CLUB WOMEN RECLAIM
VALUABLE FURNITURE

Refnishing and otherwise reno
waiting shabby, discarded furniture
has been stimulated in many states
through demonstration work i'll
home improvement. Innumerable
old tables and other pieces have
been scraped and refinished, chairs
and sofas have been reuphOlstered,
chairs recaned or provided with
new rush bottoms, and many other
articles of furniture redeemed and
improved for continued use.
Many interesting reports on this
work have come to the United
States Department of Agriculture. a
hOme-demonstration agent in Ken
lucky writes: Zone woman went to
her meat house and hauled out an
oval table that the men had been
using as a meat block. One could
not tell what the wood was and the
top was fearfully hacked where
they had chopped the meat ON it.
The, owner scraped the top with
glass, taking off at least a quarter
of an inch of the wood TO smooth
the top. It was a beautiful piece Of
very old furniture; an oyal-shaped
end of a set of dining-room tables.
1t was beautifully inlaid.'
In another case, in South Caro-
lima, all the pulpit furniture of one
of the local churches was retinish-
ed and reupholstered by some of the
women in the community home
demonstration club. They removed
the paint from the three pulpit
chairs with a strong lye solution
and then rubbed them smooth with
steel wool. The chairs were then re-
finished. The old upholstery mater
ial was taken off the chairs and new
tapestry put on. This was finished
off with braid. The Bible stand, two
pedestals, and table were rubbed
with steel wool until smooth and
then refinished to match the chairs.
The women even reinished the rail
around the altar. The total cost was
s10.19.

4 BASEBALL CHALLENGE

Baseball is the best game ever de-
vised. 1t is the best game because it
is the most human, the most demo-
cratic, the fairest and the fullest Of
surprises. An. ordinary chess player
has no chance whatever against a
good player. An ordinary golf play
er has no chance whatever against a
good player. An ordinary bridge or
poker player has no chance waht-
ever against a good player. An Ordi-
nary billiard player has no chance
whatever against a good player
Most games depend mainly either on
skill or chance. Baseball involves
both skill and chance-and a lot of
other elements which put it in
class all by itself as the worlds
greatest game of all time. Baseball
can be played by almost any num-
ber of persons from one up. A scrub
game can be got up anywhere.
Young and old can take a turn and
girls can enjoy it. A cheap ball.
club grabbed Il panywhere and a
pasture for a field is all that is re-
Quired, The fun can be as fast and
furious with this sort of a set-up as
in any of the costliest stadiums.
People don't have to be just OnlOok-
ers-they can take part in the game
and get the benefit.
There is no other game that can
be mentioned in the same breath
with baseball-and we can lick any
body who says otherwise.-The

IN TINES OF DEPRESSION

In times of economic depression
assistance is readily given to phil
anthropic organizations engaged in
family relief. Even though a man is
unemployed he must be fed, clothed
and housed. But while help is gen
erously given to family relief organ
iZations that does not mean that
support should be withdrawn from
altruistic organizations described as
character building in their objec-
tives. In times of business distress
it is imperative that these organiza-
tions carry on.
The raising of funds for philan-
thropic purposes in many cities is
entrusted to a community chest or
ganization. These organizations are
now focusing on family relief activ-
tiles and in some instances have
asked certain character-building So
cieties to retrench.
Such an organization as the Boys
Club Federation of America illus
trates the point. Boys clubs have
been established in more than $50
cities serving more than 250,000
hoys- and are placing underprivileg-
ed youngsters in wholesome sur
roundings. A reduction in juvenile
delinquency is invariably the re-
suit.
Even in times like these it would
be most unfortunate if any boys
club suffered because of lack of ad-
equate financial support. The clubs
have seen the depression throw
upon them an added burden. They
should be enabled to carry on.

A CAFETERIA FOR LAYING HENS
By Prof. Paul G. Riley


In a number of sections all over
the country we find few poultry
men who have been inclined to do a
little home experimenting or test
ing of various methods of feeding.
One thing they have tried is to put
a hopper of grain and a hopper of
mash in front of their laying flock
and feed them in this way the year
round. This method of feeding
sounds interesting to the lazy man,
because it decidedly reduces labor
and takes less skill on the part of
the feeder.
At the University of Kentucky the
writer saw some hens which had
been fed in this cafeteria" fashion,
and the production from both Leg
horns and heavy breeds was very
satisfactory and indicates that the
practice has some possibilities.
In connection with the method of
feeding observed there, good dry
mash was kept in hoppers in front
of the birds, and grain was fed in
the same manner.
This practice has possibilities
with Leghorns and other light
breeds which are bred for high pro-
duction, and also with high produc-
ing strains of the heavy breeds.
However, it is doubtful whether it
is desirable for farm fiocks or for
birds of the heavy breeds which e
not particularly bred for high pro-
duction, and also with high produc-
ing strains of the heavy breeds.
However, it is doubtful whether it is
desirable for farm flocks Or. for
birds of the heavy breeds which are
not particularly bred for high pro-
duction, because it is likely that
they will put ON excessive weight !
and not give maximum production. /
1t is also likely that hand-feeding |
small amounts of grain during cold |
weather in the winter and damp, |
chilly weather in the fall and spring
is advisable, and certainly the care
taker should stir both the mash and
grain two or three times daily in
order to increase consumption.

the homes.
In this category are included the
nOn-acid vegetables, such as peas
beans, corn, okra, and squash
which are difficult to ster.lize. They
require temper atures of about 2400
to 2500 F. that can be obtained only
in a steam pressure cooker. 1t is
dangerous and it is wasteful to take
chances on inadequately sterilized
canned foods. Canned goods that
spoil waste the food itself, and also
the labor and expense of canning.
Spoiled food is dangerous. The saw
ing of nOn-acid vegetables by can
ming should not be undertaken, the
bureau says, unless they can be OBJ
tanned fresh and held under cold
storage if canning is to be delayed
even briefly. Many of these vege-
tables, however, can be dried sue
cessfully and some may be preserV-
ed by sailing.
The Bureau of Home Economics
has available to the public a bulle-
tin on canning fruits and vegetables
at home, which was revised this
year and which contains detailed in
formation on the various methods of
home canning. Other publications of
the bureau discuss jelly making;
pickles and relishes; jellied grape
fruit and lemon peel; jams and con-
serves; and some special ways of
utilizing peaches.
Other bureaus of the Department
of Agriculture have published bull
letins on home made fruit buffers,
which include peach, plum and pear
as well as the better known apple
butter; hCme drying of fruits and
vegetables; vinegar making; infer
mented apple juice; unfermented
grape juice; home storage of vege-
tables; and the making of fermented
pickles; and commercial production

insufficient bracing of the frame.

The quantity of feed laying hen
eats varies widely. A hen will eat
more of one kind of feed than of an
other. A big hen eats more than
little one. A layer has to eat more
than lOafer Hens will usually eat
more of a mixed-grain ration than
of ration made up of only one
grain. Leghorns and similar small
breeds eat less than birds of the
larger breeds. Usually birds bred
for high egg production consume
sluightly less feed than birds of the
same size of less productive strains.
Records at agricultural experiment
stations show that LeghOrns laying |
an average of $50 eggs a year con- /
sumo about so pounds of grain an /
nually, and that general-purpose +
breeds with the same production eat .
about 81 pounds. Hens usually eat .
more grain during seasons of heavy
egg production.

"SAVE THE SURPLUS"
FOOD PLANS AIDED BY
FEDERAL INFORMATION

Assistance for housewives and
welfare organizations which are
centering their attention right now
on saving the surplus fruit and veg
etable crops is offered by the Blu
reau of Home Economics and other
bureaus of the U! S. Department of
Agriculture in the form of informa-
tion on canning, preserving, pick
ling, drying, and storing practically
all native fruits and vegetables.
With the passing of the day when
each family had TO make most of
the preparations itself for the win
ter's supply of food, the practice of
home canning and preserving has
gradually declined. During emer-
gencies such as the World War and
in the present economic situation
there is a revival of individual and
community effort to put away foods,
while they are plenty, for winter
use. Encouraged by large crops and
attendant low costs many persons
are working to save the surplus, net
only for their own personal use. but
for relief distribution.
Recipes for the various methods
of food preservation were formerly
a matter of great family pride. But,
with the shift to commercially pre-
pared foods, the home has lost much
of this sort of knowledge so that
this season when this "save the sur
plus" campaign got underway, can
rers had to seek outside infOrma-
tion. Moreover the surplus saw
ers" are canning kinds of fruits and
vegetables which they have never
canned before. And for some of
these there has been little or no sat

the half with either quint appearing to
be the winner.
In the second half, Ely kept pace
with Virginia until Banovetz hurt his
foot and was forced from the game
this greatly weakening Ely's defense
and offense so that Virginia gradually
drew away from the locals.
