Muskogee, Sept. 21.-The Gore
Volunteers" having followed their
fractional colors until they were
furled after the democratic primary
election, won't follow an imitation
emblem waved temptingly in their
faces. A dozen or more Muskogee
democrats who were supporters Of
I. p. Gore in the primary race and
were members of the Gore Vol
unteers,' have letters from the Of
ficers of the Jefferson Club" ask
ing them to maintain their solid
front against Scott Ferris, democrat
ic nominee, and vote for J. w. Har-
reid in the coming general election.
1t is asserted that Republican money
is behind the Jeffersonian" scheme.
Senator Gore is himself in no wise
connected with the movement. but
has offered his services to the
national democratic headquarters to
speak wherever he may be assigned.

BOY SETS
PACE IN PATRIOTISM.

Going hungry for whole month
in order to save his money for
wounded American soldiers was the
method adopted by Jimmie" Oti, a
1O-year-old Japanese boy of Seattle,
Wash, to express his appreciation
for the work done by the fighting
men of his adopted country, accord
ing to report received yesterday at
Southwestern Division headquarters
of the American Red Cross in ST.
Louis.
Telling no one of his plan, Jimmie
did without his school lunches for a
month and dropped the pennies saved
into a box. When the box was
filled he turned it over to his teach
er, telling her the money was to be
given to the Red Cross to be spent
for the wounded service men.

TAFFETA silk is, by all odds, the
L most popular of the heavier
weights In silk fabrics, its only close
rivals, in the high regard of women,
being crepe de chine and %georgette.
It Is used for many of their belong
ings and for those of their little
daughters. For evening and afternoon
dresses 1t is the pre-eminent fayorite,
and its gentle rustic this summer liz
going to last as long as that of the
leaves does.
All the designers need do to make
salable frocks of taffeta is to follow
the mode and introduce a little orig
fnality In the details of finishing dec
Grafton. Two very excellent examples,
that are up to date and original, por-
tray an afternoon frock that is made
entirely of taffeta and are having a
decoration Of white yarn.
Navy blue in taffeta, with decoration
of white yarn makes an ideal dress for
midsummer, and it is this combination
that is shown In one of the afternoon
frocks patterned. White taffeta faces
the upper part Of the long tunic and
forms the cuffs. Blue and beige or
blue and tan make combinations as

ing an invitation to ride from a friend
who had just received her new ma

across the tracks, In the exact mid

we could do had the slightest effect on
It. While working we were ap.

pleasing, and ire very fashionable this
season. In this dress the tunic is set
on to a narrow yoke, which extends
above the waist and fastens to the
bodice. Two large buttons that re-
peat the colors used, call attention to
this feature. The tunic is laid in three
deep plaits at each side, giving a
widened hip line and revealing its fac
ing. Three-quarter length sleeves and
a Chinese collar are items worth mo-
ticing In the design.
Navy blue, black, or any of the fa-
vored colors in silk will look well in
a dress like the ruffie-trimmed model
pictured. It has three corded shir-
rings at the waistline where bodice
and skirt are joined, and a corded tuck
defines the hip line. Elbow sleeves
and a rolled collar high at the back
add two very important style details
to the design. The narrow frills on
the skirt have picot edges, and there
is a charming lace vest in the bodice
1t is the only detail of this dress that
is not made of the silk; even the
smart bow at the waist is fashioned
Of it.

COMMERCIAL ACREAGE
OF VEGETABLE CROPS
Compared With Last Year Mark
ed Reduction Is Shown.
Estimates Based on Reports Received
From Seed Growers-Increase Is
Indicated for Sugar Beet and
Garden Peas.

prepared by the United States DEPART
ment Of ~Agriculture.)
The prospective commercial acreage
Of vegetable-seed crops for 1920, CON-
pared with last year, shows marked
reductions in the acreage reported for
dwarf snap beans, all beet, carrot, let
tuce, onion seed, radish, spinach, sweet
corn, and tomato seed, while a slightly
increased acreage is reported for gar
den pole beans, cucumber, muskmelon,
watermelon, parsley, pepper, pump
kin, and Swede turnip seed.
These estimates are based on re-
ports received by the bureau of mar
kets, early In April from commercial
vegetable-seed growers and are as &C
curate and complete as 1t was possible
to obtain at that time.
The estimated prospective produc-
ton for 1920 Computed on the basis
Of the acreage reported and the av-
erage yield per acre for the four-year
period 1916-1919), compared with that
for 1919, is about 35 per cent less for
sweet cor and English turnip; so per
cent less for dwarf snap beans, celery,
parsnip, and squash; 60 per cent less
for cabbage and radish; and about
50 per cent less for garden and mangel
beet, carrot, onion seed, and spinach i;
while an increase is indicated of 20
per cent for sugar beet and garden
peas and so per cent for onion sets.
The estimated acreage and prospect
i've production for 1920 are more COM
parable with those for 1917. and the re-
auctions In acreage and production as
| noted should not be taken as an indica-
tion that the vegetable-seed growing
industry in this country is on the de-
cline from that of prewar years.

economical method of hauling hay ia

distance Is not much more than one
fourth of a mile. One man, or a boy.
with a good push rake and a team
used to the work will handle three
times as much hay as two men with a
small rack on a high-wheeled wagon.
Stacking hay with a push rake and
an oyershot stacker mounted on
wheels eliminates nearly all Of the
back-breaking work of the old pitch
fork method. With a yield of one to
one and a half tons to the acre, two
men on the stack can easily handle all
the hay brought in by three push
rakes, accomplishing a vast saving in
labor and hay over the %pitchfork
method. Another method not so good
but still vastly better than the pitch
fork method is a stacker equipment
with a double harpoon fork. The out
fit can be made at home and will cost
very little compared with the labor 1t
saves, but harder work is necessary
to get the hay or the stack than with
the overshot stacker.
When hay is to be baled from the
field, one man by working in the after
noon, can round up enough hay which
has been punched by push rakes to
keep the press going next morning un-
til the dew is gone from the hay in the
windrow. When the hay is not thus
rounded up the crew will lose two
hours or more on mornings when
there is a heavy dew.
Carelessness In setting the press
may result In loss of labor. When the
press is properly set two men can get
plenty of hay to it from the stack.

MAN is AFTER INFORMATION
After Listening to Much Sage Advice,
Bill Jones Wants One Matter
Cleared Up.

Our friend Bill Jones is a travelling
man and needs rest, but unfortunate
ly he doesn't sleep well. He has con-
suited a number of doctors in the vari-
GUS towns he visits, and being a sys-
tematic person has made a sort OF
digest Of the advice he has received.
1t sums up as follows:
Don't sleep on your left side, as
that creates a pressure on the heart.
Don't sleep on your right side, as
1t interferes with the action of the
right lung.
Don't sleep on your back, as that is
bad for the nervous system.
Don't sleep on your stomach, as that
causes a pressure bad for the diges-
ton.
"Don't sleep in a chair, as the body
cannot properly relax.
Bill wants to know If anyone can
tell him how to keep from falling over
when he sleeps standing up.

MAYHEM negligees come up for dis
Wv cussion, the temptation Is to
pick out these varied and fanciful ines
that reflect the costumes Of other
lands. But there are others Of Amer
lean design that are really better liked
by our own people and that merit the
preference shown them. They are
graceful, digniied, mor or less simple
garments, often developed in beautiful
fabrics. They reveal an appreciation
of what can be done with lovely colors
when designers are not restricted In
using them. 1t is in the realm Of neg
ligees that they al give fancy free
play and be more daring than even
evening dress will warrant and a little
Journey into the shops convinces one
that designers make the most Of this
privilege.

be easily mistaken for evening dresses.

MOORE ATTACKS
SOLDIERS .bOAUS
Says Relief Plan is, Unfair
to People at This
Time
OPPOSITION GROWING
Strongest Advocates Doubt Passage
of Measure Now, And Are Called
political Profiteers"

Opposition to any form of soldier
relief broke out with unexpected
strength during general debates in the
House yesterday. Indications are
that as a result of the flood of pro-
tests against. increased taxation, the
opponents of the bonus are gaining
in numbers rapidly every day.
Representatives Ackcrman (Rcp0,
Of New Jersey; Sisson (Dem.l, of Mis-
sissipi, and Moore (DemD, of Vir-
ginia, came out with bitter attacks
against any bonus at this time. All
pointed out that serious consequences
to the country might arise. Repre-
sentative Wood (Rep.), OF Indiana,
strongly opposed the land settlement
features Of the measure recently
given tentative approval by the ways
and means committee declaring that
it was nothing more than an attempt
to put over a huge reclamation prof.
ect under the guise of soldier relief.
At present, no one is pressing ac-
tion on the bonus question, and it is
probable that the revised bill may not
be reported before the recess for the
political conventions. Some OF the
strongest bonus advocates now are
beginning to doubt if any bill can be
passed.
Mr.. Moore in his speech attacked
those advocating the bonus for po-
litical advantage as political profi-
teers.''
Il see nothing il the measure to
commend it. and | cannot give it my
support" he said. Believing it TO be
against the public interest-the en-
tire public, but primarily the ex-scr-
vice men-if l were to support the
measure to gain some personal adyan-
tage or keep silence for that purpose,
| ! would be nothing more than a pcli-
teal profiteer.
"If this measure should be adopted
no member of this House, whether
leader or follower. should ever stand
here again and advocate economy and
reduction of taxes. The leader Of the
majority will be estopped to do so,
and the estoppel will apply to all OF
US. We will only be able to claim
feebly that we are for such policy
when it happens to be along the line
of least resistance
