Everything else has a brief career and is sure to be lost, so the list of detachable belongings, for the very little miss, may well be brief. But she rejoices in hair bows npd hair bands of ribbon, combs, berets, sashes, sweaters and a little jewelry, besides mittens, leggings and muffs, In winter- of embroidery, vary the simple ward robe of little-ladles. Wherewithal shall we be clothed for those hours of the day spent within the walls of home and the bosom of the family—or other In timates? It all depends upon how we must occupy ourselves during these hours and therefore design ers of negligees have made a wide variety of garments, keeping In mind that it is the mission of such apparel to be decorative and cheerful. In- H A IR BOWS AND RIBBONS FOR T H E L I T T L E MISS time, and adorable bonnets and hats all the time. We must concede to French design-- ers the happiest faculty for making lovely clothes for children. They are using cashmere and wool crepe for dresses and broadcloth for both coats and dresses. On the coats one Is apt to find narrow fringes of monkey fur, outlining bands on the sleeves or body of the coat, and a tiny muff of the same fur—to go with the coat. Rows of little buttons, In a contrasting color, decorate bands of material, and adorn coats and hats to match. These same designers made much of leggings that are fastened with n row of small but tons up the side of the- leg. They are splratlon is drawn from many sources; for the fancy of crentors has a free range when it roams In search of Ideas. For the first hours of the day! nothing lias superseded tne light-col ored breakfast coats of silit (usually taffeta) adorned with ruflles and frills of silk or of lace. Of course the graceful, side tie fastening was appro priated by the makers of negligees and it proves an additional attraction in these dainty coats. Darker silks are chosen for pullman robes and they are rivaled by mercerized cotton cor duroy In the better qualities. One oi these Is shown in the picture and s.erves the same purpose as the hrenkfast coat or the kimono. These N E G L IG E E W I T H SIDE T I E FAS TE N IN G needed with the very short dresses and coats that leave the little tot near ly all legs. As a decorative feature for little folks’ clothes, nothing is more used than ribbon which makes sashes and girdles and ties and trims frocks. Scalloped flounces, edged into narrow ribbons, bands, festoons and bows of it applied to frocks, flower and frnit motifs, cat out and used in the place corduroys make very handsome robes and coats, with the suppleness and luster of silk, and they sell at a low price. They are shown in such rich shades as rose, orchid purple, French blue and henna and some of them have thin, silky linings, matching them In color. In more pretentious negligees of georgette, crepe de chine, timed laces and the like, designers follpw classic lines In the silhouette and are devoted to the long and graceful wing sleeve. Pale colors are used and new style points appear in side drnperles or draperies drawn to the middle of the front, in the Egyptian manner. ¿ d e a s c . « 3 - 1921, Weitara Newspaper tinto a.)

Co-operative associations will mar- Breliminary Report of New Pest Just Issued Insect Credited With Favor ing Potato and Tomato. ket..considerably more farm products In' 1923 than they did last year, it Is indicated in reports to the Department of Agriculture. While it is impossible to -estimate how much business they will do, the fact that new associations are being formed and old ones en larged is ground for the belief that the amount of the year’s crops to be marketed co-operatively will exceed all former figures. \> A big factor in promoting cooperative marketing Is the Improvement made in credit facil ities recently. First steps toward better credit ac commodation for cooperatives were taken In 1921, when congress enlarged the powers of the War Finance cor poration. Up to date that organiza tion has authorized advances to c o operatives amounting to more than $190,000,000. Although only $38.500.000 of the money has been actually used, the fact that It was available has been a powerful beneficial Influence, say officials of the department. Opening Lines of Credit. ' Many co-operative associations are opening up lines of credit at the new Intermediate credit banks, because the War Finance corporation will cease making advances on February 29 next. It Is believed the new institutions will function much as the War Finance corporation has done in giving confi dence and loosening up additional out side-credit. They have already au thorized advances of about $5,000,000 to farmers’ co-operative associations handling cotton,- wheat, wool, tobacco and canned fruits. It is pointed out that the real serv ice of the Intermediate credit banks, like that of the War Finance corpora tion, cannot be measured merely by thé volume of their discounts or ad vances. Their chief value is seen in the fact that the credit made available by them often Induces or encourages private financial institutions to offer credit accommodation, when otherwise they might stand aloof. The Intermediate credit bnnks seem likely nevertheless to operate soon on a bigger scale than was expected. Each of the twelve institutions was provided with a capital of $1,000,000 from the treasury immediately it was organized. Five of them have since called for additional capital to a total amount of $5,000,000, so that the present paid-in capital of the twelve banks Is $17,000,000. Moreover, an is sue of debentures to the amount of $f0.000,000 has been sold in anticipa tion of a large demand for discounts and advances in the coming marketing season. Discounts of agricultural pa per for banks have been made to the amount of $1,000,000 by the Intermedi ate credit institutions. (Prepared by the United States Department' of Agriculture.) A preliminary account of the Aus tralian tomato weevil, a new Insect pest recently discovered, hns just .been issued by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture as Department Circular 282, by F. H. Chittenden of the bureau of entomology. While the Insect is credited as favoring the po tato and tomato as food, It is also a rather general feeder, the department finds, and expresses the belief that it may become of great Importance like the sweet-potato weevil unless meas ures are taken for its suppression. As to control measures, the circular snys much remains to be lenrned. In confinement, lead arsenate sprayed on tomatoes killed all the beetles within 24 hours. Reports of the successful use of lead arsenate in practical field work with potatoes and turnips have been received by the department. Ap plications of spray for other Insect pests, when the beetles or larvae of the tomato weevil are present, It is believed, may control the tomato weevil also. Calcium arsenate would probnbly be equally effective either ns a dust or spray and n little cheaper than lead arsenate. It Is not unlikely, the circular says; that the distribution of poisoned baits would be effective. Copies of the circular may be had, as long as the supply lasts, by writing to the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. Limiting Loans. For the present, the federal farm loan board, which supervises the banks, is limiting loans and discounts to terms of nine months. Borrowers, however, have the practical assurance that the terms will be renewed when necessary. Reliance on renewals from the intermediate credit banks, accord ing to ofllclnls of the Department of Agriculture, has a stronger justifica tion than Is the case where loans of commercial banks are concerned, be cause tlie latter are always under the obligation of protecting their deposit liabilities. Although financing of co-operative associations probably will call for con siderably more money this year than ever before, managers of such asso ciations are confident all necessary ac commodation will be available. They report that bankers all over the coun try áre readily taking co-operative pa per. One co-operative organization leader in Arizona says many associa tions in that state have not needed to borrow from the War Finance cor poration or the intermediate credit banks, because ample funds have been available to them from private bank ers on very favorable terms. Keep Farm Water Supply Free From Contamination The first essential of a supply of drinking water Is that it be free from contamination and disease. Hence, if there is any doubt it should be an alyzed. To keep the water pure the source of contamination should be re moved and the well, spring, or what ever the source should be made as near proof as possible egalnst the en trance of anything that would con taminate the water. In case of a bored or dug well there should be several feet of puddled clay packed around the walls eight to twelve feet deep. This Insures that any surface water entering must be filtered through at least ten feet of soil. The well plat form should extend ten or twelve Inches above the level of the ground and should be made water tight, con crete preferred. If concrete cannot be had, use tongue and grooved planks. Be sure that the ground slopes gradu ally away from the well so that no puddles of water can stand. I have seen in this state wells that were open and puddles of water next to the well where ducks and pigs wal low. This Is a source of danger and should be corrected -before it is too late. Outhouses and especially those with excavated pits and cesspools should never be placed near the well or spring. In fact, neither of these should be used. Either a sanitary »toilet or a septic tank should be used Instead. It is only a matter of a little money and the use of some spare time to have the farm home sanitary and have a good, pure supply of water for drink ing purposes.—By W. H. McPheeters, Extension Farm Engineer, Oklahoma A. and M. College. Wide Area Covered Last Year in Barberry Fight An area equivalent to 200 counties was covered during the last fiscal year In the farm-to-farm survey for bar berry bushes. This is one step In the fight against wheat rust which is be ing carried on by the United States Department of Agriculture In co-oper ation with state agricultural colleges, state departments of agriculture, and the conference for the prevention of grain rust. The work consisted of a survey and resurvey for sprouting bushes and seedlings. It was carried on in Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Ne braska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. In all, 740,855 bashes were removed from 6,799 properties in the preliminary sur vey while 66,670 sprouting bushes and 9,138 seedlings were destroyed in the follow-up campaign. Since the beginning of the barberry eradication work in 1918 practically all cities and villages of the thirteen states within the quarantine area have been surveyed. In the original farm-to- farm survey an area equivalent to 484 counties has been covered, Including i>9 counties surveyed on funds fur nished by states. In the five years a total of 5,234,946 bushes and seedlings fcave been destroyed on 53,610 prop erties. Common Mistakes Made in Feeding Live Stock A recent investigation of feeding methods practiced by 457 farmers whose average experience covers a pe riod of twenty years, shows that the most common mistake made in feed ing Is the use of poor combinations of feeds. Underfeeding ranks second, the two occurring more than four times as often as any of the others which follow in order of Importance; insufficient protein, lack of water, lack of legumes, abrupt changes of feed, poor housing, parasites and Insect pests, insufficient salt, waste of feed, poor equipment and overfeeding. Fortunately the mistakes are largely within the control of the feeder and may be avoided. At the same time the above Investi gation was being made a check was taken on • how progressive farmers were improving their feeding methods. A particular interest was found in balanced rations. The next most im portant improvement was more lib eral feeding followed by feeding of more legumes, better water supply, giving minerals to live stock, feeding according to production, feeding more protein and more regular feeding. Dairymen consulted evidently keep close accounts with their cows. Eighty- one per cent feed according to pro duction while the rest feed all tlieir cows alike. Tighten Hoops on Silo to Avoid Air Leakage If you have a wooden silo, be sure to tighten -the hoops before you start filling to avoid possible air leakage. Should the staves be unusually dry at the time of tightening, loosen them a trifle after the silo is filled to avoid breaking some of the hoops. Should the corn get too dry before filling time, arrange to run a stream of water Into the blower. A considerable amount of moisture can be gotten Into the silage In that way. The important thing is to have the silage moist enough to pack well. There Is practically no danger of getting too much moisture in the com. Is there a smoker in the audience who can answer this one? Nearly every smoker is particular >Vl about the kind of tobacco that goes into his pipe. While he may smoke a pipeful from a friend’3 pouch for the sake of companionship, for day-in-and- day-out smoking he prefers his own brand. And yet if you ask the average smoker what it is he likes about his tobacco* he may have difficulty in answering you immediately. Mr. Joe Rivers, whose letter fol lows, is a confirmed Edgeworth smoker. In attempting to describe what he likes about Edgeworth, he coins the word “ tasty-smellfulness.” But as this does not entirely satisfy him, he puts the question up to other Edgeworth smokers. Larus & Brother Company, Richmond, Va. Gentlemen: Being a pipe smoker of no mean experi ence (having tried most pipes and pipo to baccos) .I'vo -watched your smoknrs' let ters in the magazines for some explanation of a tasto that for me applies only to Edgeworth. It is extremely difficult to describe this, because it seems to come as the smoko filters through the mouth and nostrils at the end of a draw from tho pipe— a sort of combined “ tasty-smellfulness*' that moat satisfies the smoko appetite. Why don't you get some of your smok ers who can write, to describe this? Sincerely yours, (Signed) Joe Rivera Probably there IbesBSjSftSj ! a r a any number of reasons why men smoke Edgeworth. One friend actually admitted he smoked it because his wife liked the shape of the Edgeworth glassjarstofiton her pantry shelf. However, the one outstanding feature of Edge- worth, as seen by most smokers, is its uniformity. Year after year, smok ers can be sure of getting the same high-grade quality of tobacco. There are no changes in the b len d - no variations in the flavor or fra grance. It is always a good smoke. If you have not tried Edgeworth send your name and address to Larus & Brother Company, 76 South 21st Street, Richmond, Va. They will be glad to mail to you some free samples, generous helpings of both Edgeworth Plug Slice and Ready-Rubbed. Then you can smoke a few pipefuls and see if Edgeworth agrees with your smoking tempera ment. If you will also include the name and address of your regular tobacco dealer, your courtesy will be appre ciated. To Retail Tobacco Merchants: If your jobber cannot supply you with Edgeworth, Larus & Brother Com pany will gladly send you prepaid by parcel post a one- or two-dozen carton of any size of Edgeworth Plug Slice or Ready-Rubbed for the same price you would pay the jobber.
