the far west becomes a little alanhing. Well, we still have peaches and cherries to fill the larder, and dodge inflation. —-0 — July is coming closer and closer and Secretory Humphrey is getting a little nervous as are many others. They will have to increase the national debt limit a billion or two and they have to get ready for next year when we elect a president again. They have openly announced they will have to reduce taxes next year because of the campaign and so are willing to boost the debt limit so they can do it. Surely that's not a very sound method of procedure. The U. S. Census bureau, with the University of Wisconsin cooperating, come up with these interesting statistics concerning a man’s life. It you are average, which most of us are, even though we hate to admit it. you spend twenty years of your lite working and twenty years sleeping. You also spend sixteen years playing and above all things, you spend 8,760 hours or one full year of your life on the telephone. We wonder how much of a woman’s time is spent on the telephone? Perhaps the Census bureau didn’t want to get into that problem. 0 0f— A serious civic problem is developing in numerous small towns of the middlewest. Motion picture theaters, finding it hard to compete with home television copetition are being forced to close their doors. The movie house, long an institution and a popular amusement place tor persons of all ages has been closed in many" smaller towns. Hagerstown, down near Richmond was faced with the same situation and when the management announced the closing, the townspeople didn't give it a thought After a tew weeks, however, without a motion picture theater, there was a noticeable change in the town. The Perfect Circle Piston Ring Co., chief industry of that town, spearheaded a drive to reopen the movie house. Now Hagerstown has a place to see good, clean entertainment again and attendance has increased considerably since the reopening.

County Agent's Column •— , g Grass Bllago Ono of the meet common problems encountered in making grass silage of good quality is determing the percentage of moisture, says Leo Seltenright, county agent. When the moisture content is above 65 .percent, seepage flow usually starts which reduces the feeding value and is undesirable in the feed lot. The bureau of dairy industry reports a simple method which can be used very effectively. The test consists of compressing chopped forage tightly into a small ball between the hands for 20-30 seconds and then releasing the pressure suddenly. Condition of the ball and the corresponding moisture levels are as follows: When the ball holds its shape and there is considerable free Juiee —70% moisture. When the ball holds its shape hut there is very little free juice -70-75%. When the ball falls apart slowly and there is po free juice—--60-70%. When the ball falls apart rapidly—below 60%. Good Roughage, Many Hoosier dairymen should plan to Increase their supply of good quality roughages for the 1955-56 winter feeding period, says Leo N. Seltenright, county agent Unfortunately many herds are being increased in size without sufficient attention being paid to the most important part of the dairy ration—roughage. Attempting to make up for a shortage of roughage, increased amounts of grain are Usually fed. Increading the size of the herd at the expense of the amount and quality of roughages is likely to result in both disappointment and financial loss. Hay, silage and pasture are cheaper sources of milk production than concentrates. They provide total digestible nutrients at a much lower rate per ton. Many herds producing less than 6000-8000 pounds of milk per year can stand to have the annual grain allowance reduced without any appreciable loss in net income. Using the annual report of more than 50 herds on test in one Central Indiana county, Seltenright points out that although the state average of hay equivalent (1 ton of hay'equals 3 tons of silage) is 5.200 pounds per cow, only 58 percent of the herds tested received this amounL Increasing.the yearly hay equivalent to at least 6000 pounds per cow is a desirable goal for all dairymen to set for 1955-56. Assuming an average non-grazing period of 200 days each year this amounts to 30 pounds per cow daily. Fifteen pounds of hay and 45-50 pounds of silage per day will supply this desired amount. If silage is not available, feeding hay

in smaller amounts at more frequent intervals la likely to result in less waste. Liberal supplies of fertiliser applied to hay and pasture fields annually will help to increase the tonnage. Any surplus pasture producing during May and June can be made into grass silage. Homemaking Tips By Miss Bertha Landis Homo Demonstration Agent June is dairy month. Do you get enough milk and milk products in your daily diet? Milk is one of the best foods you can get. It furnishes about 100 different nutri-ents—-a long list of vitamins, and minerals, fats, sugars, and highquality proteins. Milk is outstandingly important for three nutrients that nutritionists recommend in quantities larger than many people consume. These are: the mineral calcium, the vitamin riboflavin, and protein. Three-fourths of the calcium or riboflavin without using a good deal gs milk. The many nutrients in milk are in such favorable proportions that they can readily join into efficient

work teams tor the body’s nutrition—the way that nutrients mast combine to do many important tasks tor your body’s growth if you are young, and tor continuous repair at all ages. The recommended amounts of milk for daily use are: children, 3 to 4 cups; teen-agers, 1 quart or more; adults, all ages, 2 eups or more; expectant mothers, 4 or more cups; and nursing mothers, 6 cups. Milk products, such as cheese and ice cream, sad prepared dishes made with milk can provide some of this quota. So can skim milk or buttermilk, especially for prospective mothers, or others Mr whom weight control may be a problem. Nowadays, most of the milk sold in stores is safe guarded by pasteurization, and so are ice cream, buttes, and cream. Raw milk may occasionally contain germs that cause undulant fever, tuberculosis, septic sore throat, or other infections, even with all the care taken to keep cows healthy and milk clean. Pasteurization is the additional protection that makes fresh milk a safe food. Let’s try especially hard to use more milk in our diets, during this dairy month of June.

The popcorn and candy concession is an institution in today’s theater. What you should do is to try to avoid as much as you can the annoying rattle of paper and audible munching of your food. Q. When a man is taking guests for an auto ride, who pays the bridge and special highway tolls? A. The host usually pays these. However, if one of the guests has the correct change and the toll booth is on his side of the car, he
