Midsummer Calls
For Cool Clothes

was neither Today the propaganda
against non-essentials, and the CONVEX
sion of them into active service for the
country have caused the scales to fall
from the eyes of thousands of women
as TO the expense of the costumery
they adopted.
We expect six more weeks of warm
weather, and therefore, we have no
absorbing interest in new October
clothes. We want to know what is to
be worn, and we are most interested
in what we hear is being shown in
Paris, but at this moment we are strug-
Cling with the proposition of enliven-
ing our wardrobe in such a manner
that 1t will keep US going until the
first frost.
AS the nation has gotten into the
habit of living in the country until
Thanksgiving, there is a growing ten
dency to keep ones August clothes in
active service by means of top coats
and wooden stockings. 1t must be adj
mitted that the present emergency
calls women into town nearly every
day. and they may not continue to stay
In the country as long as November,
but the majority will insist on wearing
their summer cOstumery as long as the
climate and convention permit.
And right here comes In the excellent
good taste of the present midsummer
costumes. Their very departure from
the sweater and the separate white
skirt permits them to serve at other
seasons.
This is the stringent motto that must
run the warp and wool of our lives
now: to buy that which can be worn
on as many days, at as many occa-
sions as economy dictates. In short,
we have accepted the European way Of
dressing for hot weather. 1t may not
appear cool on the surface, but inven-
ton, which must go hand in hand with
necessity, has shown women how to be
cool and clean in dark costumes, or in
combinations of dark and light clothes.
DoubIe-Duty Wardrobe.
There are many women who are
able to afford two separate wardrobes;
one for the gayeties of the country and
one for the daily trips to town but the
average woman, and often she is a
multi-millionaire, has arranged her
wardrobe so that 1t will serve for both
purposes from now until the first of
October.
She has taken up the French idea
of wearing gowns or suits of very thin,
checked material, and instead of an
ornamental blouse, she inserts waist
coat Of pongee or colored crepe de
chine.
She has found out the good service,
especially for afternoon wear, of knife
plated skirts of white crepe de chine
or thin serge, which she tops with a
velvet or satin jacket.
She realizes the comfort of Chinese
materials, as well as their durability.

KEEP FARM MACHINERY BUSY
Lazy Binder Works Only Forty Days
In Eleven Years-"Work-or-Fight"
Policy Applicable.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The work-or-fght policy should be
applied to farm machinery as well as
to men. Though machines cannot fight
they can be put to work on many occa-
sions instead of standing idle In the
barn lot. Most farm machines and I'M
plements are capable of doing much
more work than they usually do, and
the more they are used the less man
labor will be required on the farm.
Three men with a corn binder, one OPP
Grating the machine and two gathering
and shocking the bundles, will cut from
seven to ten acres a day, while four or
five acres would be fair days work
for the same three men cutting corn by
hand.
The average corn binder lasts about
eleven years, but during that time does
only about forty days actual work.
There is no doubt that 1t could render
several times this much service before
wearing out II there were more work
to do. There seems to be very little
relation between the amount of work
done annually by corn binder and
the years of service.
The bulletin refers to a survey con-
Quoted In New York state which show
ed that the more the corn binder could
be used each year the less the cost of
cutting the corn when the cost of using
the binder was taken into considera-
ton. Two hundred and thirty-three of
the 458 binders on which data were OBJ
tanned, cut 10 acres or less annually at
a cost of $9.7S per day used and $1.67
per acre. The remaining 225 cut
over 10 acres annually, averaging 321s
acres, at cost Of $3.24 per day of
service and 81 cents per acre. The orig
inal cost of one of these binders was
about $125. Thus If there is only one
or two days work for the binder to do
each year, the cost of cutting the corn
with II will be so great that its use will
not be advisable unless 1t Is impossible
to cut the corn by other methods with
out seriously neglecting other work. If
this is the case, the bulletin recon-
mends that two or three neighbors
each of whom has only a small crop,
combine in the purchae and operation
of a corn binder. The first investment
required of each and the machinery
cost per acre will then be greatly re-
duced. This plan should not only ap-
ply to corn binders, but to other la
bor-sav1ng machinery.

VALUE OF INSECTICIDE ACT

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Both the farmer and the manufac-
turer have been benefited by the en-
forcement of the insectlcide act of
1910.
Farmers have been supplied with In
secticides and fungicides that will do
what is claimed for them; and have
been saved money by prevention Of
the sale of worthless, low grade, and
short-weight preparations, and by pre-
vention Of crop or livestock losses
through use of worthless insecticides
or fungicides.
The legitimate manufacturer has
been protected against the illegitlmate
manufacturer; confidence In insecti-
cldes and fungicides has been created
among farmers and stock raisers, and
sales have increased; valuable infor-
nation regarding the manufacture and
efficacy of insecticides and fungicides
has been given to the manufacturer,
enabling him to prepare good prepare
lions and truthful labels.

"Once upon a time" said this wom-

1t was adopted without cavil. 1t was
accepted without comparison with the
fashions of any other country. And
yet, at this moment. 1t looks entirely
out of the picture"
There has been no revolution, de-
clares a prominent fashion writer.
Changes in summer apparel have been
In cities only. They are American
lied French fashions today. Even this
summer has seen a distinct change
from what has been.
The linen skirt, gored at the top,
slightly fiaring at the hem, and but
toned down the front, Is thing of the
past to great majority of women who

crowds. Any skirt is worn but linen
one.
Sweaters In Evidence.
Certain shops say that the sale of
sweaters for the autumn is small, but
they add that the spring sale was good.
We see sweaters in every shop, despite
the conservation of wool decree. We
see women knitting sweaters for them
selves and their children, and not for
the soldiers and sailors. We read that
colossal department shops have an un-
usual quantity of yarn and are willing
to sell 1t at moderate prices.
Yet, If one judges fashion by fash
ionable folk, the colored, knitted
sweater has had its day in silk or wool.
It is sometimes worn under Jackets,
on days in the open that need warmth,
when the affair is picnic, yachting
trip or an automobile tour. Otherwise
il hangs In the closets Of the homes Of
fashionable women. However, its lack
of fashion has not deprecated its mon
etary value, for yarn is an expensive
thing to buy and a most intricate and
difficult thing to obtain.
What We Wear In the Open.
The economical reasons for discard
ing the white linen skirt, the knitted
wooden sweater and the ornamental
white muslin blouse are based on ex-
pensive laundry and scarcity Of ma
terial, plus scarcity of labor.
Those large sectors OF. American so
ciety that considered this three-piece
costume the most reliable basis for
their summer wardrobes, imagined
their taste simple and inexpensive. 1t

Do not wait until planting time next
spring to select your seed potatoes. Do
not even wait until harvest time this
fall. Begin now by making a study of
the plants. This is the plan that
should be followed by potato growers
who want to have seed that will pro-
duce the highest yields. Potato grow
ers should have seed plat, which may
or may not be part of the main crop,
and from the best-growing, disease-re-
sistant plants In this plat, which pro-
duce high yields of marketable-sized
potatoes, select their seed for the fol-
lowing year. An area OF one-tenth or
One-fifteenth of the entire acreage will
usually provide sufficient seed for the
following seasons planting.
While it is an advantage to start the
seed plat with selected material the
work may be begun during the grow
Ing season with any good stock of
promising quality planted In suitable
soil and properly cared for. The best
portion of the field therefore should be
selected for the seed plat. 1t should
be well drained, frequently cultivated
and thoroughly sprayed.
Inspect Seed Plat.
Several times during the growing
season the seed plat should be inspect
ed. All weak, degenerate and diseased
hills and those showing varietal mix
lures should be pulled, so that only
the progeny of healthy hills of the
correct variety will remain at harvest

CREAM SEPARATOR IS HANDY
Many Of Our Farmers Are NegIectlno
Important Matter Of Thorough
Separation of Milk.

Approximately one-half of our farm
ers are still neglecting the important
matter Of thorough separation of the
milk which their herds produce. AS
a result, from 10 to % per cent of the
total production Of butterfat is not
made available to the consumer. The
use of the cream separator is worthy
of encouragement as an instrument
capable of increasing the quantity Of
food available for human consumption.

time. Plants showing stem rot either
at or below the surface of the soil,
plants developing any type of abnormal
rolling of the leaves, those with mot
tied or crinkled leaves, and any plants
that are stunted, weakened or that
make unthrifty growth, should be dis
carded.
If practicable il is best to dig the
seed plat by hand, care being taken to
eliminate all low-yielding hills and those
producing an undue proportion OF small
or unshapely tubers. In harvesting,
other injury, since the vitality of dam
aged tubers is reduced. Gather and
store the seed potatoes in Stat crates.
Place them as soon as possible after
harvesting In q cool reasonably moist
storage house provided with good ven-
tilation and maintained at a tempera-
ture of 30 to 40 degrees f.
Work Stock over Carefully.
Before the next planting time the
stock should be carefully worked over
to remove all badly cut or bruised tu-
bers and those showing serious scab or
black scurf and decay of any kind. Tu-
bers badly off type should also be dis
carded, as should any showing abnor-
NAL discOloration Of flesh, which can
be seen, of course, only at the time
of cutting. If scab or black scurf is
present in any degree, it is advisable
TO treat the seed by covering for 30
minutes in solution containing four
ounces of corrosive sublimate to 80
gallons of water.
