Silverware Sterling Silver
Girl Tells Women All About It
BY MARIAN HALE

New York, Aug. 22.-If you want
to know anything about silver, you
will get your information directly or
indirectly from Miss Ruth March
Egge.
Miss Egge is ''the sterling silver
girl" nicknamed because of her all
inclusive knowledge Of table silver
in all its forms and uses. She is
field secretary for the sterling silver
manufacturers in the United States.
Lectures to womens clubs, at pri-
vate and public schools and before
college classes in home economics and
art-all are planned and supervised by
Miss Egge. Demonstrations in silver
etiquette and proper methods of set
ting table for various meals also are
part of her work. Besides, there are
Lectures in her program covering the
history of ornamentation and the origin
of table customs as old in the silver
of civilized peoples.
1T is a fascinating way in which
to come into contact with women"
says Miss Egge, because we have
an immediate bond of interest.
"One thing l have noticed is there
is no difference between the business
woman and the home woman when
it comes to loving a home,' she adds.
And / sometimes think that women
who work outside their homes and
are dependent upon restaurants or
boarding houses ere more apprecia-
tive of elegance in table appoint
ments than women who are surrounded
by the very finest.
Il believe the time has come for
women to get little out of the beat
en- tracks of business ard blaze new
trails" she concludes. "The buyers

By SISTER II. Try
Canning Peaches.

Perhaps there is Lo fruit more
satisfactory fer canning than peaches.
They retain their flavor and shape
and keep so well that the canned peach
is almost as acceptable as the fresh
one.
For canning, clingstone peaches, not
too ripe, are preferable; but for peach
pickles, never. This thing of trying
to eat a clingstone picked peach is
far from a pleasure. Clings have a
finer grained flesh than frees, but I'M
less firm to the touch they are too
much of a pest to bother with. They
must be canned by the open kettle
method.
To prepare peaches for canning
cut around the peach on the seam.
Twist the halves apart and cut the
stone from the half to which it
clings. Pare and can, allowing l cup
sugar to a quart can for peaches
canned for pies or puddings, and =
cups 70. peaches canned for table
use.
Cold Pack Peaches.
Use freestone peaches. Wash and
dip in boiling water for two minutes.

LESS AIR MEANS
GREATER COMFORT
IS CLAIM OF DAYTON COM
PANY, WHOSE TIRES ARE
SOLD BY DAWSON FIRM.

Tire engineers have recognized fol
years that if the carcass Of a tire coulc
be built so that it would overcome
the weaknesses of rim cut, tread sep
aration and bulging when underin-
hated that such a tire would prove
revolutionary in the number of miles
of service which it could be expected
to deliver.
This is true because it enables g
tire to yield to road distractions. Il
protects the tread from chipping and
cutting and results in thousands Of
additional miles of service.
Practically all tires during the past
ten years have been sold with a more
or less provisional guarantee, depend
ing largely upon the maintenance oil
high air pressure to protect the car
cass from deterioration.
Therefore, the announcement OF the
Dayton Rubber Mfg. Co. that Day
ton Thorobred Cords were built tc
deliver their maximum service when

is in direct opposition to all the warn
ings of tire makers that tire had
to be highly inflated if the owner
were to expect long service.
A great step in the comfort and ser
vice which may be secured from the
use of automobiles is made by this
announcement. Dayton tires are sold

Some Dog Rat Killers
That Keep Union Hours
Fox Terriers Used to Keep Rodents
From Entering South America.


From Entering South America.
BUENOS AIRES.-The dog work
ers of Buenos Aires keep union hours.
They are of great help to the ma
tional department of health, which, in
order to prevent any epidemic from
making its appearance in the biggest
city Of South America, is waging a
war on rats coming from outside the
country.
All steamers coming into the port
of Buenos Aires are gassed, in order
to prevent any of the many rats they
carry from landing, and thirty fox
terriers have been especially trained
in rat hunting, so as to deal with any
that survive.
These dogs start work at seven in
the morning and keep on the job TN
til II, when they are allowed to knock
off for lunch.
At l o'clock their work starts again,
lasting until or 6, when they go of
their own accord to take an antiseptic
bath before having their dinner.
The dogs on the port work always
fixed hours, and it is estimated that
they kill about 10000 rats monthly,
effectively helping to keep the city in
good health, as it has been found up
on analysis that the rats in most of
cases show germs OF bubonic plague.

BOTTOM OF OCEAN
READILY PICTURED
NEW PROCESS MAY BE GREAT
AID TO MARINERS IN CHART
ING THEIR COURSE.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.-The pre-
else contour of the Pacific continental
shelf from San Francisco Bay to
Point Descanso, Mexico, revealed re-
Gently in the publication by the Hy-
geographic office of the navy depart
ment OF bathymetric chart, shows
the floor of the ocean in a detailed
way which will enable mariners here
after to determine the position Of their
craft when landmarks are INSTRUCTED
from view by climatic conditions.
The information is based on a re-
cent cruise made by the destroyers
Hull and Cory, employing the re-
Gently invented Sonic finder.
Saving of Hours.
The Sonic finder, a device which de-
ter1nines the depth OF the ocean by re-
cording the time required for the
sound to reach the bottom and re-
echo to the ship, takes a 2,000-foot
sounding in less than minute, sup
planting a method which required six
, hours
Originally undertaken at the request
of the Carnegie Institute to aid in
finding earthquake faults in the Pa
cihc ocean, the result obtained by the
charting cruise far exceeded the orig
inal purpose, according to Lieut.. Ly-
man K Swenson, of the navy depart
ment.
Biologists may employ the chart to
trace the extension OF oil fields, sit
uated on the southern California coast,
to submerged prominences in the
same vicinity offshore, it is said.
Celebrating the possibilities Of such
chart, Lieutenant Swenson said it
would enable anthropologists to trace
links between continents in order to
reach determination of the manner
in which animals migrated to coun-
tries which are now separated by
oceans.
Revelations Regarding Ocean Floor.
Great revelations have been made
regarding the floor OF the ocean off
the Pacific coast, which show an egg
shaped submerged prominence on
the bed of the Pacific coast at a point
50 miles southwest of the Farallone
Islands, off the Golden Gate entrance
OF San Francisco bay.
| The chart also shows that if San
| Francisco Bay and the Pacific ocean
were pumped down 100 fathoms 600
feet). the coast line would be remov-
ed so miles from the Golden Gate
straits and connect with the Faral-
I lones.
Off the coast of southern Califor-
MIA the ocean is spotted with depres-
sions and contours resembling land
condition of mountain and lakes. This
condition obtained in line with the
oil fields off the coast of Santa Bar
bara county.

SOLD $4,000 ROSES
A DAY IN GARDEN
MORE THAN 100000 IS IN
VESTED IN ROSE CULTURE
ILLINOIS GREENHOUSES.

Illinois greatest rose garden is To-
Gated at Pana, III, No other city, per-
haps, in all the world produces as
many. During the busy season 100000
to $4,000 are shipped every day. More
than 20 acres of greenhouses, shelter
ing several million plants and with
an annual production of 100000 to
lo,OOO000 roses, comprise this great
industry OF Horticulture.
Rose experts are at loss to know
whether it is the soil, air or water that
is responsible for the excellence of the
| roses that are produced here. The
greenhouses are the largest in the
world. Some of them contain 100000
plants
Thirty Buds to a Plant.
There are perhaps rs or more miles
OF steam pipes in some of the larger
groups of houses. 1t is imperative that
uniform temperature of 81 to II
degrees be maintained to secure the
best results. The larger structures are
90 feet in width and with length OF
400 feet. There are four companies en-
gagged In the rose production, and each
has certain specialties.
Repeated hybridization has created
many of the most beautiful specimens
of roses. 1t is claimed that the aver
age plant here will yield 80 perfect
buds, while elsewhere the usual limit
is but TO- A large number of the best
selling roses are thornless. The aver
age life of rose plant is three years.
They are then destroyed and replaced
with new. The roses that are grown
for commercial purposes bloom win
ter and summer. Many of these orig
mated from grated stock in the
marsh lands of the British Isles. The
roses are gathered while in bud each
morning and afternoon and ship
ments are usually made at night SO
as to reach their destination the fol-
lowing morning The roses that are
particularly tender are gathered while
the bud is tight so as to insure safe
shipment.
$1,000,000 Invested.
More than S1,000,00O is invested in
the rose growing business here. There
is heavy loss in glass breakage Hail
storms always create havoc. Mischiev-
Gus boys have a penchant for tossing
stones through the roofs of the glass
houses.
Carbonic ice machines furnish re-
frigeration for many of the cut flow
ers where it is necessary to harder"
them at temperature of As degrees
for II hours to prolong the time be-
fore willing.
The American Beauty rose, which
has long ranked with the leading spe-
cies, is considered by the Pana florists
to be too difficult to raise to be profit
able, even though the buds can be
sold for as much as 81 each. The
plants are probably the most healthy
of the rose genus and grow very large
but do not produce enough blooms
to satisfy the florists.
So Unsuitable is the demand for ros-
es that the leading companies here
are steadily adding to their facilities
and it will be no surprise if before
the year is over that the annual pro-
duction will aggregate 25,O0O,OO0 ros-
es with 80 acres of greenhouses.
