The United States Department OF
Agriculture has made some investiga-

These studies indicate that this meth

account of its convenience and ease of
heat control. However, to obtain
these advantages. the prospective pur-
chaser must be willing to pay the cost
of changing to the new system, and
possibly an increased operating cost.
Before deciding whether change to

be thorough understanding of diff

"No." said King Snow.

a cold, cold whistle.

Clouds, too, eh?" asked Prince Sleet.
"By all MEANS" said old King Snow.
So Prince Sleet gave his long, cold
whistle and then called.
'King of the Clouds, King of the
Clouds, come with your Army of
Raindrops. and your own most loyal
self. come for trip with old King
Snow and Prince Sleet."
Soon along came the King of the
Clouds and the Army of Raindrops.
$50 we're going to have trip, eh?"
asked the King Of the Clouds. Prince
Sleet and old King Snow nodded
"And we're going to the earth, eh?"
asked the Army of Raindrops.
Again Prince Sleet and old King
Snow nodded.
MAY we come, too?" asked some
very cold, chilly voices, and they all
saw the Icicle Brothers coming near,
along with old Mr.. Freezing-Is-Fun.
Indeed you may" said Prince
Sleet, "and this will be the right sort
of place with all the right sort Of
travellers going along"
So they all started, led by Prince
Sleet.
They went down to the earth and

Household Hints

A vacuum cleaner is excellent for
cleaning automobile upholstery.
The behavior of children should
never be talked about in their hearing.
A child who Is worried, irritated,
unhappy, or over-tired at meal time
cannot digest his food properly.
To eat raw vegetables Is one way to
get the vitamines and the soluble min
erals which may be lost in the cooking
water.
Sweet potatoes keep best If they are
carefully handled to prevent bruising
or breaking the skin, and if they are
kept at a medium rather than a cold
temperature.
Drainboards on both sides of the
sink make dishwashing easier and save
the breakage likely to follow when
there Is nowhere but the sink to put
the soiled dishes.
