dairy products thio year. In order to readjust conditions which will meet this situation, more attention must bo paid to the winter and summer feeding program of the average dairy herd. Perhaps the most neglected phase of feeding is that a summer feed ing or putting too much reliance on the native pasture. Such crops as alfalfa, clovers, (sweet Nover, red clover, alslke), and leapedexa should be used more abundantly in the rotated pasture as well as Sudan grttssv and rye. in neglecting pastures. Indiana dairymen have failed to take advantage of one of the most favorable factors in helping the dairymen met present conditions and benefit thereby. The winter feeding program will be determined largely by what a man has in the way of roughage and grain on his farm, the production of his cows and the price of his products. Only in cases of high producing cows is the purchase of protein supplements advisable or wh‘w special markets justify the increased expense. High producing cows, especially those recently fresh, should receive a liberal supply of protein either from legume hay or in the grain ration. It is doubtful if lower producing cows will produce enough additional milk and butterfat to pay for their increased feed. Feed budgets on dairy farms will be more common in the future than they have in the past. Every effi.cient dairy cow requires a definite amount of feed. The acreages of various feeds such as legume hay, corn, oats, and soybeans should be planned for the next year's program in order to have sufficient quantities of the home grown balanced ration and where herds are large enough, provision should be made in the fed budget to fill the silo. Such a program will greatly aid in keeping the balance of trade in favor of the farmers. An interesting talk was also given at this meet inp by Merwin Mil ler, supervisor of the Dairy* Herd i improvement Association. The meeting was conducted by Peter D. Schwartz, president of the asso- ' elation, and was well attended by I interested dairymen. o — Marries: Escapes Tax Kansas City.

Her name was removed from the I tax roll i without further ado.

enter. Ginger was the only ' woman to take a game off the i champion last I year. And Fay Wray is giving the cup for the i men’s singles i this year. Ginger Rogers also is one of the few feminine celebrities to go in for marksmanship. She practices regularly at a

nne range in Laurel Canyon. Ann Harding used to be a crack pistol shot in the old Anny days, but she has dropped the hobby now. The newest fad for the men is skaet shooting. Rian James, who is dKol for guns, Bruce Cabot, RobM Montgomery and a half dozen others are keen on the new sport. Skeet shooting is to trap-shooting what contract bridge is to auction. In the traps, the clay disc always 1 comes up at one spot. In the skeet range, it rises from eight different ' points. In other words, you halve, quarter, etc., the imaginary birds. ' And you have only five seconds to ‘ make the shot. A group of us in Harry Ruskin’s office were recalling the famous wise-cracks of Broadway and Hollywood wits. Remember Bugs Baer’s crack upon meeting a friend in one of those thick-naped winter coats? “Well,” flipped Bugs, “I see you’ve shot your sofa.” And that other one of Baer’s, at the club, when someone said that Ren Bernie’s father was downstairs. “Okay,” said Bugs. “Shave him and send him up." Also that one of Waldemar Young's when a newspaper friend said he had to go down to the office to attend a conference on the policies of his sheet. “What?” exclaimed Young. You don't mean to say that paper is put out deliberately!” And that valedictory of the beloved wit, Wilson Mizner, as he lay dying. “Well,” whispered the husky voice, “I guess this is the main event.” And dozens more. They’ll make a whole column some day. DID YOU KNOW— That El Brendel and his wife. Flo Bert, toured the country for 12 years in the same vaudeville act?

Vegetable gardening is more a test of technique than flower grow- i ing for the average amateur. The dahlia fancier, who measures the size of his glooms and some other varieties of garden specialists may not agree to this statement. But! the average gardener does not spe-1. > liliz? to the extent cf measuring his flowers; and his sense of taste and consciouenees of tenderness in food are more exact indication of quality t'han his observation of the beauty of his flowers. The first object of vegetable gar- i den technique is to keep them grow-1 ing without interruption. Fast: growth is an Indication of good health and normal development w hich produce vegetables of the ’ proper type. When growth is inter-

rnpted by any cause, the cnaracter of a vegetable changes. The change j may not be evident in color; it is j always evident in size and usually j by the toughness of fiber. Some : times the flavor ie noticeably i changed. Leaf lettuce, which grows I slowly, becomes tough and bitter, i Three factors govern the speed of growth—soil, water and plant food. All these are subject to control in city gardens. Temperature lias an effect upon growth and | when it is abnormal it may spoil a iviop. Last summer abnormal heat | destroyed p us, prevented beans : from pollenating and delayed the early tomato crop. Temperature i« iiK-yond control but It rarely varies I sufficiently from normal to hav ? 'more t'aan a temporary effect upon

crops. Make your vegelablo garden In a spot where It can be watered. Prepare the soil deeply, driving th liliido of the spade down perpend,-, c i.rlarly its full length, breaking up | tho soil thmoiighly. In the old days I you would have spaded in each year from six inches to a foot of stableniniure. bul nowadays it Is rure'v cbtainable One must use the modc.n plant foods, which on the whole a •<■ easier, pleasanter, und more effective. i One does not spade in the modern plant foods. They are much more quickly availanle to plums than ma nure, After thy soil has been prepared and ratted smooth, then the plant food should be broadcast and raked into the top three Inches. A . balance plant food should be used ' which contains all t he too I elements nitrogeiu phospliorus and potash : in good proportions, it may be used , liberally. Market growers on drilled crops, such as'root crops, tettu-co. raddshes and the like, use a pound to 100 square sett. This could be doubled without ill effect in the amateur garden. On hill crops such as sweet corn, vines and cabbages < the market grower uses about half a pound to WO square feet. < During tho season applications i of plant’ food should be made by sprinkling along the row at the rate I

' of a tablespoon to a yard a row. For plants which it is desired to force, s3< h as head lettuce, weekly applications of nitrogen which has been dissolved, will be effective.
