office and in department and inter-
departmental committees.
AS has been reported already, the
Hoover Commission would add one
cabinet department to the present
llst-the Department of Health
Education and Security. 1t also has
been indicated that the Interior
Department might undergo a COM
prehensive revision of functions and
even of name with the transfer OF
most of its activities affecting land
to the Agriculture Department.
There is reported to have been
considerable sentiment in the
Hoover Commission for setting up
a Department of Conservation, but
this appears to have been given up
Under the commissions plan
there would be, after the cabinet
departments, second category OF
agencies reporting to the President
but without cabinet rank These
would include the Veterans Admin
istration, the Atomic Energy Com
mission under its chairman, the
Housing Administration, the new
General Services Office, and the
reerouping of certain other services
into administrations.
Some Would Be Independent.
So far as their regulatory func-
tions are concerned these agencies
would remain independent:
The Federal Reserve Board, IN
terstate Commerce Commission
Federal Trade Commission, Civil
Service Commission, Federal Com
munications Commission, National
Labor Relations Board, Maritime
Commission. Securities and Ex
change Commission, Civil Aeronau-
tics Board and the Tariff Commits
sion.
One of the matters which the
Hoover Commission has labeled as OF
primary importance was establish
ing a definite line of authority and
matching responsibilities with the
powers to meet them. 1t has found
that lines of authority and response
bility now are diffused by detailed
directions of Congress, administra-
tive procedures and political pres
sures.
In addition to getting the execu-
tive agencies down to workable
number it would strengthen the

DR.. Butts had administered the

member of the family had been

Bureau now performing this duty
In part would be transferred to the
new agency.
The commission is said to have
found that the executive agencies
not only had 47,5O0,0OO worth OF
printing done at the Government
Printing Office in fiscal 1947, but
also operated 1873 printing plants
and more than $50 duplicating
plants at a cost of $25,0O0,000.
The White House Office. in addi-
ton to the new Personnel Office
and the two agencies from the Ma
tional Military Establishment, would
include the Office of the Budget
and the Office of the Economic Ad-
wiser, headed by an economic ad-
wiser to the President. The Budget
Bureau and the Council of Eco
nomic Advisers headed by chair
man are now part OF the execu-
tive Office.
The Hoover Commission is re-
ported as of the opinion that none
of the agencies of the White House
Office should have any independent
powers of their own and should be
headed by officers appointed by
and responsible only to the Presi-
dent.
Also said to be favored are pro-
visions for the appointment Of ad-
visory commissions and the en-
ployment of consultants and that
the President may determine the
makeup and work of any Cabinet
or interdepartmental committee set
up to advise him on any policy mat
ter.

In setting trees, be sure to
spread out roots in a natural po-

roots. Dig holes for trees just
large and deep enough to hold the
roots in a natural position, and
set the tree about one inch deeper
than it grew in the nursery.

Shellac was used on half these

Penetrating seal proved most

concludes. All the women who
finished floors with the seal

Many also were satified with
shellac and varnish but some had
objections. Some complained
about white spots or scratches

It's time to 'wintcrize" your
poultry program. Winter produc-
ton is profitable production, but
it takes careful attention to de-
tails and good management.
These cool nights, doors and
windows should be closed on 8
sides Of the poultry house. Let
only side stay open. Drafts on
cool nights might mean colds or
Group and most certainly a drop
in egg production and a drop in

Before long, we'll not only have
cool nights put cold days and

on 3 sides of the poultry house

ly for the winter. If these win
dows and doors do not fit tight

fort Of your hens is to add more
litter on the floor. Floor litter
should be 8 to 10 inches deep.

Crane vines and pecan trees.
Trees set now will stand less
chance of loss than those planted
later. Root systems of early plant
ed trees will become better estab-
lished before growth starts in the
spring.
Plan the orchard before order
ing nursery stock. About one
half acre is needed for a complete
home orchard. Varieties of
peaches recommended are Belle
Of Georgia, J. H. Hale, Early
liberia, Carman and Hale Ha-
ven. New varieties recently de-
veloped and showing promises in
Mississippi are Red Haven, Dixie
Red, Fireglow, Sun High, Esr'v-
Red-Fire, Fisher, New Day, Trio
gem and Rattan Rose. Real early
varieties are May Flower and
Early Rose.
Best orchard site is well
drained sandy loan soil with a
deep area surrounded by woods.
Prepare the soil well by deep
breaking and disking before set
ting trees. On land subject to
erosion, construct wide terraces
and plant trees on the terraces
and on contour lines between the
terraces.

Over Grasing OF oats

As I have travelled over the

Of farmers over grazing their oats.
You will get better results by not
grazing too close. The oats should
never be grazed lower than 2 in
ches. If they are grazed closer
than this it takes them much
longer to come back than it would
if they were not grazed SO close
If your oats were fertilized prop
erly they should support about
500 pounds beef per acre. How.
ever, from my observations
have observed 3 to 4 cows pei
acre over the county. Where this
condition occurs it would be bet.
ter to Craze your oats at few
days intervals or 30 to 40 minutes
each day rather than let your
cows remain on the oats all time.
When you have grazed your
oats to the extent that you OBJ
serve bear spots on the ground
you are beginning to over Craze
and your oats will not give you a
satisfactory return if they are
over grazed.

used in the control of cattle grubs.
Just dust this material on the
backs and rub your hand over the
back as you dust so the material
may sift into the holes cut in the
coh's back by the grubs. The time
of year varies as to when the first
holes will be cut in the cows
back. Usually in this area it is
from December LIST until January
LIST, so you will have to determine
tn time to dust the material on the
back by checking your cows.
When 25% of the knots have holes
cut in them it is time to give your
