FOR WOMEN ONLY. *fteceipe" for Securing Home Conveniences on the Farm. rhere are four methods by which any woman can acquire home con- ' leniences. I know this is true, because I have three married sisters and * mother, al! living on farms. Each of them used a different plan, and all were reasonably successful, which goes to show that there are severa' ^ ways:-oct skinning catts. If you do not 1 Believe, Mrs. Farmer, that these plans 1 will know, we dai c you to try one or 1 ?1I of thpm and write us the results.! ^ t.?Grab your husband by the collar "button, pick up a rolling pin and ' bounce it off his dome.

During the month of June, the Ford Motor Company, through its Detriot Factories and 22 Assembly plants :hroughout the count ry reached the production of 108,962 Ford cars and .rucks, setting up a new high record for one month. Production of ' 'ord cars and trucks las been steadily increasing since ?arly spring, and shows subtsantial sains over the same period last year. Ihe second quarter of 1921, viz., Apil. May and June shows an output >f 301.796 Ford cars and trucks .gainst 220,878 for the same three nonths of last year, or a net increase :f 80,918. Despite the fact, however, that the Pord Plants have been running at naximum capacity the demand for Pord cars and trucks is not being met, md at the oresent time, many thousand unfilled orders have been piled jp ahead so that Ford sales are stiil imited by manufacturing facilities ather than marketing possibilities. Particularly is this true in respect to inclosed cars, for which the deamnd ias been unusually heavy. One reason cited by the Ford offi:ials for the unprecedented demand 'or Ford cars is the present tendercy loward economy. Many of those ?.*hose names have been added to the long list of buyers might well have afforded larger and more costly cars chan the Ford, but it is the belief that nost prospective motor car buyers are nvestigatnig all of the costs incident ;o motornig much more carei'uily than it any period during the past five fears. The estimated output of the Ford factories for July calls for 109,000 :ars and trucks, or a production of 1,360 a day during an eight hour work lay only, the houily output will be >45 cars. In other words, a Ford car sr truck leaves the assembly line ev?ry 6^ seconds. PLOWDEN MOTOR COMPANY Greelyville, S. C. W. C. Plowden, New Zion, S. C. L-; o American Legion Notes.

A national census to determine how nany veterans of the world war are Shriners has been started by Ararat Temple of the Mystic Shrine at Kansas City. The purpose of completing the census is to make it possible for the Kansas City Shriners to send special invitations to the veterans to attend the annual national convention 3f the American Legion to be held at Kansas City, October 31, and November 1st and 2nd. The visiting Shrin?rs will be guests of Ararat Temple iuring the convention and will be entertained in the homes of Kansas City Shriners. * , i I ENORMOUS LOSS LAST YEAR BY THE SHIPPING BOARD Chairman Lasker Shocks Harding by | Revealing No Accounting for $307,034,428 Expense Losses of the United States Shipping Board last year exceeded $300,000,000, and Chairman Lasker has nolrn/J on onnnnnninfinn I 1V/I oil of $300,000,000 to carry the board over this year. This, in effect, was the information conveyed to President Harding recently by Chairman Lasker. At the same time the President was | told the system of accounting in use since the board was organized was "vicious, bureaucratic, incompetent, inefficient and put a premium on dishonesty which has been taken advantage of." Mr. Harding was told that he and the board had inherited a colossal wreck with an accounting system that, if used in any large industry, would put it in the hands of receivers in a year. Chairman Laskrr can equal, if not excel, Gen. Dawes in forceful and vitrolic expression where waste and inefficiency are concerned. He was very eloquent in telling the public what he thought of the shipping board as it has been operated. But Mr. Lasker made it plain that he blames no one for these conditions; he lays them to "exigencies of the times." He especially insisted that the former Chairman, Admiral Bencon, and the General Comptroller, Alonza Tweedale, are not responsible. Mr. Lasker's announcement is the first given to the public that truly represents the receipts and expenditures of the bank for any fiscal year since its inception. The cold figures, as given out after weeks of labor by ar. auditing force which includes many private auditors called in by the chairman to aid the government force are as follows: For 1920-1921?Gross expenditures, $680,000,000; gross receipts, $380,000, 000. To show the utter chaos of the existing accounting system of the board, Mr. Lasker explained that of the gross exj^nditures $409,416,734.22 was disbursed for operating expenses and that $307,035,428.24 of this was not accounted for and there is nothing on the books to show for it, as it went to operators who so far have failed to make an accounting. "It is fair to say," Mr. Lasker addea, "that operators always are a few months behind in accounting for voyages, but obviously for 75 per cent, to be unaccounted for shows a com plete break down and that the new beard has inherited a system that has collapsed." o 666 cures Chills and Fever.
