DAIRY HERDS
And about getting that dairy
herd or the family milk cow ready
for winter a few things may be
mentioned, that needs considera-
ton:
Feed only the best roughage
and silage available. Best means
good green, leafy alfalfa or other
legumes. Much more milk will be
produced by using good quality
hay than by using coarse, stemmy
bleached out hay.
Too late for this year, but keep
in mind for next year.
Check the barn carefully to
see that cows will not be over
crowded; that the lighting facii-
ties are adequate and safe; that
the floors are sound and such that
cows will not slip and that the
ventilation without drafts will
meet the needs Of your herd.
2-Do not let the cows remain
out at night on cold, wet ground.
Provide them with a dry, well
bedded place out of the weather.
Swatch the cows carefully and
see that they 60 onto the winter
feeding program.
4-Give them plenty Of water.
A heavy producing cow will drink
$50 pounds of water daily. Warm
the water in cold weather.

Howard F. Lebaron, former San
Antonio. Tex, newspaper editor, has

tions Board, succeeding Charles T.

Mr.. Lebaron has been regional
director for the 10th region in At
lanta for the past two and one-half

board eliminated a long and bitter
fight. His continuance as regional
director was opposed by Chairman
Harry A. Mills and John M. Hous-
ton, but was supported by the third
member, Gerard D. Reilly.
Certain elements in the CIO had
vigorously objected to Mr.. Douds
administration Since last Friday
Robert r. Rissman of the Chicago
office had been acting director. The
board said he would resume his

WPB Names Committee
To Study Steel Shortage
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
An emergency committee on steel
has been set up by the War Produc-
ton Board to find means of coping
with a critical shortage expected to
develop in the next few months.
WPB Chairman j. A. Krug an
nounced today the emergency panel
is headed by Hiland G. Batcheller,
WPB's chief of operations and head
of Allegheny-Ludlum Steel Co. of
Pittsburgh.
Steel demands of the armed forces
and other claimants for the second
quarter of this year are about 3,000,-
900 tons higher than the estimated
$4,000 ,000-ton output of carbon steel.
These demands will be whitfield down
by WLB. but the problem is COM
plicated by "carry-over" of orders
on steel mills for 100000 additional
tons not met in the first quarter. The
latter orders must be filled before
the new demands are met.

ton, Mass. commanding officer of a
fighting squadron aboard carrier of

Comdr. Bakutis chased the fighter
for more than SO miles at low alti-
tude in his Grumman Hellcat fighter
At long range he opened up on it
with his .50-caliber gum and the
