Girls Flocking
By Themselves

London-The dearth of men has
taught English women to appreciate
the company of their own sex.
The modern young woman is max.
ing her outdoor games and recreation
all-feminine. She no longer droops
and languishes for the support of the
lordly male when she play lawn ten
mis-, golf and hockey, nor when she
walks, picnics or swims.
This summer remarkable feature
at riverside and seaside resorts has
been the jolly parties of girls having
a good time ION their own" In by
gone years it wa scustomary for the
maid without opportunities of meeting
young men at home to make casual
male acquaintances and rely on them
for the success of the holiday. This
year girls are obviously reluctant to
place their trust in the many Toms,
Dicks and Harries who throng the
promenades in hopes of getting some
ONE response to their glad eyes.Such
exclusiveness is not attributed to a
dove of convention, but rather to the
increased wisdom and wariness of the
modern girl. Since the war she has
had plenty of occasion to realize that
there is a big element Of danger in
the making of chance acquaintance.
Many young girls have been murdered
by men with whom they went out
casually "just for the fun of the thing"
In most of the recent murder cases the
victims have been women.
Therefore, this summer the young
unattached girls have preferred to find
their fun in their own feminine COM
munity rather than risk a Irritation.
In the new era "hen" parties are
fiourishing. Women are making genu-
inc friends of each other. Men are
comparatively scarce, and inclined to
be "uppish," so girls are leaving them
out,

A Game to Play on
the Autumn Walk

There is a game that the Japanese
children play that may prove pleasure
able to the American girl or boy who
goes out into the autumn fields for a
tramp. AS you walk along gather
handsful of long grasses and keep
these with you until you come to a
esting place. Then while you rest
your weary feet before starting on
he homeward way, try this game that
our little Japanese cousins take such
delight in. ... ....
One child makes a loop of blade
of grass by holding the two ends in
is hand, a second child loops his blade
f grass throug this and the two chill
.dren pull. The child whose blade
breaks first loses and must give his
two pieces to the successful child
who in turn matches his blades of
rass with that of another child and
so continues to test it's strength until
breaks. When it does finally break
he must wait and give another child
a turn. The player with the largest
pile of broken grasses at the end of
he game wins.

Prevent Cholera
Outbreak From
Newly Purchased
Hogs


Farmers Of Pennsylvania are con-
stantly purchasing high casls hogs,
turning them loose with their other
hogs, Immediately upon receipt, and as
a result, in many cases suffer heavy
subsequent losses from hog cholera.
A Juniata Valley farmer, only recently
lost a number of registered hogs in
this manner.
The Bureau of Animal Industry,
Pennsylvania Department of Agricul-
ture urges that newly purchased hogs
be thoroughly disinfected and isolated
before they are placed in contact with
other swine. .rs
When hogs are received on a farm,
they should be given a disinfecting
bath and then kept for two, and better
still, three weeks by themselves. If
no diseases appear at the end of that
time, they can be given another dis
injecting bath and placed with the
other swine. The crate in which the
hogs are received should be thorough.
lly disinfected and all litter burned
Farmers are urged to write to the

Burn Garden
Refuse to Kill
Insects and
Disease

Clean up the back yard OF vacant
lot by burning all the dead foliage.
| This is the advice of the Bureau Of
Plant Industry, Pennsylvania Depart
ment of Agriculture, and this method
of disposing of the ghosts of the sea-
sons crops is recommended to, prevent
the spread of insect and plant diseases
in next years crops.
While the dead foliage may be
turned under and may add valuable
humus to the soil for next year, yet
the garden refuse, the stalks, leaves,
roots and rotten fruits and vegetables
are not as dead as they seem Their
own natural life is ended but they
often bear about them the insects that
have been pests in the garden, or their
eggs and these will live over winter
in the old plant remains, to resume
their activities next spring.
Not only do insects live over in this
manner, but many fungus parasites

leave their spores or other productive
parts on the dead stalks, roots and
leaves and these will pass the winter
there and start up fresh and vigorous
when the new crop begins to grow
next spring. Digging under garden
refuse may reduce these insect fungi
to some extent, but only the good, old
reliable bonfire can be depended upon
to make a satisfactory finish of them.
The Bureau of Plant Industry, Penn

will be glad to furnish information
regarding the control of the insects

Cleo Manufactures
Must Have Head-l
quarters in State

Manufacturers of oleomargerine To-
ated outside Pennsylvania, cannot
onduct a mail order business in this
tate, or ship their products directly
rom the factory to the consumer,
ven though the orders are secured by
a legitimate representative of the COM
any who has taken out the necessary
tate license. This is set forth in an
pinion rendered the Bureau Of Foods,
Pennsylvania Department of AgTicul'
ure by the State Attorney Generals
department.
A Baltimore firm sought to take out
a license in Pennsylvania in the name
of an agent located in this State and
hen fill the orders taken by this agent
irect from the factory. According to
he opinion, however, the firm will be
ompelled to maintain a branch in
his State, where all goods for dis
ribution in Pennsylvania are received.
The opinion set forth that the State
laws covering the sale of oleomarger-
inc are purely police measures to pro-
tect the public and that the act Of
Congress of May 9, 1902. gives the
State full right to carry out these po'
lice regulations in any manner it sees
fit.
BY shipping their goods direct to
the consumer from points outside the
State, the products would not come
under the supervision and inspection
of the Bureau of Foods such as is pro-
yided in the food laws of the State.
The opinion will have far reaching
effect and settles permanently ques-
ton that has been troubling the De-
partment of Agriculture for some time.
