Aol -3 Pte t p70 9 ve © YN 17 90 9? 090 Gi WEDNESDAY, DEC. 14, OWL-LAFFS 1927 There was a big fire at the suage factory at Akron, Ohio, last week. That's one time a fellow could truthfully and meaningly say, “Hot Dog.” A colored lady came to our office and told us to put this ad in our classified column: “Colored Widow with one child, needs washing badly.” I asked her why she didn’t try dry cleaning and she got peeved and walked out. I knew a fellow who played cards the other night until 3 A. M. and then complained to his wife of overwork, Don Bishop Friday and him on you be so kind resses’ home?” was at Harrisburg a stage lady, stopping the street said—‘“Would as to help the acts Don said—‘‘Sure, live?” where do you Claud Zeller says he saw an Am- Fericen girl kiss a fellows right { hand because he killed a Hun with | it, Bysshe Heilig said if that would | have been him he’d have told her { he bit a Hun to death. This was overhead in Chandler’s drug store recently. A little girl ab- | out five years old entered and tim- | idly asked to buy a “bottle of oil.” i The clerk, wishing to be specific, | asked—“What kind of oil do you ' want, oil that you put in sewing. ' machines?” The little girl replied, “No sir, the kind you put in babies.” | Anna wrapped up a small bottle of | castor oil, Some of the young fellows down ‘at Smith’s restaurant were telling of how hard they were. One said— “I'm so hard I take my bath in a { Spring.” Another said—“You dirty bum, you should wash oftener than once a year.” there's a fel- way who wears sevens feel so his feet that he Jim Dillinger says low living out his size six shoes but much better on buys eights. A young man near town by the; name of Ben and a lady by the name of Anna were recently mar- ried. If they should be blessed with a baby would it necessarily be a Ben-Anna? Maybe that ain’t a hot one. They couldn’t truthfully sing, “Yes We Have No Ben-Annas.” thinks a cootie is than a bed-bug with Roy Sheetz nothing more A chap from Salunga (one of those real smart guys) called to see me yesterday.

When I asked him if he knew who was in the hospital he said—*Sick people, of course.” “Skinny’’ Brandt down on Mount Joy street, says he knows a dern good story about an oyster but he never tells it because its too raw. I asked one of our doctors if he can remember of any big men who were born in Mount Joy and he said—“Nope. They're only babies born here as far as I can remem- ber.” A lady went down to Newcomer's and bought a cuspidor for her dog. of a dog have you?” She said—“A | Spitz.” About the funniest thing I heard in a long time was a fellow balling said—“Why your ears are so darn big, you were seven years old be- fore your parents knew if you were going to fly or walk.” When two fellows get mud it gets pretty dirty.

A WISE OWL etl I Eggs From New York State “The Bureau is making a camp- aign throughout the State to en- force the provisions of this law and prevent the unlawful sale of such eggs,” Dr. Kellog states. ‘Large quantities of cold storage eggs have been coming into Pennsylvania from New York State and other states which are not marked ‘Cold | Storage Eggs.” These goods in many | cases are received by jobbers who! put them out in dozen lots packed | in special cartons without any markings to show that they are cold storage eggs as required, thus making the retailer liable under | the law when sales of such ema | are made. These jobbers knowing that they are receiving cold storage eggs are also morally responsible for prosecution when they re-pack such eggs in packages not properly marked and fail to notify the re- Earl Myers said—*“Lady; what kind tailer of the quality of such eggs.

A noble thing you can do! ————— Aer COLD STORAGE EGGS MUST BE STAMPED The Cold Storage law in Pennsyl- vania specifically requires that all eggs received from cold storage warehouses and offered for sale be stamped and labeled “Cold Storage Eggs.” Several prosecutions have been ordered during the past week for the sale of cold storage eggs not stamped as required and in some cases where such eggs were sold as fresh. The retail dealers are warned by Dr, James W. Kellog, director, Bureau of Foods and Chemistry, Pennsylvania Depart- ment of Agriculture, that if they sell cold storage goods without proper markings they are liable for prosecutions and fines.

Willian B. Greeley, chief of the Forest Service, United States De- partment of Agriculture, in his an- nual report issued today. The great flood disasters which occurred this year have called into question the adequacy of our public program of forestry, Colonel Gree- ley declares, While the main re- liance for the control of destruc- tive floods must be placed upon engineering works, the ment or extension of forest cover is an essential supplement, and must be taken into account in any far-sighted program for flood pre- vention. Forests aid in the regula- tion of streams by holding the soil watersheds of the innumerable not prevent floods, but can reduce them. They retard snow. They retard surface run-off both directly and through the greater porosity of the underlying soil which they maintain. They retard erosion and reduce the silt burden of streams. Their relative influence in these respects may be greater or less in comparison with the many other factors which af- fect the regimen of streams. It can not be seperated and measured in exact quantitative terms. Never- theless it is an influence which should be brought into play in the progressive betterment of condi- tions which contribute to destruct- ive floods.” Pointing out the needs in applying situation, the obvious | most forestry to the Chief { flood Forester | says: “A need will for the undoubtly Clarke-McNary law in the mountainous drainage where the natural balance between graphy, soil and cover is easily up- appear topo- set and surface cond ions aug- | flood discharges are easily | brought about by destructive lum- bering, forest fires, or temporary and shifting agriculture. Need will undoubtly also inten- sifying the protection of forests from fire on critical drainages of the Mississippi through enlaregd cooperation between the States and Federal Government under the Clarke-McNary Act. Forest plant- ing should undoubtly be promoted aggressively on abandoned or erod- ing farm lands and denuded for- est lands run- appear for where erosion and off are now serious.” National leadership and the need for national action should be fully organized, Colonel Greeley declares, but the fullest measure of cooperation with the States and landowners immediately concerned should be secured. “To sum up the Forester concludes, ‘behavior of our great rivers and the plans projected for their control can not be separated from the use of land. Behind the great floods in the lower Mississippi lie 800,000,- 000 acres of land--farms, pasture, ranges and forests. The conserva- tion and productive use of this part of the soil of the United Sates fully justify on its own ac- count all of the foresight and Nat- ional and State action that can be brought to bear.
