For Radio Listeners
By Brvson Rash

The sound and fury have passed
The long vigils by radio newsmer
have ended. Engineers have packed
their equipment and broadcast cir
cults have been removed The war
time activity of radio Is a matter
of record. The people of these
United States have been the best
informed of any in the world and
radio has contributed it's share.
Let.us not here review what radio
has done in these last grim, hectic
exciting months and years. Let us
rather look forward to the promise
of what the peace will bring into
your home.
The first general conclusion is
that the present standard system OF
broadcasting is doomed, except per-
haps for a small number of very
high-power stations to serve rural
areas in the United States. To take
the place of todayS broadcast
method your radio will be operated
on the F. M. or frequency modula-
ton basis. The principal advantage
of F. M. is that you can enjoy
Staticless and noise-free reception
Higher fidelity is also a tremendous
factor.

cations on file with the FEC for

the number that the market can

too, that stations may be operated
by private or public organizations
such as the Clio or the Board of

In television, programming is the
big problem. The demand for new

problem. 1t is that you are produc-

attendant problems OF staging, writ

answer probably will be, at least in

Capture of Cologne
REEVES Interest in
Famed City's Past

The great Rhineland city, Cologne,
captured by American forces in
early March, has been famous for
1000 years. Its aluminium and syn
thetic rubber factories have made it
the target for devastating bomber
raids in this war. Power plants and
bridges have also been blasted, but
the beautiful and immense cathedral
has suffered little damage.
Situated on the Rhine, about 10
air miles upstream from the Neither
lands frontier, Cologne sprawls over
both banks of the river, the old town
lying on the left, says the National
Geographic society. On the right
bank are the annexed suburbs of
Deutz, Mulheim, Kalk, and Vingst,
the fair grounds, and several amuse-
ment parks. The countryside is low
and fiat.
A boom period in the 10Th century
expanded the city. Fortifcations
were pulled down to make way for
new streets and housing. Blocks of
modern dwellings soon spread in a
thick, crescent growth west of the
so-called ring streets" -boulevard
paved on the curving line of the
ancient ramparts. In some places
the rings" expand into spaces laid
out with flower beds and edged with
trees. Ancient city gates were made
into museums. Fragments of Roman
ruins remind citizens of their civic
origin.
In the heyday of the Hanse towns,
Cologne had a brisk trade in silk,
spices and other products of east
ern lands, goods transported over
Alpine passes from the Mediter-
ranean and foated down the Rhine
to be distributed throughout west
ern Europe. Wines from up the
river were transshipped at Cologne
to seagoing vessels. So large was
the export trade that Cologne mer-
chants had their own docks in Lon
don. Weights and measures stand
ard in Cologne were used in almost
every town of the Rhine area, West
phalia and the Netherlands. Its
Easter fair drew visitors from far
places in Europe and from abroad.
Like other Hanse towns, Cologne
rapidly lost commercial leadership
after the 10th century. New trade
routes had opened; strong rivals
sprang up. When the French
took over the old free city in 1894
they found only 10000 inhabitants,
most of them destitute. Develop
ment Of. the Ruhr valley, steamships
and railroads revived commerce,
made Cologne once more a thriving
export center.
Cologne's name dates from A. D.
SO when the Roman Emperor
Claudius established a colony for
war veterans, and called it Colonia
Agrippina in honor of his wife. Her
name was eventually dropped, the
towns name becoming Cologne in
French, Koln in German.
From the end of the fifth century
the city belonged to the kingdom of
the Franks, and was raised by
Charlemagne to the rank of an arch
bishopric. Citizens contested the
power of the churchmen, guilds re-
sisted mobiles, noble families fought

among themselves. Torn with con-
flict and dissension, Cologne pre-
sented a paradox of prosperity. By
the end of the 18th century it had be-
come one of Germany's richest
cities. After Waterloo it was under
Prussian rule.
Fifth largest city in the Reich,
Cologne was normally credited with
population of 76S,426. During the
present war, it has become a GEN.
ter for production of plane and u
boat engines, textiles and leather.
Well-developed transportation has
assured a flow of the citys industrial
lifeblood-coal and coke from the
nearby Ruhr valley, iron from Lor-
raine. Railways and roads fan
out in all directions. The Rhine in
peacetime bore 100000 tons of
shipping year, with the city's
share about 100000 tons.

FOLLOW THE FAD-SEIONS

It's not always what you wear that
counts, it's how you wear it. For
instance, last year everybody was
buttoning cardigans down the back.
This year it's sharper to wear your
cardigans open down the front over
a blouse with only the top button
fastened. Would you like to hear
more? Read on, MacDuff.
Streaming Scarfs - Much newer
than velvet ribbon bands for your
hair are printed scarfs, folded into
wide crushed bands and tied around
your hair with the ends hanging
down at one side. You look like a
gypsy sweetheart.
Slick Suspenders - The way to
make a plain blouse and skirt look
like real ensemble is to add pair
of suspenders. The fad is for felt
suspenders with your name embroid-
cred on 'em.
Hot Feet-Lots of girls are dyeing
those heavy white sweat socks in
bright colors to go with their sweat
ers. Also-lots of girls are wearing
boys argyle plaid socks-the bright
er the better.

by the farmer to spray his hog
pens, his dairy barn and his out
buildings. By using diesel oil, or
other weed killer, the farmer can
economically kill weeds and then,
after emptying the machine and re-
filling with the proper disinfectant,
he can attack and destroy fruit or
vegetable pests.

results are poor feeding and loss of
weight as well as injury and miring
down.
Kidding the cattle of grubs, how
ever, is only one use for the power
sprayer. 1t has many other uses,
such as embarrassing, painting and
disinfecting, for fly and mosquito
control, killing weeds, and spraying
fruits and vegetables. One of the
most important and newest uses is
for spraying dry grass or hay with
molasses to make food palatable
for cattle. The machine also will
serve as fire engine in emergen-
cieS.
Because of their war uses, how
ever, only few of the sprayers will
be available to farmers for while.
The rancher leads busy life and
usually does not have time to de-
vote several days to painting a barn
by hand. AS consequence the
buildings suffer from the ravages of
weather. With the paint gun attach
ment, he can easily paint a barn of
ordinary size in few hours.
Even the farmers wife can use
the machine, it is so simple, and she
can rid the ranch of many of the
flies, lice and ticks that invade her
chicken house, and the grounds sur
rounding her home. She thus pro-
tects the health of her family and
of her flock.

High Pressure Spray Forces Out, Kills Cattle Crubs
New Treatment Promises
To Conquer Ranching
Industry's Worst Pest

Cattle grubs, those ugly parasites
that cause a loss of leather, meat
and milk valued at 100 million dol
lars annually, can now be controlled
by spraying. The insecticide, mixed
with water, is blown into the hair
on the backs of the infested ami
mails. At a pressure of between $50
and 400 pounds the solution pene-
trates the holes that the grubs have
burrowed in the skin. The grubs
come out and die soon afterwards.
A portable pumping unit provides
the pressure for spraying the insecti-
eide. At recent demonstration on
a ranch near Fresno, Calf, group
of agricultural experts and farm
journal editors watched while a
herd of Hereford cattle was treated
with the spray. The animals were
driven into a chute, and as each
one passed the operator, he played
the nozzle over its back, washing
off dirt, grease and scabs as well
as killing the grubs.
The cattle grub and heel fly are
different forms of the same insect.
Starting in the spring, when it is
in the fly form, the heel fly lays
eggs on the heel and belly hairs of
the animals. These eggs hatch into
maggotS which work their way
through the hide and enter the
muscle tissues. During the next nine
months these maggots migrate
through the internal organs of the
1aff1a - ole %L1 L,1
CystS are formed and the mag
gots then turn into grubs about an
inch long. In the spring they work
their way out of the holes in the
hide and fall to the ground. Within
few weeks they turn into heel
flies and the yearly cycle repeats it.
self.
The u. S. department of agricul-
ture arrives at its $1OO,OOO,O0O loss
in meat, milk and leather in the fol-
lowing ways:
~ Every hide with five or more
grub holes is classed as No. 2 grade,
at a discount of one cent a pound.
Hides with very many grub holes
must be used for by-products, as
they are not worth tanning. 1t is esti-
mated that enough leather was lost
this way during l94l to provide
shoes for a million marching men
for an entire year.
(2) Millions of pounds of the best
beef are trimmed away from grubby
carcasses every year by packers,
and this loss is reflected in the price
paid for cattle on the hoof and meat
in the retail markets.
(3) Milk production has been
shown to suffer as much as Is per
cent from the presence of grubs in
cow. Heel fly attacks can cause
an equal loss in production.

grubs in cattle makes them sluggish
and unthrifty. They lose weight or
