States National Boys and Girls Week. is
being observed. The celebration VIII mark
the 10Th annual observance Of this i'm
portant youth event and perhaps never
before has it been so vital to stress char
acter building.
With the theme, Building fer ToI1or-
row with the Youth Of Today" the pro-
gram is designed to focus the attention
of the public on the problems, interests,
and recreations Of youth, and on the part
played by the home, church, school, and.
youth-serving organizations il the deVel-
opment of character and good citizenship
in growing boys and girls.
The activities planned for the observ-
ance emphasize important factors in the
growth of youth, including citizenship
training, education, recreation, occupation
al guidance, home life, religious education,
health and safety, tolerance and under
standing among nations and peoples and
membership in boys and girls organiza-
tons.
Local organizations working with the
youth movement for the best interest and
guidance of youth are to be congratulated.
Schools, churches and civic organizations
all have an important part to play.
We congratulate the Jeffersons Rotary
Club on the part it is taking in the
sponsorship of the hobby show, which is
arousing much interest on the part of boys
and girls. This event not only increases
pride in the work and habits of youth; but
gives youth an opportunity to show to the

way of skill and ingenuity.

To the author, the woodlands he wrote
about were really "green mansions" and
he named his book accordingly. Reading
the book, the forest seemed to actually
come alive, even to the murn1ur of the
woods and the sound of animal life Prov

KRAFT had confidence in the
territory when it acquired a plant
in West Jefferson" Moore said.
Our confidence in the future is
further demonstrated. by the
plans for providing patrons with
a still broader outlet for milk,
through remodeling of the plant.
A large quantity of fine milk is
being produced in this region
now. We believe a still greater
quantity of high grade milk will
be produced throughout years to
come.
"Remodeling will insure great
er efficiency in receiving and
processing milk. The new plant
means that farmers can proceed
with plans for. expanding milk
production in their herds with the
confident knowledge of a contin-
uing market.
''The plant will prove an even
greater economic asset to the
community. Increased milk pro-
duction naturally will result in
stepped-up cheese production.
This, in turn, will mean steady
employment for greater number
of people"
J. E. Bradshaw is manager of
the West Jefferson plant, and j.
H. Payne is in charge of field
work, cooperating with producers
in raising production and quality
standards.

lKEED Is SUBJECT
OF FARM ARTICLE

Some of the smart management
methods used by Harry E. Reed
on the place he operates near Mil
ford Center in Union county, are
described in an article in the July
issue of Capper's Farmer, entitled
"Angus-Shorthorn Feeders.
"Heavy-milking Shorthorn cows,
bred to a short-legged, thick-flesh-
ed Angus bull, give the best baby
beeves Harry E. Reed has ever
produced at the farm he operates, -
the story in the nationally circu-
lated farm magazine points out
He formerly produced Shorthorns,
but began crossing z years ago
Calves are black or blue roam, and
all of them are hornlesS."
'They are dropped in March and
April, and go out to pasture with
the cows by June. Creeps are pro-
vided near the water tank. Inside
is a feeder with a mixture, bulk
basis, of a third oats and two
thirds corn and cob meal. Calves
eat up to pounds a head daily OF
the grain mix before they are wean-
ed. Heifers finish earlier and are
sold ahead of steers. The latter
are continued on grain until they
weigh 300 pounds apiece or more.

automobile accident on the Col

which four persons were slightly
injured.
