We showed several of these waists to a customer the other day who had just arrived from Seattle, and after selecting two of the lot, she was frank enough to say that she did not see anything in the big city stores any nicer, and not so reasonable. We buy our waists of the same New York manufacturers that the big stores purchase of, and you pay no more for this service.

RIGHT USES FOR SKIM MILK
nishes Maximum Amount of Food
to Human Beings.

All skim milk should be psed-none
wasted 1t should furnish the maxi
mum of food to human beings and
does this better when used direct, as
cottage cheese, prepared butt@milk,
or other byproducts, than when fed
to animals and converted into meat
Surplus skim milk, Of course, may be
used economically to feed hogs, Jet
100 pounds of it. which will produce
Is pounds Of cheese, produce only
48 pounds Of dressed pork If fed with
corn. Skim milk, If made into cottage
cheese, furnishes nearly seven times
as much protein and nearly rs much
energy as the dressed pork it would
produce. OF course the most nourish-
ment is obtained when skim milk is
used direct, either for drinking or
cooking. As far us possible, therefore,
skim milk should be used for human
food and only the excess fed to live

The fact that there is e coal shortage
has been set forth Ia the public press,
but it is not believed that the rural
sections Of ihe state realize the full
significance OF the situation. That the
rural communities have not suffered so
severely from the coal shortage this
winter is due to their having gotten in
supplies before the shortage occurred
There are, however. TO surplus supplies
to be drawn upon next summer as was
the case last year, and the situation be
comes more serious. Certainly every
farmer who has been in the habit of
using coal entirely, or in part. should
draw upon his wood lot Tor his fuel sup
ply. Those living in the village or
towns:w within hauling distance of wood
supplils should Jay in reserve stock Of
wood, as they may not be able to get
coal or only a limited amount.
There still remains d month or six
weeks,of the winter period which is the
best time to cut wood. This is the sea
son when the men and teams on the
farms are least busy and when the
weather is most favorable for woods
operations. When the spring drive be-
gins, with busy preparations for the
farm crops, wood cutting will be out of
the question. and in the fall the har-
vesting Of crops will demand attention
until it is too late TO have wood cut and
seasoned for next winter use. 1t has
often been emphasized that crop pro-
duction at the present time is the most
important contribution that the farmer
can make in Winning the war. Wood is
largely a farm crop, often as import
ant as any other crop produced by the
farmer and should be 50 considered. To
realize the fullest benefit, however, the
farmer should cut not only enough for
his own needs but a Surplus which he
viii be able to sell at good profit next
winter. The cost Of cutting wood, pre-
pairing ii for the market, and the re-
tail price are all variable factors, de-
pending upon loca! conditions and de-
mand. Information obtained from diff
ferent localities will, however, serve as
d basis for calculation and enable the
woodland owne. to calculate for himself
the probable income from woods

Total Cost 50. 81

Profit. SO per cord
This price is for green wood. When
seasoned, the market price per cord de-
livered would probably be IS, making
the profit much larger.
In many cases it would be found
practicable for the farmer to cut his
wood this winter in convenient lengths
for hauling, pile it up at convenient
places in ov near the woods where 1t can
be sawed into stove length next winter.
Portable wood saws, operated with gas
oline engines can be hired by the hour
for cutting wood into stove lengths, or
they can be hired to do the work by the
cord. The cost Of cutting INTO stove
length by the cord. when all labor is
furnished by the sawyer, is from Sl.00
to 81 co. The cost Of a four horse
power gasoline saving ontft is about
$3.50.
The Fuel Administration will be glad
to assist any one in finding a profitable
market for any surplus wood that he
may have cut ready for delivery.
