Every woman who makes garments
for herself longs for dress form, If
she does not already possess one, and,
Ii she does, she regards it as one OF
the most necessary pieces of sewing
equipment that she has. 1t is very
difficult to fit oneself. When the arms
are moved to change a pin or bas-
ting which needs adjusting, the fit OF
the whole garment is changed, and
the filter does not know where the
right place is for the seam or the trim
ming. A dress form or Betty, as it
is often. called, does away with this
difficulty, but because Of the expense
of the commercial ones few women in
the past have felt they could afford
to own one.
Garment making clubs are among
the most popular of the many organ
lied by the home demonstration agents
who are sent out by the United States
Department of Agriculture, and their
members are learning easier and bet
sion workers soon discovered that the
farm woman who attempts to do part
or all Of her own sewing-and the ma
jority Of them do-encOunters the
most difficulty in fitting the garments
and adjusting the trimming. What
she needs is a dress form, and since
dress forms are beyond the means of
the larger number, the home demon
stration agents had to set their wits
to work and invent a homemade sub
stitute.
Kinds of Dress Forms.
Today thousands of these home
made dress forms are in use in the
rural and small town homes of this
country. In Merrimac county, n. H.,
IL communities have organized them
selves, for the purpose of making
dress forms. This means that the ma
jority of women in that county will
have one of these conveniences.

At present four kinds of dress forms
are being used. The first is the most
expensive, and is made with COM
mercial dress form and lining to fit
all the lines of the wearer's figure.
The lining is adjusted over the dress
form, and stuffing is put in between
the lining and the form until the lin
ing is tightly filed.
Another variety is made by stuffing
a tight-ftting lining with excelsior,
cotton, or some like substance. This
is not as satisfactory as it might be,
for great care must be exercised to
give the dress form the right lines and
it loses it's shape more or less rapidly.
A third method is to cover a tight
fitting lining, while it is on it's owner,
with plaster of paris; this is allowed
to harden, and the whole is then care
fully removed. The lining should have
an opening down the front. Stufing
is then put in until it is firm.
Most Satisfactory Beetles.
The most satisfactory homemade
BEETLES, however, are made with
gummed paper. This variety costs
less than a dollar, and is said to give
as good satisfaction as one which
brings $40 across a counter. They
are made by pasting two thicknesses
of gummed manila sealing paper on
tight-ftting undervest while on the
prospective owners figure. When the
gum has dried, the jacket is removed
by Sitting down the back and front.
These halves are then put together
again with gummed paper. The gen.
eral effect is that of heavy papier-
mache form. One of the best features
of a homemade betty is that it is
an exact duplication of the woman's
own form.
The dress form means a real saving
in money as well as time and patience
to every woman whether she is max
ing new clothes or making over old
ones.

RICE FLOUR USED TO
GET BAKING VARIETY
Suggested for Making Various
Breads and Cakes.
Not Suitable Alone on Account OF
Lack of GIuten-Excellent Substl-
tute for Wheat in Making
WaffIes and Cookies.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
Rice flour may be used in various
kinds of breads, cakes and cookies, the
United States Department OF Agricul-
ture suggests. Because of the lack OF
gluten, rice flour alone is not suitable
for making bread, but bread of good
texture may be made from mixed
wheat and rice -four. Rice flour is also
an excellent substitute for wheat in
waff1es and certain kinds of cookies
and cake.
Rice Flour WaffIes.
Ia cups rice -four 11s cups milk
/ teaspoon salt tablespoons melt
teaspoons baking ed fat

Sift the dry ingredients together and
add them slowly to the milk, beaten
egg yolks and melted fat Fold in the

waff1es in hot well-greased iron.
Rice-FIour Coconut Drop Cookies.

spoonful on a creased baking sheet,
and bake for 15 minutes in a moderate
oven.
Sponge Cake.

q cup sugar q cup rice flour
1 tablespoon hot wa IL teaspoons bak-

Combine the ingredients in the order
in which they are listed and bake the
cake as a loaf or in muffin pans
This cake may be used as it is or as
the basis for many desserts. Baked in
q thin sheet, spread with soft jelly and
rolled, it makes delicious jelly roll.
1t may be served with a sauce like cot
tage pudding, or it may be baked in
layers and put together with custard
filling for a Martha Washington pie,
or used for a shortcake with fresh
fruit between the layers.
