October

' FARM# NOTES!

By DON FRANTZ KoM?iusko County Extension Agent Planning is well under way for winter agricultural meetings and several key ones have been. planned. We do not have final word on them as it depends upon whether the personnel we have requested arc availabl ?.. We hope to haw a short course consisting of at feast six hours on Dairy Nutrition. Most of the milk in ItK..ana is produced in the north cast oart of the state. Kosciusko county has increased in milk production but the number of herds have decreased. Our people believe that the trend cf reduction may be starting to stab lize and the dairy* man of the future are already in j the bustn Sir.ce feed costs make up about two-thirds of the cost of producing milk we believe that some very profitable time can be nt in studying th? feeds and feeding of dairy cattle. It looks like we will have at least three meetings, on this. We had not ought to be satisfied with our corn production. We have a large deficit of feed in the county. Two elevators alone in the countyuse an estimated 6.000 bushels of 1 corn a week and the farther it comes from, the more it costs. Our yields have not kept pace with the rest of the state. We want to pull in some of the many fertilizer dealers, sod testing services, salesmen and others into a concentrated effort to get more corn at the same.acreage at a lower costs. I have a suspicion tiiat many of the experts are simply , salesmen and we d ought to get back to some basic facts in corn ; production. This will probably take the place of a day long conference with plenty of reference material available. A new and growing phase of marketing is in the use of futures contracts. We plan to start with an educational prognun on using futur-1 es. We expect to do it by starting with bankers and feed dealers that; v.ould be involved with large contracts and the financing of them A next step would be in farmer use of contracts in grain, beef and pork, all of which are available. The National Farmers Organization and Farmers Union are sponsoring an interesting looking meeting October 38 at the Warsaw Community high school auditorium at 7:30 p.m. Arnold Paulson of Granite Falls, Minn., will analyze what is happening in rural America, particularly to the small towns. He was the outstanding young man of his state a few years ago and is widely acclaimed as a public speaker on rural affairs. A family dinner was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. V. F. <D»ck> Brower of east Barbee lake on Sunday of last week. In addition to almost all of their children and families, other guests over the week end were Mr. and Mrs. Paul Ramsey of Lansing. Mich , and Sechrist lake on Saturday and Mr. and Mrs. Orville Haines of Laverne, Calif., on Sunday afternoon.

ular at this time of year! Many times these youngsters have on masks that block their vision. Parents should check on the safety of youngsters prior to allowing them on the streets. Young children should have a teenager or an adult with them. They should have a mask that allows for proper vision — even if you have to cut the holes a little larger. A flashlight also helps and allows drivers to see the trick or treater better.

McFadden Challenges Opponent To Prove He Supported HDEA

WABASH, Ind. — Second District Democratic Congressional nominee Ralph G. McFadden challenged his opponent today to “back up with facts” the statement that he supported passage of the National Defense Education Act. McFadden, speaking at a meeting of Democratic precinct workers at Wabash County Democratic Headquarters, said has opponent stated in a speech at St. Joseph’s college that he supported DEA and other programs to aid higher education. “The way I read ft,” McFadden said, “my opponent voted against higher education at every’ turn. After the launching of the Russian sputnik, Congress realized that our education was lagging behind that of the Russians in some areas. So Congress proposed the National Defense Education Act — funds to enable needy students to continue their education; graduate fellowslaps to students preparing to teach in colleges; funds to improve public school facilities in science, mathematics, and modern languages. “On August 8, 1958. a motion to consider the bill, came before the House of Representatives. It passed 266-to-108. My opponent voted ‘no’. The next day, a motion was made to kill the bill. This motion was defeated. l-KHo-233. My opponent voted to kill the bill. On August 23, 1958. the bill came before the House of Representatives in final form. “The bill passed, 212-to-35. My opponent voted ‘no. “Now,” McFadden said, "those were the only votes on the NDEA, except in later years to extend it beyond the original three-year program. Could it be tivat my opponent has simply had a failure of menory? "Could it be that he also has forgotten that in 1963 he opposed extension of the NDEA? Could it be that he does not recall that in 1962 he voted against a bill, which now is law. to provide grants and loans to colleges for classroom and library construction and for student loans? “Could it be that he does not recall that in 1963, he voted against a bill, which now is law, to provide financial assistance to medical and dental schools? “Has he also forgotten that in 1965. he voted against a bill, which is now law, to establish a National Teacher Corps? And against a bill, new law, to provide assistance to elementary and secondary schools? .And that in 1966, he voted against a bill, now law, to provide fellowships enabling Americans to take special studies in foreign affairs? “I challenge my opponent to explain this lasp of memory”, Mr Fadden said. “He has consistently and irrevocably opposed every major proposal to assist elementary, secondary and higher education in the second district, in Indiana, and in the United States.

“If education isn't important; if ! it is not necessary- to see that our children are properly prepared fcr the space age; then my opponent should continue in office. But if our people want a voice in step with here and now, then I ask their support.” LOWER DRAFT CALL FOR DECEMBER The Defense Department on Wednesday. Oct. 12, issued a low draft call for the month of December for 12,100 men. reduced by 6,100 the program by singing “The Lord Is •My Shepherd".

43,700 quota previously set for November. The new November draft quota, 37,600 is still above the average of 33,500 inductions for the past six months. The October draft is at a post Korea record of 49,200. To head off speculation that the draft reduction might mean a slowdown in the U. S. military buildup for Viet Nam the department announced inductions would be back up to at least 30,000 in January. Hie armed forces increased from 2,686.000 to 3,184.000 in the tet year. Officiate said the buildup will continue at this rate until there is a change in the Vietnamese war situation. December inductions will be completed by December 16 to avoid the entrance of inductees into active duty during the holiday season. Gallagher Charges Demos Quotes Ex-Gov. Schricker MICHIGAN cm’ - John P. Gallagher. Republican candidate for auditor of state, charged here Monday, Oct. 24, that two years of complete domination of Indiana state government by Democrats has the record filled "with “broken promises and unfulfilled platform pledges, intermingled with high taxes, high crime rate and a confused public”. Gallagher was toe principal speaker at a Republican rally sponsored by the Women’s Republican Cubs at Laporte, and surrounding counties. “Only recently we read in the newspapers, heard on the radio and saw on television the President of the United States, in one of his admitted political speeches, condemn the Republican party'’as a ‘party of fear’,” Gallagher s&d. "I don’t question and I don't believe there is a citizen in America that does not admit he has fear regal’dless of his political belief. We have fear for the future of this country, we have fear of venturing tajo the outdoors after night fall.- we-have fear as to our ability’to inref the ever increasing cost of living. in fact the American people just have fear, period. “That, fear of the future is not confined to Republicans alone. One of the most venerable Hoosiers of our time, toe only man in Indiana since 1853 to have had the honor of serving two terms as Governor of Indiana, and a Democrat, and I refer to the Honorable Henry F. Schricker, of your neighboring Starke county, who September 15, 1966, told an audience at Ellettsville and I quote: T am more concerned tonight about toe future of America than I have ever been in my live.* ” Gallagher continued. “On October 23, 1964, the Democrat candidate for governor told the voters ‘our property taxes were too high before the tax mess was passed, and the property taxes, in most

cases, are still too high.’ To that Governor. I say ‘Amen’, and I think I can tell the people of Indiana I find no prospect of relief from these high taxes until a Republican legislature puts on the brakes, institutes a program of economy, halts excessive spending and overpopulated payrolls and gives real tax relief.” FARM BUREAU HONORS 4-H AND FFA CLUBS The Van Buren - Jefferson township Farm Bureau met October 18 in toe Milford elementary school to honor the 4-H and FFA clubs of the area.
