Soil Surveys Valuable
 To Farmers and Others


 Are you thinking of buying a farm? Maybe you are purchasing one for the first time, or perhaps you are selling your high-priced acres ir the corn belt and reinvesting in cheaper lands in another State. In either case there is very helpful companion you can take with you on the inspection trip-a soil survey report of the region you are going into, prepared by the Bureau of Soils, United States Department of Agriculture, in cooperation with State agencies.
 An Unbiased Counselor.
 It is counselor whose advice is absolutely unbiased. Its judgment is not only in black and white, but in connection with the report is col ored soil map. This consists of a base, showing the salient natural features of the area surveyed, and the towns, houses, roads, railways, and other artificial features. The various areas of the different types of soil are outlined and colored.
 Ordinarily the survey covers a single county. A surveying party, consisting usually of two men, visits every part of the chosen area, trac- ing and locating the soil boundaries, taking samples of the soil and of the subsoil to a depth of 3 feet in the West and to 6 feet in the far West. They identify the various types of soil, so far as may be done from field examination. The work is re- vised by inspectors, who visit the areas from time to time, and is finally passed upon by committee, who make certain that each soil is proper ly named.
 There are in the United States 3,O43 counties. Detailed surveys have been completed thus far in 926 counties-in this count have been included few areas, each cov- ering only part of a county or parts of several counties. The total extent of these surveys, 547,733 square miles, is equal to the com bined areas of Great Britain, France, and the German Empire before the war. In addition to the area sur vey in detail, about an equal extent of country has been covered by re- connoissance maps, the two together representing one-third the area of continental United States, and very much more than one-third of the arable lands of the Nation. Before buying ? farm it would be we'll to inquire of the department whether or not it had made a survey of the locality. If so, and the report has been published, it may be had for the asking.
 - It may be that in deciding to buy a definite type of agriculture has been determined upon. Some ques- tions will arise. Where can land best suited to that type be found? Upon what soils can rice growing be safely and proftably undertaken, or the production of tobacco of the various kinds be followed, or the raising of hogs with alfalfa pasture as feature in their management be engaged in?
 Perhaps you would establish a commercial peach orchard in Geor-

Invaluable Coatino for Tubes.

In the process of J. Marcusson, resinous coating is given tubes or hol- low bodies of cement, concrete or nor, tar by action of formaldehyde on phenols or other like compounds. The coating gradually becomes insOluble on exposure to air, and is thus given re- sistance to the action of mineral or fatty oils.

inists who are fond of dressing in
extreme feminist fashion.
At one time they we're marked
women upon the streets, and their
costumes were considered bizarre
because of the loud colors Of their
smocks, their corsetless effects,
bobbed hair and sandals. However
recent editions of the flapper and
other butterfly types stole their
thunder, coming out in colors that
are loud to the point of thunder
BUSINESS.
They have also adopted hair bob
bing and corset disdaining tactics,
so that now the extreme feminists
who believe themselves TO be the
intelligence of their sex are hard
put to it, to distinguish them
selves sartorially from the frivol-
Gus and lightminded.
Another group of women, be-
cause of their activities in public

dresses in mannish clothes is an
ANTI-suffragist.
She is Miss Mary Kilbreth, pres
ident of the Association OP-
POSED to Woman Suffrage. Her
clothes are but the outward sign
of the severity and ruthlessness
with which she fights every meas
ure that women propose.
But, we must admit, that the
style of dressing Miss Kilbreth has
adopted is distinctly becoming. She
is a large woman, one who would
always be termed handsome. She
has large regular features. Her
sailor hat sets off to advantage
her fine eyes and well-modeled
nose. The severe lines of her suit
but emphasize the erectness and
poise Of her figure.
While most of the contemporary
lady politicians are dressing like
the general run of women, women
in general have adopted many Of
the sartorial sanities peculiar to
the suffragette and the feminist.
The National Woman's Party is
largely composed of extreme fem
