It is the first time in the history of the state that a woman has been accorded the indorsement of a major political party for the United States senatorship, and Mrs. Oleson realizes she is making precedent. Mr. Oleson is superintendent of schools in n city of 8,000, a position he has held for eight years. They have a fourteen-year-old daughter. Mrs. Oleson is a club woman. She was president of the federated women’s club of the Eighth Minnesota district and then was chosen vice president of the Minnesota State federation of the General Federation of Women’s clubs. During the war, Mrs. Oleson made many patriotic talks, and was much In demand In Minnesota and adjoining states. When the war ended she went Into Chautauqua work, and lust summer toured 10,000 miles in an automobile with her family in this work. Mrs. Oleson is thirty-six years old. Slip was born in LeSeur county, Min nesota. Her father was P. D. Dickie, and both her paternal and maternal grandparents came to Minnesota as pioneers in 1856. Both her grandfathers fought in the Civil war. L. A. Hill, New Engraving Bureau Head Here is the latest portrait of Louis A. Hill, the new head of the bureau of engraving and printing, Treasury department. Washington is still talk ing of the action of President Har ding, who, in the most sweeping dis charge order in years, dismissed from the government service Director James L. Wilmeth and 27 division heads of the bureau. The fact that most of the men discharged were civil service em ployees may result in complications. The civil service commission called to the attention of the President to sections of United States statutes stat ing that no person In the 'classified civil service shall be removed except after being given the charges against him In writing and being given time to answer same in writing. At the same time it was said at the 11 department of justice unofficially that the executive order was legal. Hints of sensational disclosures to follow, involving serious monetary losses to the government, were pronounced to be unfounded by Assistant Secretary Elliot Wadsworth, who declared that there is nothing behind the sensational action of the President to reflect upon the integrity of the discharged men. Representative It. C. Johnson of South Dakota charged in the house that duplication of Liberty bonds would run as high as $400,000,000. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiMiitHiniiiminniini iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitmimiiiiiiiii Mary McDowell Visits Czechoslovakia wumiiniiminniiniiiitiinuiiiinni'ituiT Miss Mary McDowell of Chicago, well known as a student and worker in sociology, sailed for Czechoslovakia after the Pan-American conference for women in Baltimore. She will be the guest of President Masaryk and his daughters on a six-months’ vacation. While declaring that the journey was nominally a vacation In Czechoslovakia, taken at the instiga tion of Miss Alice Masaryk, Miss Mc Dowell admitted that she would not be idle during her stay in the re public, but would devote much time to the study of the position of women in the state. Probably a more exact statement of Miss McDowell’s trip to Europe Is that the government of Czecho slovakia has requested Miss McDowell to inaugurate and organize in that country the system of social settle ment work which she has directed so long and so successfully in Chicago. Miss McDowell will first visit Italy, und make a brief tour of the continent be fore taking up in July her work in Czechoslovakia. The invitation to Miss McDowell was extended through Dr. Bedrlch Ste- panek, the Czechoslovakian minister to the United States, who presented to the conference greetings from the women of his country. Bakhmeteff the Table Talk of Capital Senator Borah’s desire to have Russian Ambassador Bakhmeteff (por trait herewith) before a senate com mittee is the table talk of the mo ment in the capital. Outwardly, it is a simple proposal to have Mr. Bakhmeteff tell the senators what he knows about the conduct and alleged atrocities of General Semenoff, the Cos sack leader, In Siberia. Incidentally, Senator Borah wants to get the am bassador to give details about what government he represents. But under the surface there is something deeper and more far-reach ing—something which one set of minds contends goes back to the wisdom of the framers of the Constitution and, on the other hand, something which another set of minds contends ought to be viewed in the light of changing conditions and progress. The diplomats are deeply dis turbed in two ways. Some of them are fearful of a breakdown of-their ancient rights and immunities. Some oth ers, although they do not say so, Indicate they would not be displeased at a precedent which might establish the propriety of having direct intercourse with officials of the government outside the executive branch. As the matter stands,now, Secretary Hughes hah Informed the senate that Mr. Bakhmeteff is the ambassador of Russia and that a subpoena cmao* b< served haling him before a congressionl committee. SEX OF EGGS AND CHICKENS Department of Agriculture Says There Is No Dependable Method to Determine Sex. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Raisers of poultry have long wished for a reliable means for determining the sex of chicks and of eggs to be used for hatching, but, in spite of the promise of vnrious manufacturers of devices, the United States Department of Agriculture says there Is no very dependable method for determining the sex of chicken that a certain egg will produce, and that It is extremely diffi cult to determine the sex of chicks of most breeds. The department has made tests of a number of devices claimed bv the Barred Plymouth Rock Cockerel. makers to give good results In sorting out male, female and Infertile eggs. In all cases they have been found to be useless for the purpose, as two persons could never get the same re sult with a lot of eggs, and hatching tests showed that one could do just ns well by closing his eyes and picking out the eggs at random. On account of the difference in the color of the down of the sexes it is often possible to select with consid erable accuracy the hens and cockerels of the Barred Plymouth Rock as soon as they are hatched, but in the case of most other breeds and varieties this selection cannot be made with any cer tainty until some time later. Those who know the breed well are able to distinguish between the sexes of Leg horns when they are three to four weeks old. The sexes of the medium- weight breeds, with the exception glv- «n above, have the same appearance until the chicks are 10 or 12 weeks old. The surface sex differences in the Asiatic breeds are not as apparent up until the birds are three or four months old. There may be differences that will make it possible to sort the sexes earlier, but so far poultrymen have found no reliable basis for selection. GREAT IMPORTANCE OF OATS Used in Ration of Growing Chick It Does Much to Build Up Strong Frame and Muscle. The importance of oats In the poul try ration cannot well be overlooked. It forms the backbone in many rations. It is chiefly important in the growing ration for young chicks, for it will grow frame and muscle more eco>- nomically than any other grain. Steel- cut oats, rolled oats, or growing mash es having ground oats or oatmeal as a base are exceptionally economical feeds for growing stock. Fed in con nection with buttermilk, it makes the best growing ration now known. Of course, a grain mixture should be fed for variety.

PLAN TO SELECT GARMENTS THAT ARE MOST SUITABLE FOR WOMEN Figure on left is garbed in simple blouse and skirt. These may be adapted to any figure and with slight changes in sleeve, collar and fullness of skirt are always in good style. The design in the middle is for a tall, slender woman; the costume is divided into three distinct parts to lessen the apparent height, and horizontal tucks are used to suggest width. The design on the right is for the stout woman; the long straight lines suggest height and the surplice front and curve of the side panel tend to decrease the apparent breadth of the figure. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Women’s clothing requires more careful thought than that for men and children. The intermediate type of figure is not difficult to clothe attrac tively, but the more extreme types, the slender and the stout, need careful attention. Once a woman has decided on the type of design which suits her best, she should choose clothing which in general lines is always the same. Monotony can be avoided by using different materials and trimmings. Such garments may usually be kept in good style by slight changes in sleeves, collar and fullness of the skirt. For very tall, slight people, designs should be chosen that suggest round ness and normal height. Soft, full blouses, full skirts, and draped ef fects are good; if the height seems too great, horizontal lines brought into the costume by means of flounces, bands and tucks will tend to reduce it. Plaids and figured materials with large areas of design are admissible on a slight, tall figure; also soft, deep- pile stuffs for coats, and bright, shirn- mery, lustrous materials are good. Design for Stout Figure. For the stout figure, designs could be chosen tliat sliggesit height and slen derness. Loose, easy-fitting garments with straight, unbroken lines suggest height. Lines that ‘carry the eye to the center of the figure will diminish its breadth. No lines should carry di rectly ucross the figure, for they seem to lessen the height and increase the breadth of the figure. Separate waists and skirts, unless the waist is of the same color as the skirt or is so ad justed as to fall over the skirt, will tend to broaden the figure and dimin ish the height. A surplice line for the opening of the waist is good; nar row girdles draped loosely about the figure, crossed in the back and brought to the front again with one end looped over the other, suggest height. The stout woman should choose soft, nonlustrous materials, such ns crepe de chine, crepe georgette, serge, gabar dine, voile and batiste. Plaids and large-figured materials are out of the question and stripes should be cau tiously chosen. Colors should be avoided that make the lines of the figure stand out prominently, clothing experts in the United States Depart ment of Agriculture affirm in a recent bulletin on selection and care of cloth ing. Taupe, gray and dark blue are usually best in this respect, but all dull, dark colors are safer than light or bright ones. Suit Colors to Wearer. Colors should be carefully chosen not only in relation to the figure but in reference to the complexion,, color of the hair and eyes of the wearer as well. There is no general rule by which one can choose becoming colors. Therefore, one must rely on one’s own taste, judgment and experience. In general, women with fresh, clear com plexions find a greater range of be coming colors than others who have little color, but patient experimenta tion will discover those which fi|'e be coming to either type. It is safe to choose such colors £ts are in harmony with the color of the eyes, hair and complexion. Dark blue is a universally becoming color. Taupe, dark blue, black and gray in which violet predominates are good colors to be used by the woman who is stout. Bright aggressive colors make the stout figure seem larger. Bright gay colors may be chosen for the young, slight girlish figure, but always with a thought to the general coloring. BREAKFAST CEREALS ARE EASILY COOKED Old-Fashioned Methods Are Now Less Common. Cornmeal Mush Is One of Dishes Early New England Settlers Copied From Indian Neighbors —Pop Corn Is Relished. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) In early times there were many wuys of preparing grains and meal, such as frumenty and the good King Arthur’s famous “bag pudding.” The partly cooked and reudy-to-eat cereals have become so popular in recent years that the old-fashioned methods of cooking grains are now less com mon. The ingenious housekeeper can, however, vary her breakfast cereuls by the use of simple meals or grains, say food specialists of the United States Dep4tment of Agriculture. Une of the dishes which the early New England settlers pruoubly copied from their Indian neighbors is the homely corn-meal mush, or hasty pud ding. This is made of boiling ordi nary cornmeal in milk or water. If properly cooked, it is u nutritious and economical dish and has the advan ce-dear to the thrifty housewife— that the left-over portion will be relished if cut in slices und fried. Another popular way of using cer tain varieties of corn Is as pop corn. This cannot be strictly termed a breakfast food, but it is frequently eaten with milk, like other cereal preparations. If the task of cooking must be con sidered, and strict economy is neces sary, crackers in milk may be substi tuted for the ready-cooked breakfast cereals. Crackers are similar to regular breakfast foods in composi tion, and at average prices furnish more nourishment for the same amount of money. Nor should it be forgotten that as a rational, palatable, and economical dish, bread and milk ranks high. USING STALE BREAD There need be no waste of stale bread. For bread that is not allowed to become moldy may be used in a variety of ways, discarding only the brown crusts and these are sometimes dried, crushed and used in grid dle cakes. Small bits of leftover bread, slices that have become too dry for use as toast, crou tons and such like, should be dried in the warming oven, cov ered with a piece of cheese cloth to protect them from dust, then passed through a meat chopper and sifted. The fine crumbs are used for crumbling croquettes, cutlets, etc., and the coarse crumbs for the top of au gratln dishes. Such crumbs should be stored in glass jars and they will keep a long time if placed in a cool dry place.
