feed would have to be trucked
in from Toledo, Cleveland, and
Cincinnati.
Outgoing shipments of grain
are piling up on the sidings at
Milford and in another week the
situation could become very bad.
Scott Mills has been forced to
resort to rationing feed supplies

stock piles are dropping every
day. They are bring some sup
plies in by truck but will be un-
able to keep UP with the demand.
Should the strike continue for
another 10 days the grain bust
ness would suffer greatly, ac-
cording to the manager of the
plant. Extra expense connected
with the make-shift methods of
transporting the material is
tremendous and everyone con-
cerned is suffering from the in

Through tn e ever broadening
medium of television, Union
County continues to gain motor
iety, or publicity, far beyond her
borders.
From H. E. Raynor, a former
Marysville resident now living
in Leominster, Mass, comes a
note in which he tells of seeing
pictures of the collapsed New
Dover bridge on a teleVision
broadcast.
His letter follows:
Dear Editor;
/ will take this brief moment
to let you know that New Dover,
Ohio, got its name into television
here in Massachusetts, a month or
so ago when the old New Dover
bridge over Mill Creek was
wrecked by a truck.
/ had just finished watching
the wrestling matches from Chi
cago. They were late getting
off the air which delayed the
news telecast from WBZ,
Chanel 7, in Boston.
1t was approximately l a. m.
the Sunday after the bridge
wreck, when i was thrilled to
hear the T. v. announcer telling
about the wreck, and in a sec
ond or two after he finished, a
photograph of the wreck, show
ing part of the truck and bridge,
came on my T. v. screen. The
picture was very clear, and show
ed some men looking at the
wreck. Some of them looked like
police officers and road repair
men.
! have no way of knowing the
time of day the picture was TAX
en- but my guess would be some
time in the afternoon. The cam
era used must have been operat-
ed by an expert camerman, per-
haps someone assigned to 7. "
news service, as few amateur
cameramen could get such a clear
picture for television use.
CThe pictures of the New Dover
Bridge wreck were taken by
Gene Smith, of Smitty's Studio
in Marysville.-Ed.)
Perhaps the people of New
Dover know nothing about the
T. v. picture of the bridge being
seen over 900 miles away, but i
proves no matter how large OF
small the towns or cities in Am,
erica, if something happens iT

Rose Sells His
Garage Business

John M. Peterson, for l6
years the owner of one of the
Peterson Pontiac Dealers in
Chicago, has purchased the o. j.
Rose Motors in Marysville, Mr.
Rose, former owner announced

Mr.. Peterson's contract was
approved by the Chrysler Cor
poration and he assumed owner

mouth agency Monday morning.
He plans to move to Marysville
in the near future and make a
permanent home here for his

four and one.
MIR. Rose came to Marysville
in December, 1947, from Os-
born, o. just after he got out of

ness here ever since. He built
the cement block garage at IT'S
E. Fourth st. which now houses
the agency.

Employment in Union, County
is on the upgrade after one of
the worst winters in the his
tory of the local office, Carl F.
Rogers, manager of the local Of
flee stated. today.
The outlook for the future is
good after a slow start this
spring and things should be
booming within a fortnight" E"
Mr.. Rogers added.
Total of SO persons were re-
ferred to jobs during April and
of this group; 60 gained employ
ment. OF these, 18 were in agri-
culture with the majority of the
balance in wholesale and retail
trade and private households.
Two hundred twenty persons
are actively seeking work
through the local office at the
current time, he added. The
average weekly number o f
claimants is 1877, far below the
sum of a few months ago.

Pasture, Meadow Tour Scheduled
This Friday for County Farmers

will be at Ralph Herds farm, two
miles north of Raymond on Route
739, where the group will be able
to see the effect of drainage on a
good stand of clover and alfalfa.
At IL a. M, on Everett Detwil-
er's farm, one mile southwest of
Broadway, the group will COM
pare hay dried by barn drier
versus grass silage in the silo. Mr..
Detwiler has been using a hay
drier for preserving his hay and
also grass silage, for the last
three years. He has also treated
permanent pasture and som e
very fine rotation pasture.
At 1:30 p. m., the group will
stop at DR.. Fred Callaway's farm,
3 miles southwest of MarysVille
and Routes 4 and SO, where his
entire farm has been turned into
pasture and meadows and some
very good stands of ladino clover
in all of his fields.
The next visit, at 2;30 p. m.
will be at Chris Boerger's farm,
where again the group can COM
pare barn drier to preserve hay
with hay silage. Mr.. Boerger has
had veral years experience
with both.
This tour has been set up for
farmers who have questions as to
how to make hay and how to i'm
prove their meadows. Anyone in
terested is invited to accompany
the group at any or all of the
farm stops.

the way here from Cincinnati in
order to get in on the bargains"
he reported.
Another $4,000 chicks hatched
at Colonial today, and were sche-
duled to be sold the same way.
This procedure will continue un-
til the rail strike is settled.
The chicks which were sold at
the Hatchery last Thursday had
been scheduled for shipment to
Michigan, New York, Pennsyl-
vania, Kentucky, West Virginia,
Virginia, Indiana, Massachusetts
and New Jersey.
Scott to be Affected
o. M. Scott & Sons Co. has al
ready noticed the strike effects
in delaying its mail and cutting
off important freight shipments.
I'VE have a lot of stuff hung
up somewhere by the strike right
now," Charles B. Mills, general
manager, said.
"All of our fertilizer ingred-
tents are received by the car
load, and they cannot be trucked
in,' he added. I'VE probably do
not have an adequate supply on
hand unless the strike is settled
quickly and freight shipments
resume"
Much of the Scott Company's
out going shipping has also been
stopped by the strike, since they
can send out only a small por-
ton of their merchandise by
truck.
May Not Get Fertilizer
Even the individual farmer
may be hurt--and seriously-by
the strike.
He will feel it through the lack
of fertilizer for spring planting,
County Agent Frank Greeneisen
said.
Most of the farmers have
their seed all bought, or it is
available to them," the County
Agent said, "but only about half
Of them have their fertilizer
bought. If they wait until they
get ready to plant before they
try to buy it, they may not get
any,"
Having fertilizer on hand at
the right time and the right day
is extremely important espec-
tally the way the weather has
been this spring, Mr.. Greeneisen
added.
Nestles Faces Delimma
Continuation of the rail strike
for another 10 days could force
a shut down of operation in the
Nestles Milk Products Company
here, Dwight Hush, manager of
the local plant said today.
"Unless trucking arrangements
can be made, many of the IT'S
persons employed at the plant
would be the victims of a lay
off forced by lack of transport
alton facilities,'' he stated.
At the present time stocks are
piling up at the plant and it will
be necessary to find additional
storage space. In the case of a
complete shutdown, the farm
ers would be forced to keep their
milk on the farm and plant work
ers and milk haulers would be
idle.
'If the strike should contin-
ue for three or four weeks we
would be out of coal and would
shut down regardless of the
transportation situation Mr.. Hush
stated.
Feed Companies Hit Hard
The Ohio Grain Company is
also feeling the affect of the
strike, and a weeks continue
ton would force heavy truck

Here's a fish story about Union
County which comes from Mar
ion by the way of the Marion
Star. It was written by George
Scott, sports editor of the Star,
in his column, SCOTS Sport
scope.
A Fish Story. But it's true. l
know because l was along when
it happened.
Four of us arose at the weird
hour of 4 a. m. Saturday and at
daybreak we were fishing on
Boxes Creek in Union County. For
an hour and a half we tossed
worms into the water with only
an occasional nibble. Not even a
good bite.
Ond then something took the
line of Bob Slater, a member of
the advertising staff of The Star.
When he got it out. he ex-
claimed. That's the biggest
crappie I've ever seen"
But the others in the party
thought it was a bass. 1t seemed
too big for crappie.
Which was it--a crappie or a
bass? 1t made big difference
for the season is closed right now
on bass.
Maintaining he was right, Bob
brought it back to Marion. Local
experts agreed it was a crappie
all right. The rest of us hadn't
been as sure as Bob-it was good
news. The fine for keeping bass
out of season is $25.
The crappie weighed one
pound. IL ounces and measured
II inches. It's the biggest one
caught around here this year.
according to Don Hinton who
sponsors a fishing contest every
season for Marion anglers.
The largest ever to be taken
around here won the Hinton con-
test last year in the crappie
contest. 1t weighed two pounds
and one ounce and was brought
in by Gene Haynes.
Slatzer's crappie was one of
two taken by the party of four.
He also caught the other one--a
pint-sized bluegill.

Fashion
Notes

Charles James, famous Ameri-
can designer. whose designs are
being shown today at the Wom-
ems National Press Clubs lunch
eon-fashion show revealed that
this showing is actually preview
of 20-year anniversary show
being scheduled soon for New
York.
This designer whose clothes are
worn by some of the worlds most
chic women feels strongly on the
issue of figures.
He has designed a dress form
dictated by his needs which is
used in the industrial division of
the Brooklyn Museum. This form
is sleek developed form nearer
body shape and designed in a
series of hollows and not bumps.
He defines the American form as
average ideal" larger" and
smaller" And in designing for
smaller women a designer. he
thinks, should not concentrate in
pulling them in but in releasing
line so that they, too, can have
proper silhouette proportions. And
a waistline, most assuredly, says
Mr.. James. is not just a string
around the waist.
Mr.. James claims that fashion
is only an entirely new way of
look normal. People should buy
clothes to correct and not to
establish their faults. He thinks
that American manufacturers
could help more than they do be-
cause taste today in America is
strongly linked and is a reflection
of the dress industry.
He feels that it does them no
good to go to Europe and come
home to attempt a duplication
of a new silhouette when they
put it right on old-fashioned
dress forms and make it up with
patterns that conform to same
methods of production.
And another thing American
women can do to elevate the taste
level of themselves is to remem-

This is very evident here in
Washington, where so many
women work not only in pri-
vate business but in the Gov
ernment.
Just take a look around you
on the bus, the streetcar, or
just while walking down a
Washington street. At $50
am. you'll be able to spot any
number of women going to
work dressed as they would be
for a cocktail engagement.
The fashion fact that there
should be a quiet look of chic
to any costume worn in an Of
flee has never been learned.
Dressing we'll is an art. But
knowing the fundamentals of
fashion and applying them is
more than an art, it is also
smart.
Evening star., 1950-09-27

To some fashion only means
dressing up" To others it is
q whole philosophy. A way of
expressing themselves via
clothing in a clear and dis
tinct way.
Many miss the boat where
fashion is concerned because
they are too preoccupied with
big things and not enough with
little things that can add up
to a more complete and or
ganized fashion outlook for
themselves.
One of the cardinal sins
committed by women in the
wearing of clothes, is that they
very often don't wear the right
clothes at the right time.
