Businessmen Fly
 Almost As Much As Domestic Airlines

Businessmen, seeking saving in time and money, last year flew in their 11,000 corporation-owned aircraft, almost as many plane miles as the entire fleet of the scheduled domestic airlines.
 This information is contained in an article in the current issue of PLANES, official publication of the Aircraft Industries Assn.
 In 1852, corporate aircraft own CTS in this country logged well over 422 million plane-miles. This compares with the 457 million plane-miles flown during the same period by the scheduled domestic airlineS.
 While running up these aston ishing figures, corporation air. craft flew some 3.25 million hours equivalent to an individual fly ing day and night for over 370 years.
 These aircraft range from small single-engine planes to the newest and largest air transports, that are equipped with the most modern instruments and electroric aids available. They represent a total investment of about SITS million, an expenditure of from 30 to 50 million dollars annually for planes parts and equipment-and an es- timated additional million dollars annually for fuel, oil and main tenance.
 Despite the inflated dollar, pur- chasers of today'S planes actually get more for their money than those who bought their pre-World War II counterparts. One typical four place business plane now sells for about $13,000. A pre- World War II four placer-which flew far slower, was less com fortable and less reliable - sold for just about the same price.
 Measured in terms of pre-World War II dollars, the modern four placer is priced at less than $7,000.

Prime Muskrat
Puzzles Division

Columbus-The Ohio Division
of Wildlife is currently conduct
ing a statewide survey of fur
dealers and members of the Ohio
Trappers Association in an at
tempt to determine as near as
possible the earliest date for
primeness in fur, particularly
muskrat.
The survey follows the receipt
of many inquiries to the Division
from fur dealers and trappers fol-
lowing the state game hearing and
the July Ohio Wildlife Council
meeting at which the opening
date of the 1953-54 trapping sea-
son was set for November Is.
It was pointed out that last
year trappers received compara-
lively low prices for furs, par
ticularly muskrat, and dealers
were unable to move muskrat furs
due to unprimeness. It is hoped
that the recommendations of the
fur dealers and the trappers will
aid in establishing an opening
date which will find muskrat furs
in prime shape.

Don't Neglect
Pics In Summer

Hot weather and tight truck beds
are death on hogs.
Glenn r. German of Ohio's Live
stock Loss Prevention committee,
reports that a midwestern market
received five times as many dead
hogs during a day of 90-degree
temperatures as they received
when the thermometer read so. A
spot check of trucks during the
high temperatures also revealed
that 10 of every Is trucks had
tight grain beds.
The loss prevention group urges
ventilated trucks for hauling live
stock to market in hot weather and
loading and shipping in early
morning or in the evening.
Cutting down on feed before ship
ping; slow, quiet loading and using
canvass slappers instead of objects
more likely to bruise animals will
aid safe delivery to market.
German adds that overlooking
may cost more in dead animals
than it will save in hauling costs

Ohio Ranks Fifth
As Fur Producer

Columbus-Accordihg to a re.
port issued recently by the U. S.
Fish and Wildlife Service. the
state of Ohio ranked fifth in the
United States in the taking of
fur-bearing animals during the
1950-51 season.
Louisiana ranks first, according
to the report, with a total of l.
299, ,482 furs being taken. Mime
sofa and Michigan followed with
LIPS, ,146 and 929, ,089 respectively,
with Illinois danking fourth with
1872, 1872. Ohio was listed fifth
with total of 688, ,492 furs being
taken during the season.
The report points out, however,
that the figures are based on an
nual reports of fur dealers only
and does not include furs shipped
out of state.
The Ohio ranking is particularly
outstanding when consideration is
given to the fact that the state
ranks 34th in total area, and 47th
in water area per fisherman. Add
to this the fact that the state is
intensively farmed and the high
take of furs indicates that the
state is still very high producer
of furbearing animals.

Wheat Quota Vote
Is Important

The vote on wheat marketing
quotas Friday will be as impor-
tant as an election of public Off
cials says Mervin G. Smith, Ohio
agriculture economist.
eff our programs are to be run
democratically," he says, people
must exercise their right to help
determine those programs.
Smith, who is chairman of the
agriculture economics department
at Ohio State University and the
Ohio Agriculture Experiment Sta
ton, urges every farmer who plans
to produce more than Is acres oi
wheat to vote Friday He says
every eligible farmer has the duty
to voice his opinion, for or against
by voting.
He points out that the vote prob
ably will effect international anC
national economics as well as per
sOnal farm plans. There will be
long-run affects as we'll as short
range changes.
The economist urges wheat-quo
ia voters to consider such thing.

Wheat Acreage
Puzzle Clarified

There has been some misunder-
standing concerning the applica.
ton of marketing quotas on small
farms. The marketing quota level
on any farm is the production on
Is acres provided the farm does
not plant more than Is acres. If
the farm plants more than Is
acres, then the marketing quota
level is the allotment and any
acreage produced above the allot-
ment is classified as excess wheat.
Any farmer can plant up to Is
acres wheat without penalty. If he
exceeds his allotment and plants
up to Is acres he must sell all the
wheat on the open market, and is
, not entitled to loan or Purchase
Agreement. If he plants over Is
acres and his allotment is less
than Is acres he is penalized for
the difference between his allot.
ment and the number of acres
planted.
This important Qualification of
marketing quota comes direct from
Otto A. Kersten, chairman of Of
tawa County Production and
Marketing Administration.

Suggests Barley
AS Winter Grain

Ohio farmers may SOW barley
instead of wheat as winter grain,
says George R. Gist, extension
agronomist at Ohio State Univer-
sity.
Wheat growers may want a diff
ferent crop if marketing quotas
are voted in on August Ia. Be-
cause of its dense growth, barley
makes better winter cover crop
than wheat or rye.
This dense growth and tenden-
cy to lodge, however, keep barley
inferior to wheat or oats as COM
panion crop for meadow seedlings.
GiSt points out that grazing or clip
ping barley improves meadow
seedlings.
AS a feed grain, barley is SINH
lar to corn. One hundred pounds
of barley are about equal to 80
pounds of corn. Barley yields up to
60 bushels an acre in Ohio.
Another specialist, L. E. Folsom,
an extension economist, says
wheat usually brings higher reurns
! per acre. In 1949, barley returned
$37 an acre. Each acre of wheat
returned $44.85.
Gist says barley must be sown
about 10 days before the fly-free
date for wheat. This is too early
in many cases since most of Ohio's
wheat follows corn in rotation Bar
ley may be sown where corn is har-
vested as silage or cut early and
shocked.
The agronomist suggests Kenbar
and Ohio No. 1. These varieties
are more winter hardy than older
ones. Winter-killing is seldom a
serious problem when the two
varieties are grown with good
practices.
Rate of seeding is 2 bushels Of
barley an acre. Gist suggests that
farmers order seed early. Seed Of
ten is in short supply.
County extension offices have
more information on barley pro-
ducti0n.
| Neglecting pigs during summer
may delay maketing in the fall
says Herbert M. Barnes, extension
swine specialist at Ohio State Uni
versity.
Barnes lists a five-point, "hot
weather" program to help Ohio
swine growers prepare spring pigs
for early fall marketing. His rec
concentrations include:
l. Provide plenty of shade. Straw
covered frames may substitute for
trees.
! 2. Keep pigs on good pastures.
Barnes said pigs on rotation pas
ture are less likely to pick up par
asiteS.
| 3. Always provide clean. cool
water.
| 4. Use self-feeders to save time
and provide supplements with
grain.
\ 5. Obtain a veterinarian's dag.
nosis when disease symptoms ap-
| pear.
Barnes warned swine growers
:, that the rush of summer work and
labor shorages often prevents pigs
from getting proper care.

Chet Jadwisiak has tickled our
palate with basket of Orione
peaches. Everybody in the office
including visitors have been en-.
joying their delicious goodness.
Several folks have asked about
the number of different jobs Dick
Wilson is holding down. Some say
they read where he was an "in-
cinerator Others say it was an
''instigator" Dick says his job is
artificially breeding cows to the
best bulls in the world. Those
bulls, Dick continues, are owned
by the farmers. They are housed
in Tiffin at the Northern Ohio
Breeders Assn.

On August 3 I visited the new
northwest experiment farm near
Hoytville in Wood County. This
farm replaces the experiment

Grasshoppers Can
Damage Crops

Toxaphane is the preferred in
secticide for treating legume seed
crops for grasshoppers according
to 7. H. Parks.
Grasshoppers are most numerous
in southwestern Ohio counties.
There are no more than normal
numbers of them in the rest of the
state says the extension entomo-
logist.
In addition to toxaphane, chlor-
dane, aldrin, benzene hexachloride
and parathion also are effective.
Parathion and BHC are the most
toxic to bees.
Notify the nearest beekeepers
before you treat or avoid spraying
while the crop is in bloom" Parks
warns farmers. He suggests treat
ing border areas before grasshop-
pers get into corn, soybeans, to-
bacco or canning tomatoes.

nor the expected date of their ar
rival at a United States port.
Press releases will carry this in
formation prior to the service
mans arrival in the United States.
and it is expected that all service
men will have an opportunity to

to their departure from Korea.
If a repatriate is ill. the hospi-

RED CROSS AIDS PRISONERS
BEING RELEASED IN KOREA

A team of 70 representatives of
Red Cross societies of 9 United
Nations is now at work with the
United Nations military and the
North Korean Chinese counterpart
in prisoner repatriation. The 8
United Nations are Australia,
Canada, Denmark, Great Britain,
Netherlands, Philippines, Repub-
lie of Korea, Turkey, and United
States. All members of this 70
man team have been in the Far
East since mid-June being trained
and awaiting the truce agreement.
This team is headed by an Amer
ican Red Cross staff member and
includes Is from the American
Red Cross staff. James T. Nichol-
son, American Red Cross Execu-
tive Vice-president, now in the
Far East, is working with H. L..
Janeway, American Red Cross Di-
rector for the Far East, directing
Red Cross services to American
repatriates.
According to the Armistice
agreement, an equal number from
each side is now visiting POW
camps, assisting POWs enroute to
and at the exchange point in the
demilitarized zone by providing
humanitarian welfare services.
The Red Cross staff includes a
number of doctors, who are to
render any necessary medical care
during the exchange and prior to
the transfer of the prisoners to
the United Nations command.
These joint Red Cross teams
will not be concerned with POWs
not desiring repatriation. Those
prisoners are the responsibility of
a CuSt0dial Commission comprised
Of representatives of the govern
mentS of Czechoslovakia, Poland.
India, Sweden, and Switzerland.
Essential humanitarian Red Cross
services for POWs in custody of
this commission will be provided
by the Indian Red Cross in accord
with the Armistice agreement.
Services to repatriates includes
distribution of the famous Red
Cross ditty bags, toilet articles,
writing materials, cigarettes, and
reading matter.
American Red Cross will also
pay the cost of a 5O-word radio.
gram home for each American re-
patriate. Messages will be taken at
Korean reception areas, then
flown to Tokyo for transmission
to the United States, since no
commercial facilities are available
in Korea. These personal radio
grams are reaching families about
three days after the POW crosses
the Panmunjom demarcation line.
In addition, the Red Cross will
provide free telephone service for
calls home wherever facilities per
nit. Sick and wounded POWs hos.
pitalized in Tokyo can phone
home from there for 4 minutes at
American Red Cross expense, but
those embarking at Inchon must
await arrival on our West Coast
