a considerable quantity of meat is
smoked and the bouse Is to he perma

outdwelllng can be used If care Is tak

est method Is to construct a fire pit
outside of tho house and pipe the
smoke into the house. The pipe run

bo burled to prevent crushing.
A smokehouse 6 by 8 feet, 10 feet
high, will give nest resuus

Small openings under the eaves or a

The problem of planning your win
ter wardrobe this autumn Is not only
one of style and becomlngncss. It is
actually one of planning to keep
warm, for undoubtedly with a mini
mum of artificial heat In our houses
and a minimum of woolen clothes on
the market, good warm clothes will be
In great demand and will be according
ly high In price, comments a fashion
correspondent.
Now, if you are wondering about
your next winter's wrap you cannot
do better than to decide on a cape or a
cape coat There was danger last win
ter when they were first launched and
taken up enthusiastically among well
dressed women in the larger cities that
they would be run to the ground be
fore this autumn came around. But
they weren't. The public (lid not grasp
the Idea with such mad enthusiasm
that they were ready to cast it aside
in a few months. In fact, the price of
capes was too considerable to permit
this to happen, and the price nas re
mained fairly high because a cape re
quires quite a little material and It Is
the sort of garment In wmcn reauy
inferior fabric cannot be camouflaged
bv the cut and design Into looking
smart The success or a cape ciepenas
on actual quality, not on skillful ma
nipulation or designing of tho ma
terial.
And now manufacturers of women s
clothes and dressmakers say that capes
are to be in the best favor this win
ter. So far as style Is concerned you
wfll not go wrong in making this se
lection. Another advantage about a
cape is this, that while this year It
will look quite all right for street
wear nnd going about the stores and
shops In the daytime, it will also do
scrvlee for afternoon and evening
wear. It will serve to add warmth to
tie simplest street frock and likewise
to protect the most elaborate 01 your
dress-up frocks.
Moreover, a cape can he worn over
an autumn or spring stilt to very nlco
advantage, although a coat might not
slip over the sleeves of a suit Hence,
you can make a left-over light
weight suit eufflco all winter ir yott
choose.
And there Is another advantage. Dif
ficult as it Is to make cheap capes
look well, you actually can make a
cape at home without having it look
Lome-madey, which is more than one
can say of most homemade coats. You
see, everything Is In the material, and
you would be far wiser to put, say,
f 15 or $18 in material of fine quality
from which to make a cape than to try
a ready-made wrap that you could buy
for that price. . -

There is a great tendency to
- l . rt linni, tin thft
use tne same tsiriug i i-
meat after It is sacked. It Is impos
sible to tlo the top of the sack and
make it Insect proof if a string sticks
out of the top. In tying the top of the
sack make a double wrap before tying
a knot and this will prevent the en
trance of any insects. Each sack

and then each piece can be hung up
for future use. Never stacs yi

frequently when using, and apply with
a brush.
DON'T LET MILK SPOIL
(Prepared by the United States De- '
'Lrtmpnt of Agriculture.)
In this time of need for food
every effort should be made to
prevent milk from spoiling.
Cows should be kept clean and
should be milked in clean sur
roundings Into a small-top . or
covered pall. All utensils which
(,it enntnet with the milk:
should be thoroughly sterilized
with steam for at' least five,
minutes, and milk should be
cooled promptly to 50 degrees 1 ,
or less and maintained at that
temperature. Whenever .these
conditions are met, little milk
.iir h wasted. In this time of
terrible destruction of human
life it Is particularly necessary
that milk be produced under
such conditions ns to insure a
safe food for babies. This must
be done by a decreasing num
ber of men trained to do it. . A

MAKING OVER THE DRESSES
Great Saving In Material by Remodel
ing Gowns for the Children
Jo Clean Velvet
With material for dresses at a pre
mium, the thrifty housewife will look
tnv enmpthinz to "make over,
not only for herself, but forthe chil
dren of thejjousehold. "
Sometimes there Is a velvet dress
left from last year or the year be
fore. Velvet if at all of a good qual
ity wars very well. A little benzine
to remove spots and a good steaming
makes it look like new, states a cor
respondent .
The steaming process is very slm
plo and quite effective, neat an ordl
r,nrv iron and place it in a tin or gran
ite pan. Wet a towel arid place over
the hot iron. The steam will Immedl.
ately begin to pour out. Ilold the
velvet close to the top of the pan, be
ing careful not to aiiow me,"' "'
to touch the wet cloth, as contact with
this will make a spot that will be bard
to get out.
Use a soft -brush on the velvet all

1 wrinkles will be gone, and after hang-
Perhaps it Is through the Influence
of the Scottish kilties which have ap
peared at various times in our Ameri
can cities to remind us that the kins
men of Bruce and Wallace are among
our allteo, that, we have revived our
interest in plaids. Perhaps it is just
because bright colors are in vogue as
a counteractive against the grimness
of war, or perhaps it is just time that
plaids returned to vogue they do pe
riodically, do they not? At any rate,
some of the most interesting of the
new separate skirts are made from
Scottish plaid, and some of theso
skirts are made in plaited designs to
carry out the idea of the hlghlander.
ing the velvet In the sun or a warm
place to dry, it will look fresh and
new. .
For the schoolgirl a velvet dress is
appropriate for "dress up" occasions.
Of course the material musi uc iu..
along much the same lines as the old
dress. If the skirt was cut straight,
just gored a bit at the top, it can be
used much the same way for the made
over dress Taking some off the top
of the skirt makes a "new. waistline
with more fullness. If the bottom of
the hem is at all worn and there Is
not enough length for a whole new
hem, use two rows of narrow silk braid
to hide the worn places.
The waist may be made of black
satin, with a bolero of the velvet. The
bolero can be cut out of the old waist.
leim-Qh th Pdsre of the bolero with nar
row silk braid like that used on tne
skirt, and with a dainty frill at
the neck and wrist a cnanmos
is the result. This dress may be worn
at the afternoon parties or 10
dancing class, with the assurance that
although- "made-over" it is quite tue
thing to wear.
A dainty handkerchief has one cor
ner cut off and remade by a triangle
of white net on which is one's monogram.
