Flying Is Risky Business, ,4s Viewed bv Pedestrian ' A pedestrian crossed a trafflcfilled street while looking up at an airplane overhead. Three buses shaved him so closely that his beard didn't appear again for a week, the wind from six passing cars raised the nap on his last year's suit, one five-passenger car removed the shine from the back of his left shoe, and the drivers of seven other assorted makes, while stripping their gears in an effort | to avoid him, stripped their vocabularies of high-powered adjectives, j After stumbling over the curb- j stone on the farther side of the i road, the pedestrian was heard to \ murmur.

Farm [Topics || BIRTH RATE DROP HURTS MILK PRICE Need Seen for Increased Use by Adults. By LEI.AND SPENCER The decline in the number of young children is one reason for the reduced use of milk the past few years, according to the New York state college of agriculture. The declining birth rate calls for special efforts by the milk industry to push the general use of milk as a drink by adults, and especially to break down the tendency of adolescents to switch from milk to other drinks. Kftorts should aiso be coniiiiueu to find ways to get fluid milk at less cost to families of low incomes. This is the surest way to ward off the substitution of other forms of milk for fresh milk. As for dealers' "spreads" on retail milk in nine important markets of the United States, the spreads were reduced during the depression, but are now larger than ever. Tho inoK;iU?r J 1 ...V ..1UV11IIJ U1 11 nirv UCUIC1& IU reduce their spread on retail milk is the main reason for the less friendly public attitude toward them the past few years. Those acquainted with the situation, however, know that the chief obstacle to reducing the spread is high wages and the difficulty of using less labor, especially for retail delivery. As to the outlook for the milk industry during the next two years, the Cornell milk marketing specialists say much depends on the trend of commodity prices. Green Vegetables Needed For Well-Balanced Diet Even before the searchlight of food research was turned on leafy, green vegetables their value in human nutrition was pretty generally appreciated. Today they have an important place on the list of "protective foods"?a way nutritionists have of designating foods with a very high dietetic rating. Leafy, green vegetables merit a place on this list chiefly because they are rich in both iron and vitamin A. Many of them are also very rich sources of calcium. These three nutrients, according to a recent nation-wide survey, are food essentials in which American diets are often low. Green leaves are also excellent sources of vitamin G. Thrown in for good measure are considerable amounts of vitamin C and Vitamin Bl. Leafy vegetables, in addition, contribute bulk or roughage, some of which is usually desirable in the diets of persons in normal health. Aerial Photos Offer Accurate Farm Record With the advent of the Agricultural Adjustment act, and the need for accurate field measurement to check compliance with the soil conservation program, aerial photography came into its own as a cheap, ' quick, indisputable method of land mapping. Accurate field measurement is im- j portant under the AAA because conservation payments are made at a specified rate per acre of land planted. Prior to the use of air photography, a number of methods. ranging irom the old measuring wheel to surveying, were used. Cost of checking performance from the air is about one-third less than the earlier methods of land measurement. Air photography costs about four cents per acre as compared with six cents per acre under older measuring methods. 1 The cost is included as part of the administrative expense deducted from payments to farmers. Farm Facts Mushrooms have been cultivated commercially in the United States for less than a half century. * The importance of live stock in Ohio agriculture is shown by the .igures for farm income in 1938. Sales of all farm crops brought $63,881,000 but the sales of live stock and live stock products totaled $218,685,000. * Success of artificial insemination in breeding of dairy cattle, tried for the past three months in six southern-tier counties, has led officials of New York state college of agriculture to sanction the method for use by dairymen throughout the state.
