Illustration from farm on which both

ample has just been brought to the
writer's attention of the comparative
cost Of growing corn and oats on
Minnesota farm. II Is furnished by
Albert Inner, a well-known farmer In
Cottonwood county. MIMI, in m ar
ticle which appeared In the Cotton

Mr.. Inner says: II had curiosity
to know how much II would cost to
raise an acre of oats and corn. To
find out kept account, during the
year, Of the time required and the
cash expended to grow the above men,
toned crops" His figures show that
1t cost him 40 to grow an acre Of
corn and $1S.13 Ia to grow an acre Of
oats, or a difference Of $500 an acre
In favor Of oats.
Provided the respective crop Yields
are not altogether out Of proportion to
the cost of growing the crop, this
seems to be a good argument In favor
Of growing oats. But to grow oats
successfully II Is not necessary TO use
$50 or $500 land. In western Canada
some of the best oat-growing land in
the world can be bought for about $50
an acre. On this land good yields and
a high quality of grain Is Obtainable.

TN THE making Of dress accessories
L ribbons appear to have eclipsed all
otheS materials. Everything from
hats To shoes and from indies to
wraps looks to ribbon for adornment
and, besides being used for making
garnitures, II plays part In the con
struction of many garments. To begin
at the beginning i'm ribbon accessories,
Is to begin with sashes. There is a
world OF them to consider from the
simplest bands of the narrow fash
lonable two-toned, picot-edged ribbons
that have decked sheer summary
frocks, to gorgeous and intricate AZ
fairs in rich MORE or brilliant brocade
that are elaborated into bOdices and
draperies. There are sashes for att
prnoOn and evening gowns and there
nre sashes for street gowns. all as diff
fcrent IN character as the frOcks them
selves are. There are sashes that are
prolonged into trains and others that
become draperies for skirts or aspire
into bodices, with the aid of malines
or net or lace. Frocks are really
merely lovely back grounds for these
ambitious efforts of the accessory de-
signer.
An affair of this kind claims consid-
Grafton In the group of sashes pic
tured. This eXtravagant and ingenious
arrangement consists of an Overbodice
and girde which becomes ripple of
plaits over the hips and blossoms into
loops and four hanging ends at the
back. Two long ends reach the bottom
Of the skirt and are edged with frills
of narrow lace. These and the two
shorter ends are rounded. The filmy
gown serves to set off this elaboration
of the sash into the most important
feature Of the costume. 1t would be
effective in any of the lovely colors
used for evening dress.
A much simpler and more popular
sash Is made Of wide, soft and plain
satin ribbon. 1t Is adjusted about the
waistline In a crushed girdle that is
brought twice around and raised at
the left side. 1t is necessary to stay
a girdle OF this kind with wire or
some other support. 1t Is finished at
the back with two loops and two ends
and over its fastening ut the side, a
spray Of small roses takes up the color
of the ribbon and repeats 1t In many
delightful tints.
A description of sashes for evening
frocks might go on indefinitely. there
are SO many Of them In such varied
arrangements, but their growing i'm
portance in tailored frocks cOmpels
attention. For these there are fine
tailored sashes like that pictured In
the group shown here, and others,
less staid. This one Is made Of black
satin ribbon folded and arranged into
two loops and one looped end. The
folds are tackled to place. These tail
Ored girdles and tailored hat orna-
ments are very interesting and design
ers find It worth while to specialize
In making them.

Considering the comparatively short
time that the automobile industry has
had TO get back into the full swing OF
production. the 1920 models are excel
lent examples OF products OF new APP
pcsrance and changed detail Few
makers. indeed, have not taken ad-
vantage OF the opportunity TO change
the dress OF the car by mounting a
new body, and a good majority have
gone into the smaller details OF the
body and chassis and made every i'm
provenent possible without seriously
interfering with production. II Il
were not for the pressure OF orders
and the desire to avoid interruption
OF factory routine, we should see on
the market now a far greater number
OF really new chassis designs. AS the
situation stands We have a fair num-
Der OF really new chassis. with the
majority much improved though re-
tanning the same essential units. The
next three months. however, will see
more totally new designs on the mar
ket than any six months during the
past three years.
There are more sixcs on the mar
ket. fewer fours. and, II we anticipate
certain new models to come, we also
have more eights. These cars. taken
as a whole. are slightly smaller than
they were last year: they show a
greater variety OF body designs: they
are higher In price. and weigh a trifie
more though showing the same horse
power and gear ratio. There are more
disc and wire wheels with tires of
smaller diameter. Carburetion and
manifolding. chassis fabrication. valve
gear and universal joints have been
given major consideration. There are
more cars with unit power plants
more with disc or plate clutches, and
springing has been gone into more
thoroughly. Briefly. we have a very
good attempt at a postwar produc-
ton car. though the coming year will
see progress accelerated to a greater
degree than during the last twelve
months.
In every case prices are higher,
averaging more than a $3.50 increase.
But this Is not all, as II is expected
that the present average price of
S2.440 will within n few months be
500 higher. Many factors have en-
tered to interfere with production.
and though the demand has eased
somewhat since four months back.
the ratio of demand to supply has
changed but slightly. AS the new
year progresses IT does not seem like

NEWEST AIR BOAT
Carries Three Passengers in
Mahogany Cabin-Built by
N. J. Concern.

The limousine has gone up In the
air, judging by the report of the
Aeromarine Plane and Motor Com
pany. Keyport, N. ]. They have made
a flying boat unique In its combina-
ton OF safety, comfort, and service.
1t is on exhibition at the aeronautical
show in New York
The aeromarine Limousine is known
as "50-B-2." and is ee-passenger
flying boat with an estimated speed
OF seventy-five miles an hour. The
passengers sit side by side back of
the pilot. inclosed in a limousine-like
cabin with graceful, streamsline
curves. The roof Is built as a solid
part OF the hull and consists of trans
parent celluloid sheets set In strong
frames. so that the view of the pilot
and passengers is unobscured.
The cabin Is finished in blue leather
and polished mahogany, and one has
the impression of being seated in a
beautiful sedan. As a matter of fact,
this Is true. but instead of wheels
this sedan has wings. 1t is fitted up
with all the comforts Imaginable that
would be OF use to an aerial tourist.
There are no wires or pulleys In any
way encumberinG the comfort of the
passengers.
This new aspirant for aerial
honors is fitted with an eight-cylin-
der "'V'' type motor Of 150-horsepower.
The motor is set between the wings
some distance behind the cabin. The
gasoline tank has capacity sufficient
to carry the boat approximately $50
miles.
One wotbd naturally ask II there
was much demand for such purely
pleasure aircraft. The answer given
by the best Judges of seronautics
states that the demand for aeroplanes
for pleasure purposes is increasing
constantly. and that the car with ca
pacity for only ono occupant is not
looked upon with favor any more
than II would be in automobiles.
Two to three capacity Is
the desired space usually asked for
by those seeking flights for pleasure.
There Is no telling what this all will
lead to, but II Is a development Of the
flying game one little dreamed of
ten years ago.
