FARMERS HOLIDAY GETS ACTION

Editor Askov American:
AS you have seen by the press the
National Farmers Holiday Associa-
ton met in Des Moines, Iowa, in a
joint conference with other organiza-
tions. At this conference an agri-
cultural code was drawn up and
adopted. The code embodies the cost
of production. 1t also includes the
Frazier bill as a separate demand. A
committee of three composed of John
Fl. Bosch of Minnesota, E. E. Ken
nedy of Illinois, and Mr.. Parmenter
of Nebraska, were elected to present
the code to the president.
In asking for the cost of produc-
ton we are only asking that the gov
eminent use its power to assist in
preventing organized gamblers, spec
ulators, and other explOiters from
stealing from the farmer, and l am
appealing to you farmers of Pine
county who are not with us to join
in with us now. You need our as
sistance and we need yours. I am not
dShlHS you W uO tIlS dS q pei SOhdi
favor, l am asking you to do it be-
cause it is your duty to do it; you
owe it to yourself, your family, and
others. The question now is whether
you and l have the courage, the vision
and the determination to fight what
ever battles may be necessary to Sc
cure economic and personal liberty.
If we haven't the necessary qualifica-
tions, we will bequeath the struggle
to our children.
The following telegram was re-
ceived from Washington last Friday:
"Morganthau, governor Farm Cred
it Administration, requests that all
famers in danger of loss of farm
through foreclosure or expiration OF
redemption, wire him collect. He de-
clares that it is his desire to stop
all foreclosures until Indebtedness
can be refinanced. Signed, John
Bosch"
This proves that your state presi-
dent has been able to prove to the
big boys at Washington that some
thing has to be done to relieve the
distress the farmers are in.
At the meeting in Rock Greek last
Friday night the hall was full tc
capacity. A splendid program was
presented both in the line of music
as we'll as song. The little children
did their part very well to fill the
program with song and defamation
Harold Peterson was the principal
speaker, and his speech was well re-
ceived. A donation of $50 was turned
over to Harold Peterson to be wired
to John Bosch at Washington. This
amount was donated from Pine town
Pokegama, Royalton, and Rock Creek
Those people are surely loyal to the
Holiday movement, and now 1t is up
to the rest in Pine county to do their
bit as we all receive the same bene-
fits. Mr.. Bosch must be kept at
Washington without privation as long
as he sees fit to stay there.
Now that the farmer for long time
has produced practically everything
below the cost of production; that he
has been rebuffed and bullied and
robbed and deceived and stripped OF
the fruits of his labor, while he was
busily engaged in feeding the people
of the nation, no one can question
that the farmer has all the reason in

A GOOD OMEN

Paul Mallon, Washington writer,
who has a column in The Minneapolis
Tribune, wrote the other day, as fol-
The Washington times., 1933-09-26

My husband is a good pro-
wider and so far as 1 know he
hasn't feathered any love nests.
Nobody has to bring him home
nights and he doesn't horse
whip me. But he has the most
viciouSly sloven table and
household habits of any man
in the world and nothing I
can do can break him of them.
He tucks his napkin under his
chin, and, believe you me, he
needs it. He uses the same fork
for everything and blows his hot
coffee down. He goes about in
his undershirt and his bare feet,
although he has a marvellous
mauve dressing gown and COM
Portable slippers, and he prefers
shaving in the kitchen to the
bathroom. He is more likely than
not to doze during bridge
game at home, and on the three
or four evenings a week we go
out he needs constant nudging
to keep awake.
He wasn't at all like that be-
fore our marriage five years ago.
He isn't the husband I visioned
and I'm afraid I'm weakening.
Is it true that familiarity breeds
contempt even among married
people? A. BROOKS.

VoriteS.
Brown Kid Belt
We've photographed a suit
that is very good to look at, and
is useful in your wardrobe, too.
It's in one of the smooth jer-
sey-like knitted fabrics, fairly
heavy, and very good about
keeping its shape. It's in beige,
with striped sweater, brown and
white alternating with the beige
for stripes.
The skirt is plain, the jacket
buttoned Snugly up the front,
and the collar is sailor style in
the back, a new fall note. It Is
$16.95, in misses sizes.
Smart Knit Tam
Worn with it are sturdy
brown leather ties, of the
Prince of Wales type, and a
clever knitted wool beret, pulled
well over on the right side,
and finished off with a feather
brush.
The tam is brown with beige
brush, but also comes in all
good sports colorS, including
tht vivid greens, rust and
blue. 1t is IS, and is one Of
those rare finds, good with all
sports clothes, and it may
even be worn for street.

cold and cuckoo is the tendency
of persons sporting the marital
ball-and-chain who give them
selves up to R~qt Americans
are inclined to call comfort.
You have seen examples of CON-
fort in the public parks. Peo-
pie will go picnicking and before
they are completely at their
ease horses are shying at loose
blowing papers three blocks
away and there is crabmeat on
the moon. People are inclined
to spread themselves; to ignore
the rights of others and, above
all, to be indifferent to the irate
opinions which they may de-
Velop in others. Someone has
said regarding easy-going people
that in order to be a saint one
must be a slob.
If this be true, give vo,1r
husband the benefit of YOUR
patience. Instead of thinking
he should be crowned consider
whether he should be canon
lied. You might try some
psychological experiments to
control the really abysmal ten
dency he seems to have to
parade around in his under
shirt and his bare feet. You
might get an encyclopedia and
point out the Fiji Islanders
whom he seems to emulate in
his household peregrinations.
Some scientific opinion to the
effect that they are the most
backward people in the world
might drive him into his mar
velous mauve dressing gown. If
the gown is a gift I would
really like to see it. In reality,
it might be the explanation of
everything. Your nudging sug-
gestion is good though old.
Any husband of five years has
been nudged to the point of
SenSitiVeneSS just as sure as
the glamour of romance is over.
Be patient. Have you no faults,
dear? PANDORA.

Household
Hints

Set a clean cork in the spout
of your coffee pot and it will re-
tain the flavor and also help to
keep the coffee hot.
Use evaporated milk as a
paste substitute for sticking Ia
bells on cans.
If a saucepan is rinSed in
water before heating milk in it
it will not Scorch so easily.
The white part of orange and
lemon rindS is usually bitter.
So when grating use only the
outside yellow part.
Grass and weeds should not
be allowed to grow around the
base Of young trees.
Cucumber juice and rind il
an excellent skin bleach.

Both are smart, sportslike,
and as interesting as a rough

ture is of so much Importance.
Color Contrast
Color and color contrast are
all that is needed to liven up
sports clothes of these materials.
Striped sweater blouses, COL
lar of a gay red or green against
a neutral beige or gray, or
merely belt and buttons in an
other color are usually sufficient
to make the sports outfit snap
into the fashion picture. Or you
may have two or three such de-
vices.
Suits and dresses are both
good, according to how warm a
costume you want. Grays, beige,

1aC, II your 1lgure seems TO
you to be incorrectly propor-
toned, or even if you have to
admit that it is pretty nearly
perfect, there are many ways
in which the cut Of your clothes
can compliment you.
Suppose, for instance, you
are bigger than the average
person. Your lines must be
simpler, perhaps even tailored,
If that S your temperament,
but at any rate not fussy.
You must avoid bulk in fab
Tics or large patterns that break
the surfaces or shiny ones that
catch the light and make you
look larger. You must avoid
crosslines whenever possible.
Stout Studies
The V line in seams or neck
lines is usually good if you
are stout. Sleeves are most
becoming if close-fitted and
full length. Skirts should not
be too short, nor belts too high.
Trimming details should never
be emphasized-nor should they
be so tiny as to call attention
to your size by contrast.
The fit of any garment is of
the greatest Importance if you
are stout. 1t must not be loose
nor must it be too tight-eSpe-
cially around the bust, upper
arms and hips.
If you are tall and thin, your
problems are different from
those of the tall fat person.
What you want to do is to
break the up-and-doWn lines by
crosswise details and by widen.
ing the figure in every possible
way.
Clothes for the tall thin girl
should never be too tight nor
too severe. Soft fabrics, full
ness and ease of fit are impor-
tant. When full sleeves are in
fashion, they are a help, and so
are berthaS, capeS, peplums,
collars, fichus, belts and sashes.
Skirt and Belt
Skirts should never be too
short nor too tight if you are
tall, and belts should be care
fully adjusted to break your
long lines and balance your
figure. You can do lot for
yourself around the shoulders
with the help of scarf or a
bulky fur.
Little women-thin or plump
must always be careful not to
wear clothes that look too big
for them. Their great danger is
that they will be overpowered by
their clothes and look like chill
dren dressed as groWn-upS.
Clothes should be cut simply,
and bulky or large figured
fabrics should be avoided.
If you are slim, short per-
son, your best fabrics are those
which permit soft treatment
and fullness. If you are plump
you want fabrics that have a
dull finish and an ability 20
tailor we'll and hold their shape.
Slim little people may be
frilly, but plump ones should
take a leaf from the book of
their plump big sisters and go
in for plain cut of even tailored
effects.
Irregularities
Certain physical irregularities
may be overcome by ycur
clothes if you know how to do
it. Large hips should never be
fitted too tight. Narrow shoul-
ders and flat chests may be
made much plumper by a soft
arrangement of the upper part
of the frock, or by a deep col
lar, cape or fichu effect.
A crosS-over Surplice cut is
a well-known device for wild
ening the upper part of the
body to balance big hips. Plump
necks do we'll in a V neck and
thin ones are benefited by a
high, close-fitting neckline.
So study your figure and you
will have much more success
in the choice of becoming
clothes. Remember that moth,

Dr.. 3isch! S Daily
Diet Hint

The average young girl Of to-
day knows little about foods
and their preparation. Unfor-
tunately. she seems to care
less. Mothers therefore should
teach their daughters cooking
and everything they know
about food in its relation to
health. The time a girl spends
in the kitchen will undoubtedly
prove of more value to her as
regards marriage and the main
tenance of a home than the
time she spends with the paint
box and the mirror.

The frock is in gray tweed,
woven very loosely, with soft
Angora finish. While it is very
tailored, as I like my sports
dresses, the gilet and cuffs of
white satin lessen the severity
of line. Cord trimming is the
tailored accent, used in triple
rows to edge the gilet and
above the cuffs, two cords of
the tweed and one of the satin.

Plucking Eyebrows

Plucking Eyebrows
Question: / have plucked my

the eye. Please tell me what to

AnSWer-The constant pluck
ing of your eyebrows has evl-
IDENTIFY irritated the roots of the
broWs. Do you always rinse
your eyebrows we'll with hot
water and then soften with a
good cream before plucking
them? This is most essential
as plucking "cold" always irri-
tates. But, do you realize the
pencil-line eyebrow is a thing of
the past? When you perform
your sacred evening cleansing
rites, rinse well with warm
water and massage a cream into
the roots of the brows, let this
stay on all night. When you
remove this excess hair, take it
from the bridge of the nose,
then smooth off under the fore
head line and above the eye.
You'll find this method will not
give the face such harsh lines,
in addition to improving the
present "bumpy" condition.

walking correctly.
