BETTER EGGS

Ohioans these mornings are eating
better eggs than they ever ate before.
The reason is they are buying more
Government-gr graded eggs than ever
before. During 1910, the Federal
State grading service graded eight
times as many eggs as in 1882, the
first year of the grading service.
Each year the eggs are graded, they
get better and better That's because
grading encourages farmers to en-
ploy methods that produce top quality
eggs to get top prices. This effort to
produce top quality raises the average
for eggs. In that way, consumers
have been helped by grade labels to
get better product than they used
to get.
CARING FOR PAINT BRUSHES
How you care for good paint
brushes after you use them depends
on the type and purpose they are put
to, but the Bureau of Agricultural
Chemistry and Engineering of the De-
pdIIIIlCnI Ol ASINulIulC OllSIo IHCoS
suggestions:
Never allow paint to dry on a
brush. When you stop painting even
for an hour or so, put the brush into
raw linseed oil if it has been used for
an oil paint. Keep brushes that have
been used for fiat finish paints in
kerosene. For vanishing, have spe-
cial brush that is never dipped in
paint, wash it insturpentine after use.
Clean shellac brushes with denatured
alcohol and wash calcimine and white
wash brushes in water and hang them
up to dry with the bristles down.
When there is long time between
painting jobs, many painters hang
their paint brushes in raw linseed oil
in covered containers. The brushes
should actually hang in the oil, so
that the bristles are completely COW
cred but do not touch the bottom of
the can.
Another way to store them is to
wash off the fresh paint in turpentine
or in mineral spirits, then in soap
and water. Then dry the bristles
thoroughly and wrap the brush up in
paper.

THE reverse play diagrammed
L above has shown consistently
good results for US over a period of
years.
The fullback receives the ball,
takes a short lead to the right and
passes it to the wingback who has
made half pivot to his left and
continues around the left side as
fast as he can. This play depends
largely on speed, and everything
has to be done in q precision-like
manner
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1941-10-16

Although this diagram shows an
unbalanced line to the right we use
this same formation from which we
run plays through any spot Of the
line, or throw forward passes.
The principal blocking assign.
ments are on the line Of scrimmage
until the play gets into the open
field. For that reason 1t can readily
be seen that speed and precision are
paramount II this play is to succeed.
