for a walk in the morning. The time and place must be given consid- eration, for how absurd to wear a dressy hat with a mannish walking costume. If the hat is dressy the suit or coat must be dressy and the shoes must be of rather dainty last If one does not properly com plement the other. the entire cos tune is a failure, even though each part in itself is pleasing. The dis cordam combination has distaste- full effect.
 Perhaps the biggest factor in the development of perfect costume is the material The material must be good, for though the lines be prefeet and fit above the slightest criticism. if the material is of inferior quality the time and labor have been spent in vain An expensive material viii outlast the cheaper materials and always is mark of good taste. The present modes require very little material and for that very reason everyone ought to exert extensive efforts to buy the best material.
 Affairs are gradually becoming nor mal and very soon the market will lower the prices of woolen goods not as low as the pre-war prices. however, for market conditions are never the same after a war as before. And with the material cheaper, no one will have the slightest excuse for not being smart and we'll dress ed person.
 Thanks to the sensible buyers and, must say. sensible women, the de- mand for novelty shoes has decreas- ed and they are now passee. So few have feet that can wear these oddly cut boots and shoes; and still just those who can will not attempt it if it has been approved as the prevail ing mode in footwear. If one has those dainty little feet that look well only in a short vamp shoe. one should stick to short vamp shoes whether la mode censors them or not. Loud, extreme colors should be avoid ed. and if one wants spot of light color next the skirt, there are many subdued shades of spats that one may get at a reasonable price.

AS TO FEEDING OF HOGS By H. E. Dvorachek
Professor of Animal Husbandry TIniversity of Arkansas)


 University of Arkansas)
 It is generally considered that one cannot get the best milk flow from sows unless one uses some feed, to- gether with corn and tankage. Wheat shorts or bran are considered more desirable than rye shorts for this purpose. Feeding sixty per cent corn, thirty per cent mill feed and ten per cent tankage will make a very satisfactory mixture. This can be fed dry, or preferably in warm slop during cold weather. Feed about four per cent of the weight of the SOW daily-that is, a hundred pound SOW should have at least four pounds of the mixture daily; larger animals in proportion to weight As soon as the pigs will eat, provide trough or self-feeder for them, so they can get additional feed.
 We have come to believe that oil meal is just as valuable as tankage for gowing shoats when combined with corn in the propotion of one part of oil meal to eight parts of

Why the Dairy Cow Pays

Every farmer in Arkansas should have at least two to six good dairy cows because they will furnish a cash income the year round to pay the grocery bills, buy the clothing and shoes for the family and cover other incidentals. The skim milk makes pork production more profit able and the home made fertiiizer increases crop yields and cuts the cost of crop production.

sKILLFUL PIECE OF WORK
Novel Feat Of Engineering Recently
Put to the Credit of American
Bridge Builders.

Not long ago 1t was discovered that
the piers Of the combined highway and
railroad bridge across the Missouri
river at st. Joseph, Mo-, were in bad
condition and 1t would be necessary
to build new piers. At first it was
proposed to build the new piers on
the downstream side Of the old bridge
and shift the bridge laterally to the
new position, in this way maintaining
traffic over the old bridge while the
new construction was going ON. But
the war department required the In
stallation of laiger draw-span in the
bridge and so 1t was decided to build
the new piers between the old piers.
Liter they were completed, the fixed
spans of the bridge were moved shore
ward endwise, so that they rested on
the new piers. A temporary span was
constructed to f1ll the gap thus oc-
casiOned, so that traffic was closed
over the bridge for less than ten hours.
Then work was begun upon the new
swing span, which was built as canti-
lever in open position. To permit OF
this, q portion of the old swing-span
had to be cut away and temporary
lift-span was put in to take care Of
river traffic. Thus the bridge was re-
constructed without changing Its
alignment.-Scientific American.

Our Book Of Doom.

A doomsday book Of a new sort has
been produced by the alien property
custodian. 1t approximates 500 pages
and sets out the names of the enemy
concerns that have been found in the
United States. The custodian thinks
his efforts have been without real cost
to the country, since he brought to
light for the treasury to collect more
than 100000 in income taxes which
were being evaded. Besides. the Gus
todian turned some of the German con-
Germs to war work and had them pro-
duce $30,000,000 worth of supplies.
The custodian's new book, says Ma
tion's Business, contains deal Of
comfort for Americans who have
claims against Germany and who have
been wondering If they will have to
wait for payment until Germany makes
up her mind about the variety of gov
ernment she likes best. The state de-
partment has hinted that American
claimants may get immediate reim-
bursement from the funds the eusto.
dian has collected.

LEARNING TO BE A CIVILIAN
Discharged British Soldier Testifies
That He Finds New Feeling
Out Of Uniform.

Is the glamor of uniform wearing
of?
After three years of service clothes
I have just spent my first days in
civilian attire. Surprising to tell.
believe | have met with more civility
out of uniform than in it, "R. G."
writes in the continental edition of the
London Mail.
Two possible solutions of this re-
markable attitude occur to me. The
first Is that most officers appear to be
rather stern and stand-offish in uni
form. The other solution, and per-
haps an equally probable one, is that
the public is getting tired of seeing
so many officers going about aimlessly
with apparently nothing much to do
except to spend money and kill time
Naturally. suppose, when l first
went out in "civvies" l had the in
grained inclination to salute all su-
perior officers met and to prepare to
take saluteS from the ranks. It took
me the best part Of a day to overcome
tAiS iINpulScs
The 'sir" habit was very strong, too
On my first morning as civilian l
had to see a colonel at the war office
on Observation-Disclosures in which our
standing was at least equal--and !
Immediately "sirred" him, of course.
Force of habit, pure and simple.
Again there is the matter of running
after an omnibus or across the road
In uniform one tries to make a point
of not doing these things. Now, how
ever, when example" has not longer
to be considered, find 1t practically
impossible to chase an omnibus or
flee from an oncoming taxicab. The
instinct Is against doing so.
Apparently 1t is just as necessary to
relearn how to be a civilian as It
once was to learn how to be soldier.
