C. M. Evans, regional FSA drector, | explains that such loans are made only to those farmers with at least: one source of cash income besides cotton. Owher-tenant cooperation often | cannot provide the necessary im- provements, so the FSA worked out the portable farm idea. Now the ten- ant whe'd like to raise chickens, for instance, in order to be eligible for a loan need not be afraid of leaving his coop behind when he' moves. The average cost of a portable home for 100 hens is less than $100. It can be dismantled and ro-axsemblud! with little trouble. | The portable garden plot- consists of fertile soil within a frame about 18 inches deep, four or five feet wide and as long as desired. Tin cans or tile are used for sub- irrigation. If the farmer moves, he loads the whole thing on a truck— even in mid-season with vegetables flourishing—and hauls it with him. The FSA estimates a portable garden 20 feet long and five feet wide, properly nurtured, will supply the vegetables for the average fam- ily the year 'round. The fences are electrified and usually consjst of one wire fastened iat intervals to stakes. Electricity is} supplied by a wind-charger, an auto mobile battery or a reduced line cur- rent. Cost is a few dollars for home- imade outfits; up to $25 for factory | made. | e, | ON WAY 'INSIDE J. P.

Hollywood Sights And Saiends Oy Robbia Coses HOLLYWOOD, Cal., May 9.—Careers are blossoming quickly in this tropic spring weather. You've heard about Mary Healy, the New Orleans girl who's getting the breaks at 20th—playing second fiddle only to Sonja Henie in “Second Fiddle” and a lead in Irving Berlin's “Say It With Music” - She’s pretty, can sing, and act besides. Also Brenda Joyce, local college girl born in Kansas City but a long-time resident—she’s playing Fern (second to Myrna Loy) in “The Rain Came” ., , And Linda Darnell (Monetta Darnell to hometown Dallas, Texas) who was too young a year ago, but at 16 is a click with a role in “Hotel For Women” . . . . And Dorris Bowdon . (new monicker Judith Dickens) from Baton Rouge, La., who's been in the Jones Family and now has a role in “Young Mr. Lincoln” . . . . Helen Gilbert, the blonde ’cellist, who lost no time either . « . Signed Jess than a month ago (at Metro) she went to the studio one day and suddenly was given THE girl’s role in “Andy Hardy Gets Spring Fever” . . . She's the schoolteacher object of Mickey Rooney’s adolescent affections—and with a new coiffure she looks like a movie queen already, and acts with poise to spare . How come? ... “It's because I'm so frightened,” she says, “I can‘t feel anything any more—I'm numb!” The why of all this? New faces, they say, and freshness . . . But maybe, too, they're getting ready for that war threat, which if it develops, means movies would have to be made more cheaply . . Stars, old stars, come high. . . . Speaking of new faces, I've come across an old Warner list (1937) of “younger players with brilliant prospects”: Gloria Dickson, Ann Sheridan, Jane Bryan, Dick Foran, Wayne Morris, Mary Maguire, Jane Wyman, Linda Perry, Lana Turner, Bonita Gran- Sthings—— ' are necessary for full dining enjoyment: Good food, aiten: tive, courfeous service and pleasant surroundings-you'll find all 3in greatesi measure at— 2 "4 PERCY’S ville, John Litel, Patric Knowles, B'everly Roberts‘_ June, Travis. .
