Question Box By ED WYNN
The Perfect Fool

Dear MT. Wynn:
 Can you help me out? The fn- side of my home has been painted and the odor of fresh paint annoys me. What shall I do to take away the smell of the fresh paint? There are nine rooms in the house.
 Yours truly,
 I. NJ. CHOKING. Answer In a house of nine rooms use the following formula: Fourteen pounds of onions-slice fine; two pieces of garlic-crushed; then, mixed into onions. Place about one and one-half pounds of this mixture in each room. That will take away the smell of fresh paint.
 By the way--if the onions are too strong for you just put another coat of paint in each room. Dear Mir. Wynn:
 Do you believe 1t is right to turn tramps away from your door?
 Yours truly,
 MAY B. U. KNO. Answer: By no means turn tramp away from your door. Let him sit there as long as he wishes. Dear Mir Wynn:
 I read in a newspaper where you said: 'The most disappointed man you ever met was chap who has spent six months curing himself of 'halitosis' only to find out he was unpopular anyway. Can you tell

superintendent Seigel remarks
that the grades received by the high
school students for the first six
weeks of this semester indicate that
most of the students should spend
more time in real study. Grades
represent a students achievement
for subject and from present in
dications very few are getting all
that they should out of school.
However, there are some who
seem to have a real purpose IN be-
ing in school and are accomplishing
a good deal for themselves.
Those who nave shown outstand-
ing work and whose names appear
on the honor roll are Barbara De-
Camp and Phyllis Brooks. Honor
able mention is made OF Maurine
Lamb.
To make the honor roll the stu
dents must have two AS in academ-
ic subjects and no grade below B.
For honorable mention no grade
below B.
It is sincerely hoped that more
pupils names will appear on this
roll for the next six weeks. not so
much for the honor of having your
name there but the honor of get
ting the most out of school to help
prepare you for whatever the flu
ture has in store. It behooves STU
dents to do their best.

and stream of blood should flow
out through the mouth. If a flow
of blood does not start Immediately
the operator should make sure that
he is not preventing it by pressing
the blood vessels.
This method of killing is quite
humane, as it has been shown con-
clusively that any severing of the
jugular vein suddenly decreases
blood pressure in the brain, causing
immediate Inconsistencies even
though involuntary actions Of
nerves and muscles may cause the
dead chicken to flop or even squawk
for some time.
Attach weighted can through
the lower mandible of the bird to
catch the blood and prevent 1t from
Hopping about.
How To Pick A Chicken
Dip the chicken for half minute
Or more into water kept at 129 de-
grees Fahrenheit. This Is Suffici-
ent to cook the muscles holding the
feathers but not enough to cook the
skin or underlying fat. Stretch the
skin across the breast by grasping
both wings in the left hand. Then
pluck the feathers from both sides
of the breast with the right hand.
Next, take the feathers from about
the shoulders without changing the
position of the left hand. Then
swing the bird around, grasp the
main wing feathers with the right
hand and remove them with a sin
gle quick jerking motion. Remove
the smaller feathers of the wings
with the same hand.
1t will then be necessary to change
the position of the left hand to re-
move the tail feathers. After tax
ing the large feathers most pickers
remove the rest in order from the
back, abdomen, neck and legs. The
bird is then ready for chilling, head
wrapping and taking to market.

just as they have taken on the
maximum amount of flesh, because
after they have reached that stage
they lose weight rapidly. Mature
fowls stand this concentrated diet
for from one week to ten days and
young chickens from two to three
weeks. During the fattening the
birds are usually confined in bat
teries" which may be made up of a
series of poultry crates about two
or three feet in size with a capacity
of from eight to twelve birds each
Care must be taken to see that the
crates are well ventilated and kept
clean to prevent disease.
Once they are properly fattened,
poultry should not receive any food
for period of "a hours before they
go to the execution chamber. They
should be allowed access to water
only during the first IL hours of the
fast, as that helps to reduce shrink
age and aids the digestive tract to
empty.
If the fowls are not properly star
we'd, food products in the crop and
intestines begin to decompose. The
walls of the digestive tract are prac-
tically bacteria-proof when they are
nearly empty, but when expanded
they are thinner and the germs can
penetrate them more easily causing
infection in the surrounding flesh.
Expanded inteStineS are broken
easier, too, when the bird is being
drawn.
Fowls which are properly starved
bleed better when killed. The cor
rect method of slaughtering is one
which results in a Well-bled and at
tractive carcass free from bruises,
tears and other exposed cuts.
Humane Killing
The method of killing which is
largely used in commercial agencies
consists of sticking the bird through
the mouth. The chicken should be
suspended from shackles which are
attached to string and at point
slightly above the operators head.
The chickens head should be held
firmly between the thumb and first
AAA6CA VI G11C IC1U 11cl1O 1llu SllOU1u
be grasped between the eye and ear
on each side of the skull. Too great
a pressure here will stop the flow
of blood, so the operator should not
exert any more pressure than ne
cessary.
Hold the knife firmly in the right
hand and insert it into the birds
mouth until it is well back in the
throat. The point Of the blade
should be on the left side of the
back of the chickens throat and
should reach in through the mouth
in such way that the point is just
back of the skull and toward the
operators left hand With the bird
suspended by it's feet and it's breast
toward the operator, press down
with the point of the knife and
draw it slightly forward and across
the base of the skull to the right.

.Beebe Hatchery
Ready This Week
Completion Of New State Game
Department Propagation
Unit Is Near

Another new trout hatchery will
be added to the Washington state
game departments fish propagation
unit this week with completion OF
the Beebe Springs hatchery near
Chelan, the game department re-
ports.
This hatchery is a 48-trough af-
fair, and is supplemented by 10 cir
cular cement rearing ponds each
80 feet in diameter. Trout already
have been moved to some of the
ponds from the recently abandoned
Pateros hatchery in Okanogan
county.
Eyeing of eastern brook trout eggs
being taken at the game depart
ment's station at Owhi lake, Okan-
ogan county, is the first assignment
of the new hatchery. The cycling
capacity of the hatchery is estilnat-
ed at five million eggs.
In addition to Owhi lake, trout
spawn also is being taken by the
game department at Bear creek,
King county, where a stock of sill
YER trout eggs is being secured for
state hatcheries. Taking of silver
trout spawn also will be started
within short time at Lake What
com in Whatcom county.
"Siwashing'' Banned
Washington anglers were remind
ed today by the state game depart
ment that the feed egg regulation
banning "SiWaShing" becomes effec-
tive November 1.
The regulation, adopted last sum-
mer by the state game commission
is intended to eliminate such prac-
ticeS as placing of sacks of salmon
eggs in streams or lakes for the
purpose of concentrating fish within,
angling distance.
The regulation is not intended to
halt the use of single or cluster eggs
for batting hooks. 1t reads that it
shall be unlawful to place or de
post in any fish eggs, fish roe, food
or other substances for the purpose
of attracting fish"
Hunters Report Bags
Reports of big game hunts that
commenced trickling in to Wash
ington state game department head
quarters week ago are now multi
plying daily in numbers.
Blanks on which the reports are
filled out are a part of the big game
license issued to the purchaser of
every big game or bounty seal. Early
reports mostly have been received
from hunters successful in bagging
buck deer.
Over 500 hunters successful in Sc
curing venison had mailed reports
of their hunting expeditions to the
game department early this week.
State Pays BOunties
Bounty hunters collected $408 dur
ing the last three weeks in Wash
ington, according to the state game
departments report. Kills bountied
by state game protectors accounted
for 81 bobcats, 80 coyotes and four
cougars.

Killing And Picking
Poultry For Market
BY The Dept. of Poultry Husbandry
Washington State College

! BY The Dept. of Poultry Husbandry
Washington State College
The approach of the holiday sea-
son usually means an increase in
the activities of the poultry raiser
and farmer who send birds to mar
ket. Proper methods of killing and
plucking the birds not only makes
them more acceptable to the purch-
asing housewife, but results in the
poultryman receiving higher price
for his product.
The ordinary farm practice in
preparing poultry for the table is
merely the conventional guillotin-
ing with the aid of the family ak
and the chopping block. After the
bird is decapitated, and the head
less body stops Hopping about the
woodshed, it is hung by the legs
and dipped in scalding water after
which the feathers are pulled out
and the carcass turned over to the
tender mercies of the cook. This
type of killing has it's merits but
there are many disadvantages from
the standpoint of marketing.
Food is important to chickens at
all times, as what they eat during
their growing period has some in
fluence on their eating qualities"
But what they have consumed in
the two or three weeks prior to be-
ing sacrificed" is particularly i'm
portant.
Two general methods of fatten-
ing are recognized; namely, milk
feeding and corn feeding. To pro-
duce particularly good quality Of
flesh use milk feeding, special pro-
cess of feeding and handling. Corn
feeding is any other method, corn
being one of the most common
poultry feeds.
In milk feeding use mash large
ly made up of cornmeal, wheat mid
dlings and buttermilk. This method
of fattening takes skill. The birds
must be taken to the killing room

 "When we get Dyess completed we're hoping the government VIII let us develop a project further south for negroes" Eichenbaum eA- plained. ''If we get the okay, we would settle good hard-working colored folks on homes and land that would be charged up against them at total cost of around $l,- 900. With this as a laboratory or self-help for colored families, and with Dyess to work out great program for whites. we can go places if the government will ad- vance the money. I am convinced that here we have the secret that will answer the problem of the te- nant farmers and the land workers of America"
 Over and over again heard sim cere men and women working on the rehabilitation of beaten people express these same hopes. Not only are men and women given a fresh chance, but their children will be brought up under vastly different environment than their old. pow erty-stricken homes gave them. As one woman, working with the chil- dren of a colony, said to me: We have a swell crowd of young peo- ple-from two to five years old. They're the finest of all. We can really do things with them. We want to give them something more to follow than idle political prom ises. We want to build new life for them.''

"We got seven children and Nav there and we was right down to bed rock. Course therell be a lot of hard work for Bennett to clear off the land and get his crop in, but we'll all help. We got something to work for here. We got home and we'll have fine school, and there's al- ready a hospital with 30 beds in it. And we got our own Home Demon. stration Club. Mrs. Salyers, who's the head of it, is 8 wonderful wo- man. And we got Farm Agent who's a fine man, too, and we got a All club for the boys and girls.
