DAIRY
FACTS
DISPoSlNG OF MILK SURPLUS
Conditions Likely to Exist in Well
Developed Dairy Districts
During Summer.
(Prepared by the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture)

(Prepared by the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture.)
For the first time since the begin.
ming OF the World war there is deyel.
oping in this country a surplus Of
milk, according to reports recently
received by the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture. Specialists of
the department state that this condi.
tion probably will be only temporary
during the flush" of the season, and
that it is most apparent in well-de-
veloped dairy districts. 1t may con.
tinue during the summer months, but
Is expected to adjust itself by fall,
when demand will overtake the sur
plus Of supply. The situation is large.
ly due to the falling off in the demand
for milk in the manufacture of con-
densed products, milk powders, casein,
and similar products, for which there
was a large export outlet.
The department points out the ad.
visibility of using as much milk as
possible, in fluid form and otherwise,
as a human food. Within the last
generation an increased knowledge of
the value Of milk in the diet has re.
suited in an almost doubled per cap.
ita consumption of milk, and con-
sumers who purchase milk freely
thereby encourage production. This
is believed to be the best safeguard
against a milk shortage and high
prices resulting from the withdrawal
Of dairymen from the business during
periods of large production and low
farm prices for milk.
But when the limit Of human utill
zation is reached dairy producers nee
essarily must decide how to dispose
of the remainder. In many cases this
will be a decision between selling
whole milk, selling cream, or even to
use a moderate quantity of whole
milk for feeding, especially to young
animals. In any event, a more liberal
use of milk on farms should reduce
the surplus, even though not solving
the problem entirely.
AS a guide to persons deciding to
utilize surplus milk as a live stock
feed, the department makes the fol.
lowing recommendations, which may
be supplemented with literature is.
sued by the department:
Milk from dairy herd which is not
definitely known to be free from tu-
berculosis should be scalded before
being fed, An ordinary feed cooker
is a practical means for sealding milk.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN

Knitted suits and capes are in a
good deal of evidence.
Cut-outs of leather form the trim
ming for many of the new hats. They
are found most often in white or blue
hats.
Tucking is a prominent feature in
summer styles and is just as promi-
nent in cloth coats as in frocks of or
candle or voile.
Black hats trimmed with waxlike
flowers, such as camelias and mag
nolias, are repeated many times dur
ing a promenade down the avenue.
Citron, or lemon yellow, is used for
frocks for the late spring and sum
mer. 1t is not a becoming shade to
most persons, but it is striking, al
ways.
Brown seems to be returning to
popularity for evening wear. 1t has
long been a popular color for day
wear but for some reason has been
Stunned for evening.
Imported homespun cloth is shown
in colors arranged in stripes for sport
wear. The foundation color is often
tan or string color and the stripes
are rose or blue or yellow or green.

WINTER HATS THIS SUMMER
Autocrats of Style Decree Velvet for
July and Straw for De-
cember Wear.

Will women wear their winter hats
during the approaching heated season
or will they wear their summer hats
during July and August? This is the
ruling question of the hour in mil
linery circles. Certain millinery in
terests have sent out an edict that
women shall wear velvet, felt and
duvetyn hats during July and August
and that the straw hats shall go into
the discard until the first snowfall.
Last season the milliners, abetted by
the masculine members of the COM
munity who never have been able to
see why women should wear fur and
velvet in the sweltering summer heat
and straw in January, imposed a
sensible hat regime on the women of
the United States.
For just one season the women for
the most part wore straw and net
hats in July and August OF course,
there were a few who persisted in vel
vet hats, with touches OF fur for trim
ming, but they were negligible, be-
cause, as a matter of fact, the women
couldn't find the new winter hats when
they began to look for them along
about the last of May. All they could
find were lovely lightweight creations,
wreathed with flowers or delicately
trimmed with light plumes. But now
they're back to all time summer hats

Crochet hats will be in evidence

FOR little TOTS
Fascinating FroCks of Taffeta,
Wolfe and 0rgandie.
Fabrics That Are Most Suitable for
Summer Garments for the
Children.

A charming coat made of black taf-
feta, with collar and piping in blue,
has Its waistline shocked under the
arm, using blue of the same shade
as the collar. The hat is of black taf-
feta, and blue trimmed to match the
coat. Printed voile makes a summary
little fTOck, and when it is finished
with plated ribbon to match the color
design in the material its very sim
plicity spells character. For the "lit-
tlest girl" dainty white organdie
having a surplice collar edged with
valenciennes, which is also used to
give finish to the underskirt of net,
is indeed picturesque. The skirt of
this pretty frock is cross hemstitched
in pink.
While hemstitching is always in
vogue, eyelet embroidery plays no
small part as a favorite trimming,
often being used for the entire gar
ment. With White organdie as back
ground, the scarlet eyelets serve to
make striking costume.

LINED SATIN COAT WRAP NEW
Dainty and Smart Looking
for Warm Weather.

Quite the newest thing is the satin
coat wrap lined throughout with white
or colored organdie. OF course, these
organdie Innings are detachable. They
are certainly dainty and smart looking
for warm weather wear. The fronts
fold back so that the garment really
has organdie covered revers; the collar
is a full ruffle or ruche of the sheer
cotton fabric. The sleeves are finished
with organdie cuffs, which are in real
ity a continuation of the sleeve lin
ing.
Lining and coat may be held to-
gether with very small snap fasteners.
Each section is neatly finished at the
various edges. White is more often
featured than a color, but one dainty
coat with lining Of rObin's-egg blue or
candle was seen recently. Lavender
is quite often chosen.
The satin coat need not be neces-
sarily black, but most of those shown
are in this Somber tone.
For summer evening wear the or
gandie-lined satin coat is particularly
practical as the lining can be kept so
clean that the lightest and filmiest of
frocks will not suffer by contact
with it.

In calf feeding it usually pays well
to feed one pound Of whole milk for
each ten pounds that the calf weighs,
for period of two weeks, and at the
end Of that time to change gradually
to an equal amount of skim milk. The
skim milk should be gradually in-
creased as the calf grows until about
10 pounds per day is fed at the end
Of three months. Feed the milk warm
and regulate the quantity according
to size and vigor of the calf.
For pigs three weeks old or more,
three parts of skim milk mixed with
one part of shorts, is useful in keeping
them growing. Skim milk may be fed
with corn and other hog feeds In va
rious practical combinations.
In poultry feeding both skim milk
and buttermilk are excellent feeds,
and can now also be purchased as a

A Hint About Hats.

The small, round turBans that cover
the forehead are not becoming unless
the hair is dressed quite far down
over the ears. Hats with turned-up
brims should only be worn by very
young women, unless the brim turns
up so sharply that the effect is ma
ture rather than youthful. Hats that
turn sharply back from the face should
only be worn by those with good pro-
files.

Fireman's Annual Ball
 Was We'll Attended

The annual ball of the Wrangell fire department, an event always looked forward to as one of the big affairs of the year, was given Saturday night. The hall was decorated with flags, helmets, ladders and axes and a three piece orchestra furnished the music. There was a large attendance and Arnt Sorset. who was floor manager, kept the dances going in quick succession, assuring ev. eryone good time. The iremen's dance is usually given on the 22d of February but it was decided to have it on the nearest Saturday to that date this year as conces- sion to those who do not care to attend dances early in the week, and the large number of dancers present proved the wisdom of this arrangement. The committee in charge consisted of Arnt Sorset, L. A. Olson, Ned Lemieux, Harry Coulter and Ellery Carlson.
