Snow And Ice
The recent 11 inch snow
shown in the pictures taken on
US #1 and US #158 was short
lived and slowed things up a
little but the recent sleet was
a humdinger and one of the
worst on record. As far as
can be determined, everyone
in Warren County was with
out electric and/or telephone
service from a few hours to
several days. There is no
doubt about it - some people
actually suffered and/or put to
great inconvenience attempt
ing to find substitute or sup
plemental sources of heat and
cooking facilities. All of this
focuses attention on the fact
that we should consider some
minimum substitute methods
of heating and cooking during
emergencies. This would also
become handy in Civil Defense
preparedness, severe storms
and national emergencies, etc.
Based on comments here
and there, almost 100% of the
damage was caused by trees
and limbs falling on wires. A
tour of the county indicated
that the damage was heavy in
the southern area of the coun
ty but was progressively worst
toward the Virginia line. It
is difficult to determine the
financial damage but it wai
heavy. There is a strongfeel
ing developing that the power
and telephone companies
should be given more authority
and encouragemont in clearing
the ;.ght-of-ways to eliminate
or decrease falling objects on
the wires. Trees are beautl

Soybeans
Soybeans are sold and con
sumed in many different coun
tries, and they are used in
many different ways.
We export nearly half of our
soybeans in one form or
another. Exports are in three
principal forms?the whole
beans, soybean oil and soybean
meal.
In Japan and other oriental
countries the whole beans are
made into highly nutritious
foods. But most of the beans
that are produced in the United
States are crushed and pro
cessed to obtain two proaucis
-oil and a high-protein meal.
A bushel of beans, 60 pounds,
usually yields about 10.8
pounds of oil and 47.5 pounds
of meal. The oil typically
makes up about 40 percent of
the value of the products while
the meal provides 60 percent.
The oil is used principally
for making salad and cooking
oils, frying and baking fats
(shortening), and margarine.
It competes with lard, butter,
cottonseed, oU, edible tallow,
peanut oil, corn oil, and other
edible fats and oils.
The meal is used for feed
for all kinds of livestock and
poultry. it provides high
quality protein to balance ra
tions that are made uplargely
of corn and other high-energy
feeds.
Soybean products are used
In the production and prepara
tion of most of the foods that
appear on our tables morning,
noon and night.
In discussing the world food
needs, It is predicted that the
United States will feed half of
the world in 20 years. Soy
beans will play a great part in
this area because of its diver
sity.

DANGEROUS SPOT
A gentle Quaker roused
from sleep by a strange noise
investigated and found a bur
glar at work. The Quaker
went for his gun and returned
to the room where the burglar
was occupying himself with the
family silver. He stood in the
doorway and announced quiet
ly: "Friend, I would do thee
no harm for the world, but thee
standest where I am about to
shoot."
SQUIRRELS TOO?
Stumped for the cause of a
blaze they extinguished in a
tree. Bloomington, ill., fire
men finally marked down the
origin as: "Squirrel smoking
in bed."
