‘TIRED?—RAISE TURKEYS,’ ADVISES SOCIAL LEADER

Comes Back to City in Fine Trim £v VTA (tervic* KANSAS CITY, Mo.,* Nov. 11— For that tired, jaded feeling, try raising turkeys. That’s the advice of Mrs. S. R. Layton of this city. Last spring Mrs. Layton was near a nervous breakdown. As the result of her work as a leading member of the Athenaeum, women’s civic organization; committee chairman of the Women’s City Club, and a stanch church supporter, her telephone rang almost constantly. Bhe had no time to rest. In the midst of the social season Mrs. Layton, tired out, received an offer from her sister, Mrs. A. E. Johnson, to go out to her farm and raise turkeys.' Put Away Modish Dresses “You do not make much money, but you could have the summer away from things which are driving you almost hysterical,” Mrs. Johnson told her sister. Mrs. Layton accepted. She put away her modish dresses and donned overalls and heavy boots. She had her home telephone disconnected. She sent word to all of her club and church committees that she was going to be out of the city for the summer. She paid $1 each for 583 baby turkeys and turned them out into a pasture on her sister’s farm. Then started a summer of great activity in getting the young birds ready for the Thanksgiving market. Tired Easily at First But even though the work was hard, she enjoyed it, for it was different from the trying, nervewracking social duties back in the city. At first Mrs. Layton tired easily, but soon she was able to follow her birds about the farm and along the country roads. It became a pleasure instead of a task. About the time she had the birds accustomed to the farm, a grasshopper horde swept across the midwest. While these insects played havoc with neighboring farms, the turkeys kept them cleaned off the farm of her sister. It wasn’t long before the neighbors were asking her to drive her turkeys over their fields. In this way, the turkeys got a lot of free meals. Realizes Nice Profit The price of $1 each for the turkeys seemed a bit high to old hands in the section, but Mrs. Layton called attention to the fact that the hatching of young turkeys is the hardest part of rearing them for market, and that she did not have time when she started in the business to wait to get a start by the egg-laying and hatching route. Despite the price paid for the birds, however, Mrs. Layton will realize quite a nice profit from their sale, she points out. She has successfully raised 550 out of the 583 birds. By Thanksgiving they will be grown to their full size and weight and will bring from $4 to $5 each, she estimates. Feed has cost about $250. Help has cost about S2OO. Figuring all expenses, Mrs. Layton believes she will gain betweeh $1,500 and $1,700 on the sale of the birds. Ready for City Again Monetary gain, however, is not the most profit Mrs. Layton has received from her experience on the farm. She finds herself in excellent health and with jaded nerves restored to steadiness. ‘‘Now I feel fit for a winter of activity in the city,” she says. “Next summer I hope to go into the turkey-raising business more extensively.” The remarkable thing about Mrs. Layton’s turkey venture is the large proportion of the young turkeys brought to maturity. This is attributed mostly to the close supervision and care which farmwives, with other tasks, ordinarily can not give. MISS ANNE BRODEY HOSTESS FOR CLUB Miss Anne Brodey was hostess for a social meeting of the Onawa Club Monday night. Bridge was played. Officers of the club are Misses Brodey, president; Lena Sandler, sec-retary-treasurer, and Kay Miller, business and social editor.

Made Possible by New Vick Product Based on New Idea for Prevention of Colds.

Indianapolis druggists authorized to sell new product on trial to Vicks Vapoßub users and refund price if Vick Plan does not reduce family’s yearly “Colds-Tax.” Mothers are guardians of the family health and directors of the family budget. It is the mothers who have the worry of colds and their cost. And it is the mothers who especially appreciate the new Plan for better “Control-of-Colds” in the home—just announced by the makers of Vicks Vapoßub. This Plan is made possible by a new preparation. Vicks Nose & Throat Drops, based on anew idea in “preventing” colds. It is a companion product to Vicks Vapoßub, the modern method of “treating” colds. That is, they aid and supplement each other. Here, briefly, is the Vick Plan for better “Control-of-Colds” in the home: I.—Before a Cold Starts. Use Vicks Drops—just a few drops up each nostril—whenever you have been exposed to anything which your own experience tells you is apt to be followed by a cold—contact with others having fresh colds, crowds, stuffy ill-ventilated rooms, public places—a night on the Pullman or 4 dusty automobile ridesudden changes in temperature, wet or cold—inhaling smoke, dost, gases

ing into puffs just above the elbows. This black sheer velvet gown is given a princess effect through the moulded bodice and the new skirt treatment that hugs the figure until knee depth, bursting then into a new graciously full flaring hemline. Style No. 660 may be had in sizes 14, 16, 18, 20 years, 36 and 38 inches bust. Crepe satin, crepe marocain, lace and crepe silk are suitable for this French model.

—excesses in living, such as overeating, smoking or drinking—after a hard day, when you are over tired. In short, don’t wait for that stuffy, sneezy irritation of the nasal passages. Then you are not “catching^golds” —you have already caught one. 2.—After a Cold Starts At night, massage the throat and chest well with Vicks Vapoßub—now available in "stainless form,” if you prefer. Spread on thickly and cover with warm flannel. Leave the bed clothing loose around the neck so that the medicated vapors arising may be inhaled freely all night long. During the day, use Vicks Drops every few hours—any tim**, any place. This gives you a full 24-hour treatment and without the risk of too much internal “dosing," which so often upsets the digestion—especially of children. Both these Vick products are external. They can be used freely and a$ often as needed without the slightest harmful effect. Trial Offer to Vick Users You have Vicks Vapoßub. Now get a bottle or Vicks Nose Drops. *Use it with Vapoßub as directed in the Vick Plan for better “Control-of-Colds” in the home. If you are not satisfied that it actually reduces your high cost of*colds this winter, your druggist is authorized to refund your money.—Advertisement.

Marketing Cleverness Is Valuable BY SISTER MARY NEA Service Writer Many homemakers are faced with the problem of determining how much of the family income shall be spent for food. It frequently has been estimated that not more than one-fourth of the income should be allowed for food. But when the income falls below what might be considered even a moderate sum, the allowance for food may be above the allotted onefourth, due to the fact that food is of first importance on the list of necessities. The amount we spend for food is influenced by many factors. Individual tastes, nutrition requirements, avoidance of waste and economical planning control the food budget as definitely as does the size of our pocketbook. The ability of the cook also has much to do with the cost of meals. Good cooking is essential if good meals are to be enjoyed, no matter what materials are used. Clever marketing often makes it possible to provide excellent meals at a low cost. Buying in quantity whenever a larger amount can be used to advantage- is always an economy. The use of canned fruits and vegetables in place of out-of-season fresh ones makes for a greater variety of foods at a moderate cost. Consideration of the edible and waste materials in foods is important. Meats containing a large amount of bone, although low in price, may be more expensive as a source of actual food than a more costly piece of clear meat. However, if the bone and trimmings are utilized in a soup or stew the waste material is nil. Cereals, both the breakfast and the paste foods, contribute much food value at low cost. Dried fruits and dried vegetables are cheap sources of energy and mineral salts. The root vegetables and cabbage have a long season and are very inexpensive. They supply many valuable nutrients for the minimum outlay. Cheese should not be overlooked as a means toward economy. A concentrated food, it contains no waste and is rich in calories. There are many varieties of fish that lend themselves to low-cost meals. The wrapped, boneless fillets are very moderate in price and furnish protein and minerals. The planning of three nourishing meals every day in the year requires a knowledge of the composition of foods as well as imagination and creative ability on the part of the home-maker. Protein, fat, carbo-hydrates, mineral constituents and vitamins must be served daily if good health is to be maintained. BRIDGE FETE GIVEN BY MISS HERDRICH Miss Berta Clare Herdrich entertained with a bridge party on Tuesday night at her home, 3162 North Capitol avenue. Guests were: Mesdames Robert' Blount. Thomas Beck, William Honkins. Misses Betty Ann Copeland. Dorothy Anne Rucker, Mary Lou Twyman and Elizabeth Pickett of Greenfield.

no treaties, optional clause, the general act and treaty for financial assistance, reinforce! by results of the Washington and London naval conferences. There also is a set of forces, he said, which has its origin in the fear that in spite of all that can be done, war will result, causing retention of war as an expedient to which nations will resort in case peaceful means fail. This is resulting in mounting armaments the world over, he said. “The world has changed so rapidly since 1914,” Dr. Edwards said, “that it has not been possible to keep pace. The world has grown incomparably small, extensively interrelated, and absolutely interunited in all its phases.” Dr. Edwards sees world co-opera-tion as the only way to meet the crisis.
