remoteness from the post office and the news ! paper, the assumed superior status of the "city man." the desire for better school facilities for the children, and many more which have been the l theme of books without number seek | ing to re-establish in the heart the | longing for contact with the soil. But preachments of any kind will not off l set stern repellant facts. There is l but one way of dealing with this l problem, and that is to answer the i questions that are put by developing i now conditions.
 ! We must turn, as Europe has in her centuries Of experience, to the 1 farm village, the settlement of farm i CTS around a center which is their home, in which can be gathered most 1 of tho advantages Of the city-tFle i good school, the church, the moving i picture, the well outfitted store-and l these, with good roads. the rural cx- 1 press, the telephone, the automobile and the post office will make life on the farm thing Of far different meaning from the isolated life it has 1 been.
 Of land, therefore, there is an abundance, land owned by the gov ernment in the West and the South land owned by private individuals ir all the states, which is a burden tc 1 it's owners and which can be had in ] great blocks at a very small price It will not be for Congress to seek fol advantageous places in which to To. cate these men; the difficulty vii rather be in the choosing as between so many opportunities.

HOW TOCARE FOR HE RETURNING SOLDIER, STABILIZE LABOR AND START A MOVEMENT "BACK ID TIE LAND"
 BYE K JAN Eseneay ayofN
By FRANKLIN K. LANE, Secretary of the Interior

call to your attention the fret that all that I have urged is an exten- sion on a large scale, and somewhat department has beer doing for the past 16 years, through the activities of the Reclamation Service. And Congress has already taken the first step in the direction pointed out by appropriating $200,O0O for an ex- animation into the reclaimable land resources of the country, one half that sum to be expended for sur vey of possible irrigation projects and the other half for an examina- ton of those lands which need to be drained and of those huge tracts of lands which once were forests, but now are neither forest, pasture, nor farms, the logges-oY lands of north, east, west and south. As soon as this appropriation was made the country was divided into three zones and engineers were set at work gathering the data which Congress desired.
 The Lands.
 We are prepared to make report to Congress forthwith, giving a gen. eraI picture of the extent and nature of these lands and advising as to the practicability of their reclamation. In the large it may be said that of these three classes of land we have a full 200,000,00 acres which may be con- verted into farm" either by irriga- ton. drainage, or clearing. These lands in greater part have passed out of the hands of the government and are in private hands, though there are several of the largest bod ies of lands needing drainage which are in the hands of the states. On the government lands alone it woull appear now to be unquestionably the fact that we could give employment to every man who would need work, and that almost immediately.
 State Cooperation.
 1 But as this proposition has evolved I have found myself coming to the , belief that it was not necessary to 1 government lands; that, on the con 1 trary, it might fit in best with the
 sentiment of the country and to its
 greatest advantage if the plan were | made adaptable to all the states, sC 1 that each state out of it's unused ] lands might carve out farm settle ments whereon, if they so chose, the l soldiers stunning to their hom& states, could be located. By coop 1 eration between the states and the l Federal government this can easily l be effected. I have been surprised to discover how much land in the older states, such as Massachusetts
 and New York, for instance, there < l that is unused, which once was till. l ed and which now, with moderr methods of farm development an( with the advantage Of it's nearness tC l the great markets, can be agaiT <, profitably put to use. The com
 missioner of agriculture for Massa | chusetts has advised of land which put under intensive cultivation yielded last year more than $1,00t
 per acre net And there are man! l thousand acres of such land. II
 New York land by the tens of thous
 ands of acres has been deserted ant is advertised by the state, which vii i produce apples and other fruits O 1 fine quality, besides all the stapl

ganized community. A farm as a going concern to be a part of com munity that is going concern-this is the idea toward which we should work; and such settlements, a few of which already exist in Wisconsin, North Carolina, and elsewhere, should be the models for the future land developments of the country.
 How great will be the cost? As much as we wish to spend; as much as we need to spend.
 Less than many a strike has cost this country.
 Would it be unreasonable to ask for as much SIS we will spend this year for pensions to the veterans and, their dependents of wars that ended 20 and 50 years ago?
 Would it be unreasonable to ask that we spend in the next two years on these veterans of the great war as much as 1t cost us to conduct that war for single week? Would a people that gave out of hand, out of a noble sense of charity to quasi pub lie organizations. $500, 00O,0 ,000 for the entertainment and care of these boys

ent irrigation system. and that such tracts shall be developed under an appropriate. Iand-settlement plan. This we can do at once and meet | whatever labor problem may be inn mediate.
 As a second step I would urge an ] appropriation for one or more of the largest irrigation. schemes for which surveys are in an advanced state. Con currently it would seem to me wise to undertake the draining of the most promising projects-governme owned land preferred, but, if pri- vately owned, the land to be bought at an appraisement made by the i Farm Loan Board and subject to the i approval of the Department of Agri- culture as to fertility of soil and de- sirability of location.
 With such a national program un- der way there need be no solicitude as to caring for the returned soldier.
 Before he left France he could be
 preparing for his work. More than
 one-third. probably nearer one-half,
 1t is estimated, of the men who are
 in Europe have come from farms. They are not farm owners, many of them were farm hands, some of them tenant farmers. Those who thought of taking up this life as independent farmers under the most modern and approved system could be given an ] agricultural education while still in the foreign camps. Canada indeed 1 is already at this work. Then after 1 their return and when they have re-
 ceived the greetings of home, if the l old position is not open or they wish ] to turn to an independent life, they ] can have their chance.
 1 For each there can be 0 position at ] the current rate of wages. The ! energy and the talent which he has i been expending for an ideal Gnd SS0 Q month he can now use to make a i home for himself. There woufs be i laid before him number of projects ] which the government had under i taken in the different sections of the i country.
 , Let us assume no more than three, l one an irrigation scheme, another a i drainage project, a third the develop l ment of body of cut-over lands. The 1. one would need to have great dams ! constructed to impound and divert ] waters a hydro-electrtc plant, miles i of canal and tunnel, perhaps, thou l sands of acres to be celared and leV-
 eled, fenced and broken. This would
 mean years of work at good wages
 work in the open under housing con- i ditions that would seem palatiaI to | the soldier of the trench, and at the
 end a piece of land on which would
 be erected house and barn, farm
 home in a group of farm homes. For

hesitate to buy the bonds of this country for a like amount to provide peace work, home work, and homes for these same boys, who will ask the question, What is to be my chance? A loan! Not a gift this time. A loan on interest. Those who deal in money tell me that this can be done. But be the amout great or small, the plan can be made. to fit our needs-reise it as you please, by taxes or by a bond issue Ca mort gage on the very land that it re- claims)--is there a better way to in sure the future than to direct these strong-armed, big-chested soldier men into a battle against the wan ton wastefulness of nature?
 We have spent largely for this war and largely we mus, spend for many years to come. We are to econem- ize that we may meet our debts; this must be the national pollc-. But to stop growth is not economy.
