Gives Hints For
Tidy Housewives
Home Extension Representa-
tive Makes Suggestions
- For Keeping Home Neat
A place for everything and every-
thing in its place is an age old saying.
Many hours and much energy could be
saved each week, if this principle were
put into practice, says Miss E. Nitz-
kowski from Economics Extension Re-
presentative in Luzerne County.
The right kind of closets and cup-
boards arranged for easy and conven.
ient use will help keep order in the
house and save time and energy. Od-
derliness is but a habit. Provide prop-
er places for family possessions and
then get the family in the habit of
using them. Chiildren can hang their
wraps, pack their toys, and thus con-
tribute their part toward orderliness
and helping mother. Life will be eas-
jer for those children who learn such
habits of order and cooperation. It
will teach them self-reliance and con-
trol.
A closet for everyday wraps near the
outside door is very convenient. A
shelf in the top for hats, hooks for
preferably a rod with hangers in tone
section, a low shelf and hooks are es.
sential for the little folks. 8
Each bedroom should have a closet
and drawer space. Beauty has found
its way into the dark recesses of the
clothes closet. The first step toward
beauty is to give the walls, floor, and
ceiling a color. Gay boxes for the
shelf for hats and garment bags or
gay chintz or print add to the appear-
ance and greatly protect the garments.
A rack or bag for shoes keeps them
off the floor, adds to ‘the tideness of
the closet and saves extra handling.
Every well-ordered household should

a White Pine Doors f
have a special closet for cleaning
equipment. A convenient type of clos-
et has a shelf placed about a foot
from the top for cleansing and polish-
ing preparations. In the bottom of
the shelf should be placed hooks for
brooms, mops, brushes and cleaning
cloths. The closet should be high
enough so that brogms and mops
swing clear of the floor. There should
be floor space in the bottom for vac-
uum cleaner, carpet sweeper, and
scrub pail. A shallow closet inclosing
ironing board which lets down from
the wall at the correct heights for
working saves time and energy. A
shelf for iron and wax just below. the
board saves steps in collecting.
Those are but a few suggestions.
The person ‘about the house who is
handy with tools can build with very
little expense many convenient con:
trivances for houséhold equipment
and persanal belongings.

PENNSYLVANIA FISHING
With the discovery of new methods
for rearing black bass in hatchery
™
ponds, expension in hatchery facilities
for vellow perch, brook trout, sunfish,
nows, Pennsylvania fish culture is de-
finitely on the upgrade. An example of
the amazing progress in fish culture
in the Keystone State was the releasc
of over 1,000,000 brook trout, above the
legal size of six inches, during 1931.
The increasing demands for more
fish of legal catching size made it nec-
for the oard of Fish Commis.
sioners to establish a Bureau of Re-
search to overcome the difficulties of
mass production at the hatcheries.
This bureau, established several
vears ago, makes studies of fish cul-
tural problems confronting Pennsyi-
vania hatcheries. The problems stud-
ied have led to a number of radical
changes in hatchery procedure and
more scientific advancement in fish
culture.
Methods of bass propagation have
revolutionized by the Bureau through
the growing of minute animal life
(daphnia) that is readily taken by
bass in the second feeding stage. Suc-
cess in completely
changed methods of bass propagation.
Briefly, it has enabled the holding of
more bass per unit pond area until
time for distribution, increased the
rate of growth, produced a more uni-
this respect has
form growth, and enabled the utiliza.
tion of smaller and more artificially
constructed ponds.
E Fish Food
Resuits obtained in artificially grow-
ing minute animal life and feeding it
te the bass led to its use for
fish food, and thirty Daphnia nursery
sun-
City Hatchery for this purpose. The
use of the natural food particularly for
the very voung fish resulted in doub-
ling the fish per unit pound area for
distribution in the fall ow 1929. Ad-
ditional Daphnia nurseries will probab-
ly be constructed at other hatcheries
in order that this source of food may
be utilized for the small sunfish and
other fish.
‘With a large group of fishermen, the
ccmmon bullhead is a very popular
and much sought after fish. For a
number of years, the Board has been
provagating the distributing them
from three of its hatcheries, although
artificial propagation of the bullhead
in large numbers is a difficult task.
Several experimental ponds have been
constructed at Pleasant Mount Hatch-
ery where it is proposed to feed the
fry for several weeks on a one hun.

dred per cent. Daphnia ration, which
together with the new type of pond,
it, is hoped, will greatly reduce disease
loss. Cannibalism will be more or‘less
controlled by segregating fry from
larger sized fish.
Hatching Suckers
In Pennsylvania the ardent group of
sucker fishermen probably exceeds in
number trout and bass fishermen com-
bined. In recent years suckers became
comparatively scarce and the Board is
endeavoring through artificial propa-
gation and distribution to bring suck-
er areas back to their original con-
dition. Artificial hatching of sucker
eggs was entirely new to fish cultur- -
ists of this State and little or no in-
formation could be obtained from oth.
er sources. Therefore, the bureau of
research was instructed to co-operate
with the superintendent of the Plea-
sant Mount Hatchery in devising the
best means of artificial hatching. Af-
ter experimenting with three different
methods, it was decided that the par
method was mos successful in secur-
ing healthy, vigorous fish.
The hureau of research continues its
work on the control and treatment of
a number of diseases, particularly Xc-
hthyophthirius or white spot, which
frequently affects small bass. This
disease makes its appearance where
fish are held in a crowded condition,
as is necessary at the hatcheries. Of
many measures for its treatment re-
commended and tried out none has
proved entirely effective, although pro.
gress has been made in controlling this
disease by increasing the water circu-’
lation in the bass nursery and brood
ponds.
In efforts to increase production at
hatcheries, much study has been giv-
en to quality of the water used, par-
ticularly for hatching and rearing the
trout. This study was made with the
thought of correcting undesirable con-
ditions, and to use the findings as a
comparative basis in establishing new
sites.
Will Auction Off
School Bus Routes:
At an adjourned meeting on Tuesday
afternoon directors of Dallas township
schools voted to reject all bids re-
cently received on school bus routes
for the coming year.
The this action on the
part of the school board that
many of the bids were on busses cap-
able of carrying fifty students but not
of fifty-foot capacity as specified in
the advertising. The new Ford and
Chevrolet school busses do not meet
this fifty.foot requirement. Bids were
received on this class of transportation
as well as on larger class busses.
In fairness to all bidders the board
rejected the bids because of this ap-
parent misunderstanding among the
bidders and will hold a public auction
on the night of June 15 at 8 o'clock to
auction off the bus routes to the low-
est bidders. At that time bids on new
Ford and Chevrolet busses as well as
other classification will be received,
The routes to be the same as those
specified in the advertising and as
run last year. Further details con-
cerning the routes and bus classifica-
tion will be explained at the gather-
