er. Roll call was answered by

These products should also be
stored in a cool place where th
temperature does not make
extreme changes. If the label
has become faded or torn, it
may be a good idea to copy
the vital information and at
tach it to the container along
with the old label.
All unlabcled material should
be discarded immediately, ad-
vises Haws. But, he adds, dis-
pose of materials vvjith safety
in mind. Burying at a depth of
about 18 inches is a safe meth-
od of disposal.
Whether the materials to be
carried over are in small or
rather large amounts, they
should be stored under lock and
key.
The annual 4-H Achievement'
Banquet will be Tuesday, Nov.
21 at 6:30 p.m. in the Hirschi
High School Cafeteria. The
annual event where awards are
given to outstanding 4-H boys
and girls is sponsored by the
First-Wichita National Bank.
Should electric blankets bo
dry cleaned? No Also its best
not to use dry cleaning fluids
on electric blankets because the
fluids can damage the insulation
on the electric wiring Follow
laundering directions that come
with the blanket. They usually
suggest short wash, rinse, and
spin cycles1. Use cold and warm
water and don’t dry the blanket
in a dryer.
If you are going on a hem-
raising spree this fall, remem-
ber some basic rules for sew-
ing cotton. Cotton knit and sued-
ed can be hemmed with a raw
edge which has been pinked.
For corduroy and other bulky
fabric, use a tailor’s hem.
Excess frost on the surface
of the home freezer makes it
less efficient It limits the space
available as well as causing the
temperature to rise. Higher
temperatures than recommend-
ed can cause loss of quality in
stored food.
Dust and dirt on light bulbs
can cut down the light in your
home by 15 per cent. Light
bulbs, tubes and diffusing bowls
should be cleaned, regularly.
Sudsey water removes insects,
dust and oily film from diffus-
ing bowls.

Grazing small grain pastures
before they have a chance to
’ make needed growth can re-
' duce their value as suppliers of
; fall grazing. Oats, barley, wheat
• and rye which were planted
' this fall should be from six to
eight inches in height before
they are grazed,
Research has shown that
small grains will produce con
siderably more fall grazing
when allowed to reach six to
eight inches in height as com
pared to grazing the plants
when they are only four inches
• tall. Small grain when grazed
I ?t the four inch height doesn't
. get a • chance to grow, since
most of the fall growth is made
before cold weather begins.
The plants must have lots of
leaves and warm weather for
fast growth. This severly limits
tBe grazing during the winter
months when the leaves are not
growing.
It is a good idea to graze
small grain pastures for only a
short period each day. By fol-
lowing this practice the pas-
tures will furnish forage of high
. quality and the plants will
make make good growth.
Left over agricultural chemi
cals should be properly stored
during the winter months for
several reasons, reminds county
agent B. T. Haws. They can be
used next year and thus reduce
crop costs if they are properly
stored.
Wettable powders or dusts
should be kept in a cool, dry
place. Bats should be sealed
to keep out moisture. Lids on
cans should be closed thightly
and, if holes have been punched
to make a dust dispenser, tape
should be used to seal the
holes.
Liquid materials should be
? stored in the original labeled
containers because either the
carrier or active ingredient may
be corrosive to other metal
containers or other lids of glass
containers. All bottles or cans
containing liquids should be
tightly sealed to prevent loss of
