BIGGEST SHIP
UNDER
Present big ocean liners will have
-te-hanrtheir honors over to the Nor-
mandi-e when she sets forth to con-
quer the seas next year. This great
75,000- ton, 1,027 foot vessel is now
under construction in shipyards at
■St" Nazaire, France, arid is due to
sail for New York on her maiden
I)wyage next June.
Her closest competitor in size will
be the British liner Majestic which
has a registeredjtonnage of 56.600
and-is 915 feet in length. All these
gigantic ocean liners are bound to
be a waste of money in the end —
but when it is money that is due to
the United:St *es, it is a good policy
ropeari nations to put this
money into boats rather than pay it
to us.—Pathfinder. ;

little incidents often give birth to
great ideas. And just in case you
have been asking who first thought
of the idea of putting ear protectors
worn by umpires, here
is how it happened. Way back in
1912 an umpire -named Billy Evans
was checking them off behind tlte
plate when a fast one pitched by
Walter Johnson passed through the
catcher's hands and seriously damag-
ecf iKe umpire's ear. Right then and
there Evans decided an umpire's ear
protection and told the ma-
nufacturers so—and there have been
ear * protectors on the umps' masks
ever since. •-—"""":

Many people .think it funny that
farmers and county agent work for
bigger yields per acre or per animal
at the very time that the Govern-
ment seeks to remove surpluses thru
reduction programs. Yet this is ve-
ry logical, because big yields usually
go hand in hand with efficient farm-
ing and profits. Low production per
acre or per animal is unprofitable at
all price levels except abnormally
high ones Acreage reduction is the
cheapest way to reduce production.
Poor farming is the most expensive
method. Drouth is the most cruel
method. - «"■ :

only slow to average, with some sec-

about completed, and stands are av-

the entire state. Some shedding has
resulted from extreme heat and in-
sect depredations. On the wholte the

Food has always been the actuating problem
of the human race, and the question now is-not
so much its production as its preservation. ^
Our primitive ancestors found that foot!
could be dried, smoked, salted and for a time
kept from deterioration, ,and thus processssj>f
curing began. The people in more northern r
icountries found that meats and other-foods
<ept perfectly when frozen and idea of refrk
geration had it6 inception.
The electric (refrigerator solved the problem
of the perfect preservation of foods during the
warmer seasons. For a small sum you can buy
an electric refrigerator that will soQn pay for
itself in preventing the spoilage of foods in a
medium sized family, not to speak of tne great-
er comfort of having frozen desserts and ice
cubes for drinks as a by-product. ! ~ ,
TKe 'electric Jref rigeratoiTis perhaps the out-
standing invention for the home of all ages.
