Singleton, agriculture teacher in the Chapel Hill school by 24 Or ange county farmers, show that the owner of 100 liens can earn a profit of $25 a month from the sale of eggs and chickens. “Eleven of the men who send me regular reports have aver aged as high as that,” says Mr. Singleton. “Some have not a ehieved that figure yet, but this is because they have not had their flocks long or because they j have not yet completed the ar rangements they are making for he housing and feeding.” Julius Andrews (160 hens) earned s3s3,'above expenses, in the 9 months ending July 31; Malcolm Blackwood (140 hens) $436; John Hawkins (102 hens) $238; Walter Hawkins (96 hens) $243; Fred Lloyd (175 hens) $346; Charlie Stanford (100 hens) $229; S.

These records are evidence of real progress,” says Mr. Single ton. “The farmers are learning that with care and good feeding they can earn a substantial in come through all the seasons of the year. An encouraging fea ture of the situation is that there is practically an unlimited mar ket right here near at home. Hundreds of dozens of eggs are being shipped into Chapel Hill overy mpnth, and thousands of dozens into Durham. The con sumers of these eggs that' come from a* distance are more than willing to take, instead, the eggs produced nearby—if they can just get enough of them. “For example, there is the University eating house, Swain Hall. Its manager, Mr. Harmon, is prepared to buy many times the quantity of eggs now offered to him by the farmers around Chapel Hill.” Advertising Pays New York. —The manufacture of a temperance beverage named* after a neighbor of Uncle Sam has found ad vertising to be an Aladdin’s lamp.

THE CHATHAM RECORD COWBOY COSTUME IS MADE FOR SERVICE Rangers Just Hard Workers Earning Their Living. Denver, fiction tales of chaparajosed cow “waddies” galloping recklessly across the prairies, or shooting the buttons from some east erner’s spats at 70 paces with notched “455” have drawn a protest from Charles D. Frost, a rancher of Boze man, Mont. Frost asserts that westerners are not gangs of noisy imbeciles who go on dress parade to please tourists, nor does their sole occupation consist of hanging bad men. He pictured the cowboy as merely an ordinary human being, trailing his filigreed spurs übout the ranehyard at the most menial of tasks. Not Comic Costume. , Even the cowboy’s dress is not a costume for a burlesque show, Frost s. yj, but an apparel designed to meet conditions with which the cyw-punch er has to cope. The chaps keep the brush from scratching the legs of the riders; the “shootiu’ irons” are used for predatory animals and to protect their herds; the neckerchief origl -1 nated on the old Texas trails as a i protection from dust. It originally was worn across the nose, being knotted loosely about the neck when not in use. The high-heeled boots keep the foot of the rider from slip ping tiirough tlie stirrup aboard a snorting mount. The spurs are as necessary as a wrench to a present ! day mechanic, while the ten-gallon hats are a protection against sun and storm. “The 1926 model cowboy,” Frost de clares, “spends, comparatively little time hanging horse thieves, and even less time committing burglary and highway robbery, which fail to thrive, on the range. “The cowboy of today does not com pel English lords to dance by shoot ing at their feet, nor does he con spire to commit murder by inducing a ’tenderfoot’ to, mount a i.<> ariously bad horse. Furthermore, tLo puncher does not wear ids sombrero, spurs and gun for the edification of tb.* tourist ‘dudes’ and ‘dudeens,’ but employs them in ills wort the same as a deep seu Uher wears a helmet. He’s a Hard Worker./ “When the miles of barbed-wire fences need repairing, some one must do the work. It Is up to the cowboy, and lie sallies forth with staples, pliers and wire stretcher instead of six-gun. Inlaid spurs and glistening conchas trimmed chaps. The 1926 cowboy also shoes ids own horses, keeps the wind mill or gasoline engine pump working, or puts hay up in the summer and feeds it to the cattle during the win ter. He brunds colts and calves; gathers and drives beef to the rail roads, loads it into stock cars, goes to the city with the shipment, and attempts to raise doggies by hand.” French Chemist Produces Forms That Resemble Life Paris.—Making lifeless chemicals act. as though they- were alive, is the feat reported here by M. Herrera, a well-known French chem ist. M. Herrera made a solution of 14 parts of caustic soda and 1 part rhodamine in 100 parts of water, and poured a. few drops of this Into a sec ond solution consisting of 1 part ©live oil and 2 of gasoline. . The drops staged a close imitation of the behavior of amoebae, one of the simplest of .animal forma. They di vided, moved übout slowly, elongated, formed vacuoles within themselves and constantly changed their shape. Under proper conditions they kept up this performance for as long as an hour. M. Herrera made no claim that the drops had any properties of life. The phenomenon, lie said, is probably due to diffusion .currents, changes In os motic pressure, surface tension and other physical and chemical influ ences. Italian Culture Home Erected by Columbia New York. —A bit of old Italy, as pure in form as a Medici palace, soon will stand at the crest of Morningside heights. The cornerstone of the Casa Ital iana, controlled by but removed from Columbia university, was laid recently. Paintings, art objects and specimens ©f the work of Italian artists at the richest periods of history will grace the interior of the structure. All corners of the world will be rep resented, for gifts have been promised from persons wherever there are Ital ians. King Victor Emanuel heads the list of contributors with two paintings. The dedication exercises in the fall will take the form of commemorating Saint Francis, the Friar of Assissi, whose order, the Franciscans, was es tablished in Italy and became respon sible for much of the artistic progress of the country.
