The Butterfly World Invodes
Homes With CoIorfuI Results

Although it's a little early
for the real ones, have you
thought of doing anything
with butterflies in your home?
3 Suddenly butterflies seem to
be flying in all directions in
the decorating world and so
real are they that I expect
to see that man with the
white net appearing any mo-
ment.
There Isl nothing more
beautiful than the colors of
a real butterfly. And the,
manufacturers have copied
as nearly as possible the
sometimes delicate, some
times brilliant beauty of this
elusive creature.
I saw blue butterflies, look
ing as if they had just been
dropped on a snow-white
bedspread. Real looking
butterflies fitted on lamp
shades. And butterflies in
almost any color you could
name were trapped on pretty
white curtains. With their
wonderful wings, they are so
decorative it's surprising they
haven't been used more be-
fore this.
Colorful butterflies, en-
bedded in a low white coffee
table, not only add a cheer
full color note to an other
wise dull room but provide a
conversation piece as well.
If. you're tired Of fleur-de-
lis, docume entary prints,
stripes and plaids. why not
capture the butterfly mood
for a change?

Top Production Storts
With Quality Seed
by
DR.. William II. Mitchell

University of Del Agronomist
Much of the grain going into
seed boxes for fall planting is a
little better than livestock feed
Grain box surveys all over the
country indicate farmers persist in
planting seed of lower quality and
poor termination.
The average run OF seed tested
at the Delaware Seed Testing Lab
oratory in Dovr has only 1880
percent termination and from 515
percent inert material such as
sticks, stones and trash. Also there
are often large amounts of noxious
weed seeds such as Johnson grass
and thistle present.
What does this mean to Della
ware farmers? 1t means poor
stands that result in low yields, it
means serious weed threat that

and NO noxious weeds. The price
of this assurance is very low when
you consider all the other costs OF
production.
For example, the total cost OF
growing a bushel of oats is about
$50 cents. Certified seed repre-
sents five to seven cents of this
total. That's cheap when you con-
slider all the advantages.

If the United States imper-
ialists, contrary to common
sense, should fling it into an
other undisguised venture

bles in Laos followed American
efforts to divert that southeast
Asia country from its neutrality

agreement in 1854.
Laos wants to use its ener-

said. The Western powers
should abstain from using Laos
as an area for military in
trigues.
