The Great Lakes region, how
ever, will enjoy comfortable tenn
peratureS over the weekend, Fore
caster j. R. Lloyd said here today.
Cool breezes were welcomed in
Minnesota, Michigan, Illinois and
Wisconsin yesterday, four States
that had contributed heavily TO
the toll taken throughout the ma
ton, conServatively estimated at
5000 lives.
More than TOO deaths were at
tributed to the heat in Minnesota;
Michigan's toll passed the $50
mark, and more than $50 heat
deaths were recorded in Wisconsin.
Forty-six deaths yesterday brought
the Chicago total to 1872.
The thermometer reached a
high of Sc in Chicago yesterday.
Detroit enjoyed temperatures in
the low sos, as did Milwaukee,
Cleveland, and other cities in the
Great Lakes region.
In contrast, Huron, S. D.,
sweltered under 104 degree tenn
peratures; at Kankakee, ILL.,, the
mercury climbed to 119 degrees;
BartleSville, Okla, reported a re-
cord-breaking 1903; it was ITO at
Wichita, 108 at Kansas City, los
at Lincoln, Neb., 108 at Des
MoineS, 1O2 at Indianapolis, lO4 at
Cincinnati, 104 at Harve, Mont,
and 106 at st. Louis.
Recurrence of the terrific heat
in the Northwest was a deathly
blow to a miserable population
after showers, torrential in some
sections, gave promise CT ending
the drought. Though there is no
hope of harvesting even a partial
crop in the ravaged DakotaS, Ne
braska, western Minnesota, Mon
tana and Wyoming, heavy rains
and cool weather would revive
pasturage and succor thirsty and
starving livestock.
Grain prices skyrocketed on the
Chicago Board of Trade as the
sun continued to scorch the fields

up 2 cents, September closing at

was up cents, the September
futures finishing the day at 82B
to 80 cents. Other grains followed
suit. -.
Retail milk prices went up a
cent a quart here today. The in
creased price is due to the de-
creased supply from the scared

sin dairy farms.

JAPAN TOPIC
OF INSTITUTE
SPEAKER

UNIVERSITY, Va, July 16
G.N.SO. Japan is a country
singularly poor in the raw mater
ials which are considered neces
sary for defense and for industrial,
ization, DR.. Elizabeth Body Of
Harvard University, told the Insti'
tute of Public Affairs today. DR.
Body said:
"She must import cotton,
wool, petroleum, and part Of her
iron. There is a tendency to
ignore the fact that japanese
imports have been expanding
along with japanese exports.
During the present century the
value of these imports has al
ways exceeded the value of the
exports except in 1909, and
during the years Of the World
War. Before the war, Japan was
always a debtor country. She
paid for her excess of. imports
by borrowing abroad.
A DEBTOR NATION
Japanese trade and industry
developed tremendously during
the war. Japan had practically
a monopoly of most of the Asia
tic markets. There was a
markedly favorable balance of
trade with the result that Japan
accumulated very considerable
gold balances abroad and for
the first time became a creditor
nation. This situation became
reversed again as soon as the
war was over.
WAR CHEST ITEM
THE financial situation Of
the government is causing con-
Germ to many thoughtful Japa-
neSe because of the large expen-
ditureS for the army and navy
in Manchuria and North China
which are met by domestic Dor
rowing. Manchuria seems des-
tined not only to be q heavy
public expense but to absorb
large sums by the channels or
private investment with any
promise of q real return very
much in the future"

dress will wear dependably. AS to
the smart styling of the model pic
tured, note that it is a tunic cos
tune. Newly arriving fashions
verify previous reports that the
tunic will continue to be the big
idea for fall. The large black but
tons that fasten this tunic, also
the modish short sleeve and the
white jabot, register important
fashion details.
Advance fashions tell Of the en-
phasis placed on the princess sill
houette for both dresses and coats
as the print costume with full
length princess coat of the print
in this group demonstrates. The
print is black and wine on cream
ground. There is increasing inter-
est shown for wine and red shades
and they are regarded as color
"frsts" for fall and winter. An
innovation is the use of velvet
revers on coats and jackets after
the manner noted in this costume.
This coat-dress qualities admirably
as an ideal midsummer costume.
It's sheer print guarantees comfort
while it's modish velvet revers tune
to the march of time that leads
to fall days.
In the redingote made of fine
black lace as portrayed to the
right, answer to the midseeson
dress problem is given in no I'M
certain terms. A lace redingote
such as this may be worn over
different dresses converting III e
simplest frock into a costume of
style distinction. For formal wear
pose it over a black satin slip.
What could make a more charm
ing hostess or dinner gown than
the redingote of black lace top
ping a white cotton pique founda-
ton as here illustrated. The soft
pique collar and perky bow lend
fetching accents to this costume.
You'll love a black lace redingote
or jacket over your summer pastel
silk crepe frocks. Try out the idea.
You will find it well worth while.
Separate lace jackets are smart,
too, in either black or white.

Some Causes and Cure
off "Rancid" Butter

"The term rancid is used to de-
scribe many undesirable favors
which may occur in butter. The
chemist, however, when he speaks
of rancid flavor. has in mind the
flavor or odor of butyric acid.
Butyrin is the fat from which but
ter gets it's name. When this fat is
split into glycerin and the free fat
ty acid known as butyric acid, the
rancid flavor develops. Although
this does not commonly occur in
butter, it is due to the action of an
engine found in milk, known as
ipase. The activity of this engine
may be destroyed by heat. The
sweet cream may be heated to 145
degrees F. and held at that tenn
perature for one-half hour, and
then cooled Immediately to so de-
grees F. 1t should be held at this
temperature overnight before
churning.
"Quite often cream may develop
strong flavor, due to bacterial
contamination. This may be over
come by milking in clean man.
ner, by thorough cleaning and by
prompt cooling.
occasionally a strong flavor
may be noticed in the milk when
the COW is experiencing some I'D
der trouble. Such milk is liable to
taste SALTY"

GLACE KID is NEW
FALL GLOVE STYLE

The smartest gloves this fall will
be smooth. There is a definite
revival, to quote Vogue, "of the
firm, moulded hand" possibly fol-
lowing the moulded Silhouette, the
moulded bust and moulded hips,
which will be featured for fall. AS
the high style leather of the COM
ing season, Paris is consequently
sponsoring thin, supple glace kid.
1t has always been a standby and
favorite, but now it is coming up
rapidly in the fashion world.
Since three out of the four gloves
Molyneux will show with his col
lection are glace kid, it goes with
out saying that the smartest
women in Paris and this country
will adopt the fashion. Fashions,
as whole, are becoming more
and more feminine and the glace
glove is but a natural result of
that trend. Thin, smooth leather
is the most fattering a woman
can wear. 1t outlines the shape
of her hand and makes her fingers
appear long and slender.
Color is again a dominant note.
Colored gloves are not going out
of style. On the contrary, the fash
ion will be harnessed to practical,
sensible shades, of which some will
become almost staples.

Sunburned Calves
Bring Less Money
Buyers and Consumers Back
Off at Meat Marked by
Summer Heat.
BY C. W. HAMMANs. Marketing Specialist,

Livestock buyers on the terminal
markets say that farmers who turn
veal calves outdoors in the hot sun
should either provide the animals
with parasols or prepare to re-
ceive less money for the animals
when they are sold because con-
surners do not want sunburned
veal.
Complaints from several markets
have been made that calves which
are exposed to the sun actually
are sunburned so that the meat APP
pears red when the calves are
slaughtered. This unusual appear
ance may not injure the food val
ue but it does prevent consumers
from buying the veal.
Hot weather also affects the size
of meat cuts which consumers will
buy, and they prefer small chops,
steaks and roasts. This tendency
to ask for the smaller cuts makes
it difficult to sell cuts taken from
heavy veal calves. Calves weigh
ing from $50 to It's pounds are
most likely to bring top prices
in hot weather.
The difference between top
calves and medium grades may be
as much as two or three cents a
pound. A 2OO-pound calf at Sc a
hundred only brings $12 but $50
pound calf at SO a hundred brings
1880 The fact that lighter calves
sell better in midsummer should
not cause farmers to send thin
calves to market; the calves should
be in good condition.
After midseason, calves that
weigh ITS to 200 pounds will again
bring good prices, but during the
hottest weather farmers should
keep the calves sheltered from the
sun and should market them before
they are too heavy to bring top
prices.

Using Beet PULP

Beet pulp or beet meal may be
used to replace hay, as dairy COW
ration. The best use, however, says
an authority. is made of this feed
when it is fed soaked. If short of
hay replace one pound of hay with
one pound of dried beet pulp. You
may do this up to one-half the hay
allowance. Add about four times
the dry weight of the beet pulp of
water and feed it as you would 81
lage or roots. In this way the beet
meal will help replace the short
age of hay.
