measurement. your weight con-
tinues to be the key to your figure
program. If you are normal weight
with a hipline obStinately out of
proportion, don't make the mis-
take of dieting to reduce your hips
to symmetry.
You must alter your hlpllne
without losing any weight, there
fore calorie curtailment is The
wrong technique for a problem
really caused by less exercise than
you need. You could diet your
self into stringlines without bene-
fit to hips, health or disposition,
but there are number of exercises
which can be relied upon to keep
you in symmetry.
When hips and overweight occur
in the same figure, it is time TO
diet. Figure Improvement always
begins with normal weight, and
bringing the weight to normal
can be accomplished only through
calorie control.
Single-handed dieting, however,
must be backed by intense exer-
else to remove extra inches from
the hipline. The generally over
weight group is the only one which
needs to diet in order to deal with
q wayward hipline. All types must
exercise.
The little underweights and the
tall slim girls with prominent hips
must add calories to their usual
intake to prevent weight reduc-
ton from exercise. Keeping the
weight up to normal and getting
the hips down to streamlineS
gives the disproportionate under
weight something to worry about,
but the solution is simple: More
calorieS and more exercise, to fill
out the figure in some spots and
wear it down in others.
With all types of Subnormal
weight, health and figure improve
through the addition Of carefully
selected calorieS to the daily
menu. For beauty's sake, take
these extra Galleries in the form of
whole milk, whole grains, fresh
fruits, and vegetables. Then

pounds and curves where they are

Since all Of you need exercise
for the hips, you will find the two
following exercises effective in
troductory measures for SHINING
this portion Of the figure.
Position: Get down on the floor
with weight on hands and knees,
arms straight.
Movement: Transfer all the
weight to the right knee and slow
iy stretch the left leg straight out
behind. Flex the knee and raise
the leg high in air. Return to
original position and repeat five
times before changing to the other

POSITION: Lie Hat on back on
floor, legs extended straight out.
: Movement: With one leg on

International News Service

The infant mortality rate
throughout the nation in 1896
showed a slight increase over the
previous year, the Census Bureau
reported today.
Deaths of infants under one
year of age numbered 121.525 last
year or an average of $50 per
thousand live birth. The 1885
average was 55.7.
Infant mortality increased in
20 States and the District of
Columbia and decreased in 10
States.
Connecticut, with a rate of 42.1
mortalities per one thousand per
live births, was lowest, while New
Mexico, with a rate of HAT, was
highest.
San Antonio, with a rate of
1881, had the highest infant NOR
tally during the year, and New
Haven, with a rate Of 1873, was
lowest.
Cities with low mortality rates
included Erie, with 1872; Fort
Wayne, 1873; Jersey City, $50:

The trickling stream of Govern

of dollars today as taxpayers for
warded second-quarter income re-
turns and investors paid for the
Treasury's new issue Of Short-term
notes.
Officials declined to forecast
how much will be realized from
income levies in view of their
miscalculation during the March
quarter. At that time, budget eX-
perts overestimated the tax return
by nearly $50 million dollars.

President Roosevelt'S recent ex-
pose of tax evasion coupled with
intensive collection campaigns by
internal revenue agents probably
will bring the June yield from
income taxes we'll above 500 mil

In all, the Treasury anticipates
its cash reserve will have been

Hybrid Sweet Corn Makes Good

Corn on the cob, as early as the
earliest ever grown and with quality
equal to the best midseason corn is
now possible, according to DR.. J. B..
Park, associate agronomist of the
Ohio Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton. Most people have become re-
and high quality in sweet corn do
not go together, but now we may ac-
|tually enjoy Golden Bantam quality
a week before Golden Bantam itself
is ready, in one of the early sweet
corn hybrids which, besides having
earliness and good quality, makes a
higher yield and resists Stewards
disease.
Tests at Columbus in 1885 and
1896 gave the following results: A
group Of early hybrids gave an av-
erage yield of $500 marketable ears
an acre when the best Open-pollinat-
ed varieties of similar maturity
yielded $500 ears. Also, the hybriCs
had better quality and larger ears.
Another group of medium early and
midseason corns included such va
rieties as Golden Bantam and Whip
ple's Early Yellow. In this group,
the hybrids, all of them of first
quality, yielded 6100, and the open
pollinated varieties, 4300 ears an
acre. The hybrids ripen more even
ly, and larger portion of the ears
is marketable because of more uni
form size and shape. 4&
OF the first early group, Span
cross C2 and Marcross 80 are es-
pecially desirable because of their
good-sized ears and good quality.

posts, but he ever was retiring al
most to the point of effacement, AMI
probably the greatest of his claims
to notability was that he was the
son of martyred president. 1t
was not even given to him to per-
petuate the name of his father, fo.'
Abraham Lincoln III died in early
life
And now the death of Robert T.
Lincoln's widow closes the chapter
Of the Lincoln family. She has
daughters and grandchildren, bur
they do not bear the Lincoln name.
In her own right Mrs. Lincoln prob
ably wrought as good service to the
nation as did her husband. For,
while he was serving as a presiden-
tial secretary and later as an am
bassador, she was a prominent fig
ure in official society, and she made
many historic and valuable gifts to
the White House, the library Of
Congress and the church which
President Lincoln attended in Wash
ington.
| 1t was strange coincidence, and
nothing more than that, which
brought Robert T. Lincoln to see his
father assassinated. to be present
when Garfield was shot, and to be at
the Buffalo exposition when McKin-
ley, the third of the martyred presi-
dents, received his mortal woun 1.
But the circumstances preyed on his
mind, and he more and more retir-
ed from the public, because he con-
sidered that a fatality might occur
at any gathering at which he was
tpresent. %. S. Journal.

For second early hybrids, Whipcross
CO.. and Spancross P39 produce
large ears of excellent quality; they
yield more than the earlier ones.
For still later corn the outstanding
hybrid is Golden Cross Bantam
which is the standard for yield ana
is of the highest quality.
To provide roasting ears through
out the season the first planting
should include one hybrid of each
maturity group, and paintings of
Golden Cross Bantam should follow
at intervals of seven to 10 days un-
til the middle of July.
In purchasing hybrid seed the
buyer should ask for the specific
hybrid that he wants and not just
for a hybrid, as all hybrids are not
equally desirable.

Emergency Hay Crops For 1887

Emergency hay crops will be need
ed this year to supplement the short
hay crop in prospect on many farms,
according to l.. E. Thatcher asso-
clate agronOmist of the Ohio agri-
cultural experiment station.
Unfortunately, no crop can be
sown in wheat or oats this spring
that will make enough growth after
harvest to furnish much pay
1t is impractical to SOW any kind
lof seed on a thin meadow in tho
spring. Oats have been suggested
for this purpose, but ON the expert
ment station farm this practice has
not been successful. The competition
of the clover, grass, and weeds has
resulted in too little growth of oats.
Meadows which appear thin early
in the spring frequently improve
greatly by the middle of May if the
weather is favorable. Top-dressing
thin meadows in March or early
April with a nitrOgenous fertilizer,
such as sulfate of ammonia, nitrate
of soda. or cyanamid or complete
fertilizer high in nitrogen will fire.
Quently stimulate the growth ma
terially.
1t may be advisable to harvest
even small crop of hay, then plow
the sod at once, prepare a seedbed.
and SOW soybeans or Sudan grass.
Although the seeding will be a little
late for maximum crop, a yield of
one and half to two tons of hay
may be expected most seasons.
Oats cut for hay, if harvested
when kernels are in the milk to soft
dough stage and we'll cured, seem
to be relished by livestock. Oats or
wheat hay will usually be harvested
early enough that a crop of soy
beans or Sudan grass can be put i'll
late in June or early in July. The
feeding value of oat hay can be in
creased by sowing a mixture of Can
ada field peas and oats at the rate Of
a bushel and half of each per
mixture is the high cost of field per
seed
The best emergency hay crop
from the standpoint of feeding value
per ton and nutrients per acre is
soybeans. Numerous feeding trials
equal to alfalfa.
Other annual hay crops worth
consideration are Sudan grass, sor-
ghum, thickly planted corn, and
millet Millet is the least desirable
from the feeding standpoint, but
the fact that it can be sown in July
and harvested in September is an
advantage.
Many crops advertised as emer-
gency hay crops are practically
worthless in Ohio. 1t is well to
avoid such crops as kudzu, grohoma,
prose- or hog millet, crotalaria, GRIM
son clover, and, in general, all the

There are few famous families,
outside of royalty itself that per-

is true that John Adams, an early
