Coat-SmaII, Close Reefed Hat
Should Be Worn.

For travelling, especially on long
trip by motor, n suit like that in the
sketch would be an admirable selec-
tion. 1t may be developed in any one
of number of fabrics, such as jersey
cloth, gabardine, heavy serge and 9TH

ton khaki cloth, crash or linen Khaki
colored gabardine was chosen for the
suit as designed. 1t is decidedly mill
tary in cut and finish. 1t is made with
two coats, one the suit coat proper
shown on the figure, the other top
coat that is virtually full length. and
in cut and finish an exact replica of
the short suit coat.
The skirt, ankle length, buttons at
the side front, and the sleeves, as will
be noted. are finished with a row of
buttons from wrist to elbow. A small
close-reefed hat should be worn with a
suit of this type, and of course the ac-
companying blouse should be plain and
mannish. Washable satin and crepe
de chine are excellent selections for a
tailored blouse, as these materials
launder well and easily, and of course
do not rumple as quickly as linen OF
most of the cotton fabrics.

We are really getting little nearer
that much-talked-of state, the stand

1t will ever happen that our clothes
will be completely standardized, for
then we should lose our chief charm,
our individuality. 1t is quite notice
able, however, that the color chosen
as best for street wear, both for suits
and dresses, is navy blue.
Then the elimination of most of the
formal evening affairs has caused
evening dress In Its elaborate form to
be almost thing of the past. We
have thus far come to one chief color
for street wear and to one style, rath-

After all, the plan Of ones dressing
depends entirely upon the individual
needs, and in this case, as in many
other things during the war, we are
learning to eliminate everything that

SUPPLANTS LAUNDRY HAMPER
Chute Built In the House Is a Great
Convenience II Soiled Clothes
Are Promptly Sorted.

One way to get along without laun-
dry hamper is to have laundry chute
built In the house. This is chute ex-
tending from the second and perhaps
. the third floor OF house to the laun-
dry, with openings on each floor. The
clothes are put in the chute us soon
as they are soiled and they drop down
to the laundry.
A laundry chute is an admirable way
of solving the trouble of caring for
solled clothes, II 1t is properly cared
for. There should be big basket at
the bottom of the chute, into which
the clothes can fall. Every day some
one should go to the laundry and sort
the clothes sent through the chute.
Anything damp, like bath towels,
should be hung up and dried. Table
linen and clothes should be separated.
If laundry chute is managed in this
way Il is nothing but convenience to
be thankful for. However, If 1t becomes
choked with clothes and linen, which
drop from 1t into an untidy heap on
the laundry floor, there to mold and
mildew for a week, It Is nuisance.

WHAT IS WHAT IN DRESSES
Interesting Features Of Importance to
the Woman Who Wishes to Be
Stylishly Dressed.

There Is cause for rejoicing when
the gown showing long slender lines
establishes itself as the smart thing,
observes an authority. Frocks which
cut up the figure, no matter how hand
some the material they may be made
of, are not so becoming and really not
SO practical, as they are harder to ad--
just.
There is no doubt that the long
chemise-like dress has reached the
height of it's popularity. 1t is shown
In serge alone or combined with satin,
In georgette, heavily beaded or EN-
broidered in silk stitching, and in satin

Even when the skirt Is draped or

Waistlines are either normal or
slightly below and the sash is seen on
many of the imported models tied at
the back to one side. A very odd deco
ration appears at the waist Of a charm

The designers have used much In.
genuity In the new trimmings. They
have gone back to the days of 10, 80
and 90 for inspiration in trimming a
gown with its own material. Serge
suits made of that new, fine serge that
has caught the popular fancy Of all
American women who have seen It,,
are trimmed with bias folds Of the ma
terial. These folds trim the sleeves,
the neck and outline patch pockets on
the hips. They are not stitched; they
are turned under, slip-stitched and
lightly pressed down. Cable cords, as
we used to call them, have also been
revived. They are made into loops,
fleurs-de-lis and Chinese designs and
placed wherever the gown needs ac-
centing.

This year, many farmers and suburb
antics who have hitherto gone about
their spring repairs as a matter Of
course, will perhaps delay before get
ting them under way to ask "Will 1t
pay" The unprecedented scarcity Of
labor and the unusually high prices
Of nearly all kinds Of building mate
rials will, no doubt, suggest to many
the advisability Of postponlng the
usual Improvements to later time.
AS matter of fact nothing could be
more shortsighted and contrary to
every principle Of sound management
and economy.
While building materials Of many
kinds are, undoubtedly, higher in
price than they have been In many
years, there is every reason to believe
that they will mount still higher. As
the war goes on, the available supplies

etons again In the fall and believes
they will be more popular even than
this spring. The eton suit unques-
tionably saves fabric. He thus bases
his prediction Of coming demand for
the eton on the belief that fabrics
will be scarce and higher in price
next season. This particular American
costumer discredits recent Paris pre-
diction that long suit coats will be
vigorously pushed to the front next
season.
Fall fashions at present are pretty
much guess work and as a matter OF
fact fashion is so variable every sea-
son that 1t is pretty difficult to keep
pace with 1t.

Not only Is good maintenance a
sound business proposition that no
farmer can afford to put of to later
time, but it Is also especially desir-
able at the present time, for the pres.
ervatlon of building materials, Is a
means Of further conserving our na-
tional resources. There can certainly
be no better way Of aiding in the war
against waste than by protecting
through every means at our disposal
the enormous investment we have in
our dwellings and farm buildings az
well as city property.
Barn for Valuable Cows.
A good example of a well-built and
well-cared-for farm building is shown
In the accompanying design. 1t is a
barn for valuable dairy cows.
Dairy cattle, like everything else,
have gone way up in price. 1t doesn't
take much of COW today to sell al
500, and plenty of thoroughbreds are
bringing ten times that amount.
They are worth 1t, toe. A high-priced
COW is often the biggest money-maker
for her owner, and, the best food pro.
ducer for the nation.
Valuable dairy cows should be well
housed. No animal can produce effi.
ciently when stabbed In an uncomfort.
able or insanitary way. A clean stall
and clean manger, plenty Of sunshine
and fresh air, protection from the cold
and pure drinking water piped to the
stall and within reach at all times, add
anywhere from 10 to so per cent tC
the yield from each COW over what II
would be under the ordinary neglected
conditions of stabling and feeding.
Any cow that's worth keeping at all
is worth taking care Of and housing
In the proper stable. For thorough
breds-prize stock-it pays to 60 still
further and give them quarters In lint
with their value.
Such a barn Is illustrated here. Th'

Economy In Painting
True economy is in keeping farm
buildings well painted at all times. A
paint film on a few square yards Of
surface costs but little, yet It will pro-
tect and beautify several dollars
worth of surface for many years. To
leave a surface implanted for several
years will save" In paint by n few
cents for every square yard Of sur
face, but II will cost several dollars
In structural materials wasted and
beyond repair. When buildings are
painted frequently, they are always
well protected, the surface is in bet
ter condition for repainting, less paint
Is required and the appearance of the
property is always at its best. The
cost represents the lowest possible
rate Of insurance.
Nothing shows more clearly the
value of good painting and repairs
than the attitude of bankers in maxi
Ing loans on farm property. A care
full inquiry of leading bankers shows
that farmer can borrow all the way
from five to fifty per cent more when
his buildings are well painted and in
good condition than when they appear
neglected.
The average increased loan value
under such conditions is considerable.
Bankers take this attitude not only
because well-painted buildings are well
preserved and better security but be-
cause where houses, barns, fences and
tools are well taken care of the as
sumption Is that the farm is a profit.
able proposition and the farmer a
good client. A well-kept farm is in
variably an indication of thrift, and
the banker knows that money can
safely be loaned to the thrifty farmer.
The same line Of reasoning applies,
Of course, to the selling value of farm
property. Farms with buildings in
good order invariably sell more read
lily and for higher price than those
whose appearance indicates that the
farm was an Improbable venture. II
Is common knowledge among real es-
tate men that well-painted farm build
ings bring an increased price out OF
all proportion to the cost of maintain.

will be steadily decreasing. and 1t Is
hardly possible that any but higher
prices will result. On the other hand.
should the war come to an end in the
near future, 1t is not likely that the
general range Of prices will show an
appreciable decrease for many years.
The war undoubtedly will be followed.
in this country, by an unprecedented
period of building, which, in conjunc-
ton with the enormous reconstruction
necessary in Europe, will for long
time prevent return to normal prices.
Insurance Against Deterioration.
But whatever the effect Of the war
on prices, money spent now on prop
erty maintenance cannot well be bet
ter spent. The fact that building ma
terials are higher In price than ever
before means that property Invest
ment is just that much more valu-
able. 1t is always cheaper to keep
property In good condition than to re-
place 1t. 1t is even more so at the
present time. Good upkeep now is
insurance against having to make re-
placements at a time when they Will
be almost prohibitive in cost.
A practical builder in explaining
what he meant by good maintenance
said the other day: "Repairs and
painting when necessary" He placed
his emphasis on the last two words.
1t Is as impossible to make up at a
later date for paint and repairs on
buildings that have been neglected,
as 1t is to take out insurance after
buildings have burned to the ground.
Painting, like insurance, has for Its
object protection, and to be effective
II must be done on time.
Paint Is so ordinarily considered as
beautifier that very often not enough
thought is given to its protective func-
tions. Actually building coated with
sheets of India rubber would not be
as well protected from decay as q
structure that has been well painted
because the rubber is not nearly so dur
able as an elastic film Of properly pre-
pared paint. A paint film one one
thousandth Of an inch In thickness, al
long as It remains intact, will protect

DUTY THEIR ONLY THOUGHT
Soldiers Who Carry Messages lave
but One Idea, the Information
Must Reach Its Destination.

There is post every once in so
often along the front lines. where the
men detailed to messenger service
await their turn for duty. Every hour
a message of some sort must be car
ried to the rear, If only to inform the
reserves that all is well. The men pass
the time between turns singing and
whistling and joking with each other.
When the hour is up the man whose
turn it is takes the message, shakes
hands with the others, says $50 long,
boys" and starts. They shake hands,
because they know the chances are he
will not reach the rear. In that case
another man will start, take the mes
sage from him and carry it on. Some
times he, too, falls before the goal is
reached. Then a group of messengers
leaves the post, and one or the other of
them picks up the message. For the
message must get to the rear.
Often it happens as in one instance.
A desperately wounded messenger
reached the rear and gave the message
into the hands of the commanding of
ficer. He had picked it up from a
fallen comrade and had himself been
ait twice on the way. He died while
the officer was reading the message:
Nothing to report. From a Red
