WAR ON COSTLY FASHIONS Tlio United States professes prldo In Its own Individuality. All tlio mirao It Is constantly copying tho Old World. Paris fashions havo a lita- tor, probahly mostly mental, that no nattvo costumcr can Impart. Just now new social currents of fl far reaching force arc gathering up strength as outgrowths of the war. Ono of tlio new Ideas Is reported ef- fort of the German government to BJ restrict future fashions for more cc- onouiy of material.

All the warring powers nave urged their people to dress simply. Exhausted Europe will have little money nftcr tho war to wasto on futllo stylo changes. Will this affect American It seems Inappropriate that America Ay should continue to trim Itself In tho changing alternations of Its peacock feathers, with Europe wearing Its somber and slmplo black. Also fash- Ion Is big Part of our high cost of living in tho discarding of clothes! beforo they aro half worn out. It women change styles frequently to niako themselves nttracttvo to men, It largely falls of Its effect.

Men do not know what Is correct style, and what Is not. I BS Tho old time womnn Binlrked and i simpered and languished beforo tho Bl lords of creation, hoping that they would fall cnptlvo to her coquettish charms. The modern woman Is mora Independent of mnscullno approval or Bl disapproval.

In that respect they succeed.

While tho fair lady Is uttering her honoyed words, BB her critical oyo Is wandering over BB i the details of her friend's appear nnco. Somo women can ignore sole-' B. clsms, but It takes Arm principles to do it. And it will tnko resolution to throw down too frequent stylo chang-, BB es. Hut If tho leaders of society BB would set the fashion of not having so mnny fashions, it would go, BB EYE TROUBLE IN MODERN LIFE A Washington dispatch announces that President Wilson has just mndo one of his regular trips to I'hlladol- BB phla to consult his oculist.

Appar- BB ently ho Is ono of that great num- BB bcr of peoplo for whom a regular cx BB amlnatlon of tho eyes has becomo BB necessity. Much reading and work under artlllclal light and Imperfect Illumination theso common condl- BB tlons lmvo produced race subject BB to cyo diseases. BB Our fathers and grandfathers con- BB suited tho family doctor or tho loc- BB nl watchmaker who kept spectacles BB as a sldo lino, If convinced that BB eyesight was falling.

BB They would look over tho baskotfull BB of glasses that ho carried, nnd scloct BB tho pair that seemed to feel best. BB Today In tho largo cities wholo col- A oy of oculists has grown up with BV waiting rooms tilled with patients. It Is pathetic to sec tho tunny chll- BB dren that suffer fiom eye troublo. BB Krcnuently ono observes them on tho BB btreet holding a book close to their BB eyes. Thero hnvo been many cases BB where children seemed stupid in Bb ecIiouI merely because thoy woro too near sighted to seo tho blackboard.

BB Tho teacher never thought of giving BB them a seat whero they could sec tho work tho class was doing. It always seems unfortunate for BB boy to havo to wear It BB holds him back from tho rough and BB tumble of boy lifo. If tho othor boys BB pitch on him, ho can hardly retail- BB ato until ho tins put his glasses out of tho way.

But llfo long trouble may result from falluro to wear them.

Tcachors and parents should look carefully for early Indications of such defects and get good advlco about them. ROUGH HOUSE POLITICS There wns a suggestion of tho good old times In tho dispatch from tho Muskogee county, Oklahoma, Itopub-llcan convention tho other day. Two rival factions tried to hold tho convention In tho same hall. Personal encounters resulted, and ono chair- man was arrested, charged with car- I rylng concnlcd wenpons. That this kind of thing Is comparatively rare shows somo amendment of political manners.

Many of us recall when In certain districts nearly every cnucus and convention meant a free fight. Tho manly art of self defenso was a much better equipment than any Intelligence gained from the reading about tho candidates. Of course political lighting blood has not yet died out. Hut primaries and conventions aro conducted in a moro regular manner. Formerly It was customary in many localities simply to placo box on the platform and Invite nil who professed faith to march up and cast a ballot.

If they cast throo or four each, whllo they were about It, it might get by. Tho voting list was frequently not used, nnd repenting wns more or less easy. In tough localities, cries of fraud nroso soon after the was opened. The justlco of the claim was settled by fistic proceedings. Political gangs hired out to tho best payers and wero challenged only by superior pugilistic skill.

Today most states havo strict nomination laws, which go to the 'other extremo of elaboration In order to prbvent fraud. Tho business of nominating a candldato has becomo complex. Only tho professionals can fully keep In touch with tho provisions of tho law. Tho impromptu movements of amateurs uro apt to strike the snag of Bomo technicality. Hut at least nominating meetings havo bo-como moro orderly nnd freo from frauds.

Twenty yenrB ngo no such incident as this Muskegco convention would hnvo been telegraphed all ov-i er. That kind of thing was too common to bo nows. NAPOLEON REDIVIVU3 After a century of tlmo Nnpolcm is still tho arch militarist and his I renown, far from boing eclipsed by tho present conflict seems to bo oven greater "'an over. Tho greatest political and military phenomenon since Censnr, ho Is tho patron saint of tho soldier of nil countries. Even in Germany whoso pet bcto nolr ho I vns for.

docades, his cult has boon oluvnted Into almost a religion. The two most rtmnrknblo of wnr books, I that of tho Gorman General SUtt nnd of Von dor Goltz, teem with references to Napoleon nnd tho lessons to be learned from his strategic. And tho English, who saw to it that nc died an Ignomluous death In exile, aro not nbovo learning from him nl this tlmo. Thoro Is consolation in tho fact that hatred Is not immortal. Tlmn seems to soften all hatreds, to on-banco great loves.

So many of tho world's saints and heroes havo been tho victims of hatred nnd persecution, from Christ himself to tho pros-cnt dny. Joan of Arc, onco burned at tho stako by tho invading British, is now as sincerely' revered in England as in Franco. And Napoleon, onco hated of tho world, still runs Its wars from tho gravo not only Inspires tho French army now, but furnishes tho main strategy for Franco's enemies and allies altko. Tho body of Napoleon died of ncuto dyspopHla In oxllo but his spirit lives on nnd seems to havo accomplished its nmbltlon to rule tho world. If Napoleon was condemned to suffer remorBO for his ambitions, his purgatory must bo dlro.

For tho fruits of his deeds live on to poison thu world. Los Angeles Times. Thero is only ono way to mlulmlzo tho work of tho knocker nnd that Is to snub htm.

Van Benthuysen. The pormnncnt climbing plants and the annuals havo a decided placo on tho home grounds. They fill a place that trees, shrubs nnd flowers cannot. Thoy not only screen unsightly objects, but serve ns a shade, a protection, and when trained carefully over outbuildings, stnno walls and porches thoy help to mako a picture of tho home surroundings. Three of tho best clinging vines arc' tho Boston Ivy, English ivy nnd tho trumpet vine.

The moonflowor nnd cypress and canary bird flowers aro other beautiful vines, ensily grown. To start tho seed of Moonflowor and Morning Glory cut tho seed a llttlo on ono sldo and soak overnight In wnrm water, plant in a window box or seedbed and transplant out of doors when tho ground Is wnrm. Wild cucumbers and Japanese or native hop aro hardy vines and make a denso green shade.

Hyacinth bean is also very pretty and a profuso bloom er. Never allow vines to grow up over tho house. Placo a trellis at least two feet from tho houso wall to allow freo circulation of air. This applies to all kinds of climbers; as soon as thoy bogln to form runners glvo them a support Sweet peas and nasturtiums form excellent low, ornamental screens. Planted onrly, in a rich soli thoy will grow to tho height of fivo or six feet and cover a support of that height Decayed vegetable matter and leaf mold aro flno fertilizers for tho sweet pea.

IQSAN UTAH EFFECT OF STORM8 ON HEN8 Every poultry breeder knows that tho day following a blizzard show a big decrease in egg production. The following note from tho Storrs station will apply to all flocks: "Last Sunday's blizzard was the worst yet, so far as tho hens aro concerned. Tho high wind found llttlo cracks and crevices here and thero. and drove tho snow through into the house, thus rendering tho litter no longer fit to uso. Such storms do not lessen tho high cost of keeping hens, as dryness of the floors and of-tho scratching material is a factor of prlmo importance.

Manynn amateur i poultryman has taken a chanco on the question of dampness, simply becauso tho poultry houso could bo constructed a llttlo more cheaply, but they all discover sooner or later that It is a short sighted policy. Damp, poorly ventilated houses aro not a good investment. FEED DRY COW8 AND HEIFERS Tho feeding of tho dry cows and heifers that must build up tho frames and glvo constitutional vigor to the young calves is tho true foundation of improved dairy cows. Yet tho aver-ago dairyman feeds his pregnant cows' and heifers tho refuse of his farm. Tho best hay, wheat bran and Unseed oil meal is fed to cows that aro giving milk.

Tho very elements that aro needed by cows at this period are withheld. Carbonaceous foods, which glvo heat and fat, aro but little needed to supply nourishment to tho fetus, Slmplo material to build up bones, muscle and blood, during the rapid growth and development is needed to nourish tho unborn calf.

4,000 YEAR OLD WHEAT Dallas, Texas, April 1. When the late John Cardwoll of Austin was United States consul at Cairo, Egypt ho sent to his old friend, Colonel F. P. Holland of Dallas, a small quantity of 'wheat that ho had taken from tho tomb of ono of the ancient kings in nowly explored ruins upon the banks of tho Nile. This wheat was known to bo moro than 4000 years old.

To all outward appearances tho wheat is Just as sound as tho day It was flayed from the head in tho long ago, when tho earth was inhabited by a civilization that is now forgotten. Tho grains aro plump and largo, "I Jiavo been told that tho grains would probably germlnato If planted, but I havo never tried any of them," said tho Colonel.
