Stock Prices Advance,
Contrasting New Dip
In Some Commodities
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK. Feb. ga rise in
the stock market contrasted
sharply with fresh break in
some major commodities.
Key stocks showed upward ten
dencies almost Immediately after
the opening bell. Demand slowly
gained momentum until gains
ranged from fractions to more
than a point. A handful of
shares refused to go along. Turn
over was moderately active.
The market apparently was ig-
noring commodity fluctuations
almost entirely. Grains and cot
ton. for instance, started lower.
rallied smartly, and then turned
down again-all without disturb
ing the price pattern in the stock
exchange. Wheat and cotton
later rallied once more and sev-
eral so-called minor commodities
maintained a forward direction.
Farnsworth Television provided
much of the action. The stock
opened around 40 minutes late
when a block of 10000 shares
changed hands at 25s, a decline
of 70 from the previous close here
but shade above the closing price
at San Francisco yesterday. The
loss was later trimmed as Wall
Street awaited word from the
board of international Telephone
& Telegraph Co. regarding a deal
to acquire FarnsWorth.
Issues marked up included ST
Paul Railway preferred, United
States Steel. National Steel. Gen
eral Motors, Chrysler, United
States Rubber. Montgomery Ward,
Boeing. Electric Power & Light,
Kennecott Copper, General Elec-
trio, Dow Chemical, Eastman
Kodak. Radio Corp, International
Paper. Santa Fe, Southern Pacific,
Union Pacific, Nickel Plate, Skelly
Oil, Standard Oil New Jersey
and Paramount Pictures.
Superior Oil of California, a
high-priced issue. rose nearly S
points at one time.
On the losing side were Amer
ican Telephone, Cerro de Pasco,
j. C. Penney and Johns s-Manville.
Corporate bonds moved narrow
ly. United States Governments
were firm in over-the-counter
dealings.

Demonstration On
Floor Finishing

Twenty-three homemakers last
Thursday witnessed a change from an
old to new floor within a few hours
This change, which was as great as
from night to day, took place at the
floor refnishing demonstration held
at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs Darius
Fikc, of Accident. The demonstration
was given by Malcolm Shakleford of
Washington, ID. c., and sponsored by
the University Of Maryland EXten-
sion Service.
The better the haor, the better the
room, the women decided. The APP
pearancc of the floor was a greater
factor in the room than they thought.
The floor rcfnshcd at Fixes was
oak and had been finished with filler,
varnish and wax and was worn and
scratched. During the day each of
the Homemakcrs' club home furnish
ing chairman was taught to use the
sanding machine which was loaned by
Mr.. Shakleford, and also to do each
Of the necessary procedures in floor
rcfinishing.
The floor was sandcd with three
grades Of sandpaper by machine The
women found the machine light and
easy to handle and even easier to
manipulate was the cdger which
removed the finish close to the base
beard.
After sanding a penetrating floor
seal was applied, steel wool buffers
used, the floor waXed and polished
When completed it had the appear
ance of a brand new floor. Because of
the finish used the finish does not
scratch and can be patched in worn
areas without doing over the whole
floor.
The women found that the train
ing was equally helpful for those
with soft wood floors. Miss Eleanor
H. Dearborn, home demonstration
agent, said that similar demon
stration may be held in individual
clubs and will be given by the Home
Furnishings chailmcn who were
trained at this meeting. Details re-
garding the rehnishing are available
at the Home Demonstration Agents

Research Workers Seek
Twin Dairy Calves

The call for identical twin dairy
calves has again been sounded by re-
search workers at the University of
Maryland. A year and a half ago the
dairy department assembled a small
herd of identical twins for use in
Vitamin A research. This time scient-
lists are interested only in heifer
calves which will be used for feeding
and growth studies and later for pro-
duction experiments.
Farmers having Identical twin dairy
calves-that is, calves with exactly
the same color markings, the same
sex, and the same general appearance
are asked to get in touch with the
Dairy Department, University of
Maryland, College Park, Maryland.

of dairying, the scientists say. Only
one birth in about 10000 produces
Identical twins.
Twin calves are useful in expert
mental work because they react in
identical ways to the same treatment.
They gain weight at the same rate,
they use feed with the same efficien-
ey, and they produce the same amount
of milk after freshening. Thus, vari-
atoms in feeding or care are reflected
in changes in production and scient-
lists can learn as much studying one

Why Grow Old?

merely used my own discretion,
which was not always wise.
Il had acquired the notion that
my family wished me to be fat
and were purposely giving me
large portions of food. To make
up for this, in order to achieve
an adequate weight loss, I ate no
lunch on school days and rose
extra early on week ends to make
my own breakfast This break
fast consisted merely of rattling
a few dishes and urging myself
to be deaf to the roaring pangs
of hunger in my stomach.

I walked the 4 miles to summer
school and back. In the after
moons I went for 20-mile bike
rides. I terminated the day with
a half hours strenuous exercise.
whenever I was away from
home I tasted the whole day and
I often closed myself in the bath
room. with steam issuing from the
shower until the hot water ran

given all of this up sooner than I
did. but dieting and becoming
slim had become manias."

of one of my young readers.
