Beans are very susceptible to injury
from arsenical sprays. The least
amount of injury has occurred from the
use of arsenite of zinc. The injury
from arsenate of lead has not been
serious enough to make its use imprac-
teal.
Arsenite of zinc should be used at the
rate of one pound of the powder to
forty or fifty gallons of water, prefer
ably the latter.
Arsenate Of lead should be used at
the rate of one pound of the powder to
forty gallons of water.
The spray should be applied to the
under surface of the leaves One, two
or three applications of spray may be
necessary, depending upon conditions.
Only beans of the dwarf or bunch type
should be grown. Early planted beans
of an early maturing variety are most
easily protected and are generally most
successful in badly infested sections. -

Society, Clubs Of Imperial Valley
State Begins Campaign
to SaUe Lives of Infants

Though several of the states have
not complied with the provisions of
the Federal Law for the promotion
of the welfare and hygiene of ma
ternity and infancy, more familiarly
known as the Sheppard Towner Bill,
California is in line for the appor-
tionment of federal funds for the
purposes set forth in the measure
and the machinery has been set up
for the administration of the fund.
The state has, for the current fis-
cal year, $4,000 outright and by
matching the state funds already APP
propriatcd, total of about $45, 200
For each succeeding fiscal year,
with the usual state apportionment,
the maximum amount from the Fed
eral government will be $33,112.0l,
according to figures published in
Clubwoman' for February.
The funds will be used to carry
out the provisions of the law which
will be carried on by counties when
possible, under supervision of state
workers including one for contact
with public health nurses; one to
survey mid wives; one for nutrition
work with mothers and one for
dental hygiene. In addition, there
will be lectures, films, slides, ex
hibits and literature, all designed
for educational purposes and to
awaken interest in the purpose of
the law to save the lives of infants
and to give to mothers proper care
and prevent the loss of life from
causes connected with childbirth.
The residue of the funds is to be
used to pay salaries of nurses to he
lent for limited periods in counties
where an equal amount of money is
furnished, to cover travelling ex
penses, equipment AID San initial
housing for a baby center.

By HEDDA HoYT
Fashion Editor Of the United Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-Leon
Bakst, famous costumer and found
er of the modern school of costume
design, discussed the secrets of fem
mime artifice and dress before hun
dreds OF fashionable New York
women who filled the Plaza ball
room.
He began his lecture on the sill
houette which he considers the all
important thing in the fashion
world.
Hiding the imperfections of the
body is powerful art. Black is
the most powerful color we have to
fight bulky imperfections, for black
makes whatever it covers disappear
and when one sees nothing, one
imagines beauty.
"Too many fat women make the
mistake of wearing clothes that fit
too tightly. This is especially SC
among concert singers who crush in
their fat thus defeating their own
ends
Hope, Also, for Miss Skinny
The too-thin woman also received
a bit of valuable advice. Ways OF
hiding her offending parts by means
of false pleats and hip-draperies
were shown by screen slides.

HOLTVILLE, Feb. 1.-THE Wom-
ems College Club of the valley, of
which Mrs. w. +. Bealc is president,
met Saturday at the Home Econo-
mics building at the Holtville high
school, and enjoyed a dinner and
program in "Reminiscences of the old
pioneer days when Holtville was
noted far and wide for its gener-
osity. Nearly 100 guests were
present. The dinner was carried out
as nearly as possible, like the old
fiesta dinners were, then stories
were told of wild west shows which
made Dave Williams, famous as king
of the fiesta. Tales of the chariot
races were also heard, and of the
thousands who gathered to see the
bronco busting. Different experi.
ences of the hardships and dcpriva,
tions of the pioneer life MADE each
one wonder if this beautiful bloom
ing valley could have been what
they were speaking of. The guests
all agreed that Holtvillc's hospital
ity had not diminished as the time
went by.

to be furnished by the Western Cos
tune Company of Los Angeles. The
Winter Garden orchestra of seven
pieces will furnish the music. The

Conceal Your Fat, Hide Skinniness,
Paradoxical Advice of French Artist

"Skinny knees particularly make
themselves unbeautiful, unless deft-
w hidden under carefully devised
skirts said Bakst.
He suggested that the too-thin
woman use large designs and orna'
ments. For her he suggests the
light colored furs, such as ermlne
and squirrel, as they exaggerate fat
On the contrary dark furs with long
hair are best for the womsn who
leans toward embonpoint.
Concerning the corset, Bakst stat
ed that the svelte form of which the
poets rave is obtained by abdominal
supports, and that in order to give
the impression of grace even the
slender woman must resort to the
artifice of the corset.
No Love for Tailored Suit
In contrasting the American WON
en- with the French women, Mr.
Bakst said: 81 confess l do not like
the tailored suit, although l realize
it's importance to women whose
work takes them daily into public
life.''
American women according to
Bakst wear their clothing with more
severity than do the French women
About the French woman there is
always some little fragile touch OF
femininity which adds charm which
the Americans in their severity lack

evening dinner at X. p. hall and
thoroughly enjoyed the delicious
menu provided by Mrs. f. S. Short
and her committee. The formal
meeting in the hall followed. A

The address was lofty in thought
and was very beautifully delivered.
A pleasing episode followed the
address, Mrs. William North, dis
trict deputy grand chief, presenting
the distinguished leader a beautiful
picture depicting desert scene,
typical of the valley. The presenta-
tion was gracefully made by Mrs.
North on behalf of the Pythian Sis

was manifestly pleased with the
compliment and expressed herself as
delighted with the choice gift.
Very much to the surprise of Mrs.
North, Mrs. Hart of the Brawley
lodge, stepped forth and presented
her also with "A picture, the dupli-
cate of the one she had just bestow-
ed upon the grand chief. Mrs
North was equal to the occasion,
however, and gracefully accepted
the gift.
Today, the distinguished guest of
the order will be given sight-see
ing trip over the valley and down
below the line. A number of auto
loads will accompany the party. Al
0 clock all will be the guests OF
the Brawley lodge at a luncheon tt

The decorations used last night
were very beautiful ;snd the com
mittee was highly eomplimented b,
those present. The colors of the
lodge, red, yellow, white and blue
were intermingled and the effee
was most charming. Mrs. DUANE
Stafford was chairman of the dee
Grating committee which workec
