That's why I've been impressed
with the way the baby entertain
ment medium. televlslon. has ac-
cepted the Negro entertainer,
While we don't find televiSion
networks too anxious to build
shows around Negroes. they AT
least accept him without carl
cature and without open preju-
dice.
And while the teevee nets
are reluctant iobuild Negro
shows. many OF the top shows
on felevision have shown not
only a willingness 10 accept the
Negro as an equal. they have
shown a Desire 10 do so.
Such top television stars as
Arthur Godfrey. Milton Berle. Ed
Sullivan. Jack Carter and a host
Of others have insisted upon
presenting the Negro entertain
ers on their shows as the COM
plcte social equals of other en-
ertainers appearing on the same
shows.
In other words. il appears that
the infant entertainment indus
try is giving Negroes an oppor-
tunity 10 present themselves as
respectable human beings. not as
the lazzbos' Of most ohter media.
The Negro is as he does on
television, and let's hope II con-
tinues that way.
Many Negro entertainers
have fgound il easier TO con-
form 10 the .caricatures expect
cd Of them than 10 fight those
discriminatory elements. so
there are Negro entertainers
who still wear loud clothes or
root suits and who submit 10

or than honest Negroes.
1t is hard to blame the enter
tainer for this and | don't doubt
that | may have offended my
self. unintentionally. But now is
the time to fight for self repect
II television is willing to look up
on the Negro as an equal. and as
a human being. we entertainers
should bend every effort TO re-
presenting the members ~ our
race with respect and truthful

Earth Floors Said
Best for Poultry

Earth floors in poultry houses
provide a foundation to modern
poultry-raising if they will use
built-up litter.
Mahlon Sweet, extension spec
ialist in poultry at Ohio State
University, says it isn't necessary
in fact it's poor economics to put
I an expensive wood or concrete
floor in a poultry house.
''The trend is back to earth
floors" now that the value of
built-up litter is recognized,
Sweet says. Built-up litter can be
made good sanitation procedure
and a source of valuable nutri-
ents, 1t is a source of the animal
protein fatcors including Vita
min B-1.
Sweet says four primary re-
quirements are necessary to pro-
vide favorable conditions for
built-up litter to work the best.
Built-up litter should be to IL
inches deep so it will absorb
fresh droppings and moisture
Depth lets chemical reactions
take place and provides a home"
for helpful bacteria.
To keep litter in an absorbent
condition the farmer will have
to stir it when it begins to cake
over on the surface Sanitation
takes place when droppings are
mixed into the lower part of the
litter where chemical and biolo-
gical activities take place.
Moisture and heat are needed
for activities that go on in built
up litter, Sweet says, but poultry
raiserS seldom need be concerned
about providing them.
If litter gets too wet, it's prob
ably because of over crowding,
liter too new or too shallow,
faulty housing, leaky waterers, or
weather conditions, Under very
wet conditions lime can be added
to promote dryness. Sweet cau-
tions that too much lime will
make litter too dry.
Excess moisture in new litter
can be remedied by adding more
litter 1t should be started at
least four to six inches deep. New
is added nutil depth of eight to
twelve inches is reached. No lit
ter should be removed before
that.
Six to eight inches of built-up

Gas 60. Plans
.Employe Benefits

Management of The Ohio Fuel
Gas Company today announced
cash allowance and other new
benefits for employees entering
the armed services.
In addition to the regular bene-
fits established by custom and
law, The Gas Company now
gives half months pay, provides
life insurance for 80 days, and
continues hospital and surgical
benefits free of cost for 80 months
to all dependents of the men en-
tering service.
w. NJ Grinstead, vice president
and general manager, explained
that "the cash allowance of a
half months pay is intended to
aid the employee in the trans
ition from civilian to military
life.
"The extension of group life
insurance will afford the en-
ployee sufficient time to take adj
vantage of government insur-
ance which is available at very
low cost.

Chick Connibolisrn
Controls Outlined
BY Extension Aide

Chickens seen to have Jekyll-
Hyde personalities in their ten
dencies to start or stop cannibal-
ism implies Mahlon c. Sweet, ex-
tension poultryman at Ohio State
University.
Sometimes if a chick only a
few days old gets a bloody toe,
other soft, downy little chicks
will practically pick the toe off. "
Sweet outlines two lines of cam
nibalism control. One he calls nu-
tritional prevention and consists
of feeding the most diet possible.
Management is most import
ant control measure, Sweet be-
lieveS. He says it seems. to be a
factor about which the most can
be done. Management to control
cannibalism consists of seven
practices: l. Prevent overcrowd-
ing; g. provide adequate feeders
and waterers; 3. provide devices
to keep birds busy--hang an old
catalog, cabbage head or ham
rind where birds must jump for
it; A. paint window glasses with
red paint; S. use antipick salves;
6. apply mechanical antipick de-
vices, and T. debeak.
The poultry specialists says
debeaking is probably the surest
means of controlling cannibalism.
Pullets should be debeaked when
put in laying house by removing
"a to% of an inch from the upper
beak. If "a of an inch is trimmed
off, then Is inch should be trim
med from the lower beak to keep
if from growing SO fast.
Beak trimming should be done
with a heated knife or iron which
cauterizes and prevents bleeding.

not buy it.
Ellsworth says it works like
this: A count Of bacteria in raw
milk from a producers shipment
is taken. Another count is made
after the milk is pasteurized. The
two counts are compared. If pas
teurization is effective, there will
be very few bacteria in the pas
teurized milk as compared to the
raw milk.
The dairy technologist says if
there aren't fewer bacteria in the
pasteurized sample-"then some
where there is trouble" To get rid
of bacteria remaining after pas
teurization would spoil milk fla
vor. To sell milk containing these
bacteria might mean the plant
would exceed the allowable limit
on bacterial count of bottled
milk.
Dirty utensils are usually, al
though not always, responsible
for a high pasteurized milk
count, There is nothing the milk
plant can do to lower the count
says Ellsworth, therefore tenn
porary shutting off of receipts
from the shipping is apt to re-
suit.
A high pasteurized milk count
can not exist if equipment is
cleaned thoroughly and kept
clean, he adds.

Cleanliness Bio
Dairying Need

Milk plant operators know
when a producer is doing a good
job of washing his equipment
and that knowledge makes a diff
ference in the producers income.
Perry R. Ellsworth, dairy tech
nology extension specialist at
Ohio State University, says the
pasteurization milk count is run
by most large dairies in their
quality control program. If that
count is high in milk, it means
the milk has too many bacteria
that can not be killed be heat. 1t
also means the dairy can not
sell that milk-therefore, will

ALSO it will be a great re-
lief for the employee to know
that his family will have the full
benefit of the hospital and sur

cost while he is away" he said,

plan was retroactive to June 25,

The cook was frightened at
first, then, seeing Pussy comfor-

broom and chased the poor old cat
outdoors.

he came up to the kitchen and a

making more black marks that be-
