MIR. FARLEY MAKES A SHIFT
Jim Farley has retired as National
Democratic chairman to head the
New York Yankees. Eight years of
football have been enough.
Jim will find it relief to be in
field where the pitcher doesn't want
to bat, field and coach at one and
the same time.
For nearly a decade he has been
head over heels in national politics,
where use of the "bean BALI is
strictly ethical, and that's been long
enough to convince him that life is
more satisfactory in business
where it's use is at least officially
discouraged.
Jim is an old baseball man him.

Geese are saving lot of Arkansas
cotton from ruin by gobbling weeds
16 hours day. Farmers in a west
ern Mississippi county today keep
flocks of from rs to 100 geese busy
in cotton patches from sunup to
sunset. Pestiferous Johnson grass is
especially relished by these birds,
which eat steadily up and down the
rows in both wet and dry weather.
Some of the farmers sell their geese
after the cotton season, while others
keep them the year round.

Roughage Fed Cow
Affects Milk Color

Recent studies have shown that
the type of roughage fed to dairy
cows greatly affects the amount
of yellow color in milk.
Green pasture grasses and leg
umes head the list of feeds which
produce high color. Closely fol-
lowing pasture on the list is grass
and legume silage of good quail
ity. Good field cured hay, when
new, and corn silage are only
fair, while hay of poor quality
and beet pulp produce milk which
is very low in color.
The yellow color of milk is due
to pigment called carotene.
When carotene is taken into the
body, it is converted into vitamin
A. An increase in the yellow
color of the milk of a COW means,
therefore, an increase in vitamin
A potency.

er intends to keep pitching or to
take job as coach at third.
There is a rumor that one of his
last acts as postmaster-general will
be to design DiMaggio postage

We wish Jim lots of luck in the
baseball world. And we hope he
doesn't find the change so confusing
that he will signal for a caucus in
stead of the hit and run play.

sponsible for extras such as buns,
butter, reishes, etc. There'n be a
serving committee and cleanup
committee, as well.
Picnics for four or five families
are usually cooperative affairs.
Each family may supply it's own
lunch, but more often each one pro-
vides one item in large enough guam
titles to serve the crowd. One fam
lily might provide the salad, one the
meat, and still another family the
dessert, which might be watermel-
on, a luscious chocolate cake, or a
freezer full of old fashioned ice
cream. With little planning, the
cost can be fairly equally distrib-
uted.
When an outing is in the ofing and
it's up to you to plan the menu for
crowd, you'll find these picnic
pointers helpful.
1. If lunch is being prepared at
home, choose foods that permit be-
forehand preparation, and that are
not too difficult to carry or to serve.
2. Provide fairly simple meal,
with plenty of everything but not so
much variety that it will cause con-
fusion and lots of extra work.
3, Unless you are sure of a good
water supply, it's better to carry the
water from home.
4. Carry fruit juices, tomato juice
or milk in thermos bottles.
5. The main dish for the picnic
which might be chill, baked beans,
or escalloped potatoes, can be
cooked the day before, then in the
morning brought to the boiling point,
and the dutch oven or casserole
wrapped in several thicknesses of
newspaper to retain the heat.
6. Don't overlook the possibilities
in frozen foods for picnic use. Quick
frozen meats can be carried, with
out ice, even on a warm day. They
thaw out on the way to the picnic
ground and will be ready to use.
