MIXING CONCRETE FOR SET
TING STEEL FENCE POSTS.

National Crop Improvement servtce.1
Mixing can best be done on a fiat
platform made as nearly water-tight
as possible by placing the boards close
together. Be sure that you have sharp
sand because sand mixed with yege-
table matter will not make good con-
crete. Measure the sand and spread
it in a layer of equal depth. Place
the cement on top of the sand and
thoroughly mix sand and cement by
turning over with a shovel or mixing
hoe, mixing until the color is uniform.
Spread this mixture on the board. then
spread the gravel on the top and con-
tinue mixing. When you have uni
form mixture, add water and continue
that until the desired consistency Is
secured. Add the water slowly while
cutting it over, as this will save losing
cement. Do not slight the mixing, as
on the mixing largely depends the per-
mapent results.
II the concrete shows streaky or dry
spots. it is not sufficiently well mixed.
and must be turned again. After the
final turning, round up the pile and
it is ready for placing. If you use
sand and gravel mixed. it should be
spread on a mixing board and thor
oughly wet and then spread the ce-
ment on top and mix, adding such wa
ter as is necessary.
The concrete mixture should contain
enough water so that it will handle
nicely on a shovel without running on
much. Slight tamping to remove bub-
N Al <xfx
feet fit is all that is necessary. A wet
mixture is preferable for post setting
Concrete should not be exposed to
the direct rays of the sun until it has
had time TO get hard. As soon as the
concrete at the top of the post hole is
firm, it is a good plan to cover with
earth, green grass or something that
will in a measure retain the moisture.
IL the concrete can be wet every day
for a week. 1t will be better for 1t.
Do not let the concrete freeze. Ii the
weather is frosty, the earth taken
from the hole should be shoveled back
on top of the concrete and left there
until the concrete has set and all dan
ger from freezing is past.
The best mixture is one part cement
three parts sand and three parts grav'
ell. As cement comes In bags OF 1W
pounds, for every bag Of cement you
should have three bags of sand and
three bags of gravel.
Use concrete as soon as possible AT
ter it Is made. II brick bats or stones
are used instead Of gravel. they should
be broken up into small pieces
Be sure your posts are thoroughly
set before stretching your fence.

The Logical Site.

The business people of Aberdeen
should offer every inducement to
secure the location of the Monroe
County Agricultural High School as
near to the town as possible.
The student body and faculty of
such a school need to be near
church and other elevating inf1u-
ences. Every indueement ought to
be made to get the school located
near or in this town. Geographic
ally. socially and religiously Aher-
deem affords the logical site for the
school.
We understand efforts are being
made to secure it. We trust these
efforts will accomplish the desired
end and that our town, or some
place very near to it, will be selected
as the site.

Kaiser Might Have Remembered Being

The first American to meet the kali

McAdams, formerly marine recruiting

Sergeant McAdaIAs was attached
last December to the American en-
bassy in Paris as special courier to
thu American legations in Brussels
ami The Hague after serving at Cha
teau-Thierry.

side of the back. The side pieces are
pointed at the bottom with pockets
that are also pointed and shirred
across the top, the shirring forming
a narrow standing frill There is
narrow turnover collar and deep cuffs.
The suit at the right is as plain as a
serge suit but Is, nevertheless, a smart
model. The skirt, with Overlapped
seams at each side, begins narrowing
toward the bottom just below the hips.
Rows of buttons, covered with taffeta,
are set on these overlapped seams, ter
minating about eight inches above the
very narrow hem. Covered buttons
finish the sleeves and ornament the
lower part of the coat fronts and
narrow sash, made of the silk, is fin
ished with tassels. The crepe de chine
collar and vestee are in light beige
color.

II anything were needed to foster
the success of the separate skirt, that
thing has come to the front, in the
lovely Russian blouse of georgette
crepe, or other material, which has
been brought out for the summer sea-
son. 1t is an aristocratic garment, very
graceful, and at it's loveliest in crepes
and other sheer fabrics. But certain
of the new weaves in silk are running
close second TO the sheerer materi-
alt. With few of these blouses one
may face the summer with confidence.
The separate skirt of white satin, or
other fabric, and the separate skirt of
black satin make the right background
for these Russian blouses, having suf-
icient class and character of their
own. Provided with these one may
use all sorts of waists and bIouses to
make combinations that result in dress
suitable for any hour of the day or
evening Then there are the utility
skirts of sturdy cloth fabrics and the
sports skirts that are so useful for oc-
casions where one must be smartly but
not formally dressed.
A very attractive model for a cloth
skirt appears at the left of the two
