A Little Arithmetic May
Take Flock Out of the Red.

This is the time of year when poultry
raising is a matter of addition and
subtraction If you receipts don't add
up to profit over feed cost, it is time
to subtract some hens from the flock.
Such a practice would result in no
flock at all according to complaints
that come in pretty regularly from
those who say there is no money in
chickens at present prices. I might
listen more sympathetically to those
complaints if it weren't for records of
flock owners.
A group of IS Minnesota records that
just came in-13 of the best records for
March-show that the feed for 400
hens, 5000 chicks and 48O young stock
cost $475. The eggs laid brought in
1896. True, they were laying from 18
to % eggs per hen in March. But take
the case of flock that laid only 43
eggs per hen for that same month.
The SIS worth of eggs laid did not pay
for the feed, which cost $25.
Perhaps the flock was aC fault, per-
haps the flock owners, but in either
case there were hens that were not
laying enough to pay for their share of
feed. A little timely subtraction would
take the flock out of the red.-Cora

CPRING blossoms are an invita-.
- ton to any camera owner, for
their delicacy and freshness give
them a natural appeal as picture
subjects. However, to take really
good blossom pictures, there are
several rules you must observe.
The first rule is: get close. Don't
stand away back, and picture a
whole tree or a whole orchard in
every shot. Take one or two gen.
eral shots-then move in for close
ups of the blooms. If yours is a fixed
focus camera, or one with limited
focusing range, use a portrait at
tachment on the lens-this will en-
able you to get even closer.
If you have access to camera
Of the double extension bellows
type, use that for blossom pictures.
With such camera, you can shoot
blossoms in their actual size-fill-
ing the film with two or three
blooms.
Choose blossoms that are prop
erly lighted, so that the contrast of
sunshine and shadow emphasizes
the form Of the subject. Don't let

color sway you, unless you are u.s.
ing full-color film. For black-and-
white shots, especially of pink bios.
SONS, a fine-grain panchromatio
film Is best.
If you shoot a group of blossoms
outlined against blue sky-and
this is very good type of blossom
picture-slip a color filter on the
camera lens. The filter will darken
the sky, making the blossoms stand
out fresh and white. To obtain a
deep-toned sky, use a deep yellow
G filter. For lighter sky tone, a
medium yellow K-2 filter is the one
to choose.
Blossoms make an excellent set
ting for pictures Of people-infor.
mal-portrait snapshots with fresh,
springtime quality. Make a collec.
ton Of such shots during blossom
time, showing members of the fam.
lily visiting an orchard, admiring the
blooms, and shifting their fragrance.

College May be Approved
as Student Agitation Base
Governments Big Preparedness
Program Opportunity for
Local Young Men.

In view of the big preparedness pro-
gram that has come before congress,
it is believed that the Ely Junior Col
lege will have very good chance OF
being approved as a student aviation
base.
Similar bases have been established
at Virginia. Hibbing, and Duluth for
the training of pilots at government
expense. Many colleges and universe
ties throughout the country have flight
schools. Upon graduation students are
eligible to apply for a pilots license.
D. A. Richard, Minneapolis, in charge
of private flying division, National Avi-
alton Authority, Void Chamberlain
Field, has been contacted by Sigurd F
Olson, dean Of the college, concerning
establishing base here. Elys airport
could meet qualifications with only a
minimum amount of improvement.
Student pilots receive instruction in
navigation and meteOrology as well as
in flying and ground school work. The
government exercises strict supervision
of flying instructors and planes used
for teaching.

Thieves Stole Tires
Can NOlU Haze Trailer

Granite Falls-If the thieves who took
the tires from the four-wheel trailer
belonging to Theodore Anderson, living
east of the school house, will only come
back now they can have the trailer too
This is a message originally conveyed
by Mr.. Anderson, himself. The thieves
hauled the trailer out on the road near
the Hallet gravel washing plant and
then stole the tires from the vehicle
In case the thieves are interested, the
Anderson trailer, minus the tires, is
back at it's old stand.

cavern.
