The government of the United States has been writing to ‘the wives of American farmers. Fifty thou- sand letters have gone forth to the women of our farms from the sec- retary of agriculture. The honora- ble administration would like to know what is the matter with life on the farm. It is our humble opin- ion that it is now about to find out. Our American men are good hus- bands and good fathers. This is true of our farmers as generally as of the men of any other occupation. But our farmer husbands and our farr- er fathers have only lately come to understand that life on the “place” is drearier for every other member of the family than for him who is its head, says the Minneapolis Journal. Even “Father” could be happier than he is; but he feels practically noth- ing of that opposite to home-sickness which possesses the souls of farm wife and farm children. An official of a Minnesota asylum for the men- tally unsound spoke recently to a convention of women’s clubs. “More than half of our women subjects,” she said, “come from farms. Prac- tically all of them are sent back to the farms cured. What has cured them? Training the mind and hand to create something, preferably some- thing beautiful. When we send them home with this new faculty, they stay cured. Why is it we limit this teaching to those whose minds have given way?” Every diligent stu- dent of American morals is dismayed by the conditions at the cross roads. ‘What is the chief trouble here? Lack of diversion, deadly monotony, life emptiness. The boys do not so often land in the insane asylum. Some of them do worse. We Americans have got to enrich life on the farm if we would have our women and our boys content to stay there. Unless all signs fail, Secretary Houston will be told this in mighty plain English. And from Minnesota will come re- ports that a way out has been found. Down at New Ulm, not so long ago, a community of women was making lace. The workers would roll up the product of their nimble fin- gers, take it to the country store, and exchange it for sugar and cof- fee. Lace making was an “old coun- try” occupation. It was “behind the times.” Mother might keep at it but daughter would not. Today it is ylelding these same women thous- ands of dollars a year; daughter is content to stay at home and earn pretty clothes; new patterns have been introduced; New Ulm has a dis- tinctive place in the field-of modern applied art. This is the way out. Teach the women, the girls and boys to make things. Give them earning power. Enrich their lives with the spiritual stimulus of creating beauty. Help them play at something better than wasting time. Help them to find something better to do than com- plaining: “Gee whiz, it's lonesome out here.” Minnesota has found a means of helping. She alone among all the states of the union has un- dertaken this work systematically. ‘She has the only state art society in the United States. Not New Ulm alone, but thousand of farm houses, dozens of smaller towns and cities, ‘bear witness to its practical value in driving away the devils of life empti- ness.

Practical Fashion Hints Here we have a three gored skirt which. may be absolutely plain or made with a two-piece tunic as illus- trated. If the skirt is .desired for sports or outing wear, it is advisable to omit the tunic. For dressy occa- sions this tunic affords the necessar,” smart touch. The new outing cottons are slightly heavier than those in usc for the regular summer dress; among them is eponge, cote de cheval, hone;- comb crépe and numerous faney weaves. If the separate skirt is in- tended for dressy wear combined with a blouse of chiffon or lace, black taf- feta comes h...; silk poplin, garbar- Uine, striped or plain crépe, wor moire or faille are also popular, This skirt, No. 8292, requires for size 24, 3% yards 42-inch material. All of the silks mentioned above aver. age 40 inches in width, and are priced from $1.25 a yard and up. This pattern is cut in six sizes, 22 to 32. This is a Perfect Pattern. Be sure to give the right size, pass- ing the tape tightly around the small- est part of the waist and looselr around the widest part of the hips.

Minneapolis, May 20.—Minneapolis probably will be running its own ice plant within a few days. Should Mayor Nye find that-the | health of any citizen is in danger and that the companies cannot supply the demand he probably will seize the Cedar Lake ice plant and operate it. City Attorney Jackman believes that under such circumstances the mayor has the power to seize the plant and run it. - The strike of ice wagon drivers and handlers has brought about the present situation.
