Now his well-turned ankles, ex posed by shorter trousers and low er-cut shoes and glorified by daz zling socks, rate whistles from the girls. Socks for spring and summer are being turned out in every con ceivable color, pattern and knit? all for the greater glory of the male ankle. Some of the untraditional colors that will be plainly visible this summer include: helio, shrimp, burnt orange, flamingo, lemon, lime and champagne pink. It seems the men are buying them, too. Since the first con servative male was won over to a pink shirt, all bars seem to be down. The vivid tints are used in vari ous ways ? as a discreet accent against a neutral background, or as a traffic-stopping blaze of color in a bold pattern. Yarns used in the new socks cover a wide range?dacaon, nylhn, wool-and-nylon, orlon - and - nylon, as well as the more familiar wool, cotton and silk. Other new wrinkles in the sock lineup are the stretch-to-fit sock and the built-in garter support. I Advance Payoff LONDON, Ky. (API ? This ad paid off?in advance.

Grass oilers the only hope for saving the vast dust-bowl area of the nation, says Prof. Milton E. Parker, director of food engineering at Illinois In stitute of Technology. He predicts grass will be a top U. S. crop for 1935 because of changes in the gov ernment price-support program. He gives these reasons for praising the practice: It will prepare much of the country's acreage for future de mands of an expanding population. Wartime demands and peacetime price-supports have caused intensi fied farming which has come "peri ! lously close" to exhausting much of the soil. Grass returns vital organic matter to the soil. On ! watersheds, it helps control floods and prevents silt from ruining hy droelectric dams. It controls eros ion. It holds soil where winds can't grab it. The farmer can reap sub stantial profits from grass by rais ing cattle. In The Drink? GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (API?
