DAYLIGHT SAVING Daylight saving time has gone into effect in those sections where it is customary to reckon by that method during summer months. First begun about the time of the World War, it was inaugurated for the purpose of allowing work ers to begin their day’s toil ear lier and get in the required hours before sunset.

It is claimed that psy chology has something to do with it. Farmers, however, have learn . ed that one can’t fool the sun, ev en with psychology. NEW USE FOR MENHADEN Down on the coast fishermen are not too well pleased when men haden are the main catch. For merly these fish have been used mainly for fertilizer and the price is low, compared to those pre ferred for eating. But since the war has almost doubled the price of cod liver oil, experiments made at State College Experiment Station are of special value. Dr. J. O. Halverson and Roy Dearstyne have found that oil from menhaden has about one fourth the vitamin A content that is in cod liver oil, and may be safely used as a substitute in poul try feeds. Several large manu facturers have already asked about the menhaden oil and a new mar ket for the product may be devel oped. CATTLE Demonstration farmers o£ Madi son County are taking the lead in an active campaign to place better cattle in the county, says John S. Hollamon, assistant farm agent. .h y., r ' ■ The domestic wheat supply in 1940-41 is expected to total approx imately 900,000,000 bushels, esti mated the U. S. Bureau of Agricul tural Economics.
