The matching green crepe jacket,
fastened only at the waist, is
embroidered with a white scroll
motif.
For immediate wear clinging,
cooling striped jersey is considered
a fabric ideal. See this beloved jersey made up in a stunning dress,
posed in the foreground to the left.
Be assured that there's high style
news told in this distinctively smart
jersey spectator sports dress, which
comes from Chicago Fashion Industries. The fact that both broad and
narrow stripes contrasting navy and
white are used in the styling of this
gown adds greatly to its interest.
The high round neck, the unique
contrast of the yokelike treatment
and the brief sleeves, achieve a
most intriguing effect.
Advance style collections stress
important-looking restaurant suits
and regal dinner gowns that tell the
news of luxury-striped materials
such as handsome rayon satin done
in striking color contrast, used for
bodice tops and the very new
peplum blouses, worn either with
street-length skirts or long slim formal types. The new deluxe stripes
that occur in satins and crepes boldly contrast black with white or
black with shocking pink or with
aqua, blue or lime and many
equally lovely color duets. There are
also some exquisite stripes done in
white and pastel colorings. The
vogue for stripes has inspired the
striking evening gown shown in the
oval inset. Here you see a bodice
top of aqua and black regency
striped rayon s«tin with skirt

fitted midrib section accented with

BETTER
Bewitching and beautiful is this
prettily feminine party frock. It has
that quaint loveliness about it which
finest sheer batiste lavished with
ribbons and lace always gives. This
idea of sheerest lingerie cotton as
fine as looms can possibly produce,
for blouse or bodice top* to long
sheer black evening skirts, is responsible for some of the most
delectable party dresses brought out
this year. Here the eyelet embroidered blouse reveals a perfect portrait shoulder line. The full black
souffle skirt swishes fascinatingly
when dancing.
City-State
In the 12th, 13th and 14th centuries, the city-state of Florence, Italy,
was possibly the wealthiest community in Europe. More than 30,000
workers were employed in the
woolen industries alone, and Florentine traders were active throughout the worldV
So widespread was the reputation
of the city for wealth that, when a
Florentine was taken prisoner, the
ransom demanded was always much
more than for citizens of other communities. The florin, coin of Florence, was the standard money of
Europe.
SI
Its wealth long made the city a
military objective. Greedy European
prirces stormed its walls; Pisa and
other near-by city-states harassed
its inhabitants.

Peplum Dickey Transforms
A Simple Frock in a Jiffy
If you ask at the neckwear counter to see a new-style peplum
dickey, you will be shown lovely
lacy types designed to wear aver
one's dress, belted k at the waistline just above a pert peplum flare
of lace and net or any white sheer
that is prettily lace-trimmed. The
career girl will love this peplum
novelty for after office hours, when
she can fasten the dickey in plaee
in a jiffy. These dickeys' have a
way of transforming the simplest
frock into a dressy afternoon gown.

'Weskit Dress' Makes
Its Debut This Fall
A new type of dress is making its
debut this fall, known in fashion parlance as the "weskit" dress. Which
is to say that a weskit effect takes
the place of the usual blouse. These
trig little outfits top a narrow skirt
with a neat fitting vest-like blouse
that buttons up the front with pointed effect at the front hemline. This
type is especially smart in fancy
check or stripe wool and is especially goodlooking made up with contrast sleeves. There is opportunity
given in this weskit-and-skirt fashion for endless color contrasts. The
weskit top may b^ of check, the skirt
of monotone matched to the sleeves.
The weskit, if sleeveless, buttons
over a dainty lingerie blouse to advantage, the sheer crisp sleeves giving refreshing accent to the suit.
There is no doubt but what the
weskit dress will provo one of the
big fashion successes of the fall season and for that matter it is ideal
for present wear.

now become the third ntnk&g port
for the handling of fresh fish in the
United States. First and second
places are held by Gloucester and
Boston.
One of the few fishing ports in the
United States to show an increase
in landings since the war began.
New Bedford received a total of
62,000,000 pounds of fish and shellfish in 1943, compared with 58,000,000
in 1942. Although complete figures
for earlier years are not available,
the present volume is believed to be
about double that of 1940.
The modern fishery boom in New
Bedford is built on the flounder fishery, whereas her earlier maritime
fame rested on whaling, at its peak
in the 1850's. About half of all the
fish now landed at this southern
Massachusetts port are flounderschiefly the species known as the

records, New Bedford is now the
center of the U. S. iounder fishery,

about a quarter of the total U. S.
catch. Present landings run from 23
to 35 million pounds a year, compared with 10 to 15 million pounds
about 1940.

Eire occupies about five-sixths of
Ireland, nearest of the British Isles
to the United States, says the National Geographic society. Remainder of the island is included in
Northern Ireland, politically a m e m ber of the United Kingdom. Population of Firr* in''1941 was about
3,000,000, of Northern Ireland about
1.280,000. E i r e ' s
administrative
authority covers twenty-six counties and four boroughs. Northern
Ireland comprises six counties.
Eire is such a large slice of Ireland that L.e natural features of Ireland are fairly representative. In
size the irltirsd about matches Maine.

Interior Ireland is a plain about

hills rise in short ranges along the
F e w peaks top 3.0Q0 feet.
Agricultural Country
Nature made Ireland an agricultural country, and ti.e Irish' have
clung to their birthright. A handic a p has been the subdivision of
a m i 11 holdings down to tracts providing bare subsistence with resultant overworking of the land. Crop
rotation ar>d fertilizers have helped
in restnrntinn of fertility. Increase of
meadow arsd clover acreage, reduction of cereals and field crops
marked the change of policy.

Complete cleanliness may not
modernize a dated piece of furniture, but it can make it usable,
und^even attractive. Scrubbing wood
furniture with soap and water, drying it thoroughly with clean cloths,
and then waxing or polishing ••will
make all but the most battered
items worthy of a plate in the home.
Surfaces of tables and dressers that
are badly scratched can be concealed with washable cotton or lace
runners. Chair-sects and backs can
be hidden by ready-made or homemade cloth covers. If these disguisers are kept fresh and clean, the
house will have an air of homey
good looks.
When washing discarded wood
furniture, dust it thoroughly first.
Then fill a small pail or pan with
sudsy warm water, using just
enough soap to create a lather. If
the piece is very dirty, apply the
suds with a brush. If only moderately soiled, wash with a cloth. To
prevent streaking, wash and rinse
a small area at a time, then continue to the next section, overlapping a little on the area that already
has been cleaned. This prevents
skipping any parts.. Wash the insides of cupboards and drawers a s
well as the outsides,'
When the whole piece has been
washed and rinsed and wiped with a
dry cloth, let it stand for several
hours to air-dry completely. Then
wax lightly to give a pleasing gloss.

The average price of sponges sold
on the Tarpon Springs, Florida, Exchange in 1943 w a s SI3.24 a pound,
believed to be the highest price for
which sponges have ever sold, according to the Fish and Wildlife
Service of the. Department of the
Interior..'
Total value of sponges sold at the
exchange was $2305,078, a record
figure, although the number of
sponges sold reached a new iow.
Sponges are sold by the bunch,
the bunches varying from a pound
and a half to about ten pounds.
Last year 41,773 such bunches were
sold; the total weight being about
175.000 pounds.
In 1940 the average price p*r
pound of the sponges sold on the
Tarpon Springs Exchange was $3.65.
That year 56,401 bunches weighing
a total of about 232,000 pounds were
sold.

MusUrat Raising
Many persons unfamiliar with the
industry of raising muskrats have
been deceived by statements that
these valuable fur animals ^un be
produced profitably in small pens.
Although it is not impossible to
raise muskrats in pens, fur experts
emphasize that it is not a profitable
undertaking as a fur-production

Fish Hatcheries
The total output of fishes and fish
eggs from the 99 Federal fish
hatcheries that were on a productive basis during {lie calendar year
1943 was 6,694,562,54^ according to
a preliminary report just released
by the Fish and Wildlife Service,
United States Department of the Interior.
The production of the 43 specie*
handled varied, as ir, previous
years, according to local conditions
at the individual hatcheries as well
a s the requirements for certain
forms.
The 1943 total represents a drop
of 14.4 per cent from the 1942 output ^due, chiefly, to the decline in
the number of pollock eggs and
flounder fry handled. There were increases, however, in the output of
lake trout, st«elhead trout; Atlantic
Salmon, and landlocked salmon.

Solids Elastic
It is becoming increasingly ob/ious that solids and liquids have
much more in common than has
been
supposed.
In
elementary
mechanics one thinks of solids as
rigid, retaining their shape perfectly, and of liquids as incompressible, retaining their bulk perfectly,
no matter what forces act upun
them.
Actually it is known that such
substances do not exist. Even the
best behaved solids, if acted upon
in (.me direction by preat forces;,
exhibit an elastic limit. Beyond it,
they retain a deformation or "set,"
kvhose extent and permanence depend upon the duration of the excessive stress.
The solid has begun to show the
plasticity of a viscous liquid. In this
sc:.se ductility and malleability <re
both qualities of quasi-liquid. Th( re
is a larce, vaguely classified group
of materials, called
amorphous
sulids, which cannot be regarded as
either liquids or crystalline solids.
Pitch, tar, wax, lard and gutta
percha are in this category.

Where oats are used a s a companion crop for a seeding of grasses
and legumes, C. S. Garrison, assistant extension agronomist at Rutgers
university, suggests sowing them at
the rate of one t o one and a quarter
bushels per acre. This is quite a reduction from the normal seeding of
two and a half bushels per acre,
but he assures growers that it will
increase the chances of obtaining a
good stand of legumes and grasses.
"By reducing the seeding rate of
the oats, there is less competition
between the oat plants and the new
seedlings for moisture and plant
food," Garrison points out. "And
since the oats are not so thick, they
do not shade the seedlings too much.
"Where possible, it is a good practice to remove the oat crop early
by pasturing or cutting for hay ur
siiage rather than letting it mature
for grain. Removing the oat crop
early will prevent lodging and a
subsequent loss of the hay or pasture mixture."

HERE'S WHY IT PAYS
TO BUY IHC PARTS
That means they are
exactly like the p a i s that were in your
machine when it was new. You bought
a Farmall, or any other McCormickDeering product, because you figured it
was the best. It wasn't delivered to you
with any substitute, "just-as-good/*
make-shift parts in it. And it's poor business to put that kind of parts in your
equipment now or any other time.

Insist on genuine IHC parts. You'll
get your money's worth and keep your
equipment in first-class shape—just like
new.
With a war on and more food to raise,
you need all the mechanical help you
can get. Our shop, our mechanics and our
big parts department are ready to do
everything we can. McCormick-Deering
is our line and Service our middle name.
