Telephoto ) Court Shuns Argument Hearing - Selina Martin, who (UPI) "head and Louisiana's unsuccessfully challenged master" law, says if her creditors give her a chance she may be able to retain her home, even without help from the U.S. Supreme Court. "This is the end, we have legally exhausted our ends," she observed after the court refused to consider her argument that the laF, which allows a husband to administer a marrteu couple's community property in whatever way he wishes, deprived her of equal protection under the law. "I really think we're going to get together (with the credit union)," she said. "I owe about $7,000 and the house needs about $3,000 in repairs. I really think that as long as I pay the bills I will be able to keep the house." Mrs. Martin said the ruling reinforced the feeling that women in Louisiana still "are treated like animals." "I'm very digusted," she said. "It's an unreal situation in our country and in this world where women are really treated like animals. I feel like going to the veterinarian." The head and master provision allows the husband NEW ORLEANS to manage the couple's community property in whatever way he wishes, even if the wife is the primary breadwinner, as Mrs. Martin contends she was. Mrs. Martin claimed her estranged husband insisted on placing a second mortgage on their house to help his mother pay off debts. She said she told her husband she could not meet the payments, and the credit union sued when it received only $50 in pay- ments. Mrs. Martin failed to file a consent declaration with the mortgage papers that would have prevented her husband's unilateral action. "I think (the Supreme Court) honestly believes Louisiana has taken care of it's problem (by passing) the new equal management law scheduled to go into effect on Jan. 1, 1980," Mrs. Martin said. "I think my case got the Legislature to act. I don't think this same thing is ever going to happen again. But I'm left out in the cold." Dorothy Waldrop, Mrs. Martin's lawyer, said the court's rejection would force women to make sure their rights under the new equal management law are protected.

O'M M Ads There is a lot more to o really successful Garage Sale than you might think, but doing it right is simply a matter of orgoriiotion and attention to certain impor- tant details. To give you the ingredients of a successful sale, here are a few timely tips: What to sell Simply stated, anything that still has usability and some value is a good Garage Sole item. So first you must go through the storage areas of your base ment, attic or garage and determine what hos sales potential. Moke a list as you go. You should find such things as garden tools, old furniture, good clothes, toys, musical instruments, sewing machines and the like. You may be surprised at how many articles vou will have. Advertising Obviously the best way to advertise your sale is in the Want Ads. These ads are read avidly by people looking for bargains. You can keep your ad fairly short and still effective by listing the most appealing items separately and then lumping others in categories, such as furniture, clothes, toys, antiques, etc. on file at the office of the Parks and Recreation 351 West Department, Utah. Center, Provo, Provo City Corporation reserves the right to relect any or all bids or to waive any informalities in the bidding. Bids may be held by Provo City Corporation for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days from the date of the opening of the bids for the purpose of reviewing the bids and in- vestigating the qualifications of bidders, prior to awarding the contract. Pricing Everything must be priced to save both you and the customer valuable time. Start by listing all items by category on an inventory sheet. Antiques, for example, should be listed separately from other items. Clothing should be priced at approxthe original cost. Any clothes 10 to 15 years old may have imately nostalgic appeal and can be priced slightly higher. It might even be placed in the the antique category. Electrical appliances that work should bring original cost. Most prices on most articles will be influenced by condition of the items. A item can carry a good price. If you are involved in a double sale, which we will discuss next, be sure to color code your own prices. h good-lookin- g R. Glenn Olsen City Recorder in The Dai- No 2862 Published ly Herald October 5, 12, 1978 Double sale Many people have found it worthwhile to combine their Garage Sale with that of a friend or neighbor. This saves money on costs of advertising and provides a helping hand in arranging items, pricing them, dealing with customers, besides providing welcome companionship. Don't forget to keep separate inventories and different price color coding. Another important advantoge is a more impressive array of merchandise. Length of sale Most productive sales are those that run at least three days. This gives you the entire weekend in which to conduct your business. After a day or two the word will get around and supplement your advertising efforts. After the most attractive items are gone, you may wish to reconsider and change prices on those articles which have been slow to move. One-dasales may be profitable for the experienced Garage Sale promoters but in the beginner's case many things can go wrong, such as a rainy day, and you may have to advertise all over again. bur grocery bills could be higher if farmer cooperatives didn't help family farmers get the goods and services they need to produce food. The next time you open a can of corn, or pour a can of soup into a saucepan, take a minute to study the label. Not the words, just the label a piece of paper with a dab of glue and a bit of lettering. Chances are the processor paid his label supplier more than he paid the farmer for the can's contents. A comparative few of your food dollars end up in farmers' bank accounts. Dairy for a farmers, for example, receive only about quart of milk. All of your food prices, in fact, are affected more by labor, transportation, processing, advertising and other costs than they are by farm prices. To survive on very narrow profit margins, farmers have to be extremely efficient. America's family farmers are the world's most efficient food producers, partly because they're able to buy many of the goods and services they need through cooperatives. That's why more than 80 of American farmers belong to one or more farmers get fertilizer, Through their supply seed, feed, fuel and other inputs which are essential to s co-op- co-op- modern agriculture. are owned and controlled by the farmer members who benefit from their existence. Because they operate on a not basis, co-oprices to members are as reasonable as possible. Price is Co-op- s one reason farmers patronize their cooperatives. Dependability is another reason. Because they are owned by farmers, cooperatives are always in the business of serving their farmer members. companies may cut back or even abandon their farm trade when business conditions make it profitable to do so. A few years ago, when foreign fertilizer prices were much higher than domestic prices, farmer kept fertilizer here, rather than make a "killing" by selling it abroad as many other fertilizer manufacturers did; and that was fortunate for American consumers. e co-op- s Without your"supermarket-- in you'd notice a big difference in both the amount and number of products available-- as well as the price.
