Says That Baruch Wrecked the First
 Economic COnclave

Atlantic City. Jan. 28.-Magnus w. of Boston, who was sec. retary of the employers group of President Wilson's first industrial conference at Washington, in Octo- Der. speaking here today, charged that Bernard Baruch wrecked the conference.
 'Paruch had the public group in his vest pocket" the speaker de- clared."I am convinced, that when he moved to defer action upon la bor's proposition, that the confer ence should arbitrate the steel sit uation at the point when it probably would have been flatly rejected, Baruch killed the conference.
 "Why did he do it? I don't know there were all kinds of political rumors in circulation to the effect that the labor vote must not be cs- tranged."

WOMEN, HERE IS
 A MONEY SAVER

Save five to ten dollars quickyl by dry cleaning everything in the home just as easy as laundering. You can dry clean suits, coats, waists, silks, laces, gloves, shoes, furs, draperies, rugs, mems clothes-everything that would be ruined by soap and water.
 Place a gallon or more of gaso- line in a dishpan or wash boiler, then put in the things to be clean ed and wash them with Solvite soap. Shortly everything comes out looking like new.
 Nothing fades, shrinks or wrin- kles. No pressing needed. Do not attempt to dry clean with Solvite soap. This gasoline soap is the secret of all dry cleaning.
 A package of Solvite soap con- taining directions for home dry cleaning costs but few cents at any drug, grocery or department store. Dry clesa away from flame for out of doors. adv.

THE Egyptian and the Chinese in
Il spiratiOn in fashions have made
themselves conspicuous; the Egyptian
in dinner and evening gowns, and the
Chinese in suits. Both are represent
ed in millinery displays along with
head dresses that have been pattern
ed from the headwear of other coun-
tries, far and near, so that anyone
can acquire a head dress that will
accentuate either the Chinese or
Egyptian flavor in a costume.
The Chinese suit model was intro
duced early in the season, and a dar-
ing little cOolie hat, with q queue Of
plated ribbon trailing from it's crown,
was shown with it, 1t made a great

commercial onion districts of the
Northern states. where the use Of sets
or seedlings is impractical, advantage
is taken of the fact that onion smut
can be controlled by the application of
a solution of formaldehyde in the fur
row with the seed. Since the young
onion seeding is susceptible to the
disease for only short time. it is nee
esSary to use only enough of the dis
infectant to keep the fungus in check

| Daratus for applying the formaldehyde

seeder. Such an attachment is illus
trated and described in detail in Uni

sent to any applicant upon request.
Care Necessary in Applying.
Great care should be used in apply
ing this treatment, since too strong a
solution will prevent the onion seed
from terminating, while too weak
solution will not hold the fungus in
check. Repeated recent experiments
conducted by the department of agri-
culture In the Racine (Wis) district |
have shown that 200 gallons per acre
will give the most satisfactory results
and that there is no advantage in this |
case in using stronger solution than |

is serious objection to using this |
amount of liquid, because of difficulty |
of application, the quantity may be |
reduced to 100 to 80 gallons, but in
this case a stronger solution should be
used 1.-TWO pints OF formaldehyde to
sixteen gallons of water). Raising the
strength of the solution beyond this

Replies 10 inquiries addressed to

that few in industrial centers, par

10 to 80 per cent less seed than last

shortage of labor on truck farms
Compared with normal conditions be-
fore the war, the reduction in these
Eastern centers ranges from 10 to 45

On the whole the sales to home gar
deners seem to be larger than those of
last year, ranging from per cent

Onion smut is caused by fungouS
parasite which lives in the soil and
when once introduced, spreads slowly
to adjoining areas. In the spring, at
the time when the onion seeds are
terminating, the smut spores, or seed
bodies, also terminate and infect the
young seedlings, causing brown to
black elongated blisters within the
scales or leaves, which often split
open, exposing the powdery black
masses of spores Affected leaves
usually are slightly thickened and
often curve downward. Many of the
young seedlings are so heavily at

five weeks after termination. Others
