In July the woman who must pro-
vide herself with new headwear turns
her back upon summer materials

for something new. It seems she
likes to anticipate and foreshadow the
season ahead In her millinery. This
and the knowledge that summer IL wan

own new millinery allurements, makes

The shops and stores are now full
Of fabric hats for the demi-season, be-
tween summer and early winter. and
include many hats for fall that will
outlast that season and do service In
the winter as well. There has been a
growing appreciation Of beautiful
lines that has resulted In the most
becoming shapes we have ever had.
Crowns are usually soft and often
draped. These models passed the oil

CORN VS.. PORK
BY HAMllN GARLAND
OF the vlujlantes.

II the war goes on (as 1t seems likely
to do) we may come to Doctor Kel-
logg's way Of thinking and cut out
the raising Of pigs altogether. He es-
timates that 1t takes nearly ten pounds
Of corn to make pound Of pork, and
that when we get the pork we are
worse of than II we had none. This.
/ suspect, Is true, for /, under orders
Of my doctor. have had no pork Of any
kind for three years.
Kellogg is an extreme vegetarian. of
course, and his statements must be
read In the light Of that fact. And
yet he has logic on his side. Why
continue to feed the most vital food
Of the human race to droves Of ami
mails whose flesh Is admitted to be un-
wholesome to many people and without
which all Of US would be better OFT
Another curious reflection comes In
when discussing the raising Of any
kind Of flesh food. How much Of the
corn or oats goes to supply energy for
exercise on the part Of the animal2
Every time pig or steer takes
trot or a gallop around the yard
considerable amount Of food is used
up In a muscular action. This sounds
like a Joke, but It isn't, It is q seri-
GUS observation on the part Of vegeta-
rians.
The Germans, with theif usual efii-
cheney, have taken these matters In
hand. They have decreased the num-
Der Of pigs not only to save food, but
to preserve a certain balance In the
ration. We may yet come to Kellogg's
point Of view and begin the re-
duction Of pork raising to save corn,
retaining only enough pigs to act as
scavengers Of the kitchen refuse.
This much we can do, we can feed
our hogs with care. ! wonder how
many Western farmers still feed their
pigs as they used to do by throwing
the corn into the pen7 At that time.
with corn at 10 cents bushel. It didn't
matter how much was trampled into the
mire, but now the case Is different. We
are careful to clean our own plates,
and yet am not sure that the farmers
are making their cattle feed go as far
as It might by careful rationing. AMI
mails used to be overfed on our farms.
Are they being scientifically fed now7
Corn and wheat can win this war.
and when the final choice Is made pigs
must go, cotton and wool be reduced
in amount, and cattle be raised without
exercise and In the most economical
way.
As write these things am sud-
denly taken anew with the wonder Of
the changes that have come to this
America Of ours. That we of all ma
tions of the world should be seriously
considering how to conserve our food
supply. makes clearer than any other
measure the appalling blight which the
war, with Its destructive agencies, has
thrown over the entire earth. It Ii in
credible but It is true. It IL not only
true, but is becoming each day more
vital In our thinking. How shall we

Sugar saving not only means cutting
down on consumption. but 1t also
means preventing waste. Americans
have allowed their fondness for sugar
to increase to the point where It has
passed extravaganza and become &C.
tual waste. Over-sweetening Of tea
and coffee Is one of our great faults.
More than this. too often a good part
Of the sugar Is not dissolved and Is
left In the bottom Of the cup to be
thrown away. Every housewife should
enforce the rule Of zone teaspoonful

children as well as the grownups must
be willing to do without some Of the
sweet things they want and every one
must be satisfied with much smaller
amounts Of sweetening In general
cooking.
Serve fresh fruits without sugar In
stead Of sweet puddings; have salads
often In place Of desserts: use sweet
dried fruits like dates, raisins or figs
with the breakfast cereals. or little
sirup In place Of sugar. Use cake
sparingly and make 1t from recipes
that call for molasses or sirups-in-
stead Of frosting spread 1t with a
little Jam, fruit butter, or paste.
Canning Without Sugar.
Fruits canned without sugar keep
perfectly but will not have the fine

quantities Of cooked cereal left over

way to economize cereal mushes Ii to

Weman's Help 10 Needed.
Now, here's where we need the good
help of women-the mothers, wives,

It's going to take little time to do
this work Of re-education. Give the
boys this time. Let them stay with
their teachers in these schools until
they are once more fitted to earn a liv-

The very greatest injury you could
possibly put upon your physically in

psychical cripple-to suffocate him in
maudlln sentimentality.
Don't for the great love you bear
him, don't take him home, and make
him dependent. That you are willing
to toll and slave for him IL most
praiseworthy In you. But your we'll

CHICAGO, March 14.-Sailors of the
Atlantic fleet are going to stage an
American and National League pennant
race of their own in France this SUM-
mer. President B. b. Johnson. of the
American League, was advised of the
baseball venture across the sea in a
letter to-day from Lemar r. Leahy,
commander of en- American squadron
now on duty in European waters
ihe American League, President
Johnson announced, will completely
equip the eight ships of Commander
Leahy,'s squadron with baseball outfits,
including uniforms, gloves, bats and
other paraphernala. The equipment
will be sent as quickly as the require
ments of the men are known.
The game is receiving great deal
OF attention in France" he wrote. "All
OF the service organizations have teams.
and great deal of rivalry has sprung
up among the various units We hope
to have good ball teams at the naval
bases, and the ships are preparing for
It, Most of the ships have ex-college
players on board so We ought to have
some very good teams.
There is tremendous rivalry be-
tween the first and second naval squad

proposed that We shall represent the
American League in the coming com
