Use Quality Yardstick When You Put Up Hay This Summer

W////I' ///J///" rz/

M«t of us figure to put up hay by the ton, but Minnesota’s extension department suggest* hay *lmuld be put up by a “yardstick." However, they don't mean (or you to measure the inches in a stack. The yardstick Minnesota is talking about is a measure of feed value in the hay. It is important any year to get the best quality hay put away, but it has never been quite to important as it is in 1940. There’s a job ahead of producing more milk than ever before, and it cannot be done unless every cow gate the best quality and quautity, of hay and other feed. 3 Point! Make Quality Minnesota lists three cardinal points for insuring that your hay is dwck full of actual food value. These point, are (1) cut hay early; (2) put it up g quickly; and (3) save the leaves. Rich protein and high palatability are the milk-making factors found in high quality hay. The protein content of hay drops rapidly soon after the bfoom forms. It may increase in tonnage. but that gain is offset by the drop in feeding value. Your most important fob. therefore, it to cut yrxv hay as nearly the right time as possible to provide a goM yield aad yet before protein

„ __ • A Statement On The Present Bread Situation: The reasons for the shortage of brend can be contributed to one thing, so far as we here in Decatur are concerned—the short* age of flour. The flour shortage has no many different angles, a || of which originate far away from Decatur and Adams County, that we feel that to deal with problems concerning International Welfare is one thing, and to deal with our little problems at home here is another. There seems to be every indication that the bread shortage will gradually become worse until mid*July or August 1, At that time we can expect to get flour from the new wheat crop. And even then the shortage may continue in varying degrees for the next 12,0 rl4 months. So we may all just as well make up our minds to do without a certain amount of the staff of life for some time to come. If we knew exactly how much flour we were going to get we could govern our production accordingly; since we do not, the only thing we can do is cut our production according to the amount of flour we have on hand, have on contract and have prospects of buying. ’ The cooperation of the public is of first importance. And ’ there are many things we can all do to help. First, DON’T WASTE BAKERY PRODUCTS-since the one loaf limit has become quite general, those people where there is only 2 or 3 in the family should bear in mind there are a good many families with several growing or grown children and a loaf of bread is not much more than a slice for each person ONCE each day. Itemember if you don’t need bread, don’t buy it, save it for the people who do. The moment an article becomes scarce everybody wants to buy it, not because they need it, but it takes on the aspects of a collector's item. The Churches, Ixxlges, Clubs, etc., can perform an invaluable service by serving corn muffins or something similar, if you must have that little snack after the meeting, It is our hope that the public will not be misled when you are able to buy a cake, cookies, doughnuts or something similar and find that bread cannot be found. You cannot make bread from a popular brand of high grade cake floyr any more than you can make the popular high sugar content cake from flour that was milled primarily for the manufacture of bread. It is a peculiar feeling when we think that not so long ago we would do most anything for a nickel’s worth of business. And we feel gratified in the fact that the bread consuming public has been so understanding, and we feel sure that the time is not too far away when we will once again make our usual high hid for your patronage. Until then it is our aim to distribute our product as equitably and fairly as we possibly can and your cooperation is greatly appreciated, 4• ? • Sincerely* Stewart’s Bakery • '' 1 ' "" ' ■■■■IWUUW—XXIJ >llll . — V , I mi . ’** ■ ■ . ■< . j.,' i ■ '• I - ■< ...
