Mems Clothing for Spring
Lighter Weight Than Usual

With the wfnd-up of the buying sea-
son for spring delivery, manufacturers
In New York of mems clothing find
themselves with volume of orders on
hand which, in most cases, is above the
record for the corresponding period a
year ago. It is said that, as a rule,
the fabrics to be used in these gar
ments for next spring are lighter in
weight than ordinarily. In other re-
spects, however, there is practically
no evidence of the war regulations"
the notifications in styles that have
been agreed to applying more to next
fall than to the coming spring sea-
son. Patch pockets viii be worn a
great deal, and many double-breasted
costs have been sold. Trousers will
be turned up at the bottom as usual,
though this feature may be cut out in
the fall styles. The cloths used are
mostly of subdued colors and COM
binatiOns of cOlOrs, and conservatism
seems to rule in the great majority of
cases.

Fool Growing Plants.

Scientists have found the way to
make the sun shine, as it were, upon
agriculture. They charge the soil with
electricity and the crops, fooled into
believing that the sun is shining, COM
mence to grow at a rapid pace. There
is no deception about the results Of
this experiment, which are hailed as
an achievement of vast Importance in
these days of war when the production
and conservation of food are SO tre-
mendOuSly vital.
In experiments that have been con.
Quoted under the auspices of the Eng
ish government young strawberry
plants are said to have increased in
yield by so per cent, and even old
plants are reported to have given 80
per cent more fruit. Potatoes can cas-
lily be persuaded, scientists claim, into
the belief that a charge of electricity
is genuine sunshine, as a result Of
which they forthwith grow prOdigi-
OuSly.

who is a stranger to him who hath

Beef and Kidney Rasout.

Wash skin and cut beef kidney into
One-fOurth-inch cubes; wipe pound of
stew meat and cut into inch cubes.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and
dredge with -four. Cut two slices of
bacon into dice, put into saucepan, add
one onion peeled and sliced, cook three
minutes, then add the meat and stir
and cook until well Drowned. Add q
cupful of boiling water, a tablespoonful
of Worcestershire sauce and one green
pepper cut in strips; bring to the boil
ing point, and cook slowly until the
meat is tender. Thicken the gravy,
add half-cupful of stoned ripe olives
and garnish with rings Of green pepper
and fried mush.
A salad that Is most appetizing is
made of a small head of cabbage and
one onion chopped fine. Cut a thick
slice of salt pork into small dice and
fry out until brown; pour the fat all
over the cabbage, stir well, add salt
and pepper to taste, then pour over
enough boiling hot vinegar to moisten
and further season the cabbage. Serve
at once.

curry, one of the most deadly of poi
sons.
One of these drugs might be picked
up for the other in the dark or even
in the daytime, If the label was not
carefully read by the one seeking to
take the medicine. This has resulted
in an innocent father killing his child,
or perhaps his wife, or in some cases
himself
Another great mistake Is to change
drug from one bottle to another
without altering the label. It is often
done in dividing up the contents of
a rare drug with a neighbor. The one
receiving the unlabeled bottle depends
upon his memory which often fails
him, and a fatal mistake results
A very short time ago I knew of
generous doctor dividing up a rare
drug with one of his colleagues, Intend
ing to label the bottle he kept for him
self. He neglected to do so, and not
long after he wGMted to use the drug
and picked up what he believed to be
the proper bottle, but which proved to
contain an agent active in its power to
destroy tissue. This he dropped into
his eye and only escaped having his
eye destroyed by narrow margin.
Now this is quite a common mistake,
and people have been made blind by
this carelessness. Drugs that are most
useful are, as rule, most dangerous,
and should always be kept under lock
and key and plainly labeled. At pres
ent we are being robbed enough Of the
members of our families during the
war, so that we should have no pa
tience with the killing of the innocent
at home by simple carelessness, and it
Is this common, everyday practice of
confusing drug bottles that warn you
against. 1t can all be done away with
If you will only give it reasonable at
tentiOn.

Culture ButtermlIk More
Beneficial as Drink; Has
More of the LaCtic Acid

Culture buttermllk is more beneficial
as a drink than the common variety,
according to c. E. Buchanan of the
dairy department Of the Kansas State
Agricultural college. II is more like
ly to be free from harmful bacteria,
and to contain more of the Tactic acid
which gives II its healthful properties.
Lactic acid bacteria are present in
the digestive tract and destroy other
bacteria which might prove injurious
to the body. The use Of buttermilk as
a beverage is one method Of intrOduc-
Ing more of these Tactic bacteria into
the system.
Whole or skim milk may be used to
make culture buttermilk, but usually
these are combined in equal parts. The
milk is first subjected to a temperature
OF $50 degrees for 80 minutes to steri-
lie 1t. 1t is then cooled to 20 de-
grees and a small amount of starter
Is added. The milk is kept at this
temperature for ten or twelve hours
until the whole is coagulated. After
wards II is beaten thoroughly or churn-
ed from three to five minutes and salt
ed-one teaspOonful of salt to each
gallon. The buttermilk is then cooled
to 90 degrees, at which temperature 1t
is kept ready for use.
The starter is made from pure Tactic
acid culture obtained from the labora-
tories where it is cultivated. The lac
tic acid bacteria are carried by means
of sterilized milk powder made from
the dried casein of milk.
A small quantity of this powder Is
put into small bottle of milk, which
soon coagulates. The curded milk is
used in a new bottle of milk the next
day and this process is continued
through three or four propagations.
These preliminary propagations of the
starter are necessary to eliminate the
peculiar taste of the original powdered
milk culture.

DRIVING RIVETS SLOW WORK
Not Only That, but Enormous Number
Of Them Are Needed In a
Steel Ship.

The largest single Item In the labor
Of fabricating a steel ship is in the
riveting of her hull; therefore the
driving OF rivets is taken as a standard
of size and of progress by most of the
shlpbuilders. To build a 10000 ton
ship a week means the driving Of
about 650,OO0 rlvets In that time. The
Union shlpyards of San Francisco. as
at present equipped and freed from Ia
Dor troubles, can drive about 100000
rivets, although In a record week It
drove 411,000 rlvets; the four next
largest yards in America-at Fore Riv-
er, Mass, at Newport News, Va, at
Camden, and at Philadelphia upon the
Delaware-can drive 100000 to 275,0O0
rivets a week each. A half dozen
smaller steel shIpyards will drive from
$4,000 to 10000 each seven days.
Riveting, despite all the inventions
devised to speed 1t up, remains hand
work and slow work. A riveting gang
consists of two men and two boys
the riveter. his "holder-on," the passer
boy and the heater boy. The gang
drives from 300 to 375 rlvets in the
course Of ten-hOur day and is tired
at the end of 1t. But when you know
that it takes four men all of working
day to drive an average of little less
than $50 rivets. you can begin to see
the full size of the labor problem of
driving at least 650,000 rivets a week
necessary to turn out a 10,000-ton
ship at the end of that length of time.
In other words, you need 1900 men for
the riveting gangs alone.
Look at the matter from another an
gle, writes Edward Hungerford in Har-
per's. Ten ships a week-the tremen-
dOus program for 1918 TO which we
stand cOmmitted-means 6,500,000 riv-
cts a week. And the rivet capacity of
our five greatest yards-with a total
working force of $4,000 men at the end
of 1917-was but 1,350O00 rivets a
week. And riveting represents only
about 20 per cent in the construction
Of a ship.

THE DOLLAR QUEST

OF the dollar you'll find
There is many a kind
While you seek 1t, as men have to do;
And you shouldn't neglect
Some care to select
The kind it is best to pursue.
There's the dollar that WORKS,
And the dollar that shirks;
There's the dollar that loves to assist;
There's the dollar that slacks
And just stands in it's tracks,
When it ought to get Ogt and enlist
There's the dollar thas thrives
And the one that contrives,
An indolent fancy to please;
The dollar that hopes
And the dollar that gropes
In the haunts Of improv.dent ease.
There are dollars that roam;
There are those that stay home,
They are built both for 10y and regret.
And success will depend,
More or less. In the eEd,
On the kind OF Q dollar you get.
