A ,Buckle of Long Beach, tries out the stretch of a giant slingshot confiscated from two boys after a citizen spotted thele lugging it around, The weapon is two feet long, and measures 14 inches from tip to tip. No one has reported any damage front it, , SP,ORT A S1.X0tTC L LC Now in all probability more peo- ple—also more nations—have found themselves chin -deep in a mass of trouble because of trying to wedge into neighbors' private affairs than for any other reason whatsoever. In fact, one of our earliest and still most vivid memories is that of watching what happened to a err- tain well-intentioned but misguided gent while he was attempting, on an evening down in Toronto's once - famous Stanley Park district, to act as peacemaker between a husband and wife engaged itt one of their regular Saturday brawls. * * t: Evidently this was a strictly per- sonal brawl and the ever-loving couple, acting with a Unanimity beautiful to behold, inuuediately re- sented an outsider's attempt to share the fun. At this late date we cannot recall which of the embattled pair landed first, but we do clearly remember that it was the lady who landed hardest. We hope that In some happier sphere the gentleman has collected the rewardwhich the Good Book promise's peacemakers.. We know that for the next ten clays or so he sported one of the most vivid shiners we have ever beheld —a shiner embellished by the un- mistakable impress of a wedding ring. Brother, what a sweet left that lady had! :k * a: Since then we have tried, with indifferent success, to refrain from goating into other folks' business. One of our favorite characters—as we have probably told you more than once—has always been the kid in Sunday School who, after hearing all about the persecutions suffered by the Israelites in Egypt, was asked by the teacher if he didn't consider King Pharoah a despicable person. "Well, teacher," replied the kid, simply but honestly, "he never done nothhl' to me.' * * * But there's always got to be a first time for everything; And today we find ourself sorely tempted to fracture our long-standing rule and stick our finger into somebody else's pie. For today there are apparently well-founded rumors that Joe Louis seriously contemplates engaging itt one or more further prize -ring, ap- pearances. A' * z: \Ve know there isn't any use ap- pealing to the Browned -off Bomber himself—still less to the horde of sure-thingers and chisel experts who have been bleeding hint for years. Still, it looks as though something will have to be done. So it is in our alleged mind to write an open letter to a good neighbor the only person, it seems, who has a chance to put a stop to what prom- ises to develop into one of the sor-• riest pictures sport has ever seen. This open letter would run some- thing like this: * , * DEAR UNCLE SAM: Together with countless sports followers the world over, we learn that one of your beat known citizens is about to do something everybody will regret, probably including him- self, This W.K. citizen is one Joe Louis, who—when he had it—was one of the finest leather-slingers ever seen. He defended the heavy- weight title oftener than any other man and—in the ring at least—con- ducted himself in a manner of which any nation might be proud, And what he is about to do is, to pnt it briefly try and engage in serious fisticuffing. * * * Now, Uncle Sam, it is rumored that the only reason Mr, Louis is contemplating this regrettable action la because he is deeply in hock to *our income tax authoritlea—s0 deeply that before he gets hitnsel€ out of hock he is likely to be tripscs ping over his long white whiskers climbing into the ring; and ,Mr„ Louis's whiskers are far from white, no do they grow any too quickly, * * Furthermore, Uncle Sam, during the past few years said Mr. Louis must have contributed, front time to time, fairly large chunks of folding money to those same income tax authorities—far more than you ever got front anybody of his humble beginnings and lack of early oppor- tunities. * * * So what we and a lot of the rest of the boys were thinking, Uncle Sam, is that you are in a position to make a very fine gesture. Why not make a nice quiet little deal with Joe •Louis—A deal whereby you would declare everything square re- garding the income tax matter if ,—on his part—Mr. Louis will agree never to get within a quarter mile of a prize ring again, not even on a skull, which is a sanscrit word meaning free pass. Because if you do not make some such deal as this, Uncle Sam, we fear there will be more and more such spectacles as that of Joe Louis in his recent meet- ing with Ezzard Charles—and such spectacles are rather sickening in a great country like yours, even in an election year. Yours Lovingly, etc. * •* * Well, that is a rough draft of the sort of letter we propose to ,send although, naturally, we would get some word -painter to brush it up a trifle before putting it in the mail. And now, on second though, before sending it we think we might pass it around, so that a lot of those who think as we do about the matter aright have a chance of signing too. * * * We'll bet we could get more sig- natures than there would be on a subscription list to buy a keg of arsenic for Stalin. Big H e 1 p—Hector Manuel Nieves, 8, of San Juan, puerto Rico, gives this traffic cop a helping hand, as do lots of youngsters who belong to the Puerto Rican Police Athletic League. Police sponsor the or- ganization of 20,000 School kids as a means of reducing juvenile delinquency. Parent to daughter in tun -baths ing kit, "The trouble with you, my girl, is that you Haven't been tan- ked in the right plats!' TILE FRONT k There's a small but growing group of Middle Western milk pro- dpcers who figure that the majority of dairymen are in a rut; that they waste from 30 to 45 minutes every day by feeding their cows twice every 24 hours instead of only once. Instead of feeding silage, grain and hay both morning and evening, they feed only once a day, and they claim the results are highly satisfactory, * * * Now my personal knowledge of the subject is about as small as It possibly could be, and I know there are those who think that the idea is foolish, and bound to result in losses, However ,here are some experiences of those who have tried this plan. * * * One of thein—a young matt who is regarded as one of Wisconsin's better dairymen—has been using the once -a -clay plan for two years, and is thoroughly sold on it. So are a number of his neighbors who have followed his example, t: * * "Why do I like its" he said. "Mainly because it saves labor. In- stead of hurrying home on Sun- day afternoons to take care of the feeding, we have a little more time to spend with out friends and rela- tives. On week days I speed 30 to 60 minutes longer in the woods where we're clearing more land for pasture." * * * He has figures to prove this once -a -day plan 1511'1 hurting -milk production in the least. After the first-year, his herd's butterfat aver- age jumped 27 pounds. The next year the average had increased 35 pounds—making a total gain of 62 pounds in two years. 01 course, other factors probably contributed to that increase, too, but to him it is proof that once -a -day feeding doesn't harm production, Operating a 240 -acre farm with the help of a brother, the young man milks front 13 to 20 cows daily. His feeding is done in the morning after milking is finished. * * * "We feed the day's ration of corn silage and grain before we go in for breakfast" he explains. "Each cow gets between 40 and 50 pounds of silage. After breakfast, we let the cows go outside, providing the weather isn't too severe. This gives us a chance to bed the cows down and put the day's supply of hay (chopped brome-alfalfa-Ladi- no) in front of the stanchions. That completes the day's feeding pro- gram with the exception of sweep- ing up the leftover hay in the morning and giving it to 'the horses." He figures he. saves an extra trip into the silo, haymow, and feed room each day. This results in a daily saving of between 30 and 60 minutes. - * * * Over in Minnesota, another young dairyman has been thor- oughly sold on the advantages of oncc-a-day feeding. He is Ralph Englestad, who finds the plan affords him more leisure, keeps his hired man happier, and tends to equalize both morning and eve- ning milk yields, * * .* "There are several advantages to feeding just once a day," Ralph points out. "Of course, labor-saving is the main item, but I've found that Iny cows are more contented, are easier to keep clean, and yield just as much milk as they would under twice -a -day feeding." * * * Right after Ralph and his hired man have finished milking the string of 13 cows, they feed grass silage—about 20 pounds per ani- mal. This silage is made of an alfalfa-bronlegrass mixture which Ralph put up because he was "long" on hay this past year on his 180 -acre farm. After feeding the silage, he and the hired man go in for breakfast. * T• .R When the two men return to the barn, the cattle are turned out for a short period, and ground oats, corn, soybean meal, and linseed meal are put on what's left of the silage. By that time the cows are • anxious to get back into the barn for the grain. The silage -grain mixture is cleaned up in a hurry and a 10 o'clock feeding of hay —clover, timothy, and alsike—is given to them. „ * It seems that the once -a -day pian was first started by a big feed manufacturing firm which started experimental work some six or seven years ago in its own .herd. Only a few cows were tried as "guinea pigs," since the director was uncertain as to results. The balance of the herd continued to be fed twice daily as it had in the past. Both groups of cows were closely checked during the trial period, and it soon became appar- ent the cows being fed only once daily were holding up just as well as the cows fed twice daily. * * * Care was taken, of course, to make certain each cow was fed according to her individual require - CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING AGENTS WANTED MAKE MONEY IN YOUR SPARE TIME Sell Leading Lan Cosmatica in your horn► IooalltY, Exparlenen not neeeep0ry. we train you.

However, the plan of feeding is somewhat different from that used by various farmers, al- though the results probably are about the same. * * * The feed firm's herd is milked at 4 o'clock in the' morning and again at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. At 10 a.m. the cows are waiting in their stalls, after their morning exercise period, for their daily feed- ing of silage. * * * Then the grain -concentrate mix- ture is put on top of the silage. The cows clean this up in a hurry in some cases in other cases, indi- vidual cows may take up to three hours to slick up all their feed. * * * A big supply of hay is put in the manger. This gives each cow a chance to eat all the hay she wants until the following forenoon feed- ing, at which time about a pound of the hay is left in each manger as evidence that the cow has had all the hay she wanted. This left- over hay is removed and fed to young stock. * * t: But regardless of how the feed is fed—whether in the morning or afternoon — the experiences of dairymen are proving this plan works. It not only saves time but also helps to make dairying a less arduous form of farming, As more and more farmers learn about its advantages, they're switching over to it. Victoria County Boys Come First On a field swept by winds of almost gale force and intermittent sheets of rain, two Victoria County boys woo first prize in the Salada Tea Inter -County Horse Plowing competition, major event on Thurs- day, October 12, at the Internation- al Plowing Matches being held near Alliston. While the weather result- ed in a much smaller crowd than the previous record breaking day, all competiitors agreed that it made the light loamy soil of six hundred acre Nottawasaga Valley Farms just about perfect for. plowing. Thirteen -year-old Ivan Bell of Kirkfield had the highest number of points though the other member of the Victoria team, his cousin, Gerald Bell of Woodville was not far behind. The Wentworth County team consisting of George Markle, Alberton and Toni Braithwaite of Ancaster won second place. These four boys, with a trip man- ager to be appointed by the Ontario Plowmcns' Association, will make a tour of agricultural and canverva- tion projects in the eastern United States next spring as guests of the Salada Tea Company of Canada, Limited, Other winners in this event for boys are as follows: Grey County-- Beverley ounty—Beverley Brown of Ayton and Mac Gamble, Owen Sound; Haldimand —Harold Nixon of Hagersville and Wray Richeld of Cayuga; Welling- ton—Archie Crobbie, Guelph and Lindsay Love, Guelph; Waterloo— David Taylor, Galt and Calvin Hondrich, New Hamburg, and Brant County—W.
