Old Farmer’s Riddle: What turns without stirring? (Answer
below.)
Ask the Old Fanner: Can you
tell me why it is that horse
back riders of the East and
Europe manage to get along
with a minimum of trap
pings, while our Western
riders and their horses are
encumbered by heavy bulky
accouterments ?8.L., Spring
field, 111.
Almost every detail of the Westerner’s riding outfit has a
practical use high boot heels so his foot won’t slide through
the stirrup; hoods or “tapederos” on the stirrups to keep his
boots from being tom by briars and to keep his feet from
freezing in cold weather; chaps for warmth and protection,
and so-on. The only thing that is strictly decorative that we
know of are the conchas or metal discs on some of the gear.
Horn# HinU: Mosquitos like wet clothes and the color blue . . . Vineffar
set in an open dish absorbs odor of smoke . . . Riddle answer Milk.

Rug Buying
The cost of a rug or carpet
depends on the basic fiber con
tent, amount of surface yarn,
style and method of construction.
Choose the best quality carpet or
rug that your budget will allow,
advise Extension home fur
nishings specialists at The
Pennsylvania State University. A
densely packed pile will look
better and give longer wear than
one with sparse surface pile of
the same fiber.
