Heat Can Melt Away Your Profits Cattle, hogs and poultry productive when the thermometer reads about 60 degrees. At higher temperatures, 75 and 80 degrees, they begin to have difficulty. Appetites lag and efficiency decreases. Provide all animals and poultry with plenty of fresh, clean water. Shade and wallows or sprinkler systems do most to help hogs keep cool. Place feed and water in ( shade, ft possible. It foay - or hay over the poultry house roof, if uninsulated. If birds hold wings ouj from body and pant, water the roof with < sprinklers or garden hose as quickly as you can. Provide shade and freedomfrom flies for cows. Dairy cows do best when temperature is 40 to 60 degrees. And, of course, be sure there's plenty of water. HEALTH JR HINT IvN "J There’s no profit in feeding worms. We recoinmend Purina Chek-r-ton Granules because most pullets are grown on ground used every year for chickens.. They almost all have some worms. It’s just good practice to ' worm your “ flock, and ’ right now is OJEK-RTOj . the time to Take away the usual Gro w i n Mash of Checker’Ettes and feed Chek-R-Ton for two days. Grass Fattening More Profitable Whenever good pasture is available, it is very profitable to put most weight on cattle with roughages. Grass is usually the lowest cost roughage; but grasses, hays and silage should be properly supplemented to get maximum utilization in the rumen. ■ k — Thousands of cattlemen have found a small amount of grain fed with one pound of Purina Steer Fatena daily per head along with lush pasture will produce heavier gains at lower cost than will pasture alone. As the season progresses and pasture becomes drier, it is a good idea to increase the amount of grain and Steer Fatena to keep cattle gaining and finishing. Tests Prove It! In a hecent feediiig-ou-range demonstration, steers fed Purina Steer Fatena returned a labor profit es 125.35 each. The grass-fed steers returned only $7.67 per steer. This

innings. The Braves had two big innings, scoring seven runs in the second and six in the fifth for their lopsided victory. The winners made only eight hits. Including Dellinger’s homer, but were aided by five walks and seven errors. Cail limited Adams Central to two singles. both by Stout. The Cardinals spoued Berne a pair of runs in the first inning but > then came back to register a. 10-2 i trlump in the nightcap. ' ' The Cardinals scored four in the first inning, and added clusters of two runs in each of the 1 second, fourth and sixth frames. ! Corah and Ritter limited Berne » to six hits, half of them in the i first inning. Bracey homered for ); the Cardinals, as four players

means that pasture was sold for $12.50 more per acre by using Steer Fatena. Ask for suggestions about grass feeding. Hogs Need Salt Hogs without salt gained only half as fast as those getting i t free-choice along with grain and supplement in recent tests. This work showed that a few pennies’ worth of salt saved 287 pounds of feed worth $6.37. Pnrina’s Dr. Hobart Geurin says, “we’ve found it most profitable to mix the right levels of salt in the supplement and in a mineral mixture fed tree-choice. Watch ’Em Die! That’s right, come in an see flies die right before your eyes in our new Dead display. Purpose of the display is to show you Purina’s wonderful new dry killer you just throw on the barn floor. It draws flies—then knocks 'em over dead in just a few •ecoiyiH. to see this new way to kill flies. Sprayed Cattle Make $3 to $6 More Per Head Extensive tests show that beef cattle that were protected from horn flies gained 15 to 30 pounds more than unprotected cattle during the grazing season. That means $3 to $6 extra income per head, at least, for a spray cost of about 10c. Purina Stock Spray gives long protection, is easy to mix and is low cost. Ask us to help you plan your fly control program now. Warm Weather Hen Management Tips K6ep hens comfortable during warm weather to avoid production slumps. Everything possible should be done to encourage birds to eat and drink. We suggest: 1. Check waterers to be sure there is sufficient cool, clean water at all times. 2. If birds ease oft eating mash, begin top feeding Checkers once or twice a day to stimulate appetite. 3. Change from mash to Checker-Ett form of lay, ing ration. Birds like it better — so eat more in hot weather. ’• . *_! .• 4. Burn lights 4n • the cool hours before dawn to encourage greater feed consumption- ■ - ■ 5. Open laying house to make it as cool as possible. Insulation often pays big dividends in keeping birds cooler in summer, wanner in win- , ter. . 6. Avoid crowding through culling of broody birds' and those in poor condition. Usually egg prices are low at this time of year, making it a good time to cull, anyway. 7. Check birds - frequently • for lice and mites. Treat. if necessary, with Purina Lice Powder. Or paint the roost with Purina Poultry insecticide. 8. Laying hens should be kept in the. laying house and not allowed to run. .9- Waste grain should be / given to pullets — not laying hens.

Yanks Favored By Schedule Os Next Few Days NEW YORK (INS) New York Yankees have been putting ’n their off hours studying the American League schedule, and they like the way it reads. Because, as nearly as they can make out, it spells P E N N A N T. The Yanks approve of-the idea of playing Washington and Baltimore, the weakest clubs in the league at the moment, which they will be doing for the next week. Second place Chicago has series with Detroit and Cleveland in he meantime, and the Yankees are hopeful that by the night of July 4 their present three-game leadwill be built into something much more lush. While that old saw about the July 4 leaders winning the pennant -doesn't always bold true, the Yankees can be excused if they put quite a bit of stock -in it. Four cf their ’ive recent pennant years, they've been on top at the traditional midway milepost. Monday was an off day for everyone in both majors, and the Yanks get another respite from the cares of the pennant race today. Elsewhere'in the American League, the sizzling Boston Red Sox-winners in 111 out ofyl4 on their last home stand-play a twinight doubleheader at Washington; Kansas City has an afternoon game at Cleveland, and Detroit makes a night invarion of Chicago. In the National League, what normally would be a big series between Brooklyn and the Giants at Ebbets Field loses much of its pressure aspect with the Giants 17*4 games behind and barely bolding onto fourth place. Most interest tonight will center in the starting appearance of karl Spooner, late season rookie sensation of 1554, who has demonstrated in five straight scoreless relief jobs that he's ready for a starting test for the Dodgers tonight Against Sal Maglie. Thf ’&owauk«e Braves entertain the Chicago Aibs. ill a nignt’game' with second place at stake. Pittsburgh is at Philadelphia, where they’ll fin-ish a suspended game of April 24 and then play the regularly scheduled contest under the lights. And Cincinnati invades St. Louis, also in a night affair. DON’T- TAKE A CHANCE TAKE PLENAMINS Smith Drug Co.

Funeral Thursday For Boston Player LYNN, Mass. (INS) — Arrangements were completed today for funeral services Thursday afternoon for Harry Agganis, Boston Red Sox first basejnan and an All-Americari quarterback at Boston University. Services for the 25-year-oid Agganis. who succumbed to a massive pulmonary embolism at Sancta Marla hospital, Cambridge, will be held in St. George's Greek Orthodox church, with burial in Pine Grove cemetery,, where his father is buried. Red Sox general manager Joe Cronin said manager Mike Higgins and a delegation of Sox’ players will attend the funeral services. Agganis’ death at Sancta Maria hospital, Cambridge, was blamed by doctors on a massive pulmonary embolism—a clot that shut off the supply of blood to the lungs. What caused the embolism Is something that may never be known. Bill Joyce, Harry’s former football mentor and one of his closest friends, said that in the last few games Harry played with the Sox, he suffered such terrific chest pains that he was unable to see signals made by his teammates and coaches. Senators Practice Wednesday Evening The Senators of the Little League yrill hold a practice session at 5 o’clock Wednesday evening at McMillen field. All team members are asked to be present. CAMDEN, N. J. (INS) — A lightning bolt struck In the midst of 15 Little League baseball players at Stratford bourough, near Camden, Monday night, killing a 13- year-old boy and dazing two others.
