\ " upside- down. It Tfie farm woman’s most important clothes -are.the ones:she ‘wears most of the time—her house clothes. - House- wives’ clothes ghould be planned, and provided to fit their meed. It is as inconsistent to wear a broadcloth. skirt around the kitchen to bake, scrub and wash as it is for a teacher to teach school ‘in-a ball gown. Many women make a practice of " finishing up their street clothes, that is, wool dresses and suit skirts, by wearing them around the kitchen to work in. This is considered a stroke of economy by some. In the first place it is a very insani- tary practice, as a street costume is not designed for a work dress; it is not easily washed and frequently is worn a whole season to collect dust and dirt. Then it is put on when the housewife is baking, taking care of milk and making butter, It is not sanitary. As a rule, a wool dress is too warm to work in with comfort, as is even a wool skirt. As a matter of economy it is also doubtful. It weuld make a nice school dress or suit for a child if washed and made over and would give more valuable service in that capacity. i The woman in the kitchen should be wbove all things neat and clean and The Farm Woman’s Clothes comfortable. Some . people . seem to think that comfort means carlessness and sloppiness, but 1 should say that that is the last requirement of comfort. A simple, neat, washable dress is by all means the nicest and most sanitary kind of a house dress. Then it must be kept reasonably clean. A dress does not take so much longer to wash and iron than a large apron and if it is all in one piece with buttons on to fasten it, it goes | on quickly and easily and one is dressed when it is on. baggy. Dresses that button all the way down and can be placed flat on the ironing board are somewhat quicker to iron. Many people like very dark house dresses; they say they do not soil so quickly, but I believe they are just as dirty but you don’t know it. I like the light ones with fast colors so I can send them to remove stains or spots when necessary. Two dresses 2. week should keep a woman in good shape if she is at all careful about her work and these would not cause more work to wash and iron than two waists and half a-dozen aprons and they would look better and be more sanitary and comfortable and quite as economical. / x ‘This picture was taken a short time before the primaries at the farm home of "Miss Emma and Miss Alma Krutsen of Fargo, who had: gone to the farm near Kathryn for a week end stay.’ Both young women had been hearing much about the Nonpartisan League in Fargo, but they did not know that their brother, father and miost of their neighbors were members until théy ™ stepped off the train at the station. There they were greeted with one of the weather-beaten cloth-banners showing the picturcs of Frazier and the other League candidates, fastened to the back of their father’s auto, and had their pictures taken with it to show their Fargo friends. Miss Alma, seen at the right, is attending business college, and Miss Emma, left, is assistant in the ‘offices of Drs.

The voters of Dakota have spoken; = Right and justice again shall reign, The throne of the dollar has crumbled; The power of big business ebbs low; The fort of corruption has tumbled Before the strength of the farmers’ blow. The strife at the primary is over; The voters their-choice have made; e people are all in clover; Big business is much afraid. - It fears the power of the farmer; It knows he will use his might. . He will hearken no more to the charmer, - ‘But with joy wi}l continue the fight. The might of the toiler is strengthened By his choice this bright 'June day.
