"I saw it advertised in The Press." Urges Increased Corn Production In Macon; Aid To Defense Effort J. H. Enloe, Jr., chairman of the county agricultural mobili zation committee, this week urged Macon County farmers to Increase their 1952 corn pro duction by using the best avail able varieties, fertilizers, and cultural practices. Farmers in the state need to plant 2,300,000 acres of corn in 1952, an increase of about five per cent over the 1951 acreage, he said. "Without a plentiful supply of feed grains," he continued, "it will not be possible to main tain the production of meat, eggs, and milk that will be needed by our increasing popu lation in a high employment period. Any shortage of feed will result in a downward ad justment in the production of these animal productions adding to inflationary measures and interfering with the progress of our national defense pro gram." At the request of Secretary of Agriculture Brannan, a na tion-wide effort is being under taken to increase feed grain production and all agricultural agencies are cooperating in this to lend all possible assistance to farmers In planning for higher corn production In 1952, the county chairman said. * State College Answers Timely Farm Questions Q. Should milk cows be graz ed on rape? A. Dr. George H. Wise, head, animal nutrition section, State college, says rape is used chief ly as a pasture crop for swine and sheep. It is also satisfac tory for cattle, but there are several precautions to observe. If the cows are milking, they should be removed from the rape pasture four or five hours before milking to prevent off flavor of milk. Plenty of salt should be provided to check any undue laxative effect. Finally, to reduce chances of bloat, the animals should be fed dry coarse feeds, such as hay, be fore they are put on the rape pasture. Dr. Wise says it is advisable to check the animals frequent ly during the first several days to detect any bloating before it reaches the advanced stage. Q. What are package bees? A. These are just ordinary ?bees put up in packages for shipment and sold by the pound. A queen bee usually ac companies the shipment in a separate little cage of her own. W. A. Stephens, beekeeping specialist for State College Ex That's what industry-accepted road and laboratory tests pro7e.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers The word "energy" in con nection with food often Is mis understood because It has many meanings. To the nutritionist as to the engineer, energy means power from fuel or heat, and often Is measured in the calories or heat units. But more popular meanings of the word "energy" are vim, vigor, vitality, or even spirit. Thus a homemaker may con clude that the more "energy foods" her children eat, the more energetic they will be. And she may suppose that a food described as a "quick source of energy" is needed especially by anyone who is fa tigued or listless. Just the contrary may be true, nutritionists tell us. The so-called "high energy foods" are the starches, sugars and fats, because they are the chief sources of fuel or calories for the activity of the body. But if used in excess these foods are stored as fat; thus they may make a person feel less ener getic. Too many of these "en ergy foods" in the diet may cut down on other nutrients, such as vitamins or protein which the body needs for nutritional well-being and normal vim and vigor. The term "fuel food" may be preferable to the more widely used "energy food" to prevent this common misunderstanding.
