It Is probable that the production of oats In the Cnited States has reached Its highest point and the acreage of this crop may be somewhat reduced during the present decade. Thus, the discussion of the situation and outlook of the oat crop in the United States is summed up In the 1922 Yearbook Just published by the United Stales Department of Agriculture. The rapidly increasing use of motorteed transfer and trucking in both the city and country are markedly reducing the commercial demand for feeding oats, and the quantity of oats required for horse feed on the farm may be slightly reduced by the use of farm tractors. Notwithstanding the rapid, development of the farm tractor, most of the farms of the United States will continue to be tilled wholly or In large part by the use of horses and oats will continue to be in demand as one of the principal horse feeds. Certain industries will continue to use horses rather than trucks, and these will supply some market demand. Used for Human Food. In addition, considerable quantities of oats are used each year for human food, in the making of prepared live stock and poultry feeds and for export. Oats usually are not considered a cash crop, but are Important because of the rather unique place they occupy in the scheme of farming in some parts of the United States. While they are valuable as a feed for horses, young stock and breeding animals, they are grown largely to complete the rotation system in which corn, wheat and hay crops are grown. There Is no other crop that fits in as well as do oats between corn and wheat or corn and grass, utilizing land and labor that might otherwise be unproductive. In some sections barley and soy beans may be substituted with good results, but under most conditions these crops tiave certain disadvantages that still make oats t^awst satisfactory Intermediate croi£ Crop l« Important. ' Economy of labor in the production of oats also Is important. Usually no plowing is necessary in preparing the seed bed, particularly where the crop follows corn. While oats rank fifth among all crops In total cash value, and further Increase In acreage is problematical, the crop Is nevertheless important because of its place in the general farming system. While oats are grown to a great extent In western Europe, Russia and other countries, the United States leads in total production with slightly more than one-fourth of the world crop. Russia, according to the average production for the five-year period ending in 1914, was a very close second, with 24 per cent of the total. Other countries of large production were Germany, Canada, France, Austria- Hungary and the United Kingdom, In the order named. During the twenty-year prewar period from 1895 to 1914, Inclusive, the annual production of oats In the United States averaged, In round numbers, 969.000,000 bushels, in Russia 901,000,000. in Germany 523,000.000, in France 317,000,000, in Austria-Hungary 221,000,000, and In the United Kingdom 176,000,000 bushels. Oats enter much less Into commerce than wheat, because they are too bulky In relation to the price to bear the cost of long-distance transportation. Therefore the greater portion of the crop always Is consumed In the country in which It Is produced. The oat crop Is not as Important commercially as wheat and corn. According to the census data, slightly less than a third of the national production of oats in 1919 was sold off the farm by farmers. Farm consumption apparently absorbed the remainder of the crop. Of the part sold by farmers a larger proportion goes • to terminal markets than In the case of corn, much of which is sold by one farmer to another for feeding and thus never reaches the terminal*. . - Japanese Beetles-Are Cause of Much Injury (Pw|»fH by tba Unltod State* Department of Agriculture-) The fact that Japanese beetles attack over 200 species of plants. Including between 20 and 25 species which they Injure severely, makes the control of this insect unusually difficult, because as soon as one infested species is sprayed with arsenicals and rendered distasteful to the beetles they concentrate on other plants, which frequently cannot be protected with sprays. A series of studies made for the purpose of determining what the feeding habits of the Japanese beetle are, has been embodied In a professional paper Issued as United States Department of Agriculture Bulletin 1154, "Feeding Habits of the Japanese Beetle Which Influence Its Control," by Loren B. Smith, entomologist. It has been found that most of the cultivated fruit trees, corn, beans and various shade and ornamental treeS are attacked. Sometimes a heavy infestation will occur at first on pench, smartweed, sassafras and apple, after which the beetles leave for other food plants and do not return during the season. Ripening fruit of any kind, silk and ears of corn, and peaches affected with brown rot are particularly attactlve to the beetles. During the early part of the season they are more abundant on weeds, cherries and grape; by midsummer fruit and shade trees are more heavily infested, while durlnp: August and September heavy Infestations are mostly confined to corn, beans, clover and various plants In bloom at that time. Most of the feeding occurs on the upper and other foliage of the various food plants, The bulletin, which also gives other data bearing on the control of this pest, Is available to those Interested, upon application to the United States Department of Agriculture at Washington, D. C. Disinfect Hog Quarters After Cholera Epidemic Where cholera has occurred in th« herd all quarters which the hogs have occupied should be disinfected thoroughly. Liberal use of lime in the small lots will' help the natural disinfectant agencies. All Titter, rubbish and refuse should be burned. Buildings should be sprayed with some of the stock dips on the market according to the directions. Mud wallows should be drained and filled with fresh earth. The soli under buildings should be sprinkled with quicklime or sprayed with disinfectant. Hogs which do not fully recover should be destroyed. MUCH BUTTER IS MADE ON FARMS Recent Bulletin Issued in Aid of Its Production. (Pr«fc«r*d by the United Stntee Department of Agriculture.) When the present generation of mlddle- aged men were boys, butter was a farm product almost altogether, and was shipped to the large markets like other farm products. With the growth of the creamery system, however, fanners have come to dispose of their cream througji this channel, and farm butter has fallen off very largely. In 1899 over a billion poltnds of butter were made on the farm: twenty years later, only 700,000,000 pounds; and the farm butter of today is consumed at home or In nearby towns. Nevertheless, a considerable part of the butter of the country is still made on farms, and to aid In the production of a good product, the dairy division of the United States Department of Agriculture has Issued Farmers' Bulletin 876, Making Butter on the Farm. This bulletin first appeared several years ago; It was later revised; and the demand for It was such that It became exhausted. A reprint has Just come out, copies of which may be obtained by application to the department at Washington, D. C. The bulletin discusses the quality and preparation of the cream, the process of churning, and how to overcome the difficulties which arise In that process. Packages for market, and how to pack the butter for storing are also taken up. The necessary equipment la listed, and a plan is given for • conveniently arranged dairy house, which Is a highly desirable thing In carrying on the manufacture aflann batter.- Comfortable Pigs Will Pay Biggest Dividends TSie happy, contented pig grows and fattens the most rapidly, according to John M. Evvard of the Iowa experiaaent station; It Is the comfortable pig that is the happiest and most contented. Now It Isn't necessary to keep the pig In the parlor, but It la necessary that he has a comfortable bed and a comfortable place for hla bed. Tonr aim Is to make the pig big. The fowlus tt# boar, U* breed sew. all need considerable exercise even though they need a good place to rest when the need and desire comes upon them. But the fattening hog gets fat more rapidly when he doesn't run around or stand disconsolately wearing the fat off. Comfortable quarters Snd a comfortable bed make pig heaven, where porkers wax fat and return dividends to their owners. Lovely Negligees Appeal to Women Most Important Points of Dress Come to Light at That T^me^ negligees! ds Deshabilles, peignoirs, What soothing, luscious wrirds they are --and how translatable! Don't they conjure up pictures of heaped cushions, graceful reclining chairs and pier mirrors to reflect the lovely unconventional beauty that only this type of garment may so delightfully express? For In no other part of her wardrobe may the woman of Interesting Individuality give free rein to her imagination and Indulge her craving for weird color, eccentric line and luxurious fabrics. There are literally no restrictions, asserts a fashion writer in the New York Times. The woman who finds It difficult to express her personality In her formal clothes will revel In the planning or selecting of her negligees. There are such charmintr creations for every type. The ttte girl will find the Lovely Robe d'lntlmate Is Mads From 8erlee of Loosely Draped Lines Which Are Fastened to Yoke of Lace That Ends in Floating Panel. dainty, befrllled pastel sort of thing that accentuates her extreme femininity as no other garment possibly could; the majestic Junoesque type of Woman will select costumes for her hours of leisure created on long clinging lines, in strange exotic colors, with a great deal of lovely drapery and magnificent trimmings, and for all the numerous types between these two extremes are negligee designs that will just as accurately interpret the personalities of their fair wearers. The popular idea, often expressed, that negligees are only for the woman of leisure who spends hours in her boudoir each day Is distinctly erroneous. To have at least one decorative bpt not necessarily etpenslve lounging robe to don, after the prosaic work-aday clothes are discarded, is a most refreshing tonic to a busy woman. The executive who rushes from one conference to another all day in her smart but nevertheless uninspiring dark frock, will be immeasurably rested by even a short half hour In a lovely pale thing of filmy chiffon that will absolutely dispel all thoughts of the business of the day. A simple model In crepe de chine, chosen In her favorite j tint, should be just as much a part of the stenographer's wardrobe as her tailored blouses. And the busy housekeeper will find herself w&fted away from tiresome domestic problems by slipping Into a soft clinging satin thing of dreams. Creations for Summer, Feeling so strongly woman's need of intriguing robes for her leisure, the designers have innumerable exquisite creations for the summer. The obvious essential of foremost Importance Is, of course, the quality of coolness. And this element has been attained by various means. Chiffons and crepes are used In place of the velvets and brocades of winter. Trimmings Include sheer laces, valenclennes and soft shadow laces, and lovely bands of filet. Ribbons and ruffles take the place of fur and metallic ornaments. Coo| greens and blueS and orchids replace the warmer orange tones and rich flame colors. A thing to Invite one's soul Is a design of apricot crepe and ivory lace. Its success lies in the fact that, while really very simple in cut. It Is draped so as to appear delightfully eccentric. The long Interrupted line of heavy lace across the shoulders and down to a point below the knee is perfect In its simplicity; while the amusing Idea of leaving one arm bare and massing the drapery over the other Is unusual. Another charming model, less ex* treme, with an Interesting medieval note Is of rose chawneuse, with silver lace sleeves trailing from shoulder to hem. The sleeves are caught up at a point above the elbow with amulets of old silver and blue enamel to give the familiar Moyen age silhouette. These models are excellent examples of the more formal types of negligees, but there are numerous possibilities for the woman who lives to be original In devising lounging robes along less i usual lines. In this category are found ! fascinating combinations of loose satin ' trousers and chiffon blouses, which j really aren't blouses but squares of material thrown over the head, falling | into becoming fol^s to the hlfts. The. I obvious advantage of this type of gar- ! ment 1% the added variety It affords \jhe woman of limited means. For example, a cerise georgette overblouse, picoted In sfiver, might be worn as successfully with black charmeuse trousers as with a simple white slip. Interesting cords and narrow girdles of semi-precious stones and bead ornaments are just the decorative note needed to create harmony. Contrasted to this more or less bohemian type of thing, one finds demure little breakfast coats in pastel colorings wtth hardly any trimmings, bat quaint ruffles of the same material. These models are cut often only threequarter length, and are worn over milady's robe de nnlt or a silk costume slip. Make Negligees at Heme. With all the beautlfnl silks and fons that are crowding the market these days, there comes an excellent opportunity for the making of negligees at home. They have so little shape about them. They are merely matters of lengths of material gathered into becoming folds and the amount of sewing which Is necessary is, on the plainer ones at least, almost to be discounted. They are collections of color and, fine stuffs with plentiful distributions of silver and gold applied and used as foundations. Then there are widths and widths of lace, either colored or white or of metal.

These were the last defiant words of "Jack Smith," bandit, safe-blower, gunman and avowed police enemy, before he lapsed Into unconsciousness. The man was mortally wounded in a gun fight with policemen and, through his conscious hours, he refused to tell nurses, police and detectives his identity. His name and history still a mystery, he died the next day. His final refusal to reveal his identity was m reply to a plea of Miss Elizabeth Robinson, nurse In charge of the Information desk at Receiving hospital. It Is Miss Robin- /son's duty to Inform retatlvqg . «< deaths in the hospital. Refuses to Tell. v "Have you no folks, no friends who will want to knew of anything that might happen to you?"

Kimonos Are Now Popular Bordeaux Mixture for 1 Spraying Potato Crop Much of the value of bordeaux mixture in spraying potatoes depends upon how the materials In the mixture are compounded. The standard formula consists of five poundj of blue vitriol, or copper sulphate, and five pounds of freshly burned lime in 50 gallons of water. The copper sulphate Is dissolved by placing It Into a bag and suspending In water. The lime Is treated separately. A little hot water Is poured on the lime until It becomes active. Then cold water Is added slowly as the lime slakes until a fairly thin white liquid results. In mixing, either the copper srilphate or the lime, should be ffi&ly diluted. It is better, especially where mixing small amounts, to pour the copper sulphate solution into the milk of Bme. A heavy sediment Is apt to result If the» opposite process Is followed. Many potato growers have mixed It the wrong way and the results have been of comparatively little value. Several Essentials for Development of Chicks Best development of yotfng chicks coikies from close attention to the brood coops, cleanliness, proper feed and water, shade and free range. Keep a good mash before them. Watch for lice and mites, they multiply rapidly during warm weather. Clean and spray bouses and coops. ,' Materials for Building, r There is but very rittle difference in the cost of materials for building a frame or hollow tile building, but there is a great difference In {he cost of re pair and maintenance on the two typet .of buildings. A' plain, straight kimono Is often most satisfactory because It Is there and ready to be thrown over the shoulders at almost any minute, to keep out a passing breeze or to cover one's nightie in an emergency. Tou can make awfully good-looking kimonos from the printed silks that are now so popular, and for this sort of robe you can go the limit with colors and designs, where you might be a little timid about being so bold with a dress you expected to wear out In polite society. If you want i may be subjected to all sorts hard wear. All of these materials make lovely little bed jackets that can be slipped over the shoulders when you are having your breakfast In bed, or when a sick day or two overtakes you. It Is so much easier to pull yourself together and to get well if you are pleased with the way you look when you are attending to the business of getting back yow~ strength. Then there are the little things thfit the kimono to be as elegant as possl-I go along with boudoir apparel. They ble, then line It with a plain-toned chiffon. In this way you manage to Increase the effect of your color scheme and to create something which Is really quite beautifuL The printed challies are good, too, for this particular purpose. They have Just a shade more warmth than the silks and they do come In such charming patterns that they positively Inspire you to take your needle In hand and see what you can do In the way of a kimono. They can be washed agraln and again, which Is no mean attribute for a house wrap of this sort, which are always fascinating to the feminine soul. Without them--the slippers, caps, etc.--the house gown, no fatter how simple It Is, loses much of lits effect. There are dainty little mules covered with gay brocades and lightly woven tapestries. There are others of plain satins and kid which are most amusing. Of course, they are hard to walk In. but they are good-looking. No one can deny that fact." For those who wish more comfort there are flatter sorts of slippers and ones which more nearly approach a guarantee to stsjr on the foot. Colored Slips for Your Filmy Frocks Some ef the filmy lace and batiste frocks are sometimes posed over colored taffeta slips and you have something approaching the old type of lingerie frock that was -such a staple In every woman's wardrobe fifteen or sixteen years ago. These undersllps, one must have observed, are cut scant even for the bouffant frocks, for the young woman of 1923, though she may consent to wear a bouffant frock, refuses to be or to look bouffant herself* Therefore she Insists on a narrow slip to show the slender lines that are really hers beneath the outstanding folds of the frock, and this prodyces an effect of I flower-like slenderness that one has to see to appreciate. Under some of the organdie frocks In white or pastel shades are placed slips of gold or silver cloth, and now and then there Is a •Hp of finely-plaited colored chiffon that Hlngw to the hips and kn^es^ beneath the outstanding Unas «C ;«ke frock. ' , I . • " • Half capes are i»a\Vfa« s hion novelty this season Is, that is, capes which go across the back of the frock but not the front. They are usually attached to the sleeves. Modish Use of Ribbon. The silk summer wrap will be with as again this summer In all Its pristine glory and displaying a little extra glory with its modish use of ribbon collar and diffs instead of the fur of last summer. Firm, heavy ribbon, such as grosgrain or moire, is gathered and sewed onto collar and cuffs, up and down in horizontal rows, literally covering the foundation, and standing far out from the wrap in conspicuous and striking effects. ^ , Surplice Effect. The surplice effect is featured in coat dresses and those of rep and twill. It Is an excellent line fpr the woman who could eliminate a fnr pounds u advantage. .

But when Stevens took his finger, prints as a possible jneans of identification, he refused to help the officials. « When Patrolman John Sweet of the Sunt station, guarding prisoners In Receiving hospital, asked the man what his thoughts were when he commenced to flre, he repeated his hatred of policemen. "When I saw those bulls pull their guns my only thought was to get them," he said. "I have no removrse for the jobs I have pulled off. Only I wanted to 'get* one of the bulls."
