BACKYARD FLOCK CONVERTS
 TABLE SCRAPS INTO EGGS

In every household no matter how economical the housewife, there is a certain amount of table scraps and kitchen waste which has feeding value. but which, if not fed, finds it's way into the garbage pail.
 Poultry is the only class of domes- tic animals suitable for converting this waste material right where it is produced in the city, into wholesome and nutritious food in the form of eggs and poultry meat.
 Each hen in her bullet year should produce 10 dozen eggs, poultry spe- cialists of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture say. The aver age size of the backyard flock should be at least 10 hens. Thus, each flock would produce in a year 100 dozen of eggs, which. at the con servative value of 35 cents a dozen. would be worth $35.
 By keeping backyard poultry flock the family would not only help in reducing the cost of living but would have eggs of a quality and freshness often difficult to obtain. | Remember that eggs produced by l the backyard flock cost very little, as the fowls are fed largely upon waste l materials.

 Washington, Nov. b. A conference of women representing every section of the country to draft a program for imme mediate and nationwide relief from the housing situation was proposed to- day by Mrs. Clara Sears Taylor, a member of the District of Columbia Rent Commission, and one of the six women appointed by President Will son to executive offices.
 There is t'too much talk and too little action,' Mrs. Taylor declared. and it is time for the women to take a hand.
 Housing is primarily a woman's question: she said. ''The health of the nation will seriously suffer unless immediate remedy is provided for the present congestion and high rents. It is for the women to come together

ROADSIDE PRODUCE SELLING BRINGS PROFITS IN NEW YORK.

Despite the fall slump in produce prices, a number of farmers in the vicinity of New York are receivins higher prices for their produce than ever before.
 One of these farmers located 20 miles from New York on a main Agriculture Meredith urging him to encourage roadside selling of farm produce direct to consumers at the farm. This farmer stated that he had disposed of practically all of his fruits and vegetables in this way, people coming from quite a distance to make purchases. EVeryth1ns except some corn was sold right at the gate" he wrote, .'and at better than city prices in many instances The consumers have received their fruit and vegetables absolutely fresh and there have been no mlddlemen to absorb part of the profits.'' There are hundreds of individual
 roadside markets throughout the
 success, say specialists of the Bureau of Markets, United States Depart
 ment Of Agriculture Of course, 1t could not be recommended that farm | CTS abandon their regular marketing | channels to take up this plan of mar | ketfng, but there are many instances I where farmers located near con-
 suming centers and on main high
