. « *——■ mw „ | Houseware Sales Are Due For New High ATLANTIC CITY, Aug (INS)— The president of the National Housewares Manufacturers Association thinks 1965 will be the biggest year ever for houseware sales. According to Cheater M. McCreary, im Atlantic City for the recent 23rd National Summer Houseware exhibit, the two-billion dollar industry will produce sales figures up to 15 to 18 per cent above 1954. Volume should top 1953 sales —■ and 1953 was the best business year for the giant industry. McCreery based his optimism on the fact that most segments of the industry enjoyed good business during the first six months of the year. He also felt that recent major industry increases will gradually spread to the bulk of the na- , tions workers, giving them more ! money to spend. He stated while the steel and auto industry wage gains might inMoarMans helps me el . -V ■■ make more milk Thousands of DHIA Records prove that you get more milk when you balance your own ~ grain and forage with Moor* Man's Mintrate* Because Moor Man’s Mintrate for cows supplies the balanced vitamins, proteins and minerals necessary for better utilization oi the feed value in your homegrown feeds.

(INS) — Housewives buck a buying bottleneck .that consumes more than 11 eight-hour ‘‘work - ’ days a year.

Says Child Can Sleep In Fixed Up Attic NEW YORK, Aug. (INS) — If the young miss in your home is screaming her lady-like lungs out for a room of her own, you might try fixing over the attic for her. Even if it's an under-the-eaves room with a slanting roof, it can be decorated to delight her. Such a slant-roof was shown at a recent Now York model room display. A combination of pink and provincial is a dainty and delicate motif for the young lady. This room instead of using a piece of furniture for the feature attraction, left the focus of attention on the wallpaper. It was pale pink, and covered with pretty pink butterflies —not just the walls, but the ceiling as well. Baseboards and other exposed surfaces were tinged with pink to complete the effect. The rug was rose colored and in addition to the pink bed extra seat were supplied by pink velvet-cov-ered ottomans. In one corner stool a small provincial table and chair for a vanity. The wall behind this was paint ed pink instead of papered. The general effect was one of added space, and the low-scaled furniture kept the ceiling from appearing too low. The same general idea could be used for a boy’s room using perhaps a self-patterned pale blue paper and an airy, open and modern desk in place of the vanity. New Yotk — Almost 12 percent of all adult Americans have one or more college degrees. About 64 million tons of coal came from Kentucky in 1954.

Once Shaved Red Heads, Now He Coifs Redheads LOS ANGELES (INS) — An ex-Gl. who spent part of his time in Korea shaving the heads of Surly Communist prisoners of war, now has much prettier and more co-operative subjects on which to practice his tonsorial talents. Ferdinand Von Berg, 24-year-old former Army medical corpsman of Los Angeles is living the dream of every war-weary GI. All day long he is surrounded by women. He is a student of cosmetology and hair styling at a Los Angeles technical school and whiles away the hours moulding the coiffures of lovely ladies. But things weren’t so pleasant in Korea when he was assigned to delouse and cleanup captive North Korean officers in an American prison camp. Von Berg was tagged for the job because he had learned barbering. You’d think that a job like that would be a safe and easy one in the midst of war, but the way Von Berg tells it, it sounds tike something above and beyond the line of duty. He said the fanatic prisoners were as cooperative as an alley cat about to be shampooed. They had to be forcibly restrained and would kick, scream and create ail sorts of a fuss when he tried to cut their hair. They even bit him several times so badly that he required medical aid. He eaid they were worse wounds than the one he got while earning five battle stars. As if that was not enough, the captives added insult to injury. “They stank and spat and called the Americans capitalist, warmongering imperialistic dogs,’’ he said. "And their hair was full of microscopic livestock.” WHEW! CAMDEN, N. J.. Aug. 24 (INS) —Plumber William Whalen pounded on an obstruction in a Camden sewer vent for five minutes with a chisel and a sledge hammer. Prying out the object, he found it was a live 75-n)illimeter shell. The explosive was rushed to an Army WELL STACKED PHILADELPHIA. Aug., (INS) —Crown Cork & Seal Co., has developed a new rectangular can that stacks one on top of the other in a unique way. The container features a center spout, and each can bottom is intended to accommodate the spout of the can underneath. ' About 115 billion cups of coffee are consumed in the U. S. annually.

I Test For Eggs With Thick Shell CORVALLIS. Ore. (INS) — A quick new method of choosing breeding hens that will produce thick-shelled eggs is offered by Paul Bernier, poultry research expert at Oregon state college. The common method used by poultry men to test egg shells in choosing breeding stock has been to break the shell and measure it with a micrometer. Bernier has added new findings to an old "specific gravity” test which leaves the eggs suitable for marketing or incubation.

The test hinges on a proper mixture of aalt water in which thickshelled eggs sink and thin-shelled eggs Goat. Bernier estimated that at least ‘ a tenth of all marketed eggs are ’ broken or cracked in handling be- . tween the nest and the consumer. Although some of the breakage Is due to poor feeding, he ’ said, a , hen must have the inherent abill- ! ity to produce strong-shelled eggs ! when fed the proper diet. The research expert estimated that broken and cracked eggs cost . Oregon producers alone a million and a half dollars a year. The U. S. consumes about 40 percent of the supply of cocoa.
