surroundings, and a second is
rapidly taking shape.

the same structure overpasses
South Dakota a few feet farther

We've heard of one group that
not only made its picture record
self-supporting project, but even
added little to the treasury with it.
AS soon as you make the first
such pictures, you'll find various
members clamoring for prints.
And they'll be willing to pay a
few cents for them. Since extra
prints from your negatives are in
expensive, you can easily charge
enough for the extra prints to
take care of the expenses of the

The picture taking itself may
even create new interest in the
projects and serve as means of
stirring up enthusiasm among the
people taking part.

YOUR HABITS MAY HARM
HOUSEHOLD EQUIPMENT

Did you realize that your very
habits can harm your modern
kitchen and laundry equipment?
According to Mamie Whisnant,
State College extension specialist
in home management, your
equipment can be handicapped
or even harmed by your old
work habits.
When machines are not prop
erly used, the job will not be so
well done, it will take a greater
expenditure of time and effort
in performing the job, and more
repairs may result from this i'm
proper usage.
Precision is important, for ex-
ample, in using an automatic
washer. Many homemakers over
load their machines and do not
bother to measure the correct
amount of the right kind of de-
tergent. Abuse of the washer will

Of eggs will drop rapidly, Mr.. Vapaa
points out. If you are selling table
eggs on graded basis, a drop in
quality means lower prices. If eggs
are going to consumers Ungraded,
drop in quality brings a decline in
consumer demand.
Nearly every egg produced on the
farm is top quality when laid. All
you have to do to keep them top
quality is: (1) prevent them from
getting dirty in the nest by keeping
the nests supplied with clean, dry
nesting material, keeping the floor
of the laying house clean and dry,
and keeping the birds confined on
wet days so they will not track dirt
in the nests; (2) prevent eggs from
being subject to high temperatures
by penning up broOdy hens so they
cannot sit on the nest, gathering
the eggs two or three times a day
in a wire basket so the air can
circulate and carry off the heat
quickly; and CD store eggs in a
cool damp place and take them to
market often.

apOlized:
Princess always wants to be on
the go once she's saddled and you
ought to see her run in the corral.
It's hard to believe she's so old,
but my father bought her in 1926
at an auction in the Chicago stock
yards. She was five years old"
Dr. Royce Simpson Of the Angel
Memorial Hospital in Boston says
"It's an exceptional age for a horse,
even if it doesn't break any rec
ords." He says horses may live in
to the 4O's. And the way Princess
frisks and canters now, she may
be heading for a record.
