labradors, Dog-Detectives,
Get Buckingham Palace Duty
Four descendants of some sharp-
scented, cold-nosed North Ameri-
cans have taken up guard duty at
England’s Buckingham palace.
Recent robberies there brought
the quick assignment of several
canine cops to reinforce a 30-man
police unit, charged with the pro-
tection of his Britannic majesty’s
London residence. The new world
police dogs are the field-famed
Labrador retrievers, who rank
among the top sporting dogs of the
world.
The Labradors were found to be
natural “detectives” during World
War II. They were outstanding in
tracking down land mines, reputed-
ly doing the job quicker and better
than any other breed. In 1946 six of
them were assigned to the London
metropolitan police force.
Gentle and friendly by nature,
the animals were never trained to
attac kman but were used solely:
to pick up the elusive clues of
human scent and follow their re-
markable noses to the culprits.
For just such skill in detecting,
the Labrador retriever has taken
more first place honors in the past
two decades of United States field
trials than all other breeds of
hunting dogs put together. It rates
among the four most popular dogs
bred by the British for export.
In spite of its name, however,
the retriever was not first known
as a native of Labrador. It was
one of two breeds brought to New-
foundland by early traders and
was referred to in the last century
as the Lesser on St. John’s New-
foundland, or as the St. John’s
Water Dog. The people of the re-
gion used the sturdy, thick-haired
dog to haul wood and retrieve
wild fowl and also fish that be-
came unhooked just prior to being
landed.

Mary Jack Vaught of Bon-
ham is visiting her cousin,
Martha Jane L/air, south of
town this week.
q—i was seperated, but not
divorced, from my husband—
a World iWlar I veteran—at
the time of hiis death. His
service-connected disability,
incidentally, did not cause his
death. If I meet eligibility re-
quirements, would l‘h be en-
titled to a pensifin, even
though we were seperated?
A—Yes, if you can estab-
lish that the seperation was
due to the misconduct of, or
procured by, your husband,
with no fault on your part.
Also, you would have to meet
the income requirements and
have not remarried.
Q—I recently received my
NS'LI dividend from VA, and
I’m pretty sure the amount
is wrong. Where do I write to
get things, straightened out ?
A—Write to the VA dis-
trict office handling your ac-
count. Be sure to include all
necessary information so that
office can readily locate your
file—such as full name and
address, insurance number
and service serial number.
Q—In 1943, I received an
honorabel discharge as an en-
listed man to accept a com-
mission, and I have been on
active duty ever since. Am I
eligible While still on active
duty for GI Bill schooling
benfits on the strength of
that discharge?
A—No. A discharge grant-
ed merely for the purpose of
changing military status is
not sufficient under the law
to qualify you for GI Bill
benefits..

Offers Four Pointers for
Bonuses for Hired Help
If you’re thinking of putting your
hired man on a wage-plus-bonus
plan, here are four points to keep
in mind.
J. B. Cunningham, farm manage-
ment man in the Illinois college of
agriculture, says an incentive plan
succeeds best if the hired man re-
ceives the going wage plus a
bonus.
Second, the incetive payment
should be based on gross produc-
tion or income rather than on net
farm income. It might be two to
four cents for every bushel of grans
produced, eight to 12 per cent of
each dairy check, three to seven
per cent of gross hog returns and
so on.
Cunningham also suggests that
on dairy farms the hired man re-
ceive his bonus payments during
the year as milk checks come in.
On grain farms, where payment
comes at the end of the year, the
hired man should get his propor-
tionate share of the bonus if he has
to quit before the end of the year
for no reason of his own.
Finally, the wage-plus-bonus
agreement should be in writing.
You can either write your own, or
get a farm manager, attorney or
some other person to do the job
for you.

ERP Nations Gain
Substantial increases in produc-
tivity, as measured by output per
man-year, have occurred in all
countries participating in the Euro-
pean Recovery Program and have
played a vital role in their recon-
struction and economic progress
in the last few years, according to
the 1950 report of the Organization
for European Economic Co-opera-
tion. American aid has been a funda-
| mental factor in making these gains
1 possible. Of the 14 participating na-
tions, six have increased their pro-
ductivity above the prewar 1938
level. They are France, Ireland,
Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, and
the United Kingdom. Productivity
in Belgium, Denmark, Greece and
Norway was rated about the same
as in 1938, while the Netherlands
was lower. Considerably lower pro-
ductivity than in 1938 was found in
Austria, Italy and Western Ger-
many.

Lions, Too, Never Forget
Elephants are not the only beasts
that never forget. If you don’t be-
lieve it, try operating on a lion's
ingrown toenail sometime without
an anesthetic, challenges Dr. J. A.
Campbell of Toronto, Ont. You’ll
be viciously remembered for years,
he warns. Writing in Canada’s
national journal of veterinary medi-
cine, Dr. Campbell says that skilled
use of anesthetics has made life
easier and safer for zoo veterinar-
ians as well as the animals, be-
cause the patients have no re-
venge-inspiring memory of what
happened. He reported that it takes
about four pounds of chloroform to
prepare a lion for surgery.

Hens Need Protein
If you feed a 20 per cent protein
mash, your hens should get about
one pound of grain for every pound
of mash you feed. This will figure
out about a 15 per cent protein
ration, as most grain mixtures run
about 10 per cent protein. In case
a 26 per cent protein mash is used,
about 2Y4 pounds of grain to each
pound of mash will average out
about 15 per cent protein for the
ration. Hens may need a little more
grain in real cold weather, to sup-
ply heat and energy to withstand
*he cold.
