homestretch and ahead-just little
more than two weeks-the annual
back-to-school movement with Armin
Hauenstein and others checking up
on their supplies of books and all the
tools of education. Those fancy
pencil boxes, complete with pen and
pen points, pencils of every hue, a
compass for drawing circles and shiny
new rulers with brass or plastic
straightedge, still hold fascination
for us. We like to smell gum erasers
and still cannot refrain from taking
a little nibble whenever we're alone
with one. Do they still include in
modern pencil boxes, the folding
aluminium drinking cup? Even in our
own school days they seemed to be
an unnecessary appurtanence, but
sometimes they did double as bank
for saving pennies for licorice strips.
And whatever became of Gcorice
strips-the fiat wide strips that look
ed a little like a strip off a rubber
stair mat embellished with drops of
vari-colored sugar coatings?
And August's end in sight bringing
to a close the summer vacation trips
of Blufftonites to all parts of the
country still time for early
autumn trips to the hill country to
feast on the colors of natures final
fling before foliage dies and somber
winter arrives. 1t would be interest
ing to know how many miles Bluffton
residents travelled this summer on
holiday trips, old friends they saw
and new acquaintance made. Have
you seen one of the new road maps
just released by the State Highway
Department and the very interesting
comparison with the map on the back
prepared about the time Ohio became
a state? Better than anything we
know, those two maps at glance
show the changes wrought in only
$50 years. What will an Ohio map
look like in another 100 years?
SOME FOLKS have knack of
getting in the last word and,
handy with the quick comeback,
never seem ruffled when they be-
come the butt of chiding. When
the boys in the barber shop
jumped on Tuffy Swank last
Saturday and Charlie Lloyd re-
called the time Tuffy put sign
in the shop window, "Closed To
Attend A Funeral" and then
didn't return for three days, Tuf-
fly explained it all with: "Well,
my friend wasn't as sick as l
thought he was" h.
And thinking of barber shops
recalls the reioinder of the fellow
who was being called on the car
pet for knocking off work to get
haircut on "the boss's time"
"Well," he explained, 'it grew on
the boss's time, didn't it?"
BEFORE DIR. TRAVIS LEFT last
week on his two-week vacation trip
to Clear Lake, Ind, many of his
patients inquired whether he was tax
ing his fshin' tackle along. Doc said
that he didn't care whether the fish
were biting at Clear Lake or not. He
knew they wouldn't be biting fast
enough to interest him. It's the long
waits between bites that makes the
sport uninteresting, he says, so he
packed golf clubs instead of fishing
tackle. We suppose the longer the
waits between shots-or at least the
longer the walk between drives and
approach shots-the better Doc will
like it in that sport.

brought home four first prize rib
bons from the local Bluffton
Flower Show, and last week when
Kermit Herr asked Schiffke to al
low him to take up a few of his
best gladiOli to the Northwestern
Ohio Glad Show at Waterville,
Ben cut off three nice spikes and
gave them to Kermit to enter for
him.
Because two of the spikes wilt
ed overnight, Kermit entered only
one at the Waterville show. You
guessed it, the single spike won
q first prize. 1t was an orange
variety of the Mazda Glad. Un-
usual feature of the incident is
that this is the first year Schiffke
has ever entered any of his flow

was competing in the open class
including many professional

harmful insects, and in itself causes
mankind no trouble. If we were an

Which Standard for Cattle

progeny testing, which places emphasis on
weight, is the best answer.
Different range men want different
kinds of cattle. So do the feeders and be
these demands dictated by design or by
fancy, it matters not. Every morning the
dispatcher of large packing plant sends
out his orders to his buyers to buy perhaps
a dozen different classes of cattle. For he
must have meat in his coolers to satisfy
Madam Housewife and Mr.. Chef. Neither
the research man nor the beef producer
is going to tell either of these ultimate
buyers what kind and size roast he or she
needs for dinner tonight.
There are demonstrated dangers of fol-
lowing past show ring standards too far.

dent, Montana Stockgro1Uers association
of the state for good grass crop and large
hay crop.
In contrast to many ideas of the associa-
tons there have been individual suggestions
stressing the need of price supports, etc. We
who are being blessed with rainfall should
not interfere with the requests of those who
unfortunately live in this years drought
area. We should not forget the dry years of
the early 30's, and the low prices of that
time. There likely is no other way for some
of the stockmen and the farmers of the
drought areas to exist. Flexible controls
would give the Secretary of Agriculture the
power to help such conditions.
But where nature has made it possible
to raise grass, hay and grain livestock peo-
pie should need no help from the federal
government. We have been spoiled by the
continuance of many relief programs after
there was no longer need for them, and we
are paying for them in high taxes today.
We could better ask for tax "relief" when
nature, the market and the high cost of op-
Grafton make it impossible to break even,
and perhaps after previous years when
taxes took too much of the income
The stockman who owns good cow herd
and good ranch in Montana, and who lives
with his outfit, will likely survive this crisis

Beef Has a Story to Tell

also-and has been telling it often and well.
AS these competitors entice customers away
from beef, producers are going to find it
harder than ever to swing them back.
But the beef industry is not busted; it
has no overpowering and absolutely i'm
possible situations to meet. Right now,
with just two or three pounds more con-
sumption per capita, the nation could eat
the industry out of its surplus in COM
paratively short time.
The American Meat Institute is and has
been doing a good job of selling all kinds
of meat. Meat markets and grocery stores
have made definite efforts which have re-
suited in accelerated meat sales. But no one
has been telling the simple, unadulterated
story of beef alone.

highly specialized package" are just some
of the reported pitfalls.
There are also many reported disad-
vantages when too much emphasis is placed
on a weight only" standard. They include
weight in the wrong places cows that milk
too heavily with resulting calf scours and
spoiled udders near complete loss of eye
appeal Out this is transitory) and perhaps
an ultimate trend toward less flavorful
meat.
The show ring, its critics notwith-
standing, has stood the test of long hard
pull. But the progeny testing of beef and
many other classes of livestock has proven
itself to be of real value beyond shadow
of a doubt
The breeder of purebred beef cattle who
takes the good points from both methods,
who uses the double standard insofar as
he is able, will probably come out pretty
well in the long run.
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1953-08-01

IF the breeder of purebred livestock knew
Il exactly where he was going, if he knew
just how to produce the perfect beef animal
then he would no doubt have done SO long
ago and could now be spending his winters
in more temperate climates.
And if the research men who are trying
to tell the purebred men how to do it :.
well, they could also be spending their
winters on sunny sands.
incidentally the livestock editors and
writers we know of seem to be sticking
pretty close to home, too.
To the outsider this purebred beef pro-
duction game must look little confusing.
Should he talk to one group they'll tell him
the show ring is the standard toward which
all the faithful should set their sails. But
across the way another group will say that

Guest Editorial by G. K. MILBURN, Pre-
BECAUSE of the continued critically low
- prices for cattle, the drought conditions
in many states of the southwestern region,
the resulting disaster to the stockmen in
those areas, and the relationship of farm
products to the livestock industry, there is
much concern throughout the country as to
what should be done and how and when it
could be done
At the annual convention of the Montana
Stockgrowers Association in Missoula last
May, 300 members in attendance made
sound suggestions through their resolutions
as to ways to help improve the present sit
uation and achieve better balance in the
industry in the future. Their ideas are sim
liar to those of many other stockmerl of the
west as shown by their action at their con-
ventions the last few months.
Resolutions called for control of cattle
numbers by marketing of cows, opposition
to price supports on cattle and criticism of
price supports on farm products, promotion
of beef sales both to the civil population and
military forces, reduction of meat costs to
the consumer to a price more in line with
the price of live CATTLE and suggestions as
to aid for the drought stricken areas Luclzi-
ly Montana has had ample rainfall in most

A PPARENTLY even Simple Simon's pie
a man had flair for advertising and
promotion. At any event he created in the
mind of his customer land he a poor man
at that) the desire to eat his product.
It's been quite a few years since meat
producers were out on the road hawking
their wares. But today the producer of beef
cattle has an annual volume of something
like 35 million head of cattle to sell. To
hold his production in line with demand
perhaps about 38 million head should be
slaughtered for a while.
Beef is a highly nutritious, extremely
palatable food Under most conditions it
has sold itself to the consumer on its own
merits. But competition has story to tell

as he has done many times before. AS to
selling cows to reduce cattle numbers in
the future, he will use his own good judg-
ment as to how this would affect his opera
ton in years to come. Perhaps this general
rule as proposed will not fit his case, but
it will fit into the picture of the man who
jumped into the cow business when prices
were high and land too high to buy, and
operated on rented pasture and very little
winter feed to get rich in game he did not
know. 1t is possible that the conditions of
today will eliminate many of the surplus
cattle. And it won't hurt to let this good
grass rest bit and the hay pile up for an
other year.
