FACTORIES ARE
 OPERATING ON
 REGULAR BASIS

Hartford, Dec. 10-All factories in the city operated yesterday under reg uIar schedules and, while the ban on electric display lights was observed in some quarters last night, the busi- ness section of the city was practical ly as brilliantly lighted during the evening as ever, and the citys lone cabaret show, as well as billiard rooms and bowling alleys, kept open beyond the II o'clock limit, on the ground that no one had given them any notice to the contrary.
 The decision of leaders in industry to ignore the fuel regulations for the time being was adopted following a day of confusion and uncertainty, as a result of which the majority of Connecticut's industrial plants win continue to operate on regular sched- ules, for the present, at least. There was a willingness to comply with the restrictions. but the heads of industry and trade were unable to find any one in authority to say that they should Up to midnight, an attempt by the Manufacturers association of Hart ford county to learn from Fuel Ad- ministrator Garfield whether factories Were exempt that had been foresight ed enough to lay in coal stocks in ad- NtiEltHs llll&bJ bJ0uu6Ilt Ol the Iuel auIfllIl- istration, had met with no response
 President E. Kent Hubbard of the Manufacturers Association of Con- necticJt lost no time in issuing a statement that ''Dr. CIarfieId's order is, of course, a most severe blow to our industries, not only in Connectt. cut, but throughout the entire na- tion." and there were other indica- tiOns that the regulations threw indus tries in this city into a condition much similar to that following the famous : 'Heatless Monday" edict of January, 1918. Hartford n1anufa cturers, in the absence of official word from the fuel administration, or an interpretation of their status, were left "at sea- atfer reading the dispatches from Wash tngton and, failing to fI.I some au- thoritative interpretation of them, greed upon what appeared to them to be the most logical construction, under which they will continue to op- crate their factories unless orders are received to che contrary.

C. OF C. MAKES STATEMENT ON
 FUEL ORDERS

out today by the Bridgeport Chamber of Commerce:
 The orders issued by the United States Fuel Administration are en- forceable by the Railroad Admins tration, according to press reports.
 pretations of the fuel regula- tions can come from no other source with any degree of finality, and eff forts will be made to secure the full- est information regarding the regu" latIons.
 Until interpretations can be made, 1t would appear that individuals should make their own interpreta' ttons bearing in mind that such in terpretations should be made in the light of effecting the greatest possi~ ble fuel economies.
 The larger merchandising concerns throughout the city are planning g. rigid fuel conservation. and several have already announced that they will close off all rights promptly at $ o'clock.
 The reading of the regulation in seems to be perfectly clear and ab- is as follows:
 ''No ornamental lights, white way or other unnecessary street lights. outline lighting, electric signs or H. lunninated billboards, show windows or show lights are to be operated, This does not effect street lighting necessary for the safety of the pub lie"

SAY HOUSTON BLOCKED 1T
Secretary OF Agriculture May B.
Called On To Tell Why.

Washington. Feb. 4.-Secretary of
Agriculture Houston may be called
upon to answer charges presented to
the congress packer probers that he
aided the packers by blocking investi-
cation of producers.
According to testimony of E. C. Las
alter of the National Livestock associa-
ton, the packers did not desire the
producers investigated simultaneously
with them. This, it was stated. would
have cheated them OF their contention
that the producers, not the packers
were waxing wealthy.
Lasater charged that the depart
ment of agriculture had refused to ap-
point investigators. Houston, Lasater
alleged, opposed a study of livestock
growing, saying 1t only gave agitators
chance to stir up discomfort among
the farmers.
Francis J. Heney and members OF
the senate agricultural committee have
openly accused the department of ag-
riculture of being friendly with the

Fine and Prison Term for All

Idleness will become a lost art in
Kansas if a bill introduced in the up
per house of the legislature today by
Senator Plumb of Emporia is enacted
into law. The pretty boy who hangs
around the drug store commenting on
the bellies of his town as they stroll
down the street and the whittier who
lounges il front of the postoffice or
the general store, will be driven to
work.
The scion of wealth will be forced to

Plumb dropped into the senate hop

sirable citizen who allows his family

the bill is clause that is as far-reach-
ing as any anti-loafing measure ever
enacted in any state. This clause pro-
vides that any able bodied male per-
son between the ages of eighteen and
forty-fiVe who shall not be continu-
ously or regularly employed in some
business, occupation, trade or profess
sion. shall be deemed a vagrant and

bred dollars or Imprisonment in the

No Room for Loafer.
In discussing the bill Senator Plumb
stated that it was drawn for the pur-
pose of compelling every able-bodied
person in Kansas to engage in useful
employment. I'm this day and tage
there is no room for the loafer." he
said. "a man who will not work
should not be allowed to enjoy the
benefits of society and no matter if a
man between IS and As has a million
dollars he will be compelled to en-
gage in a useful occupation if this
measure becomes a law. 1t is intended
to hit at the man who never does any,
thing useful-who is a leeeh upon So
ciety-and 1 believe it will prove a
blessing and a benefit to every part of
the state if it is passed"
The Plumb bill does not change the
law existing at the present time APP

does is to make it compulsory for
every man TO work or do his loafing

every person found in or around a

To be successful in raising chickens
1t is necessary to have healthy and
vigorous breeding stock. for the lack
Of vigor in the newly Matched chicks
is often traceable to weak parents.
Only the most vigorous and the best
grown birds should be put in the
breeding yards. Each bird should be
full Of life and energy and free from
any serious deformity. Yearling hens
are usually better than pullets for
breeders, for the reason that the hens
are more mature and do not lay SO
many eggs during the early winter,
and consequently do not reduce their
vitality SO much before the breeding
season. Vigorous hens 2 to 4 years
old can often be advantageously
retained in the breeding yard. The

In toilet preparations our grand
mothers made many things for them
selves of the harmless and holnely in
gradients they had at hand. Some of
these old recipes have been preserved
and have proven their worth in per-
forming the work they are intended
for. Besides being less expensive than
the lotions and creams bought in the
shops one has the satisfaction of know
Ing just what is in them. For the COM
plexion and for the hair these home
made preparations probably have tonic
and healing qualities as effective as
the manufactured articles. At least
they will answer the, purpose for
women who feel that money spent for
toilet preparations is an extravaganza
for them. Here is the old fashioned
and reliable formula for treatment Of
q dry skin.
When the skin Is dry and harsh 1t
should be washed only once day In
warm water, using a pure. bland soap,
and rinsed in cold water. This is done
in the morning. During the day use q
disappearing cream, rubbing It in and
then wiping 1t of with piece Of old
linen. At night rub In the cream but
do not rub 1t of but allow it to re-
main oil night.
The disappearing cream Is mhde as
follows: White wax, 1 ounce; sper-
maceti, 1 ounce; almond oil, 4 ounces ;
rose water, a ounces. Use as described
above. Can be put up by any druggist
or at home, remembering that the more
q cream Is beaten the smoother 1t
will be.
