Life in the Country
Calf Leorns to Drink Milk, But It's
The Hurd Way for Both Him and Teacher

There are several theories
about how best to raise a calf
but believe in the one that
takes the smallest amount Of
work.
That is why I've been teach
ing our new calf to drink milk
out of a bucket. I know what
the experts say. They tell me
that a calf should be fed from a
nipple pail or a bottle. Then it
gets the milk in the right stom-
ach and will do much better.
I used to keep our calves on
nipple pals and spend a lot Of
time washing out the nipples and
getting the milk out of all of the
hard-to-get places in the pail.
With this calf I decided I
would just teach the calf to
drink and that would be the
end of it.
Now, some calves will start out
drinking right away, while others
never seem to get the idea. This
new calf is sort of an in-between
one. It took two or three days
before he got on to this drink
ing business.
And those two or three days
were messy ones. I ended up
every time with more milk on
me than got inside the calf. But
I persisted. and with hunger as
my ally, finally got him started.
He still is a little vague about
where the milk is. He knows
there is milk in the offing when
he sees me coming, but he seems
to think it is up in the air
somewhere.
I have to let him have one of
my fingers, and then gradually
lower his head into the bucket.
After he gets going, slip my
finger out of his mouth and he
keeps gulping down the milk un-
til he discovers there Is nothing
there to suck on. Then we start
all over again.
Meanwhile, the COW stands
outside the. shed and complains
to me during the eating process.
She is getting a little more set
tied now. and will go down in
the pasture and Craze for a part
of the day. But let the calf
baWl once or twice, and here she
comes to see what the
trouble is.
I suppose the easiest thing I
could have done was to have
left the calf with the COW. Then
I could have saved myself two
jobs-milking and feeding the
calf. And there wouldn't have
been any milk to strain inside,
! either
I got my postholes, thanks to

This mechanical age we live

Plan Commission
|Sh!!aIkI ,I|''. Asked
By Delaney Tues.

A ,shake-up loomed in the ranks
OF the city planning commission
zfter they failed to have a quorum
for the third straight meeting date
last night.
The commissioners were suppos-
ed to meet prior to the city com.
mission meeting. Several persons
with zoning problems were on hand
to appear before the commission
But when the meeting was slated
to start, the only two members to
put IN an appearance were Mrs
Rebecca Martin and chairman &c.
ell Carbonell.
The city commission then heard
the problems of those scheduled to
appear before the planning com
mission.
That prompted city commission.
er Jack Delaney to ask that steps
bs taken ITO replace those plan
ming commissioners who have been
habitually absent from meetings -
Delaney asked that the action be
taken ut the next city commission
meeting. ITS not fair to the pubic
% have them come up here and
then have the planning commission

recollection, did not read the con-
tract, but did ask Mr.. Porter if it

Adequate Representation
'.In all of our negotiations in Key
West and Marathon, the committee
was represented by more than one
member on each occasion.
I'VE suggest, for the sake of fair
ness, that the City Manager, Mr..

dence which has been exchanged
between the City and yourself and

sonally willing and happy to recon-
mend to my board of directors that
the lease Of the Simonton Street

talks akin to peeking through
Notwithstanding he says he
disapproves.
If / have any-and I don t
say I have-they will not be used
unless a distorted version of the
conversation is given out at the
other end" he added. Senator
Mccarthy said recordings can be
justified where there is fear the
other party also may be record
ing-and might doctor" the re-
corded version and make 1t
public.
Vice President Nixon said, he
will mot dodge the issues" in
tonight's speech.
But he kept his own counsel
as to the exact strategy he will
use. There was no advance text
OF his speech. He left it open for
any revision deemed necessary
up to the moment of delivery.
But he discussed his plans in a
45-minute conference yesterday
with President Eisenhower.
One congressional leader told
the Associated Press that the
Vice President probably will
name Senator Mccarthy specif-
ically in his talk. This leader
said there was no doubt that Mr..
Nixon would cite Gen. Eisenhow-
er's legislative program as the
big issue before the Nation and
would dispute the statement of
Adlai Stevenson that the ad-
ministration has embraced INC
Carthyism" as a campaign issue.
The administration line that
appeared to be emerging was
that Senator McCarthy's meth
ods OF investigating alleged
Communists are only a passing
and sometimes unfortunate
phase in the overall job of
running the Government.
Senator Duff, Republican, of
Pennsylvania. one of the Presi-
dents original 1852 supporters,
said in an interview he believes
the Presidents program is being
imperiled by the controversy over
Senator Mccarthy.
IF we don't stop this thing,
there isn't going to be any pro-
gram" Senator Duff told the AS
sociated Press. IT think the
country Is fed up with the Nc
Carthy wrangle-at least my
mail indicates it is.
Mccarthy has overshot his
mark" Senator Duff declared.
He added that the Army report
on Mr.. Cohn's activities seemed
to him to be reasonable.
Another investigation of the
military. meanwhile, was fore
cast when Chairman Jenner, Re-
publican, of Indiana, announced
the Senate Internal Security
Subcommittee will launch a pub
lie probe Wednesday Into the
handling Of Communist files by

State Department Security
Chief r. w. Scott Mcleod has

on persons about to be hired,
and on veteran State Depart
ment employees. Security checks
on each employe have been or
dered since the Republicans took

additional 100000 which the
security Office would get, $157, 300
would go for salaries of the
newly-employed group. $367. TOO
for operating expenses and $375,-

types, operating under a budget

Mcleod Borrows 100 Probers
For State Department Checks

The State Department has
borrowed 100 investigators to
help complete security checks on
all department personnel and
job applicants by June 80.
The department also is hiring
100 typistS, clerks and evaluators
to speed the work, which has
been ordered by President Eisen-
hover.
The President yesterday asked
Congress to allow the State De-
partment to spend on the Sc
curity checks 100000 which
originally was appropriated for
construction work in Germany
and Japan.
The State Department ex-
planned that some of the planned
construction work is being
dropped, and the extra funds will
be available for security work.
