French Bitter Al Confab Omission ) ' Will Not Consider Decisions Bindina Paris, Feb. 8. — (UP) —Goveru- [ ment circles said today that France . would not consider herself bound . by any decisions reached by the f Allied big three without consulting , her. Confirmation that the Roosevelt- ' Churchill-Stalin meeting was under way without French participation ’ fanned the bitterness with which the French pres* has been discussing the conference since Gen. ' Charles De Gaullo's speech Monday. The French attitude was, that it was Unfair to leave France out of any discussion of the future of Germany since she is the reich’s closest neighbor and has suffered more than any other country from German invasions in the past 150 years. The French argued further that Britain and the United States in the course of time were bound to . pull gradually out of Europe, leaving France the main burden of . policing and militarily controlling 1 Germany. 1 Propaganda Bomb Washington, Feb. 8. —(UP) —The big three conference announcement was a propaganda bomb intended to give unhappy Germans a dreadful shudder. If their morale was sagging yesterday, it should be drooping today. That is the way the war psychologists estimate the unveiling of the Black Sea area conference. The Allied leaders broke the precedent of their first meeting by officially announcing this one, and its purpose, while it was still in progress. Observers believed today that a primary purpose in doing this was to exploit the psychological warfare value of the conference to ’he utmost at this moment while Allied armies are biting deeper into the reich. The crumbling of Allied censorship efforts to keep the meeting secret also may have been a factor. All the agencies of Allied propaganda immediately began hammering at the German people the conference theme that there is no hope for them save surrender, no hope for dividing the Allies. SAYS JAPAN FORCED (Continued From Page. 1) laid open to Allied landings. Japan also must garrison and prepare to defend from the air arid guerilla attacks the 2,000mile north-south corridor across China —the enemy’s only possible hope for homeward withdrawal of troops from the southern Asiatic regions. The approaching end ot' the European war and uncertainty over Soviet Russia’s Asiatic policy have made it impossible for Japan to relax her guard on the Manchurian frontier, where the Kwangtung army is stationed, these sources said. Affadvit Charges Reckless Driving An affidavit has been filed in the Adams- circuit court clurgin-g Richard (Dick) Highlen of Bluffton with reckless driving. The affidavit j was eigned by John Stauffer and issued by G. Remy Bierly, prosecut- \ ing attorney. Highlen was charged i with unlawful and reckless driving ( of his automobile on U. S. highway j 234 near the Ca’t-liolic cemetery, I west of Decatur, on February 3. If Summons was issued to the sheriff j I for hie arrest.

lick of the righ t kind of food can put a a man or an animal in an awful run down condition and I’ve seen some sadly run down pastures which needed a well-balanced diet, too. Grass responds to proper feeding better than most anything I know. Many demonstrations proving this I have been set up in nearly every state. One of these took place in Wisconsin last year, sponsored by the College of Agriculture soils department. It showed that as a result of snending $36.00 on ammonium nitrate a dairyman got back $272.94 in increased milk volume. Liming frequently is the treatment most needed for pastures. A soil test is the first step to take in deciding how much lime and whether nitrogen, phosphate or potash are needed. In addition to learning what is needed, you may save money by finding out one or another of those plant foods is not needed. Check with your county agent for this soil test. USDA Farmers’ Bulletin No. 1912 will give you some good suggestions on this subject and so will Extension Bulletin 505, College of Agriculture, Urbana, 111., and Extension Leaflet 241, Purdue University, Lafayette, Ind.* I I bring up this subject now ) in the hope that you’ll make ; your soil test and get your fertilizer ordered immediately so as to be sure and have it at hand when needed. Some time ago, I called ypur.attenI tion to an article on proper milking methods, printed in the Kraftsman. | Reprints of this article are available and I’ll be glad to send a copy. Write me at 500 Peshtigo Court, Chicago 90. 111., and ask for “How to Milk a Cow —and Why.” - /Auwnss i^L*w^ ,,ooocwo / I could lead up to my next subject by making some remark about this being an-udder troublesome matter for dairy farmers, hut I’ll restrain myself. The subject is mastitis and it’s a big problem. One state estimates its dairymen lose ten million dollars a year because of mastitis. Your cows should be tested regularly by a qualified veteri-

published now and then by the KRAFT CHEESE COMPANY

narian, to determine whether any animals are infected. .Mastitis can be detected in its early stages. It can be controlled. Neglect wiil cause more serious infection and may eventually mean complete loss of production. The secret of controlling mastitis is correct milking procedures: (1) cleaning udders with a chlorine solution before milking. (2) milking clean cows first, mildly infected cows next and badly infected cows last, (3) in hand milking wash hands in sudsy water before each cow is milked, (4) don’t let teat cups crawl, (5) sterilize teat cups before each cow is milked. Circular 385, Extension Service, University of Missouri, Columbia, Mo.,* and USDA Farmers’ Bulletin 1422 will be most helpful to you on this subject. Maybe you’ve heard the one about the youngster who was a lot of trouble to his teachers. His mother explained that before the boy was born, she was deeply affected by reading Charles Dickens’ “Davjd Copperfield” and added, “Junior has been a little Dickens ever since.” 1 imagine it would be difficult to prove that point but here’s a fact along the same line which has been proved—the care a cow <■ gets at freshening time verylargely will determine how productive she will be during her milking period. f Many cows will be freshening in > coming weeks and I suggest you get a copy of a special circular “Care at A Calving Time is Important” from the Extension Service, University of Wisconsin. Madison, Wise.,* for 4 j recommendations on handling. It lays down some simple but ■ effective rules which will do much • to insure top condition of the cow. It suggests reducing grain feeding two weeks before calving; providing a suitable calving stall; giving the cow warm water and a warm bran mash immediately after the calf is bom; bringing cows up to full feed gradually after calving. ’NOTE: There usually Is a 5c charge for pamphlets mailed to non-residents of a state; but possibly your own state has a free pamphlet on the some subject. Ask your
