 if woman can weave 20 yards
 of cloth in . week, and linen is
 eiqht dollars yard, how much
 can a woman earn m month.
 NEW YORK-Here's way to make the high cost of clothes fight the high cost of living.
 The arts of spinning and weaving are being revived by the Society for the Revival of Household Industries and Domestic Arts at 53 East Forty fourth street, New York.
 Farmers wives should get our their spinning wheels, for prices Of textiles were never higher says Will liam Jay Johnson, a member of the advisory board of the society. Chan nels of selling will be opened up and shops will buy everything in the way of handspun and hand-woven tex tiles"
 Mrs. Agnes Murray, a farmers wife of Landing, N. l., is one who is heed- ins this advice. WindbloEdi she reached the rooms of the sc<fety in a state of enthusiasm. Sh@efiad found spinning wheel for her industry about the scarcest thing in Manhat- tan IS spinning wheel, it seems. After d dreary tramp extending over three days the elusive wheel had been captured. as Mrs. Charles Baker of Succasunna, N J.. had made her loan of her own historic heirloom.
 Satisfactory Salary
 Now l am ready to spin" empha- sled Mrs. Murrayz. Hereafter spin ming is to be my business: for my eight-ycar- old daughter must have an education and travel My object is 10 earn money by teaching the shut ins how to spin.
 A woman can weave from 20 10 25 yards of cloth in week and earn a satisfactory salary when linens are selling at sS a yard If she sows her own flax, as I have on our farm of three acres. she can earn more-that is by going through the whole circle of endeavor from the harvesting and the bleaching of the flax to the woven cloth as did our ancestors. I plan weaving all our own clothes, including my husbands new woolen suit"

 Up to less than 100 years ago America spun all of it's own linens and woolens on spinning wheels and wove them on hand looms. Now that it is almost impossible to buy linens at any price, and woolens are expensive, the old industries of our grandmothers
