We Name 'Em, You Observe ’Em
Few people realize the im
portance of the time in which
they live. And fewer people
know of the momentous periods
in this modem that are
marked by special days, weeks
or months. The year is full of
such periods, and to enlighten
those living in semi-darkness,
devoid of the knowledge as to
these important periods, some
of the divisions of time will be
given. And these are only a few
occuring during the months
which are ordinarily known as
January and February.
’All of us know that Sunday,!
January 1, waso what is known
as New Year’s Day, but how
many know that during this
month there is a Civil Service
Week? Then, there is Idaho
Potato and Onion Week (chew
parsley for breath odor), and
Jaycee Week. And for those
who have coffee nerves, there
is Take Tea and See Week.
There is Printing Education
Week—Some of us need that
course. Then there is Church
and Economic Life Week, fol
lowed by National Potato Chip
Week. The latter is for those
who did not enjoy Idaho Potato,
and Onion Week.
National. Thrift Week is fol
lowed by National Crochet
Week—Do-it-yourself and save
money is the idea. And then
there is National Fur Care
Week, for those extravagant
enough to have one, and thrifty
enough to take care of it.
Jewish Music Month is not a
week, it’s a month, but Youth
Week is just another week, the
last in January. But when we

When disease strikes a poul
try flock the time to treat it is/
immediately after you see the!
6 first symptoms. Thad Ray of I
—Star Route, Burnsville, saw
that his flock of 650 White
Rocks were coming down with
a cold. They were laying about
60% at the time and still had
not dropped in egg production
or feed consumption. They were
immediately given a shot of
Purina Inject-R-Mycin. Wthin
the next few days production
fell to about 38% but immedia
tely started climbing again !
They are now laying at a 70%
plus rate and show no ill es-j
sects from the cold. It must be
realized that all types of res
piratory troubles would not re
spond to the same treatment in
the same way since there are
several diseases that have much
the same outward symptoms.
Whatever the treatment may
be it should be given at the first
sign of disease or there is the
possibility that no treatment
will have appreciable effect.
WINTER COW CARE TIPS
Application of good practices
like these will help dairies come

get into February, we get into
the month bracket again. . . .
: There’s an extra day that mon
; th, too. There is American
Heart Month, Catholic Press
Month, National Negro History
Month, with the Jewish Mus
ic Festival still going strong.
Then there’s Family Dine Out
Month, and National Freedom
Day. ;
To add a little sour touch to
our parade of celebrations, we
have Kraut & Frankfurter
Week. And to make things a
little less dull, there is Nation
al Children’s Dental Health
Week. ~ *-■
You probably don’t know it,
but beginning on February 6,
you will celebrate National
Sporting Goods Week. Then
there is Boy Scout Anniversary
Week. And for those who fear
the chilling blasts of February
too much to brave the sloppy
tennis court, you may take
yours in the basement game
room and celebtate Table Ten
nis Week.
Right after Lincoln’s Birth
day there is Crime Prevention
Week, National Defense Week,
--Americanism Week, and Na
tional Beauty Week (for the
women), which leads us to Race
Relations Sunday. (Probably
not observed in some parts of
Mississippi.)
One day we like the sound of,
though, is Pancake Day. That
day comes . after Valentine’s
day but before Ash Wednesday,
althugh, it falls in National
Cherry Week. Another period
which I like is National Adver
tising Week. That week falls
*'to 60 degrees. -
(Warm water cuts feed bill.
Check water heaters now to be
sure they are working. Cows
often , use part of their feed aa
“fuel” to warm cold water. If
water is cold, they won’t drink
enough for top production.
Sanitation ,js extremely im
portant during cold weather.
Keep clean bedding under cows
Clip around udders and flanks
to make cleaning easier.
Look for lice. They’re trouble
| some at this season. Dust Pur
ina Insect Killer on cows and
[ rub into hair.
Wash udders before milking
This is not a substitute for
clipping. Use Purina Disinfect
ant solution on udders, hands
and equipment to keep bacter
ial count low.
If trouble starts call your
veterinarian for diagnosis and
treatment.
Straw makes snug calf pen
A dozen bales of straw make l
a warm, snug calf pen. The pern
is 2 bales long and 1 wide. Two
rows of bales 'are stacked on
edge so the open or rough sides
keep them from sliding. A sin
gle wire around the top holds
the unit together. Use pen only
once. Straw may be used as
bedding when knocked down.

RED BIRD
Red Bird-, Red Bird,
Where do you go?
I thought you were gone
Until after the snow.
But I saw you go by
My window today,
So Flame-in-the winter,
Don’t ever go away.

»• 1
Frem Mrs. Settle B. Ford, Par
cons, W. Va.: I remember when I
lived in Es.till County, Kentucky,
near the Kentucky River. Many I
persons in that section still cooked I
on open wood fires and used tallow 1
candles which they molded them- »
selves tor lighting purposes.
They slept under blankets woven
from wool which they had cleaned,
carded and spun. They also wove
> flannel, linsey and jeans. This they
, made into, clothing and sometimes
[ they traded some of it in local
! stores. ‘
f Coffee was shipped green in
large burlap bags and retailers
’ sold it to consumers by the pound.
r It was parched, then ground or
r pestled as It was used. There were
; no packaged groceries in that day I
, and no paper bags. Such things as
coffee, sugar and rice were
weighed on scales which sat on
the counter, then poured from a
- scoop into a piece of brown paper,
l wrapped and tied so none of it
could spill. The string was often
| made of paper.
There was also a tobacco cut
' ter, which was used to cut p'
1 tobacco
• Shoes came several pairs ir
■ box and pairs were tied togeth
with a string run through a hoi.
punched in back of each shoe.
[ Logs were cut and sawed b;
* band, rafted and then hauled daw.
1 the river to Frankfort where they
, were sold to the big mills. Co.
I was also taken down the river fro
| the coal mines higher up in
mountains • •
right along with National En
gineer’s Week and Brother- [
hood Week. AH these come be- '
fore Washington’s Birthday, ‘
Scout Guide Sunday and Heart
Sunday. Then there is National *
Sew and Save Week (more of
that do-it-yourself business). *
And to give the young ladies a ■
break for the year, there is
Leap Year Day.
All this celebrating in two
months, plus Groundhog Day.
When Is it? Take your choice.
