Good Light Needed
For Sewing Comfort
Good lighting may be a prob
lem without recognizing it. The
convenience of electric lighting
is accepted but not enough im
portance is placed on the comfort
that comes from good lighting.
Light from an electric bulb
can be harsh. It needs to be soft
ened by a shade and a diffusing
bowl or shield. It needs to be
controlled so it doesn’t glare.
Light can be absorbed and light
can be reflected. Dark colored
walls absorb light and cut down
the amount available for “seeing”
jobs. Light colored walls reflect
and make the light in the room
more useful.
Colored lampo’tades absorb
light. A colored lampshade is ac
ceptable if it has a white lining
to reflect light A lampshade may
lie made of thin material and the
outline of the bulb shows through
making an uncomfortable glare
The size and shape of a lamp
a fleet the amount of useful light
fiom it. Height needs to allow lor
a spread of light over the work
being done Width of the shade
across the bottom controls the
area covered by light.
Look for a lamp that has the
elements of good lighting. This
requires careful shopping. When
you combine the requirements of
good lighting with the desire for
a well-designed lamp, pleasing in
appearance, the problem of select
ing a lamp is even more difficult.

DAIRY COWS NEED
DAILY EXERCISE
October is a good time to start
thinking about things that can be
clone during the winter months,
lo help maintain efficient milk
production. One would be to pro
vide a good place for cows to ex
ercise each day during he stab
],ng season
A cow, like any other animal,
reeds exercise m order to stay in
good health. She cannot work at
top efficiency if she is stanchion
ed all day long, seven months of
the year Just fifteen minutes in
the exercise lot, twice each day,
will provide the exercise the cow
needs
Start the exercise periods as
soon as cows are brought into the
barn Continue it every day un
til pasture season Weather con
ditions seldom get too bad if the
cows become accustomed to being
out.
PROTECT BLOOMING
TrtCMS FROM FROST
It’s a shame to end the fall’s
bloom in the garden just because
oi an ordinary fall frost, when it
need’t happen Fall mums with
stand cold temperatures very
well, but frost will damage open
Mooms
To prevent frost damage get old
bin lap sacks to cover all the mum
plants Any similar material will
do Gently place the material
over the plants to be protected
belore dark. If there is a frost,
it may form on the burlap, but
won’t harm the fowers Don’t re
move the cover in the morning
until frost has melted
