PICTURE HANGING POINTS 
One good picture is not only better 
than many poor ones, but is likely to 
be better than many good ones, hung 
helterskelter. The Japanese hang but 
one picture on the wall at one time, and 
so enjoy it without being distracted by 
others near it. 
The picture should seem to be part of 
the wall, not merely unconnected orna¬ 
mentation, the home specialists at Cor¬ 
nell point out. The size and shape of 
the wall should be considered; if the 
space is long and narrow, a long and 
narrow picture should be used. It is 
hard to find a satisfactory place for a 
round or oval picture. A square frame 
is always easier to place. 
A large picture needs to he hung in 
relation to the furniture; a table, chair 
or desk should be placed against the 
wall under it. Pictures should be hung 
flat against the wall and suspended 
from the moulding by two vertical 
wires. 
The frame is supposed to relate the 
picture to the wall. Gilt frames al¬ 
most never do this, but rather attract 
attention themselves, unless they have 
been much toned down. A frame 
slightly tinted in colors which repeat 
the colors of the picture and also of the 
wall is the best. 
In general, the frame should be as 
dark as the middle tone in the picture. 
Most pictures are now framed without 
mats. If a mat is desired, black or 
white should never be used; it should 
match the tone of the frame and of the 
picture. 
A SMART DRESS TO BUY 
The fashion editor found this dress 
of mercerized cotton pongee and be¬ 
cause it was good wearing material, 
made on simple lines and in a style be¬ 
coming to all women, she chose it for 
American Agriculturist readers. The 
dress has diamond motifs embroid¬ 
ered in the popular bright colors. The 
neck and slashed kimona sleeves are 
piped, and the full length panels blouse 
at waist and skirt hem. 
The dress is R. W. 21. It comes in 
natural tan or Copenhagen blue and in 
sizes from 34 to 46 inches bust measure 
(state waist and hip measure also). 
Price, postage prepaid, $5.98. 
Anything bought through the fashion 
editor may be returned to the store 
from which it comes for an exchange 
or refund if not satisfactory. Make out 
checks or money orders to the Ameri¬ 
can Agriculturist. Be sure to give full 
name, address, size and color desired. 
A HANDY KITCHEN DEVICE 
The most pleasing and helpful thing 
in my kitchen is an enamel mixing bowl. 
It is so much lighter than a crockery 
ware bowl. One. of mine is white 
enamel and holds six quarts, so that 
is ample for large amounts. The other 
is a thrCe quart bowl. There is only 
one trouble with them—they are always 
on hand at dishwashing time, being 
used so often! These bowls can be had 
in many different sizes.—D. W. 
Gtoeathoii^ 
to eidvettisin^ 
Baby chicks have become trav¬ 
elers. And all because of adver¬ 
tising. 
In the old days, when a baby 
chick was hatched he spent his 
life right where he first saw the 
light of day, or anyway within 
a few miles of the place. But 
like most everything else, the 
life of baby chicks has changed 
and broadened with advancing 
times and methods. And the 
baby chicks of to-day can thank 
advertising for an opportunity 
to see something of their native 
country. 
The chick horn in Ohio is just 
as likely as not to spend its ad¬ 
vancing years in New York or 
Massachusetts and vice versa. In 
fact he can go any place within 
a 72-hours ride of his birthplace, 
H® *!• ^ ^ 
Take a good look at the last 
pages of the American Agricul¬ 
turist. What do you see? May¬ 
be thirty advertisements of baby 
chicks. Advertisements from 
every part of the country east of 
the Mississippi. Probably your 
fiock of hens is made up of chick¬ 
ens hatched as far as a thousand 
miles from your home. 
So certainly advertising plays 
an important part in the lives 
of baby chicks. And a rapidly 
increasing part. In the last five 
years poultry — and especially 
baby chick — advertising has 
grown by leaps and bounds. Old 
copies of the American Agricul¬ 
turist show only a very few poul¬ 
try ads. Now they cover over a 
whole page. And the number is 
increasing every month. The 
poultry raiser’s market has 
broadened from his local vicinity 
to over half of the country. He 
can raise his chicks in Maine 
and sell them in Florida. And 
advertising has made this pos¬ 
sible. 
sjs * * :i: 
Advertising has broken down 
the walls of distance. It has 
made neighbors of the rice 
growers of Mississippi and the 
potato growers of Maine. They 
shake hands through the col¬ 
umns of the Alnerican Agricul¬ 
turist and other papers, profiting 
by their ploseness and friendship. 
^ ^ 
Every little advertisement is 
equal to a whole army of mes¬ 
senger boys. One advertisement 
in the American Agriculturist is 
120,000 messengers going to 
120,000 different homes to take 
its message to the readers. And 
when you can send your message 
to so many people at the same 
time, you’re bound to get results. 
:{i; ^ H® ^ ^ ^ 
If advertising plays such an 
important part in the lives of 
poultry — and especially baby 
chicks—then think of what ad¬ 
vertising means to us human be¬ 
ings. Just as much more at least 
as we are more important than 
baby chicke. And just as adver¬ 
tising has given baby chicks a 
chance to travel and see the 
country, so has it given the 
farmer a chance to take an in¬ 
creasingly active and profitable 
part in affairs of the whole na¬ 
tion. So who can deny that it 
. pays to give a thought to adver¬ 
tising?
