WAN LAIS BEING RAISED IN KANSASFOR FUR Imported Karakul Sheep Imported on 2,000-Acre Ranch, | By SEA Service ■ TOPEKA. Kan.. July 1-—Persian lambs are being reared successfully In this country for their valuable fur. I Karakul, winter covering for the Llite in fashion, may now be obtained ■from the 2,000-acre Kansas ranch of ■j. M. Crawford, instead of the faraway market o' Bokhara, in Central ■Asia. In 1914. when the World War cur:ailed foreign trade, Crawford got the idea of starting his unique sheep ranch. He invested $50,000 in the venture, so that he, too, might obtain the tightly-curled, lustrous black 3eece of the Persian lamb. Crosses Stock He imported, thirty-five Karakul theep from Bokhara, twenty rams ind fifteen ewes. These he crossed with native Lincoln and Cotswold iheep, and the lambs of this cross ear the valuable fur. Nearly 1.000 lambs bearing these pelts, which are valued at from $lO to SSO apiece, were born of the Kansas fur farm this year. Bundles of jelts in lots of fifty, worth more than 11,000 a bundle, have been shipped a the New York markets. "" ' Only the lambs that died, however, are being sold for fur. The pest will be kept until grown and sold for breeding animals. Pure-bred Karakul rams now com mand $2,500 to $F 000 each, while the half-bloods sell fur about SSOO. 1 Hardier Sheep Crawford’s pioneering may put added impetus into breeding of a hardier sheep in this country. He points out that if American farmers could introduce some Karakul blood Into their sheep, it would repay them manifold in hardiness and finer mutton qualities of the cross proid acts. Crossing Karakuls with native sheep, he says, results in an in•rease in weight, sometimes as much as 50 per cent. Another result is the elimination of the woolly ar musklike flavor objectionable to many persons who, for this reason alone, refuse to eat mutton. The imported sheep thrive well in this country, says Crawford, be[&us<£ they are a hardier breed than the natives.

Orange Blossoms Mean Nothing to These Girls

LEFT TO RIGHT—DOROTHY GARDEN, EDITH ELLIOTT, ADA TULENE (ABOVE) AND GRETCHEN SCHMITH. RESPECTIVELY THEY ASPIRE TO BE MOVIE ACTRESS, SWIMMING TUTOR, WIFE AND FARMER.

By JACK JUNGMEYER NEA Service Writer. 1 ANT A ANA, Cal., July I. From this county of orange l___J blossoms and feminine selfexpiession, in the month when a young iadv’s fancy popularly is supposed to veer lightly to romance, comes the shocking declaration that only one girl In thirtysix wants a husband. That is the gist of a poll just completed alnong high school maids by the agricultural education committee of the Orange County farm bureau. Out of 2,646 girls replying to questionnaires on elected careers, only sixty-eight definitely desired marriage. The canvass perturbed the farm

Slow on Meals

PAXY professional and business men have difficulty meeting dietary demands they are frequently called upon to follow. At least such was the case with associates of Mr. Mann of Anytown. The noon ldnch generally means eating at the handiest place and accepting such foods as the bill of fare may offer. And. fresh from a morning of possible overactivity, he of all persons should be careful. He expects a pill or laxative to counteract the evil effects of violating hygienic and dietary laws. And so he goes on overtaxing the

bureau, which had hoped to guide the assumed romantic leanings of the young ladies toward the lads of the great rural spaces. Even the eleven girls who want to be farmerettes don’t exactly crave marital co-operation. It seems that the men who grow orange blossom wreaths will have very little opportunity to use them at their own weddings, unless the young ladies change their minds. School teaching called to the greatest number —980 of the 2,646. Typists, according to the answers of many, always wear good clothes, and business men take them out to lunch—wherefore a goodly number of the 405 eager for stenographic places hoped to save considerable on meals.

When worry over business affairs is added to this hasty lunch, it is worse. For the busy type of man the noon meal should be the lightest of the day. He should haw a hearty breakfast, however, and hurrying home to dinner at night he should not immediately sit down to eat, but should find some means of recreation or play for half an hour or more; then resting for a few moments.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Twenty-one intended becoming beauty parlor experts—maybe to eliminate the bi-weekly marcel bill. Journalism interested fortyone: eight seek religious callings, and fifty-three wouldn’t mini becoming movie stars. One plans to be a swimming instructor. Seventy-five were undecided —so the ranks of the would-be brides may be augmented. Social service workers, interior decorators, artists and librarians completed the list. Not a very encouraging prospect for ’’marrying parsons” in a county that boasts an unusual number of. handsome and well-to-do young bachelors. Certainly devastating to male vanity, or — what is this world coming to?

—■ Martha Lee Says Cupid’s Setback May Mean Ultimate Gain

Dan Cupid had a bad month in Indianapolis in June. Only 460 marriage licenses were granted, as compared with 606 for June, 1923. “Hard times and unemployment” were blamed by the assistant county clerk.

Certain persons will see in this decrease cause for pessimism. But why should there be? It may mean that young men and women have gained foresight; that they are not rushing into marriage, trying to live on “love in a cottage," when they have not even enough money to keep the cottage going. It may mean that they are not marrying on the “love at first sight’ theory, as they did during and just after the war. There is no cause for optimism in a high marriage record, if the divorce record remains proportionately high. Thus far, no decrease in divorces is reported. But if the decrease in marriages means an increase in thinking by prospective brides and bridegrooms, the decrease in divorces Wil come, too. Bitter Story Martha bee: I wish you would let others read my letter —those little ones that should be thiuUinx of their books, instead of boys. When I was 15 a city man worked for my father, on the farm. I ran away with him. My father told this mail he would get into trouble if he harmed a hair on my head. We never married. I just folowed him all over the country. When I was 17. I became a mother to a wonderful girl. I was happy for a while, until he began mistreating the bahy. ami he beat me until I could hardly move . I was afraid he would kill the baby. He made me leave her on the steps of a Door of Hope. I got back home and stayed until my folks died. Then with what money was mine, I tried to find my girl. I went from coast to coast, but I never found my Hose Mary. I am an old woman in looks. M.v life is spent In getting back at the wan who wronged me. He has a wonderful wife and baby, whom I talk to. His slster-ln-law is a dpr friend of mine. We know each others' story. He laughs and tells how he used to throw my baby up in the air. That makes me hate him all the more. I fol-

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO LESLIE PRESCOTT, CARE OF THE SECRET DRAWER. CONTINUED. "So you think. Leslie Prescott, that I inveigled Karl into marrying me," Alice repeated as I did not answer, knowing that If I did she would be angrier than ever. However. when she repeated the question, I said: “Well, I heard you say many times that you couldn’t understand why I married Ja> k when I could have married Karl —that you considered Karl the most splendid man in the world; and that you also could not conceive a girl marrying a poor man. When you annexed the most splendid man in the world with one of its great fortunes, I thought your ambition was satisfied.” Alice, little Marquise, fairly stamppd with rage. “And you think,” she said, her voice thick and trembling, "that Karl Whitney still loves you and is perhaps marrying me simply because he wants to be near you and to know* about you.” “I think nothing of the kind. I think Karl is very fond of you. But I do think he is the kind of a man that loves to nurse a poetic ideal. I believe that Karl Whitney Is happier because I refused him and married another man than he could possibly be with me. for he has made me into an idealistic dream woman that I never could live up to. "Evidently he knows you as you are. in a measure, for you have not scrupled to show your temper, your egotism and your selfishness to him. “Under the circumstances, -why pick on him now about an old love that should be allowed to die, If it isn't already dead? You have no reason to be jealous of me, Alice, for you know that I am very much In love with Jack. I would not trade hlni for forty Karl Whitneys with forty fortunes much bigger than his.

low him now as before, but to make him suffer. Some think that girls of today are wise to the ways of men, but if a man knows what he is doing, he can wind any fool girl around his finger. K. H. Do you get any real satisfaction out of this vengeance? Don’t you think you might find content in trying to save other girls from making the 'mistake you made, instead of trying to hurt this man? I do. You speak of the man’s “wonderful wife and baby.” Anything you did to him would reflect on them. Think that over. LefTriat’ Dear Miss Lee: 1. A boy I was going with last summer went to Texas for a while. A couple ol weeks ago he returned and came out to see me. He wanted me to go steady with him. X told him to let mo think about it and then when he phoned about a date later I would let him know I have not heard from him since I told him I would go with him steady. What do you think is the matter? Can you tel! me how to treat him? 2. When introducing a friend to two or three others, what should you say? LONESOME JACK. 1. You can’t treat him at all, until you hear from him. Then be very, very cool until you hear his explanation. Anil you probably will keep on being cool afterward. 2. If you are introducing a woman, say; Miss Jones, may I present Miss Brown, Miss Blank, Mr. Jackson. Mr. Green?” Pause long enough between the names for a brief acknowledgment. If you are Introducing a man, turn first to the oldest woman in the crowd and say; “Mrs. Jones, may I present Mr. Brown?” Then merely repeat the other names: Miss Blank, Miss Green, Mr. Jackson, Mr. Williams.”

“Why worry about a pearl necklace which is a mere string of beads to a young man of the wealth of Karl—a young man who is giving you two strings of pearls, each one more expensive than the one he gave me. I think you are very little minded and grasping, and 1 want to tell you that if every woman insisted upon having all the presents returned to her that her fiance had given to other girls, a great many women in the world would lose many jewels. “Also, you must know, Alice, that very few men marry their first loves. In fact, I think that the man who does marry his first love is sejdom happy. A man’s ideal usually changes greatly as he becomes middle aged anil matured by responsibility and experience.” “It isn't that —you know it isn’t that. Leslie. I don’t care so much for the money that those pearls cost; but every time I see them around your neck I shall remember the long years you were the inspiration of Karl's life, and the jewels are the mementos of the quest.” “I’ll try not to wear them when you are around,” I answered, and in my own mind I decided that I w'ould be around her ns little as possible. I’m going to stop this letter now. i little Marquise, for T have to go and see Ruth. After that I probably will have lots to fell you. Every day I thank God for you and the legacy that you left me in . the secret drawer. LESLIE. (Copyright. 1924, NEA Service, Inc.) NEXT: Letter from Alice Hamilton to Lady Betty Carnovan.
