CHICAGO. = Valentine Horbiak,
age so, had a reputation as mas
ter mechanic. He was an inventor,
too, but his inventions never brough,
him recognition.
He decided recently to try again.
He constructed a new device. He
took a three-foot length of iron pipe,
inserted .38 caliber pistol cartridge
and fashioned breech lock with
small bit of cylindrical iron-al
most finished shotgun.
1t lacked only a firing mechanism,
so he kindled fire in his back yard
and thrust the breech of the weapon
Into the flames. A small boy
watched curiously over a back fence
as Horbiak seated himself before
the fire, the weapons muzzle pointed
at his chest. The boy asked him
what he was doing. Testing inven-
tion," he mumbled.
He sat inmobile. The heat in
creased. Finally there was roar
and he tumbled from his seat, the.
bullet from his homemade gun inn
bedded in his heart.

Pay for Dressing Poultry

The question is raised many times
among the poultrymen whether the
extra price received for poultry
dressed or both dressed and drawn
is worth the extra labor involved and
the loss in weight of the birds which
occurs in dressing. "a bird which
weighs three pounds alive" an ex-
pert explained, closes IL per cent
of its weight when blood and feather
dressed and q per cent when the
carcass is drawn and prepared for
cooking. A live bird weighing over
three pounds and up to five loses 10
per cent when dressed and Is per
cent when drawn, while live birds
of five pounds or more lose seven
per cent in weight when dressed and
18 per cent when drawn. In fgur-
ing the prices necessary to make up
for the loss in dressing, one must
consider the loss of weight as well
as the labor involved"

colors. Which is good news for the
woman who knows how to sew, for
it offers infinite possibilities to

to IDOL up" your felt hat with a

you are clever enough you can even
make zippered handbag of match
ing suede.

signful leaves or florals to applique

vestee will give your tweed suit
new lease on life. There is no limit
to the style fiourishes you can give
to your costume if you have the
knack of sewing backed with

10 poise as you take the speakers
platform at your club. Made OF
synthetic fabric, this stunning in
ternational dress, shown in smart
shops this season, has high neck
line accentuated by touch of
white, repeated in the bow of the
patent leather belt. Impressed
pleats stitched down through the
waistline and over the hips give
desired skirt fullness that succeeds
in retaining slim line. Soft pleats
achieve blouse fullness. Zippers fin
ish off the shoulder and sleeve open
ings. Hated in smart Persian
lamb chechia, milady carries muff
of matching fur to give smart &C.
cent to her appearance.
Apropos of the large muff versus
tiny muff see the huge affair that
gives distinction to the modish out
fit pictured in the oval inset The
tiny collar of this handsome after
noon coat and the muff of generous
proportions are of marten-dyed
skunk. The big bow so conspicu-
ously positioned on the muff is of
the identical cloth that fashions the
coat, the edges left casually frayed,
which goes to show what unexpected
and audacious whims the new muffs
exploit. Fullness in the sleeves and
gathers at the yoke line lend flat
tering softness to this afternoon coat
made of star sapphire blue tweed.
The wool dress underneath and the
felt hat are bright plum. This star
ting combination of blue and plum
is typical of the out-of-t he-ordinary
color alliances to be seen this sea-
son.
The purpose of the new muffs is
not only to be useful but they must
complement the costume in dec
.orative way. In creating these muffs
designers are going as far as they
please in evolving cunning and
whimsical CONNECTIONS that delight
the eye. Milliners are turning out
charming hat and muff sets made
of shirred velvet in luscious color
ings. Your frock, your coat or your
dress may be gravely conservative
but with one of the gaily colorful
muff- and-hat tWosomes it is trans
formed into an animated ensemble
warranted to brighten the dullest
winter landscape.

Alfalfa for Layers Is
Found to Be ADVANTAGE

No general agreement has been
reached on the question of how
much alfalfa should be fed in the
winter laying ration, but six
month record of egg production at
the Wisconsin experiment station
clearly shows the advantage of feed
ing some alfalfa. While pullets on a
basal ration, without alfalfa, aver
aged about rs eggs each in six
months, the various lots given al
falfa in the ration averaged from 81
to 1O7 eggs during the same period.
There was no evidence that as
much as 10 per cent of the alfalfa
in the ration was detrimental to egg
production or to the general we'll
being of the pullets. Neither was
there any particular advantage in
feeding such large amount. Some
investigators have expressed the
opinion that alfalfa should not make
up more than S per cent of the
mash or about 2 per cent of the en-
tire ration.
The Wisconsin workers suggest
that farmer who purchases alfalfa
leaf meal, but raises the grain need
ed for poultry ration will probably
find it more economical to use not
more than 5 per cent of alfalfa in
the mash. On the other hand, one
who grinds his own alfalfa hay for
poultry feeding may want to use 10
per cent.

FARM
Tories
PLAN AMPLE DIET
FOR DAIRY COWS
Weight, Amount Of Milk as
Guide to Feed Needs.
| BY w. T. Crandall Extension Service. New
York State College of Agriculture.
WNU Service

York State College of Agriculture.
WNU Service.
The weight of the dairy COW and
the amount of milk she gives deter
mine largely the amount of feed
necessary during the winter months
when pasture is no longer available,
recent research shows.
Each COW should receive about
three pounds of silage for each 100
pounds of weight. A 1000 pound
COW, for example, should have 80
pounds of silage. Twice each day
the cow should have all the good
hay she will eat. When silage is
not available it may be replaced by
good hay at the rate of l pound to
3 pounds of silage.
The amount of grain to feed de-
ponds on the breed, the volume of
milk produced, and the quality of
the roughage. A Jersey COW that
produces less than 10 pounds of milk
and receives all the good roughage
she can eat should need no grain,
but for every pound of milk over 10
pounds she should get one-half
pound or slightly more of grain.
A Jersey that gives 20 pounds of
milk would thus receive S to 6
pounds of grain. A Holstein that is
giving only Is pounds of milk or
less needs no grain, but for every
pound over 16 she should get four
tenths of a pound of grain, accord
ing to experiments by the United
States department of agriculture.
The feeder must be guided by the
condition of the cows. If cows are
getting thin give them more grain.
If they are getting fat reduce the
grain. They should be neither fat
nor thin.

I ADY, your muff! 1t will never do
to forget your muff. Orders is or
ders and Dame Fashion will never
forgive if you 60 costumed this win
ter sans an intriguing muff-using
the word Intriguing" advisedly for
the cunning muffs being turned out
this season are just as whimsical
and cunning as can be.
Not only are muffs decidedly Gin"
(nothing less than a riot of muffs)
but designers are playing them up
in every mood. Big muffs, little
muffs, muffs of precious furs and
muffs conjured of fabric, flowers or
feathers, or "what have YOU" Some
are flat and pillow-like, others round
up in modish barrel type, and 9TH
ers-well, you never can tell what
will happen in the guise of a muff
as matters are going this season.
Take out the family album and
copy grandma's favorite jacket-and-
muff and more likely than not it will
be an exact counterpart of the cum
ming "set" pictured to the right in
the accompanying Illustration. This
winsome little ermine jacket is worn
over the new crinoline hoop-skirted
gown such as we of this generation
had heretofore regarded as be-
longing to the daguerreotype age
but now at fashions command we
are accepting it as --latest style"
with high enthusiasm. The jacket
fits prim and snug at the waistline,
is cut away in front and has huge
buttons of the ermine. The ador-
able muff speaks for itself.
The costume to the left affirms
the continued style prestige of the
black-and-white costume theme.
This perfect black-with-white frock
is the sort that will supply you with
the lift of assurance so necessary

Processed Velvet
For Party Frocks

New party clothes for the bust
ness girl are designed as money
savers.
Velvets and crepes are processed
to resist wrinkling, water spots and
perspiration stains, thus trimming
dry cleaners bills. "Date dresses"
and evening frocks are designed for
many occasions.
Many business girls who used to
regard velvet frocks as luxuries
are now choosing them for evening
engagements in the lustrous and
supple or dull mat weaves proc
essed to resist crushing.

Figures on Manure

The production of manure has
been figured out as follows for the
various animals, says the Montreal
Herald: Cow, about 70 pounds daily;
steer, 60 pounds; horse, A pounds;
hog, 9 pounds; sheep, a pounds. Cow
manure contains the largest proper
ton of water-T per cent; sheep
manure the least-64 per cent. Ma
nures from horses, cows and hogs
each contain about 10 pounds of nj
trogen bearing ammonia per ton;
from steers, IL to 10 pounds; sheep,
80 pounds.

Clean Chicken House Pays

Careful attention to routine clean
ing and maintenance jobs will pay
the poultryman big dividends. The
poultry house and equipment should
receive regular cleaning, prefer
ably with solution made from one
pound of I've and six gallons of wa
ter, advises poultryman in the
Portland Oregonian. Apply this solu-
ton to the floor and the lower part
of the wall, and to the poultry equip
ment. Brush it into the cracks and
crevices with an old broom.
