Cross Breeding
Creates Strong
Bantam Variety
BY HORACE MITCHELL.

WE'VE had some items in the COL
w umn before about fellow named
Everett Billings Of Kittery Point. Me.
You may remember them. Now Bill
ings has achieved something new. He
has created his own strain of bantam
chickens and made them CONNER
cially profitable. You'll be interested
in knowing about them.
Most Of the pure-bred strains Of
bantams are not very hardy or very
profitable for the average owner. The
birds don't lay many eggs, and If they
are not properly cared for. they do
not do we'll at all. OF course, all pets
need proper care, but with certain
kinds the care must be more proper"
than for others!
Billings has been raising various
breeds of bantams for a good many
years. About 1928 he was struck with
the idea of cross-breeding all of them
to see what would happen. The next
season he crossed them again, and then
again, until now he has birds that are
the result of mixing over A different
| breeds.
Usually no three Of them are ex-
actly alike" he says. I'm one hatch
of a dozen eggs there1l be every
color known to poultry and some that
have never been seen before. They
come in all sizes, too. And another
odd thing. they show different strains
of their ancestry. Some chicks will be
like their great-grandfather, some like
their mother, and so on

It had started to rain almost as soon
as they left home for the drive to Nor
cross, and they had watched the game
through a cold, penetrating drizzle.
Then the defeat did nothing to make
them feel happier. They had had din
ner at Norcross, and their choice OF
a restaurant had been unfortunate.
Then they had started home, TO run
into still worse rain, mixed with occa-
sional sleet.
Johnny had suggested a cutoff
which he thought would get them
home sooner. and because they were all
cold and uncomfortable. Bill had
agreed to try it. But the road was
so bad that driving took all his atten-
ton, and he had said hardly a dozen
words to Dorothy since they started.
Bill felt rather guilty about that, but
there was no help for it.
Suddenly. out Of the corner Of his
eye. Bill saw Dorothy shiver.
Whats the matter, Dorothy?" he
inquired. Are you cold?"
Dorothy Lyon nodded and turned
her dark eyes toward him.
Yes, I am" she replied. But It's
not Just that This is such lonely
road and it's such bad night. II
guess I'm having an attack Of the
jitters."
Bill laughed sympathetically. This
night is enough to give anybody the
jitters," he agreed. Then he uttered
an exclamation Of dismay. Look!
That sleet is turning into snow. Now,
isn't that going to be help!"
Beth's voice was concerned as she
asked from the back seat: How about
chains, Bill? I don't suppose we have
any, do we?"
Not in the car" Bill replied. But
gosh, the snow won't be bad enough
for chains. 1t will melt as fast as it
hits the wet road"
We'll" commented Johnny cheer
fully. I'VE oughtn't to have more than
about 10 miles of this road left. That's
one consolation"
"Old Optimist Apperson!" said Bill
sarcastically. IF you had to pilot this
tub you'd think it was plenty!"
"Oh, but you're doing splendidly.
William" said Johnny sweetly. 81

wheel, you big, strong mani"
THE girls giggled and Bill couldn't
help smiling. But suddenly the
smile froze on his face. They were
rounding a curve and suddenly a pair
of blazing headlights shot up through

Chickens Scanty
But Betty Makes
Successful Salad
BY BESSIE z. EARLE.


FCRACIOUS!" walled Betty as she
looked in the ice box. 81 don't
zee enough chicken left for a salad.
Mother said there would be. What
shall we do? You know. unexpected
company has come for supper. Oh,
what shall do?"
There, honey, don't be distressed.
Well use what chicken there is and
surprise everybody with a delicious
salad. Just look in the ice box and
Gee II there is any celery and lettuce?"
"Yes, plenty" answered Betty.
Zine! Now see If there is can
OF sliced pineapple in the pantry"
Betty went to the pantry and re-
turned with can. Nov, what next.
Dinah?"
ANY nuts?" she asked. "If there
aren't, we can leave them out; 1t won't
make any difference"
Eyes, we have some. Those pecans
mother brought from Texas on her
way home"
Zine. We are all ready now. Get
the chicken and remove every bit Of
meat from the bones"
Betty worked quickly while Dinah
directed her. Soon Betty's mother
came into the kitchen to see how the
salad progressed. You can imagine
the pleasing surprise she received when
she saw a beautiful salad all arranged
on a large platter. And you know
how happy Betty was when her mother
kissed her and told her she was the
dearest little cook in the world.

once, when the West was still the
wild West" I went up into the
sand hills Of Northwestern Nebraska
on Q hunting trip among the many
small lakes In that region. It was q
great game country at that time, and
settlers were few and far between.
Automobiles had not yet been in
vented, and all travel was In wagon
or on horseback. My outfit was q
light spring wagon with saddle horse
led behind. BY using the saddle horse,
! could 60 anywhere from camp with
out taking the wagon or team. My
saddle horse was good one and such
horses were priced possessions In those
days. I thought q lot Of him, and took
good care Of him, for he seemed al
most human In his understanding Of
hunting.
One evening pulled in and camped
on the shore Of q fine little lake sew

my camp said "Howdy," and asked II

for supper. They accepted my invita-
tion and soon we were chatting over
our fried prairie chicken, aapjacks,
and coffee beside my camp fire.

Then went out and brought my team

them there on lariats so they could
feed on good grass.
The saddle horse was not far from
the wagon, but I debated with myself
about bringing him in closer. How

Magnetised Glass
Makes a Battling
But Simple Trick
BY THOMAS THE MAGICIAN.

D1 4hOuho 4nL MAOAtAANs
THE magnetized glass Is a simple
trick which never fails to mystify
and entertain any one who wit
nesses it.
Effect: The performer places a
small drinking glass on the palm of
his hand. He then slowly turns his
hand over. but the glass does not
fall, even though 1t is completely in
verted. Some one Is then asked to
lift it of. Much to his surprise, he
finds it is very dificult to do so, as
the glass seems to be magnetically
attracted to the performers hand.
Explanation: An ordinary glass is
used, but it must be one that has
slightly concave bottom. One that
has q perfectly fiat bottom. will not
do! The bottom Of the glass must
be slightly moistened in order to
maintain the vacuum necessary. Hold
the left hand out loosely. set the glass
Evening star., 1935-11-17

on the ball Of the thumb and press
down firmly. This will squeeze out
all the air in the concave depression
in the glass. Straighten out the left
hand and at the same time move the
glass from the ball Of the thumb to
the palm with a twisting motion,
making sure to keep up the pressure
between the glass and your hand
You will have to try this a few
times to get the proper manipulations.

flash Bill saw that crash was
almost inevitable.
He swung abruptly to the right and
the car shot by. missing them by
inches. He felt his own wheels leave
the pavement and slide In the soft
mud of the road shoulder. Instinc-
lively he cut the wheels toward the
left. The front of the car came back
up on the road, but the back wheels
skdded in the treacherous muck.
Bill saw the culvert ahead only
dimly. Then he heard the crash. The
jerk almost pulled the wheel from his
hands as they struck the concrete OBJ
struction. The car stopped, seemed to
shiver, and then slowly settled half
over on its right side in the ditch.

that's all. Are you hurt, Johnny?
And Bill! Are you hurt?"
Johnny and Bill answered in chorus
that they we're uninjured. Then, Just
as Beth uttered a frightened cry, Bill
swung quickly around to look at Dor
othy. She was sitting crumpled up
against the door. motionless and still.

Somehow he got the door on his
side open, and with the help Of

wheel and out of the car. Beth
grabbed the blanket from the rear
seat and laid 1t on the wet highway
in the glare Of the one good head

IL shifted his hands to a firmer
grip on the steering wheel. His foot
nursed the accelerator carefully. alert
to leap to the brake pedal if some
twist In the dark and narrow road
presented an emergency. The steady
click-clack Of the windshield wiper
and the beat of the rain against the
steaming windows rose above the
drone Of the motor.
well, Johnny" Bill said grimly to
his friend in the back seat, you may
have known what you were talking
about when you said this road was
short cut, but wish We had stuck to
the main highway. No rough, winding
short cut is q bargain on night like
this!"
Its not so hot. Is it?" agreed
Johnny Apperson. Then he looked at
Beth Gaylord. seated beside him. and
grinned. But as long as don't have
to drive, why should worry?"
Bills answer was disgusted grunt.
He eased the car around particularly
sharp curve and lapsed once more into
silence. His hands on the wheel were
stiff, for the November night was cold,
and he was tired. Maybe not just
tired; perhaps it was partly the effect
of having watched his high school
take a beating that afternoon in the
final foot ball game of the season.
IT REALLY hadn't been very sue
cessful party, Bill admitted to him
self. He and Beth. his twin sister,
had been overjoyed when Mr.. Gaylord
had allowed them to take the car and
drive to Norcross for the game. They
had invited Johnny as matter of
course, and they had decided on
Dorothy Lyon as the other girl.
It had really been Beth's idea, rather
than Bills, that he should ask Dorothy.
"I think it would be nice thing to
do" Beth had told him. II know you
don't know Dorothy very well, but she's
a peach. And she has been pretty un-
happy since her brother was shot in
that payroll hold-up last September.
I think it would cheer her UP to go
with us to the game"
Bill had consented, and Dorothy
had accepted his invitation. But now
as he removed his eyes from the road
long enough to steal quick glance
at the girl beside him, Bill decided
that the trip hadn't been much Of
success as far as cheering Dorothy up
was concerned.
