CHARGED WITH HAULING
ROTTEN EGGS

Morris Silver and F. Adolf Bass
Ter, both of Philadelphia, were ar
rested in York, Pa, last week., and
fined $1,000 each on the charge of
hauling more than 40 crates of
rotten, decomposed and decayed''
eggs from Maryland into York Coun-
ty, Pennsylvania. Unable to pay the
fine the men were committed to Jail.
State food agents testified that
1873 crates of rotten eggs found on
the truck driven by the two men
had been purchased in Maryland.
Sales slips showed that the eggs had
been purchased in Jarrettsville, Bel
Air, Frederick, Mount Airy and
Edgeville.
Charges Of violating the Federal
Pure Foods and Drug Act are also
expected to be lodged against the
men, according to federal agents.

HONEY IS NOT THE BEES MAIN
JOB

While farmers are striving to grow
more food, and seed crops for war,
e-keeping-closely connected with
cropping-is going through a bad
time Entomologists of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture point out
that at least SO important crops de-
pend honey bees for pollination,
or yield more abundantly when bees
are plentiful in the vicinity.
Some insects other than bees play
part in plant pollination, but bees
are the most important. In collect
ing their food-nectar and pollen
from fowers-the bees transfer the
pollen on their legs and bodies from
one blossom to another, and bring
about the necessary fertilization

China Learns to Sing

The Chinese are beginning to sing
in harmony and already full-length
opera in the native language has
been produced before record-break-
ing audiences in Chungking. One Of
the most inspiring sights in free
China of today, according to reports,
is to see thousands Of people join In
the mass singing Of patriotic melo-
dies. This is spectacle never seen
before in China and unheard Of until
six years ago. It is not confined to
schools and colleges but has spread
to the common people, to the refu-

BOYS AND GIRLS WANTED. Join the Vic
tory Farm Volunteers branch of your High
School Victory Corps. If you have the physi-
cal qualifications you can help win the war
with food. See your school authorities.
YooD WANTED. If you can't go to the
farm, bring the farm to your own back yard
with Victory Garden.
If all of us, who can, do these things, we
shall help to solve one part of the farm prob
lem At least we can make sure that none of
the vegetables we need will rot in the fields.
But experts warn that this is only partial
solution of one angle of the farm problem.
The problem is far bigger than that:
If America is to raise the food that we must
have to win the war in the quickest possible
time, farmers must be given within the limits
of our total war program) an adequate supply
of skilled labor.
They must be given fertilizer to produce
abundant yields.
They must be given machinery to work
their crops.
They must be given sufficient gasoline and
tires to run that machinery and to haul the
produce to market.
We as individuals cannot solve those prob
lems That is up to the President and Con-
gress. But we can insist that all possible con-
structive action be taken without delay. And
we can see to it that our important vegetable
cror,s are not lost for want of harvest hands

warned me. 'It's no use trying to sell farm
work on glamor. It's healthy, but it's also
downright hard work. We aren't asking peo-
pie to do it for the fun of it, They'll all get
paid whatever they're worth. And they'll
have the satisfaction of knowing they are
doing a real war job But no farmer wants
them unless they know it is job - not
vacation"
Meantime the government, now aroused
to the danger of unnamed farms, is taking
other steps. The deferment policy has been
changed so that few essential farm workers
are now being drafted. And though the Army,
as write this, is still holding out against
furloughing of individual soldiers to return to
the FARMS soldiers were being detailed in
groups to meet harvesting emergencies Spe-
cial arrangements have permitted the
movement of Mexican farm workers into
the country. And there has even been
talk of putting prisoners of war to work
on the farms.
Whatever the success of all these moves,
the need for Victory Gardens - gardens that
are not only planted but tended with the
care that will assure real success - is obvi-
GUS. For food is a weapon, and no matter
how much we may finally grow this year. it
still won't be enough.
I'm war like this one,' high military
authority told me, ''the amount of food that
we could use to military advantage is vir-
tually unlimited"

experience - but want to help - here are

In fertilizer materials, as in metals for
machinery and in men, the farmers must COM
pete with the Army, for fertilizer ingredients
are also essential in the manufacture of ex-
plosives. And even the gasoline and tires
which farmers must have for their tractors
and trucks are strictly rationed.

him to run record race on a track of sticky

He must have help. That is obvious. Can

The Land Army
MODERN farming requires skilled workers
- particularly such specialized types of
farming as dairying and livestock.
On the other hand, much farm work - like
the picking of our vegetable crops - is sea-
sonal, and requires less skill and training.
In normal year, farmers in this country en-
ploy about three million more people in peak
seasons than during the rest of the year. These
are harvest workers mostly. But this year,
most of the three million are already doing
something else. That is where lot of Us
could come into the picture. l would prob
ably be clumsy and slow at picking tomatoes,
but I'm sure would be more help to Henry
Beck than nobody at all.

farms in the southern part of the state. They
already knew how to milk cows, and an in
tensive short course at the state agricultural
college gave them beginning on the finer
points of dairy husbandry. The farmers who
got those workers consider themselves ex-
tremely lucky.

emergency farm army is expected to be
recruited from towns and cities for sea-
sonal work. In 95 mobile camps, which fol-
low the crops from area to area, vacationing
youths and others who sign up for summer
on the farms, will be stationed. Some camps
will operate in the winter, too, moving to the
areas where the winter citrus and vegetable
crops are to be harvested.
Then there will be the emergency workers
people who will help out during vacation
periods Last year, in a number of communi-
ties, crops were saved by just such emergency
harvesters.
It's far from the ideal way to get farm work
done - even the simplest of all farming, the
raising of truck produce - but in a pinch
any hands are better than none. This year
much of this emergency work will be organ

Women's Arti6ciality Out
As Natural Charm Enters

Do women dress to please men or
to please themselves? Whichever It
is, women are as dainty and attrac-
tive with their men off to fighting
fronts as they were in days Of peace.
Cleanliness, good grooming. and a
nice appearance are too much part
Of the modern woman's way Of life
to be put aside during the stress of
war. Wartime, in fact, appears to
put emphasis on careful grooming.
Women seem to be preparing them
selves for the day when artificial
glamour aids may be less avail
able. Makeup is toned down, nail
polish is less startling. and on the
whole beauty is leaning toward the
natural charms Of a good complex
ion, well-brushed hair, and well-kept
nails and hands.
Simplicity Of dress is another
mark Of the war era. Probably the
freezing Of styles to conserve fabrics
has much to do with this, and also
the wearing Of uniforms by an in
creasing number Of women In war
Jobs.

Tents Made Weather Resistant

Army tents, tarpaulins, and truck
covers now are made fire, weather,
and water resistant by the applica-
ton of an improved protective film
based on resin plastics. The plastic
component is blended with the COM
pounds designed to guard against
weathering and storage deterioration
and the entire preservative surface
is laid on in one operation. The new
plastic element, composed of ordi-
nary pine pitch and phenol formal
dehyde resins, is cheaper and more
effective than the chlorinated rubber
previously used for the same pur-
pose. 1t is estimated that approx
mately 10 million pounds will be used
ON army tentaRe during 1913.

PhenOthiazine Kills COckrOaches

Cockroaches can swallow pheno-
thiazine without harm, but If this
chemical touches the outside of their
bodies it kills the pests. The pheno-
thiazine passes through the shells Of
the reaches, and is apparently con-
verted into another compound which
really does the killing. John W..
Zukel of Iowa State college, Ames,
says that the finer the particles of
phenothiazine, the smaller the size
of the deadly dose needed. Chem
lists state that phenothiazine, while
under test as an insecticide for some
time, has found its most successful
use as a killer Of certain parasitic
worms of livestock and Of cecal
worms in poultry. And, busted on
chickens, it has been found to give
almost complete control of lice.

Suggests Bowlers Display
War Work Profession

Here, bowlers, is a pretty good
idea-one that will allow you to iden-
tify yourself with the work you're
doing to help Uncle Sam bowl those
strikes against the Axis.
Thousands of you fellows-and
girls, too-in all parts of the coum-
try are engaged in vital war pro-
duction work. Many Of you would
like to join up and take a personal
crack at Hitler and his stooges, but
age, dependents and the importance
of your work in many cases makes
it imperative that you fight on the
home front.
So, why not get a uniform-or bet
ter, some identifying emblem on
your bowling shirt or uniform that
will tell the world the specific kind
of war production work you are en-
gagged in.
For example, suppose you work
for a giant airplane producing plant.
Your insignia on your bowling shirt
or uniform would be pair of wings.
II the various departments of this
plane company have their own
leagues, you can identify the de-
partment you work in-whether you
build motors, wings, struts, fuse
lagos, etc.
II you are engaged in tank pro-
duction, your emblem is a tank. II
you make shells, that's your identi-
tying symbol, and so on for guns,
ships, jeeps, or whatever you help
produce to make the world safe for
the American way.
