over TO me and rolled up her
sleeves, and l said, Oh no, no,
please, no.
Mr.. Lila said 5000! ?&*?."
She said the same thing, so l
guess it was all right.
So I stretched out on a bench
and this woman started graphing
with me. How she banged away.
She pounded her fists into my
backbone, short snappy blows. She
rolled me over, flopped out my
legs, stretched joint or two
knocked out a few chinks, and
tickled me around the waistline
l never laughed so hard in my life.
Leave it to the women: they know
how to pick out the funnybones.
Next she moved my arms, cur
iously, up and down, back and
forth, and then she pressed them
way back, said pub, and then
heard a bone snap. She looked
at me enthusiastically nodded and
smiled generously. She did it over
again and nodded and smiled.
couldn't imagine why she smiled
like that. Maybe, l thought rue
fully, maybe she's having trouble
with her husband and is taking it
out on me. Poor guy. Ouch.
Well, that was over with and
we retired to our dressing room.
We stretched out on our beds,
rested, smoked and drank soda
pop. Mr. Lila talked very much.
l believe it was about the glory
of the sauna. He had a curious
way of talking to me indefinitely
as though l understood every
word. Sometimes he'd smile and I'd
smile too. Or he'd shake his head
solemnly while talking and I'd
shake mine. too. BY watching his
expression I was able to catch
the cues so that when he looked
at me l could reciprocate with
similar condescending expression.
This helped to build up our friend
ship.
Then we dressed and walked
out into the hallway and sure
enough there was that woman
again. l said, well lady, you
sure did a fine job She said,
go $40 ~" Then she burst out
laughing. So did Mr.. Lila. So
did I. That was just about the best
joke I've ever heard - if it was
one-and still l didn't understand
a word of it.
On the way home l asked Mr..
Lila what she said that was so
funny, after piecing together
few words in my dictionary. This
gave him more to talk about and
he kept it up for about eight
blocks. Somehow we were in per-
feet agreement just by nodding,
smiling. gesticulating at each 9TH
err. 1t gave me the idea that peo-
Pile can understand one another
without understanding each 9TH
ers language. That means some
thing in this world, too, don't you
think

and both production per bird and
quality of eggs is dropping.
Hot weather also will lower the
proportion of fine eggs. Combined
holdings of shell and frozen eggs in
storage at the summer peak probably
will be no larger than last year.
In May dozen of eggs at farm prices
would pay for only 81 pounds of
poultry ration. That was third low.
est for the month in 90 years of rec
ord. In the past, low May ratio has
been followed by much more prof
liable ratio a year later.
POTATOES-Prices probably will
decline sharply in the near future
from the extremely high level
reached following the removal of
ceilings. It will take little while
to fill up distribution pipelines, but
the potato harvest would normally
increase in the next few weeks and
high prices will stimulate early dig
ging. Garden-grown potatoes will
tend to cut down retail demand.

Sprinkler System Saves
Livestock Business

The water is taken from a spring
fed creek section that has live water
in it all year around. A 4-inch pump
operating at 500 gallons per minute
furnishes the pressure and lifts the
water or feet up into the $50
foot-long main line of the sprinkler
system. The main line is 6-inch
aluminium pipe and the sprinkler
line is 5 inches in diameter. He has
1860 feet of sprinkler line with a
revolving sprinkler head spaced in
every other of the 3O-foot-long sec
tions.
The SIS acres Of alfalfa bronze grass
hayland can be irrigated in Z days
time, he says. And in one case, Ira
week remembers that it was just II
days from the end of the sprinkling
until the hay was knee high and
ready to cut.
The 40 hip. gasoline motor used to
power the pump operates on about
IL gallons of gasoline per hour.
Traweek pointed out that the en-
tire unit was engineered to fit his
situation and that this engineering is
the most important thing about pur-
chasing sprinkler unit. In addition
to the commercial sprinkler engi-
neers who sold him the unit, Ira
week had engineering help from
Harold Dusenberry, extension ir-
rigation specialist; Gene Hoff, county
agent, and William Shelley of soil
conservation service.

"OUR SPRINKLER irrigation sys-
tenn has meant the difference be-
tween staying in or selling out our
livestock business" said Dick Ira
week, Fallon county. 1--WE had IA
extra good grass years in the last IL
but having lived in this country for
48 years, knew it couldn't last for
ever. In the last few years we
haven't had any wild hay for winter
feeding"
So just few years ago, Traweek
invested So, 400 in sprinkler system
that he is now using on SIS acres of
alfalfa-brome grass hay. He is also
planning on Is to 20 acres of ir-
rigated pasture that will also be IN
der the sprinkler system. The hay
produced is insurance for easy win
tering of his 50-head COW herd. The
irrigated pasture will be used to sup
ply feed for yearling heifers and
steers in the spring, if it works out
satisfactorily.
The hay land is within " mile of
the ranch buildings so it is taken
directly from the field by hydraulic
buck rake and put into the corrals.
This makes much cheaper and
more efficient operation than going
all over the country cutting wild
hay even when it is available, Ira
week pointed out. If the irrigated
pastures work out as hoped, he will
run yearling heifers over and not
breed them until they are 2-year-
olds. He may also run steers calves
over another year before sale.

prices are held in check by the cell
ing. But, both carryover and new
crop of flaxseed are likely to be
lighter next season.
DAIRY PRoDUcTs-Prices prob
ably will be steady in the near flu
ture, then work moderately higher
in late summer and fall. The milk
flow is rounding the peak. It usually
declines about one-third from June
to November. Since fluid milk and
cream consumption is fairly con-
slant, output of manufactured dairy
products drops about one-half from
the June peak to the late fall low
point.
EGGS-Average prices to farmers
probably will rise 10 to IL cents a
dozen in the next three or four
months. Production will decline Is
to 80 percent in this period. While
low prices for hens have discouraged
culling, feeding of some flocks is
being neglected due to poor returns

Dudley Observation
Post Progressing

Operation SkyWatch Is con-

Dudley observation post but like
every other civilian defense post
in Ohio, they still need more
volunteers.
Chief observer Nan Brown
said today that the response for
volunteers has been very good
but they still need people to
work on the two shifts from mid
night to 800 a. m.
Mrs. Brown also wishes to
thank all who have given of their
time on this project, which con-
tinues indefinitely.
Any new volunteers should

Caldwell Band
Continued from page one)

An entirely new show has been
prepared for the coming football
season, according to Mr.. Wood.
The following typical camp
schedule should lead one to un-
derstand why the Caldwell high
school band receives and de-
serves such wide acclaim.
Everybody rolls out of their
bunk at 1880 a. M, are allowed
Is minutes to dress and at 7:45,
begin a Is minute drill before
breakfast. The morning meal is
served in the home economics
room of the high school at 800
o'clock.
After breakfast the kids rest
until 9 o'clock, when they start
their main drilling period, wind
ing it up at 1870. They have
lunch at noon and shorter drills,
periodically, throughout the
afternoon. Most of the band
members have acquired an en-
viable suntan the past week with
so many hours in the sun every
day.
Parts of the evening session
have been given over to re-
hearsal for the Saturday night
concerts, mostly for the bene-
fit of the 10 new members at
camp this summer. In the last
two years, 20 new members have
been added to the organization,
which makes up more than half
the number of the 36 piece band
For the first time this year,
several of the aspiring beginners,
not yet actual members, are at
camp, as observers.
The director has found camp
at the high school gymnasium
and athletic field more convent
ent than at the fairgrounds,
where it was formerly held. In
the event of rain, while at the
fairgrounds, all practice stopped.
Now, drills can go in the gym
nasium.
The band mothers, who are the
cooks for the week, have diff
ferent group to prepare the
meals every day. The ladies
were also of the opinion that the
present site is more convenient,
with the modern home &c kitchen
at their disposal, and the dining
room adjoining the kitchen.
Another advantage of the pre-
sent set-up is the convenient use
of the athletic field for march
ing practice.
Wesley Marshall, who writes
the column Musings" for this
paper, is spending his last year
at band camp this year. His
column will not appear this
week for that reason. He is a
drummer with the marcheteers.
There are five seniors attend
ing band camp, preparing for
their last season..

Applicants Listed

ApplCdntS LISLeu
Four applications were read by
the Clerk Violet Morgareidge re-
questing the position as parking
meter officer. They were Jack
Oliver, John Christopher, Ben
King and J. o. Mcdonald. No
action was taken by council on
the appointment.
Village council authorized the
purchase of a new motorcycle
for use by the village police de-
partment. This purchase has been
under consideration for a period
of months and during the past
week the transaction was COM
pleted. 1t is expected the new
piece of equipment will be put
to use not any later than Friday
of this week.
A factor in deciding on this
particular piece of equipment
was its maintenance. At the pre-
sent time council is supplying the
gas for the privately-oWned
jeep of Marshal Davis while on
tour of duty within the village.
1t is understood the newly pur-
chased piece of equipment is
complete and very modern. 1t is
similar in detail to the three
wheeled motor cycles used IN
many of the larger towns and
villages.
Other Matters of Business
John Hawkins, district rep
resentative for the Ohio Power
Co., of Cambridge, was present
at the meeting in the interest of
advising council that the Ohio
Power Co. was establishing a
resident service man for the
area.
Howard Kress, of North street,
asked council to move utility
pole located on his property
which is preventing free access
to his garage. Council approved
the request and authorized the
mayor to notify the village main
tenance crew to move the OBJ
struction.
Clerk Violet Morgareidge read
the monthly bills which were
approved for payment.
Councilmen present were
President D. D. Nichols, James
johnson, Dwight F. Wiley, Emil
Barnett, Dean Reed and Carl
Johnson.

Coal Output
Continued from page one)

This, he said, did not scratch
the surface. With most modern
mining methods available, it
would take ten thousand men
600 years to exhaust the districts
recoverable coal. And with new
techniques being devised, he esti-
mated that it will eventually be
possible to recover more than 43
percent that can now be mined.
Secrest pointed out that Is bill
lion tons are to be found in the
three counties along the Mus
kingum river. He predicted that,
when this source of coal is tap
ped in earnest, there will be am
pie justification for deepening
the channel of the river and mod
ernizing its system of locks and
dams.
Speaking of southeastern
Ohio's prospects for industrial de-
velopment, he said that Union
Carbide company located its vast
factory at Marietta largely be-
cause of the proximity of rich
coal fields. That company has al
ready bought one-twentieth of
the land in Noble county and es-
timated some time ago, that it
had acquired a coal supply am
pie to its needs for more than
hundred years.
Secrest also said that the coal
producing counties of Noble and
Guernsey yielded only 500 mil
lion tons in go years of constant
mining. Yet it is found that the
county of Noble still possess al
most three billion tons.
BY counties, the unmined coal
is estimated as follows:
Morgan, 6,669,000,000; Muskin-
, gum, 4,836,000,000; Guernsey,
4,687, 100000; Washington, 3,345,-
100000; Noble 2,926,O 100000; Mon
roe, 2,913,000,O00; Perry, 1885,
100000.
These figures are part of ma
tion-wide surveys by F. r. Clark
and j. A. Bownocker, two recog-
nized authorities on the subject
who made a complete investiga-
ton of coal fields in the United
States. All figures were re-check-
ed and certified by the State de-
partment of natural resources.

need for a growing community
to locate flying field with
the thought in mind that the
future would see a definite trend
in the use of flying for both
private trips, commercial or
agricultural purposes.
The council favorably received
the proposition and authorized
Blake and Ramsey to proceed
with the development of the
area, particularly with the level
ing of the area and other matters
pertinent to establishing an air
field for landing purposes for
local flyers.
1t was noted that number of
county eX-servicemen, who
formerly served in the air force,
are showing a keen interest in
this development, and it is con-
ceivable the first initial concrete
move for such community inn
provement is now moving with
the assurance the idea will be a
reality.
