looks rather than wear. A one
thread hose is a pure luxury" it is not
guaranteed to survive even one wearing.
However, a three-thread hose in a high
guage knit looks just about as sheer as
a tWo-thread and gives much more
wear.
The medium weight of stocking called
semi-service usually means 4 Or
thread weight. The business girl will
enjoy this for general wear. The
heaviest and also the most serviceable
silk stockings are naturally called
service" hose. They are for street,
sport and every day wear, and they
range from to II threads.
Now a tip about knit: A high guage
knit in sheer hose looks and wears bet
ter than low guage because it is more
elastic, last longer and fits better The
finer knit SnagS less easily-that means
fewer runs. The dull finished stock
ings, which usually sell as crepe"
stockings wear better and snag less
because they have such tightly twisted
threads
Some hosiery manufacturers have
given thought to the tall, the short, the
plump and the thin wearer. Hose may
be bought in long and short lengths
OutSizeS are blessing for the plump
lady because they are large from the
ankle up and are very elastic at the
top. Very thin women find the best

HOSPITALIZE
BROODY HENS.

Broody hens are just wasting time in
these days of modern incubation and
brooding. We might as well recognize
it and take steps to bring such hens to
time. Not that I would recommend
punishment in the way of solitary con-
finement with starvation or harsh
measures of that sort. Broody hens
that are to be kept are really hospital
cases and must be treated with con-
sideration if they are to accomplish
what you really want, which is a quick
return to egg laying. Most important
of all is to confine the birds as soon
as the malady appears and they will be
cured much more quickly. Go through
the nests each night for prospective
patients. A few days of care with good
food will do wonders. Diet for such
cases should be equal to the best that
you give your best layers-dry mash
all the time and milk to drink Scratch
feed may well be used sparingly.
A private room for each patient is
not necessary, but it is a good idea to
supply series of rooms so that hens
entering the hospital at the same time
may be confined together. Cool, airy
quarters are especially important.
Broody coops placed up from the floor
with Slated Or netting bottoms and
sides furnish ideal conditions.
Each night when birds which have re-
covered are released, the rest can be
moved forward to make room for new
patients.
Most of us would prefer to do away
with the broody coop altogether, and
that can be done in time if you are
Matching eggs from your own flock
Try banding every bird each time she
goes broody. Leave out of the breeding
pen each spring those that wear the
most rings. Eventually, broody hens
will be very few.

The postmaster gaped at the empty

He made dash into the postoffice-
but the money was not there. As he
turned around the corner he noticed
men all over the street picking up $40
bills. The group of men had been
standing along aside the bank structure
when they noticed what they thought
were soap certificates blowing from
around the corner. Out of curiosity
Patse Sewoni picked up one of the
certificates" When he announced it

RECLAIMING
OLD CHAIRS.

Padded chair seats and slip backs add
considerably to the comfort and at
Effectiveness of hard seated and other
wise unattractive small chairs. An old
discarded chair may be brought back
into service as a bedroom or breakfast
room chair by doing over the frame and
adding well made, comfortable pads to
the seat.
If the lines of a chair are good,
padded seat or boxed cushion may be
all that is necessary. But if the lines
are not good or the chair has been
broken and imperfectly mended, or if
it has any missing pieces, try a slip seat
cover with long valance and a slip
back cover to match, thus hiding most
of the framework. Choose the cover
materials for texture and suitability as
well as serviceability and plan the colors
to high note the color scheme of the
room in which they are used.

LeghOrn Plays Joke
On Easter Bunnies

Ortonville- "Nothin' but the best for
Easter" was probably the cackle of a
hybrid leghorn hen owned by L. M
Zahrbock of Odessa when the hen
layed an egg that would make turkeys
turn green with envy. Perhaps the hen
had reason for laying the sensational
egg at the pre-easter psychological
moment. She might have wanted to
disprove one and for all the myth that
has always associated Dummies with eggs.
The unusual egg, weighing 81 ounces,
measured seven and one-half inches
from end to end and is six and one
fourth inches around. zahrbock is
proud of the Leghorn and if she con-
tinues the good work, she need never
fear the axe.

HOSIERY TIPS FOR
FEMININE BUYERS.

1t is about time to be thinking of your
supply of spring hose. Silk stockings
come in so many different weights,
weaves, colors and prices that it's a
problem to make a good buy.
Here are a few pointers: Weight has
much to do with wear and, in general,
hose sell in three weights-sheer, semi
service and service. The number of
single threads that go to make up each
yarn in the weave of the stocking de-
cides the wear. Hose with l to 3
threads are called sheer or chiffon

Kept Secret; Nations
Worried

Berlin, Aug. 15.-(AP)-Adolf Hit
Ter looked on today as reserve forces
of re-armed Germany started extern
sive war maneuvers that are to blan-
ket virtually every part of the nation.
Hitlers personal attendance was dis
closed in an announcement which said
he witnessed a military display at
Juterbog, one of Germany's largest
military training grounds, 40 miles
miles south of Berlin. No details of
his visit or the maneuvers were made
known.
Juterbog is noted, however, espe-
cially as training camp for reserve
officers such as will direct the first
two weeks Of the autumn war games
for the instruction of German army
reserves, keeping them up to date
with new tactics and weapons.
Putting the nation on virtual war
time footing, the maneuvers apparent
ly were a demonstration of the speed
of motorized army transport. AL
though other countries, notably Bri-
tain and France, gave evidence of
grave concern at the magnitude of the
maneuvers, an effort was made here
to calm what were termed as ."exag-
gerating and disturbing reports"
Preparations for the two weeks OF
reserve training were noted chiefly in
southern Germany, close to Czecho-
| slovakia and southern France, but
thew extended also to districts around
the capital.

Jap Advance
On Yangtze
Is Negligible
Little Progress Made
in Three Weeks, De-
spite Their Desperate
Attacking

Shanghai, Aug. 5-(AP)-A sur
vey of the Yangtze front showed to-
day that Japanese gains have been
almost negligible since the capture of
Kiukiang July 26, despite bitter fight
ing on both sidesS of the river, and
heavy aerial commandments.
A Japanese column which struck
southwark from Kiakiang along the
Nanchang railway 20 days ago has
advanced only II niles, and is now en-
gagged with strongly entrenched Chi
nese troops in the hills near Shake
chen.
Another Japanese force operating
south Of the Yangtze has advanced
25 miles from Kiuliang, but is meet
ing desperate resistance. Japanese
army reports said the fall of Juichang
was imminent. but military observers
pointed out that the capture of the
town still would leave the invaders a
difficult advance of IS miles to their
goal, the Canton-Hankow railway
which they hop to cut south of the
provisional capital
II On the north bank of the river, the
japanese have spent the past twelve
days fighting off repeated Chinese
counter attacks without advancing to-
ward Hankow. Latest Chinese dis
patches from the front said Hwang-
mel, 20 miles northsof Kiukiang, had
changed hands twice, and that heavy
fighting was in progress there.

PWA To Put Quo tas On Loans
ToGet Fairer Distributions
Some Estates
Getting Over
Their Share

Washington, Aug. 15.-(AF)- The
Public Works Administration soon
will slap a state quota on loans and
grants in an effort to equalize par
ticipation IN It's 1888 construction pro-
gram Officials said today this was
decided by Howard Gray, acting adj
ministrator, when a recapitulatlon
disclosed that the program was Is
days ahead of schedule, it's funds two
thirds gone and a relatively large
number of states still backward in
qualifying for projects.
The quota system, infOrmants said,
will be aimed chiefly at slowing dwoti
allotments to states which have been
exceptionally active until the more
backward ones have had opportunity
to file a fair share of applications.
Gray and Administrator Ickes, they
explained, will be sole judges of a
states fair share of PWA allotments.
Their decision will be based on the
individual state population, taxes pald
and it's nominal position in Federal
programs.
While authorities declined to in
dictate which states may have reached
or are approaching their quotas. a
survey showed that numerous and
large allotments have been made to
New York, Ohio, California and other
states of heavy population.
Officials said the quota would DC
informal and flexible. They added
however, that if the states which the
quota system is intended to benefit
did not respond by mid-October, al
remaining funds would be pro-rated to
those with application spending.
