Let's Listen
By Mildred Jovien

Like many another musician
who has won a reputation as a
jazz artist, Irving Ashby, 26-year-
old guitarist who recently replaced
Oscar Moore in King Cole Trio
(NBC, Saturdays, 2:45 p. M,
PST), has had thorough season
ing in "long hair" study. At 16
he won a scholarship to the New
England Conservatory of Music.
Up to that time he had never had
a music lesson in his life.
Ashby went to Roxbury Mem
orial school, Boston, not far from
Sommerville, Mass, where he was
born. When still very young, he

r. E. o. Will l marry soon?
Ans. Probing into the matter l
find that you are deeply in love
with a very nice young man and
wondering if marriage will be the
results of this friendship. 1t seems
that he is also considering matri-
mony and will do doubt ask this
important question in the very
near future.
l. N. Will you please tell me
in what country was it SO very
common for women to dye their
finger nails red that not to do so

lately had been spent as scout
master. Now that he is a member
of the Cole trio, Irving finds lit
tie free time. But golf and art
are hobbies which occupy his at
tention when such free time do
arise.

moved to Hollywood to accept free
lance offers from movie and radio
studios. During this period, he was
associated with the bands of Phil
Moore and Lionel Hampton, among
others.
After three years in the army,
Ashby resumed freelancing and
opened a music school, the West
Lake College of Music. One of
the most popular courses offered
there is a simplified method of
learning guitar, a system which
Ashby himself originated.
Ashby is married to a public
school teacher and is the father of
a four-year-old girl. During re-
cent summers, he taught arts and
crafts in Los Angeles playground

BUY CHICKS

O. Do you think that il will be
profitable TO buy chicks this spring?
II seem to me that feed is too high.
But I find that the old hens do not
seem TO do so good their second year.
Would you advise getting sexed pulIets
or straight run chicks?-Mrs. F. B. r.
Cascade county.
A. The feed egg ratio or the num-
Der of dozen eggs required to pur-
chase 100 pounds of feed is still ia
vorable. If I had the equipment, I
would certainly purchase the reg
ular number of chicks this season.
1t is true that old hens do not lay
so well. When we are trying to save
feed as well as make a profit, I would
suggest culling closely and keeping
no hen W. which shows evidence
of putting on fat or going off pro-
duction for any other reason.
Except in special cases it is cheap
er to purchase straight run chicks.
You pay for a cockerel which you
never see, when you purchase sexed
pullets. Also the excuse that you
do not have brooder space is false.
Because about the time that the
cockerels are removed, is the time
that the floor space for the pullets
should be doubled.

EGGS "A BE WASHED

O. They tell me that eggs should
never be washed. Is this true? 1t is a
great loss if I cannot wash my eggs.
Mrs. E. T. lake county.
A. 1t has always been our recon-
mendation to avoid washing eggs.
Rather, produce them clean. How
ever, a recent bulletin from Cornell
reports that eggs can be washed if
handled exactly according to recent
findings:
l. The eggs must be washed the
day they are gathered, so that the
dirt Oh the eggs has not had an op-
p%ortunity to flavor the eggs.
2. The water must be 100 degrees
temperature. They found that when
they used cooler water, there was
an increase in bacteria count in the
eggs.
3. The eggs must be washed in
running water. That is, the eggs
must not be allowed to sit in water.
If you cannot have tap water then
put the eggs in a seive and pour
water from a tea kettle over them.
Also, while it did not mention it in
the report, for goodness sakes don't
use a cloth over and over again
You are just counting disaster, with
the germ filled material. If you car
not follow these specifications DOM
attempt to wash.
4. Dry the eggs at once. Again
the drying cloth must be clean ano
kept clean.

DUTCH OVEN BROoDER
By HARRIETTE cUSHMAN

O. My aunt built a dutch oven brood
or seven years ago. They used an oil
barrel for stove underneath. She said
there are some things she'd change
on the plan which would work better.
What. I do not know. / know they used
a lot of asbestos paper where il never
said anything about using il. She has
a cement floor over the stones. as they
are hard TO clean. She says it takes
three days to heat up the stones but
then they stay warm without much
fire after that. There should be board
across by the door TO stop the draft
when you open the door.-Mrs. S. T. c..
Treasure county.
A. I am very much interested in
your aunt's dutch oven brooder. Yes,
a great many people do make in
ovations in our plans, and that is
all right, because we just give gen.
eral suggestions.
Her idea of putting a board in the
doorway to stop drafts is also good.
We always recommend this, as young
chicks are very susceptible to drafts,
