The kind of house to be selected will depend largely upon the volume of meet to be smoked,' aS' well as offseason use that may be made of the house. ^ Where an **A" shaped smoke house Is used, the wail or sides should be made of boards about 9 feet long, in order to keep the meat about S feet away from the fire. *n*e sloping walls should be spread 7 feet at the bottom. The house 8 feet long is large enough for the smoking of a large number of hogs, as usually the Canadian bacons, boneless butts and Hie bacons will come out of the cure three or four weeks before the hams are ready to smoke. Many use the barrel for smoking meat. The smoke shotild enter the barrel through a tunnel from a fire as much as 5 or 6 feet from the barrel. For the other type of house illustrated, almost any material may be-used for the walls. There should be some small openings or cracks at the top of the house. The house walls should be at least 7 feet high. m Smoke Houses for Every Purpose. The floor dimensions may be as little as 4 by 6 feet. Small one or two car garages have been used satisfactorily for smoke houses. The storm cellar or storage cellar may also be utilized. It takes about SO hours of continuous smoking to finish the job on hams. A small fire can be started every morning and allowed to die down during the afternoon, or the smoking can be done continuously. King Tut Contributes Pest Resistant Pea At the Air Forces Tactical center, Orlando,* Fla., may be seen growing a new specie of pea, "King Tut. The original seeds from which these vines sprang were placed by Egyptian priests in the tomb of King Tutankhamen, 3,300 years ago. When Howard Carter found the peas in the royal tomb of King Tutankhamen in 1922, he sent them to England. A few later found their way to America, finally coming* into production at the AFTC in Florida. ,The department . of agriculture pronounces them as a specie previously unknown in this country, or any place else so far as could be determined. The remarkable thing about these plants, whereas the usual worms, lice and beetles continued to chew up surrounding vegetation, they, spurned completely the Egyptian intruders. > Arranging Ideal Barn The ideal barn will be arranged for "circular travel" to eliminate dead-end trips and backtracking.

RARE HEADPIECE Tale university's first professor of anthropology was a young man named Othniel Marsh, who was financed by a relative in building up for the university the most complete museuxh in existence of relics of prehistoric human life and culture. Marsh was both learned' and excescively modest, and a great favorite with the students. Miny of his lecCures were given t in the museum's hall of fossils, where he was surrounded with skeletons and exhibits both geologic and biologic. One day he appeared before his class with a new exhibit in his hands. Obviously he was very proud of it "Here," he said, "is the skull of an extinct carnivorous ape, a very rare specimen. There are only two such skulls in the world. One is in tile British museum, and I--" he paused with an expression of modest pride--"1 have the other," RINGWOOD (By Mrs. George Shepard) Phyllis and Beverly Bruce spent the past week in the Granville Carlson home in Maywood.

The rust is spread between hosts by wind-borne spores. It survives the winter in the black stage on grain stubble, in straw piles and on wild grasses. The black spores cannot infect the hew crops of grains and grasses in the spring, but they do infect susceptible barberry bushes, causing the spring or cluster-cup stage to develop on the leaves. Spores from the leaves of the diseased barberry infect the grains and John Lay. A lunch was served fol- I lowing cards. i 1 .
