Hardin has a nice golf course
to play on, according to Carl
Rankin, local golf enthusiast,
but some golfers are never en-
tirely free of a feeling of un-
easinesS brought about by the
possibility of being bitten by a
rattleSnake, since one is occaS-
ionally found on the course.
However, Mr.. Rankin believes
local golfers are comparatively
safe in comparison to fans in
the Philippines.
In a letter from his son, Col.
C. E. Rankin, who is with the
air corp in the Philippines,
golfing on the island is describ-
ed. -
The base has an 18-hole golf
course and a short time ago
while Col. Rankin and other Of
ficers were playing, they found
an 11-foot python on one of
the fairways. The colonel also
plays golf at the noted summer
resort of Baugio, which is
north of Manila. The course is
called the ."Billy Goat" course
for the reason that fairWayS
are over a series of hills. The
fairWays are cut out of the
Jungle and the Colonel reports
that when one drives a ball out
into the rough tthe jungle) he
never thinks of going after the
ball because cobraS are at home
in the Jungle.
Personally, we'd take the rat

RippHng
of the Rivers

Dorothy Johnston of White
Sulphur Springs has submitted
an entry in the contest recent
ly announced by Mr.. and Mrs.
Gerald Williams of the Battle
field Souvenir Shop, Crow Ag-
ency, in which they offered a
prize of S. to the person Sug-
costing the most appropriate
name for the cattalo which
they are rearing at the Sou
venir Shop.
In the letter to this reporter,
the contestant suggests the
name of "Goofus" for the
Young cattalo, and losses in,
free, a little jab concerning our
intelligence quotient.
The letter follows:
"a subscriber to the Meagher
County News, I have just read
your contribution to Across the
Desk" and would like to make
a suggestion re: the naming of
the lady mentioned in the ar
ticle.
1T is a trifle difficult to Or
iginate a cognomen suitable for
one whose male parent rejoiees
in the name of 'GoofyS. How
ever, it would appear pertin-
ent to acknowledge the family
association and I can think of
nothing more appropriate than
'GoofuS'.
In the event that the Har-
din Tribune be as lamentably
ignorant on the subject of mus
ic as they would seem to be on
cattle breeding, I will explain
that the above title is the name
of an immortal ditty which is
described by experts as a caco-
phony (see definition Page 122
Lippincott), of outrageous har-
mony supposed to be a tune
but resembling nothing on
earth ever before composed"

Another outbreak of devil
ment and destruction by young
Sters of the city has been re-
ported by the police depart
The current wave features
the old standby of debating
tires en- masSe, in addition to
destruction of gardens, shoot
ing out lights, etc., etc.
The police department is
again asking for cooperation of
parents in quelling the out
break. This reporter again
agrees that parents can do
more than anyone else to fme
prove the situation, since those
involved would seem to range
in age from about 10 to 20
years.
We have heard it said by a
number of citizens that the de-
struction caused by pranksters
is the fault of the citizens as
a whole, because the city does
MT offer enough diversions for
young people to keep them out
of mischief. We can't go along
with that school of thought at
all.
1t is our opinion that it is
not the responsibility of society
to keep youngsters pacified or
to teach them right from
wrong. That responsibility be-
longs in the home - with Soc
iety lending a helping hand
wherever possible or in cases
where the need arises. Placing
the responsibility on society
seems to us a purely SocialiStic
approach to the problem, not in
keeping with a philosophy of
life founded on individual free
dom.
The statement that a young
ster destroyed someone else's
property simply because he
didn't have anything else to do
doesn't make much sense in our
h00k

what; it takes in land, pasture,

around II to IS thousand head
Of hogs in Holmes county. This
is more meat animal units than
we have ever had before. Live
stock numbers are increasing
faster than the supply of grass,
hay and farm grain. This can
become a serious problem with
cattle producers unless we plan
better feed program. The in
crease in cattle and hogs have
been mostly made by new pro-
ducers. Many of these new men
have not learned what it means
to have adequate feed nor do
they realize the necessity of
everyday management of live
stock. The situation is serious.
Every livestock producer should
plan now to correct this situa-
ton. A lot of livestock dollars
are being spent to purchase bas-
ic feed that should be grown by
the producer. When this hap

Bio Buy

That familiar phrase, the big
economy package can lead to
waste rather than thrift in food
buying, family food economists
Of the r. S. Department of Ag-
riculture say. The economical
quantity to buy depends on the
size of the family. on how much
and how oftsn the particular food
is served -. and also on refrigera-
tor and cupboard space for good
keeping.
Overbuying OF perishable foods
often has been reported as a
Common cause OF food waste at
home. Many foods in cans, jars,
bottles and other containers be-
come perishables, once they are
opened, because then they need
refrigeration and prompt use not
only to prevent spoiiage ard loss
of food value but also to b,s ap-
petizing. Then the thrifty buy
is the amount that will be used
within a. Few days.
To illustrate: a tau can of /.
Juice, costing few pennies less
than the same quantity of juice
in two or shree small cans, is anl
economy buy for the family that.
will use it in day or two. But
il NAV be a poor buy for fam
lily Of twoa They may tire OIL
it before they are able to finish
1t - and in the meantime it
may be an inconvenience in a
small refrigerator, may lose
quality on long standing and in
the end be thrown away.
Another point worth consider
ing before buying large sze is !
whether il actually is cheaper. |
Read labels carefully to learn the
quantity different sizes coItain. [
Then check to be sure the Large I
size gives more in weight or |
measure for the price thar the :
smaller sizes.
Buying in quantity sometimes
leads to using more than reces-
sary. In an expensive item es-
pecially, it's money lost if the
food is used carelessly JUST be-
cause there IS a lot on hanG.
