Fall colics*' and career cottons

Miss Maty Kin Lee. clothing
specialist for the Agricultural K\

says that National Cotton Coun
cil reports show that clothes have
moved closet to the body without
defining it. Short skirts hare the
knee ami are rarely slim. They
favor A lines, pleats and gores,
and are cut with plenty of hip ac
tion.
The fresh, young charm of
richly textured cotton interprets
the new fashions. There's cordu
roy in all its many fashions, vel
veteen. and soft suede. Quilting
puffs the surfaop of many cottons,
allowing new worlds of contrast.
Hut the biggest news on the
fall fashion horizon is a brand
new cotton that looks and feels
like real leather. The new leather
like cotton is supple and soft. It's
also washable, porous, water-re
pellent. and unafraid of an iron.
Coat and suit designers love lea

ing it for youthful fashions that '
have great flair.
Back-to college and on-the-job
cottons are enjoying a vintage
season. It started with a few
drops of grape in the spring and'
summer collections. Now autumn
clothes are soaked in “carnation,"
“wine”, and “blueberry."
The vintage shades flow from
tailored corduroy outfits for class
room or office wear to velvett*en
evening extravaganzas for prom
and theatre dates.
Outstanding among the new all
purpose cotton coats are those
that can brave the weatiior and
are dressy enough for dates.
Date fashions are newsy in
their use of informal cottons cut
on formal lines, and lush cottons
styled on simple, uncluttered
lines. This fall, velveteen is a
popular dress-up favorite as is
corduroy, which is making a big
hit on the after-dark scene.
For really big evenings, how
ever. today's young moderns like
to took gala, and long dresses
have suddenly become the rule in
stead of the exception.

Farmers Took
Marketing Loss
On Cotton Crop
-North Cai hna farmers took
an estimated $700,000 marketing
loss on Iheii 1963 .-niton crop lx
cause of grass.
This cs'imatc was obtained by
Charles Itiooks, extension e<»tton
marketing at North Catolina
State, ft is based on the number
of bal(*s reduced in grade hocause
of excess grass
Excess grass was found in Id
fa*r cent of cotton classed last
year under the Smith-Doxey pro
gram. This percentage ranged
from 3 per ient in the Piedmont
to v per tent in the Northeast to
2s per i-ent in the Southeast.
In some counties, such as Cum
berland. Harnett. Robeson. Samp
son and Scotland, the amount of
grassy cotton ranged from 20 to
3T> per cent.
Hr >ok» pointed out that cotton
found to have exi-ess grass ia re
duced one grade and occasionally
two grades. A one grade reduc
tion means a one and one-half to
one and three fourths cents per
pound price drop. If the cotton
was put under loan last year, the
Commodity Credit Corporation
cut the price another one cent per
pound.
“For example, suppose a farm
er has a bale of cotton that ordi
narily would grade middling,"
Brooks said. "Excess grass causes
the grade to be lowered to strict
low middling. At last year's
prices, this would mean that the
farmer gets SS.30 per bale less
for his cotton. If he can’t find a
buyer for tin* cotton and has to
put it under loan, his price is cut
another $5.00. The total loss on
the has,, because of grass would,
therefore, lie $13 30."
Grassy cotion fields are. of
course, nothing new in North
Carolina. Hut the rapid progress
in mechanical hai Nesting has
made the problem more costly.
Harvesters are more likely to mix
parts of the grass plant, especial
ly the seed, in with the cotton
than hand pickers.

The best way. of course, is
to eomo to your furniture

most iieople in older homes

plans.
In th».t ease, before going
out to shop, take your yard
stick or tape-measure and
measure the room or rooms
vou are going to furnish. You
should not only measure the
length and width of the room
hut you should take an exact
measurement of the walls
where the furniture is to be
used, plus the measurements
of the doors, windows and
other openings in your room
and the height of the window
sills under which you may
want to place furniture.
This eliminates the guess

will enable your decorator or

Family Foot Specialist Can Play

Drs. Arthur lielfand of Phila

separate papers deliveiod at the

American Podiatry Association in

Dr. Lewis also underscored the

Jtrene. Such care, he said, can
prevent the necessity for ampu

function to the diabetic foot
Both of the foot experts noted
that the podiatrist is often the
first practitioner to see or hear
about tlie diahete* danger signals
which show up in the foot. These
include, dry. brittle nails; sores
on toes and soles of f«>et; pain
tingling or numbness, and night
cramps in the legs.
Dr. ffelfand, Director of the
Podiatry Clinic at St. Iaike s and
Children's Medical Center in
Philadelphia, has been conducting
a pilot program aimed at scieen

and other serious foot ailments
