TO COMBAT ANIMAL DISEASES

A more intensive fight than ever
before will be wagcd by the United
states Department Of Agriculture on
hog cholera and the cattle tick with
funds made available by the recently
enacted food production bill. Be
tween them. hog cholera and cattle
tick fever cause annual losses Of ap-
proximately s6O,OOOO00. In an effort
to stem these losses and so, in effect.
to increase meat production, the de-
partment will put a greatly enlarged
staff of specialists to work in the
field within the next few weeks.
Tick eradication, which is essential
to building up cattle raising in sec
tions of the South now infested by
ticks. will be extended in all affected
States. Twenty-Five veiinarians will
be added to the departments staff
to carry on the work against hog
cholera throughout the hog-raising
sections of the country.

HOW TO DISPOSE OF FROSTED
CORN
-Four Options Given, by which Much
Corn NAV Be Saved


Frost has fallen upon many imma-
ture corn fields in Kentucky this
year. In these times Of stress 1t is
very important that as much pro-
vinder as possible be saved.
Just what TO do with badly
frosted corn crop is a question that
is pulling many farmers in Ken
lucky. Those who have silos III
which To put il need not puzzle long
over the question. The best place
for a frozen corn crop is in the silo.
I'm no other way can so nearly all
of the nutrimcnt be saved and led
TO advantage. Those who have no
silos should choose what will be,
under their circumstances, the least
wasteful method Of handling the
crop. There are three or four OPP
tons as follows:
Cut and shock the corn as soon as
possible. When dry and before
winter sets in. husk out the best ears
and feed the slower and immature
ears to cattle, sheep or horses. This
plan of handling saves most of the
feed and provides for wide distri-
button of supplies. II requires, how
ever, the maximum amount of labor.
Let the corn mature on the hill as
thoroughly as il will. Pick or husk
what is worth saving as soon as it
is dry enough to keep; then turn
stock, preferably cattle, into the field
to clean up the fodder and immature
ears. This plan calls for the least
possible labor but wastes some food.
Cut and shock at once in large
shocks. Haul and stack after freez-
ing weather comes on, or feed from

IRON IN OUR COMMON FOODS

Last week the Home Department
gave an outline showing the general
division Of foods in relation TO their

ton for different meals.
Since the average housekcepcr is
apt to overlook the mineral matter

that up for study this. week.
We find these three minerals to
be Of the greatest importance in the
body. iron. calcium, and phosphate.
These three minerals are present in

are ever necessary To the growth
Of the child and the maintenance OF
general health in grown people. or
these three minerals. iron stands
first in amount and importance.
Iron is obtained in very small
quantities in many things. The fol-
lowing list gives some common foods
arranged in the order of their i'm
porlancc as iron foods.
I. Spinach, .. Lean meat balls.

is represented in this list. Look the
list over and see il your meals have
a generous supply Of those high in
iron or low in irons. From oatmeal

iron. Are you serving all whit"
bread, or are you fair to your family
