Is fed moistened with hot water and
mixed with table scraps. Many owners
feed both checkers and meal, using the
meal when there are suitable table
scraps.
What do these dry dog foods contain?
From our local Purina distributor we
learned that his Dog Chow Is a COM
bination of meat meal, dried skim milk,
brewers dried yeast, wheat germ, bar
ley malt, soybean oil meal, dried beet
pulp, Ribof1avin supplement, Pura-
tene (carotene), molasses, corn grits,
cereal food, dried raisins, steamed bone
meal, iodized salt, Vitamin A and D
feeding oil. He says that at the Purina
Experimental Farm where it was de-
veloped, twelve successive generations
of dogs have been raised on this ration
alone, and water, with fine results.
Our local distributor says that at
first some dogs may find dry dog foods
not as palatable as the hamburger or
canned dog food they have been used
to, but by Withholding other food and
giving a little personal attention at
feeding time, the owner can quickly
teach the family pet to look forward
to receiving his war ration.

War now has reached out its clutch
ing hands to grasp the pet dog member
of the family, and they squeeze where
it hurts most-his "tummy".
For quite some time, hamburger has
been delicacy with pet dogs-because
of higher beef prices. But Uncle Sam
really put the pet dog in the pleasure
car driver class when he announced
that tin cans must be used for other
and more important uses than canned
dog food.
To the dog and his owner, this may
prove blessing in disguise. During the
emergency many pet dog owners will
turn to dry dog feeds. And they will be
surprised to learn that for years large
kennel owners have been using dry dog
feeds because of their completeness and
economy. These owners like the gloss
mess of coat, brightness of eye, and the
thrifty condition that some Of these dry
dog foods produce.
One prominent dry dog food, known
the country over, comes in both checker
and meal form. Its crunchy checkers
come in two sizes, one for small dogs
and the other for larger ones. The meal

Three Cities Joint Airport

Three Michigan cities-Saginaw,
Bay City and Midland-will cooper
ate in managing a new airport to
be built with federal funds, adding
to the list of more than 40 such
jointly operated airports in the coun-
try.
The airport will be built by army
engineers under supervision of the
Civil Aeronautics authority, at an
initial cost of $527,OO0. Half the
land cost of 100000 is assumed by
Saginaw, which also will pay half
the maintenance charges when the
airport is finished. Bay City will
pay 80 per cent of the maintenance
costs and Midland 20 per cent.
The intercity action dates back to
1910, when the three cities requested
state aid on individual airports. The
joint project was suggested by the
CAA, and each city passed an ordi-
nance under the state enabling act
permitting participation. A three
man commission consisting of the
chief officials of Saginaw, Bay City
and Midland, will operate the air
port and will be responsible directly
to the city councils.

Marine Describes His
First Look at Infnity'

The earth resembles a relief map
from 11k miles in the sky, accord
ing to Lieut.. Col. Chester l.. Ford
ney of the marine corps.
Colonel Fordney, who made trip
into the stratosphere with Com
mander T. G.. w. Settle, navy bal
loonist, in 1888, says that no rivers,
lakes or highways were visible but
that mountains could be distin-
guished.
9"At times we would lose the
image of the earth far below us"
said Colonel Fordney. "Clouds
looked like white carpet with blue
toward the horizon.
"The stratosphere sky is beau
tiful blue as one looks into the space
above. It was so inspiring that I
later described it as my first look
at infinity. 1t was a sight that gave
me my first real conception OF
space"
Colonel Fordney reports that the
radiant energy of the sun is so in
tense in the stratosphere that out
side temperature at the top Of the
balloons gondola, which was paint
ed white, a color that reflects heat,
was exactly zero, while at the bot
tom Of the gondola, which was
painted black a color that absorbs
heat, the temperature reading was
104.5 degrees above zero.
There was no sensation Of motion
in the stratosphere although the in
struments showed the balloon was
rising at speed Of 120 miles an
hour after passing the $4,000 foot
mark, where the stratosphere be-
gins, the marine corps officer stated.
Descent from the peak began as
gas in the balloon cooled and con-
tracted. The balloon dropped from
the $4,000 mark to 800 feet in 40
minutes, or at speed three times
as great as that of modern ex-
press passenger elevator.

Suggestions on How You
Can Tell Good Furniture

There are two types of construc-
tion in furniture, solid and veneer.
Veneer is just as good as solid wood
provided it is five-ply veneer done
under a hot glueing process. Much
furniture is made with three-ply
veneer; it is not satisfactory for it
will separate in time, buckle and
split.
Observe the drawer fronts, table
tops and other important exposed
portions of veneered pieces. If the
granting and patterns are smoothly
matched, it is a sign of high quality
cabinetwork; if carelessly matched,
it is cheap construction and the rest
of the job probably matches the bad
veneering.
Now pull out a drawer, up-end it
and see if the ends have been dove
tailed to the bottom, or nailed. II
nailed, it isn't first grade. Close,
snug-fitted dovetailing is assurance
against the drawer ever coming
apart. Note, too, if the drawer in
teriors are hard or soft wood. Soft
wood will warp and get out of shape
as soon as damp weather comes.
Center drawer glides, as well as
glides at the far sides, are very
important and are to be found in
all good quality case pieces. If there
are side glides only, or none at all,
the drawers will be constant irri-
tation because of sticking and jam
ming in wet weather.

ARMY BUYS Race Horses

Horses which once. thrilled the
crowds at Santa Anita race track
in California, and ponies which thun-
dered across the polo fields have
now joined the army, the war de-
partment announced. Nine horses,
the pick of more than 125 recently
inspected at the Santa Anita track
by the remount division of the
quartermaster corps were pur-
chased for about $700 each and will
be sent to various depots throughout
the country to be used for breeding
purposes. Following the outbreak
of war, horse racing was abandoned
on the West coast, and many own
ers offered to sell their stables to
the war department. The remount
division is planning to purchase
more race horses for breeding pur-
poses.

Dean Advises Workers Be
Given Personality Test

Need for new types Of personality
tests to show why workers are or
are not fitted for certain types Of
employment was pointed out by the
dean of the school Of education,
Pennsylvania State college
"a large proportion Of workers
who are fired from industrial jobs
are well trained and fully able to do
their work, but they have personali-
ty difficulties" Dean Trabue said
recently in speaking before the Ma
tional Vocational Guidance associa-
ton meeting in San Francisco. Nei-
ther interviews nor letters Of recon-
mendation give adequate indications
Of the necessary personality traits,
he explained. The interviewer's own
personality often interferes with an
objective estimate, and different in
reviewers frequently disagree about
the applicants qualifications. SINH
lar objections can be made to rec
concentrations
While a number of good personali-
ty tests have been devised, Dean
Trabue declared that some of these
merely attempt to discover abnor-
malities and complexes rather than
fitness for particular job. Relia-
Bile tests which give more informa-
ton about normal workers In cur
rent industrial occupations would
undoubtedly contribute to greater eff
ficiency In our war effort.
