Primary School Fund of $10 per Census Child Predicted The September primary school fund payment probably will be $10 per census child, according to Eu- gene B. Elliott, superintendent of public instruction. Elliott's forecast was based on the certification of John D. Mor- rison, auditor general, that the fund as of July 30 stood at $14,- 726,373 compared with $12,741,134 for the same date last year. Last year the first payment was $9 a census child. The state's general fund begin- ning January 1 next, will contrib- ute the difference between the primary fund and $50,000,000 which is the legislative appropria- tion for the 1946-47 school year. Wheat delivered at local eleva- tors the past week has been of high quality, some of it testing as high as 63 pounds to the bushel. Barley samples are also of unusual qual- ity, it is said. Started in 1927 with a modest short-term loan of $15,000, the National Music Camp has grown to a half million dollar investment of land, buildings and equipment. En- jrollment has climbed steadily from 115 in 1927 to more than 1,300 in 1946. An indebtedness of $30,000 in de- bentures, due in 1934, was pro- longed ten years at reduced inter- est.

Purdy of Deford, accompanied by the lat- ter's sister and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Shurlow, of Lapeer, returned home recently from a 15- day automobile trip in which they traveled 5,940 miles through 14 states. From desert roads in Arizona to thrilling rides over mountain trails in Wyoming and other western states, they saw un- usually beautiful scenery in tem- peratures that ranged from 110 de- grees in the South to the other ex- treme at Iceberg Lake in the Rocky 'Mountain National Park where at an altitude of 11,500 feet the lake stays frozen 11 months of the year. , While traveling through Mis- ' souri on the way to Kansas, the party stopped in Independence and saw the home of President Tru- j man's mother. They arrived in Kansas at the peak of the wheat harvest. Of particular interest | to Mr. Purdy, who is manager of j the Frutchey Bean Co. elevators at Deford, was the "big way" in which the wheat farmers in Kan- sas harvest their crops. Large convoys of combines loaded on trucks were making their way from farm to farm to complete in one operation the cutting and threshing of vast fields of wheat. As the grain ripens, the convoys travel the states from south to north in their operations. In Kansas, because of lack of rail- road cars, farmers were obliged in many instances to store their wheat temporarily in large piles on the ground. At Estes Park, 'Colorado, the party were guests at the home of Caswell Hunter, formerly of Cass City. The Purdys and Shurlows traveled the Trail Ridge in the Mountain National Park, consid- ered the world's highest highway. Colorado Springs, Manitou Springs, Pike's Peak, the Garden of the Gods and Will Rogers' Shrine of the Sun on Cheyenne Mountain were other points of interest visit- ed in Colorado. At Canon City, they saw the Royal Gorge. Anticipating seeing large herds on the cattle ranches in New Mex- ico, they were disappointed in the number of animals .until they realized it took quite a large area of pasture there to feed one steer. Before reaching Phoenix, Ari- zona, where they visited Mr. Pur- dy's sister and family, they passed through the Salt River Canyon Concluded oh page 5.

Primary School Fundof $10 per CensusChild Predicted

The September primary schoolfund payment probably will be $10per census child, according to Eu-gene B. Elliott, superintendent ofpublic instruction.

Elliott's forecast was based onthe certification of John D. Mor-rison, auditor general, that thefund as of July 30 stood at $14,-726,373 compared with $12,741,134for the same date last year. Lastyear the first payment was $9 acensus child.

The state's general fund begin-ning January 1 next, will contrib-ute the difference between theprimary fund and $50,000,000which is the legislative appropria-tion for the 1946-47 school year.

Wheat delivered at local eleva-tors the past week has been of highquality, some of it testing as highas 63 pounds to the bushel. Barleysamples are also of unusual qual-ity, it is said.

Started in 1927 with a modestshort-term loan of $15,000, theNational Music Camp has grown toa half million dollar investment ofland, buildings and equipment. En-

jrollment has climbed steadily from115 in 1927 to more than 1,300 in1946.

Purdys Enjoy 5,940Mile Trip ThroughWestern States

Mr. and Mrs. Fred E. Purdy ofDeford, accompanied by the lat-ter's sister and husband, Mr. andMrs. Ray Shurlow, of Lapeer,returned home recently from a 15-day automobile trip in which theytraveled 5,940 miles through 14states. From desert roads inArizona to thrilling rides overmountain trails in Wyoming andother western states, they saw un-usually beautiful scenery in tem-peratures that ranged from 110 de-grees in the South to the other ex-treme at Iceberg Lake in the Rocky'Mountain National Park where atan altitude of 11,500 feet the lakestays frozen 11 months of theyear.

, While traveling through Mis-' souri on the way to Kansas, theparty stopped in Independence andsaw the home of President Tru-

j man's mother. They arrived inKansas at the peak of the wheatharvest. Of particular interest

| to Mr. Purdy, who is manager ofj the Frutchey Bean Co. elevators atDeford, was the "big way" inwhich the wheat farmers in Kan-sas harvest their crops. Largeconvoys of combines loaded ontrucks were making their wayfrom farm to farm to complete inone operation the cutting andthreshing of vast fields of wheat.As the grain ripens, the convoystravel the states from south tonorth in their operations. InKansas, because of lack of rail-road cars, farmers were obliged inmany instances to store theirwheat temporarily in large piles onthe ground.

At Estes Park, 'Colorado, theparty were guests at the home ofCaswell Hunter, formerly of CassCity. The Purdys and Shurlowstraveled the Trail Ridge in theMountain National Park, consid-ered the world's highest highway.Colorado Springs, Manitou Springs,Pike's Peak, the Garden of theGods and Will Rogers' Shrine ofthe Sun on Cheyenne Mountainwere other points of interest visit-ed in Colorado. At Canon City,they saw the Royal Gorge.

Anticipating seeing large herdson the cattle ranches in New Mex-ico, they were disappointed in thenumber of animals .until theyrealized it took quite a large areaof pasture there to feed one steer.

Farm Sheep BarnBy W. J. Dryden, WNU Farm Editor.

The principal requirements ofsheep, barns or sheds are goodventilation and dryness, freedomfrom drafts and good lighting. Ashed with an open front to the southmakes a very satisfactory sheepshed for mild climates. By placingwindows in the front it will provesuitable for any type of climate1 orany condition.

In planning the building, conven-ience in feeding and herding must

A commercial farm flock mayconsist of as few as 30 ewes. Theproduction of "hot-house" lambs ishighly specialized and requires adefinite kind of ewe flock, goodbarns, careful management andheavy feeding. A "hot-house" lambis born between September 1 andJanuary 1. These lambs are slaugh-tered when they weigh from 40 to50 pounds live weight and rangefrom 6 lo 10 weeks of age. Only

be considered, both in regard toplans and to location. Sixteen squarefeet of floor space is required foreach breeding ewe, while half thatamount will be sufficient for a feederlamb.

Suitable equipment, convenientlyarranged, saves time, labor andfeed in the production of sheep andlambs. Most of the equipment canbe built at small expense. Allequipment should be so designedthat any injury to the sheep ortheir wool will be prevented.

The sheep shed or barn should beso located that there will be suffi-cient suitable land for additions tobe made to the shed. One continu-

t ous barn might prove a labor saver.It might be advisable, where largeproduction is undertaken, to place afeed building in the center or ateither end of the sheep barn.

If the sheep shed or barn is lo-cated near a larger building orwind-break, additional warmth andshelter will be provided. The earthunder the floor, or the earth floor, isused, and foundation should beabout six inches higher than the sur-

Bounding ground to prevent surfaceWater from draining into the build-ing.

The length of the grazing seasonvaries from one section of the coun-try to another. Usually a flock mayfind good grazing for about sixmonths or more annually.

Generally sheep require inexpen-sive buildings and equipment. If thelambs are born in the latespring, only a shed or a very in-expensive barn is needed. The chiefrequirements are shelter from thewind and snow or rain and a clean,dry place to lie down.

PLANmovable racks for feeding in .thefield are advisable.

In some sections, it may be ad-visable to construct the front withwindows that may be entirelyopened when desired. These may bebuilt to open inward on hinges ormay be on a slide from left to right.

This type of sheep barn may findmany uses. It makes a suitablestorage for hay, grain or farmequipment when not needed forsheep. When building any type offarm structure, when possible, itshould be of such a nature that itcan be reconverted.

Sailors' EarringsNative sailors of many countries

have used earrings, sometimes asj a mark of rank, and the men of! 17th century Europe wore earringsi f or personal adornment. SeafaringI men continued the practice, espe-i cially pirates whose preference wasj for the gold hoop. Apparently thetradition has carried over to mod-ern navies the Pacific wearing ear-rings. If worn in the left ear theearring supposedly indicates the

• wearer is a survivor of a lost shipI and wears it as a tribute to less' fortunate shipmates, while if wornin the right ear it is a token thatthe wearer participated in the inva-

i sion of a Japanese island.

Know Your BreedAberdeen AngusBy W. J. DRYDEN

History of the Aberdeen-Angusbreed in the United States datesback to the importation in 1850 of acow named "Dutchess" from Port-lethen, Scotland. There is no rec-ord of any present off-springs fromthis cow. In 1873, George Grant,

What has proven one of the most entertaining, unusual andcolorful offerings of the kind ever., presented at any-stage is thatof The Littlejohns, coming to the Caro Fair as a feature part of thebig event to be held Aug. 19th to 24th.

The Littlejohns, who juggle various types of Indianclubs, shinylacquered disks, keen edged knives and flaming torches while rollingabout the stage on huge, jewel-studded globes, have done their actin many( parts of the world. The globes are costly affairs andmake a'' brilliant sight at night, especially when lights from thestage strike them.

It is said The Littlejohns, while touring the Old World, made along stay in Calcutta, for the special purpose of accumulating jewelsof extraordinary51 beauty and brilliance. Not only are the globesstudded with valuable stones, but all the paraphernalia used in theact, and their costumes as well.

Elgou of Sunbeam, excellenttype of Aberdeen-Angus bull.

Victoria, Kans., imported at leastthree bulls and ran them with com-mon stock. This was really the foun-dation of the present breed inAmerica, although many importa-tions have been made since thattime.

The Aberdeen-Angus are bred andraised almost exclusively for beef,although some strains are fairlygood milkers. They hold an envi-able record in the feed lot and asfat slaughter cattle.

Control Corn EarwormBy Proper Treatment

In order to prevent corn-earworm,Cornell has found that an inexpen-sive medicinal type of mineral oil,heavy grade, will prove satisfac-tory. The ears should be treatedafter the silk has started to turn

brown at the tip, from three to fivedays after silk first appears.

Apply the oil with an ordinary,medicine dropper. Fill half full,about 20 drops, for small ears, andthree-fourths full for large ears. In-sert the dropper into the silk justinside the tip of the husk as shown.The oil penetrates the silk "chan-nel" and kills the young worms asthey enter.

DDT May Not AlwaysBe Dangerous to Bees

Latest findings indicate that DDTmay not be as fatal to bees as wasformerly believed. It is true thatif the hives are sprayed with DDTthe bees will die. Tests at Michiganshowed that bees in orchards whichhad been sprayed did as well isbees in an orchard where DDT wasnot applied.

For the past few weeks, severalat the north end of the Bluff havewatched with interest the activitiesof £ pair of phoebes, a rather un-common and perhaps little under-stood bird. The phoebe is a plain,every day bird that has never hadmuch recognition. There is noth-ing1 glamorous about her. Herclothes are strictly utilitarian inshades of gray and dull black. Sheis an inconspicuous lady comparedwith our cardinal or indigo bunt-ing, is smaller than the familiarrobin but considerably more ener-getic. She builds her big, comfort-able nest of sticks and mud in latespring in the shelter of an over-hanging roof or similar well pro-tected spot. She lays four or fivewhite eggs and rears as many asthree families in one season. Theyoung seem to subsist on varioustypes of insects and the older birdsare kept continually busy supply-ing their constant demands. Thecall or song, if it can be calledsuch, of the phoebe is a jerky, em-phatic "Phoe-be" with the accenton the second syllable and is con-cluded with a quick jerk of thetail, which seems to be a sort ofnervous condition. It is quite no-ticeable as she endeavors to keepher balance on a precarious perchof a dead twig or frail limb.

jcal change in weather conditions.However, up to the present writ-ing nothing unusual has occurred.Perfect summer weather still pre-vails but the severe drought is notappreciated by local gardeners andour shrubbery is badly in need ofrain and moisture.

Ellen Terry always felt that theefficiency of property men contrib-uted as much to the success of aplay as did the dramatic talent ofthe actors involved.

One night the audience sat in ab-sorbed silence. - Miss Terry wasabout to commit suicide by jump-ing from the high rock into the riv-er. However, the property men hadforgotten to place a mattress in thestage "river." Thus she landed onthe bare floor with a loud thud. Theaudience's titters turned to roars oflaughter when someone in the gal-lery shouted:

"What do you know—the water'sfrozen."

IDENTIFICATION POINT

Feeling thirsty, the professorcrawled out of his berth and madehis way through the silent railwaycoach to the water cooler. In hisabstraction he had failed to notethe number of his berth and soonfound himself hopelessly lost in themaze of curtained compartments.

"Can't you remember the num-ber of your berth?" asked the con-ductor.

"I'm — er — afraid not," was thereply.

"Well, haven't you any ideawhere it was?"

"Why, uh—oh, yes-, to be sure."The professor brightened with asudden recollection. "I did noticeone time this afternoon that thewindows look out upon a littlelake!"

Broad Hint"Daughter has arranged a little

piece for the piano.""That's fine," commented Dad.

"It's about time we had a littlepeace."

MEETING AT LAST

Groping downstairs in his barefeet, the British householder sur-prised an intruder packing thefamily silver into a bag.

"By Jove, a real burglar! I say,wait a minute, will you?"

"And you'll call a bobby! *'snarled the burglar.

"Oh no, only while I call mywife. She's heard you every nightfor 20 years, and I'm sure it willbe a real pleasure for her to meetyou at last."

Breaking the PeaceMrs. Thompson and Mrs. Wil-

liamson had been quarreling foryears. At last, through the good of-fices of the local clergyman, theyhad been brought together at theparsonage and induced to shakehands in a mutual pledge of peace.

After an embarrassing silence,Mrs. Thompson exclaimed, "Well,Mrs. Williamson, I wish you allthat you wish me."

"Now who's saying nastythings?" snapped Mrs. Williamson,

A Long WaitWhen the Chicago subway was be-

ing dug a drunk stopped beside theexcavation and called down to theman at the bottom of the pit:

"Shay, watch doin' down there?'1"We're building a subway," one

of the men responded."How long is it go in' to take to

bull' it?""Three years," came the answer."Three years! I'll take a taxi."

Small ChangeAt a meeting Dr. Oliver Wendell

Holmes once attended, there weremany tall men present. Someonesaid to the doctor, "You must feelrather small among those big fel-lows."

"I do," replied the doctor,, whoalways thought rather well of him-self. "I feel like a dime among alot of pennies!"

Oh Fudge!Shocked by the language used by

two men repairing telephone wireson the post, the chaplain reportedthem to the executive officer, whoordered the men to make a reportof the incident. Here is what Pri-vate Smith wrote: "Me and Pri-vate Jones were on the job andI was up the pole and accidental-ly let the hot lead fall on him and !it went down his neck and PrivateJones said: 'Really, Private Smith,you must be more careful.'

LAST IN STOCK"

When c. young lawyer first openedMs office in New York he took abasement room which had been pre-viously occupied by a tailor. He wassomewhat annoyed by the previousoccupant's callers and irritated^ bythe fact that he had few of his own.One day an Irishman entered.

"The tailor's gone, I see," he said."I should think he has," tartly

responded the attorney."And what do you sell?" asked

the visitor, looking at the solitarytable and the few law books.

"Blockheads," responded the.lawyer.

"Begorra," said the Irishman,"ye must be doing a mighty finebusiness.; ye ain't got but oneleft."

Just an Accident"Doc," said the old mountaineer,

leading a gangling youth into thepresence of the village medico, "Iwant you should fix up my son-in-law. I shot him in the leg yester-day and lamed him up a mite."

"Tut, tut," clucked the doctor dis-approvingly, "shame on you forshooting your own son-in-law!"

"Wai, doc," rejoined'the moun-taineer, "he warn't my son-in-lawwhen' I shot him."

Planting SignsLong before phenology became a

science, farmers discovered the ad-vancement of the native vegetationin the spring furnished reliableguides to the best time for sowingand planting crops. One old-fash-ioned rule, probably derived fromthe Indians, was that corn shouldbe planted when the leaf of thewhite oak was "the size of a mouse'sear." Several traditional rules ofthis kind are current among farm-ers, and one of the tasks of thephenologists is' to check them upon the basis of actual statistics.

nia'~pHE> bljL ag sunshine is very

•*• much $a a us, and lazy, perfectsummer dft- s are indeed welcometo those wi^o like outdoor sports.No active woman wants 'to stay in-doors all day, and most want toplan at least some outdoor activityfor every day that is seasonable.

Long ago we learned that if weare to take full advantage of per-fect sunshine and fresh air, we mustbe suitably dressed for it. Yes, evenif it's just weeding the garden orgoing down to the beach, wear some-thing that's cool but comfortable,and do try to get your quota of thebeneficial rays from the sun if youwant to build health reserves forwinter.

Whether you bicycle or golf, lollaround at the beach or picnicgrounds, one of your first essentialsis a playsuit. Now, - that might beanything from a sun-back dress to apair of shorts with a halter top ora large shirt, but it's definitely amust in the summer wardrobe.

If you feel that you don't want togo to the expense of buying a play-,suit of some type, then check overthe dresses you no longer considersuitable for wear as such, and makethem .over. Most dresses will pro-vide at least the top of a playsuit,and others will give you perhaps thetwo or three-piece set, the latterone with a skirt to match or con-trast the top.

Select Becoming PatternIn Play Togs

Because sports clothing such asa playsuit is used either for activework or for lounging, it should beboth comfortable and attractive.Armholes, for example, must belarge enough to allow the arms tomove around freely. Shorts forplaysuits should never be tight, butshould fit smoothly through the hipsand waist, and must be largeenough around the legs to allow foreasy running or bicycling.

If you are making shorts for theplaysuit it would be a good ideato fit the pattern to yourself, pin-ning it together to see that you have

; Turn last year's dresses . . .

enough freedom of movement andstill enough seam allowance to sewit together properly. Or, an evenbetter idea is to baste together aninexpensive muslin pair of shorts cutfrom your pattern and fit them onbefore making pattern adfustments.

Never attempt to put together apair of shorts or blouse withoutknowing for certain that the pat-tern will fit. It may correspondperfectly to the measurements ofwaist and hips, for instance, butthink how much valuable materialand work would be wasted if theshorts were not long enough to fitover the abdomen to allow bendingand other exercises that are boundto come in sports.

The best type of seam for shorts—both from the point of view ofthe most comfort and also tailoredappearance, is the flat^fell or Frenchseam. This is not at all difficultto make, and the shorts will fit eas-ily together, hold well and permitease of wear.

If there is a wide discrepancy be-tween waist and hip measurement(more than seven inches), a good

idea in shorts would be one withthe straps—the short overall effectthat is popular. In this case you donot need to nip in the waist so muchas the straps will hold the shorts up

very well. Interesting buttons canof course give the waist, top orstraps a good decorative effect.

Some shorts do use zippers—andthis can be done to give a good fitover the hips and waist—but anotherniee effect is to use a placket withbuttons.

Action Back GivesFreedom in Blouse

Most blouses for playsuits carrythe action back for a very good rea-son. An active sport like ten-nis, golf or bicycling requires plen-ty of shoulder action and unlessyou want to put undue strain on thegarment an action back is the onlyanswer. The yoke in this type ofgarment enables you to have asmooth fit over the shoulders, thusgiving you comfort, but the gather-ing in the back of the blouse willgive you extra room when backmuscles are called into play.

It if easy to fit the yoke to theback of the blouse if you put smallrunning stitches at the edge of theback part of the blouse and pullthem to gather until they fit theyoke itself.

Sleeves must be eased in verycarefully to fit properly. Here againit is best to make a small run-ning stitch around the sleeve so thatit can be gathered evenly to .fill thearmhole. All the gathers, however,should fall on top of the armhole,and there should never beHny gath-ering underneath the arm.

Another idea which is gainingpopularity in playsuit tops is theponcho style which you may haveseen in blouses for suits. This style,too, permits plenty'of freedom ofmovement. The tie at the waistfront also offers an opportunity fordecorative effect.

Sleeves are the first giveawayto the age of the garment. Ifsleeves are worn, remove thementirely and cut sleeves froma contrasting material with asmart, new pattern and insertthem. If the garment has longsleeves, cut them at the elbow orwrist and make short or"capped" sleeves from them.

Leftover sleeve material canbe used fyr neck facings, pock-ets or ever4 as reinforcements un-der the arm.

Old dresses—particularly if thetops show undue wear, can havethe sleeves cut out entirely. Inthis case, make a brand new con-trasting colored jacket to wearwith them and no one will knowwhether the dress is old or new.

Too - short dirndl skirts foryoung daughter can be made tofit by lengthening at the waistor the hem. They are ideal whenthere is a wide contrasting col-ored hem. In this case be surethat the piece of material widenssufficiently at the hem so that itwill look as if it belonged to thegarment. If this is made double,it can be let out the next year ifthe girl has outgrown the length.Another idea is to put ruffing oran embroidered eyelet at the bot-tom of the skirt to add an inchor two of length.

Sleeves for both coats and dressesare loose and graceful. And anothergraceful note, particularly in sum-mer coats, is the softly gatheredwaistline that ties easily at the front.

Princess styles are lovely for sum-mer sports wear. They give the im-pression of perfect grace rather ef-fortlessly, and they are not tightlynipped in at the waist so they per-mit freedom of movement.

ing, byor war we V/ere ill

ith Weapons.

WASHINGTON. — At the outbreakof war, our armed forces were likekids without fireworks on theFourth of July as far as rocketswere concerned. But the handicapwas made up • in deadly fashion,says the United Press.

The army and navy lifted secrecyon more of their wartime rocketweapons. In a report issued jointlywith the office of scientific re-search and development, they said:

"When the Jap attack on PearlHarbor catapulted the United Statesinto war, our army and navy hadnot a single rocket in service use.Plans for rockets were limited."

The report also frankly admittedthat as late as June, 1940—after thefall of France—the armed forcesshowed only "mild interest" in sug-gestions of a civilian scientist thatrockets could and should be devel-oped.

Ideas Proved Sound.The scientist was Dr. C. N. Hick-

man of Bell Telephone laboratories.He/ was one of the leading rocketscientists of the recent war, andevery one of his ideas proved soundin combat.

We didn't start a rocket programuntil July, 1940, and we were wellinto the war before a single rocketmissile was hurled at the enemy.We had to depend heavily at first onthe experience of the British.

Neverthelss, the report declared,by the end of the war we had:

Fired millions of rockets rangingin weight from 3 pounds to almost1,300, in velocity from 65 to 1,500feet per second, and having rangesup to 10,000 yards.

Used rockets as weapons for footsoldiers, airplanes, jeeps, tanks,trucks and virtually every type ofnaval craft.

Wide Variety of Uses.Employed rockets to smear sub-

merged submarines; to knock outtanks and planes; to spearhead theNormandy break-through in 1944and assault landings all the wayfrom Oran to Okinawa.

Virtually created a special newpowder industry.

Utilized rockets for specializedpurposes such as propelling mineclearing and anti-radar devices;launching the American experimen-tal version of the buzz bomb; offset-ting the recoil of guns; furnishinghigh pressure gas for flame throw-ers—and even driving holes for tele-phone poles.

By V-J Day, the combined mili-tary services were procuring rock-ets at a cost rate of 1,350 milliondollars a year.

The nation's rocket program wascarried on jointly by the "rocketdivision" of the national defense re-search committee — a branch ofOSRD — and by military scien-tists.

The NDRC group was headed byDr. F. L. Hovde. Research activi-ties were centered at George Wash-ington university in Washington, D.C. and at California Institute ofTechnology, Pasadena.

Through the ten years ending with 1945, The Detroit Edison Company paidtaxes totaling more than $122,000,000. Those taxes were collected from us,under the authority of the Constitution, to "provide for the common defenceand promote the general welfare."More than $55,000,000 of that amount was paid to LOCAL units of government.That means it went to the cities, counties, villages and townships right here athome, in the territory which The Detroit Edison Company serves.The tiniest village has Edison taxes in its treasury. The little red schoolhousegot its share ot the $55,000,000. Edison tax payments were a major contributionto the funds necessary to meet the ever-growing governmental obligations of theCity of Detroit.In 1945, Detroit Edison's local taxes passed $6,000,000, for a new high, higherthan our Federal taxes for the first time since 1940.There is no intent either to boast or to complain about this record of tax payments*The Detroit Edison Company prizes its position as a private citizen, and with thatposition goes the obligation to be a tax payer rather than a tax consumer.Let it also be made crystal-clear that you, the buyers of Edison power and light,paid that $122,000,000.It was a part of your electric bill, but it was not a charge for electricity. It WAS apart of your cost of government.

(Electrical Drying;Soft Corn Practical

Ohio Farmer DevelopsI Own Economical System: The problem of drying soft cornlis not the difficult chore it oncejwas, according to farmers whoihave experimented successfully'with fan-operated, forced air sys-|tems installed in their own cribs.; Heat is not an essential factor inmost installations, particularly whendrying operations are conducted injthe fall or early spring. The dan-ger in cribbing immature corn isthat it may spoil before cold weath-er arrives to restrain spoilage proc-

1 esses during the winter, or moldduring the first few warm springdays.

: Forced air drying is practical andj economical without heat in temper-fatures as low as 50 degrees. High-•er temperatures, however, speed^up and cut costs of drying opera-tions. Karl Mohr, Ohio farmer, for^example, reported having spent $10jfor electricity to crib-dry 60 tons of[immature corn by forcing air'through it for 100 continuous hours; during a period when daytime tem-tperature reached 80 degrees.• Mohr's drying arrangement isI typical of workable, successful{types which farmers can install

Karl Mohr is shown watchinghis electrically-driven fan forcemoisture - removing air from acrib of immature corn.

! themselves. His 35 by 10-foot, tight-sided crib has a slatted floor, with1% by 2-inch slats installed edge-wise and spaced five-eighths of an

i inch apart. A 42-inch fan, drivenby a 5-horsepower motor, blows airinto a closed tunnel extending underithe entire crib. Air, forced underthe crib, moves up naturallythrough the slatted floor and outvents in the top of the crib, takingexcessive moisture with it. Small-er fans and motors will work justas well with less extensive dryingoperations.

Mohr's crib vents serve a doublepurpose. In addition to being ex-;hausts for air, they also serve asopenings into which corn is eleva£ed for storage in the crib.

Six pieces of scrap pipe, a fewlengths of scrap iron, a standardrubber tired wheel, and a few min-utes use of arc welder will producethis handy wheelbarrow for the"farm.

: Short pipe sections fused to the(front end of the pipe frame andihandle members made ideal bear-•ings for the wheel axle.

Know Your BreedPolled HerefordBy W. J. DRYDEN

Since 1902 American cattlemenhave developed within the Hereford,a naturally hornlessstrain — the PolledHereford. Since theearly work done by \jlBenjamin Tom-kins in 1742, withEnglish oxen, thebreed is now classed as one of thegreatest of beef cattle.

There are now some 200,000 on theofficial records. When original horn-less bulls are mated with registeredhorned Hereford cows, about halfthe resulting calves are hornless.First known exhibit of hornless cat-tle was at Omaha fair in 1898. To-day %they take a leading part in ev-ery fair or show entered.

Vaccinate for ControlOf Sleeping Sickness

Horses should be vaccinated inareas where sleeping sickness hasbeen a problem in recent years.•It is believed that the virus of thedisease is carried over from yearto year by birds, and it has alsobeen found that chickens can harborthe virus, according to the Amer-ican Foundation for Animal Health.Mosquitoes and other blood-suck-ing insects pass the virus on to thehorses and human beings.

Cuts Use of CornIn Processed Food

15 Per Cent Limit OrderedBy Government.

WASHINGTON, D. C. — The agri-culture department ordered a 15per cent reduction in the use of cornin manufactured foods.

The order applies to such foodsas grits, corn meal and breakfastcereals, but not to items likecanned sweet corn or, popcorn.

The decree also curbs the use ofcorn, wheat or other grains bymanufacturers of livestock and poul-try feed and the purchse of grainto feed hogs, cattle and poultry.Most grain fed to livestock is grownby the farmer who feeds it, how-ever, and the use of such feed isnot restricted.

The action is designed to makemore grain available for export tohungry people abroad. The depart-ment's statement said it alsoshould help relieve feed shortages insome areas of this country.

The order prohibits the purchaseof grain or grain products to feedhogs to a weight beyond 225 pounds,except for breeding stock, or tofeed cattle better than grade A. Thisis one grade from the top, grade AA.

In the case of ehickens, turkeys,ducks and other poultry, growersare limited in their purchases ofgrain or grain products to suchamount as will feed 80 per cent ofthe number of fowl they fed in 1945.The limitation applies by monthsfrom April through September andthe 80 per cent is to be calculatedon the corresponding months of1945.

The order does not affect feedingactivities by farmers with grain theygrow themselves.

Manufacturers of mixed .feed arelimited in their use of grain, grainproducts, and by - products eachmonth to 80 per cent of what theyused in the corresponding month of1945.

Food manufacturers and dry proc-essors are restricted in their useof corn or grain sorghums to 85 perlcent of 1945, by months.

Use of sorghums by wet proces-sors is limited each month to 80 percent of the average monthly con-sumption for the first six months of1945.

The order also imposes inventoryrestrictions on feeders and manufac-turers and provides for appeals inhardship cases.

r^ISGUSTED with his own eook-••-' ing, George angrily pushed hischair back with his foot. If only(Anna weren't such a strange littleforeigner, he thought impatiently,his meals wouldn't be so tasteless,and the burden of keeping house, in*addition to many of the farmchores, would fall on her instead ofhim.

With the odor of the barn stillclinging to his clothes, he walkedthe short distance to the next farmto see Anna and speak to her cousin.Without knocking, he went into theliving room.

The woman looked up from hermending indifferently, as if his vis-its were too frequent for him to beconsidered a guest. "Hello, George.You'll find Anna in the kitchen."

"Have you spoken to her yet, Mrs.Laud?" he asked.

"Well," Mrs. Laud said slowly, "Itried to, only she didn't seem toknow what I was getting at." Shepaused thoughtfully. "Seemed morethat she pretended not to."

"I see," he said wearily."I did tell her what a fine, honest

man you are. But her only ambi-tion right now is to visit a fortuneteller." She laughed indulgently.

"A fortune teller?""Yes. Can you imagine? She be-

lieves in them. You see, in Europea gypsy once read her palm. AndAnna said that everything came.true. Of course, I imagine littleAnna helped out a lot by twistingeverything that happened to her intothe shape of that faker's prediction."

They talked a while longer aboutAnna, who was only twelve when theGermans invaded her country, and

"I want see fortune teller."

how Mrs. Laud managed to get herto Canada. George had often heardthe story before. Soon he went intothe kitchen. He leaned against thewall, faded blue overalls saggingon his awkward thin frame; his longneck tipped forward, his blond, sun-drjpd hair hanging over dull blueeyes.

As Anna washed the dishesGeorge could almost see the dreamsin her large eyes—dreams of a mod-ern knight riding in the wind withher, the long thick braids of her hairflying behind her.

Her eyes sparkled. "I want seefortune teller."

"What for?""I want find out who my hus-

band be."Suddenly he had an. -idea, and, he

was overwhelmed by his own clev-erness. What had Mrs. Laud saida little while ago? "She believes inthem . . . little Anna helped out alot ... she sure does swear by themhow." His red face brightened withenthusiasm. After all, he thought,they would probably be marriedsome day, anyway. No harm inhurrying things up a bit. "There'san amusement park . fifteen milesfrom here," he told her.

On the bus Anna sat quietly inanticipation. George saw her lowerher wide eyes modestly when shenoticed the men staring at her shyloveliness. Failing to escape theirglances, she took a white handker-chief out of her pocket and wipedaway the lipstick with which hercousin had touched her mouth."Maybe they don't look now," she.whispered to George. Naive. Thankheaven she was, he thought. Forhis plans were all the likelier to suc-ceed.

At the park she walked close tohim, asking every few minuteswhere the fortune teller'was located.They came to a row of booths un-der a huge awning and he bought aticket. "Wait here a minute," hesaid. "I'll be back soon."

He told the fortune teller to de-scribe him to Anna when she askedabout her future husband. He hand-ed her some money. "Don't forget.Tall man, blond hair, blue eyes."Then he went out. "You can go innow," he told Anna.

While waiting for her, he laughed.Anna wouldn't doubt the or'acle fora minute, he thought, amused. Whenshe came out, she looked" as if shewere in a trance. Her large shiningeyes were fecused straight ahead.

He fell into step beside her. "Well,what did she say?"

"Oh, she say wonderful things.She say I marry tall man. He haveblue eyes with blond hair. And hebe very good to me. I know he bethe handsomest man in the world.And I wait for him," she said softly,"I wait for him forever."

An interesting session on sheepparasite control and blockingbrought 4-H Oxford sheep mem-bers to the fair grounds at CaroSaturday, July 26.

Dr. Frank Thorp, Jr., who is incharge of sheep disease researchat Michigan State College, gave acomplete autopsy on a thin, sicklylamb, while the boys and girlswatched in amazement. Upon in-vestigation Dr. Thorp found heavyparasite infestation. Sheep tickswere thick over the body of thelamb and Dr. Thorp pointed outthat the sheep cannot raise ticksand be growing normally too.

On the inside Dr. Thorp followedthe digestive tract from beginningto end. He found a mass of stom-ach worms, round worms and no-dular worms" in the small intestine.These worms present one of theworst hazards to sheep raising.Dr. Thorp recommended tways ofcontrolling these worms by the useof phenothiozine. He found nosebats in the upper passages of thenose and showed the boys wherelung worms were found, anothermenace to sheep raising.

In the afternoon, Harry Cran-dell, Jr., former shepherd of theMichigan State College sheepflock, gave a demonstration onblocking, a sheep for showing. Thisis a skill that few sheepmen cando well. Following this each boypracticed blocking one of their ownsheep which they had brought tothe fair grounds.

According to William Newland,assistant county agent, these ac-tivities were very helpful to mem-bers of the 4-H Oxford Club ofTuscola County.
