This statement by Dr. G. O. pMott, Purdue University pasture specialist, summarizes a five year study of, beef production which was begun in 1940 on the Miller Purdue Farm, one of the farms owned and operated by L Purdue University. He further added that ths r study shows that permanent pastures produce faster gains than grass-legume mixtures such as brome grass-alfalfa and timothy alfalfa.- Although the rate f of gain is in favor of permanent pastures, the carrying capacity (the number of animals which the pasture will carry per acre) of permanent pastures is much ATHLETES FOOT GERM , HOW TO KILL IT.

lower than on grass legume mixtures. Rotation grazing on permanent pasture has given little advantage over a continuous grazing system. The system of rotation involved three paddocks, each grazed two weeks and then allowed to recover for four weeks, before again being grazed. The difference in favor of rotation grazing was not great enough to make it profitable to divide the field and protect a source of water for the livestock. With bluegrass and white clover as the main plants in the mixture, continuous grazing will give early as good results as a rotation grazing system, but it must ,be kept in mind that rotation grazing is essential for maintaining alfalfa stands in le

gume or grass-legume, pastures. Comparison of gains on the two types of pasture in an average season and a drou?ir;y one is shown as follows: In 1944, ths daily gain on permanent bluegrass was 1.5 pounds compared to 1.2 for alfalfa-timothy, simi lar comparisons in 1942 gave 1.7 arid 1.0, and in 1945 were 1.4 and 1.2. In 1944 there was no differ ence between the two kinds of pasture due to the short grazing period as a result of the severe drought. EMERGENCY PASTURE FOR POULTRY FLOCK LAFAYETTE, Ind. Sudan grass for poultry pasture can help fill the feed gap. It is a good catch crop when parennial pastures such as alfalfa, ladino, or red clover are not available, advises J. W. Sicer, Purdue University extension p&ultryman. When used for the growing pullets best results are obtained by ' clipping the sudan grass when it is about eight to ten inches high. This encourages new, tender growth and keeps the sudan from becoming too r: Dugger

An even greater saving can be made Ty taking advantage of the possibilities of changing the ration so as to most fully utilize the excellent feed value of pasture. With good pasture, that is, tender " succulent pasture chickens do not need mashes fortified with high priced, syn thetic vitamins. Alfalfa meal.J and dried buttermilk can be omitted.

Army Battle Deaths Reach 229,238; . Unrecovered Prisoners, Missing 10,897

Casualty lists for World War II released by the War Department this month set the number of Army deaths at 229,238 for all theaters, and the total number of battle casualties of all types, including wounded, injured, captured and missing, at 943,418. The figures cover the period from December . 7, 1941, through j February 28, 1946. The difference of 719,135 between the total casualties and the total deaths represent G91,700 returned to duty, 16,273 currently carried as wounded, 3,083 former prisoners of war not yet accounted for, 7,814 missing in action still subject to search, and 310 who died while in captivity and were (already , counted in the total deaths figure. The figures j do not include such non-battle ' casualties as illness not the result j of action, training accidents, domestic plane crashes, and traffic i deaths and injuries traceable to i civil life. The War Department cautioned against considering the total casualty figure of 943,418 as reprerenting vthat many individuals. Many persons were iniured or wounded twice, and other j individuals fell into two or more I casualty, categories; for example, ! a man wounded and then capi tured is counted as two casualties. Figures on the number of separate , persons who became casualties were not available. The European Theater, With the greatest manpower, suffered 'the highest number of casualties 1 in "all brackets.

The Mediterranan Theater, with 178,602 total casualties and 43,200 deaths, was second in total casualties followed in' order by the Pacific Theater commands, the China-Burma-India Theater, AfricanMiddle East, United States Army Strategic Air Forces (the B-29 command in the CB1 Pacific areas, Alaskan Department and the Caribbean and South Atlantic areas. A total of 835 battle casualties, including 548 deaths were listed as "en route and not chargeable to any command." Th"e total number of persons killed in action reached 173,441. The other 55,797 included in the battle-deaths total of 229,238 were broken down as follows: 26,908 'died of wounds or injuries suffered in action; 9,617 died while captured as , prisoners of war or as internees of neutral countries; and 19,272 on whom an administrative finding of death was made under Public Law 490, 77th Congress, while in a missing status, or were reported dead. Personnel captured in all theaters totaled 124,927, of whom 111,917 were later returned to military control. Deaths in captivity numbered 9.617, leaving 3,393 listed in the report as ntill "captured." Of these 3,393, a total of 3,083 ware still missins on February 28, and 310 died of wounds but are already included as deaths in the 26,908 figure above. Missing persons totaled 51,115, but the end of the war has solved many of these cases. A total of 24,029 persons missing in action were returned to duty, and 19,272 were determined to have died. The dwindling list of persons still carried as missing new number 7,844, which, with the 3,083 unrecovered from captivity, totals 10,897. Of the total casualties of 948,418, officers ,suffered 96,066 rind enlisted personnel suffered 850,352.
