What has fishing to do with amateur photog raphy? Just this.

War' , has been de clared against; the angler who per sists in telling about the "big one that got away " The law ot the Izaak Walton League at Chicago regarding mis phase ot the art of fishing is very brief and to the point Here it is. "Get your fish, take hit picture or keep quiet, r , - '', No one in particular is being ac cused ot telling little White lies about the "whopper" that got away but Chicago's Izaak Walton League law should be recognized through out the . country. The old adage about the cake might be revised to "Yon can have your fish and eat It too" for although the fish may end its days in frying pan or broiler, a picture of it win lire forever. There Is one thing to remember in taking snapshots on fishing trips. Just as yon use different kinds of bait for matching various species ot fish so you must vary your methods of taking snapshots under different lighting conditions. ; Suppose, for Instance; that yott are leap sea fishing or out In the-mlddle M a lake under the glare of a mid July sun.

This setting of the diaphragm and shutter will serve two purposes. First you will have the proper exposure and secondsat 1100 of a second you will stop the action as your lucky angler friend pulls the fish out ot the water and into the boat -: If you have a box type camera' use the second stop opening. In snap ping the picture with this type' of camera you will get the best results , it you wait until the fish is safely in ' the boat and then snap the picture after the catch and when your sub- -Ject is not in motion. Let me caution you. however. against a common error. Don't for get to set your camera for distance ' if it Is ot the focusing type. It you have a fixed focus oamera don't get closer to your subject than about eight feet unless you use a portrait attachment Now suppose you are fishing on a river where the trees obstruct much of the light Snapshooting under such conditions requires a dlf-. ferent technic. Unless you have a camera with an .. lens or faster you had better forget about fast ac tion pictures and confine your at ; forts to taking your subjects when : not In rapid motion. - - t ; If you have a box type c&mefil you should open It to sv large stop and with the average folding camera open the diaphragm to J or Ml and set ue shutter speed at 136 ot a sec ond.

Where birds show; signs of being diseased take them from the flock at once as these birds seldom make satisfactory recovery. - Check over all causes for the trouble such as over-crowding,; parasitic infesta tion, unbalanced diet, and poor ven tilation and make corrections. This will eliminate the cause and the flock will make rapid recovery f 't ' v Question; ' How shall I select fruit for my first exhibit at the fair? - Answer r The necessary essentials in selecting fruit is to see that it is free from any blemish; has the typi cal color for the kind; is true to size and shape for the variety, and, that all specimens ' are uniform. Be sure that the proper number of each kind of fruit is selected. This number va ries with .different fairs or associa tions and the catalogue must be studied for the correct number. Make the exhibit as neat and as attractive as possible with contrasting 11 colors between fruit and container." .Quality fruit has been given . a low -score many times due to poor arrangement Question: Why da I have to pay 46 cents a pound for sirloin steak when cattle are selling at 11 cents a pound ? : . . . ; ' : ; . . Answer: . The normal 1 dressing weight or carcass weight of ordinary cattle is from 50 to 60 nercent That means that the V beef actually costs about 22 cents after it is dressed. There is an additional shrinkage of about ten percent by the time it gets to the retail merchant ., This means that the whole animal actually cost the merchant about 24 cents. Of the entire animal there is 48 percent of low -price cuts, 14 percent of medium price cuts, and .27 percent of the porterhouse, sirloin, and round cuts. The remainder of the carcass Is hones, unsalable fats and trimmings. ' De ducting the- . cost , of the unsalable material , and allowing fpr the low price cuts is a partial cause for sir loin steaks selling for about 45 cents. i Jordan spent a few days last week with Mrs. P.
