" M 5 It takes about three bushel vegetable boxes 22"x22"x0" to handle 100 birds, 5 5 5 Dr. R. L. 12 Heide, who tested *his method, found One trouble - the box won't work with roosters, Roosters don't dust.

For feeder and waterer space, he advises following these stan- dards of the American Feed Manufacturers Association: Tr'm - Kinuko Ito; Miss Japan of 1953 as well as Tokyo's num- ber -one fashion model, will soon make her movie debut, She's due for a role in the movie titled "My AIL" Feder space per chick: ✓ One day old to two weeks -- 1 linear inch, • Three to six weeks 2 inches. s Seven weeks and older -••- 3 inches.

B. F. Cargill, the engineer in charge, says this silo has fed about 25 dairy cattle all winter, with not more than half an hour's work a week,, at 5 * Here's how it works: To keep the silage up in place, and prevent it from whomping down on the cow's head. Cargil put seven hydraulic jacks inside the beams. A piece of channel iron across the top of each jack acts as a bridge under the sil- age. When Cargill wants silage down, he merely lowers the jacks and slips them out - maybe not all of them, but as many as necessary to drop down a good batch. 5 5 * To help hold the silage up, and also to help work it down for feeding, the engineers added a "rocker" bar to seven of the supporting beams of the silo. These bars are V-shaped, pivot on the bottom, and can be push- ed and pulled, back and forth, to let silage drop co to hold It up, 5 5 * When the engineers first started work on the problem, they fig- ured that a shaft up through the middle of the silo would work like a pencil stuck through a sheet of paper. The silage would slip down around it, and spread over the cone-shaped bottom to the outside, where cows could reach it easily. * 5 e Trouble was, though, that the silage would either lodge up above the cows' heads, or come down in one big "whornp." When the silage froze in. the winter, it took chain saws and crowbars to get the stuff down, The new silo gets around a lot of the failings of the first self -feeders. Does the silage freeze in this new model self -feeder? Yes, says Cargill. But when the cat- tle keep nibbling away at it, it doesn't seem to matter. a a * Cows can get their feet in the silo, but small rods in between each of the supporting I -beams keep them from walking all the way in. And with hydraulic jacks and cross -arms holding the silage up, there's no danger of silage crashing down on the cow's head, as happened dur- ing early trials. No doubt the engineers will make a few other adjustments before they feel that they have the silo perfected. But they're pleased with the way it worked thin winter. It looks like a real step toward getting rid of the silage tub for good. -CROSSWORD ORD PUZZLE ACROSS 1. f lgh mountain 4, lfiad n5 lime 9.

In his book "Report on Indo- China," he says his route was dotted with check -points where police halted traffic to question the occupants of vehicles. As the policemen moved from car to car they invited passen- gers to buy lottery tickets. Corn- ing to the car in which Ber- nard Newman was travelling they looked inside, but spotting a European waved the tickets only casually, "It you had not been here I should have had to buy one or I should never have got on," remarked Newman's Vietnamese driver. "And on one ever wins, Once a policeman sold me a ticket for a lottery which had already taken place. He said he must have got the wrong ones, but it made no difference." NAY 1 SESSON R. Barclay Warren, B.A., S.D. Judgment on Jeroboam 1 Kings 14:5-10a, 12-16. Memory Selection: Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his com- mandments. Deuteronomy 8:11. K i In g Jeroboam thought it would be impossible to retain his leadership of the ten tribes if they continued going to Jeru- salem to wors>;nip. So be made two calves of gold and said to the people, "It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: be- hold thy gods, 0 Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, And he set the one in Bethel, and the other put he in Dan. And this thing became a sin." He also made priests of the lowest of the people, which were not of the sons of Levi, Thus Jeroboam led Israel into sacrificing to the golden calves. After his death he is repeatedly referred to as Jeroboam, the Son of Nebel, who made Israel to sin. Judgment for the sinner may be delayed, but it always comes. in this life and in the life to come. Warning first came from a prophet from Judah. Jeroboam put forth his hand to arrest the prophet and immediately it dried up. He then begged the prophet to pray for him and his hand was restored. But Jeroboam did nut change his ways. The death of his son was a sign' that the dreadful prediction of the pro- phet Ahijah would surely come to pass. Still Jeroboam did not repent. On his death his son suc- ceeded to his throne. A con- spiracy arose against his son, Nadab, and he was slain In fact, every one of Jeroboam's descen- dants was put to death. 'Thus judgment came upon the house of Jeroboam according to the prophecy of Ahijah. Many, as Jeroboam, openly a n d defiantly disregard God's holy commandments. They may even seem to prosper in their she But a day of reckoning is cam, ing. "Be not deceived, God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man swath, that shall he also reap," Gal 6:7.

The familiar Ding -ding, Ding -ding, Ding -ding, Ding -ding rings out every four hours: at 12 noon; 'at four pan.; at eight pens at midnight; four a.m, and 8 a,m, So, in a twenty- four hour day, eight bells rings forth six time.. • The ship's bell also marks the passing of every half • hour throughout each watch. For ex- ample, suppose we begin at noon. . Eight bells! A sailor has just come on duty. Thirty minutes later he hears the ship's bell strike once ---Ding! He knows that halt an hour has gone by imd that it is now half past twelve. Presently he hears the ship's bell strike twice---Dine;- ding! Two bells. That means another half hour has p 1sa'ed and it is now one o'clock, Half an hour later, Ding -dint;, Ding! Three bells, Its half past once. Ding ding, Ding -ding! Mat's two o'clock. Five bells, it's two - thirty. Six bells means three o'- clock;- and there remains only one hour to go before this watch is done. Half an hour goes by ---three thirty-seven bells And finally eight bells It is now four- o'clock and the relief takes over. With each new watch the cycle begins again, So presently, Dings It is half paid four. Two bells -it is five o'clock; and so forth up to eight bell The time between four and eight p,m is often divided into two two-hour periods called dog watches, from four o'clock (eight bells) to six o'clock (your bells); and from lour •bells to eight bells (eight o'clock), Seertilizers It is becoming more and mole difficult to get manure. And even if we are lucky enough to locate a :supply, often it is so filled with weeds, that there is a good deal of trouble. More altd. more the gardener is forced to use a substitute, Cotmnonist of all, is chemical fertilizer, which come,, in bags or boxes with a formula attach- ed showing the per eentage of nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash, the major ingredients necessary. This ferticizer should be used carefully and according to directions. It is best dissolv- ed in water and applied that way or sprinkled or mixed with the soil just before a rain or a thorough watering with a hose. This prevents it burning tender foliage and roots. Where water- ing is not feasible, one is advised to sprinkle lightly over the soil near but not actually touching roots or plants, and work in with a cultivator. Where one uses chemical fer- tilizer regularly one should also work in humus or dig or, plow under green manure, humus is simply well rotted vegetable ref- use,'such as leaves, weeds, grass clippings or even clean garbage mixed with fine soil, Every good gardener has a pile of this stuff hidden behind some shrub- bery where the rotting process goes on. That process can be greatly hastened by some of the commercial bacteria prepare - tions now on the market and by frequent turning and watering. Green manure is the technical name for crops of clover, fall rye, buckwheat, oats and similar things that are sown in vacant places in the garden, allowed to grow well and then dug or plow- ed under lightly. This sort of thing and humus adds fibre to the soil, loosening clay and im- proving sandy soils and making them more open and friable and therefore more able to retain valuable moisture. Watch for Bugs With so many easily applied chemical mixtures on the market there is little excuse for having our flowers and vegetables dam- aged by bugs or disease. It is no longer necessary to prepare various concoctions. All that one has to do is to go to the nearest seed store, tell them our troubles and get some handy preparation which 'is simply dusted or sprayed on.
