When the National theater
closes for the regular season,
cleaners and decorators will move
in for an extensive summer face
lifting of the interior, and the
entire house will be reSeated.
These reS1ovations were decided
upon at a Meeting of the Rapley
theater company, the operating
corporation, when the annual re-
port showed that the National
theater will soon end one of the
most successful seasons in its
history.
On top of last Seasons's pros
porous business it can be stated
definitely that the legitimate
stage in Washington has emerged
from the doldrums of depression
and is once again on Dividend
street.
About $4,000 will be expended
on the theater's housekeeping, in
the most extensive renovation
that has been applied since the
E Street house was remodeled
in the early 2O's. The latest in
modern and comfortable theater
seats will be installed and there
will be a new decorative scheme
to greet patrons when the doors
open in the fall for the 1878 sea-
son.

Sunlight Is Source Of
Vitamin D; Aids Poultry

Sunlight Is just as essential to
good poultry health as green feed,
fresh water and clean quarters. The
wise poultry raiser, whether he has
a stable flock or only a few hens,
will find profit in providing proper
sunshine. Pens, runways, feeding
houses, brooders and yards should
be planned carefully to take full
advantage of the health-giving rays,
says a writer in the Los Angeles
Times.
! Know, too, that sunlight Is an
important source Of vitamin D, es-
sential to normal growth and health
of all animals. In the case of poultry,
they need the vitamin D. Of the
SUMS rays because:
a. Adult birds become weakened
and soon develop ricketts, without
adequate sunshine. Without the sun,
the growth of young birds is stunted
and they turn out to be sickly,
scrawny specimens.
(2) Egg production Is affected
vitality: If your flock is producing
soft or paper-thin shelled eggs, the
reason may be that it is not getting
enough sunshine.

Age of Fresh Eggs

The freshness of an egg is not
determined by its age, notes a
writer in the Philadelphia Record.
J. Hansen French, secretary Of
agriculture, in response to queries
explained that the new fresh egg
law contains no time provision.
Eggs cannot lawfully be advertised
as fresh unless they conform with
the following standards: The air cell
must be not more than one-quarter
of an inch in depth and must be
localized and regular; the yolk must
be visible but not plainly visible or
mobile; the white must be firm and
clear; the germ must not show any
visible development. Properly main
tanned eggs will come within the
provision of the law after weeks Of
Of storage.

A good, clean pasture for spring
narrowed pigs will pay big dividends
at marketing time next fall.
When on good pasture, the sow
and pigs are protected from disease
and parasite infection and provided
with feed essential to health and de-
velopment. And pasturage is the
cheapest form of feed that can be
given the young porkers.
Soy beans planted in rows and
cultivated twice will furnish excel
lent grazing from the time the
plants are about Is inches high un-
til frost.
On good land an acre of soy beans
will support Is to 20 shotes, provid-
ed they also receive full feed Of
corn and good protein supplement.
Such pastures should be sown on
land where pigs have not been all
lowed to range during the previous
year or so. Best results will be OBJ
tanned if the land has been cultivat-
ed with some crop since the last
time swine were on it.
Land used for hog pasture or hog
lots during the past year may be
infested with parasites, particularly
worms, or other forms Of disease
producing organisms.
To get the pigs in top shape for
fall market they should be kept on
full feed at all times.

Yellow Newtown Apple

The Yellow Newtown apple, which
has grown for many years In Vir-
ginia and is there known locally as
the Albemarle Pippin, was brought
to that state by DR.. Thomas Walker
who was a physician with the Vir-
ginia troops during the French and
Indian war. After the defeat Of
Braddock, Doctor Walker returned
to his home in Virginia and appar-
emily carried scions Of the apple
trees in his saddle-bag. These scions
were successfully grated on trees
at his home in Castle Hill, Abe

Of straw in a stack, multiply the

by one-fourth the distance over the

HERBERT WORK
PRESENTED

Victor Herbert'S operetta,
"SweetheartS," was given last
night at Roosevelt High School
as the initial production Of the
Columbia Light Opera Company
under the direction Of Mrs. Ethel
Manning. Accompanied by q
seven.piece professional orchestra,
staged with elaborate scenery and
lighting effects and colorful cos.
TUNES, the production was re-
ceived with high appreciation by
o large audience.
The use Of an orchestra, even
though it was made UP Of only
seven musicians, so enhanced the
production that 1t was greeted as
an outstanding amateur event Of
the season. The cast Of 50-odd
singers was well.trained, although
the diction Of both choruses and
principals was obscure.
The acting and dialogue were
convincing. Mrs. Manning, with
her production staff, has set q
