QUESTION: What aro some feed substitutes for the war-time ration? pfc ANSWER: Ground yeUow corn pound for pound, says C. F. Parrish, Extension poultry specialist of N. a State College. Ground wheat may be substituted for wheat bran and wheat middling, pound for pound, or vice vena, .the wheat should be coarsely ground. Ground barley or a combination of oata and barley may replace ground oata, pound for po^pid. Barley may be substituted for a part of the wheat, but barley should not constitute more than 40 percent of the total grain mixture. QUESTION: When should lespedeza be harvested for hay T ANSWER: Lespedesa should be cut when in early bloom, or when 12 inches high, whichever occurs first, says E. C. Blair, Extension agronomist of State College. To leave it longer results in loss of the lower leaves and a poorer grade at hay. QUESTION: May cull sweet potatoes be fed to hogs? ANSWER: Yes, says E. V. Vestal, Extension swine specialist of State College. Cull sweet potatoes or "cooked Irish potatoes can replace onehalf of the grain ration for hogs with good results. If green gracing is not available, waste garden or truck crope can be fed profitably. Waste kitchen scraps are often sufficient to furnish feed for one or more pigs. However, the scraps or waste, should not contain soapy dish water, glass, coffee grounds, or fish bones. FEATHERS A plea to save all kinds of poultry feathers for comforters, millinery and military purposes is made by poultry specialists. POTATOES Sweet potato meal for feeding livestock is proving successful in Louisiana. SHEEPSKINS It requires 12 shearlings, or sheepskins, to outfit as Army pilot, reports the U. S. Department of Agriculture. .. The trouble with round tables and forums is that the fellow next to you never directs a remark to the group but pours a torrent of comment into your near-side, ear, thus short-circuiting your reception of everything else.

College. ■ ' :' ,ST Selective Service : Selective Service Director Mid draft beards will begin calling nen with dependents before Christmas. He said single man with "secmdary" dependents, such as aged or :rippled relatives, will be called first; married men whose wives work, next; then nun with dependent wives; and finally men who have wives and children. He said the reservoir of l-A men throughout the country is practically exhausted." Selective Service headquarters said Class 1-B (men fit for limited military service only) will be eliminated, and beginning September 1, all registrants who are not totally disqualified will be reclassified in. l-A, while thoee not raited for any military service will be placed m 4-F. In the case of men reclassified in l-A, the array will determine after induction whether they will be assigned to full or limited service. Stabilisation of Farm Prices Secretary of Agriculture Wickard said he would approve a plan to liveifcock ceiling prices which "must not permit abnormal profits to anyone in the industry at the expense of the producers or consumers." Mr. Wickard also said he now favors repeal of the provision of the price control act "that prohibits ceilings on processed farm products if the ceiling price reflects a farm price of lestfj than 110 percent of parity." He said farm prices "have reached parity on an average." The WPB food requirements committee asked the artped forces, the Lend-Lease Administration, and the War Production Board to collaborate in working out a program for allocation of all government meat purchases aa equitably as possible among federally inspected packer®. The Agricultural Marketing Administration bought $137,900>0<W worth of foodstuffs during July for the United Nations and other requires rats, including 80,000 pounds <ft dehydrated beef. Rationing Tire quotas will have to follow a downward trend the rest of this year to keep within the amount of rubber earmarked by the WPB for the purpose, the Office of Price Administration said. The Office asked local rationing boards for the "strictest possible interpretation" of a recent amendment to tire rationing regulations restricting truck eligibility to vehicles essential to the war effort or public health and safety. Oil and Gasoline WPB Chairman Nelson appointed under Secretary of War Patterson, Petroleum Coordinator Ickes and Price Administrator Henderson as a committee to determine whether i fuel oil should be rationed in the | East Coast Area this winter. Because of the shortage of fuel oil in the area, Mr. lekes prohibited the hauling of automobile gasoline by rail in 20 middle Western and Southwestern States in order to divert enough tank cars to carry 100,000 barrels of fuel oil daily to the rationed areft.* If the withdrawal of these 5,000 to 7,000 tank can creates a shortage,, rationing should be ex-1 tended, Mr. Ickes said. I "That is why," says Dr. Peterson, 'the recent enrichment of white flour with Vitamin B-l and calcium is so important to the health of the American people in war-time. Also, the British Pood Control Commission has ruled that all white bread used in Bogland must be enriched." Dr. Peterson explained that Vitamin B-l is composed of a substance known as "thiamin." He said: "Thia-min is concerned with the breakdown of foods that furnish energy for the body processes. Furthermore, since It has been shown that the daily requirement of tikis vitamin depends upon the amount of energy expanded, it is Imperative that the inclusion of thiamin in adequate amounts in the diet of our people be assured. "Food processors in the United States have long sought to please our palates without much consideration for our vitamin needs," the State College nutritionist asserted. "We have acquired a taste for many vitamin-deficient foods. "Since it is unlikely that we will ever be able to successfully educate the public taste to a point where Unprocessed foods would be really enjoyed, it is time that more serious consideration be given to the thought of fortifying our processed foods. This can be accomplished, in most cases, by slight changes in manufacturing methods, such as the enrichment of bread."
