MILK PRODUCTION

The production of milk can be
kept up to higher levels during the
months of July and August when 1T
can thus greatly assist in the nation
al defense program by helping to
build more food reserves If they will
increase the feeding of grain to
dairy cattle, Mr.. Held of the Towson
Production Credit Associate n,
stated.
Ample supplies of grain area vail
able because of the reserves in the
Ever-Normal Granary and the feed
ing of grain will help compensate
for the Try weather that has damag-
ed pastures in some esctions, and
which usually occurs in midsummer.
Already dairymen are applying to
the production credit association
for loans to purchase feed, Mr.. Held
said, indicating their willingness to
participate in the defense program.

ARMY CONSUMES HUGE MILK
PRODUCTS DAILY

United States soldiers in canton
ments and ON maneuvers have fresh
milk in their daily diet, the milk
industry foundation reported, for
the first time since the Revolution
airy War.
More than $4,000 quarts of fresh
milk, as well as 20 tons of butter
and more than 10 tons of cheese,
are consumed daily under the pres
ent diet which calls for OF. of
milk, 2 OF. of butter, OF. of evap-
Grated milk and "A OF. of cheese for
each man. This demand for fresh
milk and dairy products means that
more than 100000 quarts of milk
are required each day for pasteur-
izing and distribution or processing
into dairy products for the army.
The milk industry foundation also
reported that sales of fluid milk dur
ing May increased SO per cent over
the same period year ago. The
daily average for May showed sales
of 7,162,696 quarts compared with
6,576,696 quarts in May, 1914

MINIsTRATIoN OF sELEC-
TIVE SERVICE

"The outstanding manner In
which Selective Service is being adj
ministered In the State of Mary

ton from Selective Service head
quarters in washington.
In a letter received by Governor
Herbert r. O'Conor from Lewis B.
Hershey, Deputy Director, Selective
Service System, Washington, the
writer refers to visit paid to the
eighteenth annual Rural Women's
Short Course at College Park, Mary
land, and goes on to say: while
there had an opportunity to re-
ceive many impressions Of the man
ner in which Selective is being adj
ministered in it's relation to the de-
ferment of farm labor. I know you
will be pleased to hear that found
a most unusual enthusiasm on the
part of the people, with whom /
talked, in their support of Selective
Service. My impressions were that
this feeling was due in large part to
the very personalized and humaniz-
ed administration which is being
given to registrants in your State.
am sure you will be glad to know
that l heard most complimentary
things about the work individually
of Colonel Stanwood.
These impressions from those to
whom Selective Service is being ap-
piled confirmed the long standing
impression we have had here rela-
tive to the outstanding manner in
which Selective Service is being
administered in the State of Mary

which shows that it costs approximately
18c to feed hen during q single month.
Because Of this comparatively high
cost Of keeping q hen, 1t Is extremely
important to get as many eggs as pos
sible during the months Of September,
October, November and December when
egg prices are at their peak, reminds
O. 8. johnson, head of the poultry de-
partment, Purina Mills.
Unless special attention Is given the
flock during the fall and early winter
months, not enough eggs will be pro-
duced to pay expenses, let alone q
profit, he says. Left to herself, hen
won't start to lay until she gets the
spring urge" Often that isn't until
February and March, when eggs aye
plentiful and prices drop.
ITS pretty expensive putting l3c
worth Of feed into hen each month
during the fall and winter Just to have
her around for few eggs In the spring
and summer" Johnson maintains. 'It,s
the hens that lay In the fall and win
ter that make the largest profits. When
q hen isn't laying eggs, she isn't paying
for her keep, let alone making profit"
Editors note: How to get winter
eggs is explained In Purina Mills latest

Commercial telephone service to
Smith Island, Maryland and Tangier
Island, Virginia, those isolated spots
in the Chesapeake Bay often referred
to as the "lost islands," was officially
opened for use recently when Cover
nor Herbert O'Conor of Maryland and
Governor James Fl. Price of Virginia
extended greetings to the islanders
over the new radiotelephone system.
The many months of work required
to develop and install the necessary
equipment was climaxed by a meeting
on Smith Island, followed by q
similar ceremony on Tangier. Mrs.
w. H. Kohl, wife of Smith Islands
minister, inaugurated that islands
new system by calling Governor
O'Conor at the executive mansion in
Annapolis. At Tangier, the Rev. Mr..
]. H. Billingsley exchanged greetings
with Governor Price in Richmond.
Prior to the official calls, r. F.
DeButts, District Manager for the
Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone
Company Of Baltimore City at Sails
bury, Md, delivered a talk at both
meetings in which he discussed the
development and construction Of the
system and explained various features
of it's operation.
The unusual telephone system, the
I first of it's kind in the country, is the
result Of considerable planning and
study by the Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Companies Of Virginia and
Maryland. Previous to It's installa-
ton, the islands had been provided
with restricted communications
through the use Of emergency radio
telephone equipment set up in the
latter part of 1889. Transmission of
this equipment was necessarily con-
fined to emergency calls but these
were so frequent that they emphasized
the urgent need Of the islanders for
q more extensive telephone service.
! Separated from the mainland by some
10 or IL miles of water, the Smithmen
and Tangiermen have frequently been
! isolated in winter months and as a
result have suffered hardships due to

Washington, d. Clover prices
for fertilizers due to industry econo-
mics have saved farmers 5000, 900, 900
year, according to government analy-
sis made by A. L. Mehring of the U. S.
Department of Agriculture who shows
that the sharp downward trend of fer
tilizer prices since 1880 was inter-
rupted only during the period of the
last war; when, due to our country's
dependence at that time on foreign
supplies, prices rose sharply. After
that they again resumed their down
ward trend. At the same time the
industry made the nation self-sufi-
Gent and no longer largely dependent
upon foreign sources of supply.
"Prices dropped sharply during the
depression and have never recovered
to the extent that other commodities
have. AS result of this fact, fer.

lack of medical supplies and food.
In September 1910, the C. and p.
Companies applied to the Federal
Communications Commission for per-
mission to construct radio trans
hitting station on Smith and Tangier
Islands to provide telephone communi-
cation between these points and the
mainland. In October 1910, the
FEC. granted this permission and
construction of the present system was
begun.
Although featuring several new de-
velopments in telephone science, the
system is similar to that which pro-
vides radiotelephone service to ships
at sea. Equipment, including radio
antenna poles and transmitting and
receiving apparatus, is installed at
Tangier and Smith and on the Bay
shore one mile south Of Crisfield, Md.
Additional equipment is in the Girls
field central Office, which acts as a
control center for all calls to and from
the islands. An interesting feature
Of the new system is it's automatic
operation. Special equipment de-
veloped by the Bell Laboratories
makes possible instant automatic
operation of the necessary power
machinery and the transmitting and
receiving apparatus involved in a
radiotelephone call to the mainland.
Four telephones are located at
strategic points on each of the islands.
A call to the mainland merely involves
picking up the receiver Of one Of
these telephones. This automatically
opens the radio channel to Crisfield
and signals the operator in the central
Office who then completes the call from
there. Calls from one island to an
other will also be handled by the Girls
field operator.
The equipment also makes possible
intercommunication between inhabi-
tants of the same island. Each tele-
phone is equipped with key which
lis switched one way for radiotele-
phone service and another way for
local conversation on the island.

tilizer prices today give the farmer
real parity for his dollar" says
Charles J. Brand, Executive Secretary
and Treasurer of The National Fertil-
izer Association. "Prices received by
farmers for their products today
would have to go up 81 per cent to
reach parity with what farmers pay
for all commodities which they buy.
But, so far as fertilizer is concerned,
the picture is different. The present
price Of fertilizer is SO low that it
gives the farmer, instead of 81 per
cent handicap, per cent advantage
on every dollar he spends for fertil-
izer."
Returns from a recent survey of
$4,000 farmers show that an invest
ment in low-priced fertilizers yields
high returns. An average of $3.50
returned for each $1.00 which they
spent for fertilizer.

Coal Output Before Tieup
Greatest Since 1923

The work stoppage of Appala-
chan soft coal mines has resulted in
the closing of IS to 80 per cent OF
the Nations bituminious coal mines
at a time when their output was
greater than it had been since 1923,
authorities of the industry said
here.
While production has been shut
off in both Northern and Southern
Appalachian regions, some of the
mines in the Midwestern and
Western States are still open. But
the mines in operation employ less
than $4,000 men at present, as COM
pared with the 100000 that are idle
because Of the Appalachian stop
page.
In the first three months OF le4l.
about 130,000,000 tons Of soft coal
were produced in the United States.
Had this rate of production been
maintained throughout the year, the
total 1941 output would have been
520,000,000 tons, as compared with
453 900 900 tons in 1910.
Current soft coal output has
slumped to 100000 tons a week.
while increased defense industry
demands might readily require H.
100000 tons it was said.
States in which some mines are
still open include Western Kentucky,
Illinois. Indiana. Kansas, Missouri.
Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Montana
and Washington.
