It is proposed that the parade start
at noon. followed at 4:30 o'clock with
A decorated baby carriage procession

some means OF getting all the people

kerchief scarf as an accessory but so
popular has the idea become, design
erS have taken, as is inStanced in the
model here shown, to incorporating it
as an actual part of the dress rather
than considering it as separate item.
The kerchief square is a very clever
way of settling the neckline problem
which so often confronts the home
dressmaker. 1t can be made either
of the very fabric of the dress or of
a different material related to the
ensemble by employing an Identical

motifs and colorings.

Canada Thistles Killed
by Using Smother Crop

Canada thistles are best killed by
some smother crop, and the more thor
oughIy the smothering is done, Of
course the more effective the killing
will be. Where q good stand Of al
falfa can be had, that will usually
wear out the thistles. Thorough Gull
tivation of a crop like tobacco should
do serious damage to the thistles. The
essential thing is to keep the tops from
growing, and after time with this
treatment the roots will be starved out
and die.
Ii you sow oats on this field the this
ties are likely to overgrow the oats,
so that the crop will be pretty near
worthless. If tobacco will work well
in the farm rotation, that will be
much better crop, because it would be
cultivated, and hence the thistleS
would be kept cut off. In the oats or
other similar grain, they will grow
right up with the grain and no prog
ress whatever will be made with get
ting rid of them. =

One of the most delicious ways of
preparing a fowl that has passed its
first youth is to cook it en- casserole
with vegetables. Even the oldest
rooster can be completely disguised
If served in this way. The long, slow,
moist cooking in the covered dish
makes even the drumsticks tender,
while the fiavors Of the chicken and
vegetables form a delicious blend
The bureau of home economics
gives the following directions for pre-
pairing fowl en- casserole with vege-
tables:
S pounds fowl stalks of celery
carrots l green pepper
1 onion
Cut the fowl into portions con-
venient for serving. Slice or chop the
vegetables into very small pieces. Dust
the pieces of chicken with flour and
brown them delicately in a small
quantity of fat. Place them directly
In the casserole. Then pour the
chopped vegetables into the frying
pan and let them absorb all the
Drowned fat left from the chicken,
and put them in the casserole. Add
enough hot water to keep the ma
terials from sticking to the dish,
place the cover in position, and cook
for 8 to hours, or until the fowl is
tender. Just before serving. remove

To Keep Ants
AWAY
!. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

The surest way to keep a house
free from ants is to leave no food
lying about on shelves or in open
places where they can reach it. says
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. Ants go where they find food.
and If the food supplies of the house
hold are kept In ant-proof metal con-
tainers or ice boxes, and If all food
that may happen to be scattered by
children or others is cleaned up
promptly, the ant nuisance will be
slight. Cake, bread, sugar, meat and
like substances are especially at
tractive to the ants and should be
kept from them.

in many parts Of the country are:
Castor bean, sunfiowers of various
kinds, and cosmos, which yields its
gay-colored flowers until late in the

PREPARING Sailed PEANUTS

Peanuts may be salted in the same
way as almonds or other nuts. They
are not difficult to prepare, and one
may have fresh supply at any time
by sailing them at home. The recipe
is from the bureau of home economics:
Loosen the skins of fresh, unroasted
peanuts by placing them in water at
a temperature of SO degrees G. for
A minutes. Slip the skins off, spread
the nuts in thin layer on cloth or
clean paper. and let them dry for "a
TO As hours at room temperature. Pre-
pare kettle of cooking oil for deep

in wire basket, and cook them for Z
minutes at a temperature of $50 de-
grees c. They should then be uni

AS soon as the nuts are removed
from the oil, place on absorbent paper

kle them with salt while still warm.

Most Practical Control
Measures for Plant Lice

Spraying with nicotine solution is
one of the most practical control meas
ures for aphids or plant lice that at
tack plants in the vegetable or flower
garden. This material is prepared by
dissolving one and One-fOurth tea
spoonfuls of nicotine sulphate or
Blackleaf-40 in one gallon of water in
which has been dissolved cubic inch
of soap.
As this material is a contact insecti-
eide, it is necessary to hit each aphid
with the spray to get complete control.
The aphids usually gather on the I'M
derside of the leaves and these must
be sprayed.
The nicotine may be used as dust
by mixing one-fourth pound with five
pounds of hydrated lime. Allow the
mixture to stand several hours before
using and then apply with dust gun.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
Critics of the tuberculosis radica-
tion campaign in the United States
are, as a rule, well-meaning, but unin-
formed. The bureau of animal indus
try of the United States Department
of Agriculture has observed a rapid
decline in opposition to the campaign
for eradication of bovine tuberculosis,
but occasional criticisms persist. To
these DIRECTORS the bureau offers OPP
portunity to judge the overwhelming
mass of scientific evidence in published
form. An array of established facts,
the bureau asserts, proves that eradi-
cation of tuberculosis from live stock
means not only huge economic saw
ing to the live stock industry, but also
q safer milk and food supply to the
American public.
Expression of Public Will.
In particular the bureau stresses the
view that tuberculosis eradication is
an expression of the public will
through their elective representatives.
The work aims to remove, in prac-
teal way, the menace of a devastating
disease. The cooperative work Is con-
Quoted under federal and state author
ity, and Is supported by funds apprO-
priated by congress, by state legisla-
lures, and by counties. Any opponent
may have opportunity to appear and
voice opposition when appropriations
and authorization of the work are un-
der consideration. The work has ex-
panded to new areas from year to
year because the advocates have pre-
sented to legislators evidence that con-
WINGED the doubters of the merit of the
campaign.
Work Will Go On.
The bureau of animal industry Is
confident that the work will go on.
Opposition to eradication work, which
was quite general ten years ago, has
declined until now it occurs only spo-
radically. INSTRUCTORS, the bureau
says, add something to the cost of
eradication and the time required for
completing the work, and increase the
opportunity for tuberculosis to spread
from animal to animal, and from ami
NAL to persons. The bureau believes
that citizens have every right to ex-
press criticism verbally or through the
press, but that If the critics are sim
cere and honest, they should first OBJ
tain the facts readily available in fed
eral and state publications which con-
trovert practically all criticisms that
