A Day's Work Offered Free to Government HOUGHTON LAKE, Mich. - The little town of Houghton Lake, population 290, is in the Michigan resort area. Eight months ago the Hudson Impression Die Company located there. Recently Andrew J. Hudson, president of the firm, said he had offered a day’s work free each week, “with no strings attached’’, to the government. The employees, most of them well-to-do die makers, will contribute one free day. The wage and hour division of the labor department said informally in Washington that the die workers may contribute a day’s pay to the government, but not their labor. They would have to be paid. That money could be turned over to the government. As for the employer, there was nothing to stop him from giving whatever profits he desired to the government. Air Force Men Aid Little Kansas Town Clean Up After Rood VALENCIA. Kan.—This little town is clean today, thanks to the efforts of the Bellevue, Nebr. “Muckateers" and a detachment of airmen from Offutt air force base. The men moved into Valencia with heavy equipment for the outside work and shovels for the inside of the houses. Valencia is an unincorporated town of about 75, nestled in a curve in the Kaw River, 15 miles west of Topeka. When the flood waters started rising in early June, the river overflowed and swept through the town for several weeks. When the waters receded, two buildings were gone without a trace and the others were surrounded by debris and had several feet of mud in them. The “Muckateers” worked for four days. When they left, all the houses that are being lived in had been mucked out The home of 69-year-old Mrs. Libby Davis was one of the first to be cleaned. Mrs. Davis has lived in Valencia for all but 13 years of her life and moved into her present home in 1940. The house she was born in was one of the buildings that was swept away, leaving only a large hole to show where it was. Mrs. Davis has been afflicted with arthritis since her husband died five years ago, yet when the "Muckateers" arrived they found her trying to shovel out the four feet of mud in Now her house has been cleared of mud and silt, her yard has been leveled and the debris has been piled in a field in back of her home where it will be burned when it dries. Mrs. Davis expressed her gratitude to the "Muckateers" as they were cleaning out her house. "It’s just wonderful,” she said. "I never could have done this myself. God bless you all." Another long-time resident is T. W. Glidewell who has lived in Valencia all his life. He built his house there in 1903, after the previous record flood. "My father told me that I’d be flooded out if I built there,” he said. “I never thought it would be this bad.” Mrs. Glidewell, the night operator across the river in Silver Lake, looked at the cracked frame and the broken furniture and lamented, “I thought we were getting ready to enjoy life, but we’ve left to enjoy now." She estimated that they lost over $2,000 in furniture, much of it new. All their clothing was ruined and Mrs. Glidewell said the only things she saved were two dresses. All but two of the buildings in Valencia were hit hard by the waters from the rampaging Kaw. A couple of families gave up when they saw the damage and left for good. Others had no place to go and were faced with the monumental task of cleaning up. 1,400 Barrel-a-Day Ojl Well Drilled in Montana SIDNEY, Mont. — Results furnished by a test well of the Shell Oil company 15 miles northwest of nearby Richey seem to offer a new area of oil prosperity for this section of Montana. Observers believed that the leasing program had reached its peak previously. However, news of the strike at 1,000 to 1,400 barrels a day spread like a forest fire and oil lease people began to flood the Sidney area, deserting other unproven fields. J. J. Pickel. engineer in charge .of the successful wildcat well between Richey and Vida, said the first oil was obtained by a drill stem test and flowed at a very substantial rate. Rough estimate* placed the gravity of the oil at 38. Sidney residents are optimistic and believe that the test well will prove the area a rich oil-producing region. Such a development would make Sidney a commanding point, as evidenced by the leasing activities centered here for previous activities in the so-called Williston basin. Oil-minded consider the Richland county area one of sensational production possibilities, and prosperity is the outlook on all fronts. Hanging Your Own Wallpaper?

Fleming, Indianapolis attorney and newspaperman, as Indiana State Chairman of the 1952 March of Dimes, was announced today by Basil O’Connor, president of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis.

Mr. Fleming began has newspaper career 36 years ago on the Shelbyville Democrat. Shortlv after he joined the staff he became city editor, and remained with the paper the next 16 years. He was appointed United States Collector of Customs in Indianapolis in 1933 and served in that post for six years. During this time he studied law at Benjamin Harrison Law School, and served as president of the Hoosier State Press Association. In 1939.

ing said, "14 Indiana chapters exhausted their funds by Sept. Ist and had received $66,612 from national headquarters to continue , financial assistance to the families ‘ of polio patients.” Ten respirators and two hot pack machines were on loan to Indiana hospitals from the Foundation and thirty-five specially recruited polio-trained nurses were on duty in the state, their salaries paid by the March of Dimes organization, Mr. Fleming said. As of September 10 this year 195 polio cases had been reported in Indiana. This compares with 202 on record the same' date in 1950. In each of the last two years the National Foundation * has spent in research, education and patient care $5,000,000 more than it has received from the March of Dimes. “In the face of the current large number of cases being reported in many parts of the nation, including Indiana, we are faced with only one course of action,” Mr. Fleming declared. “We cannot justify cutting down our investment in either scientific research designed to banish polio from the earth, nor can we curtail either our public or professional education programs. Certainly the public does not want, us to withhold the best possible medical and hospital care from every polio patient who needs it. “Our only course is to make I the 1952 March of Dimes the most successful in the 14-year history of the Foundation. I am confident that the people of Indiana will give more lavishly this year than ever before.” Ensile Corn Crop At Right Stage Lafayette, Sept. 18. — Dairy cows will not turn up their bovine noses at corn silage if the silage is made according to recommended methods. Keller Beeson, extension agronomist at Purdue University, says that some farmers may be fooled by the green leaves of their corn in September and think it is still immature enough for silage. He says that thrifty hybrids on fertile soil will remain green after the proper ensiling stage, and grain dries rapidly then. Farmers are warned to watch the denting as a guide to the right stage for cutting. Such grain is in the soft dough stage. The agronomist adds that nitrogen deficient or drought handicapped corn may show many dry leaves earlier than this stage and should be ensiled before loss of dry leaves will reduce silage yields seriously. Corn cut too early will make silage that’s sour and soggy. Corn cut too late makes coarse, tough silage that spoils easily. The silo should have been inspected first to see that it is in good condition. The walls and bottom must be clean and tight. Clean tight walls keep out air and help reduce spoilage. Beeson says. Start when the silo is half-filled, and tramp thoroughly until it is full. Cover the top with weighted-down roll roofing or heavy kraft paper to keep out the air. Mrs. B/W. Place of Ft.
