Only trouble is the new house that Dad built in 1920 is located out from behind the windbreak. Why aren't more of them established? Probably because most people do not have the patience to look for trees and get them started. It's like life insurance, it can be done tomorrow. I venture to say that 90% of' the life insurance sold is sold because some poor guy's living depends on his making the sale. No one from his first "wah!" to senility should be without it, yet that is the way it is sold. Some of those who have windbreaks established in the county are Russell Beard, Hebron; Clarence Seegers, Marengo; Ralph Dodge, Genoa; Ray Horenberger, W. Mc- Henry; John Paulsen, Woodstock; and L. E. Countryman, Harvard Most of these were established under the supervision of the Extension Forester, College of Agriculture.

Commercial equipment freezes so rapidly that only small air cells and ice crystals are formed. The home refrigerator in use today cannot freeze ice cream so rapidly, and larger crystals result; but the new-type refrigerator is expected to step up the freezing time and make smoother ice ".ream. ou: t the dhrUn of labor la flu Canity.

Cold Desserts The most desirable temperature for serving cold desserts is from 45 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit, and it is much better to serve them colder and allow than to warm on the plate than to run the risk of allowing them to be eaten too warm. If the frozen fruit is -to be used in frozen salad, ice cream, or in mixed frozen fruit dessert, the fruit may be handled throughout the frozen state, or while some ice remain* in the tissue. \',i'Eggs and Tana Here's a way to combine haii cooked eggs and tuna fish.

Make a mark on a piece of white paper. With U <h eyes open, it |p not difficult to jaL a pencil right on the mark. But closa one eye and you will flni it hard to guide the pencil to the mark, says the Better Vision institute. Two eyes give us what is known as binocular vision. This provides a third dimension to our seeing, helps us to judge distances and the size of ob» Jects. I f ; sit'I' During the recent trip into the! Southwest of Rt. Rev. Mjsgr. C. S. Nix and Rt.
