Here is a practical idea which is
at the same time devastatingly chic
—It Is, as you see, an ensemble con-
sisting of skirt, blouse and jacket.
Make it up of black satin and wear
tt on warm days without the jacket.
The contrasting bodice frill and col-
lar are delightfully fresh looking
and becoming. The trim linked
Jacket Is a stunning addition, and
the whole smart affair goes with the
best possible grace under a top coat.
Of course it would be a very nice
tiling in wool, as well.
Pattern 1943 is available in sizes
12, 14, 16, 18 and 20. Size 16 takes
8% yards 39-inch fabric and 1%
yards contrasting. Illustrated step-
fey-step sewing instructions in-
clude!.
Ser d FIFTEEN CENTS (15c) In
coins or stamps (coins preferred) for
this pattern. Write plainly name,
address, style number. BE SURE
fTO STATE SIZE.

Nice Lump Sum
The President at Work
Free Tombstone
Button-Pushing Days
Congress will give President Roose-
velt a lump sum, a considerable lump
of four thousand million dollars, to let
him change from the system of doles
and imitation jobs, "picking up leaves
and pieces of paper," to real jobs and
useful work.
In his new White House offices,
President Roosevelt is at work on a
"social security program," which will
include unemployment insurance and
old age pensions. The idea is to let
pay rolls contribute to the cost of in-
surance and pensions. Thjs might
work well with normal pay rolls.
You hope that the President, in his
wisdom, will include in any "security"
program security for the nation, in ad-
dition to security for individuals, old
or out of a job.
Unemployment insurance and old age
pensions would do little good if a few
thousand planes came flying from Eu-
rope or Asia to bomb our cities and
spray them with poison gas. If they
came now, they could do exactly as
they pleased. We have no way of in-
terfering with them.
Bruno Hauptmann's musings on
fate's vagaries were interrupted the
other day by a strange offer from Mr.
Standlsh Hartman, who owns the old
Flemington stone works, manufactur-
ing tombstones, just opposite the
Hauptmann Jail.
Hauptmann was told, "If you are
sent to the electric chair I will let you
pick out your own tombstone, free,
and help you write the epitaph. I will
make it a work of art that people will
go a long way to see, one that any man
would be proud to have."
It should take genius to devise a
tombstone that "any man would be
proud to have" if he got it after being
executed for murder.
A day is coming when no man will
do any work harder than pressing a
button, and science, incidentally, will
make crime obsolete.
For instance, the Joliet (111.) jailer
sent a fat "trusty" outdoors for a
eigar, and the automatic "electric eye"
at the gate saw him, flashed a light
and the innocent fat "trusty" was
searched. A small metal shoehorn was
found in his big loose shoe.
The electric eye flashes when any-
body passing the gate has any sort of
metal in his possession. No prisoner's
friend hereafter can take In a pistol,
file or steel saw.
If you buy alcoholic drinks, buy from
dealers in whom you have confidence.
The federal government has seized one
million one hundred thousand empty
whisky, wine and liquor bottles to pre-
vent bootleggers refilling them with
bootleg supplies.
An empty whisky bottle, bought for
two cents, filled with eight cents' worth
of bootleg whisky, may mean profit for
the bootlegger and mean poison for the
consumer. Buy from a retailer whom
you trust, who buys from those who
manufacture legally, and buy brands
that you know.
To comfort those appropriating and
spending large sums of public money
fighting the depression it can be said,
quite reasonably, that there would be
no danger In spending $100,000,000,000
more, considering that the normal in-
come of the United States, In really
good times, Is close to $100,000,000,000.
If a man spent one or even two years'
income to settle all his troubles you'd
think the price reasonable.
It would be a silly mistake, of
course, to Issue the $100 000,000,000
In bonds and pay out another $100,-
000,000,000 for Interest, unnecessarily.
That needs to be said and will be said
quite often.
To read that Harry MacCracken,
seventy-flve-year-old retired cattle
puncher, jumped up when a bandit
told him to sit still, and "drilled" the
bandit through the shoulder, is mildly
Interesting. It is more interesting to
read that It happened In a "subur-
ban liquor store" of Colorado, where
MacCracken spends his time sitting by
the stove, "whittling." To sit whit-
tling by a liquor store stove seems a
strange occupation for one seventy-
five years old, who knows that time Is
whittling away his few remaining
days.
The AAA asks congress for com-
plete authority over all crops, all farm
activities, and for $40,000,000 to $60,-
000,000 to move farmers from poor
farms to better farms.
It is all benevolently planned, but
many a farmer would prefer to stamp
his foot and clap his hands in the old
Independent way.
The end of prohibition has not yield-
ed all that was promised, and hoped
for, in reform and in cash. Two-
thirds of all the whisky sold Is still
bootleg whisky. That cheats Uncle
Sam, and poisons many with bad
whisky.
In big New York city, many went to
hospitals after a "gay" New Year's
ere. It is little consolation to know
that the number of alcoholism cases
was somewhat smaller than during
prohibition years.

INCREASED DEMAND
FOR POULTRY, EGGS
Expansion of Industry Now
Seems Assured.
By Roy 8. Dearstyne, Head of North Caro-
lina State College Poultry Department*
WNU Service.
The increased demand for poultry
and fresh eggs over present production
is leading to a censervative expansion
of the poultry industry. Hatcheries
are already booked far ahead, and in-
dications point a favorable season for
the hatchery industry.
The development of hatcheries leads
to a balanced industry, since the poul-
trymen utilize the superior products of
the hatchery in improving their flocks
and the hatcheries pay premiums for
good eggs from the poultrymen. The
two phases of the industry are interde-
pendent.
As the mating season approaches,
poultrymen should start putting their
brooding and housing equipment in
good condition and lay plans for man-
aging their flocks for a successful
season.
Probably the most important factor
in the success or failure of the coming
year lies in the quality of baby chicks
hatched or purchased. If the chicks
are of proven stock, high in vitality
and descended from high producing,
blood-testing parents, no amount" of
equipment, care In feeding or manage-
ment will develop a quality flock.
The production of quality chicks is
expensive, but it is well worth the ex-
tra cost. Constant culling to eliminate
low producers, blood tests, and sanita-
tion and feeding costs money. But a
few cents difference In the price of a
chick may mean a difference of 50 eggs
a year in the production of the bird
when it has matured.
Good Plan to Caponize
to Make Cockerels Pay
What to do to make the cockerels
bring a larger return Is always more
or less of a problem. For those who
raise the lighter breeds, such as Leg-
horns, the best thing to do Is to dis-
pose of them as broilers Just as soon
as possible, says a writer In Successful
Farming. This will probably be when
the young males weigh In the vicinity
of one and a quarter pounds. The
sooner they can be marketed the bet-
ter. With the heavier breeds, such as
Plymouth Rocks, Rhode Island Reds,
or Wyandottes, It Is a different propo-
sition.
In this case, If there is a good pri-
vate broiler market, or If good prices
can be obtained from a dealer, It Is
probably good business to sell them.
The usual demand for such broilers
is for stock weighing two pounds or
two and a half pounds. If, however,
the price Is not good enough to make
something on them, it Is a better plan
to hold them until they can put on
enough weight to qualify as small
roasters, weighing at least four pounds.
If there is a good local private trade
for capons, It will be worth the flock-
owner's while to caponize a few when
the males weigh about a pound or one
and a quarter pounds. A private trade
Is the best kind to cater to when ca-
pons are to be marketed. The pres-
ence or absence of such a trade In any
locality should decide whether or not
it Is desirable to caponize. Many are
finding such a trade profitable, for they
get from 8 to 12 cents a pound more
than they do for roasters.
Substitute for Greens
A good substitute for winter green
food is alfalfa or clover hay, says a
University of Missouri authority. To
feed, provide a rack 18 inches above
the floor so that the chickens may pick
at the leaves. If the hay Is baled it
may be fed In the bale, simply turning
the bale over after the leaves from
one corner have been consumed. The
unconsumed portion may be used as lit-
ter. Others use from 3 to 10 per cent
alfalfa leaf meal in the laying mash.

Australia Seeking Aid *
for Enemies of Cactus
Years ago Australian settlers In-
cautiously imported cactus plants
from Central America and let these
escape from cultivation.
Freed from the natural enemies of
their homeland, and finding the dry,
sandy soils of Australia well suited
to them, these cactus Immigrants
multiplied enormously and overran
in a few years millions of acres of
agricultural land.
About ten years ago government
scientists started to fight this cactus
plague by bringing to Australia the
eggs of a Central American insect
related to the aphids or plant lies
and which attacks the cactus plants
and kills them.
More than three billion eggs ol
these insect cactus fighters are said
to have been distributed, billions of
cactus plants have been killed, and
five million acres of land have been
reclaimed. It now is found, how-
ever, that the cactus insect needs
help. It is able to kill off all young
shoots of the cactus plants so that
most of the plants die. A few plants;
however, may survive by means of
underground roots or shoots which
the present insect army cannot at-
tack.
Now the entomologists are hunt-
ing for some other insect to attack
these underground roots also.

Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They regulate
