PRODUCTION ABOVE PRICE Government price fixing poli cies are blamed for wide fluctua tions in farm income, both as between products and defferent regions of the country. Income from some products has soared, while income from others has risen only slightly. Costs of pro ducing all farm products have shown large increases. But the farmer has worked long hours and kept up produc tion under handicaps and in equalities which would have been consideced ruinous to far less essential war activity. The American farmer does not plan his total productive effort on a wage and hour basis?he still produces as an independent citi zen who is trying to save his in dependent way of living even if he has to work longer and make less than those who produce only for a "price."

"When they mature they will bring to the coming generation the educational and other privileges that make America worth fighting for." Scabby Face One way to prevent "scabby face" (infectious dermatitis), a skin in fection usually beginning at the cor ners of the mouth and extending slowly over the face and body of suckling pigs, is to move farrow ing houses from old, contaminated lots to clean ground. It may also be helpful to clip the tusks of baby pigs to prevent them from injuring each other, since such wounds are often important sites of entry for the infectious agent, says the department of animal pathology and hygiene, University of Illinois college of agriculture. If the disease does appear, some of the affected pigs may be saved by a daily treatment with S per cent creosol applied with a medium-stiff brush. However, this treatment must start early, the department warns. DID MAN OR NATURE SET OFF VESUVIUS ? What awakened Mount Vesuvius from its slumber to bring terror again to the people of Italy?
