Ames Iowa May 22 The number of young chicks on farms in the west north central states including Iowa set a new May 1 record with a percent rise from the previous year despite low egg prices. Nationally May 1 chick totals were 1.4 percent below last year but 33 percent above the 10 year May 1 average. Deficit areas showed declines with largest 16 percent in western states. Northern Atlantic down 10 percent southern Atlantic six percent and south central nine percent. Ralph L Baker Iowa State College projects the 1944 hatch lighter than last year and expects June hatch to be a fraction of 1938. Baker notes 1944 hatch may approach 1942 total.

Sleeve styles for concealing arm size in women
Raglan sleeves help hide large arms while short sleeves brighten the silhouette poorly. Just below the elbow and long sleeves fit snugly above the wrist for a more flattering look. Sheer fabrics should be avoided as they expose arm shape. Short sleeves can widen slim arms if not overly loose, while three quarter and near elbow lengths create the illusion of more arm width.
