PRODUCING QUALITY BEEF.

PRODUCING QUALITY BEEF-
Livestock markets during recent
years have experienced a continual
growing demand for well fattened
beef animals weighing from 500 10
1900 pounds In order to meet this de-
maud and secure the highest prices,
breeders are showing an increased
tendency toward finishing of their
beef cattle at younger ages Stock
raisers find It more profitable 90 con-
duet their operations in this manner
than TO hold their cattle 70 advanced
ages. as was the custom some years
ago, when pasture land was cheaper
than il is at present
Such a demand must necessarily be
supplied by wen finished animals
from IA TO 20 months old carrying a
large percentage Of blood Of one OF
the early maturing beef breeds usu-
ally that Of the Hereford, Aberdeen
Angus. or Shorthorn- To distinguish
them from animals Of other beef
classes. these yearlings have come to
be designated as baby beeves. The
use OF better bulls with consequent
turity is an essential in the prOduc-
for market OF this class of beeVes re-
the production Of animals marketed at
more mature ages, but as has been
stated. It is also usually more profit
able Heavier grain feeding IS nee
essary, but as the feeding period is
shorter a less amount Of grain is nee
essary to bring the cattle to maturity.

ABOUT SHARING MILK COST


Serious increases in the cost Of pro-
ducing milk have resulted I'm recent
years from feed and labor problems
This increase is in keeping with the
Increase in the cost Of almost all other
commodities, and the consumer must
expect TO pay his portion Of any legiti-
mate increase fin the cost or production
occasi oncd by these conditions.
On the other hand, there is need OF
more attention to better management
on the average farm devoted TO the
production Of milk. The amount Of
milk produced per COW is frequently
so low as to reflect seriously on the
business ability OF the owner. There
is no good excuse for slack business
methods on the dairy farm. Direc-
tions for keeping records OF milk
yields and cost of production are fur
uished by each state agricultural col
leSe and by the United States depart
meut OF agriculture.

In the light of experience the tail
Ored suit of wool cloth has proven that
there is nothing to equal it for giving
general satisfaction. Some other fab
rics make suits as durable and as
good looking but they do not seem to
fit in everywhere and against any sort
of background as wool does. How
ever, there may come time when
there will be no wool to spare, after
the needs of the army are supplied,
and we will be obliged to wear some
thing else. Manufacturers are already
experimenting with other fbers and
have turned out few new fabrics that
look practical.
The most noteworthy Of these mate
rails is tricotine or tricolet, woven of a
heavy, silky fiber that is strong and sup
pie. 1t has the brilliance Of silk and the
strength Of wool and is especially
handsome in black and in dark tones
Of brown and blue. It. is used for
gowns and suits. For the first, hand
some fringes are wonderfully effective.
as a trimming while braiding seems
the best finish for suits.
The suit at the right in the picture
is a Conservation tailleur" of trico-
tine with collar and tunic waistcoat
OF crepe. 1t earns its patriotic title
because 1t is not wool and compels en-
thusiastic praise because it is hand
some and cleverly designed. The col
lar and waistcoat are braided and,
might be embroidered, for both these
decorations find themselves against
just the right background in tricotine.
The: coat fastens across the waistcoat
at the front with two diagonal straps
that button at the left side.
There are still plenty Of wool suits
to be had-just how long the supply
will last no one can tell. One of the
best of those shown for. fall appears
Mt the left of the picture. 1t is 'taupe

The "FIu" Tea.

It takes something with a
greater force than an influenza
epidemic to stifle the social Gre
lave ingenuity of the ladies
and prevent them from congre-
eating for that very enjoyable
feminine privilege, "a good
talk" If this reporter is not
misinformed the pink tea" so
long q favorite in feminine So
cial life, has been swept into the
discard and in it's place has
been ipaugurated the "flu tea"
From what information there is
at hand the "flu tea" is a much
jollier affair than it's predeces-
sor. The ladies at all these
functions wear the regulation
gauze mask but it is highly
camouflaged with pink or pale
blue baby ribbon around the
edges and here and there a tiny
bow of the same material. III
order to conform to the edicts
of the health board with regard
to persons congregat1ng in
large numbers, the ladies call
upon the hostess one at a time
and time their visits so thai
there will be not more than
three talking to the hostess at
the same time.

WAY IS PAVED
To STRIKE At
Rhine VALLEY

WASHINGTON.-The smashing
victory of the Anglo-American often
sive north of St. Quentin may be
paving the way for early invasion of
Germany itself Striking hints of a
wholly new enterprise, directed at the
upper Rhine valley, has come from
unofficial quarters in France and they
follow repeated reports froa..Switzer-
land that the civil populations of the
Rhine valley towns were being re-
moved by the German authorities.
Some officials here regard these re-
ports as highly significant. They give
them particular weight because it
I CIV appears certain that the enemy
will be forced far back ali along the
front in Northern France and Bel
glum within the next few days. While
the constant hammering is kept up
in the north to pin the German arm
les there, it might be possible. it was
said to deliver a new stroke on the
Alsace-Lorraine front that night
swiftly develop into an invasion of the
Rhine valley.
