Beef Tour Held In County Thursday Tour Is Conducted By Purdue Experts Paul Mitchell, extension marketing specialist, and Ken MacDonald, extension animal science specialist, both from Purdue, led 65 Decatur area farmers and 4-H pupils in a “beef tour" of three local farms Thursday morning. The afternoon session developed into a seminar discussion about experimental research on cattle and the general market picture. MacDonald told of the work on tranquilizers, supplementing current feding practices of beef cattle. He pointed out that tranquilizers, when used with hormones and antibiotics, usually produce the best results. Another facet of feeding under stoudy is a pelleting process to produce an ideal diet for the animals. The cost of this process prohibits its use on the general market, but strides ' are being made to reduce it. Hybreeds Developed Advances in adjusting the physiological make-up of cattle are

also of importance to cattle men, he said. Hormone deficiencies can be corrected, researchers report, improving the condition of below average cattle. He also explained a new nutrient-concentrated hybrid grain that greatly increases the yield over the normal types. Mitchell gave the audience at the Fairway restaurant a graphic display of the economical situation of beef cattle. He forecast a cattle raisers expansion, and the threat it may pose to the little farmer—the one with little volume. More beef is being raised in Indiana than in recent years, although the number of cattle has not increased proportionally. Because of better feeding conditions, cattle are gaining more weight. Mitchell also outlined the principles concerning a farmer s pro-; fit from beef herds. One way to make a profit cm cattle is to sell at a price higher than the original purchase price. Another way is to curb costs on feeding the cattle. By proper handling of the feeding, a profit can be , shown even if the margin between sales price and purchase price is unfavorable, assuming that other factors, such as weather, sickness. etc„ remain constant. Dependable factors, however, seld•om stay constant, giving way to the risk the individual farmer assumes in an operation of this nature. ' Beef Position Strengthened The way for beef to become the dominant consumer purchase in ( the meat field was attributed to several factors by Mitchell. Beef prices are slowly going up over the past five years, while the supply over these same years is also increasing. When a trend such as this contradicts the supply and demand law, then the beef industry has strengthened its position over pork and poultry. The morning tour, guided by county agricultural agent Leo Seltenright, started at the Ezra Kaehr farm, where a mechanized system of cattle feeding was demonstrated. At Wilbur Lengerich’s farm, the good use of native pasture was illustrated. The profit from this operation comes from not using grains as additional food. The pure bre<s herd at the Gerald Strickler farm was lucidly explained by Van Holsapple. part owner of the herd. The operation here disclosed good methods for obtaining breeding bulls. Paul Kohne, of Decatur, chairman of the county beef committee, Keith Ezra, teacher at Pleas? i ant Mills, and Bill Journay, teacher at Decatur, were among those participating in the tour.

Cases Os Vandalism Reported To Police Report Damage In Vacant Residence Three vandalism reports have been given to the city police department within the past two days, according to authorities. Mrs. Robert Witham, of 429 ! Line street, reported to the police ‘ Thursday that someone had entered her home at 721 Elm street, sometime during the evening Wednesday. Mrs. Witham reported today that the home was 1 entered again last night. ‘ The police that the ’ culprits entered the vacant home Wednesday evening between the hours of 6 o’clock and 12 mid- , night. Entry into the building > was gained by ripping off the i boards which had been placed 1 over the windows. Although fur- . niture still remains in the home, 5 the residents have not lived there . for three years. Clothes, papers, t and many other articles, were t strewn about the first floor struc- [ afore, however, nothing was known, . to be missing. r Again today a report was given t by Mrs. Witham that the Home' i had been entered last evening. j The police stated that soap powder had been- thrown throughout the home by the vandals, but ’ that nothing was reported taken. James Meyers, an employe of ’! the Holthouse Furniture company, I ’ reported to city police of recent incidents which have occurred at the business place within the past two or three months. Meyers stated that windows in the com-, pany truck and small windows in , the building have been shot out; with a B-B gun. The city police are conducting s an investigation of the incidents. I ' Farm Home Damaged , By Lightning Bolt A fire, resulting from a lightning bolt, caused major damage to the 5 interior of Roy Bixler’s home on 1 R. R, 1, about five miles north of - Decatur on U. S. 27 Thursday night ~ during the thunder and lightning storm. The Decatur fire department re- . ceived the call at 7:30 p.m. Officials, did not estimate, the cost of damage but said that it was considerable. No one was injured. SUGGESTS CITY nonflnued from pane one acted. About 50 persons crowded’into a small conference room Thursday as the Senate Judiciary A Committee held a public hearing on a bill introduced bv Sen. Marshall Kizer (D-Plymouth). Th? measure <SB39> would repeal Indiana statutes which relieved operators of motor vehicles from liability for injury or death of “guest” passengers through negligent acts. Under the 1929 law, a driver is not responsible for injuries sustained by a “guest” passenger through the driver’s negligence. But the law specifies that the owner, operator or person responsible for operation of the vehicle is responsible when the injury or death is “caused by wanton or wilful misconduct." Compares Louisville Rate Under broad interpretation of the law, a “guest” passenger is anyone “being transported without payment.” Representatives of most Indiana insurance companies appeared at the hearing in opposition to the bill. One of the most outspoken was R.H. Shelton, a representative of Meridian Mutual Insurance Co. Shelton contended that rates for the average Hoosier motorist would be increased as much as $lO a year if the bill became law. He said insurance firms would have to pay damages awarded to "guest” passengers and the cost would have to be passed on to the motorist. ! To illustrate his point, Shelton compared liability rates for Indianapolis and for Louisville, a city of comparable size in a state which has no “tfues” statute.

It provides justice and freedom as our constitution intended it for every individual. No man should be forced to join any organization in order to earn bread for his family." Sells charged that employers, through the Indiana State Chamber of Commerce, spent $300,000 for “right to work.” “No labor leader has gone to any state legislature or any congressional committee and asked for compuldory unionism,” Sells Said. “But employers came to you and asked for a compulsory open shop. “This ‘right to work’ is restrictive—a cancer on the body of a free and democratic labor movement in Indiana, and if allowed to foster and spread, will help to do what the intent of the law is—to eventually destroy freedom for workers.” Sponsored by “Neurotics” Bernard Mamet, Chicago, who admitted he receives SI,OOO a month from the Indiana Workers Protective Association, contended that “right to work” was championed by “neurotic and maladjusted persons” and was defeated in- five states at the election last fall. Sells said that the unions have lost 65,000 members in this state since enactment of toe law two years ago. Fbrmer 9th District Rep. Edward Mitchell, Evansville, testified to favor of the law. He contended that it had been no detriment to union membership. KEY DEMOCRATS (ontUiued from page one Congress. Former Secretary of Agriculture Charles F. Brannan to 1949 proposed direct- subsidy payments for perishable products which can’t be stored. In contrast, the plan being drafted by the Democratic senators would provide direct subsidies for growers of storable crops. Eliminate Storage Costa Backers contend this would eliminate toe piling up of government held surpluses and heavy storage costs. Market prices for wheat, cotton ’or whatever crop is covered by toe proposed plan would be regulated by supply-and-demand in a free market. Planting restrictions would be relaxed or abolished. The grower would get a Treasury check to make up the difference between the market price and an arbitrarily-fixed “fair” price. He would get compensatory payments only on that share of his production which was to proportion to toe domestic market. There would be a limit—probably no more than 25 thousand dollars —on toe amount of government payments that an Individual farmer could receive. Backers of the new plan figure that these two limitations would insure that toe new program would be less expensive than the present one which is costing the taxpayers more than five billion dollars , a-year. 4 ■ Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (DMinn.) was working on the new plan with Sen. Herman E. Talmadge (D-Ga.) and other members of toe Senate Agriculture Committee. ...
