Egg Production Upped
By Ultraviolet Rays
Experiment Indicates
19 Per Cent Increase
Hens exposed to ultraviolet light
lay 10 to 19 per cent more eggs, the
department of agriculture reports.
The report was issued after five
years of tests in a specially built
underground poultry house at the
agricultural research center at
Beltsville, Md.
Department scientists said the
tests were started in 1945 as a re
sult of a chance discovery that the
very short rays of invisible light

IRe department oi afrieoJUire
reports that hens exposed to
ultraviolet light lay II to 19 per

frequently used to kill bacteria also
increased the egg output of hens.
The department reported It "dem
onstrated conclusively that neither
tho number of bacteria in the poul
try house nor the vitamin-D content
of the light rays was involved in the
beneficial effects ’■
The properties of the light that
,'aused the boost in egg production

New Rtbbit Repellant
Is Highly Effective
A new rabbit repellent that hat
Vroved highly effective in discourag
ing cottontails from nibbling at
beans, lettuce, radishes, oollard
greens, carrots and com, as wall
aa flowers, has been developed
The formulation can be dusted
on young vegetable plants and flow-
era, or can be muted with water
| and used aa a spray.
In one senes of testa made by a
chemical company, lettuce patches
1 that had been treated with the rab
bit repellent were not touched by
the hungry rodents while 80 to 100
per cent of the untreated plants In
other patches were nibbled and
damaged.
The company's research scientists
discovered that rabbits did not show
as much interest in carrots as they
did in other foods.
mail the plates immediately upon
their delivery by the penitentiary, the
department is processing each appli
cation as it is received and laying it
aside. There are so many applica
tions in this huge suspense file, how
ever, it is near impossible to search
through it and find one of a particu
lar motorist.
As in past years, persons ordering
their plates before October 31 will
not be required to pay the penalty
even if the highway department is
j delayed in filling the order.
Don't Count Him
Out, the Horse Is
Moking o Comeback
Glenville, Minn., Oct. 7— The
'horse is staging a comeback in rural
America.
Once a beast of burden on the
farms, the nag now has a new role,
i He is becoming a pet.
Of course, he’ll earn his keep by
giving the farm family the pleasure
I of horseback riding, but use Of that
energy is a far cry from that he used
to burn up tilling the soil.
The horse has again found favor
in Southern Minnesota—so highly
mechanized that farmers here-abouts
won’t even swat mosquitoes by hand.
Insect destruction has been put on a
mechanized scale. What the farmers
can’t kill by aerial spraying, they
destroy by other mechanical means.
This section used to be proud of
its Clydesdales, Percherons and Bel
gians. Now such animals are as un- 1
usual as a 1912 Maxwell and at coun
ty fairs a matched team of Clyde*
gets as much attention as the hoot-'
chy-kcotchy dancers on the midwajr.
The draft animal gave way to th#
tractor. And something went out of'
rural living. A fanner and his team
of horses held each other in mutual
esteem .They worked for each other’s
living and fared equally in the fot-l
tunes of the battle of wresting an .n-
come from the stubborn soil.
The tireless tractor has made the
horse obsolete as a drawer of loada
The tractor is more efficient and
faster Maybe that's why the fanner
has time to go horseback riding
Anyhow, something has happened,
as P H Cottrell of Glenville can
testify.
Cottrell Is in the business of mee*-
mg the farmers' demand for horses
He reports they are offering fancy
prices for saddle animals To meet
the demand he has had to go to the
Dakotas and Iowa for atocks.
It's a grand life the nag ia leading
now. Fed. groomed and cared for like
high priced milch cows they go to
the fairs trimmed with satin ribbon.
Shed no tear for the horse He's on
his way back to a proper station in

A light ladder is a great conven
ience about the farm as it can be
used in the fruit trees, repairing the
telephone line, or for any of many
jobs. To make the ladder shown
above use a straight pole, six or
seven inches in diameter. Fastep a
wire or ring around it about eight
feet from the large end. Then split
the pole and spread the two parts.
Make a hole in each half for the bot
tom rung. After it is in put a wire
under the bottom rung and twist it
tight. Cut notches for the rungs
above and nail them in place. This
will be found a most serviceable
ladder.

Consumption oi Canned
Milk Increases in U. S.
Annual consumption of canned
evaporated and condensed milk av
erages around 20% pounds per per
son, a recent survey revealed.
The heat treatment given in steri
lizing evaporated milk makes it
more easily digested, and therefore,
ideal baby food. This use, plus use
in tea and coffee, accounts for a
large portion of the evaporated milk
sales in the United States, the sur
vey concluded.
It offers more for less—throughout
All these features at lowest cost: Center-
Point Steering; Curved Windshield with
Panoramic Visibility; Fisher Unisteel
Body-Construction.
It operates more economically
Owners know that Chevrolet brings them
an unequalled combination of thrills and
thrift, because it’s powered by a Valve-in-
Head Engine . . . exclusive to Chevrolet
in its field. Come in v and see it!
AMERICA’S BEST SELLER!
It's better looking—all around
Yes, it’s the best looking of all low-priced
cars, as a recent independent nationwide
Purvey shows-and, inmddition, it’s the
longest, widest, heaviest car in its field.
It drives more easily
Finest no-shift driving at lowest cost with
Chevrolet’s Powerglide Automatic Trans
mission* ... or finest standard driving
at lowest cost with Chevrolet>
Synchro-Mesh Transmission.
It lasts longer, too
Chevrolet cars are extra-sturdy, extra-
rugged, extra-durable. That’s one reason
why there are over a million more Chev
rolet* on the road than any other make.
It rides more smoothly
So smooth—so steady—so safe . , . the
easiest riding car in its field ... thanks to
the famous Unitized Knee-Action Ride
combined with airplane-type shock ab
sorbers all around!
