STRAIGHT TALKS
WITH AUNT EMMY
ON HOUSEHOLD BUDGETS

Aunt Emmy" asked Helen, won't
you explain what is meant by house
hold budget? You said something the
other day about budgets, but | don't
seem clear in my mind about it."
"A budget is simply a PLAN" said
Aunt Emmy. you plan what you are
going to do with your income. You
divide your income Systematically so
that you can meet your needs. You
lay aside part of your income for
rent. other parts for food. clothing,
heat. light, telephone. recreation, saw
ings and so on"
How are you going to know how
much you should spend for each thing
on rent for instance, Aunty?" asked
Helen.
Experts have studied the question
carefully and have worked out bud
gets to suit every income. OF course,
you can alter these typical budgets
slightly to suit your particular needs.
For example, the average budget that
covers incomes of from $4,000 to s10,-
900 a year divides your income into
six parts. Ten per cent for savings.
twenty per cent for rent, twenty per
what is called betterment and in
cludes education, amusement, enter
tainment, books, music, sports; fifteen
per cent for clothes and fifteen per
cent for operating expenses.
mo matter how you change the
other items you must not change the
savings allowance-except to increase
it. great majority Of men who
reach sixty are dependent on relatives
or charity. If they had saved only
ten cents out of every dollar. they
would not have been in that plight.
There is nothing like money in the
savings bank to help you through the
emergencies that come in everybody S
life. If everybody kept one years in
come in the savings bank, much mis-
cry would be averted. If you always
have enough money to see you
through one year, you are pretty
safe. Beyond that, 1t is wise to let
your money accumulate until you
have enough to buy some good Sc
curities. Your banker will advise
you about the securities that suit your
needs"
But, Aunt Emmy, suppose you
wanted to alter your budget?" in
quired Helen. How would you know
how to do 1t? A young married couple
might start on certain budget and
then, when they had children to feed
and educate, they might want to
change it."
well my dear, II they were in
doubt about their financial affairs,
they could always consult their bank
er. That is why it is so good to estab-
hsh friendly relations with a bank
when you start out in life. Any bank.
err will be glad to advise young people
about making their money go farther"

Hay Fever

Years ago we thought "Phelum
Pratense," which is nothing but tim
othy hay, caused the seasonal attacks
of asthma from which so many people
suffer during summer. We now know
that forty-four varieties of plants may
cause the disease and, although "pol-
len disease" would be better name,
hay fever it still remains. But to
those who have the disease as rose by
any other name would smell just as
sweet; so the misnomer is not worth
a sneeze.

Hay Fever Cures

Whenever there are ffty-seven va
rieties of cure for a disease, we know
none of them is any good. If any one
of them were a real cure the other
fifty-six would quickly pass into innoc-
uous desuetude. And that is precisely
the situation in hay fever-there is no
cure!
True, many persons have used one
remedy or another with beneficial re-
suits. But said remedy did not cure
the hay fever-it cured the patients

in his Uranium, and he had looked for
the same thing the following year, |
verify believe he would soon become a
full-blown hay fever victim. And |
just as firmly believe that many hay
fever patients contract the disease in
just that way. Certainly there are all
of that peculiar nervous temperament
that certain type which is prone to
indulge in the morbid fancies that are
the foundation of so many ailments.
The Pollen of Hay Fever
But what of the Pollen? Yes, it is
the exciting cause of hay fever. But
it isn't the only cause. Millions of
people who inhale pollen do not have
hay fever Why? Because they aren't
built that way-they aren't predis-
posed to it. Perhaps, in some cases,
the predisposing factor is an abnor-
mality of the nasal passages (polyps,
enlarged turbinates, detected sep
tum). But many people so afflicted do
not have hay fever, and many others
who have had their nose treated con-
tinue to have the disease. The ones
who were cured by nasal operation
owed their cure to their implicit faith
in the surgeons statement that it
would cure them.

asleep. The following morning he
learned that the pad was stuffed with

Pollen Extracts

Pollen extract is used more extern
sively each year and the results are
good if the doctor can convince the
patient it will cure him. Beyond their
physic effect | don't think they have
a particle of merit. The best cure for
hay fever is a change of residence or
a frost. The first takes the patient
where he thinks there is no pollen; the
second convinces him the pollen is
dead And he RECEIVERS.

that we comfort their spirits by hold

Cut Alfalfa Soon After
It Lodges, Saws Expert

Just what is the best time to cut
alfalfa for hay, all things considered
is problem which farmers and agri-
cultural experiment station workers
have not definitely solved, according
to A. G. Army, field crops specialist
of the Minnesota Agricultural Expert
ment station in talk before group
of scientists at the Minnesota station.
About one thing. however, Mr.. Army
was emphatic, and that was that al
falfa should be cut very soon after
it lodges, as it does generally in Min
nesota. The reason for this is that
when the crop lodges the leaves I'M
derneath turn yellow and fall off and
the hay produced is decidedly inferior.
In 1924 alfalfa cut before lodging re-
tanned so per cent Of its leaves, while
alfalfa cut after lodging retained only
"a per cent.
Mr.. Army, therefore, advises the i'm
mediate cutting Of alfalfa that has
lodged, even If it is only in the bud
stage.

Uniform Marking
System Is Urged
Plan Would Reduce Errors
in Regard to Ownership
to Minimum.

(Prepared by the United States Department
Of Agricuiture.)
marketing of live stock in co-opera-
tive shipments is very important fea.
ture In conducting the business Of
the shipping association, especially If
the stock is to be sold according to
ownership or If the commission firm
Is expected to prorate the returns to
each owner. It would be advisable to
establish uniform system of marking
I'VE stock for use by all associations
In the country, says the United States
Department Of Agriculture. Such a
plan would reduce errors in regard
to the ownership to a minimum. A
system Of marking which is suitable to
the needs of all associations has been
suggested, and is, briefly, as follows !:
Mark Cattle and Calves.
Cattle and calves would be marked
by using shears to clip four-inch
Roman numerals on one hip, pref
erably the right hip. Only the first
ten numerals would be used. A
single bar, like a. minus sign, placed
before each mineral would raise the
number by ten. Two parallel bars
before each mineral would raise it
by 20. Thus v, ", ", would mean
8, Is, and Is, respectively.
Hogs are marked by clipping the
numerals on the top Of the shoulder,
back or rump, using only such COM
binations as can be made with four
marks or less. Or they may be marked
on the side of the shoulder, body, or
ham, in which case not to exceed
three marks would be used. Shears
with curved blades about eight inches
long, commonly called "roaching
shears" are most generally used for
marking.
Fluid for Sheep.
Sheep are marked by using brand
ing fluid applied with half-inch stiff
round-bristle brush. The marks should
be placed on the head, top of Shout
ders, back, or rump. In no case
should paint be used for marking any
kind Of live stock. It is detrimental
to the wool Of sheep and unsatisfac-
tory on hogs because it smears.

Conuenient for Autoists

: With every car sold Paris auto
mobile dealer supplies pot of speciar
paint and sprayer, about the size Of
a fountain pen, so that scratches and
mars can be touched up at once to
keep the body looking new. Pressure
for applying the paint is obtained by
blowing through tube connected
with the .sprayer. While the prepara-
ton is specially adapted to covering
metals, it also may be used on fabrics
and leather.

Blindness in Hens

Hens may become blind due to bits
Of foreign material lodging around the
eyeball and starting irritation, or it
may be due to occular reup. Most
forms of colds and roup cause more
or less trouble in the eyes of the bird.
The blindness and weakness may be
the symptoms Of some disease. Some
times hen gradually becomes blind,
due to causes which it seems almost
Impossible to determine. In such
cases the only remedy Is to kill the
bird.
