In evening frocks, taffeta is at its best
and in the changeable weaves there
seems to be nothing that quite equals

goot-day to summer afternoons and
meets its fair rivals In evening frocks
without finding comparisons odious.
Changeable weaves in the high col
Ors are made up slmply-the simpler

1T is our belief that there should
be built in the wheat belt central ele-

where the individual or the co-operar
tive society could store grain and re-

the War Finance corporation loaned
$2,50O,0O0 to a Kansas cooperative
organization on such security. And

DON'T SPOIL YOUR CHILD'S
HAIR BY WASHING 1T

When you wash your child's hair be
careful what you use. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too mucn
alkali, which is very injurious, as it
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsifed
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. 1t is very
cheap and beats anything else all 10
pieces.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsi-
fed in cup or glass with a little
warm water is all that is required.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in. It makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor
oughly, and rubs out easily The

The Farm and the Farmer
BY William r. sanborn

his group had filled four silos last
week, one on each of his two farms,
and one each on the Grover Morgan
and David Weller places. Mr.. Hunt
says that one of his silos is a II x 81
structure, holding IT'S tons. while the
smaller one contains rs tons. Frank
Hodgin is in this ring and he also
has It's ton silo 20 be filled this
week. Harry Wright, Isaac Ramey,
and Carl Hartman belong to the
Whitewater ring, and the latter, now
living on the X. D. Cofield place, is
among those erecting new silos this
year. The Hartman silo is of cement
stave construction, of 12x45 feet di-
mansions.
Mr.. Hunt is cattle feeder, and
says corn is now getting into fair
shape for his use. He says that dairy.
men usually favor greener corn for
silage than do the feeders; but his
own objection to cutting the corn too
green is that it is watery and the
water contains a lot of acid. He
says, too, that their silo operations are
not to interfere with their showing al
the fair, or taking it all in and having
a good, sociable time.

tiles commission, declares his belief
that Kansas should construct and op-
crate elevators for the storage of Kan
sas wheat His belief is founded up
on his experience of three years of the
annual breakdown of the car service.
Mr.. Reed owns the Parsons Sun. in
which he says: Wheat is the princi-
pal cash crop of this state. Kansas
produces more wheat than any other
state-more wheat in fact than any
other similar area in the world; our
crop for the past five years, including
the present crop, aggregates 659, 0OO,-
600 bushels. This week wheat is SELL
ing from the farm at 10 cents to 80
cents a bushel, which is less than the
cost of production. The state cannot
continue to prosper with it's principal
grain production on this basis.
'The harvesting of the wheat crop
of this nation covers a period of about
100 days, but it represents food for the
world for Il months. While the wheat
is waiting to be ground into flour and
made into bread it must be stored
somewhere. These are the places OF
storage: the wheat stack, the farm
grainary, the country elevator, the
terminal elevator. the flour mill, the
flour storage warehouse

PoRK-EATiNc cAMPAIcN


A writer in the Farm Bureau Week
ly News Letter, says: "Au indications
are that hogs will reach a lower price
level this year than last, and that the
surplus pork production will be harder
ter" And for this reason he advo-
Gates an Eat More Pork" campaign.
He does not recommend that this
campaign be put on while it is 90 in
the shade; for fear of being mobbed.
He Is talking about the coming winter
and relates little story of a local
campaign put on in Missouri county
last winter. The experiment was tried
out in Livingston county and was
promoted by the farm bureau and
the county agent. So well did the
campaign pan out that County Agent
Forester believes that it should be
tried out in every hog raising county"
: Mr.. Forester says that the farm
bureau established retail meat mar
ket ito deliver large pieces, such as
hams, sides and shoulders, at low
price" The farm bureau loaned a
revolving fund of $500; hired farmer
to kill and dress the hogs, render the
lard and make the delivery of the
meat to the market 1t is further re-
lated that the pork was furnished
consumers at half to two-thirds of the
prices charged by the local meat
market men, until little later the
butchers came down to the same
price. The farmers market ran ads
in the three local papers for the four
winter months. The marketing was
inexpensively handled, and at the
same time the farmers received more
money for their hogs than could have
been obtained by shipping.
Sales Were Increased.
att was not our intention to make
money on our operations here" said
Mr.. Forester "On the other hand
there was practically no chance for
loss. One of the local butchers was
quite panicky when we started this
market, and made the threat that he
would break the concern. We sent
him word that it was broke to start
with and there was no chance for loss
in the operation. After the first
month the local butcher got 1t out OF
his head that his business was going
to be hurt, and some of the more fair
minded men could see that the fact
that meat was being advertised al
the time really increased their sales
We asked the county agents Of two
adjoining counties which had towns
about the size of Chillicothe to make
an investigation to ascertain whether
their butchers sold more meat than IN
previous years. From all information
obtainable both the county agents re
ported less sales in the winter of 1927
and 1922 than in previous years. Oul
butchers increased their sales"

WEATHER IN AUGUST
CAUSES DECLINE IN
CORN CROP ESTIMATE

The unusually hot, dry weather of
August together with some storm and
hail damage, caused a decline in the
Indiana corn crop of 100000 bushels
Tor the month, according to the month
ly report issued today by George G..
Bryant, statistician for the cooperative
crop reporting service for Indiana.
Some Of the other crops also show a
decline in condition but fruit crops
generally were not affected. The re-
port follows:
The corn condition throughout the
state is somewhat spotted, wide var
iauon existing even in the same
counties, with the state average at 80
per cent of normal on Sept. l. This
is points higher than for the same
date last year, and points below
Aug. condition. A total production
OF 177,782,00 bushels is indicated at
this time compared with 1S42S7, 900
bushels shown for August and 169,
$4,000 bushels harvested last year.
Bottom Land Good
Bottom land corn generally is very
good, but much of the crop on high
lands and sandy soil is badly fired and
not worth much as a grain crop. In
the northwestern part of the state con-
siderable storm damage is apparent
and in the east central part hail did
quite a bit of damage in connection
with the storm. Much of the crop will
be out of the way of frost in another
ten days of favorable weather but
some of the late planted will require
three to four weeks. Silo filling is
progressing very rapidly in most
places
The condition of spring wheat In
the state was 65 per cent of normal
at time of harvest and indicates a total
production of $4,000 bushels compared
with $4,000 bushels shown for August
and $4,000 bushels harvested last year
Oats 4e Per Cent Normal
The condition of oats in Indiana al
time of harvest was 40 per cent OF
normal and is probably the smallest
crop produced in the state in many
years. On this figure a total produc-
ton OF 100000 bushels is indicated
compared with 33,276,000 bushels
shown for August and 45,072,000 bush
els harvested last year.
The September figure does not take
into consideration the abandoned arce
age, the acreage cut for hay crop OIL
pastuTed
The condition of barley in Indiana
at time of harvest was SO per cent
Of normal and indicates a total produc
tiol of 917,74 bushels which does
not take into consideration abandoned
acreage, the acreage cut for hay OIL
pastured. The. August estimate was
944 900 bushels and last years harvest
amounted to 1,235.000 bushels.
The condition of buckwheat in In
diana September l, was IS per cent o.
normal, which is five points undel
last months figure. From this 1gurt

a total production of 1O0,620 bushels
is estimated, compared with 100000
bushels shown for August and 114,00O
bushels harvested last year.
The condition of white potatoes de-
c1ined six points during the month
and was estimated at 81 per cent OF
normal on September 1, which tndi-
Gates a total production of 5,596,000
bushels, compared with 5,676,0o0 bush

The estimated production of sweet
potatoes in Indiana September l,
amounted to $4,000 bushels, ccmpar-
ed with $4,000 bushels shown for
August, and 1896, 900 bushels harvested
last year.
The average yield per acre Of all
tame hay in Indiana this yeac was
1.37 tons and for wild hay it was 125
tons. On this basis total crop OF
3,256,000 tons of tame hay and $4,000
tons of wild hay is estimated com
pared with 2,429,000 tons of tame hay
and $4,000 tons of wild hay produced
last year.
Number of Hogs

farms for fattening September l.
amounted to 3,549,O00 head, compared
with 3,226,000 head on hand las. year.
The condition of apples in Indiana
September /, was 70 per cent of nor
NAL and indicates total production
of 4,462, 900 bushels. Peaches showed
a total production of SO per cent OF
normal which indicates total crop OF
651. 900 bushels. The condition OF
pears was so per cent of normal and
indicates a total crop of $4,000 bush
els. The condition of pastures IN In
diana declined 10 points during the
month and is estimated at II per cent
of normal September l.
The condition of other state crops
compared with normal on September
1, was as follows: Millet, SO per cent;
grain sorghum, SO per cent; field peas
