into existence by the ^GOvernment for
this purpose.
The estate is a cleared' area, at
present only 150 acres in extent, but
capable of indefinite expansion. It. is
located seven miles from Cardiff
Docks, with which there is excellent
road and reilwa,y communication. Raw
materials can therefore be brought in
and finished, manufactures can be ex-
ported at very low cast. Gas, water,

And so their minds, and, their work,
stay young.
You're as old as yon halk.
Ten years ago Simon Bolivar, which
is not Ids tame, was as big a name
as any of those above. His tales
were in the same magazines as theirs,
his books sold as widely as theirs.
He was fifty. Ten years ago at was
Lan to talk to Simon. He was full ef
new ideas for work, he was full of
new wbiaasies, be had the newest
jokes.
But Simon., about that time, with-
drew from the busy marts of trade to
a small New England town. Some
writers can do that and yet keep in
the tide of things. But Simcn was
not of these. And when he did come
back, now and again, Whete the high
tides were flowingo-he couldn't seem
to ride them.
To abandou the metaphor, Simon
had gone dull. He had no new talk.
He 'had no new jokes. More and
more be chose as corapanione in his
club the old fusty -wits -not always
so old,'in years, either -who would
join him in, singing old songs and dis-
cussing old Plays, old time pugilists,
old time beauties, old time football
tea,mst.
And so Simon talked himself older
and older. He became e group-dis-
Pelv.er, one of those prosy recollectors
who cense any group @icy join to melt
away. He "dated." And atis work
began to date, too.
But instead of trying to modernize
his technique -he had been artist en-
ough to do it -he barked back to the
golden days when he was modern,
and cursed tod.ay's editors and read-
ers for not wanting what he had pur-
veyed in the past
Sinaon's name petered out of the
magazines and off the bookseller's
lists. He became a sad, pathetic 'fig-
ure of failure -not so old in appear-
ance, but old, old, old in mind, and
ever older and more boreseme in
speeoh.
Simon is dead now -he died at 60.
He might have di,e^d at sixty anyhow,
but he need not have been mentally
senile for eigiht of those last years.
He talked himself into intellectual
obsolescence because he spoke too
much from memory.
Watch your conversation. Have a
young tongue. Take an inventory of
your favorite stories. See how many
of them you have been telling for
the last five years. If more than half
of them are that old, file them away
until somebody asks for them, which
won't be often and get a new static.
Also -watch your phrases. Cut out
the hackneyed cliches, the time -warn
slang, the old loves.
Learn what's going on in the world
now -and talk about that. And don't
let every event thane being discussed
remindyou of One that happened in,

The nutritious quality, of alfalfa hay
is recognized and highly prized as a
means of increasing prteluetion witui
all kinds of live stock. In addition, it
is one of the most productive of hay
crops. in those ,parts of the country
which enjoy a long enough growing

Fried Chicken For the' Picnic
Cut young chicken in. pieces.. Wipe
off with a clean cloth moistened in
water, dip in very salty milk, coat
'quickly with flour. Cook 14 pound
diced fat salt pork until crisp, add
the chicken and fry until tender.
Bring to the picnic either cold or
keep it hot in a Dutch oven or

kept either very cold or hot - it
should never be allowed to remain in
a lukewarm condition for a length of
,time.
Gipsy Cookies
Sandwiches For the Picnic
Sandwiches are an important itern
in most picnic lunches, and nothing
makes a more attractive 'appearance
than a tray of the tiny one -layer kind
in tempting assortment. For them,
use white bread, brown bread, whole-
wheat, nut or chocolate bread, and
slice it wafer thin. Whip the butter
to a creamy froth so that it may be
brushed lightly over the surface, then,
cut into triangles, discs, ovals, fingers,
hearts, leaves or any sthapes you de-
sire. Use for the filling or toppingS
mixtures that are savory, sweet or
spicy -as yoe. wish. Use cheese, fruit
or a mixture.
An Appetizing Sandwich Filling
Have eome slices of bread spread
with butter. On one-half put flakes
of canned crab meat seasoned with
mayonnaise. On the other half put
thin Slices of the white meat of either
roast or boiled chicken, and some
small leaves of crisp lettuce. Fut the
two together and trim into shape.

You're As 01
As You Talk
(By Berton Braley- in "Your Life")
You're not old until yoe talk old -
so keep a young tongue nn your head.
Age and experience are a valuable
background, but don't push that back-
ground in front of your conversation.
Reminisce in your autobiography -
if you can get anybody to publish it
-nut renieraber, the recollector is a
terrible old bare at forty, and stows
distinct evidences of doddering by
the time Ihe's fifty.
Watch yourstelf for ,the symptome.
And while this warning is chiefly di-
rected at men in, or approaching,
middle age, a lot of Men in their mid-
dle thirties had better' be eir guard
against incipient arterlosclerorsii of
their conversational powers.
You're as old as you talk, and
you're on yonr way to senility when
more than twenty-five per ,cent. of
your remarks are concerned with Past
performances "rather than current ac-
tion and future plans.
Talk eoung if you want to keep
young.
Which is another" Way of saying
that ycerve got to stay in step with
the intellectual procession.
That isn't, of eoerse, wholly a mat-
ter of conversation, but a definite en-
deavor to keep your talkfree ef
fnstinese and "Thosteweres;flie-ilayen-
nese will serve also to keep your Mind
clear of the cobwebs and mildew of
