@ UMMERTIME sets many lovely
~ scenes as backgrounds for the
summer girl, or anyone else who takes
these backgrounds into consideration
when choosing her frocks. For most
of us, practical clothes for this work
nday world In which we find ourselves
are as important at least as those that
are decorative, and it happens that
the ginghams, chambrays, percales and
other dependable cottons that make
our frocks for work have attractions
equal to those that make the dresses of
our leisure hours. Special designers
plan these dresses on lines that prove
as charming as any others.
But the business of living requires
us to have frocks for play and leisure,
and summer brings with it the crisp,
diaphanous stuffs that belong to it
alone. Organdie and dotted swiss have
their day under the skies of summer,
and she is wise who makes the most
of it. These materials come in the
most exquisite and flower-like color
ings and In white that looks as cool
as snow; they are within the means
of everyone and the easiest to make
up neatly. The pretty models, as
shown in the picture, are very simply

smiled very funny COW smile.
Her big eyes looked at some of the
other cows and she said:

So very slowly the cows got up and
came over by Mrs. Cow, and listened
to the story she had to tell.

milk that we give is given to the city

Il don't know that should actually

But we give the milk away, and
then the milk is sold to the city peo-
pie.
'Of course we shouldn't expect to
be paid for the milk we give, as wa
are given board and lodging (Which is
very apt to be out-of-door lodging)
in return for the milk we give.
Il am not complaining when speak
of the out-of-door lodging, for we usu-
ally like that kind best.
"And we are given excellent board
and lovely meadow for our home.
"Now, there are number of US on
different big farms who give this milk
IN return for board and lodging. Then
the milk is sent to the city and the
city people have it left in bottles by

But the joke is that the milk COM

The grapevine looper, a green worm
about an inch and half long, some
times destructive to garden and arbor

some damage to vineyards in the
Chautauqua belt along Lake Erie. The
worm ordinarily feeds from early IN
June until the middle Of July.
1t may be killed b. spraying. A
solution of 11s pounds of powdered
arsenate Of lead TO 80 gallons of

COWpEAS CHOICE
FEED FOR STOCK
Crop Is of Great Importance for
Selling, Hay, Silage and
Pasturage.
USEFUL TO INCREASE HUMUS
Farmers Bulletin Points Out Different
Methods of Growing and Harvest
ing II for Each of Its Vari-
Gus Uses.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Few crops can be utilized in as
great a variety of ways as cowpeas.
For centuries they have been grown
for human food in Asia, Africa and in
the Mediterranean region of Europe.
In this country, particularly in the
southern states, the crop is common
ly used for this purpose, but its most
important use by far is in the feeding
of live stock, being utilized for soiling,
hay, silage and pasture. 1t is also OF
great value as a green-manure crop to
increase the humus and nitrogen con-
tent of the soil upon which it is grown.
These are points brought out in Farm
erS' Bulletin 1853, "Cowpeas: Utiliza-
tion," recently published by the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture,
which discusses not only the utiliza-
ton of the crop, but the methods of
growing and harvesting it for each of
its various uses.
Have High Food Value.
Cowpeas are not grown for seed
more generally because of the uncer-
tainty of the crop, the expense of har-
vesting and the comparatively low
yield obtained. In localities well suit
ed to production it will be found
highly profitable to grow cowpea seed
on large scale, especially if the best
machinery for handling the crop is
used. The seed has a high feeding
value, but is rarely cheap enough to
be used as feed. 1t can be stored for
a considerable length of time without
much danger of loss of vitality. AS it
is subject to attacks from insects, es-
pecially the cowpea weevil, the seed
produced in southern states should be
placed in cold storage, the bulletin
recommends.
Cowpea hay is an excellent forage
for all kinds of stock. Even the straw
obtained from threshing the peas for
seed is valuable stock feed. As a
rule cowpeas should not be cut for hay
before the pods begin to turn yellow.
The best quality is produced and the
hay cures most readily if the vines
are cut when most of the pods are full
grown and considerable part of them
matured. If cut before this stage the
vines are watery and difficult to cure.
while if left too late before cutting
there will be an unnecessary loss Of
leaves in handling and the stems will
be tough and woody. The hay is
somewhat difficult to cure. but with

them! They thought they could leave
cows alone and have their city life

various club activities, telling their
experiences and results, also form
part of the program.
The boys decided to enroll in pig
club this year and the girls to take
up sewing club work. A committee
has been appointed for each group to
secure new members. 1t is planned
to put on demonstration by each Sec
ton of the club at the state fair next
autumn.
The local leader of the club is q
rural teacher and the work is done
under the direction of the county
agent, who has already received re-
quests from other communities near
by asking how they could form sim
liar clubs. Such a club has the adj
vantage of interesting the boys and
girls of community in local prob
lens and will probably be the means
of encouraging them to remain in farm
work.

SMALL FRUITS IN ORCHARDS
Blackberries, Dewberries, Strawberries
and Grapes Generally Give Good
Returns.

Small fruits should have place in
every orchard. For the home fruit
supply, blackberries. dewberries,
strawberries, grapes and other small
fruits generally give a good account
of themselves, when planted on good
soil and given the proper attention.
A small area of land, set to small
fruits, win often bring in more
revenue than the rest of the farm, pro-
vided, of course, there is market for
the surplus fruits.

states were admitted, the first of
which was Idaho, so that during these
two years the manufacturers must
have been kept busy turning out new
flags with the proper number of stars.
Idaho is very mountainous and the
name is derived from the ShOshone
Indian word meaning 'gem of noun
tainS,"
The first white explorers were I'M
doubtedly Lewis and Clark on their
memorable trip in 1804-5.
Idaho was a part of Oregon terri
tory, which was jointly occupied by
British and Americans until the
Treaty of 1916 definitely turned over
to the United States the country south
of the 10th parallel In 1868 Idaho
was organized as territory, with an
area three times the size of the pres
ent state, as it included Montana and
part of Wyoming. The next year Mon
tana was set off for a territory by it
self, and in 1868 Wyoming was organ
lied so that in 1890 when Idaho was
admitted as the forty-third state of
the Union, its area was reduced to
SO, 1888 square miles. Even so it ranks
as the eleventh state in size.
The rapid settlement of Idaho was
due to the discovery of gold, the same
cause which so rapidly built up the
adjacent states. 1t was in 1882 that
gold was found at Occur dAlene in
the northern part of the state, and
miners Immediately flocked to the
state in great numbers. In fact, both
placer and quartz gold mines are
found in every county of the state,
and in addition, the lead-silver district
in Shoshone county is considered one
of the richest in the United States.
There was serious labor trouble in
the Occur d'Alene section in 1892 and
again in 1899, when martial law was
established until peace between The
miners and mine owners was effected.
Idaho is fifth from the end in the
list of states according to population,
and accordingly has but four presiden-
tial electors. But the state is devel-

THE story of WASH
!: !. ! !. !.
%I ~ ! ington the forty
/ nv AANM second state of the
Nh ENUnion, is tied up
NEl S&>K lSNwith two of our
Wy M Z.EPresidents. The first
NAa 8GCW is obvious, for 1t was
HIN1@ in honor of our first
President, George Washington, that
the state was named, as lasting me-
mortal to this great soldier-statesman
But the actual fate of this region was
due to President Polk, and formed the
main issue in his campaign for cleo
ton in 1914.
Previous to that time, the country
north of California and extending to
Alaska, which was then owned by
Russia, was called the Oregon terri
tory. Claim was laid to this region
by both Great Britain and the United
States as has been seen in the story
of Oregon. In 1875 when the boun-
Diary between Canada and the United
States was settled, this line was def
nitely placed from the Atlantic coast to
the Rocky mountains. But no agree
ment could be reached west of that,
and it was left under an arrangement
whereby this territory was to be joint
ly occupied by the British and Ameri-
cans.
Settlers from the United States be-
gan to come into the Northwest in
such numbers that the United States
felt that they should own this section,
which included the present states of
Oregon and Washington, and British
Columbia, through the right of possess
sion. Agitation In favor of actively
pushing our claims became so strong
that when Polk was nominated by the
Democrats in 1914, one of the main
planks in the party platform was the
famous one popularity called Fifty
four forty or fight" This meant that
the United States was determined TO
annex this territory as far north as
Parallel 81 degrees 40 minutes, which
was the lower boundary of Alaska, or
fight for its possession. Like many
party planks, this one was not fol-
lowed, although Polk was elected. In
stead in 1916 a peaceful settlement
was made with England on compro-
mise basis, which made the boundary
run along the 49th parallel, and thus
was added to the United States an
area equal to six times the size of
New York state.
In 1853 Washington territory was
separated from Oregon. 1t did not,
however, become state until 1889.
and then only after thirteen years PEE
tltioning for admission.
