Free range on clean soil and plenty of green feed are essential to good growth. Avoid disturbing pullets or moving them to new quarters in the growing season. The addition of lime to lead-arsen- ate spray for apple trees will prevent arsenical injury when the fruit washed. If abundant fresh water is not available for rinsing, injury from soluble arsenic can be avoided by a lime water rinse. Medicated salts are of no value whatever in protecting livestock against flies, says the U. S, Bureau of Etomology. Some of these salts most of them containing sulphur and com- mon salt have been on the market with the claim that they will protect is stock from flies. Pasture is valuable for hogs but for best results should not be grazed too closely. Put in any one lot only as many hogs as can get abundant feed. Ordinarily an acre will furnish past- ure for 5 to 15 hogs averaging 100 pounds. It is a good plan to have two pastures and alternate them; then they can be grazed fairly close and will still provide good, succulent feed. pasture crops that are allowed to ma- ture do not furnish good feed for hogs. RELIABILITY Economy PERFORMANCE THE NEW FORD TUDOR SEDAN » YOU are buying proved perf ormance when you buy a Ford. You know it has been built for many thousands of miles of satisfactory, economical service. Letters from users in every part of the world show the value of the sound design of the car, good materials and accuracy in manu- facturing. You sense a feeling of sincere pride in the oft-repeated phrase — “Let me tell you what my new Ford did.” Further tribute to the sturdiness, reliability and general all-round per- formance of the new Ford is shown in the repeated and growing pur- chases by government police departments, and by large industrial companies which keep careful day-by-day cost you want or need in a motor car at NEW LOW Roadster . . .

A New York res- taurant lately dismissed all of its old staff of waitresses and now employs . only redheaded girls, 55 in all. The management reports that the service had been greatly improved. Another New Yorker, a manufacturer of specialties, for years has employed only redhaired men and girls, several hundred of them. Red hair is said by scientists to in- dicate a strain of Scandinavian blood. The Scandinavians have been rovers for thousands of years, and have left their strain in the blood of the people of many lands. 1 am inclined to agree with those who maintain that red hair indicates a quick intelligence and a high degree of nervous energy. GAMBLING Two brothers named Dougherty bought for $1 a ticket in a Canadian sweepstakes on the Derby horserace. They won the grand prize of $179,000, went to Canada and collected the money. 1f they are ordinary human beings, their “luck” will probably ruin them. If they have more than the averaze of horse sense, it may be the foundation of a stable fortune. : “Easy come, easy go,” is a rule to which there are 1ew exceptions. I have known many successful gamblers, but only one or two who were able to keep their money after they had won it. One family prominent in New York society owes its foundation to the old Louisiana Lottery. After “clean- ing up” in New Orleans the founder of the family had sense enough to in- vest his winnings in property which has steadily increased in value, and his grandchildren hobnob with the Astors and the Vanderbilts. But for every such instance as that, I could point out a dozen where winning something for nothing has literally ruined men who might have amounted to something if they had to work for every dollar they got. g NAMES The newly-discovered planet will be named Pluto, following the custom of iving classical names, such as Mars, enus, Neptune, Saturn, etc, to the heavenly bodies. That is a more sen- sible system than prevails in most parts of this country in giving names to towns and places. A classical-minded official of New York's early days gave names out of ancient Greece and Rome to the un- settled townships, whence we have such’ cities as Syracuse, Rome, Utica, Troy, Niobe, Ilion, Ithaca, Carthage, Pompey and many others whose names mean nothing whatever in America. The early settlers lacked imagina- tion. Otherwise we would not find in one county in New York the towns of Chatham, North Chatham, East Chat- ham, Chatham Centre and Old Chat- ham. Portland, Oregon, got its name because the two men who founded the settlement tossed a ¢oin to see which Be came from should name it. Boston, the othee from Portland, + Maine, and the Portland man won. And St. Petersburg, Florida, got its name because the man who first settled there was a Russian. PIONEERING More than four-fifths of Alaska is as yet unexplored and unmapped. A group of young American engineers will start soon surveying a highway through the Alaskan wilderness. I talked the other night with a young German nobleman who was about to start for Peru in an airplane, with American engineers, to investigate the practicability of a railroad over the Andes to open up new land for Ger- man colonization. The same day I met an American engineer about to start for Abyssinia, to build a dam there. The world is still full of adventure for those who have the same sort of pioneering spirit which actuated the forefathers of us who live in the United States today. It will be cen- turies before the whole world has been fully explored or even partly settled. WATERWAYS : : There is a revival of interest in the project to connect the Great Lakes with the sea by a ship canal. Some interests want to rake it an inter- national route, using the St. Lawrence River. Others advocate the taking over of the Erie Canal, which connects Buffalo, on Lake Erie, with Albany, on the Hudson River. Army engineers have reported that a 25-foot channel or even a deeper one, all the way from New York to Buffalo, is entirely feasible. The opposition comes mostly from the railroads. The Erie Canal was built | before there were any railroads ; other- wise it never would have been built. It made New York the dominant seaport through which commerce to and from the newly-opened West flowed. CONSTIPATION 4p.

CARTERS IZ: PILLS BOOTH SAYS BEER WILL MEAN SALOONS New York.—One of the strongest opponents of a return of beer and light wines is Commander Evangeline Booth of the Salvation Army who has made it plain that in the experi- ence of her great organization beer drunkenness was more of a curse than any other form of aleoholism. “How ridiculous it is,” she said, “to ask for a return of light wines and beer and say in the same breath that we do not want a return of the sae RE as Lah ao Brighten ¥ our Screens Get Hilo Screen Enamel today.

Under the old law 90 per cent of the intoxicating liquor consumed was wine and beer, and a beer drunkard is a terrible spee- tacle.” ; The more congress studies the pro- posals to modify prohibition to pere mit 2.75 per cent beer, the further away does it get from such modifica- tion. The recent attempt by Repre- sentative Dyer of Missouri to interest President Hoover and his law observ- ance commission in 2:75 per cent beer seems to have failed. A public state- ment by Chairman Wickersham of tha President’s commission on law enforce- ment indicated: that the commission does not believe legalizing 2.75 beer would solve any prohibition problems.’ Experiences in Canada indicate that 2.75 per cent beer is unpopular and a beer with a much heavier alcoholic content is now brewed. In Quebec a very powerful 9 per cent beer is vestigators is responsible for a vast amount of drunkenness, especially among women. [Bren It is understood that few memb of congress who were in public life before prohibition would vote to re- establish the brewers in legal busi- ness. The brewers still hope to modify prohibition as indicated in the state- ment made by one to the New York World, that the brewers would be willing to pay the government $1,250, 000,000 for the privilege of reopening their breweries. ; [First National Bank DALLAS, PA * * * Members American Bankers’ Association * x 2 DIRECTORS R.
