are deep enough to be in contact
with moist earth continuously,
and that cables from buildings

but 1 found out I'll have to pay

will be training under the Korean

and each operates differently. Un-
der the Korean CT Bill, you pay
all training expense yourself. But
you get a single monthly allow

REFERENDUM
ON MARKETING
Farmers To Vote on Market
ing Quota For 1855
Crop On July %
NINE POLLING PLACES

On July 20, at nine different
polling places, wheat growers of
Kent County will vote for or
against marketing quotas for the
1855 crop. The referendum, ac-
cording to ]. Leon Tarburton of
the Kent County Agricultural
Sterilization and Conservation
Committee, will determine wheth-
er or not the quota program now
in effect will continue for next
years crop. Two-thirds of those
who vote must approve quotas be-
fore they can be put into opera
ton. The current program, which
was voted on a year ago, was
approved by 81 percent of the
voters -39O,221 to 57,536. Mr..
Tarburton, Chairman of the Com
mittee urges every eligible wheat
grower in Kent County to vote. A
producer is eligible to vote if he
will have more than Is acres of
wheat on his farm for harvest in
1855. In other words, he can vote
af he would be affected directly
by quotas, which apply only to
farms with more than Is acres
of wheat. If quotas are approved,
there will be marketing penalties
on any "excess" wheat-produced
outside the acreage allotment
and the full level of price support
authorized for 1855 will be avail
able for those who comply with
their allotments. If quotas are
not approved, there will be no
quotas or marketing penalties,
and price support for those who
stay within their allotments will
be at so percent of parity.

MORE STORAGE
In FREEZERS
1t Is Wise To Buy Foods
When You Can Take Ad-
vantage of Special Prices
ADD BEEF CUTS

Are you making the most of
your home freezer? It's wise to
buy foods when you can take ad-
vantage of special prices. Today
with plentiful supplies of beef COM
ing to market, you'll wisely add
to your freezer quantity of beef
cuts. When packaging meat for
freezing, have it cut the right size
for your family meals or for guest
meals. Clearly mark each package
accordingly so you quickly choose
it from the freezer. It's highly i'm
portant that you wrap meat so
that air cannot reach the meat
surface. A number of wrappings
on the market may be used. If you
purchase meat from elf-service
market may be used. If you pur-
chase meat from self-service
market unwrap it, then place in
regular freezing wrappings before
freezing.
Defrosting
According to meat expert Reba
Stages, frozen meat may be de-
frosted before cooking, defrost
either in the refrigerator or at
room temperature and the size,
Chunky pieces take longer period
than thin cuts. Wrapped frozen
meat, likewise, takes longer than
wrapped meat. When preparing a
frozen roast you can estimate
cooking time by allowing approxi-
mately 1-3 to 1-2 again as long as
those which have been defrosted
Steaks or chops to be coated with
batter or with crumbs should be
defrosted before cooking. Thick
frozen steaks and chops must be
broiled more slowly than defrosted
steaks or chops in order that the
meat will be cooked to the done
ness desired without becoming toe
brown on the outside.
