DUTIES OF DAIRYMEN GIVEN
Use Best Methods Of Breeding and
Management and Utilize All Prod
ucts to Advantage.

prepared by tho United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
The duties and responsibilities of
dairymen are especially important In
the maintenance of the dairy industry
for the good of the nation. An op-
p%ortunity is presented to dairymen to
serve humanity by the conservation of
dairying. Their part is to use the
best methods of breeding and manage
ment, feed wisely and economically,
and utilize all products to the best
advantage. The fuller utilization of
by-products for human food brings an
added financial return that will do
much to help maintain the industry.
We are depending upon the ingenuity
and efficiency of the American people
to play a large part in the winning of
the war. This same ingenuity and eff
ficiency must be used in the productive
industries as well as In destructive
ones. II, after putting into effect the
best methods and practices for econ
omy and efficiency, 1t still is necessary
to dispose OF dairy COWS, the dairymen
should endeavor to sell them to other
dairymen, better situated, in order hat
the supply of milk may not be reduced.
On the small farm. and 1t is from
such farms that the bulk Of our dairy
products come, most of the work is
done by the farmer and his family.
Would 1t not be possible on many Of
these farms to keep one or two or
three more cows without great incon-
~venisnce7 This and Increased eff
cheney will meet the situation. We
shall have milk for our babies; we
shall maintain u industry; we shall
have dairy products for u armies,
and, in addition, shall be able to share
literally with our friends across the
sea.

AUToIsT MUST WATCH LEAKS
II VIII Pay Car Owner to Make Thor
ough Examination at Least Ev-
cry Three Months.

There are so many places about the
motor where leaks are likely to de-
velop that 1t will pay the car owner to
go over the mechanism once In three
months with this in mind. Frequent
offenders are the spark plugs and
printing cups. Pour a little oil around
the lower parts of these while the en-
CINE is running. If there is a leak
bubbles in the oil will betray 1t. An
other vulnerable place for leakage is
the valve system. See whether the
valve stems and push rods are COW
cred with oil if they are the stems or
guides are probably worn, or the push
rods or their guides may be to blame.
The cylinder head is liable to develop
leakage If the gasket is not in good
condition or the head spring out of
shape. Leakage at the inlet manifold
connection to the carburetor may cause
poor motor operation by thinning the
mixture. Sometimes the leakage here
is so great that it cannot be overcome
by reducing the amount of air going
through the carburetor itself.

In the seasons collection of pretty
things for the fiapper and for younger
girls, there appear many plain little
dresses made Of ~taffeta, pongee and
other wash silks that are practical for
little ladies. The bingham taffetas"
that were presented early in the spring
were especially welcome for children's
dresses and led up to the use of other
silks. Pongee turns out to be as good
a choice as can be made for the smaller
girls who may have this and Bingham
taffetas to add something splendid to
their possessions, while the Happier re-
joices in plain %taffeta. finished off with
q little simple embroidery, and cling
ham taffetas made up to suit her
youthfulness, with net or organdie.
The pongees and gingham taffetas
for the smaller girls are designed about
as their cotton or linen dresses are.
Very narrow filet edgings or cluny
edgings provide a pretty finish for
them and simple needlework in fancy
stitches is used as 1t is on cottons. The
, 1918-05-30

dress in the illustration is an example
in which needlework on pongee reveals
how childish and tasteful this kind Of
decoration is. The model is very plain
with a panel set in at the front under
plaits at each side. Across the panel
at the neck, there is a narrow band Of
the pongee outlined at its edge with
feather stitching or any narrow fancy
stitch. A wider band, finished In the
same way, takes the place of a belt,
crossing the panel at the waistline.
There are three-quarter length sleeves
wide at the bottom, and t%urned-back
cuffs.
The most interesting detail in the
design appears in square pieces Of
pongee, cut with short tabs at the top,
that are set on at the waistline on
each side. A button, covered with
pongee, and ornamented with stitches,
is sewed to each tab. On these pieces
the small gathered pockets find posi-
ton and the effect is that Of a short
Jacket with pockets at the sides.

DAIRY PRODUCTS IN DEMAND
Essential to WeII-Beins of Nation and
Effort Should Be Made to
Maintain Supply.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
The shifting demands due to the war
have called for important changes in
the dairy industry. Dairying is one of
the largest OF the agricultural enter
prises of this country and the demands
upon 1t will be In proportion to its i'm
%portance. Dairy products are essen
tial to the well-being of the nation and
every effort should be expended to
maintain the supply of this country
and so far as possible to meet the in
creasing demands of the allies. Some
of the principal advantages of dairy
ing are:
1. The sale of dairy products fur
nishes a steady income throughout the
year. The farmer who depends upon
crop sales for his income usually
makes the bulk of his sales during one
or two months of the year.. while dur
ing the rest of the year he has no cash

LOOSE RIM CAUSES TROUBLE
Generally Makes Its Presence Known
by squeaklng Sound When Out
of Alignment.

It is generally understood nowadays
that wheels which are out of align
ment undue tire wear. Few
owners, however, realize that rims
which are loose or otherwise improp-
erly mounted will have the same eff
feet Of causing excessively rapid tread
year. A loose rim generally makes its
presence known by a clinking or
squeaking sound. This is not always
so, for occasionally a small stone or
some sand may get in between the
rim and felloe so as to prevent noise.
The rim appears to be tight, but in
reality is running out Of alignment
and wearing out the tire.

The custom of wearing heavy mourn
ing for many months, or even years,
at a time has passed away, and there
are many good reasons why 1t should
pass. The main n is the sense of OBJ
hgatlon and consideration for other
people, who are depressed by the
mourning Of their friends. Another
is hat strength of character is meas
ured by %fortitude, among other things,
and griefs must be borne without COM
plant. Women put on all-black and
wear 1t for several months, or a year,
but II is not the deep mourning that
used to be worm. Instead of long wells
Of Grape, they wear wells Of net, Dor
dered with Grape, for first mourning,
and later small net wells without Grape.
The first mourning hats may be en-
tirely covered with Grape or with the
weaves In black silk that are used
for mourning. The shapes should be
medium in size and not unusual In
the best mourning millinery such dec
orations as the hats have are made of
the material that is used for covering
the shape. Exact lines and exquisite
Workmanship must characterize the
making and the trimming of mourning
hats above all others. Black or white
Grape is the insignia of mourning, and
is worn for as short a period as one
month or as long as a year. The ten
dency is toward shortening the time
that Grape is worn and using all-black
in other fabrics instead.
The small sailor shape pictured,
with round crown, covered with dull
finished, black silk is a dependable and
excellent mourning hat. The band
about the crown is made of folds of
silk and small, pointed tabs of silk are
turned over 1t. The veil is a square

Part In Feeding the Nation.

income. Such a system requires long
credits in the community.
2. The market for dairy products
fluctuates very little year by year as
compared with other farm products.
8. Through the return of manure to
the lane the fertility and physical con
dition Of the soil may be maintained
at a high level and crops increased.
Even after many years a properly
maintained dairy farm has constantly
increasing crop yields instead Of de-
~creasing mes.
4. In dairying, labor may be utilized
at a more uniform rate throughout the
year, for example. may have to employ
much additional labor at harvest time,
but so far as the dairy is concerned the
dairyman has about the anne duties
to perform every month of the year.
Thus less help is required %seasonaIly
and permanent employees may be
kept.
8. Through the dairy COW many un-
salable roughages may be transformed
into products from which cash may be
realized. Grass, hay, corn-fodder and
other roughage which may not have a
ready sale are economically utilized by
the dairy cow. Land which is not
suitable for cultivation can be utilized
for pasturage for dairy ows

Manufacturers.
EXHAUST HEATED MANIFOLD
Three Separate but Connecting Jackets
Furnish Three Different Degrees Of
Heat at Three Different Points
Shut off In Summer.

Although the fear that the United
States faces q gasoline famine has
been proven unfounded by statistics on
petroleum supply and demand, thou
sands of American motorists still have
a fuel problem with which to contend,
a problem that the motorcar manu-
facturer must solve by providing i'm
proved methods of carburetion.
Since the outbreak of the war gaso-
line of a comparatively inferior grade
has been the rule in this country, and
as a result gasoline mileages have de-
creased.
Statistics compiled by the Society of
Automotive Engineers show that the
average car now travels only twelve
miles to the gallon, but the authorities
maintain that this average can be al
most doubled If automobile engineers
will furnish better means of carburet-
ing the heavier and less volatile grades
of fuel now being produced by the
refiners.
Heated Manifold Aids Motor.
An inspection of automobiles, how
ever, is exceedingly encouraging. A

been found in devices used on several
makes of cars, among which is an ex-
haust-heated manifold consisting of
three separate but connecting Jackets
that furnish three different degrees of
heat al three different points.
The first jacket incloses the branch
of the manifold, heating the gasoline
at the point Of immediate distribution
to the cylinders and taking care of any
condensation. The second is around
the throttle chamber, where 1t prevents
condensation around the throttle valve
at low throttles. The third is located
at the low speed throat of the car
buretor, insuring v~aporization at low
speeds.
Heat off In Summer.
In warm weather, when efficient car
buretion often ceases to be a problem,
the heat can be shut off by turning a
butterfly valve located at the exhaust
connection of the manifold jacket. In
addition there is another butterfly
valve at the connection Of the ar
buretor exhaust jacket, which is linked
to the throttle valve and automatically
shuts off the heat when the throttle is
wide open.
