Where medical aid Is not readily liable. The Importance of this cov ge of the open road, the Red Cross (holds, Is given sharper emphasis by the fact that there has been a 160 per .:ent Increase in rural traffic fatalities during the past twelve years. , t The project was initiated last year on. a national scale as a practical ap proach to the highway accident prob "lem.

Pictures may be Improved during enlarging by controlling tones with a "shadow brush." WHEN an advanced amateur or professional photographer . shows some of his beautiful salon pictures to a group of interested but uninitiated people, some ot them ' are sure to ask questions such as these :u f "How in the world do you get .'. those lovely, tones? How did. you " make this picture so dark. la this - : part and light In thatt How did you get the soft effect in this one? How did you get the light to shine so brightly oa the principal object and scarcely at all on the rest of the pic ture T How do you make these ob jects la the shadowy parts dim yet visible: aad objects in the light parts io stand out so dlstinctlyT My camera won't take pictures like -that" .. And this cryptic answer, is ".likely to be, "Neither will mine, exactly." "Then, how" do you get all these different gradations la . shadow tonesf These pictures are like paint ings. Do you touch up the negative with somethtngr And the aaswer will be, "No. I do not touch up the negative; I dodge the print" . , "Dodge the printT What do you mean d'odger " Then comes an explanation of a : method whereby a very ordinary picture, as recorded on the nega tive, may often be transformed into a work, ot art la the process of mak ing an enlarged print ot It "Dodg ing," in the slang of photography, means interrupting some of tlu light passing through the negative to the sensitised paper durin? t printing of the picture.

It is done by holding something opaque between the light source and the paper, such as a piece ot cardboard, In such a way aa to keep the light from striking a certain area for a certain portion of the time. Thus, that part which . continues to receive the full light will print darker than the part from which the light Js held back. In other words, the light is caused to "dodge" a certain area. Virtually, the shadow from the cardboard in the hands of the pho tographer is used as a paint brush. It serves to light the dark parts. In another way, a print is "dodged by using a piece of cardboard with a bole, in it; The hole lets through 4 peh-ftt of ght which is manipu lated over the surface of the paper and serves to darken the light parts. The Intelligent use of a "shadow brush" or "light brush" in this fash ion requires a preliminary study of the negative or a contact print as it would ordinarily register in order to discover where "dodging" would improve the picture. Often It means a number of trials before the result is satisfactory. Amateurs who do not enlarge their own negatives may suggest to their photo finisher how they, think a print may be Improved by "dodging," and ask him for a special Job on it Of course, the greater sat isfaction comes from doing this work yourself. But. that is the way many of the lovely effects we see In --ion photographs we obtained.

"If you do this, you have won half the battle," said C. P. Parrish, exten sion poultry specialist at State Col lege. The first consideration, he said, is to put the breeding birds in good condition so they will produce hatch ing eggs of the best quality. To hatch healthy, vigorous poults, the eggs must contain all the ele ments of food stuff3, except oxygen, that are necessary to nourish the embryo during the 28-day incubation period. Therefore, Parrish pointed out, breeding birds should be fed a good, well balanced ration. A good com mercial or home-mixed laying mash is recommended in the feed from January to June. The mash feeding should start about a month before the turkeys begin laying and should continue as long as eggs are desired for hatch ing purposes. The eggs should be gathered twice a day and if possible stored in a well ventilated place where the tempera ture remains between 50 and 60 de grees Fahrenheit. The eggs should be turned once a d, and should not be kept longer than 10 days or two weeks before being placed under a hen or in an ineuoator. Turkey eggs may be incubated by either chicken or turkey hens or by Will Rogers' Humorous Story By WILL ROGERS lUflSS SPENDFTS dad dldal XT like the looks of the gar thai come to him to talk about mar riage.
