Glow for tho lengthening of

The length from the heel to
the widest part of the shoe
should correspond to the

that you are not fitted too

of about one inch between
the end of the longest toe and

that are too short will cramp

Does the shoe cut into your

How does the shoe feel as

arch, over the instep and ball

you wear properly fitted shoes
you not only will feel better
but your posture will be more
graceful.

How To Buy Shoes
(Continued from last week)
2. How to buy shoes to ease
foot ills.
Weak or flat feet. Choose a
sturdy, well-built shoe to sup-
port you. A built-in arch holds
the foot firmly and gives aid
to muscles and ligaments.
Coms, callouses, blisters.
Shoes should be made of soft,
pliable leather, shaped and
cut so there will be no pres-
sure or seams on tender areas.
Ingrown toe nails. A broad
toe style provides room. Good
depth In the vamp will give
added comfort.
Swollen feet. Shoes and
hose should not be tight.
Shoes of porous leather, per
forated styles or open toes

Mr. Moore says harvest of
his irrigated cotton will begin
in about two weeks. He plans
to begin harvest of his dry-
land cotton immediately.
Since the irrigation plan for
the farm was conceived in
1956, Mr. Moore's tract has
become a showpiece in this
area for hundreds of inter-
ested farmers and foreign ex-

3. Buying shoes that fit.
Do not buy shoes by pre-
vious size, but have your feet
measured each time you buy
shoes. Sizes vary with differ-
ent makes. Your feet often
change so that larger size is
needed.
4. Points to look for in a
good shoe.
(1) The sole should be
heavy enough to protect your
foot from hard surfaces;
however, the shoe should be
pliable and not too heavy.
(2) Correct proportion in
length from the heel to the
ball of the foot and from the
ball to the toe in relation to
the overall length is very im
portant. (3) The heel should

Just lucky enough to have

Mr. Moore is justly proud
of his system and the results
it is producing. A drive

other materials which Mr.
Moore will soon use to deliver
water to what is now dryland

to be well worth the effort
