Fashionable dressmakers are order
ing cottons in great quantities, for the
cotton dress will be the thing for the
coming summer, advises fashion cor
respondent in the New York Tribune.
A question one hears on all sides IS,
will they be less expensive than SILK
frocks? And the answer is, no. Cot
tons are fashionable again, so why
should they be?
StyIe creators have made many at
temps in the past to force the cotton
frock to the foreground, and although
they often were successful any success
that they have had is as nothing COM
pared to the avalanche Of orders for
the glorified cotton dress that is pouring
In to the fashionable dressmaking es-
Establishments. Its success far exceeds
the most sanguine hopes Of its spon-
sOrS.
Why should frocks made Of cotton
materials be preferred to those of
silk and chiffon, and why should this
style, brought out with trepidation-
as are most new styles-have so quick
ly become a rage?
1t is because cotton manufacturers,
recognizing the almost unheard OF
vogue of the silk. crepe dress, made
cotton materials that very closely re-
semble crepe de chine, crepe marc
cain and even georgette crepe, and
designers realized that the psycholog-
ical moment at which to launch a
new style is the moment at which the
fires of fashion that famed to white
heat are burning low and that the new
conner must to some extent carry the
appeal of the old favOrite.
Many New Weaves in Cotton.
Manufacturers of cotton novelties
are bringing out beautiful materials
in imitation of silk There is cotton
fabric called crepe roumaya, which
closely resembles crepe marocain.
And there is an almost perfect imita-
ton of georgette made from finely
spun and crimped cotton yarns of
delicacy equal to that used in the
silk georgette.
In the makeup of these new cotton
dresses they are as elaborate as silk.
Many of them have drawn work of a
distinctly new character, which in
cludes an embroidery in vari-colored
cotton yarns. Others have a stuffed
applique trimming in the form of fruits
and flowers. Still others show clever
combinations of two colors.
The adapting of materials that we
have known for many years to new
modes always has required the at
tention of the cleverest people in de-
signing. Few of us realize the amount
of thought underlying a seemingly
simple style. In the cotton dresses we

Animal Is Most Efficient Money Maker
4 on Farm and Is Entitled to Good
Treatment.

e. A. Hanson, dairy extension spe-
cialist at University farm, renews the
inquiry, "Are you keeping-cows or are
they keeping you," in collection OF
feeding suggestions recently issued by
him.
"Put the COW to work." he says,
'.and she is the most efficient money
maker on the farm today. A COW pro-
ducing 25 pounds of per cent milk
daily makes one pound of butterfat
day, worth about so cents. This
cow needs rations and hay ana silage
which should not cost more than Is
cents daily, leaving IS cents daily
above the cost of her feed. Where can

chance. They are all capable Of doing
better when properly fed"

DANGEROUS EXAMPLES

IF THERE were no unfairness, no
1 injustice, no successful crookedness
In the world, everybody would succeed
without any trouble.
We should all tread the primrose
path straight to paradise, with no one
to bar our progress.
Incidentally our road would be made
so smooth and easy that we would be
q pretty poor crowd when we got to
paradise quite unworthy to partake of
it's delights, and utterly unfit for the
society which we should expect to lind
there.
1t happens, however, that the world
is fairly we'll filed with injustice, and
that crookedness is sufficiently preva-
lent to make it worth while to keep
our eyes open.
Also men succeed who ought not
to succeed, and by devices which
should send them to the penitentiary.
Such instances are exceptional, but
they occur often enough to be danger
GUS.
"A man engaged in a business which
interests almost everybody, recently
commented thus on one of his col
leagues:
Nobody takes his word-nobody
trusts him. He would cheat his own
mother Yet in spite of all that he
makes nearly a million dollars year,
and his business is one of the big
gest in the world"
Perhaps this man will meet the fate
he merits in time. Perhaps he will
not. There are a few rascals who
live and die prosperous.
But that is not an argument in favor
of rascality. It is not even proof
that rascality pays.
For where one rascal prospers
thousand are the victims of their own
crookednesS.
In this world are far more crooks
who could have succeeded had they
been honest, than honest men who
could have succeeded had they been
crooks.
Do not be deceived by the success

But, on the other hand, the simple
plodder, sincere in his effort to please
others, to present the truth pleasant
ly, in accordance with the accepted
usage of common sense, will, through
his sanely directed energy, climb to

The more you analyze success, the
stronger will become the conviction

to those in authority, the right of the
highway.
The result is that the men and
women who habitually do this, who

velop more easily their natural abili-

Paris Allows Great Latitude in Choice
of Materials and CoIors in
These Costumes.

The vogue for the cape Is evinced in
the many cape dresses and suits being
made for the Parisienne to wear at
resorts along the Riviera There is
great latitude in the choice of mate
rails and colors in these costumes.
Two contrasting colors or materials
may be combined in a costume, one
forming the lining of the cape and
also serving as a trimming. Again,
printed fabric may be combined with
plain one.
Gray cloth plaided in rust color is
used for d one-piece dress. Over
straight foundation of the plaid mate
rial two apron panels of plain gray
cloth are placed, one at the back and
the other at the front, the plaid being
allowed to show at either side. Wide
sleeves are of the plain material
cuffed with the plaid. The cape also
is Of gray cloth and ls lined with

not only have new ideas in the dresses
themselves, but in the materials, which
means double force back Of this move
ment.
One of the loveliest Of the new
French models is Of crepe roumaya
in a beige gray shade and trimmed
with embroidery in multi-eolors imi-
tating fruits and flowers: The dress
is finished with a beautiful girdle
made in a design exactly matching
the pattern of the embroidery. When
the frock is of printed crepe the CIR
die matches the design Of the fabric.
This is worth remembering, for if one
is to have simple cotton frocks made
at home they may be lifted out of
the commonplace by a girdle blending
with the color and design in the ma
terial.
Frocks Harmonize Surroundings.
Many women are ordering their cot
ton dresses with much the same idea

a country house or the awnings of a
sun room; that is, matching or blend
ing the colors with their surround
ings.
French tourists travelling to Algiers
and Tunis are ordering cotton frocks

copies of one model but in different
colors. These are known as garden

of Agricufture.)
Milk of ordinary quality held at rs
degrees Fahrenheit, a temperature not
uncommon in the summer, soured In
SO hours, while the same quality of
milk held at IS degrees kept sweet
for 80 hours, and at 40 degrees for
$50 hours. These results were OBJ
tanned in an experiment carried on
by the dairy division, United States
Department, of Agriculture, to deter
mine the effect of temperature on the
milk; and the results explain in a large
measure why milk which has not been
cooled on the farmland kept cold
often is sour when 1t arrives at its
destination.
The best and quickest way to cool
milk to 30 degrees Fahrenheit is over
a surface cooler. Use the coolest wa
ter available, and then set the cans
of milk in a well-insulated tank filled
with water below 40 degrees Fahren-
heit. A 10-gallon can of milk preceded
with water at 55 degrees Fahrenheit
and set in tank of ice water at 81
degrees Fahrenheit was cooled at 30
degrees in 20 minutes.
The use of surface cooler is es-
pecially necessary when the time be-
tween milking and shipping Is short.
If warm milk is run over surface
cooler, and then set in tank of wa
ter cooled with ice to 40 degrees
Fahrenheit or below, 1t should not be
difficult to cool milk to so degrees
within an hour after 1t leaves the cow.
Because preceding with a surface
cooler is not practiced and ice Is not
put into the cooling tank before the
milk, much milk reaches the shipping
station in summer at so high a temper
allure that it sours on the way to the
city.
On many farms the water used for
cooling milk comes from the general
storage tank or from spring. The
temperature of such water when 1t
reaches the cooling tank is much high
er than when it leaves the well or
spring. Well or spring water that has

when we swelter in furs in. July and
August and SILVER in chiffon stockings
in January. 1t is because they are
different and carry with them a fresh
appeal that women will receive them
enthusiastically. They are reminiscent
of colonial days, when the cotton frock
was very picturesque with its .ruff1es
and ribbons, it's full skirt and its tight
bodice. Then there is strong ele-
ment of informally about a cotton
frock which a silk one lacks. AL
though the former may be much gray
er in colOring and more elaborate IN
design, still we consider it less formal
than a simple silk dress.
Simple Stitches Worked in Threads.
One need not have evening dresses
Of cotton crepe deliberately embroid-
cred, and adorned with puffy flowers
such as many French dressmakers are
showing. They may be very simple.
One must do something in the way
of ornamentation, otherwise straight
line dress of cotton crepe will be too
closely related to an apron of the
house dress, but there are simple
stitches which may be done in beauti-
fully-colored cotton threads that will
go a long way toward lifting such a
dress out Of the commonplace AS the
new embroideries are in bold patterns
and done with very heavy threads, a
little of the work makes an excellent
showing, especially If the colors are
well chosen.
If you wish to follow the dictates
of Paris in jewelry, wear black and
white, black and green or either of
these colors singly. Striking black
and white effects are achieved through
let and onyx combined with pearls,
crystal, ivory or nacre. The black
haired Parisienne wears effectively
either pearls or jade. She does not
need the black ornaments for con-
trast.
Seen at q fashionable restaurant in
Paris were several dark-haired beau
ties wearing jade. One, who wore a
dress of green and black brocade, af-
fected long pendant earrings Of jade
and a string Of jade beads which
reached below her knees. Another,
whose dress also was evolved from
green and black brOcade, displayed a
hair band Of green velvet studded with
Jet beads, which supported long strands
of the black beads at one side.
Ivory and Jet in Combinations.
Ivory and jet are being shown to
great advantage in earrings and
matching chains. Long chains of this
combination have the round ivory
beads with oblong jet beads between
Others are of alternating large and
small beads, the former of ivory and
the latter of jet. Tassels of small
ivory beads and jet most effectively
finish the ends of these chains.

THE MIDDLE COURSE
BY Walter !;

IT'S safest to take the middle
L course.
When one is uncertain which course
is the right one when there are three
paths ahead, anyone knows that the
surest way to avoid long detour is
to take the one leading directly ahead.
The same rule applies to nearly ev-
erything one may set out to Go in life.
There lies ahead Of one in any en-
deavor three distinct pathways. One
may take a conservative. liberal or
a radical way to accomplish his ends.
Perhaps either one of the three may
bring, him to his goal without great
difficulties or disappointments. But
in this day the liberal course seems
to hold the greatest assurances Of sue
cess.
Certainly it always is best to make
sure that one chooses the right path.
Careful surveys are essential and one
should be able to read the signs

Grandpa suggested William
And grandma Benjamin;
Then went the list together
And then began again.
They dwelt awhile on Peter,
On Matthew, Luke and Mark;
They argued from the morning
Until the day grew dark.
They argued long and loudly
Until one fateful day
They quickly got together
