LANGLEY, Racing SodL ^ Practice of burning lawns and aaa» ttires is deplored by a University of Minnesota extension aoUa trrHrlitt Paul M. Burson. In addition to the haaard of grass fires, burning destroys the organic matter that holds aoistore and gives fertility to the aoll, according to Buraon. As a result, the aoU of burnedover areas win tend to dry out more quickly. Fire kills clover and injures the roots of the greasus with the result that growth of both lawns and pastures is retarded. Experiments have shown that burning pasture not only delays growth but cuts yield as well. Removal of the organic matter can also promote erosion. Another argument against the practice oi burning is that It removes protective cover for wildlife. Probably the reason Aiany people have adopted the habit of burning is that the new grass shows up more quickly, because the cover is destroyed, leading them to believe that burn In? stimulates growth. Actually, the opposite is true. ' Nutritionist Recommends Egg a Day for Everybody J; Eggs are among our most versa tile foods, for they may be combined with every kind of food. They may be used in vegetables, sandwiches beverages, salads, breads, desserts salad dressings and sauces. And, o course, eggs for breakfast is an olti American custom as popular as "turkey for Thanksgiving. It is good meal planning to include an egg for each member of the fajrnily in each day's meals, says Miss Josephine Flory, Missouri university extension nutritionist. Eggs are a good building food, as weU as a good protective food. Along with meat and milk they are a source of high qu&li* ty protein necessary for life and growth. Egg yolk ia an exceUent source o« iron of the kind needed for red blood And both egg white and egg yolk arr rich in riboflavin needed for genera! health and a clear skin. Vitamin A found in abundance in egg yolk, help? keep eyes healthy and builds up resistance to colds. ^ i Over one hundred friends and ^neighbors of Mrs. Henrietta Vycital and Theodore Olsen, Sr., honored this pair at a birthday party last Sunday afternoon on the specious Krands of the Harold Vycital estate, ncing on the close-cropped velvety lawn was a new experience for the many city guests present. After an afternoon of dancing and visiting a delicious buffet supper was enjoyed by all. As darkness fell, myriads of Japanese lanterns came to life to cast their cheerful glow throughput the grounds. To Theodore Olsen, Sr., and Henrietta Vycital it was a happy day indeed.

This is s costly and highly fetal disease. The virus lives on from year to year, not only in horses, but also in wild life and Insects. It is even known to b* harbored by mites that infect wild birds. Vaccination ia said to be the most dependable means of protecting horses against sleeping sickness. Other precautions urged by the American Veterinary Medical association are: Control parasites Ad flies. Use nets .and insecticides to protect horses against biting Insects.

To prevent scorching, the iron for smoothing the trgated fabrics should be several degrees cooler than ordinarily uasd on cotton fabrics. The above formula has been used with success on theater scenery and decorations, and on work clothing.
