Rabbits Need Aid
Against Enemies

Only one of every 10 rabbits
born this spring and summer will
live until the fall hunting season,
says R. K. Davis, extension spe-
cialist at Ohio State University.
Davis says natural controls that
keep rabbits from overrunning the
earth are too efficient. "There are
not enough rabbits left by fall to
provide sufficient sport for Ohio's
million hunters
He suggests some practices by
which farmers and others can help
keep few more rabbits alive for
the hunting season: Avoid burning
sod and brushy cover areas. Delay
moving bitches, fence rows, water
ways and other grassy areas until
mid-AuguSt. Make brush piles and
plant multiflora rose to provide
protection from other animals.
Davis says rabbits are favorite
food for many animals. Automo-
blles kill many rabbits on roads.
Moving machines account for some
more.
Mamma rabbit is a careless
homemaker," he adds. "She nests
in shallow depression in some
grassy area. During wet weather,
the nest fills with water and many
young rabbits drown
If man helps in spring and sum
mer, few more of the 20 young
rabbits produced in four litters by
each pair of adults may live until
fall.

Hay Silage Saves
Winter Feed Costs

Putting meadow crops in a silo
is the best way to preserve feed
nutrients. Hay preserved as silage
in the next few weeks will cut
feed costs next winter and in
crease production. This was the
latest word from the Agricultural
Extension Office, Oak Harbor.
In a comparison of methods to
save the feed nutrients in hay it
was found over a ten year period
that silos saved 88%. Field cured
hay saved only 4O96 of feed nu-
trients. Now curing saved 1870.
High quality ensilage depends
mostly on time of cutting. Most
folks in Ottawa County will ensile
either straight legumes or legumes
with little grass. Legumes alone
should be cut from beginning of
bloom to full bloom. When grass
is in the mixture cut when
legumes are in early bloom.
Many times the crop must wait
past full blom till corn and soy
beans are planted. Late cut crops
can't make the best feed.
Whiting for a short time increas.
es feed value and reduces juices.
Too much willing may increase
spoilage. Other treatments include
addition of ground corn, molasses,
and sulfur dioxide.
Careful distribution, tight pack
ing and protection of the top sur
face will aid in making good sill
age. Further details can be secur-
ed from leaflets Lib by calling

Expects More
Milk Next Year

Dairy production probably will
be as high or higher this year than
in 1852 says Frederick A. Hughes,
extension economist at Ohio State
University.
Even through dry weather, rigid
cow culling and shifts to other en-
terprises or industrial jobs by some
dairy farmers could reduce this
years milk supply, Hughes says
dairy farmers should assume there
will be more dairy products.
There are at least three things
individual dairymen can do to
maintain net income even if total
production does 60 up.
Feed costs account for about SO
percent of the total cost of pro.
ducing milk" Hughes points out
"There is real opportunity to cut
these costs by producing more
good hay, silage and pasture and
by feeding less expensive grains. ~
More fertilizer and lime will add
to dividends from this cheaper
feed.
Labor makes up about 80 per.
cent of milk production costs. Dairy
farmers can reduce the hours of
labor per cow. Saved labor may be
applied to a job that will pay
more. 1t also could be used to care
for more cows.
Investment costs are the third
item efficient farmers will check
this year. Hughes says, ''These can
be reduced by producing more
pounds of milk with the same in
vestment or facilities. The merits
of any additional investments
should be studied rather thorough
ly to be sure costs will not exceed
returns"
The economist also advised
farmers to get behind their CO.
operatives. Cooperatives need sup
port in moving milk to deficit
areas, bargaining for fair prices
and advertising milk.

NOTES FROM OTTAWA
COUNTY AGENT
FRED CRINlp

Crops look especially good
throughout the county. Occasional
ly we see hay field with a sickly
yellow color and of course wonder
what caused the trouble. Soil tests
gives some of the answers but not
always.
Wheat is one of the crops that
has done exceptionally we'll. A
great many folks who applied ex-
ira nitrogen in the spring now
wish it were back in the bag.
Wheat is going down and some say
it might get back up. Some say
the nitrogen thing has been over
sold. Others ask, ''How can we
ever grow rs bushels of wheat if
it goes down when you put on
nitrogen?" l feel the nitrogen
story is a trifle overdone. How
ever, don't blame the nitrogen
entirely. Remember that it takes
complete fertilizers to do the job.
Perhaps some potash would have
stiffened the straw and kept the
wheat from going down. You folks
who sought my advice will remem-
ber said to go slow with nitro
gen on wheat. And I'm not saying
/ told you so. Just remember to
apply complete fertilizers.
Several oats fields on sand y
ground are showing yellowish
spots typical of manganese def
cheney. If that is definitely the
trouble spray of maganese sui
phate will correct the condition in
a weeks time. Call us if you have
suspicious yellow spots in the new
oats fields.
We have sent all dairy farmers
and cattle feeders on our mailing
list the latest information about
making hay Silage. This is the feed
that saves you money. Hurry now
to start putting up hay silage-
soon!
Last winter on our county silage
tour we heard several farmers tell
how silage cut production costs
and increased production. Hay cut
early and properly ensiled will
preserve 1870 of its feed nutrients.
Perhaps you don't have silo but
would like to do better job of
haymaking.
If so, see us for leaflets Liz
and L-20, new leaflets on siloS and
silage are LIZ and Lib.

Second in a Series)

Occupational testing and coun-
selling are important functions and
a public service rendered by the
Port Clinton office of the Ohio
State Employment Service. hese
services are available to all appli-
cants for work who can benefit
from such functions.
Although occupantional testing
and vocation counseling are pro-
vided to all applicants, the schools
throughout the area more and
more each wear recognize and take
advantage of this type of job guild
ance which in the past has proved
to be of considerable benefit to
members of the senior classes, par
ticularly those contemplating en-
tering the labor market after grad
uation.
Testing and counseling are given
by the local OSES office in coop
Grafton with the guidance teachers
of the various participating high
schools. Both testing and counsel
ing may be given right in the high
schools by Employment Service
Test Examiners and Counselors.
Occupational testing is based up
on the principle of individual diff
ferences = that individuals differ
not only in degree of occupan-
tional skill that has already been
acquired, but also in their poten-
tialities for readily acquiring skill
in a given occupation-and in the
fact that these differences can be
measured.
A real test of an individuals oc-
cupational skill or ability, would
of course be a trial in the job it.
self. Since that would be uneco-
nomical, every effort is made to
obtain as much information as pos
sible before placement, as to
whether the applicant is likely to
be successful on the job. The func-
tion of the tests is to supply some
of the information.
One of the objectives of the oc-
cupational tests is to offer sup.
porting information when the en-
ployment interview does not fully
answer the questions about appli-
cants. Tests are standardized means
for evaluating the applicants abili-
ties by comparing him with per-
sons successfully employed.
Certain tests aid in selecting in
dividuals for jobs which require
no previous training or experience
and where the applicant will learn
through on-the-job training or in
vocational training course. Other
tests aid in selecting persons for
! jobs which require various levels
of proficiency. Those are tests OF
ability to performe a job or tests
Of knowledge about a job.
Aptitude test batteries are con
siderer as measures of potentiality
They are for use in connection with
the selection of applicants for re-
ferral to training courses or to job
openings for which neither train
ing or experience is required
Their purpose is to serve as an aid
in selecting those persons who
have the potentialities for readily
learning the job and developing
into proficient workers.
The local Ohio State Employ
ment Service office considers i
just as much its responsibility Il
help a worker to choose a suitable
| job as to help the employer choos
the right worker for a job. TIL
satisfactory matching of men an
jobs, goal of the OSES, cannc
be achieved without skillful coul
selling for those individuals wh
have not yet reached satisfactor
vocational adjustment. Many ind
