Migration or Workers
 Presenting Problem Trucking Moving Companies Report Unprece- dented Demand for Services - Frank E.
 Hess of Blakeslee Reviews Situation.

The nationwide migration of war workers from ghost towns and the accelerated transition to peacetime production will keep trucking and moving companies busy for an un- limited length of time, Frank E.. Hess, president of the Blakeslee Co.,, predicted yesterday.
 The impetus of migration created by industrial lay-offs in the coun- try's wartime industrial centers has precipitated such a rush in the moving business, MT. Hess report ed, that at least six or seven re- quests must be refused daily. AS far as can be ascertained the num- Der of people currently planning to move in or out of the city does not vary, he said, and up to the present there have been no indica- tions a reduction in Waterbury'S wartime population may be ex- pected.
 Flood Of Orders
 Inability of moving companies to handle the increased volume of business is general throughout the country, MT. Hess said. The Blakeslee company is associated with the Mayflower Moving Co.,, which does long distance moving in every section of the country. A tel egram from that concern informed the local moving firm 1t could not accept any more orders for the month of September, and. further issued instructions that 1t must be advised of any orders taken fol October before acceptance.
 So heavy is the migration from Seattle, Norfolk, and other ship building areas, MT. Hess reported that thousands of families may be forced to wait many months before obtaining the services of movers.
 The biggest problem currently facing the Blakeslee Company is the shortage of manpower. An adver- tisement, published shortly after V-J day considerably frightened dif- faculties when eight men joined the staff of the moving and trucking company. But at least ten more men are currently needed to serve as movers to help meet the increased
 Encouraging Response
 The response of the recent adver- tisement was very encouraging, MT Hess said, since movers or drivers were practically unobtainable dur ing the war years.

Suggestions On Storoqe Of Produce
 Home Gardeners
 Given Advice
 By Specialist

Home gardeners who grew enough vegetables this year to assure their families of supply for winter use, rationing or no rationing, are now interested in methods of storage that will keep their produce in good condition. While temporary methods will suffice for a few weeks. say A. E. Wilkinson, vegetable special ist of the Agricultural Extension Service, University of Connecticut, they are not satisfactory for long periods and are inconvenient to use.
 The gardener who wishes to keep his vegetables well into the winter will need a permanent type of stor- age. The most convenient location for 1t is in the cellar of the home, but since most cellars contain furnace 1t will be necessary to con struct a room in which the temper ature can be kept between 32 and 40 degrees.
 Such a room can be easily con- structed by anyone handy with tools says Prof. Wilkinson. The size can be whatever the gardener wish es to make 1t, but the room should be located so that a cellar window can be used for ventilation and to admit cold aid from outdoors. Con- crete blocks or smiliar materials can be used for construction. If wood Is used, the walls should be double boarded with sheathing pap ed between them. The ceiling should also be insulated so as to prevent a cold floor in the room above.
 A ventilating chute not less than six inches square, usually con- structed of wood, will be necessary. One end of the chute replaces a pane of glass in the cellar window the other end extends down to within a few inches of the floor A sliding damper in the bottom end of the chute permits a control of temperature. By replacing another pane in the cellar window with a hinged door, a constant flow of cold air in to the storage room and of warm air out, is made possible,
 When constructing the storage room, reminds Prof. Wilkinson be sure the door fits tightly. Shelves should be made Of slats to permit free circulation of air around the vegetables. It may be necessary to sprinkle water on the floor from time to time to prevent them from willing and drying. The vegetables can be stored in boxes. one for each kind.
 Construction details for a permo- nent type of vegetable storage room are provided by Prof. Wilkinson in his circular, Storage for Amateur Gardeners" copy of which can be obtained from him upon request or from any of the county agri. cultural agents.

countries exported to the United
States a great majority of the an
CORA rabbit fur used in this coun-
try's clothing industries. CORN
hopes he can do his small share
in building up the domestic market.
Speaks on Radio.
Recently, CORN spoke of his hobby
over Station WWDC in a special
program featuring a campaign by
Phi Delta, national high school
and college sorority, to find new
industries for returning veterans
Mildred Seigel, 20, and Lillian Witt
IT, spokesman for the sorority
thought the public would be in
terested in hearing how CORN raises
his rabbits and plucks their fur for
market. He showed up for the
broadcast with two of his best
rabbits.
Few people realize that rabbits
have very sensitive stomachs," CORN
says. That's why it's so important
that they have a balanced diet OF
pellets and alfalfa, rich in pro-
teins, which gives them their long
white fur. You have to 60 easy
on the greens, though-you wouldn't
give a child too much candy!"
For an added treat, CORN puts q
salt wheel in the rabbits pen.
Rabbits are very sensitive tc
drafts, too, he says. It's best tt
keep them in the fresh air but
when the winter winds start blow.
ing it's wise to build some kind o.
shelter for them. The pens mus
be kept immaculate because the ful
must not be soiled. Rabbits are
likely to catch colds if you battle
them and they keep themselves a!
clean as cats if their living quar-
tiers are kept spic and spon.
Plucking Season.
Being an angora rabbit raise,
CORN knows, of course, all abou
plucking season. Usually rabbit
between l and years old have tn
best fur, he says. An English rabbi
should weigh pounds when frs
plucked CORN says. He make
this distinction because there ar
two types Of angora rabbits. tn
French and the English. His o.
the aforementioned type.
In some places the rabbits ar
sheared for their fur, but shearet
fur brings smaller prices, accordin'
to CORN. 1t takes longer to plucl
out the hairs one by one Will
tweezers but the price is higher
he says The hairs of an anger;
rabbit, CORN found, measure NOR
than 3l4 inches. From one rabbi
he can get about "a ounces of flu
and a pound brings him SIS. Tn
rabbits are plucked every 80 days.
Other Hobbies.
1t seems that CORN has it'll
time for taking care of his studio
at Berwyn Elementary School ant
caring for his rabbits at home, bu
he does both without any trouble
he says. The angoras are easy t.
care for, he thinks, and lots O
fun" And he has plenty of tim,
left to pursue his other hobbies
drawing cartoons and tinkering with
motors.

He found the air cool and lightning
was flashing in the sky. Soon, there
came heavy downpour of rain. In
addition to the suit he wore. Park
had few articles of clean clothing.
These he laid on the sand and when
they were soaked, he wrung them
out, letting the water drip into his
mouth. Thus he was able to quench
thirst.
The rain stopped in about an
hour, but lightning kept flashing in
the sky. BY its light, he studied his
compass while he rode farther east
ward. At daybreak he came upon a
small pond and drank water from it.
Although he was now over his
thirst, Mungo Park had grown weak
from hunger. Seeing a village, he
rode into it, even though he feared
it might belong to Ais kingdom.
Turned From Door.
The village was, indeed, a part Of
the Mohammedan country. Park
knocked at the door of one of the
chief men and asked for food and
shelter. He was turned away. how
ever, because he looked like white
man from a Christian nation.
Making his way to the edge Of the
village, he halted again before a
humble hut. Then he dismounted
and stumbled toward the doorway.
He asked on aged woman for some
thing to eat and this time he was
made welcome.
Much refreshed after a meal, Park
gave the old woman one of his peck
ct handkerchiefs, then went on with
his journey. The next day she
reached a small oasis and there he
met shepherd who gave him water
and a dish of boiled dates.
