Sweet Bread It
Suggested Way
Replacing Cake
Put the spotlight on sweet
bread this summer and your
family will forget about cake
and other rich dessert. With
cold cuts, a generous raw vege-
table salad and fresh fruit, hot
sweet bread makes a tempting
light meal for late summer days.
jMiss Edith Lawrence, special-
ist in food preparation for the
A. and M- College Extension
Service, points out that quick
breads, such as muffins and
biscuits, are made to order for
summer baking. You can stir
them up in a) hurry. “In fact,
says Miss Lawrence, "you can
save time by mixing the dry in-
gredients of biscuit dough in
quantity ahead of time. Then
all vou need to do when you get
ready to make hot bread is to
add the fat and milk. They can
be baked quickly.”
Miss Lawrence says that ihere
are countless variations on the
quick bread theme. Dress up
muffins bv adding chopped nuts
or dried fruits. Or treat the
children to a surprise by baking
a spoonful of jelly in the center
of each muffin..
One why to vary the basic
baking powder biscuit is to sub-
stitute a flavorful juice for all
or part of the liquid called for
iQ the recipe. For oxample. to-
mato juice biscuits are delicious.
Or you may use orange juice.
Or you may get another fruit
flavor by using sweetened apple
sauce that’s been flavored with
cinnamon for part of the liquid
in baking powder biscuits. Try
this and see if your family
doesn’t call for a return engage-
ment.

WP. Allen Lib7l
Suit Set Oct. 3
CriminalAppeal
Austin, Texas—The celebrat-
ed libel case of William Prescott
Allen of Laredo has been set
for the initial fall sitting of the
state court of criminal appeals
October 3rd.
It is reported that at that
time, Allen’s attorneys will be
joined by Gerald Weatherly of
Corpus Christi as attorney for
the American Civil Liberties Un-
ion—in defense of Allen’s pub-
lications in the Laredo Timas.
Directly representing Allen
are Attorneys Sidney Samuels
of Fort Woe h and Carl Wright
Johnson of San Antonio. Gor-
don Gibson of Laredo is to
mr.ka the argument for sustain-
ing the conviction.
Allen was given a six-month
jail sentence at Laredo on a
libel charge resulting from ar-
ticles critical of efforts to col-
lect student loans of the Laredo
Rotary Club, including advances
that had been made1 to youths
who later entered the armed
forces.
In all, Allen and his papar
face 23 suits as a result of the
publications. Three are crimi-
nal libi|l complaints and the
others are civil libel subs.
GoodbeeColony
Gathers 65 Lbs.
Pollen In Year
A mathenatical-minded scLn-
t.et of the U. S. Department o-'
Agriculture has figured out tfifl'
t good colony of bees gathers
about 65 pounds of pollen each
voar. The enormity of the job
is suggested by tho fact that to
gather one pound the bees from
one hive visit more than 8,0-00,■
POO flowers. Paul Gregg, ento-
mologist for tho A. and M. Col
lt-ge Extension Service, estima-es
that honeybees are responsible
for 80 per cent of all pollini-
tion.
Beekeeping in Texas not only
ranks hign among the states,
b t the number and location of
tne bees j.-, e determ', ing far or
upon the nroductioii of fru’.t
and seed crops, Gregg says. Ac-
cordingly, preservation of the
health of Vues on farms and
elsewhere is important to agi*-
culture in Texas.
The Agricultural 'Research Ad-
ministration, USDA, cooperating
wi h several state agricultural
experiment stations, has made
progress through breeding and
selection in producing a
of bees resistant to
fculbrood This
most fatal bee diseases.
Research Administration report.
*d‘recently tha* a limited num-
ber of queens bred for resisting
it had been distributed th-o^gh-
out the. UniVl States. But
such strains are not
¥«» are «*1«* 1” '»«> jj"
particular ailments, and certain
infant bees take »
heavy toll of colonies. All of
these diseases and ailments are
confined to honeybee families,
however, and are not transmit-
table under any circumstances to
humans cr to livestock.
It is explained by the Agricul-
tural I’esearch (AdVninu'.ration
that resistance or immunity to
one bee disease does not neces-
sarily cany protection against
others. For example, some
widely scattered cases indicate
strains resistant to American
fnulbrood show high suscepti-
bility to European foulbrood.
American beekeepers an cau-
tioned to keep careful watch for
Tossible outbreak of th:s disease.
Housewife Told
About Avoiding
HomeAccidents
“Oh, I’ve heard all this be-
fore,’’ Mrs. American Housewife
is lijkely to say when you try to
talk to her about home1 accident
prevention. Yet nearly half the
accidents that occur in the Unit,
ed States happen at home.
“They don’t just happen,
cither,” says (Mrs. Bernice Clay-
tor,. Home Improvement Special-
ist for the A. and M. College
Extension Service. ‘fMost of
them are caused by carelssness,
dangerous economy, poor house-
keeping, haste, or bad
ment.” <
Last year 4,650,000 persons*
were injured at home, and 130,-
000 of these wore put perma-
nently out of the running. F'atal
accidents at home claimed 31,-
600 lives.
“Cluttered cellar stairs, chil-
dren’s toys left scattered about
on the floor, dangerous drugs
nob /under /lock and 'keyj—all
these conditions are widespread
among American homes. And
each of them can be the cause
of a serious injury,” says Mrs.
Claytor.
Some people forget that ba-
bies are no match for pillows in
a tussle. Next to burns and
scalds, smo hering causees most
of our accidental infant deaths.
Other people can’t seem to re-
member that carelessness with
matches is arson of the worst
order. Keep matches, especially
the .kitchen variety, away from
small hands.
“Opening cans with a bread
knife may open a gash in your
wriist,” Mrs. Clay’or warn.
Wrong use of tools causes one
out of ten home accidents. Stew
pans on the stove with handles
turned out invite curiosity—apd
perhaps tragedy if your your
youngster grabs at them.

ttoQs of the Moment
BY UNCLE BOB
of the Kraft Dairy Farm Service
Tf you went out once a month dur-
-L ing the winter and poured a sack
full of dimes down that woodchuck
hole in your back pasture, your
neighbors probably would think you
were a candidate for a padded cell.
Yet I’ve been on dairy farms
where just about that same kind of
waste takes place, because the dairy-
man fails to provide bedding for his
cows when they are stabled.
It isn’t just a matter of cleanliness
and better milking conditions. Those
aremighty important, of course. Good
bedding will help a great deal in
keeping cows clean and keeping dirt
out of your milk.
But Idaho University also
points out that if you fall to
catch the liquid part of manure,
you are losing dollars in fertili-
zer value. They figure that you
I lose $1.00 worth of fertilizer in
j every ton of stable manure, if
* you lose the liquid.
Figuring a ten-ton-per-acre appli-
1 cation, that’s ten dollars per acre,
j The liquid in every ton contains 72(
• worth of nitrogen, two cents worth
of phosphate and 33^ worth of pot-
j ash. These figures are based on ferti-
lizer cost in Idaho, and may vary
slightly in other parts of the country.
Any way you figure it, bedding will
pay for itself. Straw is best for bed-
ding, but shredded corn stover, shav-
ings and other things can be used.
in simplified form 12 different ra-
tions, balanced to give the most
possible food based on quality of hay
or pasture. I think you'll want one.*
Also, I have just received Bulletin
72. “Feeding Dairy Cattle” from the
Extension Service, Ohio State 1 ni-
versity, Columbus, Ohio, which is
one of the clearest and most com-
plete outlines of feeding practices
I’ve found. It contains 40 pages
packed with a wealth of material on
how and what to feed dairy cows,
food value in various kinds of rough-
ages, pastures and so on. You surely
will want this booklet.*

When somebody invents a machine
which will take over all the work on
a farm while you rest in the shade,
there will be a lot more fat farmers
around the country.
The extension folks, figuring
that invention is a few years
away, spend their time develop-
ing better ways to do the Jobs
around a farm, to save time,
labor and money. The new book-
lets they Issue from time to time
always seem to me a little bet-
ter than the ones before.
A couple of weeks ago I mentioned
a special circular "Feeding the Dairy
Herd” from the Extension Service,
University of Wisconsin, Madison,
Wisconsin. It is a most handy leaflet
to nail up in your barn, conuumng I

Here’s another one of those jobs
which does several things at the
same time. If I run into enough of
these, maybe I can figure out a way
for a dairy farmer to go out after
breakfast and get his whole day’s
work cleaned up in one operation.
This particular several-in-one
item is simply using superphosphate
on the stable floors and in gutters.
Such use of superphosphate helps
preserve nitrogen in stable manure,
lessens stable odors, absorbs mois-
ture, helps keep floors dry and
reduces the number of flies,
Texas A & M College recom-
mends using 30 to 50 pounds of
superphosphate per cow per month.
The college has demonstrated how
this increases fertilizer value.
A ton of fresh manure is equal in
plant food value to 100 pounds of
10-5-10 commercial fertilizer. But
nitrogen escapes, and loss of liquid
reduces the value to 100 pounds of
5-5-5. Using superphosphate on the
floors and in the gutters brings the
manure value to 100 pounds of 8-10-10.
Another thing, too—you save a
spreading operation since your phos-
phate goes on right at the time the
fertilizer is spread on pasture or field.
Just the kind of a job-saver which
appeals to a fellow like me, with
not too much energy to waste.

YOUR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
American women know the time and labor-
saving value of modern electrical appliances.
Today, these household helps are doubly
treasured, and proper care and use of these
appliances are necessary to prolong their use-
fulness until new ones are available. Even with
the end of the war at hand, getting back to
full, peacetime production of electric refriger-
ators, washing machines, sweepers, and the
many other time and labor-saving appliances
will take time. So give your present appliances
the care they deserve.
Here are a few hints to help you keep them
working:
• KEEP THEM SERVICED ... Oil them regularly as prescribed by the manufacturer; keep
them properly adjusted, and when repairs are needed ... take them to a competent
repairman.
• KEEP THEM CLEAN ... Keep surface clean with damp doth !o prevent rust. Do nol
dip motors and healing appliances in water. Wash lamp bulbs and reflector bowls regu-
larly lo assure maximum efficiency of lighting.
• KEEP THEM IN USE . . . They are your most dependable helpers . v. 'i .: a
