Small plate dollias are easier to laun der thun large tablecloths, and crocheted dollies, or those made of the oilcloth that comen for the purpose, do not need any Ironing.

Shirts with plain soft bosoms and soft cuffs have practically superseded those with stiff or plaited boaoma and stiff cuffs, and are undoubtedly easier to iron. Blouses and dresses with simple flat trimmings are more easily ironed than elaborate By using washable silk blouse! and dresses for school, college or business, the wearer can look neat with less laundering than with cotton or linen ones. Chil dren’s dresses of dark brown, dark blue or sateen, with gay-colored ap pllqued trimmings, worn with bloom ers to match, are much In vogue at the present time. They have the advan tage of looking clean and presentable much longer than other wash clothes and ure nevertheless easy to laundef whenever It Is necessary. POP CORN MAKES AN EXCELLENT CEREAL Suggested as Good for Sun day Supper at Home. (Tr.p.r.a t >T th« United Stntw Dap.rtm.nl •I Agriculture.) Though corn meal Is now used In other parts of the world, pop corn seems still to be a peculiarly Amer ican product. White, fluffy kernels of popped corn have been found among prehistoric Indlun remains In South America and also specially shaped earthenware Implements with a de pression In the center and a long han dle, evidently the equivalent of our modern corn poppers. In olden days In this country the grains were some times thrown on the hot coals, where they burst and bounded back on the floor for the children to scramble after. Though pop corn la most often eaten between meals as a sort of food acces sory, it has a food value similar to that of the same weight of corn pre pared In other ways. It makes an ex cellent breakfast cereal aerved with milk or cream, and Is so used In many families. The United States Depart ment of Agriculture suggeets thut a good supper for u Sunday at home Is corn popped over the open fire and served hot with melted butter or with milk and a little salt, and perhaps with apples or other fruit as a finish.

For my own part, I can see 7* netting to be gained at this time by our belittling in any way the asBistdri/e that France gave to the colonists in the days of trial in their troublje with England. I agree with the senator from Maryland that, without the aid of France the Revolution would have failed or, if not, it would have been prolonged for many years. Her service and her help to us were almost as valuable as our service and our help to her during the late war. Neither can I see anything to be gained on the part of France by belittling the assistance that we rendered in the World war to her, for, as suggested yesterday, we did help to save her life. Let me add that 1 agree absolutely that France has waited all too long and that she ought to make a proposition for settlement of the debt and make it now in order that the talk of repudiation may be stopped for all time. 5?5 T h -1 By W.A.

By this we do not mean a few apple or peach trees that are covered in scab or scale and produce from three to six apples or peaches per year. We mean a real orchard where the house wife can go and get fresh fruit for the table or to preserve for winter use, where the childern can go for fruit instead of worry ing mother to death for money to buy such fruit that can be grown at home at a very low cost. It would be a very easy matter for each home to have an acre set side for the home orchard and set with the fruits that are adapted to this section of the state. Not only one variety of fruit, but all that are wanted in the homq. Where peaches are wanted it will be desirable to not plant all in one variety but have the orchard planted in several varieties that will ripen at different times of the summer. The same is true of apples, plant such variety as to have summer apples and also winter apple. The real importance of a home orchard cannot be overestimated. It will save the expenditure of many dollars, and make the win ter meals much easier planned. Where canned fruit is available it is an easy matter to make pas tries, desserts and ects, while if this fruit is not available it will have to be bought or else done without. Why not begin now to think about that home orchard and plan to put out a small acreage this fail. The county agent wilt be glad to render any service pos sible and to help you plan your planting. Now do not go into project unless you are plan ning to give it some care and at tention. Trees like cotton must have some attention hut where they are given a little care they will more than pay for it all. The expense that is involved will be small in propotion to the returns where properly cared for. The only expense befoe they begin to return a profit will be the pur chase of the trees and a little spray material. When planning the orchard try and include all fruits that are 0 f /value, but do not plant any fruit that is susceptible to any desease over which we have no control for instance we find that p ear blight very bad and it is nearly impossible to prevent it Hn i ess we plant the Pineapple pear which is immuned to this clisease. A good many fruits are like this and it takes time and at _ tention to work thes - ■ things out as they should be. position if vou are interested in tliis get in touch with the agent and lets make a co-opera tive order for these trees and get a discount on them. Every farm home in the county should be in terested and really push this pro ject through to the end. Lets no be satisfied with anything less than a home orchard on every farm in the county. Not only should we consider the fruits but the nuts come in to play a very important part. Pe cans could be very easily planted in the fence corners and along hedge rows. Why give this soil over tn weeds when it could be made to return a profit. There should be at least six pecan trees on every home lot and the cost would be a minor thing com pared to the returns from these trees within a few years. Pecans are more in demand now than ever, 40 to 75 cents were the prices paid for nuts last year and still the demand exceeded the sup ply. Now is the time to begin, plant pecans in those waste places around the house and eliminate the expense of hoeing weeds and the purchase of nuts For Xmas every year. C.W.C. From Warrenton Clipper.
