NEW KNITTING STITCHES

There are many ways. of knitting
sleeveless army sweaters. Besides
the commonly used garter or plain
knitting stitch, sweaters can be made
of the stocking stitch, which con-
sists of knitting across the wrong
side of the garment, or of the 'new''
stitch, in which you slip one and knit
one across the right side and knit
the slipped stitch and purl the knit
ted stitch back across the wrong;
side. Either of these stitches will
make warmer and better wearing
sweaters than those made OF the
garter stitch.

Secretary Baker, believes the Ju-

of critics that has been or hand

war. He has told something official
about the airplanes in the war, and
made it plain that the persons who
have sat in comfortable chairs and
criticised the administration for net
sending over a million airplanes and
putting Germany out of business in
a day, were very shallow thinkers.
He has also shown that the people
who have been talking about there
being tens of thousands OF airplanes
in use at this time did not know
what they were talking about.
According to the secretary, tncre

"Unless the government comes to the

Regarding the manufacture of fish

has been used for fertilizer in times
past, but that at the present time
it is found more valuable as a hog
food and as chicken food than for
fertilizer. Before it is manufactured
into this meal, all the oil is extracted
and it is from this oil that the COM
