GET GOOD ADVIGE Like any other sport, fishing requires some skill, but even a little bit of practice will make the fishing venture more productive and more enjoyable. Most stores which sell fishing tackle also give good advice about equipment and fishing locations, types of lures to use, methods and hours for fishing and similar information. TRY A BIT OF PRACTICE It’s a good idea to rig up the rods and reels even before you leave for the fishing spot and — tying on a practice plug or small weight of some kind — make a few practice casts in the back yard. FOR MOM AND KIDS With small youngsters, you might not want to go after lunker bass on the first trip, though they haven’t yet identified a fisherman who would
turn down such a prize. Mom and the kids, if they haven’t fished much, get as much kick out of fishing for bream, sunfish, perch and crappies — all small species — as they do big fish anyway and it’s a, good way to break into the sport. READYING THE OUTFIT Fishing either in a boat or on shore or dock, it just takes a few moments to rig a line for fishing. With the line threaded through the guides of the rod, a small swivel can be attached to the end. The other end of the swivel can be attached to a small bobber. Another swivel can be attached to the other hole in the bobber and a leader attached to this swivel. A hook is added to the leader and when you add a worm, a salmon egg, a minnow or any other suitable bait to the hook, the outfit is ready for the first cast. DON’T LOSE PATIENCE If the bobber doesn’t start to dance the first few minutes, you need not get discouraged. Fish are sometimes curious characters and wary of intrusions into their habitat. A little patience and experimentation with different locations will usually land some fish in a few minutes. Generally, when you catch one fish in a certain place it’s a pretty good sign that there are some more right in the neighborhood, so keep casting in the same area until no strikes are felt for some time. A COMMON MISTAKE One of the most common mistakes made by novice anglers is allowing slack to creep
a Swingin' Happy Summer of Outdoor Livin'
into the line after the fish is hooked. This gives the fish a chance to shake the hook and get away. HO W TO PLAY FISH When playing a fish, the angler should try to keep the rod tip nearly vertical to keep slack out of the line. If the fish ma kes a run in the water the rod tip will be pulled toward the horizontal and line will be carried off the reel, but as soon as the fish stops his rush, the tip should be brought up again and the line retrieved. Eventually the fish becomes exhausted and can be netted or grasped t>y the gill covers and brought in. To top it all off, try filleting and cooking your fish over a campfire. Any angler can tell you that the taste of fresh ca ught fish cooked in the great outdoors is better than anything you could order in the finest seafood restaurant in the world. Cleaning - Storing Wedding Dress Have your wedding dress cleaned as soon after the wedding as possible, suggests Mrs. Billie Ellsworth, Extension clothing specialist at Purdue - Stains from perspiration and spilled punch set within hours and then often cannot be removed by the cleaners. So. be sure your mother or a friend takes the gown to the cleaners the same day as the wedding if possible. Then, store the dress in a plastic garment bag or have th’ cleaners seal it in a box designed for this purpose.

O.R. Bangs To Head T. B. Ass'n. O. R. Bangs, retired superintendent of Ligonier schools, has been named to head the Noble County Tuberculosis Association.

A. Willem nary, treasure. CHECK LOCAL CORN PRICES, ASC CHAIRMAN URGES Scott Horn, chairman of the Kosciusko county Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) committee today urged area corn producers to keep checking prices at their local stations to see if the recent market advances have made it advantageous to redeem their price-support loan and sell it on the market. For the past week com prices in the area have been running about 9 cents above the county loan rate of SI.OB per bushel. “This indicates to me,” Mr. Horn said ‘‘that some producers may find it to their economic advantage to redeem their loans.” The chairmarAioted U. S. Department of reports which showed that in two weeks prior to April 24 local market prices for com on a national average were about eight cents over the local loan rate. The prices quoted from a representative group of reporting points in major corn producing areas, ranged from a high of 18 cents above loan to a low of one cent below loan. Mr. Horn also said there was an additional increase in market prices immediately after release of the USDA report on April 24 which showed stocks of corn in storage as of April 1 totaling 3.0 billion bushels, down six per cent from a year earlier and considerably lower than anticipated. It was pointed out, however, that nationally producers have price-support loans outstanding on 812 million bushels of corn, more than half of it under “reseal” from 1967 and earlier crops years, and that the Commodity Credit Corporation owns 257 million bushels of corn. FIND AN ISLAND, ANYONE? A hydrographic team working along the Gulf of Mexico has an added chore in its survey of Mississippi Sound. That is to locate a missing island. The Isle au Petrie, shown on present nautical charts, reportedly has disappeared. It is somewhat unusual for a milelong island to vanish, just like that, but wind and wave may * have washed Isle au Petrie away. Shoals have been discovered near one end of where the island is indicated on the charts.

A Memorial Day Picnic Lunch A Memorial Day picnic at the 500 in Indianapolis, at a nearby park or even in your own back yard is a great way to start the summer holiday season. Keep the menu simple so that Mom can enjoy herself, suggests Marcile Allen, Purdue university extension foods and nutrition specialist. Such foods as peanut butter, fresh fruits and vegetables, and hard cooked eggs in the shell taste delicious in the fresh air. Canned meats and cheese spread in sealed jars are good choices, too. Remember to take small containers so there aren’t leftovers to worry about. Instead of taking bread for sandwiches, why not purchase crackers and have mini-sand-wiches?
