Two More Quints Will Go Home ABERDEEN. S. D. UPI Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Fischer will have a special Christmas present. The doctor has told them two more of their quintuplets can go home from the hospital. The lone boy. James Andrew, went home Nov. 30. The hospital said it was not sending the remaining four home at the same time because the doctor wants to condition the Fischers to the new' members of the family gradually. The hospital also said it has not derided which two girls will be released. It probably won't make much difference, an aide said, because all four are in good condition. Alary Margaret, Mary Afagdalene, Mary Catherine and Mary Ann are still in the hospital. The quints were born Sept. 14, the first U. S. quintuplets to survive.

Q. We'd 1 ke to install a large picture window. How can we avoid higher heating hills and a cold area near the window? A. Use a wood window with double-glazing (insulating glass). The layer of air between the two sheets of glass is effective insulation tn ‘ ‘lie wood itself is a good insulating material, too. A bonus feature of wood windows is that condensation problems are virtually eliminated. Windows made of pondeiosa pine are widely available in many sizes and styles. • * « Q. What about self-sealing wind-resistant asphalt shingles— do they really work? A. Definitely. Just be sure to ask for asphalt shingles that have been approved for wind resistance by Underwriters’ Laboratories. UL-labeled shingles which have met rigid specifications for materials and hays passed severe wind tunnel tests have helped save many homes from serious damage in hurricane fecit states. • * • Q. Why does an electric heat Ing system require more insulation than oil or gas? A. It doesn't. It’s just that the electric heat industry has caught on to the value or insulating to recommended sUadards aod is making a point of telling thfir customers about it. wool insulation, with an installed resistance to heat loss of R-19 or It-24 in ceilings, R-ll in walls and R-13 in floors over unheated spaces, meets the latest standards for electrically heated homes. It works exactly the same in homes with other types of heating systems, adding yearround comfort and lowering heating and air-conditioning bills.

The Mf Corn Question Box Jw Lewis M. Camp, Director of Research, Pfister Associated

Growers, Aurora, III., answers proving corn yield. Q: We’ve heard (hat music makes corn grow faster. Is there anything to this? A: Contrary to popular reports, experiments show that sound—music or otherwise— has no discernible effect on the germination of corn seeds or on root growth. These results agree with those of other experiment stations around the world, reports W. D. Pardee, Illinois agronomist. University scientists see no reason to believe that moderate intensities of sound applied to a cornfield could have any effect on plants. It is true, said Pardee, that extremely liigu intensities of sound can damage plants. However, these waves can only be produced over a few cubic inches, and would have no effect on plants or soil temperature, he said, <1: What is a Planned Harvest Program? A: It is a method of planning your harvest before planting. Beginning in the fall, you evaluate your cornplanting program, and lay plans for planting early hybrids first. Researchers suggest that about one-fourth of the acreage be planted in early hybrid so it will be ready to harvest early in the fall. Mediumearly hybrids—30 to 40 per cent of the crop—go in next, with the remaining acreage lanted with regularly adapted ybrids. Q: What are the advantages of Planned Harvesting? A: Earlier harvesting while field weather conditions are good. -—Less field loss because corn is harvested on schedule. -—Faster, safer harvesting because corn harvested on time picks easier, without “plugging” up. —More time for fall plowing

important questions about imas harvest is completed earlier. —More feed from stalk fields because livestock can be turned in earlier after harvest. Q: What should you look for in a hybrid? A: Yield is important, but is not the only consideration. Disease resistance, standability, maturity, kernel hardness, and ease of harvesting are also important factors in selecting hybrid seed. Q: Is there really a seed corn that can be used for both silage and green chop, and is still a good grain producer? A: Yes. You can select a hybrid for high and low population and fertility, for desirable ear height and for drying time to harvest, as well as one that gives great bulk for silage or green chop feeding operations. Q: What’s being done to find new uses for corn? A: Many researchers are looking for possible new uses for corn, and some have found interesting possibilities. One is a new water-soluble gum made from corn sugar which could be used in industrial and food products as a thickener. Big advantage is it doesn’t thin out as do some gums. It has possible industrial applications in oil-well operations, improving liquids used in fighting forest fires, in cosmetics and many more. The University of Maryland this year received a grant from Corn Industries Research Foundation, Inc., to study the use of corn sweeteners in canned sweet potatoes. USD A researchers have developed a dialdehyde starch, which can be made from corn and other grains, which is added to paper pulp to add wet strength. This use alone coulci require up to I’.a million bushels a year.

Colonial Homes Feature Modern Wood Windows

This stately, sturdy New England home is one of seven new allelectric houses built in Stamford, Conn., by Steve Day. Each house is well insulated with mineral wool for comfort and economy. Wood windows also help conserve heat and contribute to authentic Colonial appearance.

Steve Day is one of the smart builders who know that you can use plenty of windows in electrically heated homes. Day, whose seven-home development in Stamford, Conn., was sold out a month after the model went up, says the Colonial design of the houses called for lots of

wood windows.

“Some builders think you have to cut way down on window area in electrically heated houses,” Day says. “But they're wrong. Wood is a naturally warm material. It acts as a good insulator.” Day, who recognizes the prime importance of insulation, has installed mineral wool in all of his houses to meet standards recommended for electrically heated homes. But he is also aware of the considerable added comfort and lower heating bills provided

by wood windows.

He notes that today’s quality wood windows, made of ponderosa pine, are equipped with

efficient weather stripping that’s built into them at the factory. They fit snugly, keeping heat in and cold air out. Wood also re1 sists the formation of condensation which can drip on walls and ruin draperies. By building weather-tight houses with thorough insulation and heat-blocking wood windows. Day was able to give his purchasers a heating guarantee of $345 for a normal heating season— 5500 degree days in the Stamford

area.

Day’s houses are on heavily wooded lots bordering a fishstocked stream that proved irresistible to several house-hunting anglers. Each of the homes, designed by architect Roswell F. Barratt, contains 2,000 square feet of living space and includes four bedrooms, recreation room with fireplace, baths, and a laundry and storage room. The 120-gallon electric water heaters give owners the advantage of offpeak electric rates.

Federal Agents Step Up Activity LOS ANGELES UPI Intense FBI activity in the San Fernando Valley was linked today with the kidnaping of Frank Sinatra Jr., but the federal agency refused to confirm they were on the trail of the young singer’s abductors.

easily identified. Aspects of the case sometimes mushroomed out of proportion as conjecture and rumor increased without a law enforcement agency to separate fact from fiction. The FBI, which counts the Sinatra case as only one of four out of 678 since 1932 still unsolved, came in for sharp criticism by Los Angeles Police

Chief William H. Parker because his department was not kept informed in the case. However, the veteran law enforcement officer said he continued to pass all information his men received concerning the case on to the federal agency.

FBI agents poured through a house in Canoga Park, taking pictures, making plaster casts of footprints and tire marks and carting away boxes of what appeared to be house furnishings. Neighbors deduced from the manner in which FBI agents questioned them that the search was in connection with the kidnaping of Frank Jr. Sunday night from a Lake Tahoe motel on the California-Nevada border. But agents w'ould say only “no comment” when asked to confirm or deny they were on the trail of the abductors. Frank Sinatra Sr., who celebrated his 46th birthday Thursday, paid $240,000 in ransom for the return of his 19-year-old son shortly after midnight Wednesday. It was learned Thursday the famed singer’s longtime friend. Alfred Hart, president of the City National Bank, supplied the cash on short notice. An unconfirmed report said that at least part of the bills were treated chemically so persons passing them could be
