 .I<nID YOU ever go to a county eS fair?" asked the out-of-town
 customer, land see the exhibits of fat stock and neddlework thereY"
 Did I ever" asked Wilkinson. "Well, guess have, many and many a time. I remember that I once got stuck on a shell game, too, when I wasn't more'n z. I'd wandered away from the folks and before they found me I squandered a whole dime on a chance to tell where thought the little ball had gone to. got a good licking for gambling, but I did not mind, was so puzzled about the thing. You see, was sure knew exactly where the pesky thing was and I could not get over my amazement that it wasn't there"
 q never miss one if there is a fair within driving distance" said the out of-town customer. My wife doesn't care to go to them, but a fair, like a circus, can always draw me.
 My wife was with me last week when I ran down into some new ter ritory and I tried to get her interested in the county fair that was on, a few miles from there, but she didn't care to go to it. She has an old school friend in that county and told her that if she was going to run down to see Alice she'd better see the fair and so have something to tell her about. Fact was, as it turned out, she didn't hunt up the | friend after all.
 "It wasn't that my wife lacks loy- alty or the capacity for friendship, either" said the out-of-town customer. "When she makes a friend she keeps her and she is always doing things for her, too. Why don't know how many embroidered things she's made for Alice and sent to her for Christmas and birth days. My wife's a champion when it comes to the needle she can make any thing and her embroidery is wonder am always on the lookout for some thing new for her in the way of pat terms and I've grown to be something of an expert picking out new stuff I don't know what the things are, but when I find anything that looks differ ent from anything I've seen her try I get piece for her and she elaborates the design and makes a great thing out of the sample"
 "The make such lot of stuff by machine nowadays that the good olC art, are being forgotten" said Wilkin son. II can remember what a lot O things my grandfather used to mak' that aren't obtainable any more becaus' new machine-made things have takeI their place. suppose there aren't al many blind persons now as there uset

As soon as R; g. gedy Andy escaped from Mir. GoOly's house, he ran down the path towards Mir. Sanky's house, for he thought that Mir. Sanky still had Rag gedy Ann and little Walter priso1elJ. But what was Rag gedy Andy's surprise and delight, when, turning n bend ia the path, he ran into the other so hard, they both fell over backwards. but this did not hurt either. for being made of cloth and stuffed with nice soft, white cotton, they did not bump thleir heads as little boys and girls would have done.
 Well. Raggedy Ann, How did you happen to escape from Mir. and Mrs. Sanky?" Raggedy Andy asked.
 And how did you happen to escape from MT. Gooly, Rag gedy Andy?" Rag gedy Ann asked.

My Neighbor Says

To keep store dsilyer bright, be- fore it is put away, it should be carefully washed, polished and placed in flannel sbags. Colored flannel is best, as the chemicals used to bleach the white flannel are liable to tarnish the silver.
 If a skirt or coat dart is too full and stands out in a puffy manner, it may be corrected as follows: Lay a dampened cloth over the part to be shrunk and press with hot iron, redamnening and press ing until the garment is smooth. In sewing, always twist the cot ton and make a knot before break ing off the thread. After a little practice it vii be easy to do and wil save lots of time.
 To remove ink from linen, dip the article in milk and let it soak for about two hours; then take out and wash with soap while the milk stil remains on the spot.
 When flies are troublesome in the sick room try placing sweet peas in the room. The odor of them is so unpleasant to the flies they vii not remain where it is.

FORD SAVES MILLIONS OF
FEET OF LUMBER BY A
NEW WOOD SAVING PLAN

The Ford Motor company has in
stalled new wood-sawing system
which has demonstrated savings of
from 35 to so per cent in the cuttina
of fine hard wood for automobile
body parts by saving them direct
from unedged planks as they come
from the log, says Ed Babbitt, Flag
staff Ford agent.
In the past body parts have been
made out of ldln-dried boards, sawed
to uniform size and grade Much Of
the youngest and best wood was vast
ed and where the log was curved or
irregularly shaped the scrap often ex-
ceeded the merchantable timber OBJ
tanned.
The Ford system is absurdIy SIM
pie. Planks with the bark left on are
cut from a log in parallel planes vary
ing according to the shape of the log.
These are sent to Layout tables"
where patterns for various parts are
marked out until the plank is COM
pletely covered with patterns right
up to the bark. Any irregularities,
such as the swell at the butt, are
taken advantage of in laying out curv-
ed or irregular parts. Instead of
trimming off a large piece to avoid
a knot or check, the layout men
go around it. This method permits

che utilization of nearly all the wood
the scrap being extremely small. The
various parts are then cut out with :
high speed band saw.
Under conventional methods one.
third of the tree (the limbs and top)
is wasted before the log gets to the
mill.
A sample tree was cut into BODY
parts under the new method and the
results compared with the amount of
parts which the other method would
have given. The results were start
ling. The tree gave two irregularly
shaped logs which scaled 238 board
feet. There were also number of
branches, which we're sawed up and
marked for parts saving.
After the logs had been sawed and
the patterns laid out, the planks were
measured up according to the boards
which could be obtained under the old
edging and trimming method and the
number available parts in each COM
puted. The edging and trimming
method gave 127 board feet of body
parts. Under the Ford system the
same planks yielded 204, gain of
n board feet, or 80 per cent. The
limbs and top-hitherto considered
worthless, gave ITO board feet, maxi
ing total number of 1868 board feet
of parts as against the 127 feet un-
der the old method.
The body parts produced under this
method are superior to those sawed
out of edged and trimmed boards as
the grain may be followed more adj
vantageously. This is especially true
of curved parts, many of which are
found in body construction Much of
the youngest and best wood in the
tree was wasted under the edging
method, but this is now completely
salvaged. Not only are more parts
obtainable from tree, but better
parts as well.
AS the company's timber require
ments have already reached one mil
lion board feet day, the possible
savings under this new system may /
be estimated at several thousand feet
daily. But more important still, it /
appears to have insured a permanent |
supply of wooden body parts at time
when the disappearing hardwood for
ests were matter Of public concern.
