Muscatine, la., May 3 -.U.R)
Mrs. Floyd Holladay called off
her open house for curious vis

the arm off her "perpetual" rock
ing chair.
But she said the strange old
chair, minus the arm, kept on
rocking all by itself.
The Holladays have been hold
ing open house for the curious
and the skeptical ever since the
word got around about the
chair's peculiar antics.
But Mrs. Holladay said the
broken arm was too much,
"That's enough," she said. "No
more open house for us."

REALTY VIEWS
Moit experienced people follow. n
old saying when it comes to invest
their life's savings: "Don't put all
your eggs in one
fTfc basket." They
f J scatter their In-

f . v accounts and
rejt estate.
But one of the
wealthiest men
our nation ever
Frd Ches
produced attacked that philosophy.
Said Andrew Carnegie: "Put all your
money in one basket then watch
that basket!"
That is sound advice. Scattering
your investments leads to low returns.
But putting it all in a good sized
property frequently results in high
earnings. Also it is probably safer too
since it Is a la roe enough invest
ment so that you don't nea'ect it.
Yes, you should consider real

Elm Spray for Aphis
Advised by Agent
Now is a good time for home
owners to spray their elm trees
for aphis control. County Agent
C. B. Cordy said today. If the
trees are not sprayed before the
leaves begin to curl, the peots
will escape the black leaf 40 that
should be used for effective con
trol. If the aphis are left unsprayed
they will cause 'eav- to curl
and turn red and are responsi
ble for the drip of "hr from
elm trees during the summer.
