4-H'ers learn about caring for horses

I By RONALD W. HOYT Extension Agent. 4-H & Youth Kosciusko County young people, age nine-19, are learning that caring for a horse is more than just a hobby in the 4-H Horse and Pony Program. Approximately 90 4-H’ers each year are involved in this exciting project. 4-H’ers spend on the average three to four hours a day during the school year caring for their horses. Much of this time is spent working directly with the horses. Feeding, bedding, health care, equipment care, riding and training are all a part of 4-H project’s informal “learn by doing” approach to education. Youth who participate in the 4-H horse and pony project also retain their love of animals and riding skills for life. Pleasure riding on weekends or vacations are just one of the many benefits of early training. The Kosciusko County 4-H Horse and Pony Club has set its meeting and activity schedule for 1987. January 6 —7 p.m., enrollment and judging team demonstration February 4 —7 p.m., vet talk March 3 —7 p.m., trailer and vehicle safety April 7 — 7 p.m., costume,

THE CAT decided to take a nap in the washing machine and nearly got the bath of her life. In all her 18 years. I’ve never known her to pay any attention to the washing machine. Usually I just dump a basket full of laundry into the machine without looking to see if there is anything in the tub. This time 1 saw something dark out of the corner of my eye. There was the cat all curled up and sound asleep. Good thing I saw her or she certainly would have been agitated. . TILL NEXT week ...

SSI or Supplemental Security Income is a Federal cash in- ’ come program for the blind, disabled, and people over age 65. • There are income and also asset limitations, if your income is low, ’ you should contact your closest Social Security office to see if you qualify. Q— My son graduates this year ■ from a special ed class. Is there . any help we can get for him? A— If your son is disabled, he may qualify for SSI. This is a ; monthly cash payment. Until he’s 18, we need to consider his parents income and assets. After 18, we just look at his own income and assets. Call your local Social < Security office to see if he’ll i qualify. Q — My parents aren’t able to live alone anymore so I’ve hired a lady to stay with them. Will I need to pay Social Security tax on the money I pay her? A — Yes. If you pay her more than SSO in a calendar quarter, you need to withhold Social Security tax plus match the amount yourself. Sweet music At the turn of the century, throughout the Advent season, the residents of Italy were awakened by the sweet and melancholy music of shepherd pipers who left the hills and journeyed into the towns to relive the picturesque Bible story.
