Anderson of Nealsvile, R- 1, Thomas Holland of Marion, R. 1 and T. W. Stacy of Nebo are mak ing preparations to turn their ice-damaged trees into cash. These farmers are cutting the ice-damaged trees into sawlogs pulpwood, or fuelwood, therefore remvoing the trees with broken tops that are likely to be damaged by rot or infested by insects. They J say this is one way of preventing j the spread of disease and insects and still salvage the broken trees. | It has been said that everybody j recognizes the damage done by floods, but perhaps few farmers realize that the management of they - farms has any influence on floods. A farm with established con servation • practices which includes woodland management in addition to stopping erosion on the fields and pastures contrbute the most to flood control.

Utilize Waste Spaces For Storage Purposes The storage problem is one of not only having sufficient space, but having it in convenient places where it is readily accessible. The trend now is toward building-in storage spaces for those things we | want to be available but out of con- I stant view. These spaces may have a double purpose. For example, closets fitted with built-in drawers and shelves can replace chests. In the wide hall that would be equally usable if it were narrower, storage space may be built-in along one wall, making good use of the wasted space. If it is a long hall and ceilings are high, the space might be planned to have one sec ! tlon for wrat>s, one for toys and i games, one for cleaning equip ment and perhaps the upper sec tion for seasonal storage. Another waste space often found in houses l is that under stairways. Good use can be made of this space if it is equipped with built-in drawers for stormy weather accessories or, where head room permits, a regu lar coat closet can be built. Such features may be camouflaged by paneling as a structural effect, j Back-of-doors spaces can be util ized if filled with racks for shoes, hats or ties, and shelves for purses, rubbers and utensils. Dining room corners can be easily converted to good storage spots. Sloping ceilings in upstairs bedrooms offer good spaces for built-in drawers. Ex amine your own house to locate its inconveniences. Search out the usable storage space and put it to work for you. With careful plan ning convenient storage space can be provided in almost any house. Resistant Cantaloupe Powdery mildew, the No. 1 canta loupe enemy in California’s Im- I perial valley, has been fairly con trolled by new varieties No. 5 and , No. 6 developed by the department | of agriculture and the California 1 agricultural experiment station. No. 5, released to the seed trade in the | fall of 1942, and No. 6, released two years later, have taken over almost all of this big cantaloupe acreage, j Bred up through successive cross ings of market melons with an inedible but mildew-resistant an cestor from India, these sturdy can taloupes are of good quality, yield well and ship well—especially No. 5. According to the department spe cialists, it seems likely that prac tically the entire cantaloupe area of | the valley, normally about 20,000 | acres, will be planted to “5” and in 1946. Rating Boilera Slightly more than 7 per cent of all the fire losses In homes during the last year were caused by over -1 heating of heating plants. Over ' heating. In most cases, is due to ' carelessness on the part of the per son in charge of the equipment or it may be due to undersized equip ment. A heating unit too small for the house is a fire hazard because of the necessity for pushing it dur ing extremely cold weather. To size a boiler properly, the contrac ! tor must have reliable data on the . load which the boiler will carry with 1 safety. One of the most significant contributions to safety in heat ing Is the uniform code for the test i ing and rating of boilers developed by the Institute of Boiler and Radi ator Manufacturers. Boilers tested in accordance with the code carry a plate indicating their rating. AGRICULTURE HEIFERS • It is especially desirable to feed heifers that are maintained for breeding purposes in a manner, to insure proper development and a strong, vigorous condition, and yet be economical- Feeding these animal some grain until they are 18 to 20 months old is generally advisable. Yearling females’ on pasture will make satisfactory i gains on 3 or 4 pounds of grain per head daily,» When pastures are short or dry the addition of 10 or 15 pounds of silage is desir- ] able. A grain mixture similar to , that suggested for growing bulls is satisfactory. , During winter months hay, straw, and silage should form the , roughage portion of the ration. A , grain ration composed of 5 pounds i of legume or mixed hay, 20 pounds of corn silage, and 5 pounds of grain, or one contain ing 8 pounds of legume hay, 5 of straw, 12 of corn silage, and 5 of grain should keep a 750-to 1,- 000-pound heifer in thrifty condi ion. If the silage is of good qual ity and contains considerable grain a ration composed of 25 pounds of silage, 6 pounds of mixed hay, and 1 pound of any of the pro tein concentrates should be sat faetory. When straw is fed in the absence of legume hay dur ing the winter months, it should be supplemented with a protein concentrate such as soybean, pea nut, linseed, or cottonseed meal. Heifers that are not suitable to keep in the herd should be placed in fattening pens and prepared for market rather than sold to breed ers. Lessons From God’s Word—God’s Instruc tions To Mothers 0 Judges: 13th Chapter. And there was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Dan ites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and bare not. And the angel of the Lord ap peared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now, thou art barren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceive, and bare a son. Now therefore beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any un clean thing: Men Manoah intreated the Lord, and said, O my Lord, Let the man of God which thou dids.t send come again unto us, and teach us what we shall do unto the child that shall be bom. And God hearkened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again unto the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah her husband, was not with her. And the woman made haste, and ran, and shewed her husband, i ■e*—: t; *' '£s&m -1 sHHLggg aHli. JffBPI t y m.

Art thou the man that speakest unto the woman And he said, I am. And Manoah said, Now let thy words come to pass. How shall we order the child, and how shall we do unto him And the angel of the Lord said unto Manoah, Os all that I said unto the woman let her beware. She may not eat of anything that cometh of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing: All that I commanded her let her observe. And the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson: and the child grew, and the. Lord blessed him. James 1:5. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upradeth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, noth ing wavering. For he that wav ereth is like a wave of the sea drivers with the wind and tossed. Psalms: 22:8. I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide with mine eye.
