THE INTELLIGENT coMposIroR

An old-time printer writes the fol- lowing to the Typographical Journal, lt might be said in passing that the only chickens now seen in newspaper offices are the kind that came in with the advent of the typewriter;
 As the years rush by and modern newspaper composing rooms take on more and more the aspect of boiler factory, memories of the yesterdays become interesting. In 1874 | wan dered into the composing room of the New York Tribune looking for a nights work. At that time many stor- ies of the Tribune's famous editor, Horace Greeley. were rife. There was much talk about his handwriting that no one could read (typewriters were not much in use in those days) and it was claimed that there was but one man who could set up Mir. Greeley's editorials. And here comes the story. One of Mir. Greeley's former admirers brought in q very fine chicken as present. The office boy made a pen in one corner of Mir. Greeley's room So put the chicken in. Then another chick en happened in, brought by another ad mirer This gave the office boy won derful idea. Getting hold of another lad. they spread the floor with sheets of copy paper. Then they got an ink roller from the proof press and thor oughly linked the chickens feet and set them fighting on the paper. When they were tired out they were put back in their pens and the boys gathered up the paper. numbered the sheets, and put them on the tvpe case of the edit. orial compositor When this gentleman arrived he hung up his coat and hat, looked at the bunch of paper on his case and remarking.

LOCAL POTATOES CHEAP
Present Prices Lowest in Thirteen Years Says Department of Az
 rsSasiure

In these days of high prices Con- nectieut consumers will welcome the news that Green Mountain potatoes have reached the lowest level during a period of thirteen years.
 This information, furnished by the Connecticut Department of Agrieul- ture. is based upon market reports over series of years covering the principal markets in this state. In- creased acreage and favorable growing season account in large measure for this condition.
 Of added interest to the consumer is the fact that native potatoes are appearing on the market in excellent condition for home storage.
 While fall prices in recent years may not have warranted the home storage of this universal and staple product, present prices would seem 10 encourage Q return of this former practice which is merely another ex- ample of New England thrift
 It is far better business under present conditions for the Conneeti- cut housewife to purchase for home storage potatoes of known origin grown under favorable conditions and freedom from disease than to ex- pertinent wilh potatoes, the keeping qualities of which are more or less uncertain.
 True economy is not always ey- pressed by purchasing the cheapest stock on the market especially for storage purposes. High quality ma. tive stock is at present 90 reasonable in price that practically every house wife can afford to use plenty of such potatoes this fall and winter.

CORN BORER
Control Methods Demonstrated Before Farmers of Wind
 ham County.

A demonstration of the control methods used in fighting the European corn borer was held at the farm of C. l.. Benham, Brooklyn, on the after noon of October 3l. Fifty farmers from Windham County turned out to see the demonstration and to hear the talk given by ]. $. Stockbridge of the United States Department of Agricui- ture.
 Mir. Stockbridge displayed maps showing the spread of the insect In 1927 and the portion of the country that is already infested. He explained the life of the insect and said that in order to keep the insect from making the economical production of corn im- possible one of two things must be done by the farmers Either the corn must be cut less than two inches from the ground or the corn land must be plowed in the fall or early in the spring and all corn stubble. weeds. and other debris completely covered so that the borer does not have any place in which to go into the pupa stage in the spring.
 Two Methods
 A corn harvester WAS used tu snow how the corn should be cut close to the ground SO that there would be no borcrs left in the field The other method shown was that of plowng to completely cover all debris This was accomplished with tractor blow to which two iifteen-foot wires were at tached to keep the weeds, etc, in the furrow. After blowing there was very little if any debris left showing above the ground which prevents the multi plication of the pest
 The farmer who blows in the fall when he is not pushed for time bene- fits in that he has part of his spring work finished. Thus not only does this method of fall blowing keep the European corn borcr in control but is m advantage to the farmer who has his corn feid on level land.

are obtainaD.e in tie streets oi luxury.
 How much of this glitter is real remains a matter of guess-work Seen under the bright lights oi casinos, cabarets and theatres il is difficult to separate the true from the imitation.
 Precious stones which do not glitter go further than diamonds and their companion gems, emer aids and rubies, in the matter of size. Amethysts, aquamarines and topaz appear in miniature polished slabs. Onyx, jade and crystal are frequently measured in inches.
 Clouded crystal, which looks like moonstone, is the important element of the moment in jewel ry. Designers of the new schoor' are using it for almost every kind of ornament, including chains and finger rings.
 The Rue de la Paix displays what might be termed brooches. but are actually pendants meas uring as much az six inches across and from six to ten inches long. Crystal, onyx and jade ara the main elements in these pen dant-brooches.
 Even the lowiy button is affect. ed by the change in jewel styles. It may be made of crystal or jade and carried home from the jewell CTS in a satin-lined box.
