U. S. APPEARS DESTINED TO BE
FASHION CENTER OF WORLD

The United States stands on tie
Threshold of becoming the fashion
center of the world, and American
designers and manufacturers are de-
termined to lose none of the ground
they have gained in making the fash
ion industry the fourth largest in
the United States.
Topped only by food, oil and steel
industries, our infant fashion indus
try, so long stunted in it's growth be-
cause of the awe in which our manu-
facturers held the Partisan fashion
experts, is finally swelling it's biceps
and regarding the world fashion field
with the "I'm the champ" look, ac-
cording to an article by Alice Hughes
in the September issue of Cosmopoli-
tan.
One of the outstanding students of
fashion in the world, Miss Hughes
makes this prediction so far as the
future of American fashions is con-
cerned:
paris, London, Moscow, Buenos
Aires, Melbourne and all other world
Capitals Will lulIdLS tu0
Look far more eagerly than the
world ever tried to ape the models
of Pairs.''
Although the United States fash
ion industry received it's impetus
through the fall of France and the
destruction of the Partisan fashion
marts, it had been fighting for recog-
milton since the early 1920's.
CLEARLY we in America have
husky, lusty, thriving fashion baby,
thriving youngster who has passed
the creeping stage and is beginning
to stand firmly on his own feet" the
writer states. "Have we enough eslf-
confidence to bring this child up to
sturdy adulthood? Already our fash
ion baby has rewarded us handsome
ly in profits and prestige. Will our
manufacturers, retailers and consum-
ers support Loyalty this baby whose
talents were so definitely proven at a
time of stress?"

Do sulfonamide compounds affect
the teeth?
In answer to this query, the Jour-
nal of the American Medical Asso-
citation reports that there is no way
In which sulfanilamide or any Of
its compounds could affect the struc-
ture of the teeth or modify the proc
ess of dental decay. Regarding the
use Of vitamins to prevent or treat
dental decay, a number Of investi-
cations has proved that vitamins
are ineffective. The enamel of the
tooth, where the decay first begins,
does not have cells or blood vessels,
and therefore does not have the
power to rebuild or repair. The only
effective treatment for the decayed
tooth is the removal of the decay
and a filling replacement of the lost
structure.

Treating Seeds Insures
Good, Vigorous Growth

Long practiced by commercial
growers, seed treatment has been
found by victory gardeners to save
time, labor, money and seed as well
as the investment in garden space,
tools and fertilizer. It insures good
termination and vigorous, healthy
seedlings.
The method of treating seeds is
very simple. Small handy packets
of fungicides are available in seed
stores and contain enough of the
chemical dust to treat several
pounds of seed. The amount of dust
that can be held on the tip of a pen
knife blade-sufficient for quarter
ounce seed packets-is put into the
envelope with the seed and shaken
well. Pound and half-pound lots of
seed can be treated in glass fruit
jars.

SWEET CORN CAN BE SAVED BY
DRYING IN AIR OR OVEN

Drying offers a good method for
preserving corn - considered the
hardest vegetable to cam successfully
without a pressure canner, says Miss
Margaret McPheeters, nutrition spe-
cialist for the University of Mary
land extension service.
Pick only as much corn as can be
handled at one time, she advises, and
select ears in the milk stage, just
right for cooking. Husk the ears and
cut out defects. Boil the corn
to minutes, cut the corn from the
cob with a sharp knife and spread
evenly ON drying trays in kalf-inch
layers.
For sun-drying, lay thin cloth
over wire trays, window screens, or
slat trays, so air can circulate under
and over the corn. Cover the corn
with another thin cloth to keep out
insects and dirt. Place in the sun and
stir two or three times day. Be sure
to take trays in at night before the
dew falls, or shower.
For oven-drying, it is necessary to
have trays that fit the oven and al
low for air circulation. These may be
be made by stretching coarse netting
across wooden frames. Dry corn at
$50 degrees F., and a thermometer
is almost essential to control temper
ature. Leave oven door slightly ajar.
Stir the corn and turn the trays ev-
cry half hour. Watch carefully to
prevent scorching, particularly near
the end of the drying period, about
hours after the corn is put in the
oven.
Corn thoroughly dried is so brittle
that it skaters when hit with ham,
mer; test by pounding few grains.
Open the oven door after turning OF

Vaccinating for Pox, Roup

Chicken pox and roup are likely
to occur in any flock and for this
reason it is well to vaccinate. Four
precautions should be taken in vac
cinating:
/. Vaccinate pullets preferably
when they are two to three months
old.
2. Thoroughly mix powdered scab
material with water before using.
8. Do not confine pullets after vac
cinating. Give them a well-shaded
range.
4. Do not vaccinate birds suffering
from diseases or parasitic infesta-
ton, or heavy losses may occur.
Delay vaccination until the birds
have completely recovered from the
disease or are free from the para
site infestation.

De Luxe Motor Courts

The motor court is a purely
American phenomenon that came
into being to fill void in the motor
ing world and that developed into
an important service industry from
humble beginnings as camps"
where travellers might pitch their
tents overnight, or rent humble
shacks. The postwar motor court is
expected by building experts to Of.
fer more comfort, cleanliness and
convenience than even just before
the war, plus new safety through the
wider use of fireproof materials,
such as gypsum, suitable for every

Silk From Central America

Mexico, which was raising silk
worms experimentally In the 1870s
and 1880s, is now planning on silk
worm raising as national industry
which will employ thousands of ru-
raj workers. Cuba and Nicaragua
have also been looking into the pos
sibilities of sericulture.
Although silkworms can be raised
in some parts of the United States,
the silk culture as an industry is
not sufficiently profitable to the
North American farmer to tempt
him to give up his corn and pigs.
So this country will have to 60 on
importing silk.

We All Dress Alike Now

Democracy has been greatly stim-
ulated by mass production Of
clothes. Until comparatively recent
years a mans wealth and even his
occupation were easily recognized
by the clothes he wore Thirty years
ago only women of means had re-
course to high-priced dress makers
who styled dresses to the latest
Paris fashions. Modern machinery
and factory methods have changed
all this. Now clothes worn by men
and women of modest means close
ly resemble those worn by the most
wealthy.
