 GRAIN
 CHICAGO, June 6.-Torrential rains in Iowa, together with resulting floods did much to bring about sharp ad- vances which took place today in the corn market. Prices closed strong to 3A cents net higher. with July $135B to $1.351a and August $1.36k. Oats gained % to 1as cents. Pro- visions finished unchanged to 20 cents lower.
 Reports that crop conditions had rarely if ever been better were re- sponsible for initial declines in corn, as soon however as dealers began to give attention to storm news from Iowa. a decided change of sentiment ensued. trading broadened out. and a sweeping upward movement fol- lowed The advance was furthed stimulated by gossip that in important sections elsewhere than Iowa, es- peciallv the Ohio valley, cultivation was being delayed by rains and that the volume of receipts was likely to be diminished.
 Oats developed strength with corn.
 Tn provisions the effect of the grain bulge was only transient. Before the session was ended the temporary gains were more than counterbal- anced by weakness of the hog market.
 Ciose-Corn: July s1.S5Ss; August s1.361s.
 Oats: July $e71a; Aug. $.621r.
 Pork: July $41.30; Sept. s4l.50.
 Lard: July s2427; Sept. s24.55.

IT'S GOODBYE COOK
IF THE WAR CONTINUES

who formerly kept two servants is now
keeping one unless she Is receiving a
very much increased income. Whereas
a few years ago In many sections you
could keep a competent man and wife
to DO all your household work for forty
dollars a month. the same grade OF
couple now demand and receive hun
dred-and they are rather more hard
20 And at that price than they once
were at forty.
And the enormous number Of Vom-
On who have always been able TO keep
ono maid or ali works are now facing
the not altogether easy problem OF hav-
ing none at all. There is problem OF
adjustment for these women that IS
more difficult than for the woman
whose problem IS simply 70 get along
with fewer servants, and Il Is a prob
lem that requires some quick and
straight thinking II Il IS to be solved
at all II may be looked upon IN the
light OF patriotism. this getting along
without a maid, for most OF the fields
OF work that lure women and girls
from our kitchens are some sort OF war
work. Men servants leave to go into
farming work that pays exceedingly
well this summer or TO go into some
sort OF war work. ammunitions, aero
plane or shipbuilding or something OF
that sort. ana there are countless Jobs
for women in factory work that is Just

some ons for war work, although YOU
may be aware of the fact that one very
potent reason why YOU frst Thought Of

One very Certifying class OF means

up under the words modern household

herself slave to housekeeping. Not
so nowadays. She manages by install
ing new methods, new machinery IN
her house. and so somehow gets ac-
complished In short time and by easy
means all necessary work
Perhaps she goes TO live in an apart
ment house where there is maid service.
In this way she takes ADVANTAGE OF one
sort OF community living offered hy
the big cities. One fireman keeps the
fires going that provide hot water and
heat for many families One maid
keeps many apartments In order And
one cook does the work for several
families
But II she wishes to maintain her
usual home, she relies on the shortcuts.
Perhaps she instalis an electric wash

WHEN YOU PUT LACE ON.

We are not doing much in the way

YOU will have occasion to sew some

is experienced IN such things. Roll the
lace in little roll and tie It with a

WhV Not Table Linen?

II has been said that we may none
% US ever again zee an importation Of
linen into THE country. Flax fields
have been neglected or destroyed. Ma
chinery for want or use has rusted
away Factories have deteriora ted.
The whole linen industry because II is
IN the midst OF war. has collapsed.
SO we have been told And we all
know that Irish. French and German
table linen are no longer TO be had at
the old prices There was. even short
~ after we entered the war a feeling
against German linen which had there
tofore been greatly depended on by ho-
tells that wanted a cheap but durable
and good looking linen. So 1t may be
that some shops have stock Of this
product OF tho enemy country on their
shelves At all events, practically all
importations OF linen have stopped.
And so II IS that we have no new
supplies from which to draw our table
linen. To he sure. the shops yet have
table linen on hand. but they are nat
urally charging very high price for
IT. II Is a rare and costly product IN
these days.
Now all the forecasts about the
length of time that is to elapse before
we have another importation OF table
linen may be wrong, We may get some
shortly after peace is declared. No
body knows for a certainty what VIII
happen in that glorious time. And.
even II We don't get table linen from
over the seas. we may, possibly de
velop some sort Of industry along that
line ourselves. Our grandmothers have
told us-haVen't they of the fax
young how they broke 1t and laid ii
70 rot on the grass. and wet It and let
the sun dry IT, and finally beat IL and
spun Il and bleached il and wove &
The old hand woven sheets We treas
are as a heritage of the DAYS when
spinning was done IN the home are
proof that durable linen could be mace
in this country. As 10 the shining
satiny demask OF imported able linen
that is another thing. However, 1t is
within the bounds Of the possible that
We may produce something in the way
Of really good table damask some day
But in the meantime, dress linen has
not gone up appreciably IN price
There are yards and yards OF Il TO be
had at about the same amount that
it cost before the war
Why not make this into table linen?
Some Of the really smart tea rooms use
tablecloths and napkins made Of plain
linen. Sometimes they use a smooth.
fine weave. And some housekeeprs
with a tast for the unusual also use
this kind Of tablecloths and napkins
So If YOU decide TO make some cloths
and napkins for breakfast and lunch
Of dres linen Of good quality. you will
not be alone in your taste. and your
table viii not look "freaky"
II you do make cloths and napkins
Of dress linen for the table YOU will
save the life Of such damask as you

~ ONCERNLNG certain sorts OF

been considerable difference or

that we have been Hooyerizing, but TO
save wheat and other things needful
for our allies and the soldiers and TO
do away with waste In general. The
effect actually has been to mako our

they are hungry from good honest
work and a good many more are get
ting into the class OF honest workers
now than ever before
To go back to the mooted question.
Some women YOU know, are making
more money than ever before. hence
they can spend more and they natur-
ally do spend more &n dress Another
large class OF women are now filling
positions which call for better dress
ing and It is only part OF efficiency
that they should dress better and
spend more money on clothes. Many
shops selling womens apparel have
been doing a remarkably large bust
ness OF late The class OF women who
are not spending money on clothes are
the very we'll TO do: women who al
ways have dressed expensively and
the women who are spending more are
the ones who have never spent quite
enough.
So though We spend our money DIFF
ferently we do not spend much less
either for food or raiment But there
is one way IN which the American
