Sulfabenamide has been used with
encouraging results in the treatment
Of tuberculosis. reports DR.. Richard
Gubner of the Long Island college
of medicine. Part sulfa and part
fatty acid, the drug penetrates the
waxy outer coat of the tuberculosis
germ. Prolonged treatment or large
doses gave no harmful effects. In
five cases of advanced pulmonary
tuberculosis, daily doses were kept
up for an average period of ten
months. tuberculosis germs disap-
peared from the sputum of all five,
and x-ray pictures showed that the
lungs had healed.

The Sportsmen club will be more
than pleased to handle applications
for seeds or trees. Wilford Geiger
and Harry Barnes club directors in
charge of the program urge appliea-
tions be turned in Immediately in
order to be sure of receiving the units
in time for planting this spring. APP
plications will also be received in
care of this column.
Fish Count Due Before Atom Test
A fish census will be one of the
main preliminaries to the atomic
bomb tests in the far Pacific this
spring. Scientists of the Fish and
Wildlife Service will go to the Bikini
Atoll area six weeks before the first
bomb is dropped in May to estimate
the fish population. They'll return
sone time after the second bomb is
dropped to make a comparison.
Maybe a small bomb dropped in
the Buckeye quarry locally would be
a means of eradicating the overpopu-
lation of shad inhabitating the place.
To date local fishermen have not been
able to suggest feasible plan for
getting rid of the surplus. Shad are
prolific, and too many shad produce
too many fry. Fishing is impaired
as a result of the vast quantities of
shad fry prevalent which are easy
prey as food for the other fishes. OF
course such bomb would undoubted-
ly eliminate all the other fish too
and maybe the quarry site-but at
least we would be rid of the shad
surplus.

The greatest single expense in
milk production is the cost of feed,
so the best chance of reducing pro-
duction costs is to lower feed costs.
Feeding trials at the Experiment
Station show that use of high quail
ity hay and the maximum use of
pastures provide two ways of reduc-
ing the annual feed bill. Another
practical way is to Gull out the cows
which are poor producers even when
we'll fed.

Baseball Diamond

planned by conservation commission
er II. A. (Buck) Rider as part of an
action program to restore this favor

As result otherwise unproductive
areas on the farm can be made to
yield real benefits in the form of
game, fur, and as a measure of pro-
lection against destructive insects and
weeds.
The patch planting program offers
a real opportunity for raising food
for the feeding of wildlife during the
winter months. Such seeds as corn,
soybeans, sunfower, Kaffir corn, buck
wheat, are available to plant plots of
one acre or one-half acre size.

Ohio farmers still are searching
for Clinton seed oats although Ohio
State agronomists have tried to in
form them that no oats of that
variety are available for general sale
for 1916 paintings. The seed avail
able has been distributed to farmers
in the states where it was produced,
which does not include Ohio. Seed
should be obtainable for use in 1947,
and Ohio agronomists will continue
testing this variety in comparison
with varieties commonly grown here.

Avon, Conn. 'Broncho Bill' Schindler, the Freeport, N. Y. ace who made a bit of racing history by winning the inaugural feature at Cherry Park Speedway in a new, untried car owned by Harry Hull of Woodbury, will be back trying for double this Sunday night to prove it wasn't luck.
