22 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, MARCH 21, 1936 STARTLING PRINTS HEADLINE FABRIC FASHION PICTURE There's a Design That Is Just The Type to Suit Every- one’s Fancy By MARIAN YOUNG (NEA Service Staff Correspondent) New York.—Printed silks headline the fabric story for daytime and eve- ning. Due to unusual color combina- tions and original grouping and spac- ing ideas, this is a season when a new printed dress actually looks new and not like a carry-over. Miniature prints take the place of the unbiquitous dotted themes. These show tiny animals, objects and flow- ers sprinkled, dot fashion, over navy, brown, black, green, red, yellow and violet backgrounds. Ainmal prints are important. Du- charne features a variety of them. Jean Arno uses a rabbit’ print in a silk suit. Jodelle endorses animal shields. ‘Object Prints Fascinating Among the most fascinating object prints are bowknots, tiny flower pots, minute flowers, fruits, keys, chessmen and various sports motifs. Colcombet shows Irish green top hats printed on beige silk crepe de chine. In the picture prints, life, landscape and still life objects are used. Du- charne shows rings of dancing Brit- tany peasants, a theme used by Jo- delle in her spring collection. Schia- Pparelli shows ianterns, buttons and envelopes with colored seal prints. There are, of course, prints which show American landscapes, newspa- per copy and musical notes. The fly- ing horse motif. launched by Schia- parelli, is prevalent. Florals in Profusion Fruit and vegetable designs are fea- tured, too. Apples, cherries, grapes and plums appear on silk back- grounds. Radishes, carrots, beets, green and red peppers, mushrooms and tiny ears of corn make arresting patterns. Floral prints—always smart and elways with us—are large for after- noon and evening and infinitesimal for daytime. Printed silk crepes and éatins, in large motifs, often are veiled with marquisite for evening wear. Incidentally, printed satin looms quite large in the Eastern fashion picture. Twin prints are good. Both florals and geometrics are used for these. The water color print is endorsed at home and abroad. In one of these, near tones of a single color are em- ployed to give a shaded effect with considerable depth and form. Siamp prints are shown in taffetas, silk nets and chiffons. The design is stamped on and usually has a high lustre which resembles patent leather. Dots, commas, squares and dia- monds are stamped in white, black or color. Tiny airplanes in white ap- pear on a black taffeta surface. A. C. Experimenting With Soybean Foods Fargo, N. D., Mar. 21.—Cooking tests of soybeans are being made by the home economics department at the North Dakota Agricultural college. Some excellent results were obtained in recent tests conducted by Dorothy Berrigan, assistant in home eco- nomics research. She has been us- ing table varieties of soybeans which the horticultural department at the college has found adapted for pro- duction in North Dakota, differ from navy beans in that they contain very little starch but are high in protein and fats. Soybeans furnish a protein equal in quality to that found in meat, milk beans have @ nutty flavor that is quite delicious and a more pronounc- ed flavor than that of navy beans. green soybeans boiled in the pods for about three minutes. Salads, soups, baked dishes and meatless loaves can be made from the soybeans, according to Miss Berri- gan, An air-conditioning unit for cars and busses, operated by the vehicle's motor, will soon be placed on the Graham Puts Superc h It ts said tu nearly a fourth greater economy. arger in Low-Price Field For the first time in automotive history, supercharged motor care are available in the lower price class, with the introduction of the Graham Supercharger Six, shown above. Uiree types of sixes Graham has designed for 1936. This is one of the develop a third more power at GRAHAM MAKES Device Supplies Pressure in Feeding Fuel to Cylinders, Increasing Power Styled with refreshing new beauty, the new Graham Supercharger, which Graham introduces to the lower price field for the first time in automotive history, promises to set not only new performance standards but also a dis- tinctive style note for 1936, according to style authorities in the industry. The Graham supercharger will be exhibited at the Bismarck automobilz and style show in the World War Memorial building next Tharsday, Friday and Saturday, March 26-28, by the Grand Service Garage, Bismarck dealer. Rakish Body Lines Long, low rakish lines in the Super- charger are accomplished by an en- tirely new body design of all steel construction, including a new rumble- Proof steel roof. The entire car ex- hibits the newest aeronautical influ- ence in clean-cut design. In an unusual and highly effective treatment, the designers have achieved individuality in distinction and style by bringing a sweeping band of body color vertically through the center of the radiator grille. The impression conveyed by this original departure in styling is one of power, grace and fleetness. Behind the two chromium grille radiator panels are lateral bands of color that contrast strikingly with the center band of body color and add life and sparkle to the frontal appear- ance of the car. The Graham supercharger, which was designed and perfected in the laboratories of Graham-Paige Motors corporation by company engineers, is & device which supplies power, or Pressure, to the feeding of the fuel mixture into the cylinders. It is of centrifugal type, noiseless in opera- tion, and because of simplicity in construction will outlast the life of a car. As much a part of the engine as the lubrication or cooling systems, Graham superchargers have already delivered over forty million miles of service. Whirled Through Vanes Mounted on the side of the engine between the down-draft carburetor and intake manifold, the Graham supercharger takes the mixture from the carburetor and whirls it through @ Since the Angeles-Yosemite Economy Run, many proud claimed many cars as winners in their classes. SUPERCHARGER ITS MAIN SELLING FEATURE the swiftly moving vanes of the super- charger rotor, which atomizes the mixture into a fine spray and then forces this uniformly mixed and atomized charge evenly into each cyl- inder. This enables the engine to de- velop 32 per cent more power with 1 per cent greater economy. Increased reserve power, which pro- vides the same degree of acceleration at seventy miles an hour as at forty miles an hour in ordinary cars, ‘is claimed for the new Graham super- charger with greatly increased econ- omy at the higher road speeds. 4-H Members Active In Aiding Seed Work Plantings of small plats of shrivel- ed small grain seed to demonstrate the value of special handling and treatment of the seed supply this sea- son are being prepared by many of the state’s 4-H pure seed clubs. The seedlings produced from the correctly handled seed in comparison with the plants from seed not check- ed for germination, not heavily grad- ed and cleaned, and not treated with the ‘recommended ceresan disinfect- ant show sharply the advantages to be gained by careful germination tests, heavy cleaning and grading, and disinfecting. The plantings are being displayed by the club members at their group meetings to which parents and neighbors are invited, and at prominent locations where other farmers can observe the results. Besides this important service to the agriculture of their communities, hundreds of acres of pure seed of hard wheat, durum, corn, barley, flax, potatoes and other crops will be planted by the 4-H clubs. The seed thus produced will aid materially in developing local seed supplies of these crops, If leaking of water into the cyl- inders of the motor is suspected, the spark plugs should be removed in quick suceession after running the engine until it is hot. Steam escap- He om any cylinder will indicate a leak, One west coast oil company has is- sued an order to its station attend- ants banning the sale of gasoline to persons under the influence of in- toxicants. State Main Source of Crested Wheatgrass Crested wheatgrass seed distributed by the Dickinson substation of the North Dakota Agricultural experi- ment station now accounts for more than half the production of this grass in the United States, according to LeRoy Moomaw, superintendent of the substation. “Since 1920 the Dickinson substa- tion has increased and distributed more crested wheatgrass seed than any other experiment station in the country,” he stated. “Much of this seed has been used in the state but substantial shipments have also gone into other states.” Recent estimates of the U. 8. de- partment of agriculture place the to- tal seed supply of crested wheatgrass in the United States at 500,000 pounds. In Stark county,’where the station is located, the 1935 production was around 200,000 pounds. North Dakota produced about 250,000 pounds. Other states in which the grass is grown are South Dakota, Montana, Oregon, Washington, Ne- braska, Colorado and- Wyoming. Barnes 4-H Members Protect Game Birds Game birds in Barnes county found 4-H club boys and girls to be their proverbial “friend in need” in recent months. The lives of scores of pheasants, partridges and prairie chickens were saved the past winter by the interest the club members showed in seeing that feed was made available to the starving birds. In a recent report submitted by the youngsters to T. X. Calnan, Barnes county agent, the full extent of the conservation activities of the clubs was evident. Members in all parts of the county were alert to see that the wild life fowl were cared for | However, Ceresan, a dry disinfectant, Farmers Warned of Formaldehyde Injury Injurious effects on light weight shriveled seed wheat have been noted by the North Dakota Agricultural ex- periment station in tests conducted with the standard formaldehyde solu- tion as a seed disinfectant. As a re- sult farmers are being cautioned in the use of formaldehyde. Young wheat plants produced from light weight seed treated with for- maldehyde were noticeably less able to push through the soil, and were lighter in weight and less vigorous than plants from untreated seed. resulted in a distinct improvement in the plants produced, the seedlings being better able to push through the soil and the young plants were heavier and more vigorous, “Although formaldehyde is an ex- cellent disinfectant for smut, it often is injurious to seed,” says W. E. Brentzel, plant disease specialist of the experiment station. “Growers who use it to treat wheat have learn- ed that it is necessary to sow more seed per acre, not only to offset swelling from the wet treatment, but also to make up for injured seeds.” os i Motor-isms i Lafayette enters it: in All two adults in the rumble, s third year with roomier, stronger, speedicr models in six different designs.

Tt is estimated that used car sales in 1935 averaged 45 per cent of new car volume. Running off the edge of the road/| is one of the most common causes of serious accidents. Standardized highway markers and traffic signs have been adopted by the Illinois division of highways. Careful attention should be given the breaker points to facilitate start- ing in cold weather. , Along with other large cities, St. Louis now paints large crosses on | streets where traffic fatalities have) occurred. Lead corrosion guards now on the| market prolong the life of the bat-| tery when installed on terminal posts. Tests have shown that carbon- monoxide gas is present in measur- able quantities in six of every 10) cars now on the road. Increased demand for their prod- ucts is reported by manufacturers of small articles used in automobile pro-; duction. It is estimated that automobile sales in rural districts in 1935 were 40 per cent greater than in the pre- vious year. English pedestrians walking along the highway in the dark now weat It is estimated that a person’s chance of being killed in an automo- bile accident is four times as great at night as during the day. A new battery manufactured in England is said to be the first of the alkaline type that is capable of giving the high currents necessary for start- ing Diesel engines. The chassis of a car exhibited at the last British auomobile show was built over the wheels, the extra width permiting four persons to be seated comfortably in front. A new device attached between the exhaust manifold and the exhaust pipe may now be used for raising the temperature of the hot water heater in an automobile. In Sheffield, Eng., drivers need 9 jealendar to observe parking regula- tions, which specify use of one side of the street on even dates; and of the other side, on odd dates. Motorists traveling in Palestine, where service facilities are meager are required by law to carry a jack to avoid tying up traffic should a tire become flat. The Harvard Flying club, organ- ized in 1910, is though to be the old- est organization of its kind in the world, An increase of about 50 per cent has been recorded in total Diesel horse- power sold in 1935, over that of 1934. Recent engineering reports state that no serious trouble is indicated if @ car rumbles when accelerated, this white disks on their back to pick up and many birds were saved that oth- erwise would have starved. Aid in providing feed was given the clubs by the county Isaac Walton league. ‘Plans are now being developed for the planting of feed crops this spring to furnish feed and cover for the birds next winter. Throughout North Dakota 4-H club members have made themselves conspicuous the past winter by the work they have done to feed and pro- tect the game birds near their home. Passenger car production in 1935 is estimated at 3,400,000, a gain of 44.5 per cent over the previous year.

Motor tourists spend more than $90,000,000 annually in Florida. | It is claimed by automotive engi- neers that free wheeling reduces foul- ing of spark plugs. The choke control should be checked carefully if there is continual diffi- ‘culty in starting the car, The condenser may be defective if the ignition breaker points burn away rapidly. There are more fatal traffic acci- dents on Sunday than on any other |day of the week. Permanent license plates, fitted with annual “inserts” to be distributed yearly when motorists apply for regis- tration, will be introduced by Connec- ticut in March, 1937. A recent compilation of records shows that motor car manufacturers are using a smaller variety of tires in original equipment specifications than for years past. Gasoline motor fuel, exclusive of taxes, sold at an average retail price of 13.55 cents a gallon in 1935, as com- pared with an average of 13.64 cents in 1934. It is estimated that, since 1928, more than 52,000 lifts and hoists, used to facilitate lubrication of motor ve- hhicles, have been installed in filling stations throughout the United ‘States, The proper tool should be used in removing cylinder head bolts, or there is ‘possibility of breaking the end of & spark: plug. If the intake manifold is kept at winter running temperature, gum de- posits in the intake valves can be de- creased. Foreign markets absorbed 13.6 pe: cent of all motor vehicles produced in the United States last year. _ Approximately 50,000,090 automobile tires were manufactured in the United States last year. Tt is estimated that 82 per cent of for-hire trucking enterprises in this country engage only one employe. Unless the engine is started slowly, the pistons and the cylinders will not expand €évenly, causing unneces- sary wear on the motor. A new winshield wiper employs an electrically heated blade which re- quires only two mintes to reach a temperature high enough to clear ‘away snow and ice. A new metal shield for the rear view mirror eliminates glare caused by headlights from cars behind. Tests conducted by the Minnesota Public Safety Committee indicate that even an expert driver requires more than a half second before applying his brakes when a potential danger be- comes visible, A large number of motorcycles hav- ing two pistons in each cylinder block are being used in Austria. Black with orange or yellow will be the most popular color combination used on 1936 license plates. It will appear on tags issued by nine states ‘and three Canadian provinces. Two intersections near Chicago are lighted by sodium vapor lamps which give off an orange, non-glaring light. This is the first step taken in this district toward reducing accidents caused by insufficient highway illum- ination.
