One way Of keeping our feet
on the ground

Wbata changed worMHsp.zs for the first
balloonist. He saw hills and valleys level
out. He saw dark clouds serving thrill
ing purpose when they reflected a gor-
geous sunset. He got new perspective.
Wise is the man who takes broad
view of today's events and keeps them
always in true focus. He makes no noun
tain out of rurnor and sees no valley as
deep as the despair of the pessimists. He
is confident that he can take the hurdles
as they come.
Such,a man has the will to work-and
the good judgment to relax when work
is done. Moderate in all things, in his
thoughts and in his activities, he is living
really living and for his family
and among his friends. Gle is unusual if
he doesn't usually serve Budweiser.) He
is, indeed, the backbone Of America.

Deacor1s Play
Penn Thursday!

Wake Forest, March 20-Thc folks
who printed your calendar might not
nave recorded Thursday as unusual,
but Wake Forest baseball fans have
marked that day with red'pencil.
The DeacOnS Of Wake Forest meet
The University Of Pennsylvania
Thursday afternoon ON the Baptlsts
Groves Field, the game beginning at
$50. Ii is the first Of the season ICr
both teams. Pennsylvania IS Oh 4
Southern tour.
Inclement weather conditions on
the homegrounds Of both Wake For
est and Pennsylvania have cut down
on early-season practice, so it is hard
to figure the outcome OF the tilt by
other means than by last seasons
record.
TO say the very least, the Penn
sylvanians have team Of versatile
players. Probably the strongest sec
ton Of the team is the hurting staff,
which was touched lightly by gradu-
alton last year. Tony Caputo, Quak-
er veteran, is slated to start against
the Deacs, but he will share his as
signment with Lin FaWley, who has
nad much mound experience.
Probably the most valuable man
for the Quakers is Frank Reagan,
who last season won three and lost
two as a pitcher. He played III the
outfield or caught while not on the
mound and generally showed a fire
ability. He batted .343 and had a
fielding average OF .997 for the sea-
son.
Murray Greason, Deacon mentor.
laid that Tommy Byrne and Jim
Oenning will face the Pennsylvania
clouters, but that it hasn't been de-
cided just who will start the game.
Wake Forest isn't generally re-
garded as 4 potential giant-killer at
bat, but instead, accredit most of
their wins to work afield. For that
reason, there is seldom 4 scoring
spree when the Deacs take the field.
Bill Swell, Of Wake basketball fame,
catches for the DeacS and is pretty
consistent in his hitting, as are Jack
Williams and Fred EaSon, two vet
eran outfielders, and Dick Hoyle.

Drifted Soil Regions
Are Easily Restored

Harvesting the wind to undo its
own damage gets results at less ex-
pense than doing the job mechan-
ically, experiments where wind ero-
sion has formed dunes indicate.
Once a dune has formed sharp
crest, the tendency is for it to grow
higher and higher. But concentrat-
ing the wind cuts the crest and
moves the sand until it is shallow
enough for planting to crops that
will check blowing.
One OF the simplest and least ex-
pensive methods is to fill gunny-
sacks with the dune sand and set
them fairly close together on the
crest. This concentrates the wind,
and as the crest lowers, the sacks
sink and continue the work. Drag
poles drawn by two teams, one on
the crest of the dunes and one on
the lee slope also loosen the sand on
the crest and break the sharp ridge.
So, too, do one-way disk outfits.
Dunes usually are surrounded by
areas wind-stripped down to the
hard subsoil which will not grow
crops. Deep-listing these eroded
| areas catches considerable sand as
the wind moves it away from the
dunes. When the hard clay and the
freshly deposited sand are mixed,
cropping possibilities are improved
| Deep-listing also catches and holds
| rainfall.
Lowering the dunes, and mixing
sand with clay in nearby areas, are
only the first Of essential steps. The
next important step Is to stimulate
plant growth. Until plants start tt
grow, these blown areas are still II
| critical conditions. Crops of drouth
resistant plants such as sorghum:
or native weeds cut the sweep Of ths
winds and their roots bind the sandy
soil.

SHEEP CARE is
FULL-TIME JOB
Winter Protection of Ewes
Pays Dividends.
By l.. X. BEAR

Lambs may not gambol in the
sprinetime if their owners do some
gambling in the winter by failing
to give the eve flock enough atten-
ton to insure the production OF a
healthy lamb crop, according to ex-
periments in animal husbandry at
Ohio State university.
The eve has two tasks to perform
in producing a good lamb and 9
fair clip of wool, and she cannot
succeed unless the raw materials
needed are supplied by the flock
owner. Ewes will 60 through the
winter in good shape with only home
grown roughages until six or eight
weeks before Landing.
However, there are vast differ
ences in roughages. Good legume
hay provides the protein needed BY
the ewes but timothy hay and corr
stalks do not. Farmers also should
remember this winter that corr
stalks and leaves have had their
usual feeding value reduced by I'M
usual fall weather.
Protein supplement in the form o.
linseed meal, cottonseed oil meal
soybean oil meal, or whole soybeans
should be fed TO ewes which do mo-
get legume hay.
Shepherds are cautioned to re
member that a mature eve needs
about a gallon of water daily, al
though some people think sheep re
quire little or no water. Farmers
who buy sheep tonics and compe
their f1ocks to drink from filthy wa
tering places are spending none,
uselessly.
Calcium can be furnished TIL
ewes in the form Of finely grouns
limestone. Loose salt placed II
troughs permits the ewes to get thl
necessity without breaking teeth il
gnawing supply from salt blocks.
The eve fiocks have difficult,
enough performing their two task
OF lamb and wool production with
out supporting a horde of mterna
parasites. The parasites can be re
moved by treatments described l

Nebraska Unicameral
Reduces Costs Again

Nebraska's unicameral legislature,
which cut laW-making costs in half
at its first session in 1887, reduced
expenses in 1889 by an additional
s2,767, a report by William Edward
johnson, president of the legislature
shows.
Although the 1889 session was the
longest in the history of the state
Ill days-the expense of running
it. including members salaries,
wages of officers and employees,
postage, supplies, printing and in
cidentals, was only $l00,678, the re-
port said
Nebraska legislators are paid q
straight salary by the year, not by
the day. Of the 523 bills they in
/ troduced this year, 1873 passed and
became laws, while six others were
vetoed by the governor
The length of the 1889 session was
due to combination Of problems
'sthe like of which no previous Ne
braska legislature, either uni Of
bicameral, had to face" according
to the report. OF special concern
were the financing and administra
ton of athe old age assistance pro
gram, the reduction of the stat
| budget, and the issues that aros'
between the federally financed by
dro-electric power districts and tn
private power industry.
The most CONSPICUOUS act of tn
second unicameral legislature, TIA
report said, was the budget bill
which effected a reduction of 81,
