Such a frock as this would grace inc tea. the matinee, the theatre in short, it would look well any where. any time, where an informal frock is worn. It Is the sort which Is indispensable to the modern girl whose income forbids more than one or two frocks a season.
 It is the lines which make for chic here. The shoulder-line, the waist line and the skirt-line, all have been originally and cleverly handled. Many a girl who would wear collarless frock but dares not because it IS unbecoming will welcome this enve- lope type of collarless neck which can more gracefully be worn than the perfectly plain one.

ETIQUETTE

HOURS FOR CALLLNC-Wha is the proper hour for making an even ing call?
 (Answer. )-CaIIs may be made in the evening as early as o'clock in the winter months. Gentlemen are privileged to present themselves as late as 9 or even s:5O. It is not in good taste, though, to pursue this course in a neighborhoOd where life is simple and bedtime earlier than in the big cities.
 CARDS BEFORE AND AFTER A FUNERAL-When should cards be left by those who desire to show their sympathy, yet are not on suf- ficiently intimate footing to ventul
 a call or a note of condolenCe?
 CAnswer. )-Cards should be left by persons who find themselves in this position, a few days after the fun eral. The intimate friends as well as acquaintances leave their cards just after the death has been announced. RETURNING CARDS OF IN QUIRY.-How should one recovering from an illness show appreciation for cards and favors received during an illness?
 (Answer.) When an invalid has re- covered sufficiently, he or she may send their own name cards on which | is pencilIed the phrase: Many thanks i for your kind inquiries When callers i have been generously attentive and 1 thoughtful in sending flowers, books, 1 etc, a cordial note of thanks should 1 be sent

Household budgets with accounting

From the woman's division comes
encouraging news that women of the
Fifth Federal Reserve District are in
rapidly increasing numbers making
known their desire to place the con-

her shoulders is placed an equal
share with her husband of the re
sponsibility of making the family in

The budget is based on annual In
comes ranging from $500 to $4,000.
It is prepared for the average family
and since, after all. there is no aver

The Warehouse Situation.

To the Tobacco Growers of Maryland:
At the request of members of the
State Board of Agriculture and others,
I am making the following statements
of the State Tobacco Warehouse situa-
ton, both as to financial and business
side and as to the much talked of en-
barge.
In March 1915 took charge of the
State Warehouses and will say, that no
one was more surprised than myself
when my appointment was made known
to me, as was not an applicant for
the position as the Governor will at
test.
1t is needless for me to go over the
condition the Warehouses were in
when l took charge Of them: that is well
known to farmers as well as
Dealers. 1 receipted for 5477 hogs
heads of obacco and there had accumu
lated 1854. SO in the four years Of my
predecessor. This under the Law had to
be turned over to the Comptroller,
leaving no funds on hand, so borrow
ed to pay the first payroll, and also to
pay from S200O.00to $250O.00 that should
have been paid by the preceding Ad-
l paid the last note in the Bank aud
started surplus on March Is, 1919 l
deposited $1700000 on Savings Ac-
count "a per cent, and on June Goth.
the end Of the fiscal year l had check
ing account together with the $1,000
90 and interest of $47,915 Of, which 1
turned oyer to the Comptroller of the
State October 9th, 1919
On July End, had 1868 hogsheads of
tobacco in the Warehouses and felt
that we would be able to handle the
1919 Crop without an embargo. 1t will
be remembered that the month of July
was wet one and tobacco came 10
Baltimore in unheard of quantities. This
and the strike of the sailors tying up
all outward shipments, making it neces-
sary to put a partial embargo on the
Boats and Railroad for about two
weeks. When l went to the Railroad
Administration to get the embargo
raised, they claimed they needed the
space for perishable goods. Last week
l went to them and appealed to them
to raise embargo entirely, this they re-
flushed to do, saying again they needed
the space for perishable freight. Ger
tainly the Warehouse should not be
blamed for this action of the RAILROAD
A administration. The same case exist
ed 1918 The Railroad placed an cmbar-
GO because their force had the flu
the Warehouse being blamed for this,
when the fact was the Warehouse EN-
barge was of Lshort duration. l want
to say that everything that could be done
to serve the Farmer has been dom.
Ia 1914 there were only 1887 hogs
heads Of tobacco received. and in 1915
there were IL, 500 hOgsheads received and
at no time was there over y, 800 hogs
heads in stock. Contrast that with
Is. 500 hogshead last week and our mum
beers are now $4,000 for this year and
NAV reach 40 900 hogsheade, and n
1918 out Crop Of %. 00s hogsheads
we handled "a 900 with scarcely any
foreign shipments, and it must be re-
membered that the State is practically
the only Warehouse open to the Mary

land Farmers whereas in 1914 and 1919
the Baltimore 4 Ohio Railroad Ware
house was handling Maryland Tobacco.
1t is needless for me to tell anyone
of the difficulties in handling labor IN
1918 and even now.
| cannot see why this Institution
should be made political issue as the
State Board of Agriculture is a Non
Political Board and every Farmer has
had the same treatment here regardless Of
politics. Business ability and attent-
ion to duty have been the influence
that retained the Warehouse Force IN
their respective positions. As farmer
| have given the best that was in nae to
the interest of the Farmers and think
| am saying the standard OF Maryland
Tobacco has been raised q good MAJ
cents per pound.
| want 10 say in conclusion, too,
hpre there will be no more embargoes,
sincerely hope so, and maybe there will
not be, for we hope that times will pc
come normal again before long and
that no one will ever see world war
again with all its troubles aud horrors J.
But l do say, that if Mr.. Nice or Mr..
Richie either had been Governor in
1918 and 1919 they could not have done
aud more than was done. and II
