and was given my morning coffee and
my allowance of warm water by her
every single morning; and yet here she
was standing heroically against a
scene Of great splendor, declaiming an
tique words as if they were native to
her tongue. It was disconcerting, to
say the least-just as any metamor-
phosis is disconcerting; just as if your
harmless domestic cat had suddenly
begun to roar and lash its tail like a
leopard. I shifted uneasily and waited.
After a while she turned her head
slightly toward me.

reason why you should think you are

game. Use your common sense. God

plain, ordinary scoundrel, and if you
seem to, you also know that he not

still she carried cans of water up

her beauty by this time was something
quite unique.
One evening when I came down to
the inn I found old George sitting
at a table under an olive tree with
a stranger. George hailed me with

and asked me to have a drink.

tested a full cup should be used.
Cover the container with double
thickness of heavy wrapping paper,
tie tightly around the top and leave
FOR at least two days. If the insects
ire still active, repeat the treat
ment. The containers should be
kept covered at all times.
CUES. How often should new
blood be introduced in the poultry
ANS. In general, it is wise to Sc
cure new blood on the male side
every two years, but great care
must be exercised in selecting the
source of these new males. Pedi-
greed males should be used if posi-
bic, but if these cannot be secured
only males from proven profitable
flocks should be purchased. Many
flocks have had the laying qualities
bred out of them because of excessi-
We, uncontrolled inbreeding or be-
cause of poor judgment in selecting
new males. Your county agent can
be of great assistance in selecting
the sources of good birds.
CUES. When should lespedeza be
cut for seed?
ANS. The Korean variety may be
cut for seed about October 1, and
the other varieties just after the
first hard frost. If the crop has
been cut for hay enough second
growth will be made to reseed the
land, but it is seldom possible to re-
move a hay crop and a seed crop the
same year. After cutting, the Kor-
can variety is left in the barn or
stacks for few weeks and the seed
threshed out on a grain separator.
Seed from the Common, Tennessee 76,
and Kobe are harvested with a seed
pan.

Worms Often Attack
Stored Dried Fruit

Fruits and vegetables now being
preserved by drying may become in
tested with worms, warns DR.. z. P.
Metcalf, etomologist at State College.
To protect dried fruits and vege-
tables from infestation, he suggested
that they should be stored in tight
paper bags or other containers which
can be kept tightly closed.
The dried foods should be exa-
mined from time to time to see whe-
Their worms have appeared. If they
get into the foods in spite of the pre-
cautions taken, the foods should be
heat-treated.
DR.. Metcalf says the fruits and We
getables found to be infested
should be heated to a temperature of
at least 1875 degrees fahrenheit for

Offers Suggestions
For School Lunches

The school lunch should be apeti-
ling as we'll as nourishing, to tempt
the youngsters to eat a sufficient
of the right kinds of food.
A well packed lunch is not diff
cult to prepare, but it should be Civ
en- care and thought, said Miss Sal
lie Brooks, assistant extension nut
ritionist at State College.
About one fourth of the child's
food requirements for the day
should be supplied in the school
lunch. The lunch should be consid-
cred along with other meals OF the
day in balancing the diet.
Three or four kinds of food are
enough for lunch. Suitable foods
from which selections may be made,
Miss Brooks said, include:
Sandwiches made from day-old
bread, preferably whole wheat, igh-
tly buttered and with Filings made
from chopped eggs, minced meats,
cheese, chopped nuts mixed with
cheese, jam, or vegetables.
Fruits either raw, stewed, fresh, or
dried or fruit juices.
Sweets such as baked or boiled
custards junkets, cookies, small
amounts of homemade candies, or
milk chocolate.
A hot dish such as cocoa, creamed
dishes, creamed soups, carried in a
thermos bottle or made and served
at school
The lunch should be carried in a
ventilated container that can be
washed and scalded, and which in
cludes a thermos bottle. Select
foods that pack we'll and will taste
good when cold.
Paper napkins, waxed paper, and
screw top jars for salads, stewed
fruits, and the like will facilitate
packing the lunch in an attractive
way. Food to be eaten first should
be placed on top.

Timely Questions
And Answers

CUES. What can I use to keep in
sects out of my stored beans and
peas?
ANS. The best preventative is to
treat the seed with carbon disulp-
hid. The beans or peas are put into
water tight barrel or some other
container that can be made air tight.
The container is filled with the seed
to within few inches of the top
and the carbon disulphid poured on
the seed. For ordinary infestations
one-half cup of carbon disulphid
should be used to the barrel of seed,
but where the seed are heavily in

two hours or longer.
The oven of an ordinary cook
stove makes as good place as any
to heat the fruits or vegetables, pro-
vided it has thermometer to indi-
cate the temperature.
If the dried foods become reinfes-
ted after the heat treatment, repeat
the treatment, Dr. Metcalf added.
While this method has not been
tried on all kinds Of dried fruits and
vegetables, he said, it has not injur-
ed the flavor or keeping qualities of
those on which it has been tried.
It has also been pointed out that
dried fruits and vegetables should
be stored in dry place to protect
them from mould.

"At school, 1 was jealous If the
teacher paid a compliment to
anyone else, or If my girl chum
had a sundae at the drugstore
with some other girl.
81 have been married five years,
and while am sure that I have
no actual cause for jealousy, my
husband told me the other day
that if 1 didn't behave reasonably,
he would have to leave me.
81 am jealous when my little
daughter is affectionate to her
father. Why do 1 suffer so? Is
there any cure for jealousy like
mine?" MISERABLE WIFE"
The only suggestion one can
offer to a woman who realizes
that she is jealous without cause
is for her to consult good alien
list, for she has arrived at the
point where she is seeing specters
and is encouraging herself in hal
lucinations. Some victims Of
jealousy have had themselves
psychoanalyzed with success.
This kind of unreasonable jeal-
ousy has broken up as many mar
riageS as the "other woman" Be

yourself psychoanalyzed, if you
want to keep your home together.

we've all had orchids or wild

The scottie we've sketched has
a tail that quivers, most anus
ingly. This little doggie is 81,
and he is on a pin. Another
pin is bird with an olive
branch in it's mouth, the olive
branch all a-quiver. The bird
is in rhinestones, the olive
branch in green stones and
rhinestoneS. The bird sells for
81. But if you're a real con.

you'll want a boat, quivering on

in different types, have colored
stones as well as rhinestones,
and are really stunning pins.
They sell for $3.50 each.
