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.

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 -

with the nutrients needed for main-
tenance, millc flow, and calving.
* * *
Because of the success which
greeted the experimental work on
a few cows, all the station's herd
was shifted over to this feeding
program. 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--

Gamble, Owen Sound; Haldimand

Wray Richeld of Cayuga; Welling-
ton—Archie Crobbie, Guelph and
