Laugh-A-Bit with Tidbits April 8, 2013
A farmer and a city slicker were outside watching the geese fly over. The farmer says, "See that v formation that they fly in? Do you know why one side is always longer than the other?" The city slicker thinks for a bit and says, "No, why?" The farmer looks at him and says, "Because there's more geese on that side."

in action in the defense of his country near Stolsberg, Germany. At first his body was buried overseas, but was later returned to his country for reburial in Fort Snelling Cemetery. Surviving him at the time of his death were his parents, two brothers and six sisters. Sorenson Avenue is located to the north side of Appleton, between Snelling and Thielke Avenue.

Pickling Crock Q: While cleaning out my family barn in Kansas, I found an old crock that I am certain was used in my family for pickling. It has a large "10" on the side and is identified as being made by the Western Pottery company. Can you provide me with any other information I might find interesting? -- Steve, Kansas City, Kan. A: You are correct in that your crock was probably used for pickling, since the "10" indicates it is a 10-gallon vessel. The Western Pottery Manufacturing Company was located in Denver and produced stoneware crocks in various sizes. One
as large as the one you have is difficult to find in good shape. I suspect it would retail for at least $100, probably more. ••• Q: I am enclosing pictures of three Wedgwood plates that originally belonged to my grandmother. I am not sure of how old they are or how much they might be worth. Can you help me? -- Ron, Bradenton, Fla. A: Leslie V. Canavan is a recognized expert of Wedgwood and offers appraisals. There are literally thousands of pieces of Wedgwood, some valuable, some not. To determine values you must rely on the expertise of someone who is schooled in this field of collecting. Canavan, who is located in Chesterfield, a suburb of St. Louis, has advised Wedgwood enthusiasts for several decades. Contact her at Wedgwood@ alexisantiques.com, and 414-647-7986. Check out her excellent website at www.alexisantiques.com. ••• Write to Larry Cox in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O.

Mention that you saw it in TidBits and receive 5% off on your RockStar rockfork! • It was pioneering British director of suspense films Alfred Hitchcock who made the following sage observation: “The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.” • If you’re an arachnophobe, you probably don’t want to know that a tarantula can live for up to two years without eating a single thing. • If you’re like the average American man with a job, you spend 8 minutes per day cooking. If you’re like the average American woman who works, you spend 50 minutes a day preparing meals. • There are four times more astrologers than astronomers in the United States. • You may not think it significant that in 1921, Earle Dickson’s wife had a tendency to injure herself while working in the kitchen. He kept bandaging her wounds with gauze and adhesive tape, but the bandages always seemed to be slipping off. Finally, in exasperation, he put a small piece of gauze in the center of a piece of adhesive tape, which worked beautifully. None of this would have made any difference to us today, except that Dickson was an employee of Johnson & Johnson. He took some samples of his invention into work, where the owner, James Johnson, loved the idea. The Band-Aid went into production shortly thereafter. © 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.
